It's pretty interesting if you think about it, we can easily (more or less) learn basic chemistry since we have teachers that have had courses on both teaching itself and the materials they are teaching, alongside textbooks and a basis of years of schoolwork, going up from basic concepts up to physics and chemistry.
But if you try to teach what you can remember without a refresher or materials to a person with no such basis, passing it as second hand trivia, it would really take a genius to comprehend the so called 'truth' of this world.

Scientifically integrating molecules with spells do sound interesting (tho I’d talk to that one inventor girl to prioritize like a toilet)

lol I want tofu now tho I usually have it fried

 

[HaikenEdge]

Isn't integrating science into magic basically what the mage girl character did in Gate?

Rudeus did it too in Mushoku Tensei, magically creating a self-sustaining cloudburst that didn't require mana to maintain it.

So did Shin in Kenja no Mago, though his application was more destructive. He essentially created a mana powered Particle Beam spell.

something unexplained science something magic

Its always kinda nice to see what they all did after the war and how much Impart they had on Sociéty but its also funny how like the narrator for it are all like THE SUPER TRUTH OR WHO KNOWS WHAT MADE THIS HAPPEN and then we as readers know that well they had a rly nice cook who just had basic knowledge by our standards.
But also like it ely is impressive to see what the ppl after them makes like previous guy had damn movies made of him

and.....and what ??? AND WHAT ???????

All these people are benefitting from the MC, I can only hope he gets something for himself too. Maybe he gets to go back home or something.

inb4 he left no legacy and no one knows of him other then hints here and there by the famous people who changed history about how there was this amazing cook who made them who they are

there was a bonus chapter/friend POV that was like "i remember that guy, he was a good cook but we never heard from him again" but i imagine after the war it'd be fairly peaceful hopefully /him opening a successful restaurant if not being a 'royal chef' for the King lol

I was gonna say page 1 gave me death flags, but the subsequent pages really made me smile

I always love it when stories do this because any one of us could go back into technologically inferior time period and still be able to come up with these ideas, but we'd never be able to use them ourselves A Genius would have to run with it.

Yes. She studied chemistry and physics as much as she could using resources at the base, and then studying materials from her visit to Tokyo. She created magical shaped charges to penetrate the thick armor of the trolls employed by the Empire.

I always like it when such thinking is used to modify and improve magical techniques. The whole feeling of "received knowledge" that magical cultures are written with is stifling.

Even a person with a good Japanese high school education would have a breadth and depth of knowledge to rival any sage or king. In the case here, knowing that the troops need to eat vegetables instead of just meat and bread can prevent incipient scurvy, which would weaken all of the fighters by degrading their connective tissue. For that matter, he would know the secrets of Algebra, Trigonometry, and maybe even some statistics or calculus. He would understand germ theory and the principles of public health, along with their application to city planning and infrastructure. He would be aware that there may be other continents beyond the seas, and that a bit of chromium can make stainless steel. Even an early steam engine would be revolutionary in a world where a mage would need to lend their attention to powering some device, tying up their time without automation.

It is well that he didn't extend his teaching to subatomic theory and nuclear reactions. A mage who can create a huge fireball "like the sun" is one thing. A mage who can build a fusion reaction from the hydrogen in the air would truly "summon the sun to the battlefield".
