Linsey was not a top student majoring in nuclear physics.
But fortunately, the benefits of compulsory education had not yet been completely cast from his mind.
So Linsey could still give a rough explanation of the concept of a nuclear power plant.
Across from Linsey, after hearing the explanation about nuclear power plants, the consciousness within the Calculation Core became emotional. Even its tone carried feelings toward its Creator:
"Nuclear energy, an incomparably powerful source of energy."
"If there were still deposits of this ore here, we would not need to rely on these dangerous spacetime currents. We could instead steadily produce suitable energy."

Linsey shook his head and replied with the attitude of an Awakened:
"Uranium Ore can provide extremely powerful energy, but it is indeed rare."
"And all of this rests on the skills of the Awakened. We may not be able to obtain the materials, but perhaps we can approach this problem from another angle."
"..."

Almost at the same time, the Puppet Maid caught up from behind.
Rota said, "Mr. Linsey, we had never considered the line of thought you mentioned before."
Linsey tried to make his tone sound curious:
"You never considered it
