79-27 Meeting in "Aristotle"

Deus X Machina III was to come over the "Island Base" in "Aristotle".

The arrival time will be around 9 o'clock in the evening.

It is not difficult to be seen, but it also means to avoid a lot of troubles.



Shortly before the appointment time.

Ann, Cher and Hahn left the [Island Base] and were in the middle of the island... at the smallest point.

The sky is already dark and the stars are blinking.

“Chel, what do you know about flying vehicles?”

When Ann asks Cher,

It's a balloon.

The answer came back.

"Mainly hot air balloons, right?It seemed that it was being considered to use a gas that was lighter than air, but it was difficult to gather it. ”

I see, I see.

Regardless of the name hydrogen or helium, Anne thought that the presence of light gases was known.

Anyway, Cells know the "flying vehicle".

"I didn't see it, but when I dealt with the [Giggles Reform] from [Isaac], it came with a huge flying object, right?"

"That's right.... Ah, here we are."

Black shadows approaching from beyond the night sky.

It's getting bigger and bigger.

"Ah, that's..."

"It's Makina-sama's [Aristotle]." It's 100 meters long. "

"100......"

Cher is overwhelmed by its size.

The shock is different between what I know and what I actually see.

The flight object, which was 100 meters long and 20 meters wide, felt intimidating.

"Deus Ex Machina III who will build such a thing... wouldn't he be able to conquer the world if he wanted to?"

"Maybe so."But Makina-sama isn't interested in that kind of thing. "

“Not interested?”

"Yes, I'm sorry to bother you, but I think it's 'troublesome'."

"It's troublesome... I see. Governance must be troublesome indeed."

Do you understand?

"I understand that it is troublesome.However, I'm not sure that this is a troublesome way to compare it with world dominance... ”

“In short, I want to do what I want to do when I want to.”

"I see... but even if I become a ruler, I can still do whatever I want with my subordinates... yes, I can leave it to my magic mind, automatic dolls (automata) and golems."

"...... you're the first one to take that view"

And Anne looked up at the sky,

"Aristotle is coming down."Makina-sama will be the person in charge. "



There was no landing place on the island, so the gondola was unloaded from Aristotle.

All of Anne's rides are sturdy, not too frightening.

Three people (body) can be pulled up onto the ship accordingly.

"This is... amazing. I don't think I had this idea 700 years ago."

Cher is impressed.

"... ahh, I really wanted to show it to Arnott-sama..."

You admire that person, don't you?

"Yes, I am the 'maker' and the 'supreme master (arc master)'."

"I envy you a little."

"...... Miss Ann?"

"Since I am a mass production machine, there is no one who can call me 'Creator'"

……

Ah, but I'm sorry to hear that.

"Miss Ann....."

Ah, I'm almost there.

The gondola with three people on board was just drawn into "Aristotle".

There, the "Deus Ex Machina III" accompanied by the Servant Knight Ray was waiting.

"Welcome to Aristotle."

"... are you the [Deus Ex Machina III]?"

"Yes, call me Machina."

Well then, I'll call you Makina-sama.

Hmm. First, let's move the place.

Machina III guided the party to the cabin and recommended a chair.

Cher and Ann sat in their chairs, but Hahn stood still.

"Did you say...... Hahn over there?"Sit down. The chair won't break.I don't feel comfortable standing there alone. "

"... it looks like your servant is still standing?"

Sure enough, the Servant Horseman Ray remained standing diagonally behind Machina III.

"Sure.... Well, I'd say you can do as you please... but I wonder if your right ankle is accumulating some damage?"

To this point, Hahn was surprised.

"Well...... I'm sure you're right, but how did you know?"

Machina III gives the reason as a matter of course.

"No, you can tell by looking."The center of gravity was shifted to the left by about 0.15 percent, and the way the legs came out was slower by about 0.08 percent.The way I kicked my right toe was weaker than the way I kicked my left.And that's because the rattling is starting to occur in the ankle joint. "

"Hmm... that's all I can say."Indeed, it is time for me to overhaul.I was hoping this mission would be over. "

Shall we fix it now?

"Hmm... this is an attractive proposal, but let's not do it."We haven't formed an alliance yet. "

"Very well.... now let's talk about the previous stages of the alliance."Who is your spokesman? "

Well then, I'll do it.

It seems that Cell will also represent the negotiations this time.

"Okay.... let's hear it first." What are you going to do to this world...? "

"What do you hear?"... in the meantime, I'm going to collect something that shouldn't be in this world. "

[Fana] and [Hinting Magic Tool]?

"That's right... it looks like you've collected the" "Gigas Reform" "". "

"Hmm. I won't deny it.... but you don't want to interfere in the world today, do you? "

Yes.

Cher nodded.

“I don't want to over-interfere, but I want the help of the people who live in the world today.”

I see.

That was a sufficiently convincing reason and reminiscent of Cell's "conscience" or "ethos".

“Very well, but as far as I'm concerned, I can't dispel one concern.”

What's that?

"The people you called 'demons'... how do you perceive the existence of the 'Northern Nation'?"
