Magi Craft Meister

80-11 Arnold

Ren D pointed out that the management magic mind of the "Second Underground Base" may have the memory of the engineer who made Cell, "Arnold."

On the other hand, the answer of the management magic brain,

You can say yes, you can say no.

was ambiguous.

“What do you mean? Aren't you Lord Arnold!?"

Chel asks with a slightly sad voice.

For her, the creator, Arnold, is special.

Chel, I'm not Arnold.

"...... Master Arnold......"

I told you. I'm not Arnold, no matter how much I look like him. "

"But...!"

Here, Ren D speaks again to confirm.

In continuation of what we just said, wasn't it [if the observer admitted that it existed]?

... mmm?

"Because Cher admits it, you must be Arnold for Cher."At least, it's equivalent. "

Hmm... is that it?

"That's why, for Chel, you're the maker."

……

The management magic mind persuaded by Ren D was stuck with words.

This kind of human odor reaction was often seen at the end, which is one of the reasons why Ren D speculated that the basic part of the identity or content of the managed magic brain was "Arnold".

As expected, there are only the best engineers of our time.... let's admit it, I'm a magical brain transplanted with the personality of [Arnold]. ”

I knew it.

Master Jin isn't very surprised, is he?

Yeah, I guess.

In fact, I saw several magic brains that copied the entire human consciousness, and I knew them.

Recently, he has also met eight of these "Origins".

But Cher didn't.

Lady Arnold... thank you for meeting me.

Cher, kneeling in front of the management magic mind.

'Come on, Chel, I don't want you to do that.'

"Master Arnold... but..."

"Managing magic minds... no, let me call you" Arnold "just like Cher."... Arnold, I have a suggestion. "

Looking at Cher and Arnold's interactions, Ren D, who could no longer remain silent, held her mouth shut.

Hmm... what?

"I've provided several bodies that looked like humans before for the sake of the [formerly human] magic mind.Would you like to use it too? "

”What... you can do that?”

"Master Jin! Please do!"If you recreate Lord Arnold's body, I will dedicate my loyalty!! "

But Ren D shook his head with a smile.

"No, Cher's loyalty is only to Arnold, isn't it?"You don't have to do that, I'll get Arnold's body. ”

Really! Thank you!

”... Jin-sama, why would you do that?”

"Why? I guess so... if you say so, I'd like to make friends with Arnold, who has five bodies."

To a friend...?

"Yeah, and I want to make sure Cher's feelings come true."

While saying that, Ren D glanced at Reiko, who was silently sitting next to her.

"Besides, there are cases where a human brain that has been implanted in a magic brain goes mad over a long period of time."

"Eh!? No, no, Lord Arnold!"

"It's still okay, Chel. Apparently, it was suspended until recently.Arnold seems to be in good spirits. "

"Oh, thank goodness..."

Relieved, Cher.

Jen turned to her magic mind again.

“That's right, Arnold, isn't it?”

"... um............"

As a magic brain, after an unusually long time,

Well then, let's do you a favor.

There was a response.

"All right, I'll take care of it."

Ren D nodded calmly and said, "Let's decide the specifications."

"Physical abilities are just like humans. However, you can demonstrate 10 times your ability when you have to.Let's ask Chel what she looks like. "

Yeah. We have to decide on the 'time to die' as well.

I see.

As far as I'm concerned, it's difficult to define enemies... when they're in contact with each other.

"That's right..."

How will you help your enemies?

Here, Jen remembered an old fairy tale she'd read.

"... twice as much power..."

Eh?

No, in the story I read a long time ago, there was a story called 'Double Power'.

What do you mean?

"To put it simply, it's like," You can double the power of your enemies. ""

Well, that's interesting. Did you have that ability?

"No, this is a creation."

What, is that so?... but the author's imagination is quite impressive. "

”Hmm... maybe the classics had that kind of ability... but that's not what I want to discuss right now”

Since the conversation was about to get lost, Ren D corrects the trajectory.

"Depending on the opponent... of course there is a limit... but how about the output increase?"

That's interesting.

"If it's double, it's a bit extreme, so I'll increase it by about 20%."

Not bad. Is the upper limit about ten times that of normal?

I guess that's fine.

Here, Cher, who could no longer remain silent, intercepted the words.

I'll take care of Arnold!

Haha, that's appreciated.... please do it like that, Jin-sama. "

"Ok.... Now, will you give me some data on Arnold's appearance, Cher?"

Yes.

Ren D asks Reiko to take out a magic crystal, and then he transfers the knowledge from the cherry to the "transinfo".

The data on the appearance of "Arnold", as imagined by Cell, was saved.

Would you like me to check it for you?

Ren D used "knowledge transmission (sendinfo)" and had the management magic brain confirm it.

”Hmm... it's a little beautified...”

No! This is what Lord Arnold used to be!

”Chel... I'm happy with your praise, but it's gone a little too far.”

Arnold pointed out that Cher dropped his shoulder.

"I'm sorry..."

It's fine.... Sir Jin, can you fix this?

Got it.

In this way, Ren D also obtained the appearance data for "Arnold".
