Magi Craft Meister

03-16 Final start

The next day was also a sunny day, an excellent competition day.

After breakfast, Jen and Marcia hold their last meeting in front of the competition venue.

"The ship is as maintenance-free as possible, so I don't think things have changed."

"Yeah, I believe in gin there."

"So, there's an operation or something?

"Oh. From what I've seen of this year's course, it's a technical stage around getting out of the bay. So I'm going to keep it down until we get through there."

Double torso ships have a hard time lacking agile athleticism. That's where the operator's arm is.

"Right. If you start, it's up to Marcia, you can do whatever you want."

When Jen said so, Marcia offered her right hand,

"Jin, thank you for staying with me so much. It's good to see you that day."

Jen shakes that hand back. There's nothing more Jen can do.

"Oh, come on"

"Well, then, I'm coming"

And Marcia turned her back on Jen, and inadvertently stopped and turned, wondering if she had walked a couple of steps,

"This bathing suit was superfluous."

With that said, Marcia headed to the harbor.

Jen, just like yesterday, went to a seat for the staff.

For this reason, Reinhardt and Valentino, the mentally handicapped man, are so-called VIP seats specially set up for nobility. On the other hand, there are not many seats filled for the staff, and they are difficult.

"I wonder why you're available"

It's better than it's crowded, but Jen appropriately chooses a seat and sits down. Next door is Reiko.

"Oh, look forward to it."

So grumbling Jen,

"Our team has decided to win"

Reiko says. but Jen,

"No, the battle is also called luck of time, and I don't know what will happen. That's why it's funny."

That's what I said and leaned against the back of the chair.

"Come on, the final we've been waiting for has gone on!

It was time and the voice of reality echoed. The audience seats are also in more than yesterday.

"You can also see Dominique de Florenciano, Lord of the Southern Province of Zaus in the kingdom of Areas, where my Potrok is located, in today's final match!

Shortly after that reality, the female lord waved from the highest VIP seat.

"Again this year, we have 14 fast boats, no less than any other. Who's going to win? Final race, coming soon!

Fourteen ships were exiting the sport-only dock and slowly proceeding through the bay to assemble at a determined starting point.

"A golem boat manipulated by a beautiful woman dressed in a colorful swimsuit. Which ship stands at its apex? Check that out in your eyes!

Higher cheer at first sight.

"Hey, the customers are thriving, too."

"Right. We have also received reports that the design of this year's swimsuit has increased the audience by 20%"

Since then, one-piece swimsuits have become a staple of this tournament.

"All ships, it looks like we're ready to start. Now the countdown to the start has begun!

The audience seats quiet as they hit the water, in the meantime, only the voice of the countdown sounds quiet.

"... 5. 4. 3. 2. 1. Start!"

Sent to a cheer full of cracks, fourteen ships started.

The first one to pop up was Zeke 1, "Glory of Elias". Followed by Zeke 3, Blue Sea (Blue Marine). And Zeke 28, Seabird (Seabird).

Marcia's riding signal (Swan) is currently seventh.

"You're a little late."

Booshiri and Jen mutter. At the start, he had trouble avoiding his neighbor's ship and was slightly delayed.

"In the midst of a mixed war, the double-torso ships may be slightly disadvantaged."

Signus (Swan), a double-torso ship that is slightly poorly slipped, is currently in seventh place because he had to slow down because he didn't want to hit the boat's body or anything.

"As expected, Mr. Bernardo, you're out of number one and three."

The commentator is the same as yesterday.

"Well, as far as qualifying goes, that's fair. It's number 28 you're putting on third, and it looks like you got through the mess at the start well"

"Zeke 35 is delayed, though?

"As far as yesterday's chase, I think we have a chase ahead of us. You'll be looking forward to it."

As expected in that commentary, Marcia increased her speed as she exited the bay where the harbour was located and into the wide waters.

"Whoa, Zeke 35, did you spar?

Marcia leaves 6th and 5th without a gobo and fleshes to 4th Zeke No. 10.

Around it, it becomes difficult to confirm with the naked eye, and the video shown on the magic projection window (magic screen) is relied upon.

"You still came out, as Mr. Bernardo expected."

"Yeah, number 35 is still fast. Out in the open sea, there will be fewer obstacles, demonstration of strength, etc."

As it was, Signus (Swan) left Zeke No. 10 and surfaced in fourth place. The race then enters the second stage.

The second stage is a rocky reef zone between the unmanned island 'Io' with a turning point.

"Zeke 1 is now at the top into the rocky reef zone! This is followed by Zeke 3, and Zeke 28, 35, 10, 18."

"There's also a reef over there, so it's important to be agile."

It is far from the highest speed because we have to bypass the rock reef and avoid the reef.

Zeke 1 is a veteran ship operator's leachet, but he hasn't been able to take advantage of the powerful golem propulsion.

Zeke 3, Elsa manipulates the ship at risk and Lorelei responds well to it.

Zeke 28 capitalizes on the mobility of its four-armed oar and rudder combination to successfully advance the rocky reef zone.

And Zeke 35, Marcia, was pleased that the golem arrow speed increase or decrease could be done as desired.

"That's Gin! You can go with this!

Autonomous golems, their slaves (master slaves) were able to communicate subtle additions and subtractions well.

This is due to the effect of magic conduction through surface treatment (saff treatment) applied by Jen to the hull.

The slightest magic anyone has, Marcia's, which is transmitted through the hull to Arrow.

If subtle acceleration or deceleration is possible, it compensates for the low mobility.

But not everyone does.

"Ah, Zeke 34, contact the rock reef! Looks like the boat's body is damaged. Apparently I'll abstain."

Several ships exited that could not avoid the rock reef. Some of them sink.

"Again! Zeke 16, I couldn't avoid the rock reef, I hit the boat body! Ah, it's sinking! Is the ship operator all right?

A boat of tournament officers waiting at the scene rushed to help the operator.

"The swimsuit is unbroken! Shipper, are you all right!?

The rescue scene will be shown on the Magic Screen (Magic Screen). At that time, the torn operator of the swimsuit was also shown, and it was the same sight in any world that the men in the audience were cheering.

"The leading group has just broken through the rocky reef zone! Top is Zeke 1, and Zeke 3! Continues with Zeke 28, 35!

"You didn't seem to cover the first ranking. Well, it's hard to outrun in that zone, so it's a natural consequence. but Zeke 28 and 35 are packing the difference between Zeke 1 and 3"

In the end, four Zeke 34, 2, 16 and 12 vessels were to abstain in the second stage, the Reef Zone.

The third stage is the outer sea, the speed stage with nothing to block.

All ships can achieve the highest speed they can hold. Aim is the 'io' of a deserted island. That's the turning point.

"Zeke three, I sparred! Fast, fast! Do you want to line up for Zeke 1? Ahh, Zeke 1 increases speed even more!

It was thought Elsa would pull out, but Leiche would also accelerate the golem further, sickening at sea while keeping the top.

"Zeke 28 and 35 have also increased their speed!

It could also be seen from the audience through the Magic Screen.

"Marcia, don't do it"

"Yes, we use our magical connection to Arrow well"

Jen and Reiko watched it with peace of mind.

"At last, it's the outer sea."

"Yes, slightly, but there are waves."

"It won't be a problem because it's a double-torso ship around there. I wonder if Marcia will spar from here?

Golem boats rushing east. It leaves a white wave and disappears across the horizon. Its speed is approximately 30 km/h. Because I don't use knots in this world.

Then it seems to have been replaced by another Magic Eye (Magic Eye), and now I see a top group moving towards the Magic Projection Window (Magic screen).

"Whoa, Marcia's going up to third."

The screen showed the signal (swan) and Marcia in the swimsuit that piloted it. Jen thought that Marcia must have more approaches from both men after the competition, etc.

"Father!

If Jen thinks that there is no such benefit, Reiko suddenly makes a nervous voice.

"What's up, Reiko?

"... I feel magic"
