Magi Craft Meister

When John = Old you put your strength into it, the door opened with a slight glimmer.

It was dark inside, but the lights automatically lit when the door closed. It's the light of the Magic Guide lamp.

(You're a little flirty. maintenance doesn't seem to be done properly)

And I went further back, that's when.

"This!?

A magic formation emerged at my feet for such a short time that I would not have been able to sense it if I had been human. That's familiar to you, old man.

"Warp Gate!"

John disappeared in an instant.

"This place..."

(Near the center of the giant desert to the west of the Harihari desert, right?)

Old Penglai was using a magic detector (Magilader) to find John's flying destination for a short time.

"... who came there..."

A weak voice was heard from the darkness in the back. John switches his vision to infrared.

There was a shadow in the back of the room. Sitting in a fine euthanasia chair.

But as we approached, it became clear that it was called 'being'.

It was an automatic doll.

"My name is John Diney. The chief, Hiro, told me to come here. Just ask me what to do here."

"... yes, now you..."

"Quick, do you mind if I turn on the lights?

"... yeah, go ahead"

Though it can be seen in infrared light, there should still be normal light for detailed observation. John created one Ball of Light (Lightball).

in a room that brightens up at once.

"... It's been a long time since the lights broke down..."

Automatic doll (Automata) whining with a fine voice.

"So what am I supposed to do?

Although I can give you an approximate idea, you can't still not ask.

"... please fix me..."

The answer to that was what John = Old You expected.

"… I am an automatic doll (Automata) …. … has existed for quite some time now… it is hurting all over my body…"

If you look under the bright light, you'll know exactly how it is.

Originally it would have been a beautiful feminine shape, but the hair has almost fallen out and one eye has fallen off, resulting in a vain orbit.

The magic skin (magical skin) had lost its elasticity and was cracking everywhere.

Clothes seem like nothing at first glance, but if you look closely, the fiber is already melted, the more dust you move, the more likely you are to become.

Maybe he was also in a dark place to prevent degradation by light.

"... last time... I had it serviced... about seventy years ago... Still can't fix my body...... I stayed to repair my vocal function......"

Old man remembers Anne, whom Jen once found and repaired.

She was made more than 300 years ago and, as a result of her abandonment, she was malfunctioning.

The automatic doll (Automata) sitting in front of him was maintained several times, even if the intervals were empty. Still, deterioration was inevitable.

"Excuse me, but how many years ago were you made? And who are you?

"... roughly... I remember 1100 years ago... suppose this is 3457..."

Old man was shocked, 1100 years ago.

Automatic dolls (Automata) made in an era older than Jen's predecessor, Adriana Barbora Zezzi.

"... I... 'Wise Man (Magus)', inherited the knowledge of Shuki Tsetsi... is what I tell the people of Mitsuho... my name is... Akitsu..."

Shuki Tsetsi. Knowledge from Jen has no such name. but Adriana Barbora Tsetsi may be the person on the fringe, the old man thought.

"Sage (Magus) Shuki Tsetsi, is it? What was it like? Is that better for you?

"... no, because that person could not use engineering magic... your apprentice made me..."

"Really? … this is rude, let me examine your body first"

Now that he decides that fixing the automatic doll in front of him (Automata) is a higher priority than talking, John turns it down and touches Akitsu.

Then, unexpected words came from Akitsu.

"... Oh, are you...? You also... Automatic Doll (Automata)...?"

Surprisingly, that automatic doll called Akitsu (Automata) instantly discovered that John was also an automatic doll (Automata).

The old man was impressed that it was not Dada who inherited knowledge.

So I decided to be honest with you. No matter how it fell, the automatic doll in front of it (Automata) was not thought to be a threat.

Instead, he thought being honest would help him get a lot more information out.

At this point, it is very similar to Jen's where there is no choice to stop the automatic doll (automata) and force it to draw knowledge.

"That's right. I am an automatic doll (automata) made by my producer"

Akitsu, who heard it, returned the answer in a manner that impressed him.

"... Again... you have the most talented magician (Magismith) in the world today... So what is your purpose...?

"Let's be honest. It's about looking into this' Mitsuho 'country. Rumor has it that this country is about to attack our home country."

To this word Akitsu shook his neck slightly to the side.

"... it can't be... I've never suggested anything like that..."

"But you have a record that about 300 years ago, you attacked me, right?

Akitsu then became silent and said that he seemed to be thinking of something, but eventually did not think he would open his mouth.

"... in those days... there has been a drastic decrease in free magic hormones (ethers) full of space... so I... had a malfunction for a time... for about ten years..."

There is no doubt about Aether Stampede, an exorcism, the old man decided.

"... and... since then... I can no longer move..."

And Akitsu said that the people of Mitsuho, who knew about her suspension, were looking for magicians (Magismith) who could fix it, for the countries of the east - the Empire of Shouro and small groups of countries.

That doesn't contradict the reason I heard this before, because the magic guide is no longer available...

If that is true, then the matter of Akitsu must be repaired.

John carefully examined Akitsu's body.

"Due to the good state of preservation, the damage to the control nucleus (control core) is minor. Nor has the corrosion of the skeleton progressed any further than I thought. But there's no other way to replace the pseudobiotic tissue, the magical skin and the magical muscle."

"... but you won't get the material..."

Akitsu is right. In Mitsuho, where magic engineering is underdeveloped, no material has ever been distributed to repair more advanced automated dolls (automata).

"You're right. Then one more thing. If you do not replace the Magnetic Converter (Ether Converter), it will cause malfunction at the current Free Magnetic (Ether) concentration."

"... and the Magnetic Converter (ether converter)... is that right..."

Penglai is now using the Magic Reactor, but until a short while ago it was a magic converter (ether converter).

Compared to that, it is also primitive, and from that point of view, the old man was convinced that Aquitsu was an automated doll (Automata) of an era older than Adriana Barbora Tsetsi.

"... you mean to say that my role is over..."

Akitsu closing his remaining eyes. How thoughtless the word was.

……

Old man was thinking.

John's automatic doll (Automata) is too valuable. It is not good to let it decay like this.

On the other hand, there is no guarantee that it will not be hostile to Penglai if repaired. Because some knowledge also outweighs you.

It is safest and most profitable to let it decay like this, take out its control nucleus (control core) after the operation stops, and suck up the information.

(But your husband (My Road)...)

If Jen finds out, he'll probably mourn and grieve. Because that's what Jen is.

In conclusion, I decided to report to Jen and turn to him for judgment.

On Lake Wass, it was the day the naval flagship Bernstein departed for the sea after a series of test voyages.

Although there were fine modifications and additions to the equipment, it was a good result to say that it was a great success.

The crew has also completed a stretch of training and has managed to dress up.

"From this, then, 'Bernstein' goes out into the sea through the waterway. So for two days, if we have made a final confirmation, we are finally leaving for the kingdom of Elias. This is my country's first attempt, not to mention a small group of countries!

The captain's rhetoric has been given and he is finally leaving the port. Jen, Reiko, Elsa and Edgar view from the sky on an airship. The prime minister and the magic tech minister are from the hot air balloon we've been on. Reinhardt and Christoph watched from the shore, respectively, the doorstep of the newly-built ship Bernstein.

"Departure!"

Later added equipment, 'whistling', Bernstein slowly left the pier.

Nearby residents drop it off at the grand total.

Jens had dropped it off from the sky, too.

At that time, you contacted me.

"Father, old man wants to talk to you as soon as possible."

"Hmm? What is it? That's unusual."

Jen grabbed the caller to talk on the aircraft-equipped Magnetic Communicator (Manacam) because it was on the sky.
