Magi Craft Meister

Fourteen days after dawn.

What to do with the container is an urgent issue.

The Klein Kingdom Investigation Team is captain Bernardo and deputy captain Gloria. The Egerea Kingdom Investigation Team is captain Bruno and Magician (Magicraftsman) Jade. And Major of the Shawlo Empire, Fritz.

The above five people were meeting face-to-face.

"Why don't we talk about distributions first, and then we decide in our respective national policies?

This is Bernardo.

"Hmm, does that make sense... as far as we're concerned, I'd like to dig a hole and just throw away the contents"

Bruno nodded with a difficult face.

"That's a shame! I guess the fact that the former Kingdom of Leonard had sealed it without throwing it away is something of considerable value. I can't believe you threw that away!

Jade disagreed.

"That makes sense again."

Fritz nods.

"The Alchemists will jump with great joy"

"But in doing so, the gold used in the container cannot be converted. Wouldn't that halve the point of bringing it back?

It was Gloria who spoke the truth.

By contrast, Jade Nephroy's opinion.

"What I don't want you to get me wrong is that I share the opinion that the liquid inside is a threat. But if you don't think about the meaning of this survey line, I'd like to say that."

"Hmm..."

Hard to conclude. This condition must have been conveyed by a magic monitor (Magi Monitor), but I don't know what's going on over there.

That was the time.

"Wow!

A voice sounded surprised.

Turning to you, one of the Klein Kingdom Survey teams stares at the knife in his hand with a blue face.

The Bernards called the man once they had stopped the meeting and found out what had happened.

"What's up, Murtaugh?

Called Murtaugh, the knight corrects his posture and begins to explain.

"After that mysterious liquid spilled, I flushed it with water, but when I wanted to go through the place, a slight smoke stood up and it also smelled strange"

Murtaugh to provide a description of the situation. Bernardo nodded and urged ahead.

"Hmm, go on"

"Ha. Smoke was coming from a puddle, and I wondered if it was sinking anything, and I explored it with a knife in gear, and this is what happened"

Murtaugh offered the knife in his hand to show it. It was like the surface had collapsed, obviously 'melted'.

"This is..."

"Are you saying it's because of the liquid that was left in the water after the flush?

"Liquid to dissolve iron..."

Captains to think about.

"... in the old kingdom of Leonard, did you even think of possibly using it as a weapon?

It was Fritz who said so.

"Sure. If you were exposed to this liquid, you'd be damaged even if you were wearing iron armor."

Bruno agrees too.

"But then why were you sealing it?

Bernardo's opinion is supremely natural. This lysate would also stain it from the gap in the armor and cause damage to the enemy.

"... Isn't it because it's too inhumane?

Gloria delivered her opinion. Because she had seen earlier treatment and had seen the tragedy as well.

"... both arms and chest are black, like charcoal. Because intermediate healing magic isn't enough wounds to keep up."

"Hmm..."

It hits what we call a chemical weapon on modern Earth. Not only gas, but these things can also be a threat.

"Even if you dilute it, it will only have this effect... you're scared."

That's right. Jade Nefroy looked a little pale, too.

"In the meantime, before concluding, why not check the contents of the container of Adamantite"

opinions came out of Bernardo.

"No, why don't you think about what makes it Adamantite, not gold?

"I think something more dangerous could be sealed."

Gloria and Fritz disagreed.

"No, it's something I'll have to check sooner or later, and I'd rather check it here than after I bring it back to my home country"

"Right. It's not like there's gonna be an accident on the way home."

And Bruno and Jade were in favor.

I mean, we were supposed to check it out three to two.

Neither Fritz nor Gloria would have voted against the resolution.

"So, how do we check inside?"

"That's me."

And, Jade. It means opening the container with engineering magic.

Even if it was Adamantite, then there would be nothing wrong with opening it.

"Um, please. … I would like to take all possible safety measures."

About 200 metres from the camp, 'Goliath' dug a hemispherical plot about 10 metres in diameter and 5 metres deep.

Carry an Adamantite container into its center and Jade Nephroy opens it with engineering magic.

Jade will have a lifeline, and if anything happens, 'Goliath' will attract him.

Also, those who can use attack magic wait in the abyss of the hole to deal with accidental events.

Non-Gloria female knights, in case, wait in the rear.

This will be communicated to the Kingdom of Egerea in the Magi Monitor.

The above are the measures taken.

The time is 3 p.m.

Jade Nefroy uses engineering magic and puts a hole in Adamantite's container.

"" Deformation ""

The deformation took place very slowly, with a mouth about 10 cm in diameter opening in the lid portion of the container.

Jade to stop there once.

"... What's in it?

Glancing through the opening, there is a translucent loose viscous fluid inside.

If Jen had seen it, it would be like 'fat seeking'.

I'm afraid, I'll follow you with the branches of the trees that were falling, but nothing happens. Jade tried to enlarge the opening.

Without a doubt, it is a translucent fluid with no specialty, but nothing happens when you pierce a tree branch or knife. Apparently this one is not a play.

Relieved Jade Nephroy tried to open the other containers carefully.

10 Up to nine of the containers contained the same object.

But the other one, when you shake it, sounds like you're hanging out. Obviously there are many solids in there, which also seem to be quite hard.

"This seems to be all the different contents. Be careful."

"Yes, I understand"

If I thought so and looked closely at the container, it seemed so small once.

"… 'Deformation (Forming)'"

Jade Nephroy, as before, carefully opened the container.

"What's this?

There were many stones that were grayed in there.

Crushed misaligned shape, shiny and opaque, doesn't look worth it.

"... why is something like this in an Adamantite container?

I don't even know if I think about it.

"Didn't it degenerate and become harmless in more than 200 years"

That was the final conclusion.

"At least that means you can carry Adamantite containers without worrying about their contents."

Nevertheless, hollow containers are called songs.

"Shall I dig holes in the contents and drill them there, and have empty containers ingot with engineering magic"

"That would be nice."

No one objected, so dig a hole in the right place in the center of the place examined and drill all the contents of the container there.

The grey stone was also decided to be thrown away in the same hole because Jade Nephroy looked it up but it was nothing of value.

The stone slowly sank into the translucent viscous fluid.

It is already dusk if you are aware.

"Well, don't be here for another night"

When Bernardo said so, the crew began to prepare for the camp. The tent is already stretched, so it's mainly dinner order.

"It's a treat tonight. Sheepa's Stone Grill."

When the cook said that day, a small cheer went up.

It's a sheepah I found two days ago. I wouldn't have matured as meat yet, but no one likes meat dishes in places like this.

Cook the flat stone with fire, with meat on top of it and cook. I eat it with condiments when it becomes my favorite grill.

When it comes to condiments, only salt and a little vanilla, but still it was a treat for them.

I decided to throw the remaining bones, skins and other raw debris into the hole earlier.

"Tomorrow morning, let's bury it back and then we'll leave"

"Okay."

It was a warm night in the winter, and they slept well without cold thoughts.
