Magi Craft Meister

23-29 Busy idle/lack of information

Jens broke up with Gloria and the others and returned to their rooms.

Lao Zi and Ann are also samurai.

It was also confirmed that there were no wiretapping devices, etc. in the room by the Shinobi Squad.

Bath lover Jen decided to bathe first. Jen heads to the bathroom on the ground floor of the reception hotel.

Because of all the things that happened with Prince Wang and Gloria's parents and children, no one else was bathing anymore.

"You can stay free."

I don't have any other guests, so I went to the bathroom with Reiko to escort and escort them.

"That's a massive bath."

The bathtub, made of marble-like stone, was large enough for about ten people to fit in.

As such, the habit of bathing in hot tubs with hot water is common in the Kingdom of Celluloa, so as for Jen, I have no complaints in that regard.

Except.

"... warm"

The temperature of hot water was low. It feels about 38 degrees Celsius.

As for Jen, who likes a hot bath, her body didn't warm up and she couldn't get out.

"... make it hot"

Since there were no other bathers, Jen used the engineering magic 'Heating (Heat)'. Occasionally the temperature of the hot water rises.

"Uh, that's fine."

Relax, he was Jen, who enjoyed bathing alone.

On the other hand, it seems that one person could bathe quietly, as there is neither Elsa nor anyone else headed for the women's bathroom.

After dinner served to each of them, Jen was hitting Elsa with questions.

"Hey Elsa, is it my fault you've been acting kind of crazy since I checked out the kid you think Arshel is?

"... Brother Jin, you know?

"Well, we've known each other a long time, and whatever it is, it's about Elsa."

……

I can tell you for myself, Jen, and Elsa, who turns bright red when she says it. Time for silence flows.

"Father, Elsa, have a drink."

To break the silence, Reiko placed the cold juice in front of the two of them.

"Oh, oh, thank you, Reiko"

"Thank you, Laeko"

The two men, who took a sip of juice, regained their minds and resumed the conversation.

"She's not Alshell."

"What?"

From Elsa's mouth, suddenly the unexpected words were spun, and just Jen was also fed.

"How did you come to that conclusion?

"... but for several reasons."

Slowly Elsa started explaining.

"... If that kid was Arshel, there's got to be something,"

To the sudden words of Elsa, Jen thought for a moment, but soon understood the intention.

"'Needle (Aggh)"?

"Yes, even when I heard about her in Penglai, I must have told her that the memory was clouded by a typing mistake in the" Needle of Maneuver (Aggh). "

"Oh, you did"

Jen remembered that time and nodded.

"... and she didn't have the 'steering needle (aggh)'. There are two possible reasons."

"Right. If you have already retrieved the" steering needle (Aggh) "."

"Originally, it wasn't punched in, possibilities"

Jen nodded again.

"But there are many examples of extremists who didn't punch in the 'Needle of Manipulation' because they originally hated mankind, right?

"Yeah, I know that"

"Then why?

Elsa answers in a cautious manner, as she chooses words.

"That's another reason. Her body...... the 'flow' of is abnormal. It didn't seem like it belonged to people."

"What do you mean?

Elsa shook her head and looked a little sorry.

"I can't explain it well, and I don't have any evidence, but I feel that the composition in my body is different from that of a human being. I wish I could have done a little more research."

Before there was Prince Wang, I thought it might be more unnatural than that, Elsa said.

"Not human, not demonic, or..."

"... who the hell is she?

"You don't know. Too little information. If they look it up in Penglai, they might find out... or 7006..."

When I asked No. 72, I realized that Jen tried to keep going.

"... 'artificial human (homunculus)'?"

An artificial human being (Homunculus), an artificially created demonic organism. Jen now tried to say, No. 700672 was one of them.

"But who the hell? For what?

There is no answer to that question. Is there anyone in this world who can make an artificial human being (homunculus) in the first place?

"Besides, it's just a guess."

"... but that's likely. The discomfort seen in" Diagnosis "can be explained if you think about it."

"Including that, if you copy and examine your memories in Knowledge Transfer (Transinfo), you'll soon find out."

If it's that way, you'll also know if it's really amnesia or acting. But even though they were just Jen, they were told to use their magic in front of Prince Wang.

"... yeah, I thought about that. If you're really losing your memory, if your memory is still in your brain, maybe you could have remembered it back a little that way."

"Right."

It's not like memory and personality, so I don't know if that would undo it, but it would definitely be one option for amnesia treatment.

Jen and the others discussed the matter, but tomorrow is a memorial service. Even if I could see the Arshel-like girl again, it would be after the ceremony, so I decided not to draw any early conclusions until then.

Ann opened her mouth waiting for such a conversation between Jens to be separated.

"Sir, Elsa, may I say something?

"Hmm? Sure. Tell me if you've noticed anything."

"Yes, then.... Was it considered that if the girl were Alshell, there was also the possibility that she would launch an attack as soon as she regained her memory?

"Ugh..."

It is Jen, who honestly did not think about it.

Because every Demon clan that no longer had the influence of "Needle (Aggh)" was no longer belligerent, but in this case it could have been an exception, and Ann pointed that out.

Even though Reiko and Edgar were attached, the sweet perception of safety was a reflection.

"Okay. Thanks for the advice, Ann. I'll be careful."

"No, I rather apologize for the delay in advising you"

And Anne withdrew with a grace.

Jen decided to reconsider and think about one more thing that bothered her.

It is the sword of Ilidosmin, which Gloria obtained.

"Who the hell made it for what..."

It wasn't that old. Rather, it was very similar to the one currently in use.

Therefore, it does not appear to be an ancient artifact.

"... it was important not to dissolve?

Jen had something flashing at Elsa's pompous and leaky words.

"Right! If you want to fight a demon with powerful acids, like a giant ant, you can snort. Adamantite is fine, but the distribution is limited."

The main region of Adamantite was in the eastern part of the Lauren continent, home to mankind.

Penglai, of course, but there were several large mines in the former Kingdom of Leonard. Therefore, adamantite was used sparingly in containers sealed with "mortar".

Conversely, iridosmin was seldom picked in Penglai.

"If it was made in the kingdom of Dinar, a country of the past rather than here in the kingdom of Celluloa... oh, can't you explain the fact that the design of"

"I changed it later, what are the chances?

Mouth what Elsa came up with.

"There's no chance of that, but... But from what I've seen, I think it was made at the same time as the sword itself."

That's when the old boy pinched his mouth.

"My lord (My Lord), I'm sorry to be talking to you, but it's 11: 00. Tomorrow there will be a ceremony, so I was wondering if it's time to take a rest."

"... oh, that's already the time. Okay. Let's go to bed."

Jen nodded and decided to break up the conversation. I'm not even talking about how I could originally draw conclusions.

"Collect information about previous stories from me as well"

Lao Zi contracts. When I heard that, Jen felt a little more comfortable.

Good night, Elsa.

"Good night, Brother Jin."

The bedrooms are separate. Jen and Elsa took Reiko and Edgar into each bedroom.

"An artificial human (homunculus) may have something to do with the Iridsmin sword."

Penglai Island's magical brains, Lao Jun can work with insomnia.

Even that night, he was an old man who had no hesitation in gathering information, using his own mobile terminal, Laoko, and Shinobi Squad by ultra-compact golems, as well as Row 5 (Quinta).

And the ceremony for the founding of the Kingdom of Celluloa was approaching the next day.

And the sky was clear, and the moon lit the earth alongside the bright stars.
