Magi Craft Meister

25-27 Test drive

"Dj, Sir Jin Nido! What is this?

They were stopped by the gatekeepers at the entrance to Miyagi, and Jen looked surprised.

"A horseless carriage, called an 'automobile'. The car behind you is a gift to His Majesty."

"Oh, really? And, anyway, please wait a minute!

It seems that one person rushed to check with his supervisor because the gatekeeper didn't have a decision on whether it was okay to let the first automobile he saw pass lightly because it was Jen's work.

While waiting, Jen had been asked a lot of questions by another gatekeeper.

"Why do you move when you don't have a horse?

"How fast will it go?

"Is it easy to operate?

Equally, they asked me a lot, but I was most pleased with the

"Can I even own this?

It can be a question.

Because it turns out that some people are interested and want to own it.

Would I have waited about ten minutes?

"Lord Jin, excuse me! Gatekeeper! There's no problem! Let us through!"

Kingsguard female knight, Flora, came running and gave Jens permission to cross.

"I apologize, Sir Jin Nido!

The gatekeeper saluted Jen and Jen's automobile. Jen also briefly answered and set off the automobile.

"Edgar, let it run slowly"

"Yes, I did."

It is in Miyagi, so it is suppressed slightly faster than the speed of walking. Flora attached to the side of such an automobile and accompanied him with an early foot.

"Lord Jin, I want this' horseless carriage 'parked in the carriage parking lot"

"Okay."

As instructed, two cars were parked in the parking lot reserved for carriages. Management is left to Edgar, and Jen, Elsa and Reiko head to meet the Empress in the lead of Flora.

"Jin, I was watching you through the window. You made something interesting."

She is the empress who talks about automobiles.

"Yes, one is for His Majesty."

"Really? I'm glad. I'll show you later, okay? First, I need to give that to you."

The Empress signals with her eyes to the Chancellor sitting beside her. The Chancellor offered two sheets of skin paper.

For this reason, the 'wooden paper', imported from Mitsuho by the Empire of Shouro and recently started appearing, had not yet been used for official documents.

"This is your permit to visit Mitsuho. This is your ID."

"Thank you"

Jen gratefully accepted it.

"Come on Jin, let me see your horseless carriage!

Whether or not he knew the Chancellor and Flora were sighing beside him, the Empress stood up with momentum kicking her seat.

"... this is the 'horseless carriage'?

Six people, Jen, Elsa, Reiko, Empress, Chancellor, and Flora, had come to the parking lot at the end of the front square of Miyagi.

"It's called an automobile. This is the automobile we dedicate. This is the room..."

When Jen gave a single commentary, the Chancellor raised his impressed voice.

"Oh......, this is great"

Well-packaged design.

"If you'll excuse me, I'd like to install this crest"

and Jen showing three crossed swords (Dreischwert) of the Emperor's Seal.

Of course, there was no denial to the Empress, and Jen quickly mounted the crest.

"This isn't dangerous, is it?

"Yes, Your Majesty. Now, I've been running from Awkward House to this one, but nothing went wrong. Yes, let's run this automobile and show it to you."

Jen decided to show Edgar the automobile he had built for himself by ordering him to run.

"Well, then, Edgar, come back around the square."

"Yes, I did."

And the automobile goes off.

"Well, I'm really running without a horse!

"Hmm, you don't get that fast."

The Empress and the Chancellor look unusual. Flora wasn't surprised anymore because she was watching while accompanying her earlier.

In a few minutes, Edgar's car returned around Miyagi Square.

"That's why. There's nothing dangerous here, so please give us a test drive."

Jen said, the Empress clamped down on the Chancellor and Flora with such expressions as she couldn't wait.

"Right.... Chancellor, Flora, what do you think?

"Yes, Your Majesty. Please, get in."

First, the Kingsguard Female Knight Flora gets on board, hands on the Empress, and provides support for the ride. The prime minister then boarded.

"Lord Jin, ride with me and ask for an explanation"

and the Prime Minister requested it, so Jen and Reiko boarded last.

Since there are two front and two back rows of seats for three, the front right is Flora, the Empress in the center, and the Chancellor in the left; the second row is Jen to the right, Reiko to the left, in the order of seats.

"Driving is done by a golem specializing in driving. Please verbalize the destination instructions. Take your time around the square, for example."

Yes, I did.

The concise words returned and the automobile ran out.

"It's working. Nice ride."

"Uhm, you can barely feel the vibration"

An automobile that runs in front of Miyagi Square at about 5 km/h. It's fast enough to walk a little faster.

"In the carriage, I give instructions to you."

"I see. Can you do it a little faster?

"Yes. Try directing me"

"Okay." Run a little faster ""

Yes, I did.

After the reply, the speed increased. About 10 km/h?

"Oh, it's getting faster. I wonder how fast we can get?

"It's about 20 km/h. Is it as good as a regular carriage?"

Normal, it is vague to what extent it refers, but the long-distance carriage in this world is about 10 to 15 km/h.

The lack of paved roads is the main cause of this. I would be able to get it out up to about 40 km/h for a short time, but horses and carriages are too burdensome to be practical.

"Still amazing. How long does it run in a row?

"I haven't done the limit test, but as long as it doesn't break, it should always be okay. I have a Magnetic Supplier (Mana Server), so I don't have to worry about running out of Magnetic."

"Hmm, wow"

"That's amazing."

The emperor, the prime minister, who heard the explanation, glanced out the window.

"The view is nice, and the ride is nice. So more than the current carriage. Is the downside expensive?

"Right, I'll go over a million torres with one of these"

And Jen answered, and the Chancellor uttered a bewildered voice.

"Lord Jin, would that be the cost of materials? If Lord Jin had done it, he should have done it twice, three, or five times as hard."

"Ha..."

Prepared by Jen, the Magic Engineer Magicraft Jazz, the prime minister said that if that name value was also included, five million torres (about 50 million yen) per car would not be dropped.

When going long distances, caring for a horse, a creature, becomes a major element. Water, leaves, moderate rest on it. You'll need to wash your body, too.

In the case of automobiles, we can simply ignore it.

As for Jen, he thinks that about 10,000 km would run without maintenance.

"I think only the wheels will need replacing,"

No matter how much reinforced or toughened it is, it is made of wood, so there are limits to it every bit.

"For once, the spare wheels are packed."

Since it has a diameter of 50 cm and a wheel towel of 5 cm, stacking it can only be 20 cm and does not take a place, so it is placed in a storage area under the floor.

"The driving golem knows the knowledge of these maintenance"

"It's the end of it."

By the time I returned from a circle around the vestibule, I was a perfectly satisfied empress.

"There is still room for improvement in this. Let me know if you've noticed anything."

Jen didn't forget to add that.
