Magi Craft Meister

26-43 Decadence

……

It was quiet in the automobile running north. Nobody tries to open their mouth.

"... after all, what 'Sage (Mags)' did was futile..."

Jen was the first to open his mouth, but the tone was sinking heavily.

Elsa and Saki, knowing that Jen came from the same world as' Sage (Magus) 'Shuki Tsetsi, could perceive Jen's feelings.

I think it's good, and what I've done for this world has become a vendetta, because I've seen a real example of it.

"But Jen, here...... 'Newell' has become decadent, but 'Sage (Mags)' is appreciated in Fuso and Mitsuho, isn't it?

It was Goose who spoke to the depressed Jen.

"It just so happens that Batalph may have decaded"

Jen seems to feel a little better about the words.

"Yeah, yeah... maybe"

"Father, I've actually brought something like this."

"Yeah?"

Reiko offered a magic crystal.

"Control core?"

"Yes. It belongs to a golem that fell apart when I hit him. I thought you might find out something."

"Oh, well done. Let's see it soon. … 'Read (decompile)'"

It is an engineering magic that reads information linguistically. In front of Jen's eyes, the information unfolded in magical language (Magilanguage).

"... this was... that's why..."

To its content, Jen and Elsa cease.

"Hannah, don't look"

Elsa blushed, blocking Hannah's eyes, but even Hannah still can't read magic (Magui Language).

"Jen, what did you find out?

Likewise, Goose, who doesn't understand magic (Magi Language), asked. Saki looks like she heard too.

"Oh, that's it..."

Jen began to whisper. Elsa talks a lot, trying to distract Hannah.

"In a nutshell, the birth rate seems to have dropped because he started to 'act' on automated dolls (automata), not human opponents"

However, to say it in Shuki's honor, it seems that it was future generations of technicians who added such a feature, Jen added.

"... what a frightening story."

"... not at all"

Neither Saki nor Goose seem to be able to block their open mouths.

It goes without saying that everyone except Hannah thought that it would be the fault of 'Sage (Mags)'......

Is that an evil example of how, in leisure time, humans sometimes turn in an outrageous direction?

"... and then you'll see an unusual 'Magic Connection'..."

A dozen times more than Reiko, Luna or Soleil.

"Probably a procedure to make Clauden do what he wants, but this is an unusual value..."

"Father, even an autonomous golem cannot make a normal decision."

"So you acted to reflect Clauden's madness."

Together, he took that fact quite well, so Elsa asked him what lay ahead.

"Brother Jin, what are you going to do now?

I'm running slowly at about 10 km/h towards the north for now.

"Well... we don't have much time..."

"Jin, why don't we just visit one more place?

Jen nodded at the suggestion from Saki.

"Right, I will"

When that happens, where is the town to be visited? the idea of making it a neighboring town because of its proximity, but the town Jen wanted to go to,

"I knew it would be 'Naminte'"

It is the town of the birth of Adriana Tierra, who became the wife of Shuki Tsetzi, a town inhabited by the Tierra clan, who called themselves the 'Rare People'.

"Yeah, I guess so. I'm interested, too."

"Mm-hmm. I think that's fine"

"I'm fine where you want to go!

"I guess that's reasonable. I have no objection either."

All was to say it was fine in the town of Naminthe.

"Okay, it's settled"

So the car increased its speed to 15 km/h.

"Jen, you, and Reiko are amazing! Certainly the best in the world. Magicraft Jazz, the best tech magician in the world!

Goose said a compliment to Jen and Reiko in the car. And

"I'm sure the Imperial Shouro is an advanced magic technique..."

I suppose he is giving thought to the Empire of Shouro, his father's country of origin, Goose glanced a little farther.

"That's what I can't even say."

"Hmm? What do you mean?

Jen then briefed him on the "Magic Wars" and "Magic Runaway" Aether Stampede ".

"... I have heard of the Magic Wars from my father. I don't think Fuso has much of an influence on the magic runoff, Ether Stampede."

Fortunately, it was originally a dense area with free magic (ether) concentrations, or there never seemed to be any use of magic machines (maggi machines) or magic tools at all.

However, some devices appear to have stopped working or moved slowly.

"You still had an impact."

If Jen squeals, Goose speaks of recollections again.

"My father said so. I'm afraid of recoil if I rely too much on one thing,"

The words represented the feelings of everyone in a row.

(Speaking of which...)

Jen also, when he used to work in modern Japan, a major business partner went out of business, and management was temporarily inclined.

At that time, some managerial positions said, 'I fall when there is no need for one pillar. It doesn't have to be the same thickness, but it would be dangerous if three bottles weren't prepared,' he recalls, and so on.

(It's easy to say, but...)

In the case of medium-sized companies, yes, it is not possible to have several counterparties.

But......

(So it's dangerous to rely on magic alone)

That's when Hannah's voice sounded.

"Oh, come on - it's snow!

We've been heading north, so it looks like some of the snow is still there.

In Hannah's voice Jen remembered the village of Kaina.

(It's a village where you can live without magic...)

Although Jen has installed several magic machines (Magi machines) and magic equipment, it was thought that even if they were no longer available, there would be no major disruption.

(Again, it looks like we need to put science and technology at the other root)

Jen was thinking of that, looking out the window and staring innocently at Hannah's side.

A line northward passed through the towns named Nigo, Tosemo and Mayan, but they were all abandoned.

The same was true of Gracie Ho, who arrived that night.

"Daragoma next, and Naminthe"

Goose whines as he looks at the map at hand. It's a photocopy of the map that was in Shuki Tsetsi's records.

"That's a completely different name than Fuso or Mitsuho."

Many of those two countries were seen only as having taken from Japanese place names, but none here in Newell.

The same goes for the country name 'Newell' in the first place.

(I wonder if it is the country where a group of original ancestors lived and made it)

Jen thinks you can tell that by looking at the domed building and the dots that it's in Naminthe.

"You'll be able to wear it by about noon tomorrow."

It took a thin cloud and Jen groaned alone as she looked up at the sky where the bright stars looked negligible.

And April 26th.

Looking sideways at the deserted town of Dalagoma, the line continues northwards.

Before noon, I saw something like the town of Naminthe.

"Is that it?

Hands over his eyes, and Jen said, Goose looked at the other side again with the same trick, and groaned.

"Looks like you've got walls all around you. Is it the same as when we were in Shuki Tsetsi?

"Where the Tierras lived, they went around the outside of town."

While we're having that conversation, the town's coming up.

"Hmm, sounds like you haven't gotten too old"

"Is there a person?

That's when the car stops.

"Father, there's a barrier here too."

Reiko explains.

"It's more powerful than Battalph's and seems to have a greater range. What will you do?

"First of all, it's Tierra's house over town. Let's go around."

"Okay."

An automobile that goes around the outside of a barrier (barrier) to the left.

"Aren't the walls getting taller?

According to Shuki's notes, it meant about three meters, but if you look around, it looks like there's about five meters.

"It's been over a thousand years, and it's not weird if it's been built."

"So is that."

And for a few minutes, on my way, I saw a gray dome.

"Sounds like it."

"Well, I'm looking forward to seeing what the hell is waiting for you"

Jen was feeling excited about it all the time.
