Magi Craft Meister

29-29 Study

The day after returning from the investigation line, Jen led Elsa, Saki and Hannah to their predecessors' study.

It is Reiko who leads the way.

"It's been years since I've been here..."

It's also strange, Jen followed the hallway thinking.

He woke up in this world and met Reiko's predecessor, Automata, and was led to his predecessor's study.

And Jen opened the door, which was not allowed to be opened by Reiko's predecessor, the automatic doll (Automata).

What was there was a bookshelf full of books, simple but solid desks and chairs, books placed on them and crystal balls.

Soaking in memories, Jen touched the door.

"Hmm... that?

At that moment, Jen learned a light-hearted sensation.

"This is..."

At the time, it was eaten by pushing the door that was pulled and opened, but this time such 'lost consciousness' also arose.

Looking back, looking at the Elsa's, he looks confused.

"I knew it."

Around here, I guess there's something like a spiritual defensive junction, Jen hit.

Compared to when he was summoned, he had a better sense of what he had experienced in a magical world.

"I guess it's the last line of prevention that you don't want to be vandalized"

Therefore, Jen decided to instruct Old Master to deploy one of the functions of the three "Companion Bracelet", the "Magic Barrier".

Likewise, I put up a Magic Barrier. This renders the magic attack ineffective.

……

"Is that it?"

"... were you asleep?

Looks like the three of us are back to sanity.

"Yeah, I just realized there's something near here, like a spiritual defensive junction. So they all got apathetic."

Jen goes through the door, explaining.

"There it is.... This is..."

Magi Formula, engraved behind the door. It was the first time Jen had seen it.

"You've got some letters on you too.... What..."

Jen slowly read the letters.

"'This magic formula (Magi Formula) could not be parsed by me either, but it helps to diminish the interest in what comes close'... Reiko, did you know?

But Reiko shook her neck to the side like she was sorry.

"No, Father. I didn't know. Maybe you just don't remember."

Probably don't remember, you're more right.

Reiko's predecessor, Automata, took care of his predecessors and guided Jen again while this bond existed.

"I can't believe there's such a magic formula..."

Jen looked familiar with the letters used. That's probably the letter the Originals used.

It is a prototype of the characters used in the current Ars.

There is a difference between Greek and Roman characters, if you like. It's hard for Jen to read.

"My predecessors must have found out about this magic formula somewhere and copied it all."

To pick up where you can read it and guess its effect, it seems to resemble 'Implications' but has no sequelae or anything else, and it simply has the effect of lowering your interest in this place.

There is a magic called 'Hyde'. It's magic that erases signs, but when you speak up or are attacked, it doesn't work.

It seems to be of the same descent as that, Jen guessed. Furthermore, this junction seems to be valid for automatic dolls (automata) and golems.

Once, when I traveled with Elsa and Reinhardt through the kingdom of Elias, Reiko was unable to detect the signs of a thief wearing an amulet with the effect of "Hidden (Hyde)".

But once you are well aware, the earliest effect will disappear.

At the time of my last visit, Reiko's predecessor, Automata, was familiar with this place, so I was able to guide Jen without hesitation.

However, Jen must have been affected by the extent to which he pushed the door open to eat.

This juncture is very useful. Stretching this around Penglai would reduce the likelihood of being discovered even less than it is now, Jen thought.

"So Brother Jin didn't remember this place until recently?

When I was thinking about it, I heard Elsa, and Jen returned to me.

"Seems so. After I left this room, I thought I'd run out of business here."

"How could my predecessors have such a bond...?

Saki tilts her neck. Jen made a guess.

"The point would be, 'I don't want anyone else approaching my room'. My late predecessors hated people..."

……

In previous records, what happened to previous generations who were bright in character? He was Jen, who wanted to know and felt he should not know.

I can't even do that all the time in the hallway. With his face up, Jen took Reiko's hand and stepped inside the room. The other faces stay in the hallway and wait.

"This is the second time you've come to an earlier study."

Just like last time, when I stepped in, the bright light overflowed.

"I was surprised at that time, and I didn't do anything to make you look slow..."

Jen looked inside the room.

Simple but solid desks and chairs the same as then.

And a tightly packed bookshelf.

"... that?

I took one of the books and saw it, and it was blank inside. In other words, it's a dummy book.

Even now Jen wondered why she bothered to do this.

So I gently touched my hand on the bookshelf.

And I think the bookshelf moved slightly.

…… Funny, this is all the heavy bookshelves. "

So when I looked it up, I knew immediately why.

The bookshelf slides sideways. Jen slowly moved the bookshelf.

"Oh."

Hidden on the bookshelf was a single door.

There the name 'Adriana Barbora Zezi' was written in gold letters.

"I wonder if this is the real private room"

Jen gently opened the door. There was a similar room there. No, the room in front is dummy, and this must be the original.

equally heavy bookshelves and a cup of shelves of books, desks and chairs. But there's one thing that's different.

"Folding crane......"

In the middle of the bookshelf was placed a clear case, thought to be made of crystal, in which there was one yellowing, old crane.

"Father, is this what your mother gave you from your grandfather?

I have a question from Reiko, who saw the "origami crane" that my predecessor cherished.

Probably remembered when Reiko's predecessor, the Automatic Doll (Automata). However, with the damage to the deteriorated control nucleus (control core), the memory appears to have been lost.

In that sense, this visit is of great significance to Reiko.

"Right. First, definitely."

"Your mother's, you're a treasure."

How many years have we spent together since Shuki gave us it, and more than a thousand years decorated here.

Adriana Barbora Zezzi said she would know how much she cared.

Jen and Reiko, often delayed by emotion, recalled that Elsa, Saki and Hannah were still in the hallway.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Everybody, come inside."

"... I'm sorry to bother you"

"I'm sorry to bother you"

"I'm sorry to bother you"

All three of them put in a quiet voice to say no before stepping in, I was glad to Jen about that.

"... this is the study of my predecessors"

"This is the room of Magic Engineer Magicraft Jazz."

"You're the one who hits your master, aren't you? Thanks to this guy, we met properly."

Hannah shrugged to be sure rather than a question, and offered a silent prayer toward 'Folding Crane'.

Seeing it, Elsa and Saki similarly pray silently. Jen likened them, and meditated his eyes. And Reiko too......

"Thanks, guys"

Approximately a minute later, Jen opened his eyes and thanked him.

"Well, this is the real study of my predecessors. Probably have some kind of record on this bookshelf."

"Right, Father."

Many books with gold lettering on the back cover of black leather.

About half of them were written in Japanese, except for plain pseudonyms, though.

"Mr. Shuki didn't even teach kanji, did he? No, you couldn't teach because you taught a lot, or you had a low priority..."

Either way, it is also logical that Kanji was not used in the magic formula (Magi formula) constructed by the previous generation, Jen thought.

And take one book.

I guess the magic for preservation hangs, looks like a brand new one I just could do.

Of course, sometimes this whole room was magically sealed.

"This must be the record of my predecessors..."

On the back cover of the book, it said 'My Fumi One More'. Fumi Afterwards, that would mean the footprints I walked in (soaked) = diary, the first book of it.

The same leather belt, closed so as not to open easily.

If you remove the hardware that fastens that belt, the diary will be opened...

Jen was hesitant to open it.

"Father, what is it?

Seeing Jen like that, Reiko asks in wonder.

Jen answered with a slightly troubled face.

"No, I feel like I'm stealing someone else's diary..."

"Father, then I will. If my daughter sees my mother's diary, wouldn't she be forgiven?"

"I see..."

It may be a trick, but I feel more comfortable with it. Jen handed the diary to Reiko.

Reiko, who received it, tried to remove the fasteners and noticed the letters written there.

"Father, here is something like a cautionary note.... 'Allow only those who inherit my will to open'"

"... right"

Once again, Jen received a diary from Reiko, removed the fastener, and slowly opened it.

"... the beginning looks like the trajectory of Sage (Magus) we've seen so far"

Jen said as he turned the page.

"Oh, it says here that Shuki died. That's the unknown part from here."

"Having buried my beloved father, Shuki Tsetsi, I decided to travel alone"

Jen began to read in a low voice.
