Magi Craft Meister

52-04 Sick Name

The old man has spoken to Jen, who is troubled.

"Master (My Lord), do you have one question? I'm missing information."

"Yeah? What?

'Yes. Why is the present Marquis Kuzma looking for someone to give up the housekeeper'

"Oh well"

I hear you're old. I don't know exactly how old you are, but don't you have that much time?

The average life expectancy in the Ars world today should be more than 90 years old, Jen recalled. No matter how much, there won't be nearly 90 marquises with 10-year-olds, Jen thinks.

"That information was missing. All right, Reiko, let's go."

Jen, who was going to gather information around the town, wanted to ask the Young Admiral his current questions as he went.

"The Marquis is, right now, sleeping in an incurable condition. It's not dangerous today or tomorrow, but you're already asleep. So if you don't decide on a successor, you could lose your home (no) when something happens."

If a nobleman dies without deciding on a successor, they sometimes designate a successor for survival in a country, that is, a place of decision, such as a royal family or council, if he was a great nobleman or important figure.

but this time he said that he had only time to decide on his successor but didn't, if it was decided, he would cut off the house as it was, which could also mean.

"Really..."

By the way, the current Marquis Kuzma meant he was 69 years old.

Jen and Reiko left the 'Silver Moon Pavilion' and headed for Boulevard.

"... but I can't think of a place where I might get more information than that inn"

When Jen blurs,

"Father, I say, 'If you walk a dog too, you'll hit a stick', so let's walk around first"

Said Reiko. Jen, who heard that,

"Right. Don't even say... hurry up and go around."

I reconsidered and decided to continue north on Boulevard. There is a lord's hall there.

"Count Kuzma's mansion was on the east side."

"Yes, because at the time I was the 'Secretary of the Eastern District of Blueland'"

The other Earl, Count Galana, was the 'Secretary of the Western District of Blueland', so he had a hall on the western side of town.

"So, what do you think now?

The lord was only the Duke of Blu, and Jen, who thought the Kuzma Marquis was supposed to be the deputy, decided to ask the people on the road.

"Excuse me, are you a Blueland resident?

"Oh, yeah, but you?

"I'm a traveler. I say gin.... Is the Marquis Kuzma in the Lordship Hall?

"No, you're not. The Marquis is being rehabilitated in the mansion on the east side."

"Oh, really?"

"Maybe you're a healer who came to cure the Marquis's illness? Then be sure! I need you to heal me!

Those who mistaken Jen for a healer of the journey walked away, bowing their heads again and again, after he had made sure to worship and express his hope.

"... we all seem to know the Marquis is sick"

As the Young Admiral said.

It's not just a matter of sleeping, it's also a matter of illness and not being able to decide on a successor. There will be no more mistakes.

"But now you have another option."

Curing the Marquis's illness gives him a temporal respite. Even from the current average life expectancy, you should be able to choose to succeed your eldest daughter and become your son-in-law after she has grown up, even if the illness has healed.

"It just means what kind of illness..."

If Elsa had once been Jen's beloved wife and the best healer in the world, perhaps she could have managed, but the interruption of the technology heritage by the Magic League, although not as much as the Magic Runaway Ether Stampede, had inhibited the development of this world.

Looking at such history, Jen,

"Too bad."

And he shrugged.

Elsa's medical knowledge comes partly from Jen and partly from 'Sage (Magus)' Shuki Tsetsi.

In particular, Shuki had made a significant contribution to the development of medicine in this world because he had only aspired to medicine in the world where he was, and had 'fallen' along with several medical books.

And the rest were Elsa's own talents and experiences, which combined to create a rare healer, Elsa Nido.

"I have no choice but to know what the symptoms are."

"Father, would you like me to use the Peep View Telescope?"

Reiko is also equipped with a "peep telescope (peeper)" while being small.

It's not easy to use over long distances because the focus is easily blurred, but it's practical enough for close distances.

"Hopefully there's a place by the Marquis Mansion where you can stay still and not be suspicious"

I can't help but be suspicious if I just stare outside the walls at the Marquis Mansion and stand still. Which is definitely suspicious.

Jen and Reiko walked around and found a small coffee shop.

"Let's go in here with a break"

The time was just around 1pm. There are no other guests besides Jens.

Jen and Reiko chose a seat in the corner.

"Welcome"

It was a girl-shaped automatic doll (Automata) that came to pick up the order. I can see Beana's style at any rate, so it could be a product of 'Craft Queen Workshop', Jen thought.

"Two servings of hot cake and tea (tee)"

"Yes, sir."

Without much thought, Jen decided.

In the meantime, Reiko stayed still and was exploring inside the Marquis Mansion with the built-in "Peep Peek Telescope (Peeper)".

"Thank you for waiting"

For ten minutes before the hot cake and tea (tee) were brought in, Reiko was observing using the Peek-and-See Telescope (Peeper).

Come on, let's eat.

"Yes."

Reiko can also 'eat'. Of course I don't digest.

Previously it was a method of draining, compressing and discharging moisture, but now it takes a method that breaks down into atoms, leaving fewer residues.

Anyway, while eating, Reiko reported the 'seen' results.

"Oops... brother, the subject has symptoms like 'hypermagic'"

This time, Jen and Reiko were set up as "brothers and sisters," and Reiko used the expression "subject" because "marquis" is so bad.

"What!?... Yeah, is that right"

"Hypermagic". It is a disease in which more magic is restored than the body's magic holdings, and excess magic erodes the body.

Elsa used to be this, but he is at full speed due to the teachings of 700672.

"... but if so, is the special effect 'psychic catalyst'?"

A substance extracted from the brain tissue of a special demon, very rare.

You'll also need this to make homunculus.

As the name Catalyst suggests, it does not change in itself, but all organisms that use free magic (ether) have this in their bodies.

With this, you can manipulate the free magic hormone (ether) in spirit. Shall I call it a psychic wave antenna?

By consuming a gram of this in a million, Elsa's "hypermagic" was completely cured.

"You're still in Penglai, aren't you?

"No, there's no one left"

Reiko answered.

"Why?

"... I used it to experiment."

"... right"

Jen dropped his shoulder.

The use of this mental catalyst improves the accuracy of controlling free magic hormone (ether) exceptionally.

It is a mental catalyst that originally had less than a gram. It was natural that it would disappear if used for such experiments.
