Shadow Brave's Readventure - Re-Tale of the Brave

Not long before Raul and the others started testing their prototype, Kate and Tina came to the lab where they were also given what they were.

There are times when other researchers and Kuzha and others are together, but today, Al, Lil and Lucius are together. Until now, time had been taken by the Adventure Department's kite, Tina, and the nobles' visit, etc., but since a paragraph had been made, we were going to conduct an experiment on the magic machine in earnest today.

"And that doesn't mean. Got it?

Tina finishes her description while showing the data reflected in the projector.

……

The three of you finished hearing Tina explain that, but she won't say anything. I couldn't say more than that. And when I saw those three, Kate put out a help boat.

"... don't worry. I don't even understand the theory. If I hear this explanation, I can understand what I don't understand."

"... right.

Lucius snorted deeply at Kate's words. They are warriors, not theorists in charge of development. You don't have to understand the theory to use it, and I don't plan to research and develop it in the first place.

Even if he retired from the metaphorical army for any reason, fostering backwardness would be his position as a user. I guess it's better than not, but I don't need to force you to do it, and the packing of theories, even then, was enough.

"Well, I'm not asking you to understand all this after all. Flush properly."

And, of course, Tina wasn't going to say that either. So why did you explain it, because they serve as testers for prototype pre-production types?

Incidentally, if you brought in a Magic Shell besides a Magic Machine, Tine and several other crew members were supposed to serve as mass production test pilots.

This is because when they are deployed in action, they are deployed first to the Special Forces. The idea was that if the face to be used would actually become a tester, a more practical object could be developed.

"Lucius is the first aircraft of the Commander's Combined Enemy Enhancement. Lil is the lightweight, high-mobility machine. The heavy duty reference machine is Al. The specs of each of the planes in charge are written in the material."

Tina, who instructed her to flush it properly, gives the three of them more materials with specs. The three people who receive it load the material with serious attention. Even if you don't know the theory, you have to understand the specs of the equipment you use.

By the way, besides this, there are also one-off custom models and magic specialty demon models, but they didn't have to test both because the prototypes of Kite - the high-performance all-purpose type - and Tina - even more custom of the demon type - serve as testing models for mass production.

One leaf supports the demonic type as the type with a few other improvements, two leaves for the lightweight high-mobility type of armed reinforcement, and three leaves for the enemy reinforcement type are being adjusted. It should be noted that these have been developed separately from their dedicated machines, and they want to check comparative data with the Magic Conductor for the three of them during this test period. As a matter of course, custom machines exist for Kuzha, Aura and Yuri.

"Well, any questions?

"Um... first of all, when is mass production?

"In the meantime, well, regardless of Kite and the rest of the dedicated machines, when it comes to mass production, the prototype is a few years away, so be it. Well, besides, I can't make the center of this magic machine anywhere but the rest. It incorporates a number of technologies from the planet, so we can't do anything but the rest. I don't understand the theory. No matter how much magic you used, it's impossible to copy like that. If so, the deployment of mass production machines is well ahead of schedule. Even if we can make it 10 years away for you, we'll have 100 years to recruit in the Duke's army."

It's a distraction, I think. All of this is designed, developed and produced by one Tina. And Tina has so many other jobs. It was only natural that we should be about that far ahead.

"I mean, my kid's kid's kid, about..."

"That sort of thing, then... what else?

"... What is the AI for this pseudo-AI support system?

"Well, you can't understand the abbreviation for artificial intelligence, artificial intelligence - Artificial Intelligence... The so-called electronic user demon... um, it's good to think of it as a simple user demon"

"Ha..."

Lil was quite inclined to the neck, but Tina just said what the instruction manual said. For those of them who don't have computer knowledge even if they explain it, they won't understand. So Tina decided to go through with it.

"So, bye. Your machine is equipped with behavioral support that simplifies it. Originally, we wanted to develop and equip complete artificial intelligence as a fuselage, but somehow the artificial intelligence of natural products was discovered. With Aigis' support, we have developed pseudo-artificial intelligence that specializes in supporting only parts of the battle. No, I was just wondering what was wrong with the idea of creating artificial intelligence for mass production machines."

How to say genius Tina, creating and educating artificial intelligence from scratch can be a tremendous hassle. Naturally, it was clear that cost performance would deteriorate because it would take time.

Therefore, it was decided not to equip the mass-producer with artificial intelligence, but with pseudo-artificial intelligence specialized in supporting combat. That's how Tina goes on.

"Well, as a result, autonomous actions like Aigis have become impossible. That said, there's not much of a problem. Originally, your operation is not a single horseman, but a unit. I'm not assuming you have to act on autopilot."

Tina says so openly, but this is true. Al and Lil, who are being driven out to cover the Adventure Department as they are today, are in an unusual state.

Still, they are tolerated because they will train under kite as the main force of the next Duke's army. It was worth it, and their strength today had risen nearly double from the beginning of meeting the kites overall, apart from the basic specs.

"And not to say, any other questions?

Tina completes her explanation for now, and the three of us raise some questions, and Tina answers them. After repeating this several times, it seems that the question is finally out of stock.

"So that's it?

"… of, it seems.

Lucius looks at Al and Lil and raises them without question because they nodded. Besides, Tina nodded.

"Well, let's get back to the actual machine test."

So the five men took them, and went out into the room.

"Well, how's it going? It would be highly uncomfortable since this is not the first time I've actually been on a Magic Machine outside of VR. Well, patience till you get used to it. '

Tina's voice echoed each cockpit from the communication device of the three mass production machines. As Al listens to it, he decides to switch it on to the main power as per the instruction manual.

Then the lights immediately lit the cockpit block so that we could see what was going on outside. Until this point, the problem should not have arisen, as the power is secured by the magic on board the Magic Machine, not by the magic of the passengers. And there was no problem.

This time it's still a test, so Al checks the meter according to the manual that was allowed to be brought in. Thus, when it was confirmed that there was no indication of an error on all the meters, the microphone of the communication machine was switched on.

"... this is the prototype mass-produced reference machine. No abnormalities on the meter"

'... I checked here as well. Reference machine, no abnormalities'

It was Kate's voice that answered. This was a simultaneous test of three planes, which meant that Kite was working for Tina's assistant.

He's not originally a researcher either, but Aigis isn't here at the moment, and even if it's a leaf, he left a message at Maxwell. There was no one but Kite who could help.

"Likewise, no problem with machine number"

'No problem with this one either. Machine number one.

A little late, the voices of Lil and Lucius sounded. Apparently, he succeeded without any major problems with startup. As such, after hearing it, Kite also looks at the meter in front of her and confirms that there is no problem.

"Instrumentation confirmation… no problem with both machines. Startup Success'

'Well, then, this is where it comes from. When you activate the fuselage in combat mode, you eat magic all at once, just like the big magic armor. Pay attention to the operational limits. The color turns yellow when the number displayed in the lower right corner of the screen is half. The yellow light indicates that the limit area for operational action is close, and flashes red when it falls below 30. If you go below 15, you'll be forced to retreat with a red light. "

Tina's attention continues further. The main precautions are related to output control. This one takes place automatically, but when the magic supply from the passengers falls below half the threshold, the safety device works, and apparently the fuselage starts the retreat action automatically to a predetermined location.

Well, even though it's a big one, it's a magic guide armor after all. As a general rule, it is powered by magic from the passengers. If the magic runs out, it's no different than a metal coffin that's just big. I guess it's natural to take a safety margin about that just in case.

It was necessary to pay considerable attention to the timing of the replenishment, since the time when it was possible to fight without any replenishment, such as a large magic armor, a magic machine, or any kind of replenishment, is about an hour.

"Now, activate it."

In response to Tina's signal, the three aircraft simultaneously fully activate the Magic Conductor.

"Gu!?

At the moment of activation, Al gained the feeling of being sucked of his magic at once. The other two voices heard from the comms also contained a rather distressing color.

"Kuhaha... this is tight..."

I got a slightly distressed look on my face and Al shrugged.

'This... would have been dangerous if you hadn't trained to increase your magic holdings...'

Lil's face, which I would return as well, seemed spicy somewhere. By passing magic on the main unit used in the battle, all display systems and communication machines began to function fully. Outside conditions floated around them, displaying a square display frame just beside Al, in which Lil's face was displayed.

It would be easier for Tina to exchange information so that she could have a face-to-face conversation.

"Hmm... this one's not very spicy."

Al and Lil seemed spicy, but some leeway existed in Lucius' face. This was not a difference in proficiency, it was a difference in fuselage.

Al and Lille's fuselage is only slightly higher in output because they are also on the front-line in view of front-line activity. In contrast, Lucius' fuselage focused on command and support at a slightly lower point than the front line, giving priority to endurance over a flash of output in one way or another.

Although it is obvious, the fuselage used by Lucius is also a fuselage that can be used sufficiently on the front lines. Just, like, one step inferior.

"Knock... check output status... yeah, no problem"

"This one's fine, too."

'... Unit one, if you turn on the enemy system, the enemy alert won't stop ringing. All surroundings are alerted to enemy reactions.'

"Mm?"

We followed Tina's instructions and checked each other out, but Lucius reported the anomaly in an examination. That's how I got it, and the sound of the meter swinging from the tip of the comm. Tina was dealing with it.

'... stopped. Unit one, no problem. What happened?

"Apparently, the enhancement of the anti-foe system has also made the other two aircraft perceive an undetectable waiting demon conductor armor. I'm waiting, and I still haven't linked the Imperial Army information as a prototype. So I see you've recognized the Imperial Army's magic armor as your enemy. Is the interior magic circuit badly sealed? Looks like you detected the magic that leaked while you were waiting."

'... I mean what?

"Thanks to good performance, we can also find ambushes,"

"I see. Thank you."

When Lucius inquired because he couldn't understand Tina's long explanation, Kite chewed up and told me how she looked bitterly smiled. I mean, that's the thing.

If this was a delicacy made by Tina Class or a one-off made by a famous artisan, there would have been no leakage, but whether it was a mass production type of sadness or not, the degree of completeness dropped one step at a time. And Tina also admitted such a chewed up explanation of kite.

'Um, well, you can think of that. Now, try to actually move each machine.'

In response to that word, Al took a step forward on his right foot, as explained. Then it returns a firm feeling. And now step forward with your left foot.

"... yeah. No problem. But it feels a little strange. It's like I'm floating in the air now, but my feet convey a firm sense of the ground"

'Sure, that's an odd feeling. It's a slightly different feeling to create a scaffold with magic and ride on it.'

'One question, if the scaffolding on the side of the magic conductor changes, does this also have a different feel to convey?

As Al and Lil verbally share their thoughts, they question the question Lucius gained from it. Taking that, Tina nodded in the screen displayed in front of the three of them.

"Uhm. However, in case of posture loss, we have the idea of automatically rebalancing on the fuselage side. For this reason, if you are likely to fall due to scaffolding problems, you may gain the feeling of being forced to cause your body. Be patient with that as something unique to the Magic Conductor. '

Copy that, sir.

Lucius, convinced to hear Tina's answer, engraves that question and the answer firmly into Al and Lil's chest as well. If you accidentally missed out on the battlefield and couldn't figure out the difference, you'd be dead.

As such, the three make some moves, but the first thing that surprised me was that the Magic Machine moves according to their movements without any delay in dimension. There was no lag in the large demonic armor before, and the three of them were once again to realize Tina's high strength as a technician.

What surprised me then was still the speed with which the external information was displayed. This, well, resulted from sampling a special case called Aigis and Kaiou, which increased the response.

That said, there is a slight delay between the fact that we are dropping the technology that we are using because of the power of our users and the lack of their support, but I'm probably concerned about that when Kate, Tina, and Kuzha used the mass production machine. Besides, this is the technology that's still in the development stage. It would be strange to have a satisfactory product from the beginning.

Good, we're done checking the operation. What about the current limit of mobility?

"Machine number one is available for operation… later 75. Blue Light '

"Unit 73 left. Blue Lights as well '

"Reference machine 68 left. Blue Light '

"Hmm. Is the output consumption of the heavily installed type still slightly high? I don't mind dropping the battle system for once. '

Following Tina's orders, the three will shut down the system for combat. Then naturally, at once, the consumption of magic decreased.

"Good. This is the mode of action when acting outside of normal combat. It's going to be a lot easier. At the point of the previous red light, it automatically switches to this mode and acts on its own until the collection point. Collection points will be set for each battle. In the meantime, be careful that your body hardly moves to maintain the lives of the passengers."

"It would be nice to check the operation over here..."

To Tina's words, Al questions. That seemed like the best thing. I thought it would be easier and safer if I could move in normal mode and check the operation. but naturally, there was a reason for this.

"Either that or I checked the safety device for the output. Oh, the safety devices are almost useless in the rest of the kite. So I asked the Lord to confirm it. Besides, if your lords knew how fatigued you were in battle, they wouldn't be able to use it?

"As it were, well, yes."

To Tina's answer, Al laughs bitterly. Well, if you think you're used to driving, you'll have no problem. And so, fu, one question came to Al's mind.

"Speaking of which, in case you needed to take urgent action during a retreat action, what should you do?

'Mm-hmm. That's a good idea. Then...'

To Al's question, Tina starts answering and several questions come out of the three of us again. After all, I have questions about the first time I've tried it. Thus, on this day, the test and question were repeated several times, and the sun went down.
