"Since I came to this world, I thought I had become more or less resistant to such things." "At that time, my liver was really cold..." For a while,── Wilforne, it was my friend's water spirit, but I couldn't get away from her side. "

A ghost ship that I think is a fantasy being, and I can't explain it by itself. Is it still a reflex of the sensual conditions of modern people? Like Mira, who relied on the existence of the Spirit King, Mike, who experienced the creepiness, also relied on the Spirit.

"No matter what, I can't believe it. I didn't think I'd be able to find any clues by looking into it. At that time, it was shocking. There was a mystery in this fantasy world that could not be solved by fantasy. I'm already excited about that."

I encountered a terrible occult, but Mike laughs that it was a valuable experience. Though I had the impression that it was only a little stronger, curiosity also came to my face.

"It's creepy, but if it's a real ghost ship, I'm worried about it." Because there are elements like pirate treasures in those kinds of things! "

Although occult, it shows interest as Mira. In light of the circumstances, it seems that it is a pirate ghost ship.

Speaking of pirates, treasure. It was an honest idea.

"That's right." So now I've done a lot of research on history to determine the identity of the Ghost Ship.── ”

It was an honest idea, but Mike was in tune with it.

The mysterious ghost ship was real. However, it was not possible to investigate it directly.

With reference to the shape of the Ghost Ship, Mike investigated whether pirates who might qualify as such existed in past history.

"──So, it happened." I still remember it very clearly. A neckless bow statue hanging from the bow of that ghost ship. At first, I thought the common goddess was broken. I was curious about my stretched and broken arm, as if I was holding something up, and I looked into it with all the possibilities in mind. Then it was found. Vapor Hollow, a pirate with Durahan in his hand, as his bow statue. "

Mike, who had spoken so angrily, continued to speak from there.

The pirate "Vapor Hollow" existed about 300 years ago. It was a time of war in which all countries were fighting for control of their waters.

It was at that time that the government-approved pirates appeared. The government gave the pirates an exonerating mark that they were willing to plunder any ship of another country. And [Vapor Hollow] was one of those pirates, and it was the strongest pirate who sunk the most ships.

"──So, that's the one I'm concerned about." No matter which history book you read, it doesn't say anything about the end of this pirate. For some reason, it's suddenly disappearing from history. "

Such a pirate appears as a ghost ship. Is there some kind of incompetence? Or do you have a grudge? Or is there something I want to tell you? Why does the pirate "Vapor Hollow" appear? Mike gets excited when he gets intrigued.

According to her, the Ghost ship is still under investigation. In addition to collecting the history of the time, he was looking into the relevance of the sightings from various aspects.

"Was it buried in the darkness of history, or was there something else? It's definitely something I'm curious about."

"Right? What happened in the past?" How does it lead to the occurrence of occult phenomena? If we know the causal relationship, we may be able to figure out the occult one day! "

People get scared because they don't know how to do it. And fear is what unlocks its true identity and gives it peace of mind.

Even now, I still feel that the voice of that time can be heard from somewhere. Mike muttered, and when he saw the figure of the Water Spirit at the end of the hallway, he ran, "Look, this way."

By the way──

Mira ran after Mike like that, and suddenly asked the Spirit King about the point she was concerned about.

In this world, the Spirit is established as a general existence. Therefore, unlike in the modern times where Mira lived, it is no longer an occult existence, but for some reason I have the expectation that it will do something about such a problem as being a ghost.

But is this assumption correct? I just asked the Spirit King about it. I replied that I could not deal with such occult species.

I can understand spiritual parts such as souls, but even with a spirit king, it seems that ghosts and orchestras are not specializations.

Instead, they told me that it would be faster to go to church. It seems that the ghosts belong to God.

(What a complicated relationship....)

The Spirit King's request at that time turned out to be ineffective. However, I also got a promise that I could ask the church for help when I had to.

If it's a church, there's a way. Mira recalled the medal she had received from the archbishop when she donated to the church before, but she felt safe when she had to. She stroked her chest again.

You're finally here!

"Hee, this is that Dunbalf...!"

The Institute of Modern Technology of the Commission on this day. Mira arrived at a place that would be the first dedicated room where especially important meetings and discussions for development would take place, and was welcomed by the many artisans who waited there.

Almost all the craftsmen looked at Mira with an interesting look, rejoicing that they had been waiting for her.

Dunbalf was worthy of being called the wisest man in appearance alone. That's the opposite now, isn't it?

All the top craftsmen are here. And many of the top players, the Nine Sages, were also deeply connected. That's why I was so surprised by the change in Dunbalf's eyes.

How dare you melt away like this.

This is the same ability as before, isn't it? Interesting.

This is it, right?

"I don't hate this gap."

Mira and Dunbalf. The artisans began to observe Mira's whole body, as if they were interested in the difference.

Moreover, because everyone here has a similar or narrow sense of exploration, there was no one here to pay attention to the behavior of the person who was sexually harassed.

Is it near or over the line? Mira who can see that and this and this.

Of all these, no one stopped sexual harassment, but some naturally questioned it. Yes, that's the question Mike threw at Mira earlier.

"So why do you want── a girl?──"

"──That's what I already told Mike." If it bothers you, ask her! "

Sometimes it's a hassle again, but in order not to make extra penetration here, Mira said, "It's more than that!" Before being reminded, I let the Machina Guardian's materials slip to the table.

I've been waiting for you!

"Oh, the glow of neurons and crystals. I wonder how many years it's been... for the first time in decades!"

"Oh, this is a fine clear matériel." This will be done! "

Either way, the artisans here were experts in production. It seems that my interest in ultra rare materials has prevailed over the mystery of Mira's existence.

When I surround the table first, I start to get paranoid when I get the materials to fight, and I start to imagine that I can do this.

Particularly, raid materials of high difficulty were rarely available on the market due to a sharp decline in the number of challengers. That was the first time in decades that a McKinnagardian had been destroyed.

Therefore, it was natural that they, the craftsmen, would give priority to you, and even if it was Mira, it was a reaction that was in line with the aim.

(That's not it......)

However, in front of the current situation, which suddenly lost interest, Mira remembered the line that she had heard somewhere, "Was it a game with me?"

I wanted to stop by so long ago, but I'm not looking forward to it now. If you just put out the material, no one will even care about it.

"Oh, this is..."

"This is the first time I've seen you..."

The artisans were exhilarated by such Mira, but the only rare material among them was that where no one touched their hands and stared with an unusual nervousness.

Yes, it is the rarest material available from the Machina Aguardian. The ultimate rarest material in the gaming era, with only one hand counting.

It was Apolon's eyes.

In front of a substitute that doesn't know if there will be another one, not to mention that it can't be priced, there seems to be a reluctance to touch it cheaply even at this committee on the Rocky Day.

"Come on, it's quite a fine product, isn't it?"

In front of the breathtaking craftsmen, Mira grabbed it with pride. I'll show you how to hold it like a basketball.

At that moment, the craftsmen were dumbfounded. But no one said anything cheerful. After all, Mira was the owner.

”Dunbalf... no, it's called the Spirit Queen now”

The Spirit Queen is the stone!

"Thank you for the wonderful material!"

The hearts of the craftsmen who were attracted to the materials finally returned to Mira who brought them.

"Hmm. Good."

I was grateful and praised for the attention again, and it was Mira who seemed to be even less than full.

So instead of storing your gear, you said you'd get this material.

"What kind of things should I make!?"

I'll make you anything!

Craftsmen who are enthusiastic to come quickly.

I promised to donate all the remaining materials instead of using Machinaga-Diane materials to build new gear.

That's why everyone has a different temper. The desire to be more active and acquire better materials was evident from his whole body.

Even though the craftsmen are full of desires, their skills are real. If you leave it to me, it will definitely produce the highest quality weaponry.

And when you donate the Machina Guardian materials, the lab will provide you with everything else you need.

Some of them are collected from all over the world for research purposes, so there is a wide variety of materials stockpiled here. Moreover, if it wasn't for the scarcity of the wrong order of magnitude, it would have been quite a valuable material.

Therefore, Mira would be able to make most of what she wanted here.

Well, then, what do you want everyone to make?──

While the craftsmen's attention gathered, Mira presented a well-thought-out new equipment proposal.

First of all, what Mira wanted was something that could enhance her stamina.

Stamina. It's the part of the world that may have had the most impact on the top class in the real world.

There was a status of stamina in the game era, but it did not appear as a feeling. There were various penalties that could be incurred if I kept pushing myself out of my stamina.

But now that it's real, it's very different. No matter how strong you are, if you get tired, your concentration will be distracted and you will not be able to demonstrate 100% of your potential.

Your breath rises, your fatigue bursts, and your legs become so tired that you can't move.

That was the reality, and the current Mira's body was not so much different from ordinary people except for the height of magic power.

If I ran around as hard as I could, I'd run out of stamina in no time.

Until now, I had been skilled as a summoning magician and managed to deceive her, but Mira was not optimistic that it would continue to make sense in the future.

I was able to raise my muscle strength by summoning weapons. As for the stamina, I used the power assist function of armed summoning to compensate for it.

However, to the extent of making up, if you move, you will accumulate fatigue accordingly. At the moment, the lack of stamina was Mira's weak point.

That's why I took advantage of the trigger and tried to compensate for the weakness with my equipment.

I see, stamina.──

"In this case, the most efficient form is──"

"Connect the neuronal crystal to the etemite.──"

If you don't mind a stamina specialization, why don't you use the Boulder King's core?──

Mira says hope, or no, and plans line up here all the time.

Synergy by combining materials. In addition, the incidence of the effect by the form. The craftsmen who were deeply familiar with the diverse and intricately intertwined elements suddenly became very enthusiastic in their search for an optimal solution.

To earn the best rewards: Machina Guardian Materials. But there is a glimpse of a desire to go above and beyond to create the finest pieces as a craftsman.

(There's one more thing... well, it's okay if I calm down...)

Is it also the soul of the craftsman? Specialist jargon becomes disruptive, and exchanges unfold that craftsmen would not have understood if they were not one another.

In the meantime, Mira, who had also been left alone, decided to relax and drink a thick cheese au lait while waiting for the conversation to come to a close.
