Magicraft Meister Part 1

The next day, Jin started to build the fifth column (Quinta), leaving the mass production and deployment of the VTOL to Lao Tzu.

The basic structure is the same as that of the Covert Air Mobility Unit (SP). The skeleton is made of hollow light silver, muscles of magical fiber, and outer skin of magical skin.

It has about 30% of the functions of the initial Reiko, but is usually kept to the level of a quick human being.　

The process is fast because it is a process that has been done many times and there are two assistants, Reiko and Anne. Reiko and her team made the basic parts such as the skeleton, while Jin made the control core and other magical devices (magi devices).

Countermeasures against slave rewriting magic are the same as those of the covert task force (SP), but since they are secret detectives, a magic recording stone (MagiRecorder) was added purely for recording purposes.

In addition, we have added a function that allows the user to play with their appearance. Specifically, hair length, eye color, height, and body shape.

The length of hair can be changed by inserting and removing hair from the pores, just like a certain famous person. The eyes are designed to be replaceable like contact lenses. The replacement parts are stored inside the body.

The height can be changed about 10 cm by adjusting the play at the shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, groin, knee, and ankle joints. The body shape can be made to look fat by letting water in between the two layers of magical skin.

Hair color can be easily dyed. Dye is also an equipment.

The attack power is a stun gun and lightning magic. In addition, his body art is enough to fight against people. Security measures to erase memories and information are installed just in case.

The base of action is the same as that of the covert task force (SP). In order to blend in with other people, we asked Meene to cooperate with us and strengthened our common sense. Well, it is doubtful that Meene knows common sense, but she is better than Jin and the others.

In that case. It is an aside that Meene was also a little surprised at the knowledge transfer (trans-info).

With the support of Lao Tzu and Reiko, and with the duplication process, the fifth row (quinta) of 100 was completed in the morning.

As originally planned, in order of size, there were 40 adult male figures and 30 adult female figures. For disguise, there were 10 boys, 10 girls, and 10 Reiko dolls.

"Okay, let's name them ......."

Jin named the adult male type <, the adult female type <>, the boy type <>, the girl type <>, and the Reiko type <>. Each is numbered from 1.

"Master (My Lord), Vertical Take Off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft No. 1 is completed.

Lao Tzu had just completed his VTOL.

When Jin went outside, he found a VTOL painted in matte black. It was completely stealth-equipped. It was quite large.

According to Lao Tzu, it was intended to be used for transportation.

"Oh, that's nice!"

Jin said happily, and Lao Tzu asked him to give it a name.

"A name. A name ...... hmmm, I would have liked to be named Cloud Sparrow ......."

Jin's image of Skylark was "skylark" because of its ability to fly vertically.

"It's a bird of prey that can stop in mid-air. ...... Okay, Falcon!"

It is a falcon. Falcons don't often stop in mid-air to look for prey, but that's Jin.

"Okay, I'll name it Falcon 1. We'll roll out 10 more below.

"Okay, you got it."

Jin was about to start work on the next one when Lao Tzu said, "Master.

"My Lord, Erza is calling for you in Kunlun Island."

"Elsa?　Is something wrong?

No, she wants to have lunch with you.

I remembered that she said that to me about two hours ago when I went to the Kunlun Island to ask Meene to help me copy the common people.

As usual, when it comes to making things, Jin is the only one who can't think of anything else.

* * * * * *

"Brother Jin, welcome!

"Hi, Erza, Meine.

I invited you to join us for lunch.

This is the same Meine. I'd believe her if she told me she was being controlled by hypnosis.

"No, I'm glad you told me that your father would have skipped meals if I had left him alone.

Reiko, who has been following me, reveals this to me.

"I knew it! Brother Jin is a crafty idiot too!

Erza said with a giggle.

"I see. Well, thank you very much. Please enjoy your meal.

Meine made freshly baked bread, plain omelette, light vegetable soup, grilled fish, and fruit salad.

It was just right for lunch.

Thank you very much.

When he finished eating, he was offered a glass of Citran juice.

"Meane, can we move now?"

Jin asked, and Meine answered in the affirmative.

"Yes, I'm almost better now, and I think I'll feel better if I keep moving.

"That's good."

Jin stares at the number 100 maids in the distance.

"Those golem maids have been very good to me. But please let me take care of your ...... daughter Elsa.

Jin told her not to take it too hard and warned the golem maids to be careful.

"Um, so I have a favor to ask you..."

Meane, who had finished cleaning up, opened her mouth.

"Hmm?　What is it?"

"Well, I was wondering if I could go and get a change of clothes or something for Elsa and ...... me.

I came here with nothing but my clothes on, so I don't have a single change of clothes. Even if Jin were to make them, he would be afraid to wear underwear, and Meine cannot handle the threads of a ground spider.

"Well, I think we can go to a place that is not dangerous ...... ah, Potlock."

The port town of Potlock. It's where Jin met Erza and Reinhardt. It's the town where Jin met Elsa and Reinhardt and where he competed in the Golem Boat Race. I don't think the Unifilers have gotten that far.

"Potlock. I miss it."

Elsa seemed to think so too and mentioned the name of the town.

"Yes, I have been there before and I remember that the selection of goods was not so bad.

So Jin took Meene to Potrock,

"Brother Jin, I want to go with you.

Erza said, "Brother Jin, I want to go with you.

"Well, it's at the southern tip of the Elias Kingdom, so there's no danger, right?

Jin thinks about it and gives his permission. Well, I'm going to deploy the fifth column (quinta), which has just been completed, as an escort.

Then Jin realizes something. Let's ask for clothes for automata. So he asks Meane,

"That's just right. I'd like to order a set of clothes for my automata.

Meene readily agrees. Meine readily agreed.

"Yes, of course.

First, she and Jin move from Kunlun Island to Horai Island. The security system is still in place, which means that the transfer cannot take place without Jin's magic pattern.

Jin called Deneb 30, a female adult.

"Yes, Chief.

She is dressed in the same maid's uniform as the golem maid. I don't know what they will say if I show her naked in front of Erza and the others.

I want you to escort Erza and Meane to Potlock.

"Yes, sir."

There is a reason why they can't come and go without Jin's magic pattern.

So Jin gives them 10 gold coins. That's the equivalent of one million yen.

"Elsa, Meane, I'll deposit the money in this Deneb 30."

We know that Meane and her friends have very little money.

"Excuse me, Mr. Jin. Thank you very much."

Meane, sensing Jin's concern, bowed her head. For the first time in his life, Jin was deeply moved by the thought that this was the same Meane.

"As you may have guessed, this Kunlun Island, Horai Island, and the Warp Gate are absolutely secret.

"Yes, I will never tell anyone."

Although Jin has instructed Deneb 30 to be careful about such matters, it is still reassuring to confirm it directly and verbally.

* * * * * *

From Horai Island, we fly to Potrock in an instant. We exit the cave at the sea erosion cave on the coast. Deneb30 has transcribed the basic knowledge and led them to the town without hesitation.

"It's been a long time."

"It really does."

Elsa left Potlock by carriage on February 16th. About a month and a half ago.

"You must have amazing magic skills, Gin-sama, since you arrived so quickly.

Meine was again impressed. Erza agreed.

"Yes."

After staying here for a month or so, Meine had some familiarity with the area and was able to get to the clothing store without hesitation.

In this world, the aristocrats wear high quality custom-made clothes, and the common people wear ready-made clothes or second-hand clothes. This time, we went to a ready-to-wear store. This is the store where Meane and the other servants work.

At the store, I bought three dark blue one-piece dresses and apron dresses for myself and 10 pairs of underwear.

For Erza, I bought a dress, a blouse, a skirt, etc., and 10 pairs of underwear.

The reason for the large number of underwear is that I knew that I would not be able to come here often to buy underwear.

For the automata, he bought underwear, dresses, blouses, and skirts.

"Now we just need to buy the fabrics and go home.

Meane, who could make her own fabrics, bought more linen fabrics. Deneb is carrying everything for us.

The long spring day is almost over by the time we return from our shopping spree.

On the way back, Elsa glanced at the harbor and saw several familiar catamaran boats.

（Good luck, Marcia!)

Elsa does not say it out loud, but she gives a hearty cheer to her old acquaintance as she heads back home.
