Magicraft Meister Part 1

The fortified city of Asund is surrounded by a 10-meter-high wall.

Its shape is almost square, 5 km on a side, and the Royal Castle is located inside the square, bordering the northern wall.

The defensive wall, called the Outer Palace, extends from the northern wall at the same height, forming a nearly square shape of the Outer Palace.

The northern wall of the Outer Palace is the wall of Asunto, and the royal army would be launched from the gate in the north.

Protected by the outer palace is the inner palace, where the king resides and serves as the political center of the city. The wall separating the Outer Palace from the Inner Palace is 3 meters high, less than one-third the height of the city wall.

Therefore, the outer wall can be seen from the center of the inner palace.

The huge golem was standing taller than the wall seen from the inner palace, and was looking down on us.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa ......"

"Oh, that's ........."

As the terrified viewers watched in horror, they saw someone standing on the wall from the golem's palm.

Black clothes, a silver helmet like no one had ever seen before. A tall man. The shape of the figure suggested a man.

"Who is he? Is he an enemy or a friend?

All of us who were staring at him had the same thought.

"Gentlemen!"

The voice of the mysterious person sounded. Some kind of magic must have been used, reaching every corner of the inner and outer palace.

I am deus ex machina. Some people call me the mysterious golem master.

Jin spins his words as if reading from a manuscript he prepared after consulting with the old man. His voice is of course slightly changed.

"Deus ex machina?

"I've never heard of it. Who are you?　What do they want?

The crowd is abuzz. But then, with a wave of his hand, the man who calls himself deus ex machina falls silent again.

"War is futile. It produces nothing.

Deus ex machina speaks.

"The land is large and the people are few. Do not commit the folly of fighting amongst your own kind.

Some of us agreed with him.

"Humans have not yet caught up with the culture of the time of the magical wars. It is true. But it is foolish to look to the past. For the past will never return.

Some raised an eyebrow at his words.

"Don't look to the past. Focus on the present. Strive to create the future."

The deus ex machina speaks even louder, shouting.

"You are free to listen to this advice or not. But if you do not heed my advice, I have my own ideas.

Deus ex machina then points at the broken golem.

"Look!"

People look at it. Their eyes widen in astonishment.

As soon as they saw the destroyed golem, it became red-hot, then white-hot, and melted.

"Do you understand?　I want only one thing: peace. Coexistence, if you will. It shouldn't be too hard."

The deus ex machina breaks off and looks around at the people.

"I do not appear unless there is a conflict. Think about it."

With that, Deus ex machina leaps onto the shoulder of the giant golem. At the same time, the giant golem turns around and faces away from Asunto Castle.

At that moment, a magic knight chants an attack spell.

"<>......!　Why?　I can't use magic!"

Deus ex machina turned from the golem's shoulder,

"I forgot to tell you. I can not only disable magic, I can make it useless. Stop wasting your time."

He points at the knight who just tried to use magic on him.

"Gee!"

Then the magic knight let out a short scream and suddenly went rigid. He fell into a coma.

"I'm afraid he was a puppet of the Unifiler. But this should bring him back to his senses. Later I will send you a list of those who are known to be puppets."

Deus ex machina then turns his back on the people again.

"Well, I hope we don't meet again."

And this time, Deus ex machina leaves with the giant golem.

At the Horaijima command center, Jin fainted in agony.

"Aaahhh, I'm so embarrassed!

He had finished reading the script and couldn't stand the tone of voice that was so terrible.

"Goshujin-sama, please calm down. You looked great!"

Anne was comforting him.

"Before the war, it was normal for you to talk like that, to be so vain.

The aristocrats used to make such exaggerated statements in skirmishes between countries, Anne says.

"...... I guess they're exaggerating."

Anne's consolations don't seem to be helping much.

Then the old man's request came in, and Jin changed his mind.

"The situation unfolded almost exactly as we expected, so we can deal with the aftermath as we planned.

"Well, I'll go with Kai.

"Well, I'm going to the village of Kaina, so call me if you need anything."

"Well, I'm going to the village of Kaina, so call me if anything happens.

Jin, who had done such an unorthodox thing to stop the war, felt unsettled and rushed to the village of Kaina in search of solace.

"Ah, Onii-chan!　What are you doing?　It's almost sunrise."

Hannah exclaimed as soon as she saw Jin's face. She came back late, so she was a bit embarrassed.

"Sorry, sorry, I had some things to do at the other house..."

"Oh my God. I was so surprised, I thought you were gone again!

"I'm sorry. I'll be in touch from now on.

Jin apologized as he stroked Hannah's head. As he stroked her head, he felt his frayed heart calm down.

"You know, I went to the forest today to gather some logs. Uncle Rock and the others got a lot of mountain lions this morning, so they're going to make a kunsei.

Jin remembered that Rock had said something like that when he saw the snow room.

"I see. Do you want to help me make it?"

"Yes!"

Hannah, in a better mood, pulls Jin by the hand and heads for the smoked fish market.

At that time, Titan 2 and Reiko returned to Horai Island. They are the first to return via the warp gate.

"Old man, where is your father?"

Reiko asked as she could not see Jin, who was usually around.

.

The old man told the truth, a little worried that Reiko might be in a bad mood.

"I see. You went to see Hannah, didn't you?

But despite her concern, Reiko smiles and says to him.

"It seems that Hannah is the most important thing for your father, doesn't it?"

The old man felt a little strange, so he decided to ask Reiko boldly.

Then, to my surprise, Reiko laughed.

"You noticed that, didn't you? Yes, next to your father, you are the most important person in my life.

>

"Of course. Hannah is very much like your mother.

Yes. Adriana Barbora Tsezi's mother. Of course, there is no similarity in magical patterns. On the contrary, Hanna can't use magic.

>

"Yes. When your mother was young, or rather, when she was a child, she must have looked like that.
