Magicraft Meister Part 1

404 - - 12-54 Elza

"Poison?"

Gerhard, the emperor's wife, exclaimed in astonishment.

"Poison? Who did that to your grandfather?

Saki was outraged.

"...... Erza, can you cure him?"

"I don't know. "I don't know, but I'll try. <

"What?

The Minister of Magical Arts is surprised that Erza has used the healing magic of Ganesung. It is no wonder that in the current Shoro Empire, there are only a few people who can use Ganesung, and they can be counted on one hand.

However, Erza did not care about such things and applied the genesung again and again. But her face does not clear.

"......Dame. My liver is not functioning. Poison is interfering."

Basically, healing magic activates the body's natural functions. And one of the functions of the liver is detoxification. If the liver cannot detoxify the accumulated poisons, it is only logical that no matter how much the liver is activated, it will not return to its original state.

It may be thanks to the healing magic that he was able to lead his daily life, even though he would have been bedridden under normal circumstances.

Jin guessed that she had been able to stay in bed until today because she had continued to heal all the problems except for her liver, which had accumulated poison.

Meanwhile, Elsa was pondering how she could cure the Marquis. Jin gave her some advice.

"Erza, do you know what kind of poison it is?"

"Yeah, probably arsenic."

"Arsenic. ......"

The poison is so well-known that people in this world don't seem to know about it. <>," they whispered to each other.

After thinking about it, Jin comes up with a plan.

"Elsa, try to use <>. It can be used to pinpoint the poison only.

Engineering magic cannot work on living bodies. But, Jin thought that it could be effective for poisons in a living body.

"...... is difficult. But I'll try."

Elsa focuses her mind. She uses extraction while searching for the poison in the liver through examination (diagnosis).

It is a very delicate process. But Elsa did it in about 15 minutes. A small amount of the extracted arsenic fell to the side of the Marquis in a gray powder.

Carefully wrapping it in a cloth to keep it out of the hands of others, Elsa let out a sigh of relief.

"I think I've removed more than 90% of the arsenic."

After saying this, Erza, exhausted, collapsed in a heap. Edgar supported her.

"Thank you, Edgar."

Edgar gently sat her down on the vacant sofa.

"El ...... the? Are you ...... that Elsa?"

The Marquis rolled his eyes at her.

Elsa's wig had slipped off when she stumbled, and now that she was lying down, it was completely off, leaving her with platinum blonde hair. Her protective glasses had also been removed, revealing her true face.

"Well, you're okay, aren't you? ...... Yeah, my body feels a lot better."

The loss of strength would not return immediately, but the feeling of discomfort in his body was gone, and the Marquis felt exhilarated for the first time in a long time.

"Marquis Theoderic, Elsa worked very hard to heal you, even though she did not want to marry you.

The Empress said these words as if to admonish him, but the Marquis knew what he was talking about.

"Well, Elsa, thank you. Your marriage is annulled. You can go your own way."

"Oh, thank you, thank you."

Erza felt the stagnant feeling in her heart melt away.

"Jin-kun, Erza, thank you for your hard work. You saved a valuable human resource. I thank you."

The Empress said happily to them. The Prime Minister and the Minister of Magical Technology both smiled.

"I will make an official announcement about Elsa later.

"Now, then, I would like to speak to Mr. Jin, or rather, Miss Jin."

Now it is the turn of the Empress Gerhardt to speak about her request to Jin.

"I told you before, I want you to teach me <>.

After her, Prime Minister Jung Forss began to speak.

"I have also spoken with Degas and Gebhard Ackermann, and they have told me that the airship is a combination of <> and magic, isn't it?"

As one would expect from the head of state, he correctly recognized the roots of the technology used in the airship.

"It is immeasurable how much the study of science can benefit our country and, indeed, the world," we concluded. What do you think, Mister Jin?"

At this point, the empress took over again.

"I would like to bestow upon you the title of "Magi Engineer Maestro", the title of Viscount, and the title of Lord Jin, as well as a fiefdom. What do you think, would you be willing to serve in my country?"

"......"

Jin wondered what to say to this sudden question,

"You don't have to answer me right now. I don't need an answer right now, but I would like an answer by the end of this month.

Today was the 21st, the last day of June, which meant that he had until the 29th to give me an answer.

Okay, I will think it over.

"I hope you have a good answer for me."

With these words, the Empress left her seat. The viziers followed her. The Marquis Theoderic also stood up.

"Jin, Miss Elsa. I cannot thank you enough. If you ever come to our lands, you will be welcome.

After thanking Jin and Erza, the marquis walked unsteadily away. Although his liver had healed, he had not regained his strength. His attendants tried to support him, but he was interrupted by Saki.

"...... Saki?"

"......Grandfather, I'll take you home."

Saki turned away a little, her cheeks reddening somewhat, but she came forward.

"Oh, I see. Well, thank you. I'll take care of it.

Saki then walked out of the meeting room, supporting the Marquis. Jin and Erza silently watched her go.

"......"

"......"

After a few moments of silence, Jin called out to Erza.

"Shall we go, too?"

"Yes."

Jin and Erza left the conference room side by side. Edgar and Reiko, perhaps reading the atmosphere, followed in silence.

But then an unexpected person walks by.

"Elsa! It's Erza!

Erza shudders at the sound of his voice.

"...... father."

She had left her wig and protective goggles off, so it was only natural that she would be recognized.

There was a sound. Georg, the father, slapped Erza on the cheek.

"Ah!"

The force of the slap made Erza stagger, and Edgar barely supported her. Elsa held her slapped cheek, tears welling up in her eyes.

"You filial son of a b*tc*! What have you been doing all this time? Come on now!"

She tried to grab Erza's hand, but Jin interrupted her.

Wait a minute, Viscount.

"What are you, ......? Oh, you're the magi engineer who built the airship. Jin Nido, you say?

Yes, Jin Nido. Erza is not your tool.

You talk like you know what you're talking about. Don't let strangers tell you what to do with your son.

Georg is much bigger and fitter than Jin. He is an active military man and has subordinates around him.

But Jin was unafraid to say what he wanted to say to Georg's face.

Erza is a full-fledged person now. No matter how good a parent you are, you can't just do whatever you want to your daughter.

"Don't be cheeky. ...... a full-fledged person?"

Yes. Yes. Her Majesty the Empress approves. I'm sure the scribe has it on record.

"Hmm, well, even so, I'm Elsa's father. What's wrong with a father bringing home his daughter?"

Georg took his paternal rights as a shield. It is true that Elsa's independence has not yet been granted in the Shoro Kingdom.

There is no system of family register or certificate of residence in this world, but if there were, Elsa's domicile would be under Viscount Randall.

Since neither Jin nor the old man had expected to find Elsa at this time, they could not resist him when he brought up the issue of paternity.

"Well, I guess you get it."

Snickering, Georg looked at a man who was standing nearby. The man stepped forward and faced Jin.

"That airship was quite a thing, but it's just a toy. As a weapon, it still needs power.

The man was Marcus, the creator of the giant golem.

"The prince of some country praised the giant golem that some unknown person brought out, but it's just for show. The bigger it gets, the worse the performance of the golem.

Jin is about to argue with her because it's not a far-fetched opinion, ...... and turns his attention to Erza.

While Jin and Marcus were exchanging their opinions, his father Georg grabbed Erza's arm and pulled her to him.

Erza tries to resist, but she is unable to break free due to the overwhelming difference in their physiques.

"Viscount, please don't force me.

It was Edgar who defended Erza.

The automata, made from materials from Horai Island, boasts a physical capacity several times greater than that of humans.

"What are you doing?"

It was easy for Edgar to grab Georg's arm and pull him away from Erza.

"Are you a wooden puppet, you dare to defy me?"

"No, I was only protecting my master, Erza."

Edgar casually intervened between Georg and Erza.

"...... what?"

"What is it?"

By now, onlookers had heard the commotion and gathered around.

Georg thought he was going to back down, but instead, he became arrogant. Now he turns to Jin and speaks out.

"You are seducing my daughter, aren't you?

Reiko was not silent at that.

"Enough! I will not allow you to insult my father any further!
