Magicraft Meister Part 1

"What are you doing?"

Reiko took up the stick that the red-haired girl was holding without a second thought. As she does so, a small spark seems to fly.

"What?"

"It's a dangerous toy, isn't it?"

Reiko snatched the stick and broke it in half.

"Hey, hey, hey... ......"

At that moment, an old man from a neighboring stall said,

"Hey, if you're going to make noise, do it somewhere else. You're hurting my business."

Jin, who had lost his timing to interrupt the argument between the two, said,

"Oh, I'm sorry. Reiko, stop it. And you, come here for a minute."

He took the red-haired girl by the arm and took her to the shade of a tree a little far from the stall. And then,

"I'm sorry for what my friend Reiko did to you.

I'm sorry. Reiko was looking mysterious behind her. The girl said,

"Ah, ah, who the hell are you people?　< with your bare hands, or snap it in two, or something like that ......!　My paralyzing wand!　What are you doing?　It cost me a fortune!"

"Calm down for now."

Jin hurried to calm the girl down, as she was about to start screaming again if he left her alone.

"Ha-ha-ha!"

"Haa, haa," he said to the girl who was gasping for air,

"Anyway, let me introduce myself. I'm Jin. This is Reiko. And you?

I'm Beena.

Nice to meet you, Beena.

Jin takes the staff that Reiko still has in her hand.

"So, you have a small thunder magic stone in your grip..."

"What?"

"You spread it all over the wand so that you get an electric shock when you touch it.

What?　What?

The wand is made of ...... ash, huh? It's true that it's a good conductor of magic for wood, but it's only wood, so it doesn't seem to be very efficient.

"What?　What?　What?

"The magic formula for activating the Magi Formula can be found at ....... Wow, that's sloppy writing. You're wasting more than half of your magic power."

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

Bina can't hide her surprise as Jin easily analyzes the principle of operation of the paralyzing wand.

"Oh, you said Jin, who the hell are you?"

"I'm ...... a magecraftsman."

Jin said as he handed the broken staff back to Bina. Magecraftsman" seemed to go over better.

"You too?"

"You too?" "Does that mean that Bina is a magecraftsman too?"

Yes, I am. I've been training under the teacher Gladia Hampton for two years now!

Bina is puffing out her not-so-large chest,

"Who is that?"

Jin's reaction was something like this.

"You don't know who that is ......?"

"No, I don't."

"<> is a renowned magecraftsman!

"I see."

In contrast to Bina, who is furious, Jin is calm.

"Well, anyway, I apologize for disparaging your products and breaking your wand.

Jin apologizes again. Bina, too, was impressed by Jin's honest apology,

"Oh, I'm sorry for waving my paralyzed cane at you out of the blue, too.

She bowed her head, but then noticed something,

"Yes, that's right!　You told me that my work was poor, didn't you!

"Yeah, that's why I said I was sorry."

"I'm not mad at you, no, I'm a little mad at you, but..."

Beena is at a loss for words. She was thinking about it with a frown and a red face, but then she seemed to have made up her mind,

"Shoddy" means you can make something better, right?　Please!　Give me your power!"

"What?"

The conversation takes an unexpected turn, and Jin is taken aback.

"Please!　I really need the money!　I need to sell my products!　But I can't sell any of them!　I don't know what to do!　I don't know what to do!　Please help me!

Wait a minute!

She calmed Beena's outburst again,

"Let me explain in order. First, Beena needs money, right?

Yes, she does!

And why is that?

Do I have to explain?

Beena looks at me with a downcast, upturned eyes. She looks at me with a sullen expression on her face, a far cry from her earlier behavior.

"Well, I don't know. If I'm going to help you, I'm going to need to know why. What's in it for me anyway?"

"U...... okay. I'm ashamed to tell you. ...... to cure my brother and sister.

"They're sick. So they need a doctor, medicine. What about your parents?"

Bina's face clouds over as she is asked this question. Then she says in a sad voice,

"They got sick when I was studying with Ms. Gladia Hampton.

"Oh, I see. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Bina's voice was cheerful as she bowed her head to Jin,

"It's okay. So, I had to make up the tuition for the teacher to teach me, so I have no money even though I have debts."

Bina, who had been so strong, told me the situation. Jin is not good at this kind of thing.

"I understand. I don't know what I can do, but I can help you with the cane.

"Really?　Thank you, Jin!

Bina jumped for joy.

"Well, what can I do for you?"

"Well, I guess we should close up for the day and you can take me to Beena's workshop.

"Yes, yes. It's a dirty place.

And so, Jin was forced to help Beena, a red-haired girl he had just met.
