Magicraft Meister Part 1

The first day of July.

<

Eric, I want you to help make the village of Kaina rich. In return, we will help the Raglan Trading Company make a profit.

"Thank you, Mr. Jin."

"...... if you make Barbara unhappy, I'll gag you, okay?"

"Yes,......?

Meene, a little distance away, is listening with a wry smile. Erza is standing next to Meene.

"Mother, what is brother Jin talking about?

Meine wonders how to answer.

In the meantime, in the Shoro Kingdom, the Shoro Imperial Palace is being attacked by the Shoro family.

Meanwhile, in the Shoro Kingdom.

Meanwhile, at the Countess Randall's house, Reinhard Bertsche and his wife were preparing to leave.

They are heading for the village of Kaltz, the territory given to them by their father, Count Wolfgang Randall.

It takes about two hours by carriage to reach Karcz, which is located between Eksi and Banneh. The couple is alone on the road.

They were not even accompanied by a butler, as their father had insisted that they make their own arrangements for an aide-de-camp. Noir is the coachman.

A carriage loaded with luggage follows him. The driver of this carriage is Neon.

By the way, there is Saki's house, the Eschenbach house, on the way.

Reinhardt, who had received a message from Jin via manacam, made a detour to the Eschenbach house.

"Hello, Reinhard."

Jin and Saki were waiting there.

"Jin, have you finished your business already?　Saki, it's been a long time!

"Long time no see, Reinhard. Thanks to Jin and Erza. Thanks to Jin and Erza, I'm finally free of Grandfather now that Lisa's here."

Saki's speech is back to normal again, but she seems happier than before, probably because the Marquis is feeling better.

"Jin told me. You're going to the village of Kurtz?

"Oh, yes. I know it's tough, but the two of us have to go there first. He told us to find an aide or something over there.

"Your father is a very strict man, isn't he ......?"

Saki said with a wry smile.

"So... Jin, when we find a home over there, you can use it as a base.

If we set up a warp gate at Reinhardt's house, we can come and go as we please. Jin gratefully accepts the offer.

"According to the story, there is an old mansion left. It used to be a villa of some noble family or something. I'm thinking of taking care of it and living there.

"I see. I'll help you."

I'm interested too. Can I go with you?

So Jin, Reiko, Saki, and Aalu headed for the village of Kurtz in Jin's carriage, which was already back here. Reinhard and Bertsche also looked eager to ride in Jin's carriage.

At 10:00 a.m., they arrived at the village of Kaltz.

The village head greeted them.

"Welcome. Is this Mr. Reinhard Randall?　My name is Boyd, and I am the mayor of the village of Kaltz.

He is a man of middle height and middle age. His brown eyes are filled with a strong spirit, indicating that he is a man of ability.

"Yes, I am Reinhard Randall. This is my wife, Bertje.

"Ma'am, it's a pleasure to meet you."

After exchanging greetings, Boyd looks at Jin and the others behind him.

"Who are they?"

"Yes, they are my friends. They came along to congratulate me on my new assignment."

Boyd, satisfied with this explanation, leads them to the former aristocrat's house that Reinhardt had told him about. Both Reinhardt and Jin followed in the carriage, which drove slowly at a speed that matched the pace of the village chief.

It was a small village, about a 10-minute walk away.

"Well, here it is again.

A two-story stone building. It was cozy but stately. Ivy twines around the walls, reminding us of its age.

"Thanks for the tour. Well, there's no hurry, let's talk about the village again the day after tomorrow. ...... Oh, I only need you to take care of the horses."

We can repair the house and move in by ourselves, but we can't take care of the horses. Reinhard told the village head.

"Okay, sir. We will take care of them. See you the day after tomorrow.

Boyd returned with four horses. Even though they were gentle horses, he was very skillful in leading them and seemed to be able to trust them with his horses.

Reinhardt took another look at the pavilion. With a little work, it looks usable enough.

"Well, Belle, this is going to be our home from now on.

"Yes, we'll have to clean up first.

Jin also calls out to them.

"Reinhard, I'll help you."

"Yes, that would be a big help."

The house is surrounded by large trees and is quiet at best and lonely at worst.

However, it is convenient in the sense that it is out of sight.

Jin used the warp gate built into the carriage to call in 10 artisan (smith) golems and 10 golem maid perids from Horai Island.

"Oh, oh?"

Even though I knew of their existence, I was somewhat surprised when they were summoned together.

"Well, Reinhard, please instruct the craftsman (Smith) on the repairs in the house. Bertsche, please instruct Perid and the others on the housework.

Smith quickly repairs the damaged walls, creaking floors, broken stairs, and holey ceilings.

Perido and the others followed Berthe's instructions to clean and maintain the kitchen, parlor, living room, drawing room, bedroom, closet, and so on.

The work was done in an hour, and the house looked new.

The ivy was left as much as possible. He only mowed down the parts that blocked the windows, but left the rest.

"Well, it's quite nice," he said.

"It was red granite, so it matches the ivy.

The pavilion is built of red granite, which is rare in this region. Granite is a rock composed of rock-forming minerals such as mica, quartz, feldspar, and hornblende, of which feldspar with red color is called red granite.

The red feldspar is called red granite. It contrasts well with the green of the ivy. When the leaves turn red in the fall, they will be similar in color to each other again.

This mansion will be called << Ivy Mansion (Lanken Houses)>> in the future.

Once the cleaning is finished, it is time to bring in our belongings, but there are not so many things that we have brought this time.

We did not have much to carry this time, just bedding, a few changes of clothes, and a few office supplies. Since it is a two-hour ride by horse-drawn carriage, we can go back and pick up what we need again, or we can get it locally.

In fact, Eksi is a little closer than Banne, where Reinhardt's parents live, so we could go there to buy some things.

"Well, that's about right."

After we have finished bringing in our belongings, we take a rest. It is already lunchtime.

"Why don't we go to Horai Island?

Jin suggested.

"We have a lot to talk about."

"Well, if that's the case..."

"Okay."

Both of them agreed, and we headed for Horai Island through the warp gate attached to Jin's carriage. The craftsman (Smith) and Perid and the others also returned to the island.

I hope they will install it in one of the rooms of the pavilion someday," said Reinhardt.

Reinhardt said, "I hope they will install it in one of the rooms of the house eventually. Jin also thought it would be a good idea to build a basement and install it there.

The time difference is about five and a half hours, and it was almost evening in Horai Island.

"I'd like to have a meal anyway.

<

"Oh, they are already here."

When I went to the cafeteria, there was a menu suitable for lunch, even though it was late in the evening on Horaijima.

Freshly baked bread, Wiley jam, Citran marmalade.

Drinks were milk, Persian juice and Citran juice.

Salad and lightly cooked bacon.

"Thank you, Meane, Elsa."

"No, not at all. We'd like to join you for a drink.

The time difference between Kaina Village and Horai Island is two hours, so Meine and the others ate bread and drank juice as a snack.

After the meal, Jin started to speak.

"Now that everyone is here, I have something to tell you.
