Magicraft Meister Part 1

Aside from miso soup, bread, soup, grilled fish, salad, and fruit were served for lunch.

"We are not so extravagant," he said.

Eckart Tekres also ate the same food as Jin and the others.

After a leisurely lunch, cold tête-à-tête was served. Over a drink, the conversation resumes.

"Now, do you all have any requests?

"Yes, I do."

The atmosphere in the ECARTO finally allowed us to talk about something that we had not been able to talk about before.

"I was wondering if you could show me your cat."

"Oh, you know cats? I'm very happy to hear that."

Eckart smiled and looked at one of the ladies-in-waiting. The lady of the house hurried out of the room and soon returned. She returned immediately with a white cat in her arms.

"This is one of my cats, <>.

It had the same name as the golem maid Jin had made on Horai Island. The reason for this is immediately apparent when you look at the cat.

"She has beautiful eyes, doesn't she?"

Her eyes were light blue.

"They look a lot like Erza's eyes."

At Reinhardt's line, Erza looks into the cat's face.

"It looks like ......."

When Erza looked into Aqua's eyes, Aqua let out a single meow.

"Would you like to hold her?"

Eckart said, and the maid offered Aqua to Erza.

She reached out her hand and took the aqua. The weight and warmth of the creature could be felt.

"...... adorable."

Aqua seemed to be a gentle cat and showed no signs of being uncomfortable in Erza's arms for the first time. In fact, she was so friendly that she even rubbed her cheek against Erza's.

"He's very much in love with you, isn't he? That cat is the quietest and most friendly cat in our house.

Eckart said with a beaming face, perhaps happy that his cat was liked.

"Please let me hold him too."

Berthe moved closer to Elsa.

"Yes."

Berthe was happy to receive Aqua and hold her to her chest.

"He's so cute! I can't wait to hold Reinhardt-sama's baby in my arms.

She also blushed immediately after saying something like, "Let's see, ________.

"Let's see,........."

Saki also held the baby with some trepidation and relaxed her cheeks at the feel of the baby.

Stearina and Vivienne hugged Aqua in turn, and finally it was Jin's turn.

Jin was able to hold Aqua without getting clawed ....... And then...

"<>level 3 mild".

He chanted in a low voice so that Eckardt could not hear him, and transcribed the pattern of his actions onto the magi crystal he had in his pocket.

The mild option was added in order to avoid startling them and scratching them.

The reason for setting the level 3 when level 2 would have been sufficient is that, unlike humans, the contents of the transcription are mixed, so we wanted to increase the amount of transcription.

Finally, Reinhardt held Aqua.

"Pssshhhh!　Aqua is in Reinhardt's arms, without even a hair raising .......

"Hmm, it's warm."

Aqua's throat rumbles as he strokes the underside of his chin.

It seems that everyone was not so disgusted by Aqua.

The purpose of our visit is over, and we have had some unexpected gains.

The time is 2:00 p.m.. The conversation had died down and we thought it was time to leave, but just then.

Suddenly there was a flurry of activity in the house, and the door to the hall was opened with a loud bang.

"Master!　It's important!"

"Here!　You have a visitor!"

A craftsman-like man with a bloodthirsty look rushed into the room and shouted loudly, to which Eckart rebuked him.

I'm sorry, sir!　But, sir, the ship!"

"...... accident?"

Unable to see that the craftsman was too flustered to speak quickly, Eckardt jokingly speculated. Unfortunately, he was right.

"That's right!"

"...... what?　Tell me more!"

Eckart's face changed color and he questioned the craftsman as if he had forgotten that Jin and the others were with him.

The scaffold collapsed, 10 people were trapped!

"What?

Eckart stood up kicking the chair and said to Jin and the others.

"Please excuse us from the meeting. Something has gone wrong. Thank you for your time today.

He bowed lightly and was about to leave the room in a hurry when Jin called out to him.

"Wait a minute!　Is there anything we can do?"

The only thing he could think of was that an accident involving human life had occurred, such as a collapse or being pinned under the floor.

And Jin was not cold enough to ignore it. And neither were his friends.

"...... if there is someone injured, I will heal them."

"Yes, I heard what you said so far. Let us help you as much as we can.

Erza, Saki, Reinhard, Bertsch. And Stearina and Vivian.

"If lives are at stake, we must not hesitate here. If you have a complaint, we will hear it later. We have to rescue them first!

With that being said, Eckart seemed to have made up his mind.

"Alright, gentlemen, please come with your companions!"

And this time he ran to leave the room. Jin and the others followed.

They ran down a long corridor toward the back of the house, and through another corridor, until they came to a huge dock. Screams can be heard coming from there.

We crossed the yard and entered the dock, where we found ourselves in a state of screaming.

In the center of the dock, there was a huge wooden ship that seemed to be under construction, and wooden scaffolding had been built around it, but half of the scaffolding had collapsed and the workers were trapped under it.

The wooden scaffolding was half collapsed and the laborers were pinned under it. The construction material of the boat was also half collapsed and almost fell down.

Many of those who survived were slightly injured.

Some of the work golems were malfunctioning, apparently having been trapped under the scaffolding by the accident.

"This is terrible ......"

At a glance at the scene, Jin frowned at the devastation. Elsa and Saki also gasped. Bertsche bit her lip and clutched Reinhardt's arm tightly, while Stearina and Vivienne held each other's arms tightly without knowing it.

"Those of you who were safe, clear the scaffolding!　Those who were safe, clear the scaffold!

Eckardt shouted and reached out to move the collapsed scaffold himself, just then.

The remaining scaffolding collapsed and he fell.

"Look out!"

The black knight (Schwarz Ritter) jumped out. With his sturdy back, he catches the falling girders.

"Ah, ah ......"

Eckert looked pale. If the black knight (Schwarzritter) had not protected him, he would have taken a direct hit.

"Mr. Eckert, please evacuate everyone. We will take care of this.

At Jin's words, Eckart showed some hesitation,

"We'll make more progress without humans!"

He nodded his head and said that he and his team would take care of the situation.

"All hands, clear the dock!"

At the employer's words, the laborers and technicians evacuated, with the exception of Eckert.

"Mr. Eckert?"

Eckart, still looking a little pale, but resolute, says to Jin, who looks suspicious.

"As your employer and client, I will see this through to the end.

Jin nodded his head in agreement,

"Everyone!　Let's help the injured!

he called out to his colleagues.
