Magicraft Meister Part 1

The area of the house that Jin received in Leuthart, the capital of the Shoro Kingdom, is a plot where there are many residences of middle class nobles.

The area of the site is uniformly about 500 sq.m. because it was built according to the city plan. The site is a square with a side of just over 40 meters.

On the right is the Countess Woodruff Arbelein von Elm, and on the left is the Viscount Volker Goltmann von Orck.

Across the street is the Viscounts Jorgens Heckerath von Paddock.

All of these families held important positions in various government ministries.

"......<>>?"

Yes, that's what I heard.

Viscount Heckerath, who lived in the house across the street, nodded broadly.

"I see. I knew you were a real expert in renovating houses."

Viscount Jorgens Heckerath von Paddock is the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Industry of the Shoro Empire.

"I'll never forget seeing his airship at the technology fair."

I'll never forget his airship," he muttered to himself, shaking his head.

Both of them work for the Ministry of Magic and Technology of the Shoro Kingdom, so they too were familiar with Jin's name and accomplishments.

"Maybe we should go say hello to him after we get settled."

Both families seemed to think so, but they were astonished when they suddenly saw the presence of Her Majesty the Empress.

"......You must be an important person after all if Her Majesty approves of you that much."

In Jin's mansion, the five-colored golem maids who had been assigned to him were working on the details.

In addition, the old man was also planning various ways to strengthen his security.

"Oh, there's a kitty!

As soon as she woke up in the morning and washed her face, Hannah was exploring the house and found a cat. It is a golem, of course, to guard the house and protect it from rats and other vermin.

There are two of them, a tortoiseshell cat named and a brown tiger cat named .

Mikeco, who had rubbed her face against Hannah's with a single meow, walked away down the corridor at her own pace, while Tora remained still in Hannah's arms.

"Uh-huh."Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hannah walks down the hallway with tiger in her arms with a good mood on her face. At the end of the corridor was a staircase, and as she was pondering whether to go up or down, a voice called out to her from behind.

It was Elsa.

It was Erza. She had been sleeping in her room for a short time after the discussion on Horai Island. Perhaps that was why she looked a little sleepy.

"Good morning, Erza!

Hannah greeted cheerfully in the morning.

"Good morning, Hannah!

Jin also woke up. He, too, looks sleepy.

"Oh, good morning, Onii-chan!

Hannah no longer says good morning to Jin, but good morning to him. Martha has taught her well.

"Ah, Jin-sama, Erza-sama, Hanna-sama, breakfast is ready..."

Behle came in, found the three of them, and told them that the meal was ready.

"Yes!"

Hannah replied cheerfully, putting the tiger she was holding down on the floor. Jin and Elsa nodded in agreement.

"Wow, this is delicious!

This morning's menu consisted of white rice, miso soup with fried bean curd and tofu, pickled Chinese cabbage, dried horse mackerel, and dried plums.

Thanks to her education in the village of Kayna, Hannah has mastered the use of chopsticks and a fork.

In addition, she has a good sense of taste for eating dried plums. As a member of the Kaina family, I am very happy to see her.

The same goes for Elsa. Barrow and Behrle have also adapted quickly to Japanese food, and since they are not allergic to buckwheat noodles, Jin is able to order their meals without hesitation.

Perid 102, a five-colored golem maid, manages all the household chores, so there is no shortage of ingredients.

Basically, they procure food locally, and what they don't have is ordered from Horai Island.

"...... more rice" (Japanese only)

Erza is having a second helping of rice. By the way, the bowl is made of alumina. The bowls are made of wood and finished with lacquer, which Saki got.

This corner of the room has a strangely Japanese taste.

"Now all we need is soy sauce and ...... dried bonito flakes.

The soy sauce is in the process of being prepared, so it's just a matter of time, but the dried bonito flakes have not been found yet, and they have not been produced on Horaijima either. So the soup stock for the miso soup is made from dried bonito flakes.

"What is this tofu called?　It is soft and delicious.

Tofu could be made from bittern made from seawater and soybeans, and fried tofu as well. Now that the rice harvest is over and rice straw is available, they are trying their hand at natto (fermented soybeans) on Horai Island.

Jin-bro, dried fish is delicious.

Erza loved dried horse mackerels. She now deftly uses chopsticks to pick out the meat while avoiding the bones.

Barrow and Behrle, on the other hand, were still novices in the use of chopsticks.

"What are your plans for today?"

Jin asked Butler D over a cup of green tea after lunch.

"Yes, we are all settled in our house, and Erza-sama is going to make a round of greetings to the neighbors."

"Jin, I'll take care of that."

He is taking Edgar to pay his respects to his neighbors. The gift is a platter of Persica and Citran. They are rare fruits in the Shoro Kingdom.

Yes, please.

I asked the master to prepare the tatami mats I promised His Majesty the other day.

"Oh, ...... you said that."

When the Empress came to see how things were going, Jin told her that he had seen the Japanese-style room and liked it so much that he would offer her some tatami mats.

"In that case, a goza might be nice too. ......"

In Horai Island, igusa is also cultivated in the marshland, and various products have been made. Jin was thinking of offering not only tatami mats but also goza (straw mats).

"What about Hannah?

"Well, I want to look around the city.

"Are you okay?"

Jin-sama, I'll go with her.

Behré offered.

"I'll be fine, girl!　I won't get lost."

Hannah's own covert task force (SP), Iris and Azalea, are also with her, so Jin thinks she'll be okay.

On the one hand, he is worried, but on the other hand, he also thinks that he should not overprotect her, and even if she is strong, she is only 9 years old, so Jin's mind is a mess.

(He doesn't think anything of it when he is in Kaina village. ......)

(He never thinks about it when he is in Kaina Village, but he is at peace in Kaina Village.

In the end, Hannah went out while Jin continued to worry.

This finally made Jin feel better.

"......Erza and Hannah are both getting stronger, aren't they...... or am I the one who isn't......?"

Reiko consoles Jin as he blurts out while moving to Horai Island.

"Your father must love Hanna-chan that much."

(......I guess so. ......When the day comes that Hannah goes off to be a bride,......I think I understand a little bit why fathers cry at their daughters' weddings in TV dramas and the like. I think I understand why fathers cry at their daughters' weddings in TV dramas (......).

While I was thinking about such nonsensical things, Jin and his friends arrived at Hourai Island.

The island was deserted, with no trace of the debate that had been going on until dawn.

Jin quickly made 10 tatami mats.

"By the way, tatami is one tatami or two tatami when laid out, but when counting the tatami itself, is one tatami or two tatami ......?"

I sent 10 tatami mats to Reuthert's mansion using a transporter, thinking about such unimportant things.

"Well, now that I've come all the way to Horai Island, I feel like I should have done something. ......"

Last night, Jin was feeling a little, or rather quite sleepy, after having discussed about from midnight to dawn. His head was not functioning well because of this.

"Father, why don't you take a little rest?

Reiko was also concerned and called out to him.

"Well, I think I'll ...... take a nap in the pavilion. ......

At that time, the old man spoke to her.
