Magicraft Meister Part 1

First of all, let's check how to use obtained from an ancient dragon.

I will try this with a piece of leather.

"Hmmm, if you simply put mana into it, it will stretch and harden, right?

This is the same experiment as the one we tried in Capricorn 1. This method cannot be applied to skin.

"To use this on skin, it's either the direction or the type of magic ......"

"Ancient dragons move normally, so there is no reason why it can't be done, right?"

Saki is right. Jin and the others try various things.

As a result, it was confirmed that the material becomes hard when it is filled with mana, and becomes flexible and strong when it is given magic waves, or mental waves.

"Yes, in other words, it has a very high affinity with magic and magic."

Because of its extremely high affinity, it can only respond to one type of magic at a time. In other words, it does not accept other people's magic.

Conclusion. .

That is why a living ancient dragon is invincible, and its shed skin becomes weak.

However, the shed skin can be strengthened by flowing magic power to the shed skin again. And it does not react to anything but the magic power that has been cast on it.

If he used this on Reiko's skin, he would be invincible.

But Jin did not intend to stop there.

Jin, what are you doing?

"I'm going to try that thing you were talking about in Capricorn 1.

By "that," he meant what determines the strength of the body.

They are going to renew the skeleton and muscles as well.

"Reiko's skeleton is hyperadamantite. It is hollow to reduce weight and has a foam structure inside.

Bird bones, he says, are also hollow in the large ones, and are similar to a truss structure.

"What would happen if we filled the foam section with this end material?"

This question was answered by Elsa.

"...... reinforcement by magic power."

"Yes. It should be able to be further strengthened in the same way as the skin."

"That's certainly amazing,......."

Saki seemed to understand.

"And muscle. If we can do this with the scraps of wood, too, ......."

Ancient dragon leather responds well to magic. In other words, it is an excellent muscle material.

It was Jin's intention to reconstitute the conventional magical muscle with this new material.

The Magi Reactor was also readjusted to fit the new skin and muscles.

The details of the control core were also reviewed.

The weight is adjusted so that it remains the same, and in about two hours Reiko is back to her original form. All that remains is to reboot.

"Hey Jin, can I ask you something?

Saki asked Jin after he finished the final check of Reiko.

"Yes?　What is it?"

"Is there a reason why you're making Reiko look like this?　If you want to make her stronger, I thought it would be better to make her look like an adult.

"Oh, that's it."

Jin stopped checking and turned to Saki and Erza.

"Reiko's appearance was decided by the previous generation. I don't know why they made her this way. But Reiko calls me her mother and me her father. I want to respect their wishes.

After saying this, he continued,

"......I know what you're talking about. I don't know how to say it, but that's what this is about. I'm not the same person on the inside anymore. But I don't want to change my looks. You can call me self-righteous. Laugh at me if I'm wrong.

With that, he sat back in his chair, this time with his back to the two men.

"......"

After a few moments of silence, Elsa quietly approached and gently put her arm around the back of Jin's neck.

"......There's nothing funny about that. Jin's kindness, that's all."

"......Yes, you're right. Jin, I'm sorry for asking you such a crazy question.

* * * *

"Okay, Reiko, wake up."

"Yes, Father."

Her eyes opened and Reiko got up and ...... fell down.

"Ah!"

Reiko hit her hand on the floor and made a hole in the hard chert floor.

"I'm sorry ......."

She rushes to get up, but this time she falls back on her back, and then turns over. The floor where the back of her head had hit the floor was cracked again.

"Reiko, calm down!"

Jin calms her down.

"Father, the force is ...... out of control."

I knew it. ....... The material we've used is completely unknown. So, Reiko, get up gently, gently. Right... at 0.1 percent.

Yes, sir.

It's very dangerous to touch Jin and the others in this state. Reiko understood that.

Reiko lowers the output to the limit as instructed by Jin, and gets up slowly.

"Okay, I think I'm OK. ...... Reiko, you may need some time to get used to your body. It is possible that you are now three times as good as you were before."

"Triple ......?"

At this point, Saki could no longer remain silent.

"Jin, Jin!　Three times?　Where did you come up with that number?"

Erza seemed to feel the same way.

"Hmmm... I can understand ...... a few percent. But three times ...... literally orders of magnitude. Why is that?"

"Oh, that's right."

Jin nodded and began to explain. Reiko let him sit in the chair for the time being.

"First, Elsa. Can you feel the magic from Reiko?

"Huh?"

Erza was a bit surprised by Jin's sudden words, but she immediately sharpened her senses to perceive the magic power as she was told. .......

"...... I can't feel it at all."

"Right?　The ancient dragon's leather is almost completely sealed in magic. That means that it is efficient in the use of mana.

The magical power here is the same quality as a mage's mental power. It can be described as the mental waves generated by Reiko's control core.

As they are waves, they have wavelength, height, and waveform. Reiko's waves are of the same quality as those of Jin, the creator of the device, as Jin explains.

He explains this to Erza and the others, and teaches it to Reiko as well.

"You use that magic power to move your muscles and use magic. If that magic power does not leak out, it means that it is being used at 100 percent efficiency."

Erza and Saki understood what Jin was trying to say, even though he was coming up with his own logic, saying that in reality there are openings such as eyes and mouths, and that while perfection may be a word in this world, it is not a fact.

"But is that really all it takes to triple the amount?"

"Yes. The muscles made from the leather of an ancient dragon were that superior. If you replaced all of it, it might have been ten times better.

"That's a scary thing."

The 700672 is an extraordinary introduction to the material.

"Well, the real full power would only be possible for a few dozen minutes, unless you are in a land with dense free magic element (ether) like the demon territory."

"......And even then, a few dozen minutes?"......Who in the world is Jin trying to deal with?"

Saki looked stunned.

"Yeah. I don't want Reiko to be broken, and I want her to always be the best automata she can be. I don't want her to lose no matter who she's up against."

"...... understands well. I envy you a little, Reiko."

Erza, who had been listening quietly, muttered a little sadly and nodded her head.

Reiko, on the other hand, was thrilled to know that Jin thought so much of her.

* * * * * * * * * * * *

Over the next half day, Reiko finally regained control of her body.

This is a bit similar to when Aaru was first activated in the past. In the case of Aaru, he had made her knead clay to get the consistency of the control system.

"Father, it's all right now."

Jin had Reiko do origami.

And now, Reiko has successfully folded a paper crane.

It was made in Horai Island using the Japanese paper method reported by John Dinney.

"Brother Jin, teach me next time," she said.

"Yes, yes, I want you to teach me too!

The origami was well received by Elsa and Saki.

However, Jin did not have a large repertoire of origami.

There were paper cranes made of square paper, a guy, a headpiece, a sailboat, balloons, and a box.

Paper guns and airplanes made of rectangular paper.

"Next time, I'll teach Hannah too. ......"

Jin thought to himself.

Reiko made lunch and dinner that day. She said that this was part of the familiarization of the control system.

"Yes, it's delicious, Reiko.

"You're good at it, Reiko."

"It's really delicious."

Not only Jin, but Saki and Elsa also praise the results. Reiko's movements no longer seemed to be a problem.

"Now I can be of service to my father again as much as I want.

Reiko smiles happily.
