Magicraft Meister Part 1

The next day, the 7th, was a busy morning.

The disturbances in the Kingdom of Franz had reached here in the Kingdom of Cerroa.

As soon as breakfast was over, the representatives of the remaining countries held a meeting.

"There has been a revolution in Franz".

This would be the theme of the meeting.

"It is said that the situation is close to a bloodless revolution.

"Légion de Barkly has been deposed by the revolutionary forces and replaced on the throne by the Duke of Lotharus de Lafayette."

So far, so good. The Duke of Lafayette's reputation is so good that even other countries have heard about him, and everyone is optimistic that there will be no major problems with diplomatic relations in the future.

The problem is Oranje. The problem of Oranje is so big that the change of king does not seem to be a big deal to some people.

"I heard that Oranje is holed up in a fortress on the frontier.

"Apparently, it seems to be the ruins of a magical battle, and cannot be easily taken down.

Information is exchanged among the representatives.

Then new information arrived. It was brought by Kirk Atkinson. He is the first advisor to King Cesar.

"This letter was delivered early this morning by the deus ex machina.

With these words, he left.

All of them were anxious to know what was in the letter, so Prince Arthur read it out in great haste on behalf of all of them.

"...... Fort Crow, where Oranje holed up, is a ruin from the time of the Magi Wars and is a <>. It is not just a fortress. Please be careful."

"<>?　What the hell is that ......?"

The Marquis of Theodelic almost raised his voice in question, but Prince Arthur stopped him.

"There is more to the story. ......<> is itself supposed to be a kind of giant golem......"

As I read out the written explanation, the faces of those listening changed color.

"Such a relic is ......!"

"How can we attack ......!"

"How can we attack ?" "Can we manage it with the current technology?

They seem to have become completely frightened.

To dispel the atmosphere, Prince Arthur raised his voice.

"Everyone, please calm down. No matter how strong a fortress or castle is, it always has its weak points. For example, the attack on the army. There is no way to prevent it.

"Oh ......"

"Yes, indeed."

Hearing this, everyone seemed to have regained some of their composure.

(If it were Horai Island, there would be a warp gate and we could be self-sufficient.

) Jin was thinking such things, but he did not say them out loud. He has that much sense.

In fact, how many people were in Fort Crowe was also an important point in the war against the enemy, but he had no information about that.

"Well, gentlemen, the situation is the situation. I will have to return to my country tomorrow.

The Shoro empress spoke up. She had stayed here for a long time, but now that the situation had turned out this way, she would have to return home.

"Yes, I think I will return home as well."

Prince Arthur, the second prince of the Kingdom of Klein, also said so.

"I guess we have no choice now.

Marquis Florenziano of the Kingdom of Elias also said.

"Well, it's a pity, but it has to be done."

Duke Bruu of Egelea also declared his intention to return home.

So..,

Shawlo Kingdom: The Empress, Marquis Theoderic, Minister of Magic and Technology Degauze, Lieutenant Colonel Fritz, Captain Matheus, and Reinhardt.

Kingdom of Klein: 2nd Prince Arthur, valet Lyonesse, captain of the female knights of Jessica's Kingsguard.

Kingdom of Egelea: Duke Bruu.

Kingdom of Elias: Marquis Florenziano, Marcia.

And Jin, Elsa.

These people decided to return home.

When I told this to the new king, Cesar, first thing in the afternoon, he looked disappointed.

"I see. Well, I guess it can't be helped, given the circumstances. Thank you all for your cooperation so far.

Thank you very much for your cooperation.

"Oh well, I guess this is goodbye for now."

Jin muttered as he cleaned up the guest room, which was slightly cluttered with his personal belongings.

"Well, it can't be helped."

Erza replies as she folds her clothes.

"Your father can come anytime."

Reiko comforted Jin.

"Elsa-sama, I've finished packing."

Edgar came in carrying two large bags.

"Here we are. Let's get some sleep tonight and leave after breakfast tomorrow."

"Yes."

"Actually, I was hoping to take the delegates to the Kunlun Island after this to start the world conference.

The world doesn't always work out the way you want it to.

Indeed.

Just then, there is a knock at the door.

Reiko answers the door. The visitor is Marcia.

"Hello, Gin, Elsa. I'm sorry to bother you.

"Welcome."

Reiko prepared a cup of tea using the tea utensils provided.

It's been a long time since we've had a leisurely talk like this.

Jin's been busy with his career.

"I really wanted to be more relaxed and do whatever I wanted to do."

When Jin said this in a mumbled tone of voice, Marcia laughed.

"Haha, that's impossible. I understand how you feel. Unless he completely shuts himself away, there's no way people will leave him alone.

"Well, yeah."

But I can understand how you feel. I sometimes wish I could build boats the way I want to.

To live you have to earn money," Marcia concluded, "and that means you have to do things you don't want to do and meet people you don't want to meet.

"That's true, isn't it?"

"Yes, but Jin is a bit of an out-of-this-world guy."

"Where did you learn that word ......?"

"Ha-ha-ha, I'm glad you guys seem to be getting along so well."

After some small talk, Marcia got down to business.

"Actually, I'm going back to my country tomorrow morning. I wanted to talk to you guys first."

"Yeah, it was fun."

I'll see you soon."

However, both Jin and Marcia had their own lives, and they understood that it would not be possible to see each other anytime soon.

"Well, it's a little early, but good night, Jin."

"Yes, good night."

At 8:00 p.m., after Marcia left, Jin asked Erza.

"Should we go and say hello to the others?"

"......Yeah, maybe. It's not too late. Shall we go to ...... now?"

Erza agreed, so Jin and the others made the rounds to give a brief greeting to the representatives of each country.
