Magicraft Meister Part 1

It was in the year 3101 that the template for the automata bequeathed by the legendary Magecraft Meister Adriana Barbora Zetsi was discovered.

This year was a memorable one for the world of magical engineering.

Up until then, 90% of automata and golems were made of "magiresin", which is a resin that can be transformed by magic.

In other words, the golem was made of magically deformable <> and clothed in metal armor, while the automata were covered with imitation skin.

Only a handful of automata had internal skeletons, and even these were either mere prototypes or the pretensions of the rich and aristocratic.

The discovery of Adriana's template marked the beginning of a period of great innovation.

"A skeleton that is a simplified version of the human skeleton.

"Muscle structure similar to that of a human being.

These two points made possible more human-like movements and gestures.

The benefits of this are

The golem is able to use all the skills that humans have cultivated, such as swordsmanship and martial arts.

Automata became more human-like.

This led to a rapid increase in the demand for automata in particular.

Factories and workshops, large and small, began operating like bamboo shoots after the rain.

They were weeded out within about three years, and within five years, only those factories and workshops that produced high-quality products remained.

The factory was one of those that remained after being eliminated in this way.

The first new type of automata was completed after trial production.

It was a masterpiece of an automaton that looked exactly like a human being, or rather, like a human being itself.

The factory decided to voluntarily change the hair color to ......<>, a color that is absolutely impossible for a human being.

The name was decided to be composed of short syllables as much as possible.

The first automata was named , the second automata , and the third automata . BEL>> and the third automata is >.

They are made up to <>, 20 in all.

The 18th automata is named <>.

"Your name shall be ."

"Yes, my name is ROL. I look forward to working with you."

Lol was bought by a young scholar.

He expected the new automaton to be his research assistant.

Lol worked well and lived up to his expectations.

Master, it's almost noon. Please take a rest at the end of the day.

"Master, I've finished organizing the new research material."

Master, you're not well if you work too hard. Please go to sleep for now."

The scholar loved Lol and took good care of him.

"Well, thank you, Lol."

But tragedy struck suddenly.

The laboratory, which was usually lively in the morning, remained quiet that day.

A curious neighbor went to check on him.

"Whoa, whoa!　What in the world is this?"

He found the scholar kneeling and drooping before the torn limbs and dismembered Rolle.

The culprit who destroyed Rolle was never caught.

The scholar visited the factory where Rolle was manufactured, but tragedy struck there too. The technical director of the factory had been murdered.

However, the factory manager was safe, so he managed to have Rolle repaired, and the scholar took this opportunity to move to the countryside.

It was a wise decision.

After this, there was a series of incidents in which automata with the same blue hair as Rolle were destroyed. Earlier, a magecraftsman who discovered the template for automata left by Adriana was also murdered, but the connection between the two remains a mystery.

Lor and the scholar lived a quiet life in their new home.

Lorr served him until the scholar died of old age.

After that, Lolu was taken over by the state according to the custom of the time, and after some maintenance, he was placed in a state of waiting.

Then the <> broke out.

Most of the automata that had survived the mysterious destruction were dispatched.

Their main purpose is to comfort the soldiers.

While there were many automata that had been modified to be capable of <, Rolle barely escaped such modification.

He was deployed not to a frontier fort, but to a fort that was considered to be the last line of defense.

Although still under construction, Rolle was deployed not only to provide daily support such as meal preparation, cleaning, and laundry, but also to perform chores such as carrying materials.

This was because the war on magic was becoming more and more intense and all of them were short of manpower.

Because of the wartime situation, they became valuable automata, and were linked with the magic brain of the fortress, so that the magic brain could issue commands in times of emergency.

And then <.

With the fort, Rolle stopped working.

* * * *

"......"

Loll has been reactivated.

One of its basic commands is that the person in front of you when you wake up is your master.

The new master seemed to be a technician. Roru was supposed to be able to use his abilities to support .......

But...

"Get on with it, you fool!"

<

Three hundred years have taken their toll on Lorr's body. And Lor's new master could not repair it.

>.

Lol's movements are rather awkward.

His fingers do not move well, and his gait is dazed.

Even though he has the knowledge to make tea, he cannot know the temperature of the water accurately because the sensor to determine the temperature of the water has deteriorated.

Therefore,

"It's lukewarm!"

.

The new master was so irritated that he often threw the cup of tea at Lol. Rolle, however, did not disobey him and continued to serve him.

He taught his master, who was in agony because he could not repair the fort as he wished, about the automata that assisted the fort's commander.

.

With this, the maintenance of the fortress progressed.

The automata (automata) are also maintained by the golem for repair. However, the lack of materials for repairs was insurmountable, and since priority was given to repairing the facilities in the fort, Lol's repairs were put on the back burner.

Even so, Lol served his master without a single complaint.

The automata also suggest a magical brain.

This brought them to a turning point.　

A few days after their magical brains were awakened. A certain incident triggered an order from the brain to stun the people in the fort.

The <> authorized him to attack them in a non-injurious way in order to protect them from a greater threat.

But Lor's master had already fallen into a deep sleep, so he did not bother to knock her out, but only locked her up with a <> spell.

Then she was stopped again.

Just before she was stopped, a feeling of loneliness crossed Lol's control core.

(Now she may never wake up again. I have no complaints about that,...... but I wish I could have met the master once more,...... to whom I could serve him with all my heart and soul. I wish I could have met him again.)

* * * *

"Nice to meet you, Master."

Lol was surprised inside. The words that came out of his mouth were so smooth. Yes, as if he had just been made.

"How are you doing?"

asked the young man whom Lol recognized as her master. An automaton of unbelievable magic, unbelievable precision, and unbelievable power was standing by his side.

When he got up, he could feel that his physical condition was back to normal, or even better.

So Lor showed him a beautiful bow with smooth movements.

"Yes, you are in excellent shape. Thank you very much."

To my further surprise, I noticed another automaton behind the master who introduced himself as Jin.

Their distinctive hair color was definitely made at the same time as his own.

And the later they were made, the more knowledge they had about their who was made before them.

"...... you might be <?"

The characteristics of < in Lol's knowledge matched those of <. And he was right.

Yes, I am .

Thus, after more than 300 years, the two automata sisters met again.

And from this day on, happy days began for Lor.
