Magicraft Meister Part 1

April 13th was free again. We will leave Miyako the next day, April 14, so that we will not have any regrets.

"I have to keep my word. ......"

Erza overheard Jin's muttering.

"Brother Jin, what promise?"

"You know, to make sweets with the library golem."

"...... yeah."

The day we arrived in town, Jin agreed to Mii's casual comment and the story of how he was going to read books from the library.

"Are you going to make it now?"

"Yes. I'm good with golems. We can finish it in the morning.

Jin says,

"I'm going to the factory."

He told the others, "I'm going to the factory.

"Okay, me too."

"I'm going to the library in the morning."

"Oh, me too!

So it was decided that Jin and Erza would go to the factory in the morning, and Saki and Hannah would go to the library.

"Saki-sama, may I join you?"

"Uh-huh."

Mii seemed to be more interested in Saki than in Elsa for some reason. Saki was a bit surprised.

"Welcome. What can I get for you?"

At the factory, the factory manager's automaton greeted them just as he had yesterday.

I have something I want to make. Can we use a part of the factory and some materials?

The factory manager nodded.

"Yes, of course. Please let me know what materials you would like to use.

Apparently, the materials are also available for personal use.

"You can use this area."

We were shown to a rather large work space.

From the looks of this place, it seems that more private use would be welcome.

"Thank you. Now then, can you give me about 30 kilograms of bronze as a material? Then, I would like seven magi crystals of good quality for the control core, and three magi crystals of normal quality. And 20 kilograms of magic resin.

Yes, sir.

The factory manager, an automata, ordered the work golem to bring in the materials requested by Jin.

"Well, let's make it."

"...... Jin, what materials do you need for the magical muscles and the magical nerves?"

Erza asks the obvious question.

"That's the thing, but not this time. If we think about maintenance, we can't maintain it according to Horaijima's specifications.

Jin, who had checked the golem in the factory the other day, is the only one who knows what's going on.

"The maintenance golem in this factory will be impossible to maintain if it is made to Horaijima's specifications. If we leave it in the library, it should be maintenance-free for the next 100 years or so.

The so-called < can be almost maintenance-free if Jin makes it. Even if something happens, we can have a maintenance golem at the factory to take care of it.

"...... understands well."

It is rare for Jin to make a < type golem.

To be precise, < is a method used for golems made by negative dolls (negador), so I should say that this is the first time for Jin to make such a golem.

The method used when the guardian golem of the village of Kaina, the original golem of Gon and Gen, was repaired would be more accurately called the <> method of operation, so...

"Thank you for waiting."

At that moment, the materials requested by Jin were delivered.

"Thank you. Please leave them there."

Now that the materials were ready, Jin decided to start the production.

"......I've been thinking about it a lot, for the first time."

It seems that this is the first time Erza has seen a < golem being made.

"Well then, just watch, okay?　...... I'm not too familiar with it myself."

"Hmm."

A form-driven golem is relatively easy to make. It is a beginner's golem, so to speak.

"First, form the body with magic resin.

The magic resin is multiplied by <, and the desired shape is formed. In this case, we have chosen a slender, neutral type for the library.

"Next is the preparation of the control core. Well, I don't care which comes first, the molding of the magic resin or the control core.

As he explained, Jin made the ,<,<>.

"This time, since it's for the library, we'll use magi crystals that are of good quality to the eye."

"Yes."

There are only two magic crystals (magi crystals) left.

One is for auxiliary memory.

He intends to memorize all the books in the library.

In a modern Japanese National Diet Library, one magi-crystal would be impossible, but since the size of this library is smaller than an elementary school library, this should be enough.

What about the other one?"

"I'll make it a manacam, so that I can send information to you.

That way, you can be assured of a backup.

"I will only send the information to you so that your existence will not be traced back to me in case of emergency.

And if something happens to us, you will be able to sense it.

Now all we need is an ear and a vocalization device.

These are ordinary quality magi crystals. Two for the ears and one for the vocalization device.

"Okay, now the contents are complete."

It works as it is, but it is made of resin, looks bad, and is not strong enough.

So, the exterior is made of bronze.

Unlike a human body, the body is made of magic resin, so there is no need to worry about joints, and the only thing to worry about is mobility.

In extreme cases, as long as the joints bend, any design and any structure will do.

"...... So, Erza, let's make one."

"What, me?

Erza is surprised when Jin suddenly dumps her.

"Yes. You know I'm not good at designing, right?　This is where Elsa comes in.

She had wanted to avoid a too rugged appearance since it was going to be a gift.

"Hmm, okay. ......<>"

Elsa, who is also a top-notch magic engineering expert, finished making the exterior in less than half an hour.

"Okay, now let's put it on."

This is easy to work with because the inside is made of magical resin, so it can be adjusted whether it is tight or loose.

It took Jin and I only 10 minutes to finish.

"Brother Jin, what about knowledge?"

Since the control core had been implanted, he wondered how to perform .

"Oh, in the case of this magic resin, magic power passes through it well, so you can easily transcribe it even after completion as long as you remove the exterior."

"Oh, I see."

This library golem has about 1.5 times the power of a human. It cannot be used for combat.

Therefore, there is no countermeasure against the .

"So I've been thinking about what to do with the knowledge, and I thought it would be better to use the same thing as the golem-maid here..."

The GolemMaid?

"Yes. I have more than enough knowledge and it works just fine. I'm not going to make a mere copy."

"Okay."

So Jin contacted the old man through Reiko, and asked him to send him a copy of the Magi Crystal from Perido, the one who does the most housework among the five-colored golem maids.

After about two minutes, the magi crystal is transferred, and Jin transfers the necessary knowledge from it.

"<>Level 5....... that's it."

He takes him to the library, transfers some of the librarian's knowledge, and that's it.

"We still have time. Let's do the other one too.

The time is 10:30 a.m.

"Brother Jin, are you still making something?

"We had rice cakes. I asked the staff at the guest house cafeteria, but they said they had never eaten such a thing.

"So, what are you talking about?"

Jin smiled at Elsa's question.

"You'll have to wait and see."

"...... already."

It is also Jin who sometimes makes a pretense like this. Erza intentionally made a slightly puffy face.
