Magicraft Meister Part 1

The day after the banquet, which ended peacefully, was the 26th.

It was the day Fena, Larue, Juni, and the others were to return to Lalio.

Fena, take care.

"Take care, Ralu." "Take care, Ralu."

"Juni, I'll see you again someday."

After saying a reluctant goodbye to the villagers and the remaining girls of Kaina, <> soars into the sky.

"...... I'm going to miss you."

"Yes, they were all good people.

"But I still miss home."

The three miss the village of Kaina and their hometown.

In the meantime, <> arrived at Lalio village in about 30 minutes.

The reason for taking the high speed route is to give the impression that the two villages are not as far apart as one might think. If they are surprisingly close, we can have hope that we will see each other again soon.

The fact that they return home the other day, bring them back to Kaina village, and then return officially one day later is also an appeal to the casualness of the situation.

The old man had suggested all these impressions.

The plane landed on the outskirts of the same village as before.

This time, the villagers were not surprised and gathered immediately. Among them was the village headman.

"Chief, I sent Fena, Ralu, and Juni for you today.

"Jin-sama, is it? Thank you very much.

"Well then, Fena, Larue, Juni, see you later."

Jin bids farewell in a lighthearted tone. This is another way of creating an atmosphere of "we can see each other anytime we want".

"Thank you, Jin-sama!"

The families that welcomed the three were filled with joy that their daughters, whom they had been forced to sell because they could not pay the tax, had returned safely.

The daughters understood the reason why they were sold and did not complain or grumble. However, if they had felt resentment, they would not have returned home.

"Welcome home, Fena."

Fena is the youngest of six siblings, with four brothers and an older sister. The oldest brother already had a family of his own, and the older sister had married in the same village, but they had come to the family home because Fena had returned.

I'm home, father, mother, brother, sister..."

Tears fell from Fena's eyes at the sight of her family all together for the first time in a long while.

The family looked warmly at their youngest son.

"Here is a souvenir.

Ralu showed them the stove. Fena, Larue, and Juni were each given one of these by Jin.

However, since it would be difficult to obtain magi sand here, the stove is designed as a mana tank. The mana tank can be used for about half a year with a single filling.

Filling the tank will be done in a nearby town, though.

"What?　Can you cook with this kind of thing?

"Yes, it can. Jin-sama made this too!

"I see. Well then, let's start boiling water right away.

"You've grown a little taller, haven't you?"

Junie was being jostled by her four sisters and one brother.

"Oh my God!　Sis, don't treat me like a child!"

At only 13 years old, Juni is treated like a child in the family.

In fact, she was a child because she had not yet reached adulthood, but she had received a simple education in the village of Kaina and had experienced many things, so she looked more mature than other girls of her age.

"Look, I've even been paid for my work," she said.

With that, she presented a leather bag to her father.

"Really?"

Smiling, Juni's father accepted the leather bag.

"...... your salary?"

Fena's mother was first surprised, then accepted the leather bag with trembling hands.

Not only had her daughter, who had sold herself because she could not pay the taxes, returned safely, but she had also brought a rare souvenir and her wages.

And then, to another surprise...

"...... silver coin?"

I thought they were copper coins, but they were all silver coins. The total amount was 10,000 Tall, or 100 silver coins.

If it had been in gold, it would have been only one piece, but Jin thought that it would be too small to break into pieces in a small village (actually, it was his suggestion).

In yen, it is about 100,000 yen.

It may not sound like much, but the three girls commented at their parents' home that they had never heard of an employer who paid a girl with no skills at all, including three meals and education in simple reading, writing, and arithmetic.

"I can read, write, and do math, okay?"

Ralu was thinking about what he was going to do for a living and consulted his parents.

When he told them that he had learned to read, write, and calculate at Jin's school, they were all surprised.

"Well, I think the village headman said he needs help, so why don't you go and see him?

"Yes, I will."

Thus, Ralu was assigned as a cashier under the village headman.

"I learned to read and write, but I want to work with my hands.

Juni was good with her hands, so she learned to sew.

"Well, Grandma Mig said she needs a seamstress, so you should go to her.

"Yes, I will."

Thus, Junie became the best seamstress in the village.

"I'm going to look for medicinal herbs."

"Be careful."

Fena has been learning about medicinal herbs under the tutelage of the healer Sally.

She wanted to use her knowledge to be of some help in this village where there were no healers.

Of course, in less than half a year of training, the kinds of medicinal herbs he had learned were limited, but it was still much better than nothing.

Gastrointestinal medicines, stomachic medicines, wound medicines, fever reducers.

This alone is a great help to the village of Lalio.

After that, Fena studied about medicinal herbs again and was loved by everyone as a village medicine man.

The village of Lalio was a great help to the people of Lalio.

The situation in Rario was reported by <, Regulus 25, a.k.a. <>, who was deployed to the village.

<

The old man is relieved to hear the report.

For the present Jin, it is better to have as few worries as possible.

Jin is now in Kaina village with <>.

Tomorrow, after leaving Kaina village with <>, he will come back to Horai Island first through the warp gate.

A metal sphere stands quietly in the spaceport behind the institute.

The maiden flight of the newly built spaceship, 300 meters in diameter, is scheduled for tomorrow.
