Magicraft Meister Part 3

Jin and his friends entered a Japanese-style cafe.

There was a choice of tatami rooms and tables. Jin and the others chose the tatami room.

The tatami room has a sunken kotatsu, which is a sunken kotatsu in this season. It was comfortable for our feet.

"I'll have brown rice tea. And soy sauce crackers.

"Me, too."

Jin and Elsa ordered brown rice tea and rice crackers.

They were delivered immediately and they took a bite of the rice cracker.

It was a crispy hard-baked rice cracker. It is covered with a lot of soy sauce and has a strong flavor. It goes well with genmai-cha (brown rice tea).

"Yes, it's good.

"Delicious!"

We eat the rice crackers and drink tea.

Jin and Erza finish their tea and say to each other, "We've unexpectedly found a good place to eat,

"Hey, what are we doing here?"

"Uh... ......"

"Father, we were going to ask you where the healing center is."

Reiko pointed out.

"Oh, yes, yes, yes."

So, when we paid the bill,

"Is there a healing center near here?

Jin asked, "Is there a healing center near here?

"Healing center?　Well, go straight west on the street in front of here and turn left at the second intersection.

"Oh, thanks."

I managed to remember and was able to get the correct destination, which was a good thing.

After we had gone quite a distance,

"Oh, I forgot to check the name of the restaurant.

Jin said, "Oh, I forgot to check the name of the shop I just went to. He said that the tea and rice crackers were delicious and he would like to stop by again if he has a chance.

"Father, this is Kikkyo-ya."

"Oh, thank you, Reiko."

It seemed that Reiko had remembered him.

* * * * * *

As we were exchanging these words, we passed one intersection and turned left at the second one.

"Oh, there it is."

Erza pointed to a sign that read <>.

"Iris is a flower like an iris, isn't it?

Reiko answered my question.

"I think so, father.

So this is a healing center named after a flower.

They just opened it now.

"Good morning.

Jin said,

"Good morning. Is this a ...... treatment?

He asked back.

He added, "But it doesn't look like there's anything wrong with you.

Jin felt that the doctor seemed to be very skillful.

"Yes, I am not here to ask for treatment. I just wanted to ask you a few questions. ...... I am , Jin Nido. This is my wife Elsa, who goes by the same name as the second generation.

"Well!　< and !"

"Eh? >?　Not Honorary Healer?"

<

Jin was puzzled by the unfamiliar word,

（Erza whispered, "I received this title about 360 years ago.)

Erza told him in a whisper.

（I don't like to be called that because it's embarrassing.)

She also said.

"...... what can I do for you?"

"Oh, no, no, I mean this one. ...... so may I have a word with you?"

Yes, we don't have any patients yet.

Yes, we don't have any patients yet.

Thus, Jin and the others were invited into the Iris Healing Center.

<

The reception room in the back was also beautiful, and was decorated with a picture of Iris flowers.

"We don't have anything for you," he said, offering me a cup of tea.

The one who offered us tea was a nursing golem. It seems to be of the lineage of the mass-produced nursing golem <.

"I am the director of this healing center, ," he said.

The woman who introduced herself as Selin Wannabe appeared to be in her early twenties. She is rather small, with dark brown hair and brown eyes. She is slim looking.

She took a sip of tea and asked, "So, what can I tell you?

After taking a sip of tea, Serin began.

"Well, first of all, I'd like to confirm something.

Jin started.

"Have you ever met before, Serin?"

These words came as a shock to Selin.

"Well, please don't call him Akitsu-sama."

"Oh, I'm sorry."

Jin apologized honestly. At the same time, he took Reiko's arm beside him and told her not to do anything.

Otherwise, Reiko was likely to react in some way.

"...... Sorry. I don't know if you people from other countries understand this, but Akitsu-sama is the mother of the nation for us Mitsuho people."

"......"

Jin knew the feeling, so he responded silently.

Then he resumed.

"Well, it has been discovered in recent years that there has been an increase in the number of patients in Shoro and Ogunkuni. I was wondering if it is safe to mine here."

"Dust lung? I know the symptoms. I also know the cause. But I don't think there are any patients around here.

I am relieved to hear that.

Jin recalled his visit 400 years ago.

The industrial products in Mitsuho are made in the < north of the town of Miyako, the capital of Mitsuho, and the materials are mined by golems.

(If there are no humans mining directly, there are no patients, or ......)

Jin decided that this was a stable system and that he should not interfere with it.

"One more thing. This is the main one.

Jin then handed the baton to Elsa.

"Well, don't many people have sore throats, especially in winter?

"Throat...... Yes, it increases. Because the air is drier."

Selin Wannabe answered that respiratory illnesses increase during the winter months due to dryness.

"You don't recommend wearing masks?"

"We do, but people don't like to wear masks.

"I see."

Jin, who was listening at the side, came up with an idea. He decided to propose it immediately.

"I have an idea.
