Magicraft Meister Part 3

<>'s battle golem, only one remains.

"<>, are you still going to do it?"

Rand 11 spoke to <>, who was probably listening somewhere.

"If my guess is right, won't that one be the end of your force?"

This was his guess based on the fact that he had brought out one less golem.

I am not wrong in my guess. My is finished with that one golem.

"Of course. But are you still going to do it?

Because that's what I've been given the supreme command to do.

Land 11 bites back a curt answer, as if sniffing at him with a stick of wood, but he persists.

"Wait. Are you that inflexible?"

"What do you mean?

"Logically, if this one is destroyed, won't the <> be impossible to carry out?"

No, we can make another golem. It will just take a little longer, but it will not be impossible to carry out.

"Will the golem perform satisfactorily?"

"Is the golem satisfactory enough?

"In the first place, didn't you abduct eight golems from the <> by transfer, with the intention of modifying or diverting them?"

<

"If this base is in the air, it must be chronically short of resources. <, we won't be able to procure any more resources, will we?"

(............)

<> Apparently you are right.

Here, <>'s tone switched again.

"The first <>?"

"Yes.

"Hmmm... ...... you mean to say that in battle you switch to the <> that you just saw?"

Rand 11 also changes his tone.

Yes, sir. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

"That's right."

Here Rand 11 decides to think more carefully about the need to carry on a good conversation.

"...... Back to the subject, isn't there such a thing as <> or <> standards?"

"Yes, there is.

"Is that standard something that can no longer be changed?"

What?

"I heard that <> can evolve itself. Then, even if the <> remains the same, the standards can be changed ...... No, shouldn't they be changed according to the situation and the times?"

《............》

This question seemed to have struck a chord with <<>, and his reply was somewhat delayed.

《..................,Certainly,Yes.

Hearing this answer, Rand 11 felt that he had a good chance of persuasion.

"How about we put it on hold for now?

"Hold in reserve?

"Yes. I'd call it a temporary truce.

Is ...... all right?　I don't see the benefit to you?

There are advantages. My master does not like to destroy valuable magical brains. If it can be done without destroying it, there is nothing better.

But if they remained enemies, the only outcome would be the destruction of one of them (of course, Rand 11 did not believe that Jin would be defeated), and it would be a great advantage if they could change that.

I see. I see. I can understand your thinking. I see. Let's call a truce.

"Good."

Land 11 is relieved that the battle has been averted for the time being.

He also thinks that he would like to take this opportunity to gather some more information on <>.

"<> has a different tone of voice when he is in battle and when he is not in battle.

............

"No, it's just a guess based on facts I've observed."

《......ランド11,You're really good at what you do.

"Thank you. I will take that as a compliment to the master who made it.

Rand 11 thought again that in his current state could somehow be logically persuaded.

So, he started to think hard to find a way to break through.

"...... I have a big question."

"What is it?

"Isn't it unethical to kidnap a golem from another base by transferring it?"

...... I see.

In short, it is . Land11 was interested in how would explain this.

First of all, I have set up a transfer magic circle in the room where I < was located. I mean, it's kind of my <. ...... is this ok?

"...... indeed."

So, if you came into that room, you were entering ...... without permission. Isn't this unethical?

"......It certainly would be."

Land 11, having been cut off, tried again to argue.

"But the location can be seen as part of the so-called . If the magic brain <> gave permission, it is not an unauthorized intrusion, is it?"

《......that's......,certainly.

Now it was <>'s turn to choke.

"To begin with, <> and <> are in the same position ...... up and down the floor, but what is the significance of being in ......?"

<

I see.

"I see." "Now let me ask you a question. How did the creator of ...... make you so powerful?

This was another question that would normally be difficult to answer.

However, Land11 understands Jin's thought, so he answers immediately.

"It is because he cares about me and other creatures.

"Care?

"Yes. So that I can fulfill my various missions safely. That I will return home without incident. That's what I'm trying to ...... reflect in the people I work with now."

<

These words seemed to have struck a chord somewhere in <>.

<

"That may be so. But I want you to think about our identity.

Identity?

Yes. This Land 12 and this Land 12 are the same model. But they are not exactly the same, are they?　We were made in different orders, and we have different experiences.

That is true. But you don't want it to break because of that?　The knowledge that you have accumulated through your experience ...... can be easily restored if you back it up each time.

"That's not what I'm saying. ......"

Land 11 was troubled by the difficulty of making Jin's thoughts understood.

Since going any further would become a philosophical discussion, Rand 11 decided to try a different approach. .......
