Magicraft Meister Part 3

The , which has been on his agenda for a long time, has been completed, but Jin knows that there are still many unfinished business.

The reason why he decided to create this system in the first place was because of the escape of <>.

At the time, Jin had finally cornered Lardus, a criminal who had been manipulating the <> and was a merry criminal who had been meddling in various countries, but Lardus was so weak due to old age that he was unable to speak.

However, Erza's medical skills prolonged his life, albeit slightly, and he was finally able to talk to him.

Later, Jin was caught off guard, thinking that he would not be able to move much, and he escaped by shifting his body.

This is the reason why I started to search for a way to detect the transference.

"......In the end, Lardus was never found, was he?"

"...... maybe,...... maybe,...... already."

Erza said that Lardus had already ...... kicked it and fled, since his life-prolonging treatment was only possible with his own technology and the backup of Horai Island.

Still, the search would continue, just in case.

Of course, using the <>.

"Well, old man, what is the progress of the canal?

This project was started because it would be easier for ships to come and go by building a canal to separate the continents of Rasheer and Laurent.

The plan itself was supposed to have been approved by the and the four principalities.

"Oh, I see. Is there a problem?"

"Yes, that's true.

In the long run, the height of the sea level should be the same all over the world, but it is not ideal because of the ebb and high tides due to the gravitational pull of the moon (UNY) and the viscosity of the water itself.

In the worst case, there is a possibility that the seawater will flow from one side of the canal to the other with great force.

.

The difference in sea level between the two ends of the canal is not high enough to cause a problem, because the planned canal construction site is located at a latitude close to the equator, and the moon (UNY) is an artificially placed celestial body orbiting on the equator (apparently) without any orbital blurring.

"I see. Then, it seems to me that we should simply dig a canal."

According to Jin's previous estimation, the size of the canal would be 50 meters wide and 1 meter deep, using 200 craftsmen (Smith). The construction period is expected to be 150 days.

"We have already talked about this, so as long as we decide on a proper start of the construction, there will be no problem?

"Okay, I understand."

Can you do that?

<

Thus, the construction of the canal was to begin on December 1 of the same year.

"Yes?"

"Licia?　That's unusual."

Since I'm just getting free and it's almost three o'clock, we decide to go to the cafeteria for tea time.

"Hello, Gin-san, Erza-san, Hannah-chan, Saki-san.

"It's been a while, Licia.

Yes, it has. I've been a bit preoccupied with research.

"......<?"

Hearing Licia's comment about , Erza asked back.

"Yes, that's it."

"Did you get the results?"

"...... but I'm almost at a standstill."

And you came to me for help?

Yes.

In the archives left by the originator, there was something written about artificial cells.

For various reasons, Licia has been in charge of it and has been studying it.

The difference from the that healed Elise's heart before is that <>.

Once this technology is established, it will be possible to create artificial organs and treat body tissue defects.

"In short, this is an application of <>, isn't it?"

Hannah asked.

"Yes, you're right, Hannah.

"Then tissue culture should be no problem. If it's ......, then ......<>?"

"Bingo. That's what I'm talking about, Hannah."

Licia says that it works up to tissue culture.

But after that ...... transplantation into a living body, the < doesn't work.

"It's not rejection, is it?"

"No, it's not. It's simply that the tissue won't fuse with the body for any length of time.

If the tissue doesn't fuse, it can't be said to have been treated.

"Well, ......, why is that?"

"That's where I got stuck, so I heard that Jin-san and others were getting together, so I came to consult with them."

Jin, who had been listening attentively, opened his mouth.

"Hannah, what's the difference between artificial cells for homunculus and human cells?"

"Well, I'd say they're different, and I'd say they're the same ......."

According to Hanna, they have the same , such as a cell membrane and a nucleus.

However, the < of each is different by an order of magnitude.

"They have the right genes, so they can divide and heal wounds.

But the atoms that make up the atoms are < or .

"Then that must be the cause of ......."

"Yes, I think so too. Yes, I think so too, but I don't know where to go from there.

"...... I guess the implanted tissue is too strong."

"...... what?"

Licia responded to Jin's murmur.

"...... Jin-san, what did you say?"

"You know, considering that fusion means to be accepted as a part of the organization, I thought that the transplanted tissue would be < to be accepted. It's a layman's idea."

But that idea was something Licia and Hannah did not seem to have.

"...... Jin, that was a blind spot, I think."

And Erza agreed.

"In short, the < was so different that it was considered <>. ......It really is a blind spot."

Hannah agrees.

"For example, if you're going to transplant a blood vessel, you'd think it would be better if it was at least a little bit stronger, wouldn't you?

"Hmm."

"...... but can you make it weaker ......?"

Licia said anxiously.

"Oh, you mustn't be mistaken about that."

Jin quickly added.

"......Maybe, even if it is a substance made of <> or <>, the default strength should not change. You can go to ......, right, Saki?"

"Yes, that's right.

"If that's the case, then why are substances made of <> or <> stronger?"

At this point Jin turned to Licia.

"...... Ah, because it is easier and more effective to strengthen them with free magic element (ether), isn't it?"

"Correct. In other words, if we cancel all <>, the strength should be the same."

"I'll try it!　Thank you for your advice, Jin-san and everyone!

Saying this, Licia ran out of the cafeteria.
