Magicraft Meister Part 3

Jin... who turned teatime into a lively question period.

Okay, then.

"Yes, please."

The first to raise his hand was Tomax Bartmann, the Chief Administrator of .

"There is a gap of about 1000 years between the first Adriana and the second Adriana or Machina, how did you learn? How did you learn it?"

The guests nodded their heads at this question. It seemed that this was a topic of interest to them.

"As you can see from ...... this Reiko, the technology of the <> did not last a thousand years. In other words, with the educational magic tools left behind by the <>, the <>, not me ......, became a <>, and the <> also learned the same way and became independent. And he became independent."

"I see.

"At the same time, we also check to see if you are qualified to become a Magecraft Meister, so not just anyone can become one."

I understand.

Next, may I?

Yes, please.

The next question came from Ernest XVII, the third prince of Egeria.

"I would like to know if you can tell me about the qualifications to become a Magecraft Meister, if you don't mind me asking.

"Well, ...... absolutely necessary is the <>."

"Is it the magic pattern ......?"

"Yes. No two magic patterns are the same, but still, there are those who are almost the same on rare occasions. That is what qualifies as a ."

"Why are you so ...... sure you can answer this?"

Jin nodded.

"Yes. I will answer ...... that it is necessary to use some of the engineering magic to the highest level. Anything more than that will remain confidential for now.

"You are referring to the engineering magic that was explained earlier in the room of the second generation, the magic that only those who can use it can become apprentices?"

"That's what I mean."

Normally, learning is not something that should be kept secret as if it were passed down from one generation to the next, but as for the conditions of succession of <>, it is not something that can be known, but on the contrary, it is something that cannot be known or controlled, so it is a matter of privacy between master and disciple, so it is kept secret. Jin explained that it was a matter of privacy between master and disciple, and that he would keep it confidential.

I understand. Thank you, Mr. Jin.

And with that, everyone seemed to agree.

Jin then asked one question.

"Mr. Mutu, may I ask you a question?

"Yes, what is it?"

"In Mitsuho, what is the tradition about the figure of the Sage (Magus)?"

I asked this question because I did not remember seeing any statues or portraits of him when I visited Mitsuho before.

"Oh, I see what you mean. It seems that > did not have a portrait made of him. I heard that he asked them to stop <."

"I see."

Jin understood this sentiment well. Jin himself did not want a statue to be erected.

But it was already too late, and statues of the "Magecraft Meister," the second generation of magical engineers, were being erected all over the place.

"But I was glad to see you here, <>, <> and <>. Thank you very much.

"No."

After such conversation, the drinks run out, and the meeting is over. We decided to continue with the questions later.

Now that the exhibition-related presentations are over, the only thing left to do is to introduce this facility.

* * * * * * * * * * *

First, the third floor.

The number of rooms is the same as that of the second floor. In other words, the floor is divided into nine sections.

However, most of the rooms were unused.

These are spare rooms that are left empty in case of an increase in the number of exhibits. And here is ......"

The south room. Along with the north room, this is the room that currently has a specific use.

It will be a conference room.

Oh, it's very bright.

That's because it faces south.

And the room to the north, across the center hall, is .......

"We call it the multipurpose room. It can be used for any kind of event.

For example, a magical engineering class for beginners," Jin said, and the guests nodded their heads in admiration.

"I see... I see..."

"So this is also such a facility."

Jin continued.

"Vacant rooms are a manifestation of possibilities. How they will be used in the future depends on the people who use this facility. ......

"I see... yes, that's true.

And I hope that young people, those who want to learn engineering magic, will make active use of it.

"Hmm."

"In that sense, I'd be grateful if it could become the ......<> that the < was unable to achieve."

"That's just like Jin-dono, isn't it?"

"But <>. That's ...... good."

We would be happy to recommend it to you.

Thank you very much.

Jin is pleased with the words of the invited guests.

Oh, the 4th floor!

"Oh, the fourth floor has a rooftop and ...... penthouse.

Someone said this and then tilted his head.

Is this a penthouse?　I said, .......

"This is the telescope dome," Jin explains.

Jin explains.

Astronomical telescopes have a large magnification, so the slightest breeze can cause them to blur.

The dome covers the telescope to prevent it from being affected by the wind.

The purpose of the dome is also to increase visibility by blocking out ambient light.

It is also intended to protect observers from cold winds (the most suitable season for astronomical observation is from autumn to winter, so nights are cold).

"Observing stars is also a science. If you want to combine science and magic, you need facilities.

"Hmmm...... star gazing?"

Yes. For example, even at night, you can tell the direction and time of day by looking at the positions of the stars, right?

"Ah, I see. ......

I see... I see... I see... I see... I see... I see... I see...

"That's what I mean. It is also purely a lookout point. Isn't the view of Lake Tosmo beautiful from here?

Yes, indeed.

"Lake Tosmo at dusk, with the snow-capped mountains of the north in red. ......"

The guests were convinced that they could enjoy the view from the observatory as well.

The basement is mainly a warehouse, so I'll skip the basement.

"This is a short introduction to the . If you have any comments, please let us know.

"One thing, if you don't mind."

Belialus of the Nordic Federation raised his hand.

"Yes, please."

"Today, since you have told me about the past, I have one wish..."

Hope?

Yes. <
