Magicraft Meister Part 3

"This daily lunch is very good!

"It's really delicious.

"The only complaint I have is that the portions are small.

These are the comments of Eira, Cachair and Groma.

"The dining room at <> is cheap and tasty, but this place is also good. I'm worried about the profitability of this place.

This is what Katya, who has an outstanding economic sense, is saying.

"You're not in the business of making money, are you?

"No, Eira, vegetables, grains, meats, and other ...... ingredients are , so they fluctuate. There is a big difference between low and high prices."

"So that's how it is."

Yes, that's right.

Greenhouses and greenhouses were not yet common, and storage was limited to refrigerators, with no freeze-drying or cryogenic freezers, so it was normal for vegetables to be expensive in the winter.

Caciea knows all this, but Eira and Groma, for better or worse, are too stupid to know it.

They just eat the fresh vegetable salad with relish.

"I wish <> would import more fruits and vegetables.

"I don't care about vegetables, but I want to eat fruits.

Because of the maritime base, fresh fruits and vegetables are very precious in Avalon.

Then, someone called out to them.

"Hello Eira, Cachia, Groma. I didn't know you were here.

"Hello, Eira, Katya, Groma."

"Oh, it's Krathos and Kumil. Are you also visiting us today?

They were colleagues of the same ......<>.

"That's right. You guys have been on leave since the day before yesterday, but since then we've been getting requests for leave one after another. So, instead of taking turns taking a leave, we decided to make the whole laboratory a vacation."

"I see. So, until when?

"Until when?　A vacation?　Yesterday, today, and tomorrow. <

"Oh, ...... that's good news."

Yeah. You guys are paying for it, right?

Yeah, well, ......

We don't have to pay for transportation.

I'm a little jealous.

Do you think so too, Katya?　Well, it's only three days, so things are a bit hectic. Well, I'll have to take a seat.

"I'll see you in the lab."

After finishing what they were going to say, both Krathos and Kumil went to take their seats.

"I guess <> is paying attention, too," Jin said.

Jin said, and Katya nodded.

"It seems so. I guess they decided it was worth the visit."

"I'm flattered ......, but you three are a bit on the short end of the stick, aren't you?"

I guess so.

I'm sorry about that. ...... Oh, yeah, have you found a place to stay for the night?

No, I'm just trying to figure out what to do.

Eira's words are supplemented by Cachéa.

"Actually, we couldn't find a place to stay in Leuthart. So we are going to look for a place to stay in a town a little further away.

"We are on vacation until the day after tomorrow.

Jin was relieved to hear this. He did not have to cancel his lodging.

"Oh, that's good. You can stay with us."

"What?"

Mr. Nido, this is the house you showed me before, isn't it?

Yes.

At the end of 3899, Jin took the three of us to Leuthart's house. However, they did not stay there at that time.

"Thank you very much. We will be very grateful.

"Yes, sir."

In fact, Mr. and Mrs. Daiki-Kokona had already made preparations to bring her, so it would have been a little troublesome if they had refused.

（I should have called them in advance, though. (I should have informed them beforehand, though...) Well, it turned out to be all right.

Jin himself was busy with various things, so it could not be helped, he excused himself.

* * * * * * * * * * * * *

After lunch, we started from <'s room.

"Nido, you are going to be , what are your qualifications?

Eila asked a question that deserved to be asked. I will refer to my previous answer to this question, which was given to an invited guest.

"Well, to put it simply, <>? This is not a matter of practice or effort, but purely a matter of constitution ......, so it's not easy to find those who are qualified."

"I see."

"That's why the has entrusted Reiko here with the task of finding a successor."

Jin patted the head of Reiko who was standing next to him.

"I see. < has been found by in the entrance hall. The <<2nd generation> who upgraded the also entrusted <<3rd generation> to <>."

"Well, I guess that's how it works."

"So, the deus ex machina brother apprentice is ......

"He decided that rather than becoming a magecraft master, he would take over the deus ex machina and live for world peace.

Jin assured him, however, that his abilities were well documented.

"I'm sure it is. We have never been there, but I hear that the mobile base is even better than ."

Gloma Trey said sincerely.

"Likewise, Marikka was a disciple of the <, but not his successor. They are on different paths based on their own beliefs. ...... I think that in the future, people will learn not by <, but by <."

"Makina and Marikka. That's a tall order, but it's something to aspire to."

"Yes, Groma.

We'll do our best.

I'm sure we'll do our best. I know it's not my place to say this, but good luck.

The three of them seemed to be undaunted and determined to work hard. Jin encouraged them to keep up the good work.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

A little before 3:00 p.m.

After the tour, Jin and the others were having a cup of tea at the observatory's cafeteria.

"We're going to the residence after this, but we still have a little time left, so what do you want?"

"Well, ......, is it a carriage or something to go to the mansion?"

No, it's a hurricane.

"That airship. ...... Well, I'd like to take a little scenic flight. ......Gloma, Cachet, what do you think?

"Yeah, I'd like that."

"Yeah, that sounds good."

"Yes, that's a good idea."

Eira's wish was agreed by Gromma and Cachéa, so Jin decided to fulfill their wishes.

"Oh, but first, let's buy a commemorative medal," Gromma suggested.

Gromma suggested, and Eira and Cachea decided to buy one too.

"......, there's a line!"

But the commemorative medals seemed to be very popular and there were about 15 people in line to buy them.

It takes time not only to buy the medal but also to input the text.

"This is going to take a long time.

"What should I do?

At this point, Jin decided to use a subterfuge.

Just in case, there are two more <>, so he will use them.

They are stored in the storage room of the Adriana Memorial Hall.

So Jin talked to who was nearby, and asked him to bring the two machines.

This way, there would be three issuing machines, and the waiting time would be reduced to one-third, from 15 to 5 people.

Using the founder's authority, Jin and the others left the in about 15 minutes.
