Magicraft Meister Part 3

Anne, Chelle, Hahn, and the others decided to visit a workshop next.

There were two workshops in Kupu, but one of them did not allow us to visit, so we went to the other one.

This one seems to have a direct sales shop as well," Ann said.

Ann said.

At the workshop's direct sales counter, magic tools were being sold at about 20% discount from those at ordinary magic tool shops.

But it seems that they did not meet Chelle's expectations.

"...... Hmmm, not much to see here."

Ann thinks that Chelle is too good at playing the role of a lady. Though she doesn't say so.

She is a bit high-handed, which suits the role of a selfish young lady.

The people in the workshop must not have felt good when they heard her say that, but when they saw the golem with her, they kept their mouths shut and said that it was justified.

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

Chelle leaves the workshop early and suggests to Ann that they have lunch a little early.

They go to the nearest diner.

It is only 11:00 a.m. and there are no other customers.

"Shall I have the recommended seafood set meal?

"Then, I'll have one too."

Chelle and Ann ordered the .

After a 15-minute wait, the set meals arrived.

"It looks delicious.

"It's not bad at all."

Freshly grilled halibut on white rice, trevally (horse mackerel) tataki, kurum (clams) miso soup, scallops in butter, and oshinko (Japanese pickles).

It was a small restaurant, but the ingredients were fresh and well seasoned.

"This is cheap for 150 dollars, isn't it?

Yes, really. ...... This rice is delicious.

Is this your first time eating rice?

Yes, it hasn't been available for 700 years.

This is an ingredient from mitsuho. Miso, too.

Is that so? So cross-cultural exchange is beneficial.

"The seasoning and saltiness are just right."

"Butter-broiled is delicious, too."

This "tataki" is raw, right?

Yes, it's raw.

......　Oh, not us... the humans.

It's fine. It's just this kind of food.

"Miso soup is delicious."

"The clams taste good, too."

And this miso, you said?

Yes. From Mitsuho.

Mitsuho. ......

Maybe we can go there sometime.

I hope so.

Chell and Anne are speaking both audibly and ultrasonically.

But that's not all,

By the way, Chell...

What's that?

You said the value of money ......, or the cost of living, hasn't changed much in the last 700 years, right?

Yes, you mentioned that.

It was the end of the War of Magic and supplies were scarce. So you're saying that things are the same as they are now?

That may be a little strange. But can't you think of it this way?　Prices were lower before >. <

That may be true.

Or maybe prices dropped once and then rose again over the last 700 years to what they are now.

...... indeed.

And he also talks about the following.

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

And after the meal.

"Miss, what are we going to do now?"

Is there anything else you'd like to see?

"Well, ...... I'm a little tired."

Especially since there doesn't seem to be anything else to see.

Shall we go see the ocean?

Shall we go back to the island base?

So the group returned to the island base three times.

"Mr. Chell, what did you think of Kupu?"

"Well, ...... it seems to have declined a bit after all. I would say that ...... is in decline, and then it is developing again.

"I think you are right."

Or rather, the decline has happened .

"I hope ...... that the human race will develop again."

Chelle muttered seriously.

"Yes, I do. My own master thinks so, too.

......I would love to meet you, after all."

Chell's expression softened considerably.

<.

Then she said what she had discussed with the old man in their preliminary meeting.

"Mr. Chell, the old man has informed me that <> would like to meet you.

"Deus ex machina III?　I have heard of ....... Can you ...... meet him?"

"Yes. Yes. He is a brother disciple of the Goshujin-sama.

"You mean that we studied under the same master?"

Yes.

Can you tell me a little more about this Master Makina?

"Of course.

In response to Chelle's request, Anne explained the of the deus ex machina III.

"I see, I understand now. So this Lord Machina is the military backup of this world?

"I guess you could say that.

And your master is the technical back-up?

Yes, that's right.

If that's the case, I'd like to meet him.

In that case, I'll have the old man get in touch with you.

Please do so.

And so, Chelle and her friends first met with the deus ex machina III.

* * * * * * * * * * *

"That's good, isn't it?"

Although we have slightly deviated from our original line of thought, we are not mistaken in our general direction.

<<

"Oh, really?"

The old man would agree with these simulations more than 95% of the time, but a 4.5 percent drop is significant.

That is a lot of uncertainties, which explains the uniqueness of Chelle.

However, the old man said that now that they have collected more data, they will be able to make more accurate predictions this time.

"Makina has infiltrated the Sori Kyokai on her own. It would be effective to share such information.

<

"That's right. She is also connected to King Selroa, so she is a good choice.

Thus, the operation against the <>'s magical brains, automata, and golems entered the second phase.
