Magicraft Meister Part 4

It is a relief to know that the Chells will not suddenly turn hostile to the .

Marikka D used the warp gate to leave on the pretext that she had some business to attend to.

In fact, the reason is that it would be bad if she is revealed to be a if she is in contact with us for too long.

This is because, unlike Machina III, Marikka D has not developed a <> on the surface of her body, since she has to have her <> detected by Chelle and her friends.

As a side note, if it had been discovered that she had made it up, she would have had the excuse that she thought it would be dangerous to confront them directly. I didn't have to use it, though.

And now, the meeting between Chell, Hearn, Anne, and Makina III in <> was proceeding peacefully.

"To tell the truth, I am relieved that we are not in hostilities with Chell and Hearn.

"We are relieved as well," he said.

"If both sides are happy to have avoided conflict, then I am sure we can work together in the future.

Makina III said, to which Chelle replied: "It depends on who you are dealing with.

"It depends on who we are dealing with, but I think it is possible.

"Of course, it would be against the Sori Society.

"Then there should be no problem. In fact, we'd like to help you.

Then there's no problem.

Yes.

Thus, a cooperative framework for the investigation was established between Makina III and Chelle Khan and others.

With this, the investigation could be conducted by Chelle and her team, and the actual arrest could be made by Machina III's side ......, that is, the <>.

"Now, let me take you to <>, the headquarters of <>. My brother disciple should be there.

Who is this ......?

"Yes. <

"That would be fun."

And set out for <> in the darkness of night.

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

At 8:00 a.m. local time on February 21, landed at the airport in .

A has already landed next to it.

"That is the <>, the aircraft of the <>."

<, but still larger than any airship parked at the airport.

"It's smaller than this ship, but it still feels like something special," Chell said.

Chelle said.

Yes, that's right. That ship probably has better overall performance than this Aristotle."

"Is that so?"

"Yes. That's why Jin took over as Magecraft Meister.

"I see. I'd like to have met the first master of ......."

"That's a bit of a stretch. ......"

<.

They are met by Tomax Bartman, the chief administrator of , Jin, and Reiko.

Jin had arrived 10 minutes before Machina III and the others and was waiting for them with Tomax.

"Hey, Makina.

"Hello, Jin."

"Makina-dono, welcome."

"Hello, Mr. Tomax. I'm sorry for coming on such short notice.

"Well, I'm used to you and your friends by now."

After exchanging greetings like this, Chell and Hahn are introduced.

My name is Chelle. Pleased to meet you.

"Call me Hahn. It's nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you too.

Jin D also introduces himself.

Jin D has not deployed a .

If he is not detected as having the same magic pattern as Anne, it is too much trouble to prove that he is the same person.

Incidentally, if it is revealed to be a fake, the reason is also provided for <>.

"This is Jin Nido, the third generation of Magecraft Meisters. This is my squire Reiko."

You are the Magecraft Meister? I've been looking forward to meeting you.

It's an honor.

"...... and a knight, is it? It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Leco.

Pleased to meet you.

Chel gave a discreet greeting to Hitoshi D. and Reiko. Hahn is silent.

The group then went to the small conference room of the .

There they discuss their future plans.

The members of the group are the people we have just met, plus the deputy chief of staff, Illumina Ratkin.

* * * *

"First, let me give you my report.

In the small conference room, Deus ex Machina III opened the meeting.

"The <> will report on ......."

He reports the results of his investigations so far.

He said

The Sori Kyokai addicts its followers to drugs.

The Sori Society uses magic tools that have the effect of <> to brainwash its followers.

It is said that there are three in the Sori Kyokai who are also addicted to drugs.

Anne adds this.

In the Sori Kyokai, brainwashing takes place at the < held in the <>.

The contents of the service include the basic principles of the association, such as <><> as well as <> and <><>, .

And Chelle also said.

"The narcotics < and the magic tools of suggestion <> were owned by our affiliated base," she said.

And.

Jin D. adds the following explanation.

"In the southern part of the Kingdom of Celuloa, near a town called Lutogra, there was a basement of a fortress where the facilities were located during the time of the Great Magic War. And there are two levels of the facility, ....... The <<1st basement> is controlled by a magical brain named <> who put Groma and Eira in danger. When went out of control for some reason, we had no choice but to stop him, and the <> facility was awakened.

The automata belonging to the facility are Chel and the golem is Hahn," concludes Jin D. "From there, the rest is up to Chel, who can be found at his website at .

From that point on, he ...... Chelle gives an explanation.

Jin-sama's explanation is true. There is a similar facility underground on an island in the southern sea of Kupu. ...... It was built as a shelter in case of emergency.

There were magical tools of suggestion and narcotics to calm the evacuees, he explained.

Here Makina III takes over.

"So, the magical tools of suggestion used by the <> are stolen, and so are the drugs.

Jin D. also offered his assurances that this was true.

"We have done our own investigation, and I can testify that what you just said is true."

I understand. If that is the case, then the World Guard will be happy to act.

Tomax Bartmann.

"Then let's continue our discussion on the search for the search party.

That was the course of events.
