3021 - - 80-07 Friendly Magic Brain

Jin D passes through an open bulkhead to get to the <.

He goes straight to the room with the transfer magic circle .......

"You use the transfer magic circle when the bulkhead is open?"

"Yes. The bulkhead is open but there is no passage for humans to use.

"What kind of design concept is this ......?"

Jin D tilted his head.

"Hey, since the is long over and we are not in an emergency situation, why don't we set up a proper route from the first underground base to the second underground base?"

"Yes, that is an option, but it is not up to me. <.

"I see.

We first move to the < using the transfer magic circle. Reiko accompanied him.

"First, I'll take you to the magic brain."

"Yes."

Chelle guides Jin D and Reiko.

< is quite cozy.

Since it is set up deep underground, the walls, ceiling, and floor are basically all natural stone.

It seemed to be covered with some kind of reinforcing magic.

Since it does not serve as a shelter, it has only a few rooms.

Chel explained to me that the base has three levels, with the bottom level being a warehouse for supplies.

"The magic brain is located in the center of the middle level."

Since the transfer magic circle was located in the upper level, we went down the stairs to the middle level.

Are the inside of the building secured?

"Yes, just a maintenance golem patrolling the area, making periodic checks."

"I see. ...... who ventilates the inside?

We maintain the environment as it was when the makers were here.

"I see. You guys respect the makers, don't you?

"Yes."

Chelle affirmed Jin D's words honestly.

She had witnessed the work, albeit for a short period of time, and felt the love that <>, the Magecraft Master>>, poured into his creations.

I was able to believe that the creator's love for the creature, and the creature's love for the creator, is something that they will never deny or dislike.

"I would have liked to have met the maker of the cher."

"Yes,...... I'm sure you would have liked to have met Mr. Jin, too."

"I see."

Yes.

Indeed, Jin thought as he was piloting Jin D that even though he had only heard a little bit of what Chel had to say, he seemed to be a person who could understand each other.

As they were talking,

"This is the control room with the magic brain.

They had arrived at their destination.

"Come in, Jin-sama."

"Yes."

Chel entered the control room ahead of Jin D, indicated that it was safe, and beckoned him over.

"<>, I have brought a representative of the highest level of technician.

<>.

"...... representative?"

When Jin D wondered why she called herself a delegate, Chel smiled and explained the reason.

"Yes. You ...... have a body, don't you?"

"Yes!　You know ...... that?"

"Yes. I couldn't see it directly because of the warding on the surface of the body, but I had some information and was able to guess.

Chell's explanations are.

1. that the golems under the control of Jin and Machina III have the same magical power pattern.

2. that the djinn and Machina III are too well coordinated.

3. that Jin said that he does not like to stand out.

From these three points, we can deduce that Machina III is another face of Jin. I say.

They were working together in the recent conquest of the , and 1,

1. that Machina III is too dynamic for a technical person.

2. I did not feel any fatigue for the time we spent working together.

From these facts, they inferred that Machina III was an elaborate automaton or a body similar to an automaton.

"For safety reasons, there is no necessity for Jin-sama himself to be here. Therefore, we have determined that the body is a fake.

"...... is brilliant."

Jin, who was piloting Jin D, took off his hat.

"Chel, you have a brilliant mind. I respect your reasoning, your judgment, your imagination ...... and the creator who made you."

"Thank you."

At Jin D's words, Chel bowed deeply, showing her gratitude.

"But the and that move your body belong to Jin-sama. Therefore, I honor you as ."

"Thank you. That would be very kind of you.

The magic brain spoke to me just as I had reached the end of my conversation with Chell.

"Ah, thanks for waiting. My name is Jin. My name is Jin Nido. Also known as Jin Nido, I am the third generation of Magecraft Meister.

I'm the magical brain behind <<<< the second underground base. It's an honor to meet you.

"It's my pleasure. ...... Chelle is a really great automata. Her brain is especially impressive."

<<>

The magic brain then explained the current situation.

According to him, the base in <> has been deteriorating noticeably in recent years, but the materials used for repairs are in short supply, and at this rate it will begin to fail sooner or later.

"Yes, there are a lot of oxidized and degraded areas."

<>.

"You kind of get the idea."

"Yes, I do. So, where and how bad is it?　I'd like to start with the worst of the deterioration."

<<

"Ah, I see. Not the sensors themselves, but the conductors, right?"

"...... I suppose you don't have any mithril silver."

<

"What?"

<<

Hearing the composition, Jin D could vaguely imagine the properties of the alloy.

"I see......... doesn't sound like a bad alternative material. It seems to have good ductility and strength.

<<

"I suppose so. I'll get the mithril for you then."

.

Jin D was relieved and surprised that this magic brain was friendly and easy to negotiate with.

But for now, the details were to be decided.

The meeting between Jin D. and the brain of the magician continues.
