Magicraft Meister Part 3

In the end, there was nothing of interest on the floor that Jin and his team were examining.

All that remained was the top floor, which Zion and the others were examining.

"This place doesn't look very spacious, does it?

Zion said.

"No, Mr. Theon, you shouldn't judge it by its size. < were not so particular about such things."

700672 advised.

"Then, since it is the top floor, I wouldn't be surprised if there is something in there.

"Yes, I think Marikka is right. Let's not relax.

The group arrived at a room.

This is .......

"Wow, it's just like our old room!"

White!　It's white!

The room was white. Yes, just like the rooms in the original ship on the continent of Gondor.

"This may be the only place in this facility where the environment has been improved. ......"

The <> spoke to himself.

The whitewashing of the rooms was a favorite of many of the <>. The <> knows this.

All the other rooms were polished agate, and only this one room had been modified to be .

"But it doesn't look like he lived there. It was an office, at best."

"Father, how do you know they didn't live there?"

I don't know. Father, why?

"Because, unlike us, the masters were very much in pursuit of comfort.

The <>, Neige, and Rouge are homunculus, which means that they are inherently highly adaptable to their environment.

In extreme cases, they can operate for a year or so without sleep or food.

But the as described by the are different. Physically, they are human beings, no different from Arsians or Earthlings.

They are often unable to keep up with rapid changes in their environment and cannot adapt to harsh conditions.

That is why we have taken great care in creating an environment for them to in, the explained.

"That's why we decided that this would be a place for occasional visits at best."

"Okay, father."

"Yes, father."

However, it was the only trace of the masters found outside of the archives.

We checked all the other rooms, but there was nothing else of interest.

<

< gives an explanation.

"This seems to be the living room or office of . I don't think they stayed more than two nights in this environment."

"Well, could they have stayed one night?"

Reinhardt asked for confirmation.

"Yes. "Well, even in that case it would have been unavoidable. As you can see, we only have cots here."

Basically, he would not have stayed the night, assured him.

"Then what is this room for?"

Licia asked this time.

"That is a fair question. I think ...... that it is probably the room where they stay when they come to make their occasional rounds of this <>."

"Is that what you mean ......?"

Jin laughed inwardly when he heard this.

He knew that Jin would want to make it a little more ...... habitable, or even more so. In fact, he did so in the undersea base he had just built.

In that sense, <......<> can be said to have two aspects: the pursuit of efficiency and the spirit of fun.

When I mentioned this to <, I received an affirmation.

"Well, I think you are right in your judgment. It is true that had two sides to them. This was both their strength and their weakness ......."

Weaknesses?

Yes. It is a ...... weakness that impairs cooperation.

The point is that each person's < was not the same and sometimes clashed with each other.

In addition, he said, <> would inevitably have a hard time coming to terms when one person was trying to be efficient and another was trying to be playful .......

"In that sense, I envy you a little for being able to work together like this as a <>."

"......"

"............"

"Anyway, after looking around, I can tell you that this place does not function as a <>."

"Yes, it is. It was a purely archival or storage facility."

"That's what I think."

"But what do you mean by empty rooms?"

There were quite a few rooms left unoccupied, Jin said.

"I think they probably intended to store more and more materials. They probably intended to keep some samples as well as information plates."

But that may not have been possible, said a little sadly.

Whether this was due to a whim or because the had declined and gone into extinction, .......

Jin guessed that it was probably the latter, judging from the forlorn look on <>'s face, and asked no further questions.

* * * * * *

"Well, this is not a but a ..."

At first, Jin reorganized the situation.

"I'm going to investigate the data again. Can you help me?"

"Sure."

"Sure. I've been waiting for you to say that.

And so, the members of the split up to examine the archived materials.

<, Neige and Rouge said they were going to take a rest in the .

"I'll have Anne bring you some Persica juice.

"Oh, Jin-dono, I'm sorry."

< rested while Jin and the others went through the documents with all hands.
