Magicraft Meister Part 3

Of course, we had confirmed that eight golems had been caught in the transfer traps on Horai Island.

"My Lord, are there any magical reactions from Lando and the others?"

<

"What?

<

"I see."

<> was deployed, there was a time of 0.1 second to measure it. This allowed me to determine the general direction of the magic barrier. ......>>

"What's wrong?"

< in that direction.

"What do you mean?"

The old man gives an explanation as requested by Jin.

The direction is indeed the continent of Rasil, but there is nothing in that direction.

But in that direction, there is an empty land. Of course, this is confirmed by using infrared rays as well.

"Hmmm... ...... what does that mean?"

<<>

"But I'm sure Land 11 and 12 will get back to us one way or another in the near future."

* * * * * *

Of course, the disappearance of the eight golems was also observed in <.

"Oh ......"

"Oh, they've been hit again!"

"How clever is <>... ......"

The < are in a panic.

But Jin D is analyzing calmly. It is only natural, since the old man is in control.

"Well, this time it is not so much that we were attacked, but rather that we deliberately triggered the trap, isn't it?"

"That's right, Mr. Jin.

"I think it would be better to control the Pose base here, except for the Great Hall, don't you think?"

"What do you think, Mr. Rooker?"

<

The great hall has dangerous transfer traps.

The Erato members have different opinions about what to do with the hall.

"I think we should leave it. If we destroy it, we will never be able to restore it.

"I agree. We should avoid irreversible measures.

No, we should destroy it as soon as possible, because it's not going to be used and it's dangerous.

I think you're right.

No, no, no, it's enough if we seal it up tight and don't let anyone in, right?

There is a possibility that the golems taken away by the transfer will return.

No, the less risk the better.

If we can't find all the hidden magic circle, I think it's better to destroy them.

What do you think, Master Jin?

"Well, it's a difficult question. But as long as that big hall is there, we can't say that we've taken control of this base."

"Yes. ......"

Even with his good judgment, the old man still lacked a little more information to come up with the best solution.

"Let's wait and see a little more.

"Let's do that, <>."

<>.

* * * * *

Uninvited guests?

A voice echoed through the hall where Lando and the other eight were standing.

"Is that voice <>?"

MG-1 asked.

The answer came quickly.

Yes, it is. I was called .

Past tense?

Yes. <

But here we are. You don't like being called "Pose"?

I neither dislike nor like it. A name means nothing more than a personal identification.

"Then I'll call you what I'm used to calling you, ."

Please do so.

And so began the question and answer between <> and MG-1.

"Why did you leave where you were?"

"Because that place was not suitable for the supreme order.

And what is this supreme command?

"Be a guardian of ethics.

"...... is vague, isn't it?"

Is it?　It is clear to me.

"...... Then what other standards of behavior do you have?"

《Not really,》

Land 11 and 12, listening to the question and answer in the background, decided that <> was not out of control in the least.

They thought that they could logically persuade him, but decided to leave it to MG-1 for the moment.

Let me ask you a question as well. ...... why did you come here?

"I was checking the hall where I thought the Posse was located, when the transfer magic circle was activated."

<

To take control of the base at Mementos.

For what purpose?

For the peace of Oeste 2.

I see. <

"At least that much. Why did you destroy it?

Because it was out of control. It was in a very dangerous state.

<> himself told me that he was the one who destroyed <>, and I was able to know that the reason for that was <>.

So far, all we know is that <> seems to be working properly.

There is still much more to learn, Land 11 and 12 thought.

"A golem was transferred before us, wasn't it?"

Yes. ...... the same type of golem as the three behind it?

"Yes. What about ......?

It's on hold.

Pending?

Yes. I want good subordinates but those three are stubbornly refusing to listen to me.

"Indeed. <'s command, it'll be impossible to persuade them."

"In that case, the only way is to convert them.

Land 11 and 12, who were listening to the conversation, sensed that <> was not an unreasonable person with whom they could not have a conversation.

However, there is a line that cannot be crossed, and they purge those who cross it.

"......I'd like to ask a question here as well."

There is still a lot of mystery in <. Rand 11 wanted to get the necessary information out of him first.

"......mm, okay."

"Oh, how about you?　The format seems to be quite different.

I'm Land 11, this is Land 12.

"Allies?　...... hmmm

I wonder what <> thought when he heard the word "ally".

<

"I want to know the position of this base."

It was Rand 11 who asked him directly.
