"Golem, do you speak that fluently?

"Yes, they do."

Jin answers simply.

"It has to have a speech device and a language processing function, but this one has a control core made by Niko-ichi, so even if the quality is a little poor, the functionality is good enough.

"I see. ......"

"Well, now that you've got a good assistant, you'll be able to work more efficiently. <

"Yes, Master."

"Yes, and call me by my name."

Yes, Master Jin.

He somehow thought that it would be better to avoid <> in front of Paelova and the others.

Jin's own golem was used as his assistant, which made his work much more efficient.

He understood the nuances of the work and took the initiative.

"Okay, take care of this one."

"Yes, Mr. Jin."

"How about that one?"

"Yes, just about done."

The remaining four are being repaired in no time at all.

"Wow. ......"

No wonder Ka'Chea is amazed. The work is progressing several times faster than when he had the repaired golems helping him.

Still, Jin seems to be taking it easy.

"......After all, work efficiency is something that should be done with ...... in mind."

In the evening, before 5 p.m., thirteen golems had been repaired and were in line.

The surplus was 700 grams of iron and 3.3 kilograms of bronze.

And four used magi crystals that were deemed unusable.

"Oh, oh, oh, oh!　You're done already!

I heard a loud voice and turned to see Paelova. Jed Alamordo had come with him and was looking at the completed golem with wide-eyed amazement.

"Yes, I just finished it just now. You gave me permission to make an assistant golem, so I've been working on it.

"Oh, I see!　Which one is the ...... assistant golem?

Yes, this one. ...... Hope, say hello to Master Paelova.

"Nice to meet you, my name is Hope, Master Paelova."

"Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!　You speak?

"Yes. Yes, I'm your assistant, so it's not convenient if I can't talk.

"That's not what I meant, but ...... well, that's okay. You did a good job, Mister Gin!

Paelova is in the best of moods. She says that there will be a banquet tonight, and Jed rebukes her.

"Jin-dono, it is a great pleasure to have you with us.

Paelová Sondovík, who had straightened up her residence, shook Jin's hand, and Jin responded in kind.

The first time he shook Jin's hand, Jin responded in kind.

"But this is the first time you've made a happy mistake, isn't it?

Yes. I was surprised that he had such a great skill.

After tomorrow, I'll let you see the important facilities in town.

That's a good idea. ...... but you won't be able to avoid meeting someone like that.

"That's not an option. Someone ...... should go with you. That way there won't be any commotion.

I'll be right with you.

I'll be right with you.

"The missing fire magic crystal (magi crystal) or ......"

Normally, they would have been discarded, but Jin was able to get them from Paelova and Jed.

"With this size and quality, even with <>, it is impossible to make a <>. <."

Guard ring can create a barrier against attack magic of advanced level, and protect ring can create a barrier against attack magic of intermediate level.

Of course, Jin himself can also put up a barrier, but with these items, he can rest and sleep with peace of mind, and he can allocate his resources to other things.

"<><>><>><>...... now, okay."

Assistant golem and protection ring. Jin sighs in relief, now that he can rest assured of his own safety.

"I heard that tomorrow we're going to look around at all the magi machines in town. I'm looking forward to ...... that."

Our immediate goal is to cross over to the Laurentian continent. To do so, we must gain their trust and secure our freedom of movement.

(Elsa......Reiko......Mr.......Hannah......... ...just wait for me......I'll return at any cost)

Looking up at the night sky through the small window, Jin renewed his determination.

The next day, July 27th.

Jin left for the town of Lawhon with Cachier and his officer in charge, Karlich Gawler, and Jed Alamold.

Hope, the assistant golem, was not allowed to accompany them.

"It's a nice town, isn't it?

It is a little too neat. Jin thought that this was probably due to the fact that the town was planned and built.

It is a bit of an exaggeration to say that the town has a long history, but in an old town, extensions, renovations, and new constructions are all mixed together, giving the town a chaotic feeling.

This is not the case here. Almost all the buildings look the same age.

Knowing the background of a new town built on a new continent, it is easy to make such assumptions.

Let's go to the community center first. I want you to take a look at the mana stand there.

The word came up unexpectedly. <

"I understand."

On the surface, Jin is trying to appear nonchalant, but inwardly he is looking forward to it.

He was eager to find out what the system looked like at the moment.

"First of all, here. Actually, there are four of them in the town, where you can replenish your mana at a reasonable price.

"I see."

Jin looked at the < in front of him. However, even Jin could not understand it just by looking at it from the outside.

"Do I have to maintain this?

"If it can be done, yes.

"Let me take a look first."

Jin walked up to the mana stand and looked at it from top to bottom.

It was about the size of a drum. It was cylindrical and had a thick conductor attached to it like a hose.

When the end of the conductor is pointed at the mana tank and activated, it seems to be able to fill up with mana.

"<><><>...... hmm?"

"What's wrong, Mister Jin?"

Jin turned around and looked at Jed.

"Jed, please don't make fun of me. This thing isn't working. It's not maintenance, it's repair."

"Ummm...I didn't think you could tell that much right away when you saw ....... ....... No, I apologize. If you can fix it, I'd like you to fix it."

"Okay. Let's take a look inside anyway."

Jin quickly removed the exterior.

"The ether converter is broken. It must be due to overuse.

Jin recognized the problem at a glance.

"Can you fix it with ......?"

"Yes, if you have the Magi Crystal."

Hearing Jin's words, Jed Alamold made an immediate decision.

"Okay, let's go see Lorenz."
