Elena, please.

Yes, my lord.

This is the new headquarters of the Nostalgia Party.

The island of Electra, one of the Pleiades (also known as the Pleiades Archipelago), is located further south of the Elias Peninsula.

The Nostalgia has established a new base in the basement of the island.

It has a that connects it to the former headquarters of the Nostalgia Party, .

Elena was asked by Jules Lorrain, the party leader, to come to the former headquarters at the Qasimunore base to test the warp gate.

"Oh, Elena. The test was a success.

Donald Callow, number two and head of the technical department, greeted her. He was also the former head engineer of the Kingdom of Celuloa.

"Donald, are the warp gates adjusted?"

"Yes, it's perfect."

"Yes, it's perfect now." "I see. Now we can get the materials from the Qasimunore base.

Yes, it will.

Nostalgia is steadily gaining ground.

Now that it's no longer a backroom organization, it can assert its presence with pride.

"That's true."

Elena agrees with Donald's line.

"But that's only possible because of Elena. <

"Oh, thank you."

Elena smiled broadly and brightly.

Elena's public diplomacy has been successful, and the Nostalgia Party is gaining recognition.

> The magical technology that is a step or two ahead of the rest of the world, except for Jin, is the focus of attention in many countries.

And it was now a well-known fact that Elena, the representative of this group, was an automata, a driving force that impressed the Nostalgia Party with its technological prowess.

"Well then, I'm going back to the headquarters."

"Yes. Tell Jules I said hello. I'll be back there in a few days.

Yes, sir.

Headquarters on Elektra Island became fully operational on this day. However, it is still only about 70% complete.

The remaining 30% will be slowly put in place.

"Golem development request?

The next day, May 22nd, Nostalgia received a request from the Kingdom of Elias.

It was a request for the development of a golem that could stand up to the Death Serpent.

"Yes. There have been three cases of Death Serpent attacks this year, and the Kingdom of Elias wants to form a security force.

Jules, the head of the security team, explains.

"I see, that's why they need the golem."

Elena nodded her head in understanding.

"It seems so."

"What about the required specs?"

"Well. The specifications are that it must be waterproof and swimmable. He said that the attack power is good, but that they can use magic tools even if they don't have it."

What did Donald say?

He said to leave it to him.

"That sounds like him. I'm going to go visit him later.

"Mm-hmm. I'll be back later for a little consolation visit. ...... Yes, Elena. I'm thinking of making Donald the base commander at Camp Casimunore.

But Elena nodded her head.

"I don't know about that. Wouldn't that take up too much of his research time?"

"I see. Perhaps it would be best to leave Donald free to do his own research."

"Yes, my lord."

Unaware of this exchange, Donald was working on the new Golem at the Kassimunore base.

"Well, waterproofing is the most troublesome. I guess I'll have to use magic resin.

Magi resin is a resin that reacts to magic power.

It is often used for common golems. Resin extracted from a tree with magical power, <>, is a typical example. It is also the technology that the young Adriana put to practical use.

"If the inside is filled with magical resin, the waterproofing is perfect. ...... but it lacks power and speed. ...... Okay, let's try it in a combined form."

Donald was, after all, a magecraftsman extraordinaire.

The inside of the golem was constructed as a skeletal golem, and the outside of the golem was completely covered with Magi-resin to make it waterproof.

"The problem is the synchronization of these two systems."

It's like having two different golems overlapping each other, so to speak.

If there is a discrepancy between the skeletal golem's movements and those of the magirezin golem, efficiency and precision of operation will be reduced.

Donald took data again and again to eliminate the discrepancy between the two systems.

"Finally, it's done!"

After two weeks of hard work, the first prototype is completed.

"Congratulations, Donald."

"Thank you, Elena. Let's test it first."

Donald had his assistant Golem carry Prototype 1 to the test site.

The site is a converted underground mine. It is a huge space the size and height of the Tokyo Dome.

<

"I'm looking forward to it."

"Yeah, you can count on it!"

Elena has also come to see the project, and Donald is very excited.

Since it is a prototype, it is not autonomous, but semi-autonomous, that is, it gives instructions on a case-by-case basis.

"Okay, Prototype 1, try walking."

It does not respond. This is because it is a prototype and has not been equipped with a speech function.

But it nodded its head to indicate that it understood, and the golem began to walk.

"Good, good, you're in good shape."

The movement is smooth and Donald is in a good mood.

"Okay, try some light running."

Since it is semi-autonomous, the golem interprets the vague instruction <> and starts running at 30% of full power. However, its movements are somewhat jerky.

"Ummm...... run as fast as you can!"

Following the instructions, Prototype 1 starts to run as fast as it can......, but its movements are clearly sluggish.

"No ...... good, come back."

Donald's shoulders slumped a bit, and he called Prototype 1 back.

"What's wrong with it?"

Elena asked Donald as he stopped Prototype 1 and began to adjust it again.

"It seems that the output characteristics of the two systems do not match.

Donald answered that the output characteristics of the two systems seemed to be almost the same at the time of walking, which was a weak output operation, but as the output was increased, there seemed to be a discrepancy.

In fact, the output of the magical resin system grows linearly with the input and stops growing when the limit is exceeded, while the output of the magical muscles used in the endoskeletal system gradually reaches a plateau.

"So the higher the output, the bigger the shift."

"That's right, Elena."

"So, we can't just put an auxiliary magic operator in one of the magic nerve lines?"

Donald nodded.

"That's exactly what we're doing. That's exactly what we're doing now, adjusting those operators."

Elena smiled at that.

"That's great, Donald. Good luck with that."

"Yes, of course."

Donald Callow had found the best solution by the end of the day.

With this, the mass production of the waterproof golem was now underway.
