Rubina was the first one to shine when she saw the Japanese samurai automata < and .

"Wow, that's amazing!　Of course it's Jin-sama's work!"

"Yes, I did. But let's have lunch first.

The menu was tempura udon.

Vegetable and wild vegetable tempura, white fish tempura, shrimp tempura, chikuwa tempura, and more.

You can enjoy the crispy batter or dip it in soup stock to taste the fluffy batter.

Jin likes both.

"Would you like another one?"

"Oh, thank you!"

"Then, me too."

"I'll have another one, too."

Since the bowl was a little smaller than usual, everyone had a second helping.

We finished off the meal with soba tea.

The aroma of the tea was a welcome relief.

"Listen to me while you drink."

Jin opened his mouth.

"Actually, I found the remains of the <> in the place we call <> the other day.

Everyone listened to Jin's story in silence.

"There were more than a dozen work golems. The biggest one is 15 meters long, and the smallest one is the size of a human being.

For now, Jin calls them what he is used to calling instead of <.

"I want to see it!　Jin-sama, I want to see it!"

Rubina shouted at the mention of a giant golem.

"I know, calm down!"

"That's right, Rubina."

"Yes, Rubina."

Jin laughed and continued.

"I'm going to save at least one of each of them, but I'm going to modify the rest of them to work and use them for Hale.

Jin then explained what state they are currently in.

"...... So, in short, the skeleton, the drive train, and the exterior are all that's left."

"That's what I mean. There's not a shadow of a control system."

You'll let me help you with that?

If you want to.

I wanna do it, I wanna do it, I wanna do it!　I wanna play with the Golem!

okay, calm down!

Jin calmed Rubina, who was about to get up from her seat and run out of the room.

"You don't know where it is, and it's not within walking distance.

"U...... yes?"

Rubina sat back down.

"What a child she is! ....... She's still just a kid," Amanda said.

Amanda says.

That's not the kind of thing you say to a 10 year old, Jin thought, but kept quiet.

"So, who wants to go see the golem after this?

Jin asked, and everyone except Rubina raised a small hand. It seemed that they were interested in the golem of the .

Rubina, of course, raised her hands vigorously and waved them.

"Okay. Then let's all go together."

* * * * * *

We have installed a warp gate, so the trip will be quick.

We have built a simple building at the site, where you can stay and sleep. Tea can be brewed and snacks are available when you need to take a break.

Welcome, gentlemen.

Right now, this place is managed by >10.

From 11 to 30, there are 20 Smiths in the room.

"Oh, Jin-dono, my guests."

"Oh, there's Rubi-chan!"

"Ruby-chan!"

It turns out that 700672, Neige and Rouge had arrived a short time before.

Neige and Rouge had become such good friends that they called Rubina <.

Jin led the group into the tent-covered workshop.

"Well, this is the giant golem."

"Wow. ......"

"Wow. ......"

The gigantic figure of 15 meters tall overwhelmed the audience. There are eight of them in a row.

Originally there were ten of them, but the best-preserved one has been easily maintained and preserved.

"All of them seem to be remotely operated and are not autonomous. That is why I named them ."

The one carrying the is Daidara, who was called from Horai Island. They are of equal size, so they can be carried around in his arms.

"That's Master Jin's golem over there."

Rubina's eyes are shining, and she looks as if she is about to run.

"I'm taking this one apart and analyzing it, do you want to see it?

"Yes!"

Rubina replies immediately.

"Okay, come on.

Everyone who is interested is welcome to come," Jin said, and they all followed him.

"Here it is."

"Wow, ......!"

Scaffolding has been set up around the < that has been laid out on the floor.

The exterior is half removed, revealing the inside.

"The structure is totally different. ......"

What Rubina means is that it is a different system from the < used by Jin and his associates.

Of course, it is different from other systems used in Ars.

But the structure was a little familiar to Jin.

Spherical joints.

There are ceramic dolls called bisque dolls.

Since they do not bend like soft vinyl dolls, they have joints to change their clothes. Most of them are called , with a sphere at the center of the joint.

The skeleton of this <'s had a similar structure.

"Isn't it inflexible?"

Rubina, who could tell at first glance that the puppet's structure was not flexible enough.

"That's right. Well, I guess they didn't think this large size needed flexibility.

I guess they cut down where they could and specialized it only for its intended use.

"Hmm, I don't really understand the origin concept."

"But it is important to guess such a design concept, isn't it?　Especially when repairing or modifying them.

Jin teaches Rubina gently.

"......Oh, yes, I think so. Jin-sama, I understand.

Rubina now accepts Jin's teaching.
