On April 23, 3457, the Unification Party (Unifiler), which had planned to unify the continent inhabited by humans, was destroyed by the Horai Island forces led by Jin The Unification Party (Unifiler) was destroyed by the Horai Island forces led by Jin.

The Unification Party was led by a mad automata, <> Elena, but by lifting her brainwashing magic <><>, most of the party members came to their senses and joined the newly born <> and contributed to the stabilization of the situation on the continent.

However, there were some who did not like it.

Originally, there are few people in the Unification Party (Unifiler) who are obsessed with self-interests, and even if there were, they would never make it to the top.

But those with magical-technical skills were the exception.

Most of them were what one might call "technical idiots" who did not care who their patrons were as long as they could do the research they liked.

Most of them were attached to the Unification Party (Unifiler) without brainwashing because of their ability, and those who were attached to the Unification Party were the ones who escaped as soon as possible.

"Well, the Unification Party (Unifiler) didn't make the best use of my ability, did they?

Dajur Harvey, the deputy director of the Unifiler's technical department, was running along the road at night, muttering to himself.

But it is his golem that is running, and Dajour himself is being carried on his back.

"......But don't rock the boat. ......It's starting to make me sick. ......"

The golem runs at full speed at about 30 kilometers per hour. The ups and downs are also quite violent, and Dajjur, who is being carried on his back, feels sick, but he cannot stop the Golem, so he keeps on running.

It was about 80 kilometers from the area near Kasimunore in the Kingdom of Selroa, where the headquarters of the Unifiler was located, to Genf in the Kingdom of Franz. On the way, we crossed the border on a roadless road.

The golem's speed was slowed down so that the bad mood was somehow relieved, but now the hunger came.

"I'm hungry......I'm thirsty......"

After almost a whole day of not eating or drinking, Dajour was close to his limit.

It was almost dawn when he approached Te To, with the town of Iyar on the side. Dajjur felt faint there.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * *

"...... uu......"

Dajour Harvey regained consciousness again on a comfortable bunk.

A pitcher of water and a glass lay by his bedside, and Dajur absentmindedly picked up the pitcher, sipped directly from it, and drank the contents.

"...... wind."

His unbearable thirst was quenched and he had time to look around.

"Where am I?"

He was in a small but clean room. There was no sign of life, so I assumed that the room was usually unused.

At that moment, the door opened and two men appeared.

"Oh, you noticed," they said.

"You are ......."

One of the men appeared to be in his late 40s, rather small, with a thick build that seemed to be wider than it was. Dull blond hair, blue-gray eyes. The other man seems to be a guard.

"...... Lord Orange, I think."

Dajour, who was one of the leaders, recognized Lord Orange, one of the Unifiler's supporters.

"You're Dajour Harvey or something like that, aren't you?"

Dajour nodded.

"I heard that the ...... Unification Party (Unifiler) was defeated. You don't know who they are?"

"......Yes. Except that it seems to be a deus ex machina or something like that."

"Hmm, the one who turned the recent conflict upside down."

I guess you could say that."

At that moment, Dajur's stomach growled loudly.

"Well, you must be hungry. Let me bring you some food. We'll talk more about it later."

* * * *

"This is the fort."

Three days later, Dajur Harvey was at Fort Crau.

After that, he had heard from Lord Oranje about a fort full of artifacts.

"You are a supporter of the Unifiler, but you didn't report it?

When Dajour said this, Prince Oranjee snickered.

"Yes, I support them. "Yes, I did. But that's one thing, this is another. This fort is valuable. It would be a shame to give it to someone else.

True to his words, Fort Crau was a wonderful place, even from Dajour's point of view.

Above all, the blue-haired automaton was still there.

"If Elena saw it, she'd probably tell you to destroy it.

Dajjur chuckled and set about repairing the blue-haired automaton.

"...... d*mn, there are things even a genius like me can't understand!"

Dajjur was thinking to himself. The blue-haired automaton he was repairing, some of its contents he could neither understand nor analyze.

"I guess we'll just have to leave it as it is..."

It was the Magi Device, which Jin called an <<>.

The elaborate structure of the device was beyond the comprehension of Dajour, a <>.

So Dajur had no choice but to work on the outer parts, namely the drive and control systems.

A repaired automaton greets Dajour in faltering speech.

Dajour's technology could only repair the automaton to this extent.

"Get on with it, you fool!"

.

The automata, which called itself Rolle, was set to recognize the person in front of it as its master when it was activated.

Therefore, Dajur became Lol's master without any difficulty.

.

Rolle's knowledge was not much, but it was of great use. It was that he knew of the existence of an automata that assisted the commander of Fort Crow.

The automaton was called .

"Make this one speak properly as a top priority," he said.

"I don't need to be told."

Lord Orange and D'Azur's intentions were the same. With Refa, the assistant automaton, it would be much easier to restore the functions of Fort Crau.

Dajour, in cooperation with Bokker Ove, the engineer who is the patron of the Prince d'Oranje, repairs Refa.

Repaired so that it can talk for the time being, Refa is a treasure trove of information.

If he could reactivate his <, all the functions of the Magi Fortress would be restored.

That there is a basement where various artifacts of the artifact class magic tools lie.

And the knowledge of the culture and civilization of the past, that is to say, before the Great Magic War.

Prince Oranje ordered Dajjour and the other mages to restore the <> to life. At the same time, he ordered them to search the basement.

He would not give the precious knowledge of the past to anyone else, but would keep it to himself alone.

In addition to Dajour, other engineers who had escaped from the Unified Party (Unifiler) came to Fort Croix.

This was a comfortable place for the engineers as well as the Unified Party (Unifiler) because they could hide themselves and have access to the super-technologies of the past.

As usual, the structure and manufacturing process of <> and <> could not be understood.

* * * * * *

A little time passed. Lord Oranje became a traitor and fled to Fort Crow.

The fort had enough food, water, and medicine for a year, so he was not in trouble, but he was a rat in the sack.

"What, I will only have to defeat the rebels (partisans) and make myself king.

The former Duke of Orange had a high opinion of the potential of Fort Crau.

One day, precious information came from Leffa's mouth.

A special golem to maintain the Magi Fortress. If we can find it, we can repair the fortress at once.

And .......

It was on March 9, 3458 that the golem for repair, which had been stored deep in the basement, was found.

This was the moment when the situation was to take a turn.
