<, asked a question about <>.

"<>, right? ...... I see, so it wasn't communicated to you?"

"Yes."

is a magic that should be used when making golems and automata.

It is one of the engineering magic that Adriana Barbora Zetsi, the first <>, perfected after a great deal of effort.

Thanks to this magic, the education and training of golems and automata became much easier.

"And, since you have the aptitude for it, I guess ......."

"Is that so?　Can't you do something about it?"

Ariana asked.

"To be or not to be, ...... let's check your aptitude first."

So I pretended to take it out of my baggage and sent a small <> from Horai Island.

"If you try to use > on it, you will be able to see its aptitude."

Jin D began to explain.

"First of all, you need to write the original data into this ....... ....... Then, you can do a transinfo on this one to find out the aptitude.

"What?

The members of the Progressors were surprised that their understanding of what had just taken place in front of them had not caught up with them, and that several high quality Magi Crystals had come out of their baggage.

"Well, it's okay if you fail. We're just going to check your aptitude.

Jin D handed Rodriguez the Magi Crystal.

"This way, this way. < at ......."

"I understand."

<

"Is this correct?"

"Yes, that's fine.

After receiving the Magi Crystal for testing, Jin D tried <>.

"Ha-ha-ha, Mr. Rodriguez has the aptitude for it, doesn't he?

"Really?

"Yes, it's true.

Yes, it's true.　Thank you, Mr. Jin, or Ms. Jin, thank you very much!

Rodriguez is so moved that he is about to dance.

"No, I was just conducting an aptitude test.

"But still!　At my age, I have a glimmer of hope!　Thank you!"

I'm happy for you, my dear.

"Yes. Now we're one step closer to our dream!

Ariana, right? You too.

Yes.

Jin D. handed the Magi Crystal to Ariana, Rodriguez's wife, and explained in the same way.

"So, let me try it. ......<>"

"Yes, that's fine. ......<>......Oh, Ariana, you have the aptitude too."

"Oh, really?　Are you sure?　You are!

"I'm so happy for you, Leah!"

Jin D smiled as he saw the happy Mr. and Mrs. Rodriguez clasping hands.

"So, um, Mr. Rooijhardt?"

"Yes, yes."

As a result, Ruijkert and Elsia also had the aptitude for transinfo.

"And last but not least, Mr. Lubark..."

"Oh."

Jin D. gave Lubark Bassi the Magi Crystal and explained in the same way.

Then he said.

"......Good, here we go......<>!　How's ...... going?"

With confidence, Lubark Bassi handed Jin D the Magi Crystal.

"<>......Yes,uh,......I'm sorry, but you don't seem to be apt for it. ......"

"What?　That's ridiculous!"

Jin D says apologetically.

"No, there are people. There are about one person in a thousand who is good at other engineering magic, but not so good at transinfo.

But even so, Lubark Bassi is not convinced.

"...... is it not your teaching method that's wrong?"

"Hey, Lubak!

"Hey, Lubak.

"How can that be?　You heard the same explanation as we did.

Lubark Bassi refused to listen to his friends' attempts to quiet him down.

"Then why can't I do it?

"No, that's why, because you're not good enough ......".

"I'm talented!　I can't not do it!"

Jin D explains softly, but it's still no good.

"Did you say Rubak Bakshi? What's not good enough is not good enough.

Deus ex machina, unable to see the situation, says to him.

"You know, ......".

Rubák Bassi could not keep his mouth shut.

Unlike Jin D, Makina was not so soft-spoken.

And the squire, Rey, was glaring at him.

"......I'm sorry, I'm upset."

That was all he said, regretfully.

"Oh, um, our goal is to create the world's best automata!

Ariana said, trying to manage the awkward atmosphere.

"Oh, it's only a , and the best in the world is definitely Sir Leco. ......, could you take a look at it and see how good it is?"

"Yes, I'd like to see it."

The old man who was piloting Jin D nodded his head as he would have done.

"............"

But no one noticed the dark fire burning in Lubark Bassi's eyes at that moment.

* * * *

That was all for that night, and the five members of the <> left.

On Horai Island, Jin sighed.

"I guess the Progressors aren't all on the same page.

<

Jin nods at the old man's words.

"Yes. I had a feeling.

"It's a pity.

Elsa sighed. It seems that some of her distant descendants are disappointed.

"I can't help it. That's how human beings are.

Jin chuckled as he said this.
