207 - - 08-28 Defeated
That day, Reinhard had visited Stearina's house in the morning.
He was there to discuss about golem control. Therefore, he was accompanied by his own black knight (Schwarzlitter).

Because of Jin's warning, five guards were deployed around the house. They were the original guards and soldiers dispatched from the Shoro Empire.
"Welcome, Mr. Reinhardt.
Since last night, Stearina had been calling Reinhard by his name.

"Good morning, Stellina."
Reinhardt also called her by her given name.
They were ushered inside to a large living room. There stood two golems and two automata made by Stearina.

"This is my best work at the moment," she said.
"Well, it's wonderful."
One of the golems was the same type as the crystal golem

The automata are a girl in her late teens and an adult female.
The golems are
Without even a word of greeting, the two begin to talk. This is the spirit of a craftsman.

"The crystal golem, from the looks of it, you're using forming magic to make it work, aren't you? Isn't it too inefficient?
Reinhardt asks, and Stearina answers.
Yes, it is. That's why we are applying softening to the movable parts at the same time as forming.

"Hmm, I see. Compared to just deformation (forming), it saves about 30%, right?"
"That's right. Actually, it's more like 20% and a half. It can't operate for a long time. But the significance of the crystal golem is not its practical use.
Reinhardt agrees.

"That's right. I was shocked when I first saw Ceres. It's a direction that someone like me would never have thought of.
"Well, thank you. What about Custer at ......?
Of course, he was referring to the male golem.

"Well, this is typical of what happens when a female magecraftsman makes a male golem.
The figure has the appearance of a man of grace. It could be described as a male character drawn by a girl manga artist.
When Reinhardt said this to Stearina, she laughed,

"I'm not good with big men," she said.
Reinhardt did not hear it. Reinhardt ignored her comment.
"What is the body of the golem made of in terms of structure?

"Soft magic resin, right.
Soft magic resin is the material used for the body of ordinary golems. It is a resin extracted from a tree with magic power, <
In short, think of it as a kind of pine resin with magical powers. It is common to mix powdered mithril to make it more magical, or lead to make it heavier, and so on, changing the additives according to the purpose.

In the case of golems for combat, even the lowest quality of magic stone, or magic stone, is used. Such was the case with the golem that was the basis for Gon and Gen, who were once defeated by Jin.
It is rare for a golem to have a skeleton and muscles like the golem Jin makes.
"What about additives? My black knight (Schwarzlitter) is made of mithril and adamantite powder.

Reinhardt revealed a little secret about his Black Knight (Schwarzlitter).
"Well, adamantite powder? What does it do?"
"For one thing, it weighs a lot. Adamantite is heavier than lead. For another, guess what ......?"

Reinhard said with a mischievous smile.
"Well, I ...... don't know. Adamantite dampens magic and mithril allows it to pass through. They are opposites."
Reinhardt gives a hint to Stearina.

"That's a shame you know all that. I didn't say I was using
The hint seemed to hit home for Stearina. She is a first-rate magecraftsman after all.
"Okay! You mix mithril and adamantite in different parts!"
Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com
Correct. Mithril for the arms and legs. Adamantite for the torso. And adamantite for the tips of the hands and feet.
Stearina looks at Reinhardt with admiration.
"You're really good. I'll go first ......."

Just as Stearina was about to say this, there was a loud noise.
"What is that?"
Was it the front door?

Reinhardt and Stearina got up at about the same time and went out into the hallway.
"!!!!"
There were four dull silver golems, about two meters in height. I recognized their armored designs.

"No way, it's the Unification Party!
"How did they get here? What was the golem guarding the city of Dali doing?
What were my guards doing?

"Anna yowai golem nado ikura itemo onaji da sore ningen no goei nado nanimo dekinai."
One of them spoke. The voice is hard to hear, as if metal were being rubbed together.
"You don't mean to tell me that you walked through the city with impunity?

"No, he must have used the waterway behind the house.
Reinhardt thinks about the location of the house. The canal running behind the house leads to the Asur River. They probably entered Dali from there, disguising themselves as ordinary boats.
The Black Knight!

Reinhardt calls for the black knight he brought with him,
"Custer!"
Stearina called Custer.

"I don't want to waste my time on this!"
With that, one went toward the black knight (Schwarzlitter) and the other toward Custer. And the other two came toward Reinhardt and Stearina, respectively.
"d*mn!

Reinhard activates the protection ring that Jin gave him. The golem is blocked 30 centimeters in front of Reinhardt.
The Black Knight and Custer collide with the enemy golem.
The black knight (Schwarzlitter) swung his fist at the enemy golem, sending it flying away.

"You're not so tough after all!"
The golem, which seemed to be the spokesman, commented. Hearing this, Reinhardt learned that their information had been passed on to the Unifilers.
"Black Knight! Give it everything you've got! Destroy them!

Yes, sir!
The Black Knight gave it his all. His blow had the power to blow off the head of the enemy golem. Then, the Black Knight (Schwarzlitter) confronts the second golem.
A battle between autonomous golems. Holes are torn in the walls of the house and pillars are broken. But there is no time to worry about that.

"Kyaaaah!
comes the scream of Stearina. Reinhardt turns around to see that Custer has been destroyed and Stearina has been captured by the enemy golem.
"Stearina!"

Reinhard bit his lip. He should have pulled her close to him and kept her inside the barrier.
"Maz, hitori kakuho!"
said the golem that seemed to be the spokesman.

"Reinhard, what's your name?"
"............"
When Reinhardt didn't answer, the golem spun more words.

"Hm, Schwarzritter is not okay with you.
Now the black knight (Schwartzritter) has just defeated the second golem.
All that remains is the golem holding Stearina and the golem in front of him.

"Good, good, I'll make my own jitsuryoku..."
The golem in front of him said so and headed toward the black knight (Schwarzritter).
This was a good chance for Reinhardt, he could not resist if Stearina was taken hostage, but the golem, the leader of the enemy, seemed to be simple and willing to fight the black knight (Schwarzritter).

Since then, Reinhardt has also improved and strengthened the black knight (Schwarzlitter). Even if he could not beat Reiko, he did not intend to lose to the Golem of the Unifiler.
"Go, Black Knight!
"Yes!"

With a short answer, the Black Knight engaged the enemy golem. For a moment, their physical strength is in conflict, and their movements come to a halt.
The two were in a state of struggle.
The two fighters continued to push each other, but there was no winner.

"Mo juubunda zenryoku de ixo!"
The enemy golem says, and its strength rapidly increases. The black knight (Schwarzritter) is defeated. They are slammed against the wall while still in a tight group, and then they smash through the wall, hit a pillar, and come to a stop.
However, the enemy golem does not stop. With its rapidly rising power, it pulled out the right arm of the black knight (Schwarzritter). And the next moment, the left arm.

"What?
Reinhardt can't believe what he is seeing. But it is real. The enemy golem kicks the black knight (Schwarzritter) down, and then rips off both of his legs one after another.
It is a tremendous power. It's like ......

The stunned Reinhardt uttered these words.
"Reiko? Is that the name of the golem?"

Leaving the black knight (Schwarzlitter) limbless, the enemy golem again closed in on Reinhardt.
"U......"
Reinhardt realizes that he was about to accidentally divulge information and shuts his mouth.

"I'm going to be very careful now."
The enemy golem then approaches Reinhardt, holding Stearina hostage.
"I'm sorry, but I can't help it."

"Mr. Reinhardt! You can't do this!
Stearina says stoutly, but the next moment her arm is twisted up and she screams.
Reinhardt could not bear to see her like that.

The barrier is released. Then the enemy golem, perhaps knowing that this is the effect of the ring, twists up Reinhardt's arm as well and removes the protection ring from his finger.
At the same time, chokers were placed around their necks. It was the same choker that had been placed on Erza. It is a magical device that interferes with the chanting of magic and makes the wearer physically ill.

They made a loud noise so that onlookers and guards would come. With these words, the golem led them out through a hole in the wall.
They were just above the canal, and a black boat was floating in the water.

Reinhard and Stearina were kidnapped in broad daylight.
There were many witnesses, but they could do nothing but watch the black ship sail down the channel toward the Asur River.
