When Reinhardt arrived at Horai Island, he met Jin in the reception room of the institute.

He first presented the luggage he had brought to Jin.

"What is this?

"Well, open it."

Jin took out the contents of the package and laid them out on the table.

"This is ......."

What came out were two books that recorded the history of the war of magic. And a doll. A package that appeared to be Reinhardt's personal belongings.

"I took care of it at that time, but I think it is better for Jin to keep this record, and this doll should be returned to Erza.

The doll was Non. Erza had left it behind when she ran away from home, and Jin had caught it when Erza's brother Fritz knocked it off the table, and Reinhardt had kept it.

Reinhardt said, "I'll give it to Erza later. I'm sure she'll be pleased."

"Oh. Thank you for taking the trouble. And I'll let you know when I've deciphered these records.

Yes, thank you.

Jin then called Lao Tzu, the human terminal, and handed him the record and ordered him to decipher it.

"Yes, my lord."

Lao Tzu said and left. Tomorrow the decipherment would be finished.

"Well, I have been sending my automatons to various countries for some time now. According to this, the Kingdom of Franz has declared war on the Kingdom of Klein."

Reinhardt looks surprised.

"Well, I guess it's finally happened, but why now?

"I want to hear your opinion, Reinhardt. I also feel that Reinhardt's safety is in danger if he stays in the Kingdom of Celluloid.

Jin spoke his mind honestly.

"Yes, I appreciate that. Two of my guards have been killed and my black knight (Schwarzritter) has been destroyed.

Reinhardt looks a little sad.

"It's ...... a pity about the black knight."

Jin understands this feeling.

"Yes. The most regrettable thing is that the broken Black Knight was confiscated by the Kingdom of Celuloa.

"What?"

According to Reinhardt's explanation, the destroyed Black Knight (Schwartzritter) had somehow been brought back by the soldiers of the Kingdom of Celuloa, and not a single piece of it remained in Stearina's villa. And no matter how much he complained, he never got it back.

"You've got to be kidding me. ......"

Jin, who was listening to the story, was getting angrier and angrier. But then.

"Huh? The Black Knight (Schwarzlitter)?"

Jin tried to remember.

"I heard that Reinhardt was kidnapped ......, and then, uh, I asked Cosmos and Sage of the SP to investigate Reinhardt's magical power pattern.... ..."

He seems to remember.

"Uh, sorry, Reinhardt."

What?

"The Black Knight, he's with me."

Jin then explained that he had brought the black knight (Schwarzlitter) to the Falcon in order to find Reinhardt.

"And they brought it to the laboratory and it's still there. I'm sorry!"

Jin apologizes with his head so low that it sticks to the table.

"Oh, no, please raise your head. Oh, so Jin was the one who retrieved it for me. Thank you.

"As an apology, you can fix it here! You can use the materials as you like!"

Jin even said. Reinhardt is astonished at these words.

"Really? That's great!"

Now there's no time to talk. First, the two head for the workshop. They have nothing to complain about, since they are so much alike.

They are not talking about politics, not about their country, but first of all, they are talking about craft.

Reinhardt is led to the workshop, where a dismembered Black Knight (Schwarzlitter) is placed on a table.

"Black Knight (Schwarzlitter) ......"

Reinhardt's face is once again clouded by the devastation of the Black Knight (Schwarzritter). But..,

"This time, I'm going to make you a golem that no one can defeat," he mutters.

He mutters, "This time, I'm going to make you a golem that no one can beat. Then he looks back at Jin,

"Except for ...... Reiko and the others."

* * * *

"I'll make a golem with a skeleton, too."

Reinhardt, who has seen Jin's golem several times, mutters. Reinhardt then said to Jin, "Reinhardt, I'm going to make a golem with a skeleton,

"Reinhard, I have a favor to ask of you, too.

Reinhard said.

"What is it?"

"The underwater golem that Reinhardt showed me, I think it's called Lorelei. I'd like you to show me how it's made. What do you think?"

"Oh, I see. That's fine. I'm going to use Jin's golem as a reference.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Reinhardt readily agrees and explains the structure of Lorelei and its key technology. I have some questions for Jin later on, so I guess I've been generous enough to tell him everything I know.

"I guess you could say ......."

"I see, I didn't know there was such a trick to moving the tail fins."

Jin is happy to hear a few tricks.

"But, Jin, are you going to make an underwater golem too?

Reinhardt asked, to which Jin nodded.

"Yes. Horai Island is an island. I thought it would be effective for fortifying the sea and developing the underwater world.

"I see, that's true. And now I have a point I'd like to know a little bit about.

Yeah, what's that?

"About the way you put on the muscles, you used to put them at an angle in some places, didn't you? What does that mean?

"Oh, that. They imitate the way human muscles are built, and by putting them at a slight angle, they allow the arms and legs to twist.

Reinhardt's eyes lit up,

"Oh, yes, that's it! That's the secret of their natural movement!"

Human arms and legs do not simply bend and stretch, they can also twist, and their normal movements are a combination of these.

Therefore, the golems and automata that Jin makes can move more like humans.

"Okay, if that's the case ......."

Reinhardt was about to get into his stride when...

"Father, Mr. Reinhardt, it's late. You can continue tomorrow."

Reiko warned him.

"Oh, it's that late already. Reinhard, let's do it tomorrow.

Jin obediently agreed. Reinhardt reluctantly complied.

The two left the institute and went to the pavilion to lightly sweat it out in the hot spring before going to bed.

* * * * * * * * * *

The Kingdom of Cerroa is currently in the lead.

That's true.

The Kingdom of Klein is also fighting hard, but is slowly being pushed back by the Kingdom of Franz.

Well, that's to be expected.

So what's the plan now?

Well, as planned.

Yes, as planned. We'll send in the Golem unit when the time is right, right?

Yes. And that new weapon...

Oh, that? You're going to use it in a real war?

Yes. The stupid countries will be stunned.

You're right, sir.

The time has come for us to take over the continent.
