579 - - 17-28 Again 700672





Before returning to Horai Island, Jin visited <<700672>> once more as promised.

No. 700672 was still on the bed, but he greeted Jin with a smile.

"Welcome, Jin-dono.

"Thanks to you, I was able to fight against ."

Saying this, Jin handed over the recovery medicine again.

"Thank you. I've been feeling a little better since I started taking this.

"That's good to hear."

"Well, thank you."

Neige, who was standing by, looked up at Jin with a slightly happy expression on her face.

"Well then,<<......>>"

After a pause, Jin explained about the <> debacle.

"......Hmm, I see."

"Oh, I didn't know that."

"Interesting. That's what I'm talking about."

"...... Well, I can't thank you enough."

The explanation of the series of unfortunate events came to an end when No. 700672, who had been listening to Jin's explanation with his own hands, expressed his gratitude to Jin.

"Mister Jin Nido. Thank you for your wisdom, wisdom, and action.

With a tone and hand gesture that seemed somewhat exaggerated, No. 700672 thanked Jin Nido.

"No, I did it for my own sake."

"Hmm, that's natural. All living things live only for themselves. < differs from person to person."

"......"

Jin is unsure what to say to this philosophical line, and after a moment, he opens his mouth.

"You may indeed be right. ......"

To be honest, he didn't understand half of what was being said, but he didn't want to continue the conversation unless he said so.

"Hmm, you are still young. You may understand the words, but it will take time for you to understand the meaning.

No. 700672 looked at Jin as if he could see right through him and muttered.

"Well, you didn't just report what you did for me, did you? I'm sure there is something you want to ask me, isn't there?"

After a pause, No. 700672 said this as if he could see right through Jin's mind.

Jin's answer was.

"Yes, I would like to hear some of your old stories.

"Well, what do you want to ask me?

"First, about the original race that inhabited this planet when your came here.

Jin was still curious about the roots of the that lived in the demon tribe territory.

"Hmm, when my masters came, huh ......?"

700672 looked at him distantly and seemed to be remembering the past.

"It was farther south that I met the natives. They had a culture that only used crushed stone and had only just learned how to handle fire.

The stone age," Jin thought to himself.

"There were many small settlements scattered throughout the area. I remember that they moved entire villages to this continent and educated them to be their followers.

Did you sometimes have children with these natives?

"Yes. Most of the time it was with native women.

What did they look like?

"I think most of them were dark-skinned, probably because of their adaptation to the south."

This confirms Jin's assumption that the follower tribe is a native tribe.

"I understand. Thank you very much."

His doubts cleared, Jin thanked her for the clarification.

"Is there anything else?"

"No, there is, but it would be uninteresting if I asked you everything. I'll try to figure it out as best I can on my own."

"Oh."

Hearing Jin's answer, No. 700672 smiled pleasantly.

"......That's good. I'm sure you can do it.

After a pause, the 700672 continued.

"By the way, this may be unnecessary, but how can your body be so inconsistent?

"What?"

Unable to grasp the meaning, Jin tilted his head, and more words were thrown at him.

"How should I put it, most of your body looks fake. ......

"So ......"

"Isn't that because your father summoned you?"

Reiko, who had been silent until now, interrupted.

"Summoned? What do you mean?"

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



"Actually, ......"

Reiko then explained that she was the second generation, found after 1,000 years of searching for a successor according to the will of the previous Magecraft Meister, Adriana Barbora Zetsi. He explained that he was the second generation.

"Oh, I didn't know that ....... That's why you are not confined to the confines of this world."

Without any particular surprise, the 700672 accepted Reiko's explanation.

"But summoning, huh? Interesting. I understand the concept, but how is it done?

"I'm sorry, but I can't explain it to you because my memory of it is lacking, probably because I've used it too hard.

Reiko's predecessor, the automata, which was once broken by life after she entrusted everything to Jin. The relevant part of its control core was so damaged that it was missing when the knowledge and other information was transferred to the new control core.

"We may be able to reproduce it as we did then, if we only take the time to do so. ......"

It may take decades or even centuries, Reiko concluded.

"I see. I'm a little disappointed, but it's a subject I'd like to think about as well. ......

Then No. 700672 turned to Jin as if having second thoughts.

"So you are saying that your body was burned in your world, right? And when you were summoned, you received a body made of magical atoms (Magiatom).

Yes, yes. Or, more precisely, he was supplemented.

Hearing this, No. 700672 turned his head down and looked as if he was thinking. But he immediately looked up,

"That's the reason, isn't it? You said you fell into the molten iron, didn't you? That's probably why the lower half of your body and most of your internal organs are inert."

"Inert?"

Jin asked in a parroting tone.

"That's right. You could say that the magic atoms (magiatom) are pretending to make up your body. Anyway, it hasn't become accustomed to your original body."

"......"

"In that state, there are some defects, or rather, physical malfunctions, aren't there? For example, muscle strength does not improve even if you work out."

Jin nodded his head.

"Yes, I do. There are too many."

"Yes, I'm sure. They probably won't get any diseases, but they won't grow either. Besides, I don't think they'll be able to produce any offspring at this rate, will they?"

"Yeah. ......"

"......"

Not only Jin but also Reiko seemed to be astonished.

"What should I do? Please tell me!"

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



It was Reiko who approached No. 700672 with these words.

"...... don't panic, my masterly automaton!"

She gently stopped Reiko and began to explain how to deal with the situation.

"In a similar way, there was a technique to save a severely injured person. The missing body part is replaced with a temporary body that has been trained, and then the body is slowly acclimated to the new body.

"So?"

Reiko is still showing impatience. This is understandable, since this is about Jin's body.

Do you know that the cells that make up the body are renewed in cycles of a few days to a few months? However, this does not seem to be the case for special cells such as brain cells.

Jin nodded silently.

"Good. Most of your body is not in a state of renewal. By activating it, you should be able to bring your entire body into balance.

"In other words, you are now wearing ultra-precise prosthetic arms and legs, aren't you?"

"Oh, yes. That's a pretty close analogy. And the method of activation?

Jin swallowed hard.

"What kind of healing magic can we use? It would be difficult if we can't use cellular activation magic.

"In that case, you can use it until you are completely healed.

Reiko answers. Erza uses Shoro's imperial chanting, which is the highest level of surgical healing magic.

"Hmmm, I guess it is a magic for wounds and physical damage, isn't it? That's good. We just need to cast it on Jin-dono several to several dozen times.

By doing so, the cells that made up the original body would be activated, and the temporary body composed of magical atoms (Magiatom) would be activated in response.

"You may feel some pain or physical tingling when you are replaced. ......"

Since Jin had basically never been seriously injured, he had never had <> applied to his entire body. This is one of the reasons why he has been unaware of it until today.

When I followed Gigers up the mountain, I fell and scraped my hand on the way back, so it is not surprising that I did not recognize it.

"Try it once here, my masterly automaton."

Reiko agreed when No. 700672 told her that she was monitoring Jin's body.

"Father, may I?"

Jin has no objection.

"<>!"

"......Ugh! ...... ahhh......"

A dull pain shot through Jin's body. Jin hugs himself, breaking out in a greasy sweat. His face is furrowed in pain.

"Father!"

Reiko looked so worried that she might have turned blue if she could have changed her color. Jin tried to reassure Reiko, and squeezed out his voice.

"......It's okay," he said.

The pain subsided in a few seconds and Jin let out a relieved breath.

"Well, there is definitely an improvement. The current treatment has activated about five percent of the cells.

This means that he will have to endure the pain for another 19 times. Frankly, I'm getting a little tired of it.

"No, I don't think you have to do it continuously. It is said that the longer you wait, the more you get used to it.

Jin decided to stop that day, thinking that it would be better to do it little by little, once or twice a day.
