 Having slaughtered up to three of the six remnants, Reiko continued to aim for more targets without rest.

 This time, after about 30 seconds of flight, she descends into the jungle.

"I wonder if they are looking for me in a place like this.

 Reiko could understand why she would think so, for the area was overgrown with vegetation.

 Unusual for this cold region.

 And .......

"So this is what you mean."

 There we found a golem with both legs broken.

 It was lying on the ground, entangled in ivy.

 But its upper body was intact, so when it saw Reiko, it stretched out its arms and tried to attack her.

"......Do you still want to destroy me after all this? That's more of a <> than a <>. ......

 With such a mutter, Reiko slashed at the golem with her and brought it to a halt.



 After that, she cleared away the golem's tangled ivy and the surrounding grass and bushes, and after confirming that the <> had recovered without any problems, she turned her feet to her next target.

"The next one is ...... a little further away."

 Reiko took off from there toward the northwest.

 After retrieving the four golems, Jin looked at the one with both legs damaged and tilted his head.

"This one's damage ...... is strange, isn't it?"

"What's wrong, Jin? What's funny?

"Oh, Beena. Look at this cross-section.

It's beautiful.

It's beautiful, isn't it? First of all, it's sharp, like it was cut with a sharp knife. And it's not oxidized. The metallic luster is still there.

"Huh? Jin's reaction suggests that Reiko didn't cut it, did she?

 It seems that Bina had thought that Reiko had cut it with the .

"No, no. Reiko cut the body. Here, this one."

"Oh, ...... this one has a nice cross-section too."

"Well, that's all right, but there's hardly any difference, is there?"

"Yes, it is."

"Well, if you look closely at the leg, you can see a slight cloudiness, so it must have been cut a few days ago."

"What?"

 Bina seemed to finally understand what Jin meant, and surprise flashed across her face.

"Wait a minute. Does that mean there is that cut off this golem's legs?"

"That's what I'm thinking, isn't it? But the golem's body was covered with a lot of ivy. That means it's been there for more than a few months.

 Jin said, "It wouldn't be tangled if it hadn't been still and motionless during that time.



"Ah, I finally understand. That's why Jin said there was something wrong.

 Bina nodded her head.

"...... So you're saying that the golem had its legs cut off by something <>?"

"No, it could have been cut off at the same time as it stopped moving. And now, a few months later, here we are.

"Well, that's a little strange."

 Reinhardt, who had been listening to Jin and Bina's conversation, also found it strange.

"Why did it stay still until the ivy became entangled, and what cut off the golem's legs, and why?"

"Yeah, that's what Reinhardt summed up for me, that's my question."

"I can guess at each one, but it's hard to ...... come up with a hypothesis that doesn't contradict all three together."

"Hmm. The ...... that stops working is <><> and <>...... or something like that."

"Hmm. Was it ...... another golem that cut you off?"

"But why? Is there a golem from a hostile force?"

 Erza, Saki, Goose, and others weighed in.

"It's hard to imagine that it's malfunctioning. It was working until a few minutes ago.



 Erza asked Jin.

"Brother Jin, is there any information in the golem's ?"

"......Oh, ......I didn't know you had it in you."

"That's unusual, even for Jin."

"No kidding."

"Kuhu, that can happen, can't it?

"How do you say this kind of thing in the language of the country of Jin and <?

 Jin replies to Guth's words, scratching his head.



"I guess you're right about all of them. ...... I was totally careless."

But as for Jin, it's partly because he saw how cleanly the cut was made.

Well, I guess Bina's right.

 Jin cannot deny that he was fascinated by the mystery in front of him.

 After all, he had successfully slashed through the <, which was also made of adamantite, albeit thinly.

 Jin therefore checked the <> of the <>.

 Reinhardt and Erza are helping him.

"How did it go?



 Bina and the other members hurriedly asked when they saw the three of us frowning.

The one that cut the golem's leg was the same type of golem as the <>. However, it had a shield and a sword.

 If it was a mass-production machine, I thought it was strange that I hadn't seen it anywhere else," Jin said.



"The reason why the <> couldn't move is that it was probably subjected to some kind of <>."

 Jin explains that the continuity of the information record was broken from that moment.

 Naturally, the golem does not know the elapsed time. However, we can guess that it must have been more than a week since the vines were entangled.

"You mean to say that it has been stopped for such a long time? < is no longer effective?"

 Bina's words were a natural question.



"That part is a mystery, though. ...... but I think it was just a magical tool that has a long-lasting effect."

"What does it mean?"

"Well, for example, you wouldn't want the enemy to stop, and then when you turn off the ethereal eliminator to pull him out, he starts moving."

"Well, that's true."

"I don't know why they didn't destroy it completely, but maybe it was some kind of ethereal eliminator with that effect?"

"I'll take that as a yes."

"You should. I wasn't looking at it myself.

What else?

The third is the reason why your leg was cut off. ...... Apparently, he attacked the guy and he got hit back.

 The bottom line is that he was .

"You mean he attacked you and not Lako?"

"That's what I'm thinking. Well, it's been quite a few years since it was made, so it's possible that the sensors malfunctioned."

 I think it was a random attack on a moving humanoid," concluded Jin.



 This was enough to explain the reason.

 However, there was still one more big mystery to solve.

 Yes,
