Magi Craft Meister Vol 3 Chapter 4

　Jin and the others are having dinner at the Sea Pavillion, it wasn’t much but they had a toast for the formation of the team.

　They raised and tapped each other’s glasses. And,

　Incidentally MJR was made up of the initials of Marcia, Jin and Reiko. Of course, Jin had left the naming up to Marcia.

「By the way, that smug man from before, who was that guy?」

　Marcia seemed to have difficulty saying it. Jin sensing that,

　He said, but Marcia had resolved herself,

　Saying that, she began to talk.

「Huh?」

「What a ridiculous guy……」

「I don’t know why he’s taken an interest in me.」

「So is that guy also entering the competition?」

「It is impossible for Onii-sama to lose to such a man.」

「Y-Yeah. I believe so too.」

　Somewhat forcibly, Jin attempted to change the subject.

「It’s fine, normal materials are enough.」

「Helping with the fishing? Why?」

「It’s a bit embarrassing, but even if it’s just a little, I want to get used to riding a boat and while I’m at it, earn a little money.」

　Since Jin liked how delicious the meals were. On the side, Reiko diligently made note of Jin’s tastes.

　Marcia nodded.

「Otou-sama is really whimsical. Are you helping others again?」

「Well, I guess so. But it’s also because I’m curious about the race, it’s seems like fun.」

　Since Jin was overworked by the boss and seniors of the company in his previous world, even though he was aware of it, it was his disposition and that can’t be easily corrected.

　That was the best answer he could give right now.

　He was somehow sticky from the sea breeze blowing on him all day.

　Jin said to Reiko and went to the communal bathroom with a change of clothes and a towel… But soon immediately came back.

「No way, no way. The water doesn’t flow out, you have to draw it yourself with the bucket on the shelf, you can’t bathe at all. Even worse, because the sea is nearby, the well water is also muddy.」

「I’ll go back to Hourai Island tomorrow and take a bath there.」

　Jin who gave up on taking a bath and shower for the day, thought about various things and plans while lying on the inn’s bed, but he soon fell asleep before he knew it.

　The next day. Jin and Reiko had returned to the Laboratory using the Warp Gate to bring the materials.

　Getting out of the morning bath he had Reiko prepare, Jin immediately began preparing.

　The wing membrane was used for Reiko’s skin as it’s thin and tough. Compared to it, the leather was thick and flexible.

　Reiko casually handed the fish paste over to Peridot who was in charge of the housekeeping. 『Sham』 as it may be, it was still a monster with Dragon in its name. It would normally take at least 10 people to subjugate it.

「Wind attribute? Would that be better than the water attribute?」

「It’s because the golem I have in mind needs speed more than power.」

「I understand」

「Good. Let’s make the swimsuit now then.」

　To Reiko who had a confused expression, Jin,

「So that’s why.」

「My predecessor sure was amazing to have made this knit & weave loom.」

　The preceding Magi Craft Meister, Adrianna Balbora Ceci seemed to have been very womanly and had developed things of the likes of a spinning loom and a knit & weave loom.

「The thread I dyed navy blue is set, and… Okay, activate」

「After this I’ll also dye it white, so could you weave a bit more?」

　Jin decided to leave the rest of the work to Reiko’s two subordinates, he then began putting finishing touches to the swimuit.

「Thank you.」

「Alright, it’s not yet noon so we still have time. Let’s return to the 『Sea Pavilion』 and change.」

　They returned to Port Rock and after changing into their swimsuit at the Sea Pavillion, both of them headed to the beach at the back.

　Jin immediately entered the sea. The seawater temperature was relatively high so he didn’t feel too cold. Reiko then followed after

「Aaa~ it’s really is relaxing.」

「Oh? Could that young lady over there be a doll?」

「Wh-what? … GABO–」

「Otou-sama, are you okay?」

「Ah, as I thought. This is wonderful! There isn’t one in our country. Could it possibly be an Artifact?」

　Jin put himself on guard against this man.

　The man with a slightly exaggerated shrug,

「…… Jin. This is Reiko.」

「Mister Jin and Miss Reiko. Could it be you are also entering the Golem Boat Competition?」

「Yeah. Then does that mean you are too?」

「I am indeed participating. My golem is this.」

「The golem I poured my heart and soul into to make, 『Lorelei』.」

　It had the lower body of a fish, that is to say it was a mermaid model golem.\n
