Chapter 432

13 Stronghold Enhancement Arc

13-08 Visiting The Marquess

After enjoying the hot cake, Jin and his friends had a little more time to spare before they had to go back, so they went back to finish their tasks at hand .

Elsa went to check out Lisa who was working with the golem maids .

Reinhardt continued monitoring Noir’s operation .

Berthie and Mine were being polite and helped cleaned the dishes .

Jin went back to the underground hall and asked Laojun regarding his progress .

“My Lord, I’ll give you an interim report on Marcus . ”

“All right . I’m listening . ”

“Yes . My Lord’s presumption was correct after all . I learned a lot more from Transinfo level 8 . ”

Even if his memory was erased, there seemed to be some remnants remaining . It would be more accurate to say that his memory could not be recalled, instead of being erased .

It was comparable to protected sectors of FAT (File Allocation Table) of a personal computer so they could not be read or deleted .

Although it seemed to disappear at first glance, it was still there .

“I see! So what did you find out?”

“Yes . … There was an important finding . First of all, there is no doubt that Marcus was manipulated by a demon . ”

That was as expected . So my presumption was confirmed .

“The demon’s name was Marcosias . Marcus was targeted most likely because of the similarity in their names . ”

It seemed Marcus was very unlucky to have been chosen just because of that .

“Here’s the important part . First of all, Marcosias, or Marcus, was investigating human technology, ecology, and society . ”

Elsa also mentioned something similar . Their purpose was to measure human’s ability . That was probably his mission .

“He seemed to do various things to see the reactions of human beings . Georg Randol’s inferiority complex toward his brother was used to cast magic similar to Seduce to manipulate his actions .

According to Laojun’s a.n.a.lysis and reasoning, the cast magic seemed to have awakened and encouraged his deepest desires .

“I see, that explains his abnormal behavior, right?”

“That’s correct . Poisoning the Marquess was completely arbitrary . I think this a.n.a.lysis is accurate . ”

That was good news . That fact would change the situation considerably . Elsa would be happy to hear that, too .

“Anything else?”

“Yes . It seems that the Seduce cast on Mine was part of it as well .

Laojun ended his interim report with such a conclusion .

This would be our chance to learn about Marcosias’ abilities and demon skills .

“All right . Please continue . ”

Jin felt relieved . The poisoning of the Marquess was not directed by Elsa’s father, the former Viscount Georg Randol .

Thinking more thoroughly, the timing of poisoning was pretty bad . It would have been more advantageous for Elsa to marry and poison him after their baby was born .

Jin felt a little relieve since he and Elsa would not need to visit the Marquess with a guilty feeling .

Two hours later, Jin and his friends returned to Count Randol’s residence .

June 26th, after dawn . Jin and his friends were planning to head to Marquess Theodoric, but some unexpected things happened .

“Jin!”

“It’s been three days since I last saw you!”

The first was the unexpected arrival of Prince Ernest and Princess Lieschen at Earl Randol, Reinhardt’s parents’ home .

The other unexpected thing was … .

“’Lord Jin Nidou, Egelia Kingdom would like to grant you the t.i.tle of Magi Craft Meister together with your honorary knighthood . ’”

“’Lord Jin Nidou, Klein Kingdom would like to grant you the t.i.tle of Magi Craft Meister as well, together with your honorary knighthood . ’”

The prince and princess read the doc.u.ment aloud .

Egelia and Klein Kingdoms had granted Jin the t.i.tle of Magi Craft Meister .

“Isn’t the Manaphone convenient? The day before yesterday, I reported everything regarding the technology expo to my father . Yesterday morning, I was contacted to grant you the t.i.tle of Magi Craft Meister . ”

“Same here . My father made a swift decision . He probably thought he would fall behind other countries in granting you the t.i.tle . ”

After announcing the official notice, the Prince and Princess returned to their casual tones and laughed openly .

“Congratulations to Jin! You’re now a Magi Craft Meister who is fully recognized by three countries!”

Reinhardt was so happy as if he was the one receiving the recognition .

“Brother Jin, congratulations . ”

“Congratulations, Lord Jin . ”

“Lord Jin, I congratulate you from the bottom of my heart . ”

“Congratulations, Father!”

Elsa, Mine, and Berthie were also pleased that Jin was named Magi Craft Meister by two other countries . Reiko expressed extreme joy for the good news . She looked so happy that she was about to break into a dance any moment now .

“Say, Jin, what’s Magi Craft Meister?”

Even though Princess Lieschen announced the t.i.tle, she did not seem to know what Magi Craft Meister was .

“Lies, Magi Craft Meister was originally called a legendary Magi Craftsman a long time ago . ”

As expected, Prince Ernest answered her before Jin did .

“I see . In other words, Jin is the second generation, right?”

“That would be accurate . Maybe messengers from Celuroa, Franz, and Elias Kingdoms would come soon as well . ”

Disregarding Jin, the Prince and Princess had a conversation by themselves . With a warm expression, Jin smiled listening to their conversation .

Although he was recognized as a Magi Craft Meister, which was the pinnacle of a Magi Craftsman, Jin knew that was not the only perk . Only Jin knew about it, to be exact .

It was the “right of access to the Magi Engineering Library” .
