"How do you mean, 'make you better than you are now'?"
It seems to Elsa that he has been improved in almost every conceivable way.
"That's right. If anything else can be done, it would be to increase the clock speed and enhance the peripherals.
Jin explains with an analogy of a personal computer. However, Jin is not that familiar with personal computers.
Clocking up was a common practice during the development of personal computers.
In digital processing, one measure of performance was the number of operations a central processing unit (CPU) could perform in one second.
Newer models were all claiming to have a higher clock speed.
The rest was an increase in the capacity of the internal hard disk and an upgrade of the OS.
These are the only performance improvements of personal computers that Hitoshi knows of.
In magical engineering, the attribute of the control core determines the clock frequency.
Increasing it means that more projects can be considered per unit of time.
Jin used selected magic crystals (magi crystals), but natural ones inevitably contain impurities.
So Jin came up with the idea of applying , , and to the highest quality magi crystals.
Since <> is Jin's original engineering magic, this series of procedures is unprecedented.
Let's start with an experiment to see what kind of results we can expect.
<>"
Jin removes a small amount of impurities from the magi crystal of the light attribute. Then and .
This eliminates defects in the internal crystal structure.
The result is a colorless, transparent magi crystal. The dazzling radiance characteristic of the light attribute is suppressed, and a subdued light is emitted.
"<>...... What is this?"
"Brother Jin, what's wrong?"
Erza asks if something is wrong.
"No, no, I don't know what to tell you. ...... Elsa will know if she checks it out."
"? ......<>......A"
"Right?"
"What is this?"
No matter how much I looked into it, I could not sense any attributes.
"Can we say that ......<> is an attribute for all attributes?"
"Hmm, sure."
"So if we remove the slightest impurity and the attribute disappears, does that mean that the impurity was determining the attribute?"
That's right.
"This sounds like something Saki would be very pleased with."
Jin!
Jin! What a discovery!
I called Saki over, and sure enough, she was jumping up and down with joy.
"Ummm, what exactly is the nature of the impurity that determines its attributes?
If we can find out, we may be able to artificially create magi crystals of each attribute.
"At the moment, we don't know. I mean, it didn't come out when I isolated it."
"Hmm, I see. ......"
Saki ponders.
"So, you mean to say that other magi crystals with other attributes will become attribute-free if they are processed in the same way?"
"Yes. Actually, I tried it. The magic crystal (magi crystal) of the fire attribute became non-attributable."
Impurities ...... or in that case are also unknown, Jin said.
"Well, it's difficult. But it's worth studying. ...... So, what happened when you used <> in the control core?"
"Oh, yes, yes. I tried to replace Edgar's control core to test it out.
"What? Why Edgar?
"No, because Erza insisted.
Elsa felt that Edgar, the first automata she had created, had not been maintained recently.
Edgar has been working behind the scenes, or rather, doing a lot of behind-the-scenes work. One of the reasons is that his Golem automata are not as good as the Golem automata that Jin made.
So, at the same time that Jin was trying to improve the old man, Erza thought of improving Edgar's performance.
"Well, don't be surprised, his thought-processing speed has increased by 1.5 times!
"That's great!
"That's not all. <
That's a great discovery!
"Yeah, I think the presence and type of impurities and the crystal structure are the factors that determine the magic frequency. And ......"
Simply speeding up the process may result in a loss of ability due to the inability to keep up with the exchange of information, but this <> Magi Crystal did not seem to have such a drawback.

Jin imagined that it was the effect of the elimination of unnecessary resistance.
"Hmmm, that's a possible theory. I'd like to study it.
"I'll leave that to you."
"Well, I'm sure Jin is busy right now. I'm in charge.
Thus, the research on the magi crystal of <> was entrusted to Saki, and Jin and Erza were to strengthen the old man and Edgar, respectively.
Saki was to be in charge of the study of the Magi Crystal.
"What do you think, old man?
"Not 10-20%...1.5 times is quite a lot..."
<
Jin then exchanged Reiko's control core and magi reactor.
The other golems and automata were to be replaced one by one.
How are you doing, Reiko?
"Yes, it's going great. Thank you very much.
The island of Horai is steadily being strengthened.
* * * *
Meanwhile, Elsa and Edgar.
"...... is ready."
Although she is not as fast as Jin, Elsa's technique is also very close to Jin's.
Everything from the skeleton to the muscles and skin has been reviewed, and she has achieved the same level of performance as the fifth row (Quinta).
"Thank you, Miss Elsa.
Thank you, Edgar.
"Yes, sir."
Erza, thank you.
"And you, brother Jin."
After exchanging these words, Jin half-heartedly rubbed Erza's shoulder.
"Brother Jin?"
"...... hmm, Erza's shoulders don't get stiff much, do they?"
Jin, who had occasionally massaged the director's shoulders and back when he was at the facility, was surprised to see that Elsa's shoulders were not stiff.
Then he remembered that <>.
"But that's just because she doesn't realize it. ...... Erza must be young, yes, I'm sure she is."
"Brother Jin?"
"...... is nothing."
"Yeah?"
And so October 8th passed.
In the evening, Jin took a short nap and prepared for the mission at night.
