It is reasonable to assume that the controlling magical brain is inside where the free magical element (ether) would have been transferred.
"Yeah. ...... what?"
The old man immediately found a magic brain that looked like it and projected it on the screen.
But when Jin looked at it, he could not hide his discomfort.
"What is this?"
The had a strange shape.
The body, or should I say the main body, was roughly spherical in shape. It was supported by a sturdy-looking structure.
However, Jin had the impression that there were some foreign objects attached to it.
"It looks like a pimple. ......"
There are five hemispherical bumps attached to the surface of the sphere.
The irregularity of the spots makes them seem even more foreign.
"If they're attached to each other regularly, it seems to me they're appendages. ......"
The color, or rather the appearance, is also very different.
The original spheres are a subdued silver-gray, but the attached hemispheres are black.
"I wouldn't say it's a bad combination, but ......"
The surface condition of the spheres may be the most disconcerting factor rather than the color.
The surface of the silver-gray sphere is smooth and not uneven, but the black hemisphere to which it is attached has several smaller hemispheres protruding from it, making it grotesque, depending on one's point of view.
The old man also described the black hemispheres as such.
"But it's not so clear that we don't know the purpose of the device," Jin thinks.
Jin thinks.
"I guess we should ask about it. ......"
"Yes, what is it? Is something wrong?"
What?
What?
Time goes back to the day before.
The fifth column (Quinta) in charge of Alban, the capital of the Kingdom of Klein, Regulus 2, a.k.a. Leiber.
He found a suspicious person.
For several days now, he has been relentlessly asking vagrants in bars and back alleys, and sometimes even suspected criminals, about the .
(If you are an intelligence agent, you should have done better.)
(If he is an intelligence agent, he should have done better.) The behavior of the person was so blatant that Leiber thought, "Why is he doing this?
(If he was an intelligence officer, he could have done better.) He did not ask around openly, but it was easy to spot him.
He reported this to the old man and was trying to find out who this person was, but he had no clue.
We called in Spica7 a.k.a. Bago, who was also in charge of Alban, and Deneb2 a.k.a. Fawumi, who was in charge of Charles Town, to assist us.
In the evening, when Fawumi arrived in Charles Town, the three began to take action.
"......That's him."
The target was soon found.
They had heard rumors about while buying drinks at a local tavern.
"How do I lure him out?"
Bago asks.
"The old man tells me that if he's related to , he's a complete amateur at roughing it. Let's start by baiting him."
How?
"Well, we just have to let him know we have information he wants, and he'll come to us."
