An assistant automaton <>, which Golbert Malkitas seems to have created just for his own comfort.
There was a discussion on the island of Horai over how to deal with it.
"As far as I'm concerned, I can't bear to destroy an automaton of that caliber.
Jin expressed his true feelings.
After all, the old man has deemed to be dangerous and has recommended that it be shut down.
"I agree with the old man. But ...... I also have a little bit of sympathy for <>."
This is Reiko.
Jin understood how Reiko felt.
Reiko has been searching for a successor for 1000 years, following the wishes of the first generation.
But the old lord also waited for more than 300 years after the death of the living Jin until the present Jin appeared.
"Hmmm ...... what should I do ......"
Jin is troubled.
At this point, Reinhardt made a suggestion.
"Hey, it would be good if we could get <> to cooperate with Jin, right?"
"That's what I was thinking. ......"
"Then, you know, why don't Jin make bodies for both of them and replace the <> on them?"
In that case, Jin would be the <> and the automata would basically be unable to oppose him.
This is because the basic magic pattern of the main devices such as <> and <><> belongs to the creator.
It is said that this is because they feel sympathy for the maker due to resonance or resonance-like effect.
"Certainly ...... that would eliminate the threat."
and would be collaborators.
Even if they are not collaborators, it would be a good thing if they would listen to us to some extent.
"I think it's a good idea. It's just a question of how to implement it."
< or will listen to him and let him replace the .
"Well, it's certainly ...... a good idea."
Reinhardt is disappointed. But the old man was different.
<
"Is it?"
to agree to the changeover, I think we can get him to agree to it.
And if succeeds, the old man said, there will be no problem to replace 's .
"I hope it works."
< becomes a collaborator of the master (My Lord), then there will be no danger for .
The old man said, "I would go to any lengths for the sake of Jin.
"That's a good idea. I have one other concern."
Jin basically agreed, but expressed one last concern.
"What is it, Jin?"
Reinhardt asked.
"Well, Markitas, you see, was possessed by a <>, wasn't he? So, does the stored control core of the Markitas contain that person or not? If so, what would be the effect?
"I see, so that's what Jin is worried about."
<
However, it would not make much sense if the transcribed personality of Markitas was already affected, the old man concluded.
"Why don't you transfer <> and <> into <> bodies?"
"What?"
"In other words, into a body that can't do anything more than a normal human being."
No magic, no power, literally human-like. Not more than human, but human.
"Make it so it can't even be tuned. ...... Jin can do that, right?"
............Yes, he can."
After thinking for a moment, Jin replied.
"And then you can track him and stop him if something happens, so you don't have to worry about him in case something goes wrong.
"I see. ......"
That's a pretty good idea, Jin admitted.
"That way, even if they turn on us, we'll be practically harmless."
It was a good idea, the old man agreed.
"The problem is ......."
Jin starts to speak slowly.
"How can we make an automata with the specifications of an ordinary person? ......
"...... Oh, yeah. Yes, for sure."
Reinhardt agreed.
"What? Isn't it easy to make something that doesn't perform well?"
But Saki still didn't seem to understand.
Jin explained to Saki. After all, Saki's cooperation is indispensable for this.
"......Now, let's start with the skeleton. Even a common bronze skeleton can be stronger than a human skeleton. We could make it thinner, hollower and thinner, but that would make it too light.
"Oh, I see."
"It is the same with muscles. That's why it's important to select the right material.
"I see. I understand. Yes, I'll help you.
I'll help you!
And the only thing that remains is the design.
<
"I think Markitas is a ......, old man, can you do a montage of him in his youth?"
"Okay. Then I'll ask him to model his face in his thirties or so.
.
Since we have some physical data on the late Markitas, we asked him to compile the physique data based on the data.
"Should <> be almost the same as it is now?"
Jin thought that he might get complaints if he changed it without permission.
<
"That's right."
"I see, it's like we have the same body."
<
"Yes, so he won't complain about the appearance.
More than that, he would be happy to approve the replacement of the <>.
