After finishing the repair of Schutzer 01 in the village of Quent, Jin asks Rouzou Chioda a question.
"Can you use ?"
But the answer was no.
I am sorry, but you cannot use it. The first generation could use it, but ......"
I see, Jin thought.
None of the Tomoshide Yoda and the others he had met the other day had been able to use .
It is not surprising if their mentor, the Magi Seeker, is unable to use it.
"You said that you would not accept help, but I would like you to teach me the transcription of <>.
"What?
Jin's offer came as more of a shock to Rouzou and Chioda than they had expected.
"...... would be very much appreciated."
The leader of the group, Chioda Lohzo, got down on his knees.
"Yes, sir."
Jin nodded his head in agreement.

One of the historical feats created by Adriana Barbora Zetsi, the great < Magecraft Meister> of Jin's predecessors, is the <.
This is .
Not only engineering magic, but also < requires a certain level of knowledge.
It is not the case that just anyone can use it by casting spells or chanting.
Chanting is useful, but not essential, for establishing an image of the magic you wish to use.
If the image is accurate, the chanting can be discarded. Or you can just chant in your brain.
The ability to handle >, which is also necessary for a mage. Jin and others call it <>.
< is necessary is to access the world's , which hold what should be called .
The <> are probably in a higher world than ......, since no one has ever confirmed the existence of ......, and there are <> to connect (access) them.
And if all these things are not right, the magic will not work.
If you cannot use <, it means that you lack any or all of them.
"I can use engineering magic, so I should be able to use <> to some extent.
You just don't know how to do it," Jin said.
Just as he had coached Reinhardt and Erza in the past, Jin coached Rouzou Chioda and all the <> ...... including the apprentices, ten of them. He instructed them .......
First, Jin performed a .
This is a method that shows how to do something unconsciously to the target person, i.e., the person being taught, and can be likened to what is called <>.
Next, let them actually perform .
Then, Jin, who is the one who teaches them, can determine if they are talented or not by following the flow of magic power using <> or <>.
And if you have the talent, all you have to do is practice.
After repeating the same thing ......10 times for a number of people, it was found that all of them had <> qualities.
This was good news.
<, we can pass on our knowledge to the next generation.
<> has declined compared to that of the first generation is largely due to the fact that the was not available.
Perhaps the < of <> were able to use <>, but they were not able to teach how to do so.
Jin thought that it was a pity.
However, from now on, they can pass on their knowledge and experience to the next generation.
Jin was happy for that.
* * * *
< had mastered , Jin sets the next task.
"Now, let's copy the control core of <>."
"What? Jin-sama, are you sure?
Luzo Chioda asked Jin in surprise.
"Of course. , is that correct?
"Yes, Jin-sama."
"Yes, Jin-sama. ......Louzo, this is what we need to do."
What do you mean?
The golem that came the other day.
Oh, ......
"They may come back ...... or they will. We need to be able to mass produce Schutzer-type golems to protect ourselves in case they do.
Can we do that?
"Yes, we can. ...... Even without my help, you should be able to defeat such a golem by using <> as an example.
As a matter of fact, <> is about 1.5 times more powerful than the original because Jin had secretly improved it when he repaired it.
However, it is not a kind of magical remodeling, but rather, it is just a matter of correcting the parts that were not well made and the parts where the materials were used incorrectly.
I understand, I'll give it a try.
"If you still insist, I won't give up on ....... We are comrades, so to speak, who have inherited the same technique and heart.
"Thank you very much."
* * * *
< from Jin.
It was a gift that filled a need they had been lacking.
"Jin-sama, how can I thank you ......?"
"No, it is a kind of duty as a Magecraft Meister.
No, it is a kind of duty as a Magecraft Meister himself to pass on his skills, knowledge, and experience to the next generation," Jin said.

On this day, Jin and the others stayed overnight at the base of the .
They said that they rarely have visitors, but they have a building for visitors, and there are two clean and comfortable rooms.
This time, Jin, Goose, and Goh (and Reiko) stayed in one room. This time Jin, Goose, and Goh (and Reiko) stayed in one room, and Elsa, Saki, Rubina, and Merze stayed in one room.
