Volume 3 - Chapter 8 – Magi Jet Engine (2/2)

With an impish smile, Jin said,

「We’ll see」

Theng, bringing some Light Silver from the warehouse, he began to make something.

As expected of Jin, although it took some time to make something for the first time, it was completed soon.

「Done」

It was a cylindrical object 30cm long, 10cm in diameter.

「Father, this is?」

Then Jin opened the lid and put a tiny Magi Stone in the upper part of the cylinder, after that, he pushed it to the middle and closed the lid.And,

「Reiko, hold it firmly but be careful not to crush the cylinder.」

「? Okay.」

With that, Reiko held the tube,

「Start」

Jin started it. At that moment, wind started blowing from the cylinder in Reiko’s hand,it pushed against Reiko with considerable force.

「Father, this is?」

「Oh, its a big success. It is a Magi Jet Engine.」

Jin’s enginering naming was relatively decent.

「As it is, it will keep going until the Magi Stone runs out.」

It kept working for another 20 minutes.

「Un un, it’s as I thought」

「What does it mean? Father」

Reiko asked as Jin nodded.

「Un、in the magic Wind、the part of the magic that prevents recoil that I talked about a little while ago consumed more than half the magic power.」

「In other words, if you stop the magic that prevents recoil, it would require much less magic.」

Jin happily nodded,

「Yes, yes, that’s right. With this, the prospect of flying in the sky is in sight, it can also be used to make a high speed boat.」

With Jin’s thoughts, the jet plane would probably come before the propeller plane.

「Well、it’s about time. Let’s return to Port Rock for the time being.」

*   *   *

Coming out from the cave, Jin headed for Port Rock, as he neared he thought he smelt something burning.

「Father! It’s a fire!」

Almost at the same time, Reiko pointed out. Black smoke was coming out from the harbour area.

「Isn’t that from the direction of the dry dock?」

With a bad feeling, Jin began to run. Reiko followed.

「Ah, the dock!」

It could be seen from a distance. The source of the fire was the dock owned by Marcia. A deep red flame could be seen inside, with smoke erupting, it was in a state where you couldn’t see anything.

「Reiko, can you extinguish it?」

Immediately after Jin said that, the dock was flooded with seawater. Raising a lot of white steam, the fire immediately went out with the large amount of seawater.

「That was?」

「It was Water Storm.」

「Reinhardt,」

The person who used the magic was the Magi Engineer from the Shioro Empire they had met yesterday, Reinhardt.
