Chapter 323 Maestro (2/2)
Seeing this unexpectedly different side of Reinhart, Jin was having fun too.
The food, too, although not anything rare, was made really well and was possibly the best they had since entering Shouro empire.
At the time, maybe Reinhart said something to Belche, which made her ask Jin,
“Jin-sama, could you introduce me to your automata?”
“Eh? Ah, yes… Reiko, come here.”
Jin called Reiko, who was standing behind and introduced her,
“She is Reiko, my daughter.”
Reiko slightly bowed and said,
“I am Reiko.”
Seeing that, Belche wore a beam on her face and,
“Fuwah, so cute! I have never seen an automata as wonderful as Rayko-chan! No wonder Reinhart-sama invited her, as well.”
“He has always liked cute stuff, after all.”
Matheus followed.
Belche continued,
“I have also brought mine along… Neon! Come along!”
And called her automata’s name.
“Yes, miss.”
An automata with the appearance of a ten year old girl came along. She also had wavy, blonde hair like Belche and green eyes. Or rather, she looked pretty much like Belche.
She was wearing a navy blue maid cloth.
“This girl is my automata, Neon. Neon, introduce yourself to everyone.”
“Yes… Everyone, I am called Neon. Nice to meet you.”
Her way of talking was bit unclear but she had very human-like movements. It must be the work of quite a skilled magi engineer, Jin thought.
“Good job, Neon. Jin-sama, this automata is the work of the best magi engineer of Shouro empire, Gebalt Ackerman.”
Even though she said that, Jin just thought ‘And who is that?’. And so, he couldn’t reply anything other than ‘I see’.
Grasping the situation, Reinhart followed up by saying,
“Jin, Mr. Gebalt is my master’s senior apprentice. We were both the best pupils of the previous magi engineer maestro, Siegmundt Glynbarth-shi.
“Magi engineer maestro?”
“Ah, you don’t know about it, do you, Jin? Magi engineer maestro is the title given to the best magi engineer in the empire.”
Jin was drawn in by Reinhart’s explanation.
“Hmmm, I would like to meet him.”
“Yep, I thought you’d say that. It’s fine, I will try to do something.”
Reinhart promised. Seeing that Belche said,
“Reinhart-sama seems to pay attention to Jin-sama’s needs. I am a bit jealous.”
Jin was a bit startled to hear this but as it didn’t seem to have any deep meaning, Belche soon changed the topic.
“Is Rayko-chan good at doing something particular? Neon is good at singing and dancing. Let me show you… Neon!”Translations by AsianHobbyist Website.
“Yes, miss.”
Neon took a few steps back and started preparing. She has the intelligence of knowing what to do just from the context of the conversation.
“It’s not so good but–”
Saying that, Neon slowly started to dance. It was a slow style dance like the ones in Southeast Asia, Jin thought.
She might not be able to move too fast due to the structure of her body too.
Before long. She also started to sing while dancing. Even Jin couldn’t understand the lyrics. There was probably a melody in her head to which she was trying to sing along impromptu.
But even then, it was not at all inferior to Ceres’ dance in that golem party and the singing was as good as Zuingel there.
“Thank you.”
After finishing her dance, she bowed and stood behind Belche.
“Jin-sama, I would be really happy if your Rayko-chan could show us something as well.”
Belche requested with sparkling eyes, to which Jin couldn’t refuse and called out Reiko.
“Reiko, can you show us something?”
“Yes, father, leave it to me.”
Reiko easily accepted and walked to the area where Neon had danced.
Author note:
At last, Reinhart’s fiancee makes her entrance.
Lolic… no, nothing.
What might Reiko show them?
Bend an adamantite pole.Instantly kill 20 of Reinhart’s subordinates.Make origami with a 5 mm thick iron plate.Something else
