Magi Craft Meister 389
Towards the Expo
The fun-filled days passed in no time.
The afternoon of June 10, Reinhardt, Berthie and Saki returned home to the Shouro Empire.
“For the time being, I’ll put the warp gate in the barn at Saki’s house.”
Saki nodded enthusiastically at this.
“Yeah, I’d be happy if you did.”
“If it’s there, it’s near my house and few people come by so it’s safe.”
Reinhard nodded.
“Kufu, should I really be happy about you saying people don’t come by often?”
Saki laughed at himself.
“Well, um, it’s a good thing for situations like this at least…”
Jin could only follow up as such.
“Well, anyway, I’m glad I can go to Horai Island anytime as long as I have these glasses.”
The lenses had been replaced with ones made from magic quartz.
Magic quartz had also been used to make Reiko’s eyes. It has a weak light attribute, allowing it’s refractive index to be adjusted through magic.
“With these, I can see perfectly both near and far. I didn’t think this day would come at all. ”
In other words, they were bifocal glasses.
Saki was myopic, so when she looked far away, her glasses needed higher power, and when she looked at her hand, lower power.
Saki was weak magically, but even she could manage to adjust the lenses, so she got used to them quickly and now couldn’t live without them.

“Eh!?”
Returning home, Reinhardt was surprised to hear that this year’s Technology Expo would take place in Koju, a town on the other side of Banne.
He had thought it would be held in the capital city of Roissart.
“I see. So you didn’t know because you were out of the country?”
Reinhardt’s father, Wolfgang, said with a surprised look.
“To be honest, I thought you would’ve heard about it when you were traveling in Roissart……
Ah well. You’re going to participate, of course? ”
“Yes. Jin and Saki will too. ”
Wolfgang laughed and nodded.
“All right. I’ll sign them up. I’m looking forward to seeing what Jin will do. ”
“Oh, and Jin is going to bring one assistant, so please register her too.”
“Assistant?”
“Assistant.”
Wolfgang did not inquire further and Reinhard did not elaborate.
“So, he’ll secure spots for Jin, Elsa, and Saki.”
Jin heard the story in Reinhard’s room.
“I see, thank you.”
“So, what are you going to do for the expo Jin?”
Reinhard asked while drinking tea brewed by Berthie.
“I’m looking forward to seeing it”
Jin laughed mischievously and responded.
“Reinhardt will be displaying his ship, right?”
“Yeah, I’m going to get out the paddle steamer. Also, it’d be good if I made a special golem for it. ”
Reinhardt seemed to have planned to exhibit the paddle steamer he built on Horai Island for a while now.
That’s why he had made it from commonly available materials.
The paddle steamer was too large, so Jin had promised to transport it stealthily later
“10 days left. I’ll get to work on the golem as much as I can without upsetting Berthie’
“Well then, if something happens, you can always rely on Horai Island.”
Finishing his tea, Jin stood up.
“Jin, are you going already?”
“Yeah. I also want to make something for the exhibition, and I feel bad getting in the way of the newlyweds. ”
“I, I see. So, when are you coming by next? ”
