Chapter 298
Chapter 298 Jin, departs
Going back in time a little .
After being told that he could travel if he wants, Jin went back to Hourai island in great joy and started preparations for his trip .
“Now then, let’s get the carriage ready first . ”
The carriage he had built back in Egelia kingdom still remained, but after assigning the equipped warp gate for other uses, it would be a bit of a bother to put it back .
Laojun had been putting together a carriage of similar type for this occasion . Jin thought he would make a new model from scratch .
He made the outward appearance similar to the previous one .
Of course, he also equipped the warp gate .
With four-wheeled, self-support suspension system, ‘Active suspension’ .
Fully furnished air-conditioning .
Floodlight projector .
And, of course, the horse would be a golem horse .
This was what would usually be equipped but from this point on, Jin did the unthinkable .
“I guess I will make it so that it can run even without a horse . ”
In other words, he planned on equipping it with a golem engine so that it would be capable of running on its own .
“I can’t really pack in a big engine which stands out so I guess I will have to go with the least possible one I can . ”
He isn’t aware that his ‘least’ isn’t what is considered to be the general ‘least’ .
“Father, I have prepared the materials . ”
Reiko brought aluminium 64 . It is much stronger than normal aluminium .
“Alright, let’s start . ”
Not having to worry about anyone watching, Jin exerted his engineering magic as much as he wanted and kept on processing the materials . Reiko was supporting him .
Moreover, Laojun was considerate and called over two Smith golems .
And before one knew it, the carriage was completed .
They used the sea dragon’s leather for the tire . Due to its roughness being similar to the dragon’s scales, its grip power is extraordinary, even above boulders . (In fact, the boulder might break instead . )
“As I thought, we don’t get much speed if the golem engine is small . ”
Jin grumbled as he saw the carriage go through the test run .
The engines are small as they have been equipped to each of the wheels . It looks like nothing but a fat tire but, in fact, golem engines are installed next to it .
And due to this, he couldn’t install anything too big as it would stand out too much . But it is also true that that would decrease the torque . It would be able to reach a speed of about 40 kilometers per hour .
If the golem horse pulled with all its strength, it would go up to a 100 kmph . A normal carriage’s max speed is about 15 kmph .
Even Jin himself didn’t know that his measure of things was quite outrageous .
This golem horse was reusing some of the material used before .
Even still, the aluminium portion is replaced with aluminium 64 and the magical muscle was enhanced, making the output power twice that of the one before .
“It would be nice to be able to ride it alone as well . ”
He equipped the horse with a saddle, a stirrup and a handle so that it could be rode without the carriage as well .
“I guess I should also equip it with a seat so that it feels comfortable riding . Well, when needed, I could always use the warp gate and come back here to sleep anyway . ”
There was no one present there who would retort saying ‘you wouldn’t call that a trip now, would you!?’ .
Either way, super carriage no . 2 was done in about 2 hours .
[My lord, I have a suggestion . ]
“Mm, what is it?”
[I suggest taking a golem with you, one which has the outer appearance of a low-class golem . ]
Hearing Laojun’s suggestion, Jin immediately understood the intention behind it .
“I see . Low-class ‘outer appearance’, eh?”
Put simply, a golem which would take care of his daily needs .
“I guess I could also make it be the driver normally . ”
And so, Jin started making it immediately . All in all, Jin really liked making automatas and golems .
“The basis is fine being the same as butlers . ”
He used 18-12 stainless steel as the raw material . It looked like iron at a glance so it would be easier to fool others’ eyes with this .
He purposely tried making the outer appearance look clumsy . The model was Unifiers’ battle golem . Even still, he didn’t make it clumsy to that point . He also didn’t want others to misunderstand, after all .
Its power was a bit higher than the butlers and its dexterity was close to that of the Smiths . And so, it should be able to handle miscellaneous tasks as well .
“Hmm, I’d better order it to pretend to be sluggish normally . ”
And so, the attendant golem was done .
“Your name will be… ‘Steward’ . ”
“Yes, master . ”
With this, approximately all preparations were complete .
“…I guess I will rest for a bit . Reiko, Laojun, I leave the rest to you . ”
“Yes, father . ”
[Leave it to us . ]
As one would expect, Jin was pretty tired and so left the remaining preparation to Reiko and Laojun and lied down on the floor .
“Alright then, I will be back . ”
Jin went to inform the people of Kaina village about his trip .
“Jin-nii, take care . Give my regards to Rai-nii . ”
“Jin-sama, please take care . ”
“Jin, take care . Come back from time to time, alright?”
