Chapter 333
Magi Craft Meister 333
11-35 Nidou Castle
Jin let go of his baggage, placed some pens, ink, and parchment for memos in his office, and helped Butler B and C organize some books into the empty shelves .
The books were supposed to be bland, and so were of simple Magi Craft introduction material with pictures of plants inside . Of course, these were all made by Laojun .
Also, he would also place the Honorary Magi Craftsman half coat and badge from the Egelia Kingdom here as well .
The Honorary Membership badge from the Shouro Empire’s Magi Engineer Guild was of course, inside the carriage .
As the office floor was covered in wood, Jin had a personal set of slippers . Ignoring the fact that they were made from the skin of a monster, they were quite ordinary slippers .
“Good, that’s about right then . ”
Jin saw that everything was in order, and decided that he should make it clear who was in charge of management .
First, he ordered that Butler B and C would have everything above the third floor, the five golem maids would be in charge of the underground .
He had been told that it was too much to have poor Barou and Belle clean and tidy the third floor and up and also the underground .
He would only ask Belle to clean the office on the third floor when they had to entertain guests, but it was decided that the butlers would handle it otherwise .
Mine was parttime, and Barou and Belle were in charge of instructing, and so they would be given a little more freedom, which would allow them to move in and out of the third floor when necessary .
Once this was done, Jin took Reiko with him and headed for the village chief’s house .
“Ah, older brother . Welcome back . ”
Hannah had just come outside after finishing lunch when she saw Jin .
“I’m back, Hannah . ”
“Um, that girl from the tribe has come here . ”
“Yeah, that’s right . That’s why I am going to the chief’s house now . ”
Jin said, and so Hannah sent him off warmly .
The chief’s house was close to the center of the village .
The time was around 1 pm, everyone should be finished with lunch now . Belle just happened to be in the garden when she saw Jin .
“Oh, Master Jin . Welcome back!”
Hearing this, Barou’s face appeared from the window of the chief’s house and quickly disappeared again .
Then the door opened, and out came Lishia .
“Jin!”
Lishia ran to him at full speed and grabbed Jin’s hand .
“It’s been so long! I was worried! But it’s good to see that you are well! What happened while you were away!?”
Her questions came very rapidly, and so Jin was at a loss of how to reply . He fell silent .
Seeing him like that, Lishia turned bright red . She let go of Jin’s hand and jumped back .
“S-sorry about that, Master Jin . …I am a new noble of the Cline Kingdom, Lishia Fahlheit . I was sent here as an ambassador to the Kaina village . It is a pleasure to meet you . ”
She said this and bowed very deeply . Jin was even more uncomfortable .
“Li-Lishia, please stop that . You said it yourself before, let us talk together like we always have . ”
As Jin said this, Lishia raised her head and stood up .
“…Are you sure?”
“That’s what I said . ”
Jin pressed, and Lishia finally relaxed and smiled .
“Oh, thank goodness . I am glad that you haven’t changed . ”
“I won’t change . I am what I am . ”
Jin answered . Then he noticed that there was a young man who did not look familiar standing near the doorway of the chief’s house . He was glaring at Jin .
“Umm, Lishia . Who is that?”
Lishia turned around to see .
“Oh, he is Pascaud Rush . Of the fourth knight’s division . He came with me as a guard . ”
She introduced him .
Jin and Lishia walked over to the door where he was standing . Pascaud was no longer glaring at him now, and so Jin decided to forget about it .
“I am Jin Nidou . An Honorary Magi Craftsman of the Egelia Kingdom . I have been leased this Kaina village . ”
He said to Pascaud . Pascaud too introduced himself in the same way that Lishia had done .
“If you are already finished eating, I would like you to come to my castle . …Ah, but first, I would like a word with the chief . ”
Jin said, and then open the door and entered in order to speak with Gheebeck .
“…So that is Jin Nidou . ”
Pascaud muttered in a somewhat resentful tone .
“Yes . Hehe . I am glad that he has not changed . ”
Lishia answered happily .
“Why would he abandon the ambassador and go talk?”

“It is fine . I wish to continue on as friends with Jin in any case . ”
Lishia said and Pascaud furrowed his eyebrows .
“Is that the direction you will take as an ambassador?”
“Umm, I don’t know . It is without a doubt, my way of thinking . But if you ask about being an ambassador…”
Pascaud was a little taken aback by how cute she looked as she tilted her head in thought, but he quickly controlled himself .
“In, in any case, I believe that you should protest to any actions that slight our kingdom . ”
“But I do not think that that was Jin’s intention? I just think he wanted to get some business out of the way . ”
Lishia was formerly of the common class, and so she had no concerns in particular about Jin’s actions . And she knew that she was right .
However, Pascaud was not convinced . He continued to grumble .
Inside the house, Jin talked with the chief, and it was decided that tonight, they would have a party where the entire village would gather together .
Things like this could be decided quickly as it was a small village .
“So, how many are there in total?”
“There are 29 houses . Excluding you, there should be 102 people . Now that Mine, Elsa, Barou, and Belle are here . ”
“I understand . ”
100 cushions had been prepared for the great hall in his castle . It looked like it would not be enough, though, and so Jin realized he would have to have more made in a hurry .
“Well, then . Please tell the others for me . ”
“Yes, I will do so . Is it alright if we gather at 5?”
“Yes . ”
Jin answered, and he simultaneously thought that he should build a clock tower eventually .
“Barou and Belle, please come back to the castle once you are finished here . ”
“Understood . ”
After this conversation, Jin left the chief’s house . Of course, it was Lishia and Pascaud who were waiting for him .
“Oh, Jin . Are you finished talking?”
Lishia asked Jin .
“Ah, Lishia . So you were waiting here for me? I am so sorry I didn’t realize it . ”
Jin realized that he had made them stand and wait, and he apologized . Then he invited them to the castle .
“It has only just been completed . Lishia, you will be the first guest who has been invited to it . ”
Lishia heard this and then asked Jin something that had been on her mind .
“Um, uh, Jin . When exactly did you build this castle?”
“It was of course after I was leased this land . ”
“…Huh?”
Lishia froze for a second . However, she quickly remembered that it was Jin that she was talking to, and so she returned to herself .
“Is, is that so . So you are not only great with Magi Craft but construction as well . ”
“Yes, well, it was made by the golems that I created . ”
Hearing this, Lishia was somewhat satisfied with the answer . The golems had a strength that far surpassed humans, and so they would probably be able to build things at several times the speed .
However, Pascaud did not feel the same .
“…That’s impossible…How could a building on this scale be finished within a few days…that is so utterly ridiculous…”
He muttered in annoyance . He had experience with repairing the castle walls of the fortress city Tetrada, and so he had more knowledge of construction and materials than Lishia .
And yet the castle now loomed in front of the three .
“Reiko, please tell the butlers and maids to come out and greet us . ”
Jin gave Reiko the order . Reiko nodded .
“Jin, what do you mean by butlers and maids?”
Lishia asked out of curiosity . Jin laughed and only told her that she would know soon enough .

And just as he said, there were seven golems lined up in front of the castle entrance .
Jin walked forward a few steps and then turned around .
“Ambassador Lishia, Pascaud . Welcome to Kaina village, and Nidou castle . ”
He greeted them with a few simple words .
And when he was finished, the seven golems all bowed their heads in unison .
While they were not wearing clothes, Butler B and C were a matte silver, the five golem maids were red, purple, green, yellow and blue respectively .
Seeing their incredible designs in front of them, Lishia and Pascaud became unsurprisingly speechless .
