Magi Craft Meister

"The power, Lord Jin, is well aware of this."

Jen nodded when he saw the drawings Christoph had expanded. I do know him well.

"Wind Magic Propeller (Wind Thruster)"

Unlike the Magic Spray Propulsion Engine (Magijet Engine), wind speed is increased and propulsion is obtained by reducing the diameter of the vent compared to the air intake port in order to obtain propulsion using wind magic without recoil.

"That's right. It was originally used as a propulsion engine for hot air balloons, so let's use it on ships."

He also thought about changing it to water magic and using it in the water, but due to the thin diameter of the injection side, it would be easy to clog aquatic plants and debris, so he decides to generate propulsion in the air as it is, Christoph explained.

Like Jen, I didn't seem to get the idea of not inhaling solids in the junction.

But I don't think Jen has a problem with this either. Because there are types of ships propelled by propellers to run both on modern Earth and in places high in aquatic plants and algae.

"Let's use three to four wind thrusters."

"I see, that's good"

Jen, the developer, nodded, so Christoph broke his face.

"… so I would like you to proceed with the consideration of the hull on the assumption that this wind magic thruster (wind thruster) will be used for the thrusters"

"If that happens, the mounting position will be a problem. between the two hulls of a double-torso ship."

Rodrigo speaks at once.

"Uhm, not bad"

"... I think I'd prefer a little higher. Because I think the ease of maintenance and changing the direction of the wind magic thruster can also change the direction of travel."

"I see."

It was an idea that could cover the drawbacks of a two-torso ship inferior to maneuverability.

"No, then there's a suction port coming up on the deck, so what if the occupant sucks in?

Now I have an opinion pointing out the dangers.

"Then why don't we just put it on the net before the suction mouth?

"No, no, no, no, no, no. If you generate propulsion at too high a position, the ship's behavior can be unstable, right?

Thus, the debate was incandescent from that moment on.

Jen, who is attending the meeting from a step, no, half-step away, was comfortable (relaxed) with this atmosphere.

But.

"That's why I'm telling you to figure out a way to do it if you want to be safe!

"No, that way of thinking would lose propulsion," I'm saying.

"You just have to figure it out!

"Do what you don't have to do, call that futile!

"What's in vain? You're the engineer, aren't you?

It's heating up gradually. Two people, mainly Claire and Zeneros.

Claire, on the other hand, was red-haired, and the atmosphere was somewhat like that of Beana, etc., and Jen thought as she watched the two men argue.

"... let's just get that discussion over with"

Christophe pushes half-force to stop an exchange that is likely to last forever if left alone.

"I think we should ask Lord Jin, the inventor of the Wind Magic Thruster."

To the words, the attendees turned to Jen at the same time, and Jen was slightly pressured. but if it's a technical story, it's Jen's mound.

"From the point of view of efficiency, I think the flow path, the wind passage, should be as straight as possible"

Zeneros looked like he had won when he heard about it, and that seems to hinder Claire's eclampsia again.

"Ugg..."

Regrettably clenching his little fist, Claire stared alternately at Jen and Zenellos' faces, but said nothing more and sat back in her seat.

"But I think it's a good idea to branch the flow path only when you change direction."

To Jen's supplement, now Claire gives a happy look.

"Then this wind magic propeller (wind thruster), is it? I think we should put this under the deck that connects the two hulls."

Now Rodrigo opens his mouth.

"No, then again, a double-torso ship is not suitable for this application."

I heard objections. It was the shipbuilder (Shiplight) of Simos town, Couvert, who said it.

"Because for this, strength is required. This would then disadvantage one of the planned uses, in the sense of 'transport'. The weight gain on the hull will continue to lead to a drop in the load."

"I see..."

Rodrigo seemed to have the weight to honestly listen to others.

After many more opinions flew, the silence came with us in mind, at that time.

"Well, I've had a lot of opinions since the first day, as long as I'm happy. Let's have lunch just in time."

Christoph said, punching one hand.

Lunch was in front of the hotel just around the corner.

An appearance is delivered to the conversation room provided separately from the conference room.

Looks like a lakeside, river fish-centric fixing meal. Of course, I don't have to worry about parasites because I'm adding heat...... or salt-baked.

Neither Jen, Elsa, nor Reinhardt had any complaints about its flavor.

"... No, you're surprised. It's been incandescent since then."

Said Reinhardt over a cup of tea after dinner. Jen nods too.

"Oh. But that's funny. It helps a lot to be involved in these developments."

"... Even Brother Jin thinks that?

Elsa with a strange face.

"Oh. Well. Different thoughts of human beings point me out that sometimes I can't think of anything. And often it's something I'm missing."

"So, as for Jin, what do you think about the double-torso ship?

"Yeah, that's it"

Here Jen whispers.

"... In the world I was in, I remember not many large double-torso ships. I don't know because there are pros and cons."

Having heard that, Reinhardt decided to answer in his position as an exchanger rather than as a technician.

"Sure, I'd ask you to avoid everything being a new axis, considering it's the side that gives you the budget."

"Brother Rai, what do you mean by that?

Elsa asked a question that could not measure its meaning.

"Yeah, well... construction and operational performance, you know? Anyway, you can't just pour in taxes from the people and make things that don't have a track record."

In reality, too, a cautious approach has been adopted whereby instead of suddenly doing something that has never been done before, we are additionally alpha to our previous achievements.

"... somehow, I know"

"Right? After I poured a lot of money into it and tested it scattered, 'I didn't get much use out of it' wouldn't allow it."

Elsa looked at Jen.

"... in that sense, Brother Jin, against the rules"

"Ha, that's tough. But I think you're right. Reinhardt, like me, is an idiot, but unlike me, he has those political eyes."

Knock it off, laughing Elsa.

"So, Brother Jin, Brother Rai, they both disagree with the double-torso ship?

"Right. Unfortunately."

They both answered with a different tone.

"... well, unfortunately"

If Jen turned to the voice from behind, Rodrigo stood with a cup of tea in his hand.

"Oh, Mr. Rodrigo. I'm not denying anything about a double-torso ship. Just..."

But with a bitter smile, Rodrigo blocked Jen's words.

"No, Lord Jin, I don't have anything to complain about. What you say makes sense, and what Lord Reinhardt says makes sense."

Rodrigo doesn't seem to be a solo engineer by any chance, he's probably in his mid-forties.

"I've never built a big ship like this one before. I am now aware that Lord Jin said that the waves will change the force applied to all parts of the hull. Hats off."

"... oh, that sounds like an interesting story"

Couvert was also added there.

"So what are the conditions you need to design a large ship?

Having drank the cup of tea in his hand, Couvert looked in turn at Jen's face before raising the issue.

"Stability, restorability, strength, habitability, athleticism, conservatism, fuel consumption... that's a lot"

This is Jen. Hearing the words, Couvert turned his eyes round.

"Ha ha...! That's Magic Engineer Magicraft Jazz, isn't it? I didn't expect to get that many answers back immediately. I've been thinking, too, ever since this story came along, but you agree. … and I didn't realize it was conservative."

Christophe came there, too.

"There seems to be a blossom in the interesting story, but I'd like to ask you to continue it in the conference room."

There was no difference, and Jens drank the cold tea and moved to the conference room.
