Chapitre 768: -757- Need some modification?
The ability to directly invade the core of automatons and forcibly manipulate them into going berserk. If such magic has a range and power significant enough to impact the entire Machinart City, it would be an extremely terrifying weapon.
In this world, where Machinart magic is mainstream, the military forces of major nations are built upon armies of automatons. The national strength is entirely dependent on the development and progress of Machinart technology. If a country falls behind others, the consequences when another country's Machinart army invades are predictable.
In such a scenario, if there exists magic capable of causing all automatons to go berserk, Rozen is certain that all nations would go mad for it. This is because it represents the ability to dismantle the military strength of almost an entire country, rendering it vulnerable.
It's essentially a terrifying existence akin to nuclear weapons.
Therefore, Rozen believes...
"That cunning fox might indeed have thought of obtaining this magic."
After all, the headmaster is not only a powerful magician but also a highly skilled politician. With the potential influence of such magic, Rozen can easily imagine how much the headmaster could accomplish.
This magic itself has a very powerful utility effect. Just like nuclear weapons, its significance lies not only in destroying enemies but also in mutual deterrence and intimidation. As a politician, he would surely want something like this.
So...
"If I can find it first, I can also accomplish quite a bit."
At least, he would have a card that makes the headmaster wary.
This is what Rozen refers to as taking the initiative.
"Since they intend to use us, we might as well make good use of this opportunity and firmly grasp what others desire."
This way, Rozen can also repay the cunning old fox.
It's because of this decision that Rozen is determined to find the mastermind behind this incident.
Of course...
"Even if this incident didn't happen, I was planning to find out who did this."
Rozen spoke to his sisters behind him, causing them to be slightly surprised.
"Why?"
Yaya asked with confusion.
Rozen then rubbed his nose, speaking somewhat embarrassedly.
"Since you're all so afraid of this magic."
One sentence made Yaya, Irori, and Komurasaki all understand.
"Is Rozen-sama planning to do this for our sake?"
Irori asked in surprise.
That's exactly it. Ever since Yaya, Irori, and Komurasaki felt uneasy and fearful about the appearance of this magic, Rozen decided to find this magic.
"Even if we can't use it, destroying it would be good. It's a good thing for all automatons."
That's Rozen's plan.
Perhaps for humans, it's just something related to interests and power. But for automatons, it's a terrifying thing that can transform their minds into something unknown.
Rozen doesn't want to see Yaya, Irori, and Komurasaki constantly worried and scared, turning into strangers he doesn't recognize.
Therefore, Rozen has long decided to investigate this matter thoroughly.
"Rozen..."
Knowing Rozen's thoughts, Yaya was moved and wanted to jump into Rozen's arms.
Unfortunately, Yaya was a bit too slow.
"You're so nice, Rozen!"
Komurasaki jumped behind Rozen, tightly hugging his neck. She laughed joyfully, swinging her two little feet in the air, extremely happy.
"Komurasaki~~~"
Being a step too slow and being preempted by her own sister, Yaya was jealous and regretful to the point of madness.
"Rozen-sama..."
Even Irori was tightly watching Rozen, her eyes full of gratitude.
For many people, automatons are just tools, weapons, or even objects. Although some people may develop feelings for such things, like Charl and Frey who view their automatons as family, they are still a minority.
People who truly value automatons, treating them as important individuals and friends, are actually very rare.
Rozen's ability to value the Setsugetsuka sisters so much is undoubtedly moving.
"O-Okay! Don't look at me with that kind of expression !"
Rozen felt itchy all over being looked at by the three sisters with such emotions, and he quickly spoke awkwardly.
"Hurry up and do your work. There's a lot to do next. Even if it's Yaya, Irori, or Komurasaki, I won't hesitate to give you tasks, okay?"
Rozen's words, however, brought even happier smiles from the sisters.
"What concerns Rozen-sama concerns Yaya. Please feel free to command. Even if it's attending to your bedtime needs..."
"No need!"
"Then let me do it. I've grown up, you see..."
"No, Komurasaki!"
"I-I-I-I'm just a humble girl... P-Please be gen..."
"Irori, don't take it seriously! Don't kneel down! Don't form a triangle with your fingers! Ah, you three are too much!"
Rozen suddenly realized that these three sisters might need some modification.
That way, perhaps they would become more normal, or so he hoped.
...
Since the decision to find someone was made, there had to be clues.
Currently, Rozen only knew that the culprit was likely within the academy and possibly even someone from the academy. But the academy was so vast that figuring out where to search was a challenge.
If not, the headmaster wouldn't need to use Rozen and Magnus. Even that sly old fox, who holds significant power in the academy, couldn't find the culprit. For Rozen to locate them, he needed some clues.
Where to find these clues?
Simple.
"Let Hinowa help me with divination again."
It's the only effective method.
Although divination isn't foolproof and has many limitations, Rozen currently had no other choice.
"As long as I use the methods in 'Senji Ryakketsu' to enhance Hinowa's divination abilities, we can at least get some clues."
Otherwise, Rozen had no idea where to start.
So, with the assistance and support of Rozen, they went together to the separate room where Hinowa was.
Upon arrival, Rozen was immediately faced with Subaru's fiery temper and Mutsura's speech, and even Hinowa seemed teary-eyed, on the verge of crying.
The reactions of the two in front are easy to understand. Who would expect Rozen to come knocking at this time when Hinowa has been busy with family matters lately?
In such circumstances, not only would the short-tempered Subaru get angry, but even Mutsura would wear a weary look.
As for Hinowa, the understanding was even more straightforward.
"Rozen-sama...! Where did these woman come from...!?"
Hinowa was stimulated by the appearance of Irori and Komurasaki.
After much effort, Rozen finally managed to stabilize these three, and even though they were dissatisfied, they reluctantly agreed to help him.
In the end, with Rozen's assistance and support, Hinowa's divination was successfully completed.
