Day 441-450/Day 445

"DAY 445"
The operation of the Gigatrol is very simple. Riding the cockpit, located in the chest, the whole body is wrapped and protected in a special device made of a gap-less pseudo-biological material. It would be easier to think that the protective material used here is a like slime that protects the passengers from shock.
The magic metal being utilized throughout the cockpit is spirit-sensitive, including parts from the protective equipment, meaning passengers do not require any technical skills or knowledge. The pilot can simply move his or her body and the corresponding part will move at will. By the way, there is a sense of touch through the hands, but no pain is transmitted, so there's no fear of feeling your hand break. It is a convenient specification that can handle extreme heat or cold with no problem.
Training is to be carried out to get used to the size differences of the flesh and the new body, as well as understanding the change in reach. Individual differences exist here and there, but it's possible to work through them in just several hours. It would be something like learning to drive a car, I guess?
If you actually move and get a feel for the new senses, it will be simple to eventually move without knowing the internal structure in detail. It's quite easy to understand after training as it feels like it's your own body.
Even noncombatants like Blacksmith-san would gain a simlar result.
At any rate, even after she boards Gigatrol Arte, Blacksmith-san, as a non-combatant, is still unaccustomed to shooting with aim or intent to kill. She repeatedly practiced shooting in combinations.
Her aim is automated as I am trying to provide an added layer of defense to her golem with mini-clone bodies.
It is not a real issue as the sights are considerably simplified. She both walks and runs in the training grounds and doesn't need to stop for any emergencies.
Concentrating greatly on her stance, she had settles into a positioned with no stability problems. she is like a fixed artillery turret.
As for Redhead that will fight in close combat melee, she had reached the stage of being able to move almost like her usual flesh-and-bone fighting style.
There are slight differences in its range of motion, but for now, while adjusting to explore the area, she is ready to hunt the local Behemoths.
While thinking that the aircraft Gigatrol will come back without any damage, it is still prepared to respond immediately in case of emergencies. We also had to go with Prince Mitsutake in attendence.
Well, that ended without the expected disaster.
Although rushed, our preparations are nearing completion. Afterwards we will have a final meeting, and tomorrow we will hold a banquet to raise our spirits. The time is drawing near for the fun excursion, the enjoyable snake hunting time.

　“四百四十五日目”
　ギガトロルの操作は極めてシンプルである。
　胸部にあるコクピットに乗り、全身を擬似生体素材で出来た特殊な保護器具で隙間無く包まれる。
　保護器具は衝撃などから搭乗者を守るスライムだと思えばいいだろう。
　そして保護器具などコクピット内には精神感応系の魔法金属が使用されているため、専門的な技術も知識も必要とせず、搭乗者は自分の身体を動かすような感覚で意のままに動かせるようになる。
　ちなみに自分の身体のような感覚で動かせるが、何かを触ったか分かる程度の触覚はあるが、痛覚はないので壊されても怖くないし、極度に熱いモノでも寒いモノでも問題なく扱える便利仕様だ。
　搭乗して行う訓練も生身との大きさの違いを埋めるようなモノであり、その辺りは個人差が存在するが、数時間もあればどうにかなった。
　車を運転する感じに近いだろうか。実際に動かし、感覚を養えば、内部構造を詳しく知らなくても動かせるのに似ているだろう。
　それにギガトロルを自分の身体のように感じるのだから、理解するのはより簡単だ。
　実際に鍛冶師さん達がそうだったので、他でも似たような結果になるだろう。
　ともかく、そうして動くギガトロルに搭乗し、非戦闘員である鍛冶師さん達は慣れないながらもひたすら照準を合わせて撃つ、合わせては撃つを繰り返した。
　鍛冶師さん達のギガトロルには安全の為に俺の分体を仕込んでいるので、照準は自動である。
　かなり簡略化しているので問題はないが、いざという時の為に転けないように王城内の訓練場をひたすら歩き、時には走る。
　それだけに集中し、固定砲台としてなら何ら問題なく熟せる程度になってもらった。
　そしてもっと接近して戦う事になる赤髪ショート達だが、普段から戦っているためか、ほとんど生身の時のように動かせる段階に達していた。
　ただ可動域の違いなどがあるので、現在はその辺りを探るように調整しつつ、巨獣狩りに出かけている。
　【光武王子】達も付き添いで行ってもらっているので、機体は破損なく帰ってくると思いつつ、いざという時の為にすぐ整備できるようには用意しておく。
　まあ、杞憂に終わったのだが。
　さて、急だったが準備はだいたい整った。
　後は明日最終的な打ち合わせと英気を養う宴会を楽しみ、そして楽しい楽しい蛇狩りの時間である。
