“In summary, this is absolutely the gold crown. But it’s very different from the other crowns, from its construction to its general vibe. Really, it’s a crown in name only,” Doc Babylon puffed a cloud of smoke from her pipe as she spoke. We were looking at the gold crown, Gold, as it was on the workbench in front of us.

Elluka suddenly spoke up and added, “The magic engravings all over its chassis are remarkably intricate. I can understand most of it, but some functions are alien even to me. If I were to put it in metaphorical terms...I guess it’d be like having a toothbrush for a shoe. It might have some purpose, but it doesn’t quite add up visually.”

...A toothbrush for a shoe? What the hell does that even mean? Aren’t you supposed to be some kind of genius Gollem engineer, Elluka? That just sounded dumb... Well, whatever. I guess the whole point is that they don’t fully understand what his functions are.

I remembered hearing that there was a fine line between genius and idiocy, and I couldn’t help but feel I understood that saying as I looked at the supposed geniuses in front of me.

“Performance-wise, it’s no different to your standard crown Gollem. But the Q-Crystal that operates its Gollem skill system and general motor control has a unique structure I’ve never seen before,” Elluka stated as she pointed toward the Gollem’s head.

The Q-Crystal was basically a Gollem’s brain. It controlled skill activation, communication, and movement. In other words, so long as the Q-Crystal was intact, you could restore just about any Gollem by putting it into a new body. There’d still be issues, though, since the machine might not adapt to its new form very well.

“Q-Crystals typically have quirks that betray who created them. Thus, there’s no doubt to me that this is one of Chrom Ranchesse’s creations,” the professor stroked his white beard as he offered his input.

“There’s a part of this Q-Crystal that I can’t properly analyze. It’s completely covered up, but it probably pertains to the Gollem’s skill. In your world, I’m pretty sure they’d call it a black box, Touya.”

“Didn’t Gold say he doesn’t have any crown skills, though?”

“And he very well may not. A crown skill is something that requires compensation from the contractor. There’s no reason why he couldn’t have other skills available to him. Norn’s black crown has a crown skill that allows it to manipulate space-time and parallel worlds, but it has an ordinary skill that functions much like your [Storage] and requires no compensation.”

That made sense. So crown skills were different from regular legacy Gollem skills, and crown Gollems could have multiple...

“So there’s no skill that needs compensation? Nothing that would cause harm to Steph?”

“Not that I can see. Though you never know, if the hidden skill I can’t access is something like self-destruct, then there could always be collateral damage.”

That sounds bad!

“I’m sure the young miss was joking. Gold here is still a Gollem, after all. He couldn’t initiate any skill that would bring his contracted master to harm.
