As Reinhart exited Belche’s room, he spotted Jin in the corridor.
“Jin, what’s up?”
“Yeah, I had something to talk to you about.”
And so, both of them went to Jin’s room.
“Well, what did you want to talk about?”
Reinhart sat on a chair and asked.
“Ah, first, about Reiko being a bit immature there.”
Saying that, Jin called Reiko.
“After thinking about it carefully, I think that might have hurt Belche-san and Neon’s honor, you see…”
Jin said while patting Reiko’s head.
In fact, when Reiko got in touch with Laojun for the periodical information exchange, Laojun pointed out that the way she did things could have hurt their honor and incurred displeasure.
“When I asked Reiko about it, she said she did it for my honor and so I told her to consider the other party’s situation a bit too.”
Reiko looked a bit disheartened. Reinhart laughed and denied it.
“You were worried about that? Belche didn’t mind at all. Besides, that was also Belche’s fault as she asked Reiko to do something as well.”
Reinhart explained how she must have wanted to know Reiko and Jin’s skills as he praised them a lot.
“She didn’t mind it a bit, alright? Besides, Neon was also saying how she wanted to become friends with Reiko.”
As he brought it to an end like that, Jin was also relieved.
“If so, then I guess it’s fine… Also, there’s one more thing. It’s about Elsa.”
Elsa was at Kaina village right now. Jin was worried how Reinhart reported that.
“Ah, about that.”
Reinhart explained it from a public standpoint.
Firstly, there was the fact that Elsa accompanying him wasn’t part of any official business despite the country giving permission.
And, although this sounds mean, Elsa’s biological elder brother Fritz did clearly tell Reinhart that she is not his responsibility anymore after her disappearance at Ikasanato.
“And so, I don’t have any obligation to report. I plan on staying quiet until they ask.”
“…But, Elsa knew about Belche-san, you know? Did Belche-san not say anything about her?”
“Ah. She knows that Elsa and I went on a trip together but she must also know that Fritz also went to take her. And so she probably didn’t find it weird that Elsa wasn’t here.”
Reinhart laughed a bit, looking a little lonely, saying that this isn’t something they needed to talk about right away.
“It isn’t like we can’t meet anymore. After returning and finis.h.i.+ng my report, I was planning to properly explain at my house.”
“I… see… Reinhart, at that time, I will also invite you two to Kaina village.”
Seeing Reinhart look a bit down, Jin told him that with a smile.

“That makes me glad. It will be a good memory.”
Hearing that, Reinhart also smiled happily this time.

After Reinhart left the room,
“Reiko, sorry about that.”
Jin apologized to Reiko. Reiko was confused, being apologized to by Jin.
“F-father?!”
“About not letting you do girlish things all this time. That’s my responsibility.”
“That’s not true. Father is…”
But Jin embraced her without letting her finish.
“No, always saying you’re my daughter — I always left you with the fighting, that’s my bad.”
“Father…”
Jin and Reiko talked about things a lot that night.

May 13th, the day they’re supposed to reach Shouro kingdom’s capital, Roizato.
Jin was woken up by Reiko at 6 in the morning. He had told her to wake him up by 5 but as he stayed up quite late that night, Reiko decided to let him rest.
“Father, it’s time. The weather is great.”
“…Hmm, I see.”
Jin said while rubbing his sleepy face, then went on to wash his face and get changed. The weather was also great today.
When he went out to the carriage station, he found Steward on the lookout.
“Good morning, master.”
“Good morning. Good job keeping guard.”
Saying that, Jin got in the carriage. Reiko followed.
[Good morning, my lord.]
Laojun’s voice welcomed them to Hourai island as always.
“Good morning. Anything different in the village?”
[No, nothing in particular. I sent the 5 differently colored newly made golem maids to Kaina village. Their number starts from 101.]
Butler B, C and 5 differently colored golem maids. Barou and Belle too. And Mine, who was working part-time. With this, Jin’s castle had enough resources.
“Yeah, that gives me peace of mind. Let’s work little-by-little in the Kaina village, a sudden drastic change wouldn’t be good.”

[Understood. Besides that, we had report of Lis.h.i.+a-san coming as Kurain kingdom’s messenger and amba.s.sador.]
“She is?”
When he came to think of it, she did also come as a tax collector and also knew Jin. It wouldn’t be weird for her to be designated as the amba.s.sador and messenger.
[She is probably staying at Sharuru city tonight.]
“By horse?”
[Yes. After that, she will probably stay at Toka village and will reach Kaina village by noon the next day.]
There aren’t many precedences of a messenger coming with a horse during peaceful times so Laojun’s speculations are probably right.
The only time they would be hurrying would be from Toka village to Kaina village. That is because there’s nothing but a rest hut to spend the night along the way.
