Jin was analyzing the control core of the ship that was in command of the captured enemy fleet,

"Well, there is not much information.

There was no detailed information about the enemy organization either.

"Well, I guess so."

Even if it were me, I would not be so careless as to divulge important information.

However, their home port ...... was where they left from.

"Indeed. Considering all the supply and maintenance, it's no wonder. But ......

It was hard to imagine that the Kunlun Islands are now in enemy hands.

Right?　right?

It seems that the current manager is a human being.

Jin hesitated to ask any more questions.

"Hmmm ...... this case may be a dead end on this line ......."

Jin changed his mind.

"Well, first we have to restore Horai Island. ...... before that."

Then he starts to discuss with the old man. Jin asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

"Old man, I can go back to the original time, can't I?"

On this point, the old man assured him clearly.

"Are those preparations finished?"

"Okay."

Jin thought that he would ask for more details later, but for now he would do what he had to do.

"There are no more enemy forces around?"

<

"Good. Contact Pegasus 2, which is standing by in the sky, and have it land.

Thus, Pegasus 2 landed in its birthplace.

"Good work, <>. This is Horai Island. ...... Old man, this is Hope, the most recent golem I made."

<>. I am the magical brain behind this Horai Island.

"I have heard of you. I look forward to working with you.

And so Hope became a member of Horai Island.

"Okay Hope, come here. I'll modify it to Horai Island's specifications.

"Please do."

She had been highly modified at Marikka's place, and as a final modification, she was equipped with a <> and the key parts of her skeleton were replaced with hyperadamantite.

The output has been increased by 2.5 times since the magical power reactor (Magi Reactor) was replaced with a high-grade one. The reaction speed has also doubled.

"Good. Hope will now serve as the pilot of Pegasus 2. And she's to follow your instructions."

"Yes, sir."

Jin continues his instructions.

"Send out the fifth column (Quinta) that has been prepared. The enemy ......<>, was it?　Gather that information as quickly as possible, as much as possible, and as accurately as possible."

<

Now that Jin is back, the old man is able to perform his function to the fullest.

"That's all for now."

Relaxing his shoulders, Jin realized that it was already around 4:00 p.m. "That's it for today," he said.

"That's all for today. ......"

Then Reiko immediately said,

"Father, the hot spring is ready!

Reiko, who knew Jin's character well, declared, "Father, the hot spring is ready! Reiko, who knew Jin's character very well, was very considerate.

She was very concerned about Jin's personality.

"Ah, it's nice hot water. ......"

Jin was relaxing at Horaijima Onsen for the first time in a while.

Reiko was with him, and he was in a good mood as he could wash his back.

"Now you've calmed down. ...... will I be able to go home in four more days?"

Jin muttered casually and Reiko responded.

"Father, you are leaving after all, aren't you?"

Her voice sounded sad, and Jin realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"......Reiko, I'm sorry. But I still want to go back to the old days.

Jin comforted Reiko as he stroked her head.

"Yes, I know. I, ...... on the other side, am also waiting for your father's return.

Reiko understood, too.

So Hitoshi decided to check.

"I see... you mean that the third generation of Magecraft Meisters did not appear, and that no one with the same magical waveform as me appeared?"

"Yes, that's right. Your father's children and grandchildren and their children were all ...... excellent, but there was no one with the same magical waveform as your father's."

"I see, I knew it."

Reiko is designed to recognize those with the same magical waveform as Jin and her predecessor, Adriana Barbora Tsezi, as the <>.

If who has the ability but different waveform of magic, tries to become Reiko's , he/she will have to stop Reiko and overwrite her magic with his/her own.

And there was no way Reiko would allow that.

My father is the only father I have. Just as ...... your mother is only your mother."

"I see."

Jin continued to stroke Reiko's head.

* * * * * *

After getting out of the bath and eating dinner, Jin finally realized that he was home.

The island of Horaijima had been a that no one had visited since his death, and 400 years later, it was almost the same as Jin remembered.

"Well, let's see... ......"

Jin changed into his nightgown and lay down on the tatami mats of his <>, lying on his back and thinking about various things.

"What should I do now ......?"

The first thing is to prevent Horaijima from being taken over after he is gone.

The second is to retrieve the two fifth column (quintas) that will be captured.

And the third was to greet the people who had helped him in this world.

As for the Kunlun Island, Jin gives up the island in tears, thinking that it is not something that he should be involved in at this point in his life. He would not be able to return to the island in the next four days.

As for the security of Horai Island, I thought that <> would be enough, but it would be a little bad to think about after Jin is gone.

"We may have to give the old man more freedom.

I think he should be able to decide for himself who is suitable to be his master.

"...... I'll discuss it with the old man later. ......"

If he doesn't accept any more like Reiko does, Jin thinks that he has to take other measures.

"Well, we'll see about that tomorrow."

The fifth column (Quinta) is retaken.

It is said to be about 150 years old, so he is not sure if it is still there, but he would like to take it back from the hands of the enemy if possible.

"I'm sure the greetings won't be a problem, so we'll start with this."

Jin thought about what he would need to do to get it back.

"Father, the bedding is ready."

"Yes, thank you."

Reiko called out to him from the next room, and he got up and walked toward her.

"Ah, it's been a while since I've had my own bed. ...... feels a little different, though."

Jin thought to himself, "Well, it's been a while since I've slept in my own bed," he said, "but it feels a little different.

"Well, I'll take a good rest for now. We'll see tomorrow."

Jin pulled the quilt over him and closed his eyes.

It had been a long time since he had been home. Jin fell asleep immediately and slept soundly until morning without dreaming.
