Jin returned to Horai Island without incident and had a talk with the old man.

>. Since I still have an incomplete grasp of the lifestyle and common sense of the current era, I will be arranging it under the guise of a traveler's style>>.

"Yes, that's fine."

Because a traveler may not be suspected if he is not familiar with the common sense.

"I'll leave that to you, old man, with your experience."

After that, Jin decided to take a bath in the afternoon.

He had only used the showers at the Marquis of Kuzma's mansion.

"Ah, a bath is nice after all. ......"

Jin stretched his arms and legs in the bathtub and relaxed. Reiko is ready to wash his back and head by his side.

"This is the kind of life I'd like to live. ......"

Jin hopes that the issue of the successor is an irregularity.

* * * *

After getting out of the bath, Jin is drinking Citran juice,

The old man reported.

"Okay, let's hear it."

Jin, with the second bottle of Citran juice in his hand, sat down on the stool provided.

<

"Yes, I see."

<

"I see. ......"

I understand the situation. The problem is .......

"What kind of guy is this <>?"

The following are the results of the rumors we have heard here and there,

1. much faster than humans.

2. much more powerful than humans.

3. able to break off the presence.

4. it can fly for a short time.

The old man counted up these four points.

.

"Yes."

Flying without a <. It is not impossible.

"If you use wind magic and put wings on your back, or ......"

Jin could think of several ways, but none of them appealed to him. But that did not mean that no one else would try it.

. It is highly probable.

The old man guessed that the golem was made in the time before the Federation of Sorcery broke off the technical transmission of the golem. Jin agrees with him.

"Then someone made it or found it in storage. ......"

<<>

This <> means to interfere or to leave it alone.

"I'm just a little concerned about this <>..."

It seems to be a <. In that case, I suggest you use your doppelganger to go to the Blue Lands.

I see.

With a doppelganger, you can fly with a force field generator, and there are few disadvantages for Jin as well.

The old man insisted that he could not let Jin himself be ambushed by the bandits.

"Father, please don't go yourself."

Reiko then pleaded with Jin to stop him too.

"Well, okay."

At the request of the old man and Reiko, Jin decides to give up the idea of going by himself and use his doppelganger.

"Well then, let's go to the Blue Lands tonight with the doppelganger," he said.

That is how it came to be.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

It was 10:00 p.m. in Blue Land, which meant it was 0:45 a.m. in Horaijima the next day.

Jin rubbed his sleepy eyes and activated his doppelganger.

"Well then, old man, please take care of it.

.

Jin's doppelganger,...... Jin D. and Reiko have been transferred to the inside of Bluerand Castle by . The old man has already found out that the place is deserted by using a .

"...... is not very popular. That's my boy."

"Father, what are we going to do now?"

"Well... How about we keep an eye on things from the air?

Jin said, "We will use the force field generator to float in the air and watch the town below.

Both Reiko and Jin D have built-in force field generators. However, Jin himself is not accustomed to using it, so he does his best to move slowly while floating in the air.

So he relies solely on Reiko for his movement.

"Oh, it's a nice view.

After floating about 500 meters above the ground, Jin D. and Reiko put up a hide magic ward. This is a magic to make one's presence disappear, and it becomes ineffective when one speaks out or is attacked.

Jin D and Reiko communicate with each other via the built-in manacam, so there is no problem.

They stayed until 4:00 a.m. local time the next day, but nothing happened that night.

On the next day, I left the control of Jin D to the old man, while Jin himself slept in the bed provided in the command center.

This way, if something happened, he would be able to respond immediately.

However, nothing happened that night either.

The next day, i.e., 23rd, I went to bed.

The next day, that is, on the night of the 23rd, the Bluestand.

Outside the city walls, a suspicious conversation is taking place.

(...... tonight is the Blueland branch of the Raglan Trading Company, isn't it?)

（Yes. The branch was established two years ago, but it has already grown to be one of the five largest merchants in Bluerand. They must have plenty of money.)

（I saw a lot of cash moving around during the day.)

（Good. (I've seen a lot of cash moving around during the day.) (Good. This market is due to close in a couple of days, so it's time to get in on it.

Three suspicious men. And two silently standing shadows.

（It's almost midnight. Let's do it.)

(,<,<>>.

The shadow that had been standing upright starts to move.

(Give your orders, master.) (Give your orders, master.)

Both of them open their mouths together.

（The destination is the marked trading house. All you have to do is bring all the gold and silver coins in the vault there.)

(I understand.) (I understand.)

The two bodies gave a short reply and kicked the ground. At the same time, a jet thruster-like device on their backs blasts out a powerful jet of air.

The propulsive force of the jet thrusters causes the two bodies to float in the air without falling to the ground. They continued on their way to the interior of Bluerand Castle.
