In the end, Jin and Marikka decided to stay overnight on Onogoro Island.

"Reiko, please contact the old man."

"Yes, Father."

Yes, Father.

Jin-sama!　Did you see that?

I went to the waiting room and Rubina came running up to me.

"Yeah, I was in the middle of it. It was great. So was Shu."

"Thank you very much."

In the same waiting room was Shu Nido, who bowed politely.

"I'm on my way back from a trip to Avalon today," he said.

"Oh, I see. Eira and her family?

"Yes, that's right. They asked me about Rubina, Grina, Freddy and others. So I stopped by on my way home.

"That's right. ...... Are they developing something?"

"Of course. Of course. ......That's not what we're here to talk about. ......"

Jin said, and Triharto said,

"Yes, they are. Then, please join us for dinner.

So they moved to a different place.

In addition to Jin, Reiko, Marikka, Rubina, and Shu, we were also joined by Grina Kuzma and Shireen Eschenbach, who had made it to the semi-finals but were not in the finals.

"It looks like everyone has come a long way."

Jin was pleased with the progress of his offspring.

First, we took a bath to sweat it out, and then had dinner.

Triharto takes good care of him, and Jin is able to soak in the bathtub by himself.

It was nice to take a friendly bath in the big bathhouse, but he was tired from the many things that had happened today, and he wanted to enjoy the bath by himself.

Reiko was also waiting for me in the changing room this time.

(...... looked like fun. ...... I wish I could have done it, too.)

Anyway, that was Jin's honest impression.

（Anyway, that was Jin's honest impression.)

(If there's a next time, I'll ask him to join us.) And so on.

Meanwhile, Maricka was relaxing with Rubina, Gulina, Shireen and others in a large bath.

The dinner was prepared for such an occasion.

Dinner was served in the guest house, which had been prepared for such an occasion.

However, the menu was not so fancy as requested by Jin.

Tonight is sushi.

Sushi is prepared by an automaton who specializes in sushi.

We eat around a large lacquered table on the tatami matted floor of the tatami room.

Jin likes >,<> and .

Maricca is <><><><><> and <>.

Rubina is <<<<<<>> etc.

Shu is <><><><<<>.

Greener is <<<<>.

Sheen is <><><><<<>.

Trihardt has <<, and so on.

And Suzanne has <<<<>, and so on.

"It's been a while since I've had sushi.

"Please have a lot of sushi."

We asked for the items we wanted and they immediately made it for us.

Alcohol is not served since there are minors in the restaurant.

Even so, the atmosphere is nice and the conversation is lively.

"...... so they formed a physical barrier (solid barrier) inside the air sacs so that they wouldn't collapse even if there was a vacuum inside."

"Hmmm......... that's a great idea. Jin-sama, was that Eira's idea?"

Rubina shows interest in Jin's explanation.

"Yes, she said. "That's right. ...... So when I was talking with them, they mentioned Rubina, Gulina, and Freddy."

"Oh, I see. ......Greena, I'm sorry to hear that."

"Hmm?　Why?"

"Oh, let's see... ......"

Rubina's line teased Greiner, and when Jin questioned her, she said that Freddy was now back in the village of Kaina.

"He seems to be busy with many things during the New Year's holidays. Mr. Ellis is the lord of Kaina village and Freddy is his grandson.

Freddy is his grandson," Gulina told me.

"Yes, that's right. Kaina village. ...... If there are still some old events, they must be busy during the year-end and New Year's holidays. ......"

The village has many events that started 400 years ago, when Jin was a lord, such as dusting off soot, pounding rice cakes, ringing the New Year's bell at Nido Castle, New Year's soba, sunrise, Hatsumode, and the first calligraphy of the New Year. ......In short, there are preparations and instructions for Japanese-style events.

"And for that, Gulina did her best."

"What are you talking about, in front of Jin-sama and Marikka-sama!

Rubina teased her, making her blush in a very innocent way.

"Speaking of which, who's idea was it for this ...... fighter?　Whose idea was the competition?"

Trihardt answered.

"Rubina, Shu, and Natalia came up with the idea, and we all worked on it together.

"I see. It was quite ...... interesting. Oh, is that from this time?

Oh, no, this is the second time. Last time we did a battle royale, but it got too chaotic ......."

"The planes crashed when they hit each other."

...... Well, I guess that's true.

So this time it was a one-on-one tournament.

"But it's hard for the spectators to see the battles when they're taking place in the sky, isn't it?"

"That's right. The size of the aircraft is good, but the distance is ...... too great."

"How about we attach a to a small aircraft and fly it, and have it take pictures that are projected on a large magic screen?

"Oh, that's a good idea!　Jin-sama, can you make one?"

I gave her an idea and Rubina begged for it.

"Hmmm, I can make it if you have the materials.

"Really?　Thanks, Jin-sama!

"I'm sorry, Jin-sama. Please."

Trihart bowed his head apologetically, but Jin had no complaints about making it.

"I'll see you in the morning, then.

"I'll see you in the morning," he said.

That's what happened.

Jin also made a request.

"Let me know the next time you have a similar competition," he said.

He said.

"I'd like to participate as a guest if my schedule permits.

"Wow, it would be an honor to compete with Mr. Jin!

"Really. I'll have to work hard again."

That's motivating!

"Okay. I'll make the arrangements.

The night on Onogoro Island ended in such a friendly atmosphere.
