That day we went as far as we could and set up camp.

We still had the tent on the roof, so we used it, and it didn't look like it would rain, so we were quite comfortable.

We thought we would go as far as we could on the second day.

"...... Oh, my tires are falling apart."

The Gutta Perhia tires, which had been made and installed at the Miyako factory, were reaching their limits.

The tires were too thin, but they had been driven over rough roads with heavy loads.

"Let's just take off the rubber tires."

Jin reflected on the need to cover the outside of the tires with some sort of hexenbiest leather or something. However, he is not at the stage of divulging such details to Goose yet.

"......The microvibrations are different after all."

When the rubber tires are removed and the original wooden wheels are used, the vibration is still felt. In particular, the slight ups and downs caused by the fine gravel cannot be eliminated, so it is inevitable that the running speed drops to about two thirds.

We thought we could reach Mount Funisys in two days, but we would have to spend one more night there.

"By the way, father, today is Mr. Bertsche's birthday, how would you like to celebrate?

Reiko told us as we finished setting up the tent. April 22nd was Bertsche's birthday.

"Oh ...... I see."

Ever since he had stood up for Hannah's birthday, Jin had been paying attention to such anniversaries of the <>.

"I have a present in mind. ......"

Jin has been preparing for such an eventuality for some time.

"The problem is timing. ......

There is the time difference, but there is also the fact that Goose doesn't want to know yet.

In terms of the time difference, there is no more than an hour and a half between Reinhardt's territory and this area.

Shall we take turns?

"Yes."

After discussing the matter with Elsa in the car, Jin decided to take some time to be alone, under the guise of <><>.

First, Jin.

Reiko stood guard in front of the car, and Jin moved to Horai Island using the small warp gate provided.

<

"I'm home. ......My Lord, have you made them yet?"

"Thank you very much. Please inform the miniature craftsmen.

Yes, Jin has copied a . The mechanical part of the watch, called the movement, to be precise.

Even if this movement is the same, changing the design of the dial or the material and design of the case can give it a completely different appearance.

"Oh, this is nice.

The gift is a wristwatch made in the style of a pocket watch.

As the old man said, there are enough for all the members of the Jin family. The first gift is for Bertsche.

Most of the parts are made of light silver, so it is lighter than the original watch.

The only thing that has not been changed is the balance. Without a certain amount of weight, the balance cannot function as an escapement and its period will change.

The case is made slightly larger to make it easier to read as a pocket watch.

Since it is a gift to Berthe, the surface color of light silver is scarlet.

The chain is mithril silver. The chain is mithril silver.

"All right, I'm off!"

After changing his clothes in a hurry, Jin used the warp gate and moved to the village of Kurtz, <>.

He exits the basement where the warp gate is located and heads for the dining hall. Reinhardt was waiting for him at the entrance.

"Hey Jin, long time no see. I know you must be busy, but thank you for coming all the way here today.

"No, it's the birthday of Reinhardt's wife and a member of the Jin family.

"Ha ha, I'm really sorry."

Jin and Reinhardt go to the cafeteria.

"Well, Jin-sama, welcome to the party!"

"Happy birthday, Bertsch! Your belly isn't noticeable yet.

"Yes, I'm about 4 months pregnant."

"I'm glad you're feeling better."

"Thanks to you."

After exchanging such light conversation, Jin presented his gift to her.

"I hope you like it."

"Well, what is it?"

Bertsche opened the wrapping. Reinhardt peeks in with interest.

"......Well, what's this?"

"...... Gin, could this be a watch?

"Yes."

The design omits only the second hand.

It's called a 12-hour counter. ......

I will briefly explain how to see it. Both Reinhard and Bertsche understood immediately.

"When in the world did you make this?"

Jin then gave a brief description of his current trip to the town of Hus?, Nadé.

"I see, I'd like to visit ...... such a relic in such a place.

"You can't, you're too busy, you know?"

"I know, I know. ......

Reinhardt wants to go, and Bertsche gives him a warning.

"Haha, I'm glad to see you guys are still getting along so well."

Jin decides to leave because he is anxious about the time.

"Well then, I'm going home for today since I'm anxious about the other side too.

Jin-sama, thank you very much for taking the trouble to see me today.

Jin, thank you so much. Take care on your trip.

Jin then returns to Horai Island.

<

"I see, thank you."

It had taken about half an hour for some reason, so the old man had no excuse but to wipe his body and change his clothes, which was a tactful move on his part.

In the case of Fusoh, Jin's came out of the car in less than 10 minutes, and then the women changed their clothes one after another.

When Jin changed his clothes again and returned to the car, there was no one there and it was pitch dark outside.

However, the inside of the tent was brightly lit, indicating that everyone was there.

"Father!"

But only Reiko was waiting outside the car for Jin.

"Welcome back. I'm calling for the substitute doll now.

Reiko understood what Jin did not say.

As soon as Jin entered the tent with the double, Elsa came up to him.

（Did it go well?)

(Did it go well?) Yes. I gave her my congratulations.)

（"Oh, Jin, I'm so glad.)

"Hey, Jin, stop flirting with your fiancée and come over here!"

I saw that wine had been served before I knew it and everyone was drinking it.

(We are only a little tipsy from the detoxification effect of the bracelets. (We are only slightly drunk due to the detoxification effect of the bracelets.)

（Oh, I see.)

When Goose is sober, Elsa and Saki are going to sneak off to Berche to congratulate him.

"Yeah, I'm coming."

Jin is obliged to cooperate with them. He offers Goose a glass of wine to help him get drunk.

"This wine is delicious!

He told me that the northern part of Fousseau does not produce good grapes, so the wine is not well distributed.

Guth was quite a drunkard, but he was no match for Jin, who possessed a magical tool for detoxification, and within half an hour or so he was drunk and asleep.

Since Hannah was already asleep in the car, Elsa and Saki were able to celebrate Bertsche's birthday without any worries.
