<> contacted me. Mr. Milowina has expressed an interest in coming here.

On the morning of June 26th, the old man reported to me.

"Oh, well. Well then, let's make some arrangements. Will you look after Elsa, too?"

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

<

I guess so.

After the discussion with , it was decided that the old man would go to pick up Milowina on the 27th.

Incidentally, the standard time in UNY is the same as that of the former capital of the Kingdom of Leonard. It was a natural step.

"First, me, Reiko, and Erza will transfer to UNY.

"Yes."

"I'll give them the sterilization barrier we've developed, give them a brief explanation, and then bring them here to Horai Island."

"Nope."

"I'd like you to familiarize yourself with the various things here ...... and, in fact, I'd like you to be extra careful with Erza, because something unexpected may happen."

I'm on it.

"So, let's give it a day and see where ...... we can take her."

This is where I'm having a hard time deciding, Jin said.

"I'm thinking about the village of Kaina.

There is also the idea of going to the old Leonard Kingdom out of the blue, Jin said.

"Is there a possibility that you would prefer another country?"

Milowina is the sole survivor of the old Leonard Kingdom. That is to say, it is the rightful heir. In fact, she has royal blood in her veins.

"A difficult problem."

<"But master (my lord), does Milowina want to rebuild her country? >>

"I don't think so ......, but I have never heard of it."

<>"Then I guess we don't have the option of introducing it at the world congress.

"Oh, I see."

He would like to let people know the truth about the old Leonard's Kingdom, but he would like to pass on the first meeting because it would be too confusing.

"I guess so."

Jin thinks that since he does not know Ars well, he may not be able to answer his question.

"Brother Jin, aren't you thinking too much?"

"Really?"

"Yes, your father is trying to make a careful ...... or should I say, a very detailed plan."

"......"

"Brother Jin has a weakness for people like that."

Jin's weakness (proclivity?) for women with maternal feelings came out in the meeting. Jin's weakness (proclivity?) for women with maternal feelings came out at the meeting.

After all the twists and turns and many arguments. In the end, it was decided that after inviting him to Horaijima, the future would be discussed with him.

Then, on June 27th.

"Well then, let's go.

Jin, Reiko, and Erza step into the warp gate to UNY.

The destination is the warp gate set up inside UNY, in the quarantine facility. As a special measure, the gate is not via <>, but a direct route.

Welcome, Mr. Jin, Ms. Erza, Mr. Reiko.

The voice of <>, the management brain of UNY, greeted the three of them.

First, Jin attached the sterilizer he had brought with him to the warp gate.

This will prevent the entry of unknown pathogens through the warp gate.

However, the quarantine facility is constantly sterilized.

When sees that the work has been completed, he speaks to us.

"Are you ready, Mr. Mirówna?

"Yes. I will come to you now.

I'll let her know.

Jin and the others slowly make their way to Milowena's room.

The passageways are so similar that it is easy to get lost, but Reiko is with them, so they feel safe.

And then they arrive at Milowena's .

Jin-sama, please come in.

The door opens. < has sent word to Milowena.

"Come in, Mr. Gin."

Milowena was standing there on her own two feet, looking much better.

"Hello, it's been a long time.

"Thanks to you I feel so much better. I heard you are taking me to Ars this time. I'm looking forward to it.

"Yes. Please put this on first.

Jin handed her a sterilization barrier generator.

"Thank you. Jack told me that this will protect you from pathogens, right?"

"Yes. I believe something similar is being used in this compartment.

"Yes, indeed. But they are so small that they should not be portable.

Milowina put the generator she had received around her neck.

"You've managed to make it into a pendant like this, haven't you? Jin, you are amazing."

"Thank you very much."

"Jin-sama, please take care of Milowina-sama."

The golem with Milowina said to Jin.

"Of course. ...... should I give you a name too?"

"Oh Jin, I named him ."

Yes, my name is Kai.

"I see. Kai, are you coming too?

Are you sure?

"You're used to taking care of Milowina, and I'm sure she could use your help."

I'll come with you. I will accompany you.

is slightly more slender than Rand and the others, and smaller in stature.

It is said that it is designed to match Mirówna's physique. This is a reasonable measure, since too much difference in height is hard on the person being assisted in walking.

The group, including Milowina and Kai, walked down the passage to the warp gate.

"Well, this is the warp gate. I've never seen it before."

Milowina laughs, saying that although she is used to seeing the magic circle, this is the first time she has seen a warp gate.

She is 61 years old according to her story, but her joyful smile is just like a little girl's. "Let's go.

Let's go.

Please take care of Milowina, Mr. Jin.

"I'm off, <>."

The group then disappeared into the warp gate.

At the same time, they appeared inside the warp gate of Horai Island.

Jin took Milowina's hand and walked slowly out of the warp gate.

For once, the warp gate was not located in the basement, but temporarily in the entrance hall so that there was no need to climb the stairs.

Once outside, you will find yourself on Horai Island in the summer, with the sun shining brightly.

To protect from the intense ultraviolet rays of the sun, a light shield was set up. It was a byproduct of the development of the spaceship.

It blocks most of the ultraviolet rays, 50 percent of the visible rays, and most of the infrared rays.

It's a little dim, but it's for Milowina, who would not have much tolerance for rays of light.

"Oh, what is that smell?

Since Horai Island is surrounded by the sea, it has the scent of the sea.

"Milowina, welcome to Horai Island."

Jin then welcomed Milowina with the words that have become a standard part of his speech.
