When everyone, including Jin, was out of the bath, the adults returned with the <> 700672.

Amanda, Suzanne, Trihardt and 700672 took a bath in that order.

"Well, this <> tradition is not bad. No, it's very nice."

Yes!

"I want one too, father."

Rouge and Neige are begging for the 700672. Seeing this, Jin was convinced that his earlier idea was correct. And then..,

(......) I'd better start the construction work tomorrow.

He made a secret plan.

That night, Neige and Rouge had dinner together.

Just to be sure, Jin checked their physical condition by , and was relieved to find that there was nothing wrong.

The menu consisted of rice, miso soup with taro and radish, plain potato croquettes, Mitsuho specialty <ginger-roasted pork, vegetable salad, and pickles.

"This is delicious!

"Mmm, this is what it feels like to be ...... delicious."

"It's delicious!"

Not only Neige and Rouge, but also the <> 700672 are enjoying their meal.

700672 has made many new discoveries since coming to Hale.

"Hey, hey, why don't you stay the night?

"What?"

"...... father, okay?"

Rouge and Neige, invited by Rubina, asked 700672 to stay the night.

"Yes, of course.

The 700672 was also happy that Neige and Rouge had made friends.

Rubina is lying on a futon in the guest room, and Neige and Rouge are lounging next to her.

"These tatami mats are interesting.

"Haha, you sound just like Mr. <<7>>, Ne-chan."

"...... so?"

Rubina had come to call the 700672 Mr. <<7>>, Neige <> and Rouge <>. >>Rouge was called .

That night, Rubina and the other three made a lot of noise until Amanda scolded them.

The next day, the 29th, they went to the hotel.

The next day, the 29th.

"Miso soup is delicious!

"......, I can't get enough of it."

"Mmm, it's delicious."

Neige, Rouge, and 700672 enjoyed the meal of rice gruel, miso soup with wakame seaweed and tofu, pickled plums, grilled salted salmon roe, and oshinko (Japanese pickles) very much. Rubina was also smiling.

Rubina, smiling, had three more bowls of porridge.

Trihart and Suzanne, Amanda and Maricka were delighted with this meal.

As they sipped hojicha (Japanese green tea) after the meal, Jin said,

"<>, I would like to install a bath in your house today.

He offered, "<>, I would like to install a bath in your house today.

"Oh, that would be great. Neige and Rouge will be pleased."

"What?　We're going to have a bath too?　Yay!

"I'm looking forward to the hot springs ......".

Rouge and Neige seemed to be looking forward to it, and Jin was suddenly very motivated.

"Okay, I'll get started on that one right away. Rubina can work on the modifications.

"Yes, sir, I'm on it!

We'll help you, Ruby.

That's a good idea!

The suggestion was accepted, as 700672 would be enough to install the bathtub.

"Master Jin, we regret to inform you that we are going back to ."

Mr. and Mrs. Trihardt Suzanne said they would return to Onogoro after this.

"I will stay here with Rubina."

Amanda is staying here. She must be worried about leaving her grandchildren, who are still in danger, even though they have grown up.

I'm sure she is worried about leaving her grandchildren, who are still in danger, even though they are grown up.

I'm off then. Amanda, take care of the rest.

Yes, I'll take care of the grandchildren.

Jin gets ready and heads for the Elders' house with Reiko, Marikka, and <> 700672.

Meanwhile, Rubina, Neige, and Rouge head for the workshop in the . Amanda, of course, follows them.

Amanda is to be taken care of by <. <

"Come on, let's do it!"

<.

"We finished removing rust and adjusting the joints yesterday, so we need to work on the drive and control systems.

"Yes."

"What exactly?"

Rubina thought for a moment and then came to a conclusion.

"The drive system should be maintained as it is, and any parts that are not working should be replaced.

"Okay."

"What about the control system?"

"We also need to prepare the control core.

Rubina realizes her mistake, "Oh, I forgot to ask Jin where the Magi Crystal is kept.

"I wonder if there are any magi crystals somewhere?"

Precious magi crystals are not something that can be found lying around.

The three of us split up to search around.

By the way, the sun is quite strong here in the , so Amanda is watching over Rubina and the others in a temporary hut.

"Ah, it's cool in the shade."

The low humidity and the high altitude make it comfortable in the shade, even though we are almost at the Tropic of Cancer. Besides, < is taking good care of them.

Of course, Rubina and the others are also working under the huge tent.

Rubina goes around the tent, but does not find any magi crystals.

But then...

"Ruby, I found this..."

Neige had found several Magi crystals in the hole where the Magi Puppet had been found.

I wondered how they had done it, since Jin and the others had already finished their search and there seemed to be nothing left,

"Wow, what a beautiful color. What attribute is pink?　Light and ...... fire?"

Rubina liked the color and decided to test it first.

"I'll try the smallest one here. ......<<......Yes, it's very responsive. Thanks, Ne-chan.

"Yeah, I'm glad you found it useful."

"Well, let's make the control system!

Rubina is even more enthusiastic.
