By the end of lunch, the <> was close to the Kruger Mountains.

The altitude is only a little higher than the mountains, so the snow on the surface of the mountains is clearly visible.

In some places, glaciers can be seen hanging over the mountains.

If we didn't know it, we might think it was a snowbank, since it is covered with snow now.

"Wow, ......, it's a nice view. ......"

"I never thought I would be able to see such a view."

"It's beautiful, isn't it?"

Mertze and Jenny expressed their excitement in their own words. Rubina was also fascinated by the view of the snowy mountains.

Daikie and Cocona are also still impressed by the flight, but they are trying to keep their composure in front of their children.

"Flying is so nice, isn't it? I wonder what it would be like to fly in an airplane.

Goh was also talking about his dreams of the exhilaration of flying.

"Well, we can already make a plane for the Golem to fly in, so we are only one step away from a plane for people to fly in.

"Yes!"

Encouraged by Jin, Goh seems to be feeling much more energetic.

I'll do my best!

"That's the spirit! If we're going to have ...... people on board, we have to pay extra attention to safety, don't we?

Yes, sir!

I think a warp gate is the best way to escape.

I'm sure you're right.

Well, take your time. We'll take it one step at a time.

I understand.

Jin smiled, thinking that Goh seemed to become more animated when talking about magical engineering.

Then they decided to talk a little about the that had been left floating in the air by the unexpected visit of Viscount Yohia.

"Just listen to me while you take in the scenery. ......One of the technologies improved in my generation is <."

"Yes."

"This makes it easier to control the forces and gives the control core more processing power."

I understand.

"I was trying to make an assistant automata <> for ...... Saki at the time."

"Oh, I've heard about that."

"Oh, I've heard of it. At that time, I thought of several ways to do it. ......"

Jin told Goh, remembering those days.

"...... and the most common way now is to use a , isn't it?"

"Yes, that's right. I didn't know that technology had such a history."

Goh seemed to like hearing about the origins of this technology and was listening to Jin's story with a twinkle in his eye.

"Don't get too absorbed in our story, or you'll miss the view.

"Oh, that's right. ...... but if you miss it, I'll come back next time to see it in the plane I built myself."

"I see."

"Yes!"

Goh and Jin laughed at each other.

Meanwhile, Rubina, Merce, and Yenny are chatting peacefully while looking at the scenery.

Rubina, who has no mother, seems to have felt something like motherhood from Yenny's atmosphere, and in a short time, she has become fond of her.

Mertze, of course, is a friend of her mother's and she loves her as if she were her aunt.

Daikki and Cocona were enjoying the scenery while talking with Elsa.

"We can't go there this time, but beyond the Krüger Mountains, there must be some cities that have been destroyed."

He was referring to cities such as Battaghtaluf and Naminthe.

Erza gives a brief explanation to Daikie and Cocona, remembering with nostalgia her visit with Jin, Saki, and others in the past.

The , piloted by Hope, turns west in the Kruger Mountains, passes the saddle of Mount Zoycata and Mount Kokomo, turns east around the eastern edge of the Harihari Desert, and returns to Loizart.

From the top of the town to the northern mountainous area. From the northern mountains to the desert. Goh, Rubina, Merce, Yenny, Daiky, Cocona and the others seemed to be fascinated by the changing scenery from the desert to above the town again.

At 2:30 p.m., the <> landed safely on the rooftop of Reuthert's house.

"Oh, it was so much fun!　Thank you, Master Jin!"

"Thank you, Master Jin!"

"Jin-sama, I will never forget today!"

Rubina, Merce and Yenny, respectively.

"No, no, I hope you had a good time."

Jin thought that it was worthwhile to bring Yenny out if she was so happy.

I thought that it was worth taking her out if she was so happy.

Then it was time for tea.

The tea was brown rice tea from Horai Island. Topaz102 made the tea.

The tea was served with sweet potato dumplings and rice crackers.

I've never had these before, but they are delicious.

This was Merze's comment after eating the rice crackers.

Unlike Mitsuho, the Shoro Kingdom does not eat rice cakes very often.

"May I join you? ......"

And Yennie was still getting used to the idea of .

"No problem. The golem maids will take care of the food, and Yennie can enjoy the company of Merce.

"Thank you very much."

During this peaceful tea time, Jin quietly got up from his seat.

Everyone paid little attention to him, thinking he was going to the bathroom, but in fact, he was heading to via the warp gate.

Of course, the reason was to bring Rubina's grandmother Amanda.

The night before, I had discussed with Elsa about bringing Amanda, who was not so familiar with our society, but if we were to leave Rubina here as a playmate of Merce's, we could not ignore Amanda, who was her only living relative.

So Jin himself went to get Amanda.

"Well, well, it's an honor to be welcomed by you, Jin-sama.

The old man had already talked to <> and <> had talked to Amanda, so everything went smoothly.

<, so he was able to fly back to the island immediately.

This means that Jin was away from the room for only about two minutes, which is about the time it took him to go to the restroom.

Rubina was the first one to notice that Jin had returned with Amanda.

"Oh, grandmother!

"What?"

Rubina's voice made Daikie and Cocona look up.

"Daikie, Cocona, Merce, Jenny, let me introduce you. This is Rubina's grandmother, Amanda."

"My name is Amanda Garrett. My name is Amanda Garrett and I would like to thank you for all you have done for my grandchildren.

Amanda greeted everyone.
