The day has come to an end, night has fallen, and morning has come again.
It was the birthday of Prince Ernest Rilum Andrew, the third prince of the Kingdom of Egelea.
In the morning, nobles from outside the castle who were not attending the golem garden party entered the castle in numbers, and together with the soldiers guarding the castle, they made a lot of noise.

Jin and the others, that is, Jin, Reiko, Elsa, and Bina, are watching the scene from afar.
Count Kuzma and Reinhardt are not here because they are officially going to a birthday party.
"Oh, this is so boring..."

Bina blurts out,
"...... agree."
Elsa agrees. Jin was bored as well,

"Let's play some games.
"A game?"
Jin thinks for a moment. What is a game that is easy to make, can be enjoyed by many people, and does not require familiarity or skill?

Then he thought of Sugoroku.
"Okay, let's use this table."
What are you going to do?

We're in Elsa's room. Simply because it is the largest. It was also fully furnished.
Jin chose a tea table about 60 centimeters square,
"surface treatment".

The surface was made white and smooth. Then, squares were drawn on it with ink.
"What? Start? Goal?"
Bina peeks in. After drawing the basic squares, Jin begins to explain the game.

"This is a game I know called Sugoroku. Basically, you roll these dice.
He quickly makes dice with engineering magic and rolls them,
"The first one to reach the goal wins."

"...... seems easy."
Erza gave an honest impression. Then Jin said,
"Yeah, it looks easy, doesn't it? But here comes the fun part. We need to put conditions in some of the cells."

"Conditions?"
Then Jin explains.
"A break," he says, "or three squares back.

"I see. So it all depends on luck.
"Well, yes. Okay, let's try something like this first.
So, a Sugoroku game with one condition written in every 10 squares is completed. Jin quickly made the pieces, changed the color of each piece, and started the game.

"Three pieces go forward..." and "Here it comes!
"Three pawns! Six pawns in a row...yikes! <
Four..."

The game is going on and we are almost at the goal.
"Four out, four out. ...... ah, two."
"May the five come out ...... ah."

I was not able to relax, because I sometimes got caught in a <<20 back>> before the goal and had to go back.
"Yay!
I'm not getting old (?). Jin, who had been so hot, was in first place.

"Oh, I lost. Okay, 2 out, 2 out. ...... got it! Number 2!"
"...... lost. One more time."
This Sugoroku was well received, as it was a good way to kill some time.

Laila, Lisa, and Kate of the Royal Secret Maids, who were watching in the background, looked like they wanted to play too, so we decided to include them in the second round.
At first they were adamant, saying that they were on duty, but Jin persuaded them to join in, which seemed reasonable or not, saying that it is a maid's duty to keep the guests occupied.
"Kya! They said it's going back 10 squares!

"Aaaaand, take a break!"
Six, get out!"
It's pretty dirty. But it seems to have helped me get to know the girls a little better.

That evening we played Sugoroku until Reinhard and Count Kuzma came back.
After playing, Jin put the table back as much as possible. Laila and the others looked at him with a look of regret.

"Well, tomorrow is the Golem Party," said Count Kuzma.
Count Kuzma spoke about precautions.
"Dress in formal attire, of course. I heard that Jin has a jacket for magecraftsmen. I have one for Bina as well, so you can wear it.

"Oh, for me?
Count Kuzma smiled and pulled out a fine rouge-colored jacket from his luggage,
"You can wear this to the wedding.

He handed it to Bina.
"Oh, thank you!"
Bina hugged the jacket tightly to her chest. The Count's face relaxed a little as he looked at her.

"There is an order of entry to the castle, first the ministers, then the nobles who work at the castle, then the invited guests, then the nobles from the suburbs, then the nobles from far away," he said.
Reinhardt and Erza are the invited guests.
"The last is the magecraftsman," he says, "and this is where Jin and Bina come in. Only the nobles are allowed to greet the king and the prince, so they can just watch.

That's easy, Jin thought. Frankly, I don't like fancy parties.
"Count Galana is far away, so Beena probably won't be able to find him.
He reassures Bina with these words. However, Elsa's mouth is slightly agitated.

"So, you can't bring any weapons into the venue, and there are restrictions on magic tools as well. I don't think Miss Leco will be able to enter."
"I don't agree."
Reiko, who had been listening in silence, opens her mouth.

"Protecting your father is my mission and the reason for my existence."
But..,
"Reiko, I appreciate your concern, but not this time. We have to make sure that Count Kuzma and Reinhardt won't be inconvenienced.

When Jin reminded her of this, Reiko reluctantly nodded in agreement,
"...... yes, father."
"And so, the nobles who brought the golem were to go before the king and prince in turn, identify themselves, and make the golem do some simple movements to show it off.

The Count looked at Jin there,
"What do you think I should have Lotte do?"
He asked. He thought that Lotte was a maid golem and would not be able to give a flashy performance.

But Jin said,
"Is there anything you want me to do?
Jin, on the contrary, asked the Count, "Is there anything you want me to do for you?

The Count did not expect to be asked such a question, but then he recomposed himself,
"Well, let's see...dancing, sword dancing..."
Hearing this, Jin said,

"I can do that.
Jin answered, "Yes, I can.
"Yes, I can. ......"

Jin looks around the Royal Secret Maidens in turn. Lila ...... skips over them, and Jin's gaze stops at Lyanna.
"I guess we should ask Lyanna-san for her help after all."
"What? What do you want me to do? What do you want me to do?

Jin looked at Leanna, who had no idea what he was talking about,
"Well, please think about your work.
Then he ordered Reiko to take out a small magi crystal,

"Trans-Info level 2."
"Kyah!"
"This should do it."

What the hell was that?
As expected of the leader of the Royal Secret Maid Unit 2, he is also in a panic.
Jin explained that he had simply copied Lyanna's movement pattern, but even after hearing that, Lyanna just went into a panic. >>But when she hears this, she only looks at him with a
Since they cannot touch the golem stored in the warehouse yet, they decided to do so during the adjustment time before the unveiling, and went back to their rooms.
