"Here you go."
Jin opens the cabin door. Then the ramp comes down.
"This is amazing!"

This time, Elsa was wearing a long-sleeved dress, so she was wondering how she would get on the ramp, let alone get off (or jump off).
A ramp would make it easier to get on.
"Inside ...... interesting"

Cabin for 6 people. 3 seats in 2 rows. Three seats in two rows, not facing each other, but facing the direction of travel.
The windows facing the windshield are wide and arranged to provide a good view in the direction of travel.
The seats are upholstered in Hexenbiest's leather and cushioned with Hexenbiest's cotton.

There is a seat for the driver, but it is not really necessary because the driver is a golem horse. Therefore, the front can be seen clearly without being obstructed by the golem horse.
"Reiko, please take a seat in the coach just to be sure," said Jin.
Jin said,

"......Yes."
She answered in a slightly grumpy tone. Still, she didn't look so bad, perhaps because Jin had once said that Erza was like a younger sister to him.
Reiko, who was sitting in the governor's seat, turned around and looked at Jin's face. Jin was sitting with Elsa. Reiko's face became a little stern.

"Okay, please."
Whether she realized it or not, Jin gave the signal to leave.
Reiko gripped the reins extending from the golem horse and gave the command with her magic power. The golem horse quietly begins to walk away.

"Wow. It's moving."
Erza is pleased. It will move.
The carriage comes out of the back of the guest house and walks out into the plaza. The guards' eyes roll when they see it.

The carriage is okay. It's a bit odd, but that's all. But the horse pulling it.
It is greenish-blue. That means it's made of metal. That means it's a golem horse. I had never seen such a thing before.
Since it came out of the back of the guest house, I had an idea that it belonged to a guest of honor. But I couldn't overlook the fact that it was so different,

"Hey, wait a minute, that carriage there!
He ordered the carriage to stop.
"Reiko, stop!"

"Yes, Father."
The guard was even more astonished when he saw that the carriage had stopped and that the driver was a little girl.
"Oh, are you Reiko ......?

He used honorifics for some reason.
"Yes, I am Reiko.
Reiko answered.

"Oh! I knew it! I'm the one who was saved by Reiko-san in the nick of time during the Golem incident the other day!
"Oh!"
Reiko, however, has no recollection of the incident. The others were literally just an afterthought.

"So, what is this?
It's a carriage.
"Well, it's a carriage I built with your permission.

"I see, the chariot you built. I see, so the horse is a golem too! That's what I'd expect from an honorary magical craftsman!
"May I go now?"
Reiko asked,

"Yes! Yes!
Reiko waved her hand to the guard and he saw her off.
"......A strange person..." was Elsa's comment.

was Erza's comment.
The plaza in the castle was cleared, so we couldn't really test the comfort of the ride,
"It's amazing. It hardly shakes at all. I thought the carriage that Mr. Jin and Mr. Rai remodeled last time was great, but this is even better.

Elsa exclaimed.
We continue to increase the speed a little. It's going about 10 kilometers per hour. I'm afraid I'll be scolded for going too fast since we are in the royal castle.
"Reiko, how much power does the golem horse have?

I ask,
"Yes, about 10 percent.
Jin nodded his head in satisfaction, but Elsa was surprised. Jin nodded his head in satisfaction, but Erza was surprised.

"I knew it. ...... Jin-kun is out of the ordinary."
With that, the test run is over and the carriage makes a U-turn. The independently-suspended wheels are light, and the carriage turns almost on the spot.
"What was that?"

Elsa's face was filled with incredulity.
Her position gave her the opportunity to ride in a variety of carriages, and she realized once again that she was riding in a carriage that none of them could compete with.

"Hey, Jin!
I heard such a voice. I looked over to see the third prince, His Royal Highness Ernesto, with Lotte in tow.
"I saw from my room that you built something amazing!

He seemed to be interested.
Jin got off the carriage and greeted the prince.
"Your Highness, are you sure? Is it all right for me to come out of the inner palace?

Prince Ernest said,
"It's all right. I am fourth in line to the throne. I have two older brothers and an uncle, so I'm not that important to the kingdom.
The first time Jin hears the prince's dismissive words, he says to him,

"Your Highness, that's not what I meant. Your Highness is undeniably your own son by blood. Think back to the time of the riot.
He admonished.
Prince Ernest listened with a nod, but then looked up,

He nodded his head, but then looked up and said, "......Yeah, I guess you're right. Maybe Jin is right. I'll be careful.
"You do that, Your Highness."
Jin is relieved. Prince Ernest may be a selfish boy, but he is an honest boy at heart.

"The first guest?"

"So, Your Highness!"
Jin panicked,

Snoring?
Erza doesn't understand.
Her name is Erza and she's Reinhardt's cousin. She's my friend.

Elsa stands up, picks up the hem of her skirt, bends her knees slightly, and bows.
"Well, well. Miss Elsa, I am Ernest, the third prince of Egelea.

The prince took Elsa's left hand and put his mouth on the back of it. Such a gesture is the face of a 13-year-old but still well-disciplined royalty.
"Come on, Jin, let me see you run!
But the way he said that and got so excited was that of a boy of his age.

Sure enough, the prince wanted the same carriage.
