Time went back a little.

"Well, first of all, we need a carriage.
The carriage that he had made in the Kingdom of Egelea before was still there, but it was a little troublesome to put it back together because the warp gate that was installed in it had been converted to a new one.
The old man had made a similar model, but Jin decided to prepare a new model at this time.

The appearance of the new model should be similar to the original carriage.
Of course, it is equipped with a warp gate.
Four-wheel independent suspension, active golem suspension.

Air-conditioned.
Equipped with floodlights.
Of course, the horses are golem horses.

The next step was a surprise.
"Can we make it run without a horse?
In other words, they were going to install a golem engine so that it could run on its own.

"We can't put in a big enough engine to be noticeable, so we'll just have to go with the bare minimum."
Jin is unaware that his "minimum necessary" is a level that is generally considered to be too much.
"Father, the materials are ready.

Reiko brought 64 light silver. It is stronger than mere light silver.
"Okay, let's begin."
Jin wields his engineering magic to his heart's content, processing the materials without hesitation. Reiko is supporting him.

In addition, two craftsman (smith) golems, whom the old man had thoughtfully invited.
In no time at all, the carriage is ready.
The tires are made of sea dragon leather. The scale-like bumps on the wheels provide excellent grip even on rocks (perhaps the rocks will chip off more than the wheels).

"I guess a small golem engine won't go fast enough."
Hitoshi, who had tried out the Golem, commented, "I guess the small Golem engine doesn't make it go any faster.
The reason why the engine is so small is that it is attached to each wheel. The wheels look a little thick, but in fact, the Golem engine is attached near the axle.

Therefore, it was not possible to install anything too large because it would have been too conspicuous.
Therefore, it is undeniable that there is a lack of torque. The speed is estimated to be about 40 km/h.
Such a statement may be made because a golem horse can easily reach a speed of about 100 km/h if pulled at full speed, but the maximum speed of an ordinary carriage is about 15 km/h. Jin's yardstick is outrageous.

He is unaware of the fact that Jin's yardstick is outrageous.
The golem horse was an adaptation of one that he had made in the past.
However, the light silver parts are now 64 light silver, and the magical muscles have been strengthened, doubling its output.

"It's nice to know that you can also ride."
With a saddle, stirrups, and <
"We'll also add a seat and make it more comfortable. Well, if it comes down to it, we can come back through the warp gate and sleep here."

No one said, "That's not a trip anymore.
Anyway, Super Carriage No. 2 was completed in about two hours.
"Hmm, what is it?"
When Jin heard the old man's suggestion, he immediately understood his intention.

"I see. < it looks low class, huh?"
In short, he wanted to bring along a golem to take care of Jin's personal needs.
"I might even let him be a golem for everyday use."

So, Jin immediately begins to create a golem. Jin loves to make golems and automata.
"I think I'll just use a butler as a basic model.
The material is 18-12 stainless steel. At first glance, it looks like steel, so it is easy to fool.

The appearance is intentionally rugged. The model is the battle golem of the Unifiler. However, I will not make it that rugged. We do not want to be misunderstood.
Its power is slightly higher than that of Butler. His dexterity approaches that of a craftsman (Smith). So he should be able to do a lot of chores.
"Hmmm, I'll have to tell him to look slow in general."

And so the valet golem is born.
His name is ......<

Now most of the preparations are complete.
"...... should get some rest. Reiko, old man, take care of the rest."
Yes, Father.

Tired as he was, Jin asked Reiko and Lao-kun to take care of the rest of the detailed preparations for the trip, and went to bed.

"Well, I'm off."
Jin had come to tell the people of the village of Kaina that he was going on a journey.
"Have a good trip, Jin. Give my regards to brother Rai.

Jin-sama, take care of yourself.
Jin, take care. Come back sometimes!
"Bye, Onii-chan, have a good trip. ......"

Erza, Meane, Martha, and Hannah saw him off, and Jin walked toward the shelter.
He could have used the warp gate in the basement of the workshop, but he decided to walk all the way to the shelter because it would not look good in the picture.
In front of the shelter, the defenders of the village of Kaina, from Land A to Z, were all present.

"Master, this is Lando's unit in charge of protecting the village of Kaina since the 1st.
"Oh, thank you for coming all this way. Well then, take care of things while I'm gone. I'm going out for a while.
Yes, you can count on us. Take care of yourself.

Jin then disappeared into the shelter.

In the Kingdom of Selroa, to the north of the regional city of Bororon, lies an uninhabited wilderness. The name of the wilderness is the Bororon Wilderness.

As far as the eye can see, there are nothing but rocks, some of which are over 50 meters high.
It was almost like a smaller-scale version of the scenery in Arizona in western movies.
At the foot of the huge mass of rock, a large cave opened its mouth.

"So this is the Bororon Wilderness.
"Yes. Yes. This is probably where I was sent the eighth time.
Reiko said.

It was the time when she had searched all over the world for Jin, who had gone missing due to a runaway warp gate, using the same runaway warp gate.
"That time I went into the air and managed to land on the ground, but some of the components of the warp gate were damaged, so I managed to return to the laboratory, but the warp gate had to be disposed of."
However, the location of the Warp Gate was usable, so the old man detected the weak magic power of the Warp Gate and dispatched an Air Force Golem to locate it. Then, they set up the warp gate again.

With such a base, it will be easier to move around the continent. For the time being, however, only Jin and his associates will use them.
For this reason, intermediate points for travel by warp gates are also being considered. For security reasons.

That is what the old man explained to Jin. Jin approved it and said that he would leave it to him. The system will be ready soon.
The new carriage with Jin and Reiko on board drives off to the southwest through the wilderness.
"Hmmm...you put a compass on it too...you're the old man."

The cleverly disguised console for driving the carriage was also equipped with a compass to show the direction of the carriage.
"The roads are marked from east to west, so if we drive toward the southwest, we should hit a bump somewhere, right?"
Jin put the carriage in golem horse mode and drove it at about 50 km/h. He should be able to see the road within an hour.

"Father, we can see it!
Reiko shouted. Reiko's eyes saw the road lying in the distance. Jin slowed down the carriage.
Even Jin knew that it was abnormal for the carriage to run at a speed of 50 km/h. But even so, the speed of the carriage was still too fast.

However, the speed of the carriage was still more than 20 km/h.

The distance between Bororon and Ganes is only about 30 kilometers.

Reinhard and his party's carriage was moving at a leisurely pace compared to the previous day.
After all, they would be crossing the border in a little over a day, and beyond that would be their home country.
"Reinhard, it's a beautiful day, isn't it?

Matheus spoke to Reinhard as he walked his horse alongside the wagon.
"Yes. Spring is in full swing. Doesn't it make you sleepy?"
Reinhard opened the window of the carriage and jokingly said to Matheus,

"Ha, indeed. "Yes, it is true... rocking on the back of a horse makes me sleepy. But even though he is skinny and withered, Matheus is still a soldier. I would never doze off on the back of a horse.
Mateus made a deliberate and exaggerated movement to look around. His face became tense.
"Reinhard, hurry up the carriage."

"What is it?"
"...... an unknown carriage is coming toward us from the wilderness."
Hearing this, Reinhard opens the window and looks out. A smile crossed his face.

"Matheus, that's my friend."
What?
I told you before. A magecraftsman from another land who became my friend on this journey. No, he is now the Honorary Magi Craftsman of the Kingdom of Egelea, in the carriage of Gin Nidor.

"Hey, Reinhard!
Jin himself leaned out of the window of the carriage and waved to me.
"Hey, Jin! Long time no see!"

Reinhardt also leaned out of the window and waved back.
