Jin found something in a corner of the store. It was unmistakably a
"A ...... refrigerator?"
"Oh, Jin-san, you're a man of taste. It's a magical tool I've finally acquired. It is sold by the Count family of the Kingdom of Egelea. ......"

It seems that Count Kuzma is sponsoring the production and sales of this product.
Jin recalled the red-haired Magi Craftsman, Bina.
(I wonder if they are about to get married. I'll ask them when I get a chance).

Jin, who had been reminiscing fondly about Bina and the magical tools he had made in Breeland, came to himself at the sound of Roland's voice.
"Oh, no, I was just thinking..."

"Oh, no, I was just thinking. So, this is the water heater. It's quite well made. I'm currently researching to see if I can make the same thing."
Since there is no such thing as a patent, of course this kind of thinking will come up. Well, it seems that the market will not be covered, so Jin does not intend to complain about it.
"If you have any questions, may I ask Mr. Jin?

Jin smiled and nodded at Roland, who said such a thing without knowing that Jin was (one of) the producer.
I hope you will stay with us.
Roland and the others refused his request to stay overnight, and Jin came back to Horai Island.

"Well, it's going to be ...... difficult to get ready then.
"Brother Jin, what's wrong?"
While I was alone in the control room, Erza suddenly appeared in front of me.

"Hmm? Elsa. I'm taking Zion and the others to the Kingdom of Franz tomorrow, and I'm wondering what I should wear.
"Oh, um, about that..."
Erza knew that Zion had exposed his naked body to gain Jin's trust, since he had seen it.

"But tomorrow? You were talking about that?"
"Oh, yes. So I went to Reinhardt and the Raglan Trading Company in the Klein Kingdom and asked them about the Franz Kingdom. It seems like a tyrannical government, and the nobility seems to have a lot of power, so this is the time to emphasize my status as a baron, but I was wondering which country I should call myself a baron. ......
Jin explained that he was going to start out as a baronet and not advertise that he was a Magecraft Meister.

"If ...... that's the case, you should be in the Shoro Kingdom."
Elsa expressed her opinion. The Kingdom of Klein is out of the question because of its bad relationship with the Kingdom of Franz. The Kingdom of Egelea is not on good terms with the Kingdom of Cerroa, which is the suzerain state of Egelea, so it is best to avoid it.
The Shoro Kingdom is neither good nor bad.

Erza concluded, "Since we have diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Cerroa, they should not be seen as an enemy.
"I see. Then I'll visit you as the Baron of the Kingdom of Shoro.
"Yes. I'll be his sister.

Wait a minute. Are you going too?
Jin is surprised by Erza's comment.
"Yes. I'm going with you because I'm not sure about the rituals of the Shoro Kingdom if I'm alone.

He had a good reason to go. Jin couldn't say no to the meeting.
I understand. Make sure you take your guard ring with you.
"Yes."

Thus, Jin, Reiko, Elsa, Edgar, Zion and Lucas. And so, Jin, Reiko, Elsa, Edgar, Zion, Lucas, and the rest of the group headed for the Kingdom of Franz.
The next day, August 7. In front of Nido Castle in the village of Kaina.
It was a cloudy morning, and it looked as if it would rain at any moment.

"Well, we are going to be myself, Reiko, Erza, Edgar, and you, Sion and Lucas.
Lucas is a little wary of Edgar, whom he has never seen before, although he has seen Erza before.
"Edgar is Elsa's guard automata," Jin explained.

As Jin explained, Zion sounded impressed.
"Hmmm... so the apprentice of the Magecraft Meister must be quite skilled.
"That's what I thought. Now, are you ready?

"We're not nearly ready. How are we going to get to, what's it called, the Kingdom of Franz? ......?
We'll fly.
"What?"

Jin explained to them.
From the village of Kaina, it is approximately 300 kilometers in a straight line to the border town of Stolsk in the Kingdom of Franz and the Kingdom of Klein. The distance can be covered by airship in about three hours.
Strangely enough, there is no road connecting the Kingdom of Celuloa, the sovereign kingdom, and the Kingdom of Franz, a dependency of the Kingdom of Celuloa. To get to the Franz Kingdom, you have to go through the Kingdom of Klein.

The old man, seeing that there must be a secret road, instructed the reinforced fifth column (Quinta) to check it out.
"The airship ...... was also made by the magical engineer 《Magicraft Meister》?"
The Magi had a record of the use of a hot airship by the human race during the Magical Wars 300 years ago, but this was beyond their imagination.

Since then, a few improvements have been made and the payload capacity has been increased. Specifically, the air sacs have been enlarged to increase buoyancy.
"Yeah, this will get us to the border. We can come and go as we please within the Kingdom of Klein. From there we will take the wagons.
The carriage was a golem-horse carriage that had been sent by the transporter.

The airship takes off from Nido Castle. The airship takes off from Nidou Castle, using

is a line from Zion. It is inevitable that we cannot see the outside at all since we do not release the invisibility until we reach a high altitude.
But when you remove the invisibility, you will be able to say.
"Wow, I'm on cloud nine! I'm above the clouds!"

When you move into horizontal flight, the
Zion looked down from the high altitude and was excited and excited.
"Jin is ...... a Magecraft Meister!"

Lucas, too, was not showing his excitement, but it was obvious from his flushed face that he was excited.
Even Elsa, or rather Jin, always finds the view from the sky refreshing.
The airship flies over the endless sea of clouds.

Soon the clouds disappear and the sky below becomes more visible. Jin lowers the altitude a little. This allows him to see the surface of the earth even more clearly.
It's a big land, isn't it? I knew there were a lot of people. ......
Xiong said as he looked at the fields and settlements drifting behind him.

The airship, which had been further sped up by the wind ward, arrived at Storsk in about two hours. The airship landed in a deserted suburb of Storsk, deploying invisibility.
A golem carriage had been sent there by a transporter. The driver is, of course, Mr. Steward.
"Come on, let's change!"

Jin points out, but Zion looks puzzled.
Jin ...... what is this?
"Is this my carriage?"

"No, but... so why is it here?"
No, it's a trade secret.
Trade secret?

Well, maybe one of these days.
......"
After such an exchange, the group changed to a horse-drawn carriage. 10 minutes later, Storsk came into view.

Strsk still bears the scars of the conflict that took place in April this year.
As a border town, it is surrounded by a wall, but the wall is crumbling in some places and has not been repaired yet.
Jin's carriage was approaching a gate on the outskirts of the town.

"Stop!
A soldier of the border guard of the Klein Kingdom stopped the carriage before the gate.
Jin leaves the carriage and shows his entry/exit permit. Of course, he is wearing a Shoro aristocratic coat.

"...... sure. You may pass!"
The royal permit has an extraordinary effect, and with just one glance inside the carriage, the soldier grants permission to pass.
"...... a little lenient?"

Erza muttered to herself after she had been away from the soldiers for a while.
Even though there was a permit, it was negligent of the border guards to issue it without checking the passengers.
This was the opinion of Erza, who had been on a diplomatic trip with Reinhardt.

"I guess they are really short of personnel. ......"
Jin also recalled the passport control procedure he went through when he entered the Shoro Kingdom from the Kingdom of Cerroa.
After passing through the stone gate, he was finally in the Kingdom of Franz.
