"I asked you here today, of all people, to do me a favor. I have a favor to ask of Miss Elsa.

The Prime Minister began to speak. Jin thought that it did not seem urgent, since his face did not seem to be somber.
"Alois III of the Kingdom of Klein has been in poor health since the summer before.
I had heard about it some time ago, at the end of July, when the hot-air balloon was transferred to the Kingdom of Klein.

The fact that his condition has not improved since then is somewhat worrisome.
"I don't know the details of his condition since the information is from the manaphone, but I heard that he is in such a bad condition that he can't get up."
"...... can't you tell how he looks?"

After thinking for a moment, Elsa opened her mouth.
"Yes. The whites of his eyes are a little yellowish, but I don't know much about it.
"I see. ......"

The possibility of cirrhosis of the liver, which had once afflicted Saki's grandfather, the Marquis Theoderic, came to mind, but there was still too little information to be definitive.
"So, the Kingdom of Klein has asked not only our country but also the Kingdom of Egelea for a good healer.
The healers in the Kingdom of Klein could not cure the king's illness.

"Your Majesty and I both agreed that Miss Elsa, who had healed the Marquis Theoderic so successfully in the past, would be the most suitable healer for our country. How about it, would you go to the Kingdom of Klein as a healer of the Shoro Kingdom?"
"......"
Erza thinks long and hard. When she visited the capital with Jin and Hannah before, she got acquainted with the third princess, Rieschen. Therefore, she has a desire to heal her father, Alois III.

However, the desire to heal is not the same as the ability to actually heal. If I am sent as a representative of the healers of the Shoro Kingdom, Erza's failure will be the failure of the nation.
This was the reason for his hesitation.
"Are you worried about the responsibility if you can't heal her? Then there is nothing to worry about.

The Empress said to Elsa. She looked like she was playing with Hannah, but she was very good at this.
"You came to other countries for help because your own healers couldn't heal you. I would hate it if they hate us just because we can't heal them.
The empress smiled at Erza.

"I'm not forcing you. You can refuse if you don't want to."
"......"
Erza looked slowly around, first at Jin's face, then at Hannah's, then at Reiko's, and finally at Jin's again. And then the words spun out of her mouth.

"I'm going to ......."
"What?"
Please let me go. I'll do what I can do.

"Okay. I'll give you the title of ...... court-appointed healer (Reichsanstalt).
He asked them to leave the day after tomorrow, preferably tomorrow. Jin offered to fly them there himself.
"That would be great. It would be twice as fast as a hot air balloon. We don't have to worry about safety on the way, and Jin seems to have good contacts in the Kingdom of Klein.

Finally, he took Jin and Elsa's hands,
"Jin-kun, take care of Erza. Erza, you have to support Jin-kun, okay?
He sent them on their way with encouraging words.

He sent them on their way.
"Erza, are you sure?"
Jin asked Erza after she left the emperor's office.

"Yes. I'll try. I've always been protected by my brothers Jin and the others. Alois III is the father of Princess Rieschen. If I could fix him, I would."
"...... I see. I'll help you as much as I can. I'll help you as much as I can.
Yes.

"Onii-chan, is Oujisama's father sick?"
Hannah, who was listening to the conversation, asked Jin with a worried look on her face.
"Yes, it seems so. "Yes, it seems so. That's why Elsa is going to see him."

"Really? Onee-chan, please help him get better, okay?"
Elsa smiled kindly and patted Hannah's head.
"Yes. I'll do my best.

I'll do my best." * * * * *
I'm going to go back to the house and get ready for the day.
"I see... that's how it's supposed to be."

Reinhard, who had returned earlier, made a difficult face.
"Alois III's illness seems to be serious.
"Yes. But I wonder if the old man has any information about it?"

The old man was supposed to have sent the fifth column (quinta) to the royal castle of Klein Kingdom.
Jin asks Reiko to contact the old man. The manacam had not been installed yet.
"......"

Reiko was silent for a while. She was communicating with the old man.
"...... father, I have learned some details about Alois III's condition."
Reiko reported that he was suffering from jaundice and that his belly was abnormally distended even though he was losing weight.

"It seems ...... certain that there is something wrong with her liver."
Elsa said with a difficult look on her face.
"The rest is fine. It's not good to have too many preconceived notions.

We'll see for ourselves," Elsa said.
The next step was preparation. Jin planned to take the airship only at the beginning and the end of the trip.
"Well, let's leave by airship, have

This is one of the reasons for Jin's airship.
We agreed to prepare medicines and magical tools for healing on Horai Island, and to take the nurse golem with us.
"What about Barrow and Behle? They can stay here, or they can go back to Kaina village. ......"

"Jin, can I take them with me?"
Jin gratefully accepted Reinhardt's offer.
"Yes. "Well, you can go to Reinhardt's place and learn a lot of things.

So, Barrow and Behle took the opportunity to stay at Reinhardt's house.
Their colleagues (although Meine was barely there) were mostly golem maids and golem butlers, and they thought it would be a good idea to learn a little more about the work that human butlers and maidservants do.
"Okay. I'll go study!"

Both Barrow and Behle were looking forward to working in Reinhard's house.
"Well, what about Hannah?"
Jin asked Hannah whether she would come with him or return to the village of Kaina.

"Well, I want to see you, Ojisama. And I'll tell her to cheer up.
"I see. I see. I'll go with you."
With this, the members were decided. The five members were Jin, Elsa, Hannah, Reiko, and Edgar.

There is still some room on the airship, so after thinking about it, we decide to bring a free sample of desiccant.
He was also considering the possibility of using gravity magic to reduce weight in some cases.
"Okay, I think this is about right. Tomorrow, we will talk to the Prime Minister and leave.

That is what they decided.
The next day Mr. and Mrs. Reinhardt would return to the village of Kurtz, and they would be accompanied by Barrow and Behle.
There would be no problem since there would be Butler D and a golem maid at the house.

That night a small party was held at Jin's house. It was a celebration of Reinhardt's promotion to baron, and a send-off party for Erza. Jin himself was as usual going at his own pace.
"Congratulations again, Reinhard!
"Thank you, Reinhard. Thanks to Jin and the others, we've been able to do this.

Reinhardt then gave Erza a cheer.
"Erza, be strong. Jin, take care of Erza. Support Erza in her decision.
Yes, of course.

And make sure she accepts the oath of bare hands.
What?

Erza's face turns red and she glares at Reinhardt.
"What? What? You didn't inform Jin?"
