Jin pondered for a while when he heard King Klein's wish as a father. Looking at the somber expression on his face, I could tell that he deeply regretted his decision.
"Yes. ......"
There were many things to think about, but I could feel the father's feelings for his daughter. The choice not to do so would undoubtedly make Tia a gift, but it is Jin who does not say it out loud.

"...... understand."
"Oh, thank you!"
Alois III's face turned happy when Hitoshi agreed to the gift.

It was 2:30 in the afternoon. Jin decides to rent the workshop where he made the golem and the sword before.
Reese and Jessica Norton, the captain of the Kingsguard female knights, are present.
"What are you making, Jin?

Reese peeks in with interest. Jin looks back for a moment in front of the bronze block and says, "Well, you'll just have to watch.
"Well, you'll just have to watch. ......Elsa, watch closely too."
He then invoked his engineering magic.

"Brother Jin's work is, as always, magnificent."

"Mm, that's Jin, isn't it?"
With the three different impressions as background music, Jin proceeds with the processing.
"Hmm? I've seen this shape before."

Several cylinder-shaped parts. A lever-like handle. A piston. And a valve.

Elsa was the first to notice. Yes, Jin was making a pump.

"That's already in widespread use in the town. ......?"
This is Jessica.
"Umm, but if Jin went to the trouble of making it, then it must be something different, right?"

Jin laughed back at Reese's last words.
"Bingo. This is a
The Raglan Company had introduced the pumps. And now, Jin had created a push-up pump.

"Proof is better than an argument, I'll use it."
After checking the pump with

The water was still in the bath, but Jin dipped the pump into the water without any concern.
"Now, let's see what this pump is ......."
Reiko was holding the pump body, and Jin moved the handle.

After moving the handle a few times, water came out from the outlet, which must have accumulated inside. Seeing this, Jin turned the outlet upward and moved the handle more vigorously.
"Oh?
Then the water spurted out and reached the ceiling.

"......, that's what I mean."
"Jin, Jin-dono! It is indeed a pump, isn't it? You're not using water magic, are you?
Jessica asked hurriedly.

"Yes, of course. As you can see. If we could make a bigger one, and have a golem operate it, we could make the water fly as far as 10 or 20 meters."
Erza had noticed this and didn't say anything, but Rhys heard Jin's words and realized their usefulness.
"Jin, Jin! You will give me this ......, won't you? You don't mind if I make one just like it, do you?"

Jin nodded.
"Yes. Put it to good use."
Princess Rieschen nodded again and again with tears in her eyes.

"Mm-hmm. Thank you,......, Jin,......."
A tool that can make water fly far away without using water magic. That means it can be used to extinguish fires.
Originally, Jin was concerned about the development of airships using

This is one of them.
Jin had no particular complaints about having the Kingdom of Klein take the lead in promoting fire extinguishing equipment using push-up pumps.
"Father!"

Princess Rieschen ran down the corridor to the King's office and reported quickly what Jin had made.
"...... What a surprise!"

"Jessica, take Rieschen and hurry to the Minister of Magic. Stop them from altering Tia."
He then hurriedly wrote up a document and held it out to her. Jessica took it and saluted.
"Ha!"

Jessica, who had been watching the princess since she was a little girl, had been dissatisfied with the decision. And now her dissatisfaction was about to be put to rest.
Reese is on his way to the technical building, which is under the jurisdiction of the Minister of Magic. His face is full of joy.
Arthur, the second prince, looks doubtful and asks Jessica, who comes later, why she is here. Jessica gave a brief explanation and followed the princess.

Prince Arthur watched her back,
"Well, you made it in time. I'm glad to hear that.
He said to himself.

"......Well, I don't know how to take it apart. ......"
At the far end of the technical building, in the laboratory under the direct supervision of the Minister of Magic, Tia was lying completely naked on a workbench.

The one groaning in front of Tia is the Minister of Magic, Clarotho Vados Keris.
Covering the surface of Tia's body is a magical skin that was made by Houraishima and re-covered by Jin.
The structure of the skin is so dense that it could not be processed by half-baked magic.

"Master Clarotho, are you sure you want to dismantle it?"
Harvey Sotos Flegrode, the second in command, asked hesitantly.
"I heard that this automaton belonged to Her Highness Princess Rieschen..."

"You idiot! That's why I had to replace the control core to prevent any information about the royal family from being leaked.
Yes, but ......
Replacing the control core means that we have to teach them even the basic operation from scratch. Wouldn't that make it too late for the commemorative ceremony?

When Undersecretary Harvey said this, Minister Clarotho snickered.
"Hmmm...that's what you're worried about. This automaton is as valuable as an artifact. Even if it does not move, it can be a tribute.
"Tribute? It's a gift, right?

Yes, it is. It's a gift, but it's worth enough.
If so, could we just erase the control core and leave the exchange to the other party?
The assistant who was standing nearby suggested. But the Minister of Magic denied it.

Clarotho was about to say this when the door to the lab opened with a bang.
"Tia!"
Princess Rieschen rushes to the door. Jessica Norton, the captain of the female Kingsguard, follows.

Hence, Tia wakes up, reacting to the key word she uttered.
"Tia! Father has rescinded his previous order! You are now and will always be my own personal automata!"
Yes, Princess. It's a pleasure, Your Highness.

Rieschen and Tia hugged each other.

The Minister of Magic is looking at them discouraged. Surprisingly, the rest of the researchers look relieved.
Jessica holds up the document she received from Alois III.
"I am sorry, Master Clarotho. Here are the orders your majesty gave me. Tia is yours as she was before.

Tia is now Princess Rieschen's property as before.
As a token of gratitude, Jin was presented with a golden vessel and an adamantite vessel, each containing a mysterious liquid, which had been found in the former Leonard's Kingdom some time before.
"Six million toles of gold and 100 million toles of adamantite. That's very generous for the Kingdom of Klein.

Elsa commented.
It is a very generous gift from a tight budget. That is how much Alois III must have appreciated the gift as a father.
Seeing his fatherly face, Jin was glad that he had visited.
