"Yes, first of all, I'd like to talk about the accident that happened in the Kingdom of Selroa. ......"

The success of Jin and Erza, who were more or less related to the Shoro Empire, was a cause for celebration.
"And now, is there anything else?"

Since official diplomatic relations had not yet been established, even if, hypothetically, he was allowed to freely enter and leave the border, he was afraid to go to the Land of Mitsuho without permission.
"All right, I'll let you go through the formalities. By the way, the day before yesterday, Tohr Eschenbach came to ask for the same kind of permission, are you going with him?"
"No, I don't intend to. No, I don't think they are going on their honeymoon as well.

The emperor looked at her with a momentary pause, as honeymoons are not customary, but she immediately understood what he meant and smiled.
"Oh, that's what I meant. That sounds like a very nice custom. A celebration, a vacation, and just the two newlyweds. ......"

"So, who's going to Mitsuho? Jin-kun and Elsa, just the two of you?"
Flora's face became more and more austere as she was now completely frank in her address.

"Hannah...... oh, that pretty girl. And Saki ...... because Toa is with Stearina, I suppose."
The emperor nodded knowingly.
"Is that okay with you, Erza?"

Erza, suddenly asked to speak, replied with a puzzled look on her face.
"Uh, yes."

Jin answered immediately. I am confident that we can mass-produce it in Horai Island as long as we can get the sample.
"One more thing, if possible, I would like one of you to go with the title of belonging to the Shoro Kingdom.
