As the organizer of the gathering, Jin was in a room at the

Gloria and Fritz were present. Elsa and Reiko were also present.
"I was just there to stop them. When I came in, it looked like a fight was about to start.
Fritz says.

And Gloria.
"...... it's my fault, after all."
And then she said something like.

"I heard they use good swords in Franz. I just asked him to show me. ......
Gloria was at a loss for words.
"And you were accused of that?"

Jin asked, imagining that Gloria nodded silently.
"I see. ...... Gloria, many soldiers do not like to show their equipment to other people, even people from other countries, for no reason at all. You should be careful."
Fritz advised. Gloria nodded again.

"...... I know. But the atmosphere here has made me feel like I've known them for a long time. ......"
"Well, I don't know.
Well, I don't know, but I guess that's the way it is at a world conference.

The rest is down below...... no, I'm sure the public sentiment is too."
Jin muttered a little darkly.
"...... maybe."

Elsa agrees.
"That's one aspect that can't be helped. Our two kingdoms, Klein and Franz, have been at each other's throats for years. Skirmishes, but still there are casualties. That's more than 100 years."
The anger of families and colleagues naturally turns to the other side. It will be several decades after the war is over before such resentment disappears.

Jin recalled that in Japan, where he had lived before he was summoned, there were countries close by that still talked about the wars of the past.
The resentment of people is very deep-rooted.

"Well, can we go now?"
Fritz is about to sit up. Then Elsa called out to him.
"Ah, brother, would you like to have dinner with us anyway? Gloria, if you would like to join us.

I'd like to have dinner with you, too.

At Elsa's suggestion, it was decided that Jin, Elsa, Fritz, and Gloria would have dinner together.
Since this evening's meal will be delivered to each room as requested, there should be no discomfort if the two of them are not in their rooms.
"......What is this?"

Each person is supposed to order his or her favorite dish in each room, but here, all four of them have a menu prepared by Jin.
"......It's a little creepy. ......"
The sushi on the line was <

The sushi items were
Of course, the names of the ingredients are annotated with something close to <......>, except for the eggs, but they are tasty enough.
They are served with soy sauce and green tea, of course.

The sushi was developed just before the World Congress, and they were the first to try it outside of the Jin family.
I wanted to serve it to all the participants, but I decided not to this time because of the issue of likes and dislikes.
Instead, these two men, who knew each other, were the subjects of the experiment.

"Brother, this is how we eat."
Elsa picks up a piece of sushi with her hand, dips it in soy sauce, and takes a bite.
"Well, that's an interesting way to eat, isn't it?"

"But it's a little bit unbecoming to eat it with your bare hands, isn't it?"
Fritz was amused, while Gloria raised her eyebrows a little.
In response, Hitoshi said,

"Mmm, this is delicious!
While Gloria and Jin are arguing, Fritz is eating several mouthfuls of sushi.
"Do you like the taste, brother?

"Yes, it's delicious!"
From Fritz's reaction and the items he has eaten, it seems that he has no likes or dislikes and enjoys the taste of fish, squid, prawns, and other items.
Gloria, on the other hand, was watching how well Fritz was eating and was slowly putting the sushi into her mouth. The dish was an egg.

"......!"
After taking a bite, Gloria looked surprised, chewed and swallowed in a hurry.

"Mister Gin! This is delicious! Just the right amount of sourness with a hint of sweetness! I didn't know rice could be eaten this way!"
Surprisingly, Gloria had tasted rice before, when she had traveled with Fritz to the Kingdom of Selroa.

"I'm glad you liked it."
Jin said, while Fritz had already finished most of his meal.
"Do you want another one, brother?"

"Yes, this white fish is delicious. And the yellow sweet one.
He seemed to like the flounder and the omelet.
"Hmm, is it safe to eat fish raw?"

Gloria knows that her country's king had been infected by a parasite ...... like Dystoma, so it's not surprising.
"Don't worry about that. I've already taken care of it with magic."
As for Jin, he had magically inspected all of them and had visually inspected all of them by the golem maids before sending them out just in case.

Jin also eats a piece of toro-modori or flatfish-modori right in front of Gloria.
"...... got it."
Seeing Gloria's reluctance to eat, Jin thought that it might be better to use heat-treated ingredients.

The Kingdom of Klein has no sea, so it is not customary to eat raw fish. The King of Klein, Alois III, is a changed man.
On the other hand, the Shoro Kingdom has the sea, Elsa and Fritz's family home, and Lake Tosmo near the capital, so it was easy to be accepted because of the custom of eating fish.
(I see, there was no one from the Klein Kingdom in the family, was there?)

(Oh, I don't remember anyone from the Klein Kingdom in the family...) Jin thought to himself as he gazed at Gloria who was slowly eating her sushi.
"By the way, you're growing your hair long, aren't you? You have beautiful hair, it looks better on you.
"Ngghh!"

Gloria was so surprised by Fritz's sudden question that she seemed to choke on her sushi.
"Please have some tea."
Jin points to a cup of tea that is already cold enough. Gloria drank it in a hurry.

"Are you all right, Gloria? What are you so upset about?
Gloria looked at Fritz with some tears in her eyes because she was sobbing.

Jin, watching her, put his own situation on the shelf and sighed secretly.
After dinner, he took a breather and said, "I'll be fine.

After dinner, Jin took a rest and went to the bath.
It was not a private bath, but a public bath.

According to the previous reports, no one had used it. It seemed that everyone was using the private baths in their rooms.
Fritz walks up behind Jin, rubbing his stomach. Then came Elsa and Gloria.
Of course, the men and women are separated, so they are separated in the changing room.

"Mr. Fritz, by the way, are there any guards today?"
"Yes, His Majesty has personally given me the night off. I've seen how safe it is here in the last few days, and I'm also ......"

"...... that's the island where Erza was sheltered."
Fritz looked a little embarrassed as he said this. He must have been remembering how hard he had been on Erza in the past.
Hearing this, Jin understood that the Fritz of today was the one whom Erza adored.
