 Jin and Erza, who had left the insistent greetings and appeals from the nobles to the doppelgänger, watch out for the right moment and successfully switch places in the middle of the reception.



"Are you enjoying yourself, Jin-dono?"

 Knut Amont, the director of the Food Agency, came to Jin's place when he returned. He was particularly interested in the evaluation of the food.

"Yes, thank you, sir.

 Not having eaten another bite, Jin could only give a curt answer.

"I can see how hard you worked for this.

 He tried to add something like "I can see how hard you have been working.

"Oh, I'm so glad to hear that!

 Knut Amonto was in a good mood after hearing Jin's words. He seemed to be a little drunk.



"Excuse me, Mister Jin."

 Then again came Kabanea Gasmo, Undersecretary of the First Ministry of Technology. <

 The time was almost 9:00 PM.

 Then a voice from King Cesar rang out.

"Everyone, the guest of honor, Mr. and Mrs. Kunlun, must be tired by now, so I would like to end the banquet, even though it is already at its climax.

 No one seemed to have any objection to this. But then again, no one would ever complain to the king to his face.

"Well then, , madam, would you like to say a few words to close the day?"

"Ah, yes."

Perhaps < had heard about this, but since he was replaced without such a handover, Jin is a bit puzzled.

 However, it is not so difficult for me to speak at such an occasion, since most of what I have to say is a kind of standard phrase.

"...... Ladies and gentlemen, this is Jin Nido. My wife Elsa and I would like to thank you for the opportunity to host this grand celebration.

 This is the third time for me to visit your country. He had become accustomed to speaking in a certain way.

"......Finally, we have prepared a souvenir for you as a token of our appreciation. Thank you very much for your time today.

 When Jin and Erza bade farewell to each other, there was a round of applause.

"This is an interesting memorial.

"The fact that it is an oval instead of a circle is also unusual.

"It is plated instead of gold, but that doesn't change its craft value.

 The recipients of the commemorative koban were all in awe.

 And it is a side note that no one thought it was a coin from another world.

 The two of us looked tired...we'd only been at it for an hour or so, but we were exhausted. They are mentally exhausted, partly because they don't know many people they can relate to.

There is still tomorrow."

"I wonder why ...... I feel so depressed when I hear words that would normally give me hope."

 They were buried on the sofa in the parlor of the guest room.

"Father, Elsa, the bath is ready.

 Reiko reported. She was preparing the family bath which would be provided in the guest room.

 The family bath was a guest room in the royal castle of Selroa, so it was large enough to accommodate at least 10 people if they pushed themselves a little.

"Well then, let's go in."

"Let's go in." ......

 Jin stood up and Erza followed him.

"......"

 Reiko said nothing.

 And then.

"......!

 An inarticulate voice echoed through the dressing room.

"Ah, so you two didn't notice."

 Perhaps it was because she was tired, but Reiko was a little bit surprised to see the two of them, who had not yet taken a bath together, heading to the changing room side by side.

 They were soaking in the bathtub side by side. They were already red-faced, as if they had been scalded.

 Fortunately for them, the lighting in the bathroom was dim.

 Even so, they could clearly see each other's faces, which was embarrassing for both of them.

 Although they were sleeping together every night, they were not used to seeing each other's naked bodies in such a bright place.

 They got out of the bath without saying a word, but what happened in the bedroom after that is known only to Reiko at .......

 The next day, the 23rd, was a day to relax and enjoy the Kingdom of Celuloa without any events.

 So Jin and Elsa are relaxing in the morning.

"Shall we go out to the town after this?

"Yes, that's a good idea.

 With a little disguise, such as changing the color of Jin's black hair, it would be possible for them to act as a couple.

 We have done this in the Klein Kingdom before, so there should be no problem.

 At the same time, Reiko also changes her hair into a ponytail and her clothes into a town girl's style. Her hair color is changed to brown.

 Elsa also changed her hair to brown and changed her clothes to normal clothes and was about to go to the town.



"<>, at least let me have a guide.

 When King Cesar heard that they were leaving for the town, he flew in. Behind him was a woman dressed as a town girl.

"This is Veronica, one of my knights of the Kingsguard. I'm from this town, so I know it well.

"Veronica. <

 Her shoulder-length red hair hangs down carelessly like a commoner. She reminds me somewhat of Bina when I first met her, but she is almost 170cm tall and has a well-developed body line.

"......It's nice to meet you too."

 Elsa greets Jin for me. The look of frustration in her eyes might be my imagination.

"Well, please be back by 2:00 p.m. We're planning a tea party for 3:00 p.m."

"Okay. Thank you for your concern.

 Hitoshi replied, and the four of them, Hitoshi, Elsa, Reiko, and Veronica, went out to the town, using the service gate of the castle ......, the entrance used by the servants.

"I've been to the Kingdom of Selroa many times, but this may be the first time I've seen Esiah.

 Jin mutters to no one in particular, and Veronica responds.

"Is that so? Then what kind of place would you like to see? I was born and raised here, so I can take you anywhere.

"Well, ...... since you're here, I'd like to see some of the stores that sell household goods. What about Elsa?

"Well, let's see what's in the clothing department."

 Elsa is interested in the fashions of the Kingdom of Selroa.

I understand. The closest one to here is the clothing district. Let's start there. ......"

 Veronica started to lead the group.
