"Thank you, Jin-sama, for your help."

 On the evening of the 18th, Jin took Zion and his son to the village of Kaina. Of course, they were going to Nido Castle.

 Princess Rieschen wanted to come too, but this time she was on official business. They gave up in tears.



But this building is amazing.

 Lorona was amazed when she saw Nido Castle for the first time.

 Jin is happy to have more opportunities to use Nido Castle these days.

"It's a peaceful place, isn't it?

 Rorona commented on the appearance of the village of Kaina.

"Thank you very much.

 Jin, the lord, thanked her for the recognition, which he himself wished he had received.

Jin-sama, you take good care of this village, don't you?

"Yes, I do. This village is my hometown.

 Jin led the three of them to the castle, exchanging such conversation.

 Erza returned to the castle ahead of the others and prepared the guest room.

 When Jin entered the drawing room, the preparations had just been completed.

"Please come this way first.

"Thank you, Miss Elsa."

 Rorona thanked him on behalf of the three of them. But...

What kind of furniture is this?

 What had been prepared was a kotatsu.

 Yes, Erza had prepared a set of kotatsu in the guest room.



 The guest room at Nido Castle has a Japanese-style room and a Western-style room.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 The Japanese-style room is equipped with a kotatsu, which can be used as a sunken kotatsu.

 When one of the tatami mats is removed, a half-tatami-sized horigotatsu is revealed. You can re-lay the half tatami mats that are missing.

 Place the kotatsu stand, cover it with a kotatsu futon, and put a board on top. The final touch is to place a bowl of citrons in place of the tangerines.

 Even though it is March, the mornings and evenings in Kaina Village are still cold, so the kotatsu is very useful.



"This is called a kotatsu. ......"

 Jin explained.

"Oh, so this is a heating device like that. Thank you very much.

"Oh, this is nice.

"It's easy on the legs, too. I like it, Jin."

 Jin was relieved to hear that all three of them liked it.

 There is another type of kotatsu that does not have a sunken kotatsu, but we decided that this one would be easier for the three of them to use.

 Incidentally, Hitoshi prefers the orikotatsu to the sunken kotatsu.

 The reason is that he can hide under the kotatsu and take a nap.

 But since Radeous and Rorona have never lived on tatami mats, they decided to use the sunken kotatsu.



"Citran, it's delicious!

 Zion immediately peels and eats it.

"Oh, really. Jin-sama, it's delicious!

 Rorona also started to eat.

"Ha-ha, you can relax today."

"Thank you very much."

 Radeous thanked her on behalf of the family.

"If you need anything else, please let this butler B know.

Thank you for everything, sir.

"Dinner will be ready in an hour, so don't eat too much," he said.

 He nailed Zion, who was reaching for his second citran, and Jin left the guest room.

"Erza, thank you for preparing."

 Jin checked on Elsa in her private room.

"You're welcome.

Now we're going to have dinner.

The golem maid will take care of that. ...... Oh, why don't you go take a bath? I'm already in. ......

"I see. I've already taken a bath. I'll take a bath."

 There are two bathrooms in Nido Castle and a hot spring in the village of Kaina. Or you can go to Horai Island through the warp gate and take a bath.




"Let's take a bath in Horai Island today.

 So Jin moves to the warp gate.

"The food at Jin's place is delicious, isn't it?

 Zion, who is getting used to the village of Kaina, is enjoying the rice with relish.

 The menu is very typical: rice, miso soup, oshinko (pickles), grilled fish, fried eggs (sweet), meat topopo (potatoes), and hamburger steak.

This hamburger steak is delicious.

 Lorona seemed to like the hamburger steak.

Lorona seemed to like the hamburger. "I like the sweet omelette," she said.

 Radeous seemed to like the sweet tamagoyaki with lots of sugar very much.

 Jin was pleased to have his favorite miso soup with fried bean curd for the first time in a long time.

 And, over a cup of hojicha tea, they discussed their plans for the next day.

"I'm going to let you relax...do you have any suggestions?"

 Since no one from the kingdom was present, Jin spoke as usual.

"That's fine. Kaina village, was it? I'd like to take a leisurely look around."

"Yes, of course. It would be very helpful for us.

"Oh, I'll show you around, then."

 Theon has visited the village of Kaina many times, which is why he makes this suggestion.

"Oh, that's a good idea.

"Well, I guess we can have breakfast tomorrow around 8:00 a.m.".

 With a rough plan in place, we disbanded for the night.

 Jin and Zion decided to relax on their own.

"So I'll see you tomorrow, Jin."

"Yeah. Theon, you take care of it.

"I'll take care of it!"

 Theon is a member of the Jin family and knows how to use the facilities at Nido Castle.

 Jin felt confident leaving the job to Zion.
