 Therefore, Rhodes chose to speak in .



"You are from the Nordic Federation, aren't you?"

 Rhodes nodded, surprised.

"Yes, I am. I am of the Nordic race."]

You are of the clan of the Puppet?

That's right.

 Ah, I knew it, Jin thought. Then he also asked the same question as last night.

"Could it be that you inherited your hair and eyes from Zion?"

"Zion? You know about Grandmother, don't you? After all, you're the one I've been looking for!]

You've been looking for me?

Yes.

 Jin asked, and after taking a sip of his tea, Rhodes began to speak slowly.

"I am the great-grandson of Lord Theon. <
Is Zion ...... well?

 Jin called Zion by a familiar name, and I couldn't help but call him Zion.

"He will be 512 years old this year, but he is still very healthy."

 As a result of advances in public health, nutritional balance, living environment, and medical care, their average life expectancy is about to reach 600 years old.

 By the way, the average life expectancy on the Laurentian continent is currently about 100 years old.

"There is a theory that the free magical element (ether) prevents changes in cells and genes.

 Jin had imagined it too. The higher the concentration of free magical element (ether), the longer the life expectancy tended to be.

 However, it remained a hypothesis, since the effects of sanitary conditions and other factors were too great to be determined, and we still had to wait several decades before we could confirm the effects of the improvements brought about by Jin's knowledge.

"[I see. Good."]

"Well, you'll have to see for yourself." 

What?

Grandmother has asked me to find Jin-dono and bring him to her.

Why would she do that?

"That's right, isn't it?"

 Rhodes told us that Zion had asked him to do this because he remembered a story that Jin had told him when he was younger.

 He did not remember the exact date and time, so Rhodes said he had been in the area for three years.

"It's easy to get out of a tower like this if you want to," Rhodes says with a laugh.

 Rhodes laughs. Knowing the physical abilities and magic of the northerners, Jin nodded his head in agreement.

 However, he said that he had stayed because Zion had told him that Jin would be coming to this country.

"Did you hear anything else?"

"Not much more about it. ......

 Zion did not give many details, he said.

"But he told me a lot about Jin-san. He is a benefactor of the Nordic Federation.]

"Oh, I see."

Mr. Jin, please don't call me that.

"...... all right, Rhodes."




"And so it is."

 Rhodos has been told by Zion to bring Jin to the Nordic Federation when he finds him, but unfortunately he cannot use , so he will have to start on foot.

"I have been ready for this for a long time."

 He had always believed that this day would come. He has no reason to doubt Grandmother Zion's words.

"You can leave right now.

 something like that. I thought it would be a good idea to escape in broad daylight,

"The guards are more strict at night, sir," said Rhodes.

 Rhodes said. Certainly, one would normally think of nighttime as the best time to escape.

 The management may have to increase the number of people to cope with the lack of visibility.

 Especially when it is someone whom they do not want to let go.

 As for Jin, he only has a very small baggage, so he returns to his room to retrieve his baggage, which is light, and brings <> out, and he is ready to go.

We'll use the golem horses for transport.

"Yes, a golem horse."

 I was told that it was a development of the golem horse that Jin had given to him as a gift for transportation in the past.

"Marikka-sama popularized it."

"How was it?"

 Rig Armor asked Jin when he returned to the laboratory.

"Yes, I spent a lot of time with him, he asked me a lot of questions. He's great, isn't he?"

 Jin replied, referring to the pattern he had heard from Rhodes about talking to most of the newcomers.

"Isn't he?"

 Raihg smiles briskly.

 Jin thinks it's a bit of a shame to try to fool such a nice guy.

 But...

"Hmph, you've been slacking off for an hour and a half. Stop talking and get to work!

 Carrion said sarcastically to him.



 It was noon and time for lunch and lunch break.

 After eating lunch with his group members, Jin went back to his room, saying that he would take a short nap in his room.

 He then packed his personal belongings. His personal belongings were packed in one small bag.

 Finally, he cleaned up his room and said goodbye to his room, which had only been there for one day.

"Let's go, Hope."

"Yes, Jin-sama."

 Jin left his room and headed for the place he had promised Rhodes.

 He wondered if he could trust him just a little bit, but after hearing about Zion, Marikka, and Avalon, he convinced himself that at least he was from the Nordic Federation, and that if he did not make a decision here, he would never know when the next opportunity would come along. I convinced myself that if I did not make a decision here, I would never know when the next opportunity would present itself.

 He also thought that even in case of an attack, his <> would protect him from an ordinary attack, and with Hope, he would be able to overcome most of the obstacles.

 I went to the appointed place, about ten meters away from the tower, behind a storage yard, where Rhodoth was waiting for me.

"The soldiers on guard have been put to sleep for a while.

 It seems that they were put to sleep by magic rather than fainting.

"Come on, let's go. Please put these on first.

 He was given a pair of sunglasses. Jin immediately knew what they were.

"These are glasses that allow you to see infrared rays, aren't they?"

 It is not effective against ultraviolet and infrared rays, so if you have a magic tool that converts such infrared rays into visible light, you can see what is going on outside.

 In case you are wondering, the higher compatible < covers the ultraviolet and infrared regions as well.

 Jin put on the glasses, but Rhodes remained naked-eyed. When I pointed this out to him, he said,
