　After putting the twins down for a nap, Jin and Erza were talking in a whisper at a little distance from the twins so as not to wake them up.

　Reiko was by the twins' side, just in case.

"I'm talking about His Majesty. The abdication ceremony will be held on May 1st this year ...... or rather next month, right?"

"Yes, indeed."

　Jin refers to His Majesty Gerhard Hilde von Rubies Shawlo, the Emperor of the Shawlo Kingdom, and His Highness refers to Ernst Shawlo, the Crown Prince.

　Both Jin and Elsa had already met Crown Prince Ernst many times, and both of them had already evaluated him as a suitable, if somewhat impolite, person to be the next emperor of Japan.

　Jin guessed that his nephew, who was only 15 years old, would not be so irresponsible as to suddenly entrust all political matters to his nephew, even though he had come of age.

"I think His Majesty would do that.

　And Erza also agreed with Jin's guess.

"I am indebted to His Majesty to the extent that I can never repay him. ......"

　Jin has done more than anyone else could have done, but he is unaware of it, which is typical of him.

"I was thinking that I would like to present His Majesty with a golem or an automaton.

"I see. Then I think an automaton would be good for His Majesty.

"I see."

　<, except for the followers of visitors, there are no human-like automata in principle, and all the people working there are golems. So, the gift to Fritz and Gloria is a maid<.

　However, there is no such restriction in giving a gift to a female emperor.

　The female emperor, who had to assume the position of emperor, was not allowed to have children and was 56 years old.

"She also said that Reiko was cute, didn't she?

　Jin thought that an automata doll in the shape of a girl would be the best choice.



The idea of a girl automaton was still the right one, Jin thought.

　Once the plan was decided, Jin acted quickly.

　The maid golem is based on Horai Island. The material used is mainly light silver, making it light, and the exterior is a subdued copper color.

　At first glance, it appears to be made of bronze.

　In appearance, it is not so different from that Jin donated to before.

　Its physical strength is about a quarter of that of the five-colored golem maids of Horai Island, but it still has more than five times the basic performance of an ordinary golem. Even so, it has more than five times the basic performance of an ordinary golem.

　And the automata for the female emperor.

　Jin works more carefully than usual. And Elsa helped him.

　The size of the doll is the same as that of Reiko.

　However, the power of the doll is reduced to about four times that of a human being at most. The speed is the same. The reason for not making them as fast as humans is to protect the Empress in case of emergency.

　These days, a little characterization can be done by default.

"I'd like to keep it maintenance-free for the next 200 years or so."

　Jin thinks it's possible since it's not used hard.

"I wonder if the face will look like this?"

　Elsa used the faces of the emperor and the crown prince as references, and sculpted them to look a little like them.

　The idea was that if they looked more or less like her, she would feel more familiar with them.

　The hair color was dark brown and the eyes were brown to resemble theirs.

　In fact, there was another tape, which was about 10 times longer than this one, but I read the shorter one at the signal of the master of ceremonies.

　I guessed that it was because the speeches by the representatives of each country were longer than expected and the time was getting tight.

　At the same time, he thought about the difficulty of keeping the meeting on time.

　The greeting was concluded by the presentation of a bouquet of flowers by a representative ...... of the citizens, a boy and a girl of about 10 years old.
