"Don't scold her too much. It's my fault too. I didn't mean for it to happen.
Amanda said in an apologetic tone, "I didn't mean for this to happen.
I didn't think Rubina and the others would make such good progress, and it's my fault for not telling them that I would have said <>," Jin said.

Rubina was finally released.
Meanwhile, Neige and Rouge were also warned by

"I admit that we tried to do this on our own. But you shouldn't have done it in such a stubborn way.

When the sun had completely set, the cleanup was finally complete.
"So, I already have a general idea, but I'd like to ask you something.
"...... understands."

Rubina began to explain in a halting manner.
"I see, you finished modifying the drive system earlier than expected, so you wanted to add the control system as well," she said.
"...... yes."

"That's why I wanted to put it together with the others."
That's why I didn't have the magi crystals ready," Jin said.
"...... sorry."

"No, that was my mistake. I should have explained the remodeling plan to you first, and more importantly, Rubina's work speed was much faster than I expected. That's impressive. You can be proud of that."
"...... Really?"
"Yeah, really."

"......, that's great."
"Come on, cheer up."
Rubina is not the kind of person who stays in a drowsy mood, Jin said and patted her head.

"Well, it's late, but let's go home and have dinner first.

Since Rubina, the mood-maker, was quiet, the dinner was somewhat quieter than yesterday.
After dinner, I took a bath for a change.

After getting out of the bath, Jin drank some fruit juice.
Then we went out on the porch to enjoy the evening breeze of a spring evening.
It is a warm enough night even in late March, since the house is located on the Tropic of Cancer.

Meanwhile, Marikka, Amanda, Rubina, Neige, Rouge, and the others seemed to have gotten out of the bath.
Jin called to them and they sat down on the porch to cool off.
Reiko brought some cold barley tea.

Seeing that Rubina is finally feeling better, Jin decides to continue the conversation.

...... I didn't know there was such a thing.
According to Rubina, the history of magical engineering is divided into seven periods: the pre-Adriana period is called the dawn of magical engineering, the Adriana period is called the golden period, the period after that until the Magic Wars is called the mature period, the period from the Magic Wars to Jin is called the decline period, the period from Jin's time to the rise of the Magic League is called the middle period, and the period when the Magic League is at its height is called the dark period.

And Neige, who is related to the Origin, was able to open the door.

Neige affirmed.
"I had a feeling that something was wrong.
