"...... Wait a minute. The Warp Gate here can only work with the magical power of the 2nd Magecraft Meister, that is, Master Jin, can't it? Can we use it too?"

 Freddy hesitated to enter the room.

"Well, well, that's a thrill, isn't it?"

 But Eris entered the warp gate room unprotected. Freddy sees this and rushes after her.

"Don't worry. You'll be fine with me and Reiko.

 Jin decided to explain about security.



"Well, the warp gate here is connected to a relay base called Shinkai. There, you will transfer to the warp gate to Horai Island.

 Jin first gives a brief explanation of the system.

"As Freddy said, this warp gate reacts to the waveform of <> magic. It also has an authentication function so that it can't be abused in any case.

 And Rubina, Grina and Marikka have the magic tools to pass the authentication function, so they can pass through without any problem," Jin said.

"By the way, this Reiko was made by , so she has the same magic waveform as me, so she can pass through without any problem," Jin said. ...... Come on, let's go."



"...... what? Oh, wait a minute. ......"

 Before Freddie could fully digest Jin's explanation, Jin and Reiko stepped into the warp gate with Eris and Freddie by their sides.

 In an instant, the group is transported to the warp gate of the .

"This is the Shinkai. The two guarding it will be Battlers 49 and 50."

 Seeing Jin and the others arrive, the two approached and introduced themselves.

"Now, this is the warp gate to Horai Island.

"Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear, let's go..."

Grandmother!

 Without any time for Freddy to stop her, Elise rushed into the warp gate.

 Naturally, nothing happened. The same is true even if Freddy follows him.

 But then Jin and Reiko enter, and if you take their hands .......

"Oh?"

 Eris shouted as she felt the view of the room from inside the warp gate change in an instant.

 The scenery outside had hardly changed at all during the trip from Nido Castle to , but not this time.

 The warp gate room on Horai Island was made of a different material and stone.

 Jin urged Eris and Freddie to go out of the warp gate.

 Five seconds later, Marikka, Rubina, and Grina also arrive.

 Jin then uttered his usual line.

Welcome to Horai Island.

 And the group went out of the institute.

 It is around 10:30 a.m. in Horai Island due to the time difference.

"Well, well, here is Horai Island ...... we finally made it. Thank you, Mr. Jin.

 Elise's eyes were filled with emotion, and there were glowing drops in them.

 But it was short-lived.

"Welcome, Mr. Jin!"

"What?

 Freddie was surprised to see the leaders of the five colored Golem Maids, Soleil, Luna, Lao Tzu, and the leaders of the Army, Navy, Air Force, and Navy Golems all gathered here.

"This, this is ......."

"These are the members of Horai Island, just a few of them."

 Jin said admonishingly to Freddy's pale face.

"Well, well, well ...... well, well, it's nice to meet you."

 Ellis returned them a polite greeting and then turned to Jin,

Jin-san, once again, thank you for inviting us to Horai Island.

 He bowed once again.

 Jin and his colleagues were chatting in the cafeteria of the institute.

 They had planned to show them around Horai Island, but Ellis and Freddy were more impressed than they had expected.

 Freddy doesn't talk much, but I can tell by the look on his face that he is still excited.



"I'm not a god either, and I can't do everything, but I'd be happy to help if I or any of my < descendants are in need."

"Thank you. I'm not in any ...... particular ...... trouble."

 Ellis smiled thinly.

 I have heard that the Nido family of Ellis and Freddy are now settled in Charles, a provincial town in the Kingdom of Klein.

 The tax revenue from the village of Kaina is said to be enough to keep them fed.

 His only worry is that he has not made a name for himself as a magecraftsman for generations.



"It's a shame, because we are the family that produced the <>."

 According to Ellis, it was about 50 years ago that he moved to the town of Charles because he couldn't stay in the capital, Alban, as a result of the whispering of such gossip.

"It was my grandfather's generation," he said.

"That ...... must have been a very difficult time for you.

 Jin had to say.

"But I'm sure Freddy will be a great help to the Nido family from now on.

 At this point, Freddy opened his mouth.

"Jin-sama,...... really, do I have talent? If so,...... or even if you don't, please train me. Please!

 He is as sincere as if he were a different person than when we first met. At first, he thought that his grandmother Elise was being played by unknown people.

 Freddy's parents, Ellis's son and his wife, died early, so he was raised by his grandmother, Ellis. No wonder he became a grandmother's son.

 Ellis, too, had lost his companion early in life.



"Yeah, it's okay. You've got the right stuff. Have confidence."

 Jin nodded his head. Then he said,

"Well, I was going to show you around the island, but I think we should have lunch first.

 He smiled and said, "Well, I was going to show you around the island, but I think we should have lunch first.

"Wow, this, this, this and this ......."

 Rubina's eyes light up as she puts her favorites on the tray.

"Rubina, no one will take anything, so take as much as you can eat first.

"...... yes!"

 Rubina calmed down a little after Marikka's rebuke.

"Well, well, Jin-san's place has an abundance of ingredients, doesn't it?"

 Elise smiled and discreetly, but fully loaded the tray with a variety of food.

"......What is this?"

 Freddy wondered as he looked at the nunawa (water shield) and bamboo shoots,

"It's called nunawa, a special water vegetable of Huso," Gulina told him.

 Gulina told him.

 Junsai is a water plant similar to water lily and grows in freshwater ponds. The buds and the underside of the young leaves are thickly covered with an agar-like mucilage and have a slimy texture.

 As Grina said, it is a specialty of Huso, but it is also cultivated to some extent on Penglai Island.

"I like it." ...... "Well, I'll try it."

 Freddy put a tray of nunawa and bamboo shoots on the tray.

"Oh, I'd love to eat all of it, but I can't stomach that much!"

 Rubina rubbed her stomach with a frustrated look on her face.

"Take it easy. <."

"Yes. ......"

"Jin-san, this takikomi gohan is delicious too."

 Elise ate slowly and elegantly, especially liking the rice cooked with itpo (sweet potato).

"...... this nunawa, it's slimy and delicious."

"Isn't it? It has a very interesting texture.

 Freddy and Grina are drinking the nunawa and the soup with local bamboo shoots and discussing their impressions.

 Jin has already finished eating and is drinking hojicha (roasted green tea).
