 The party of Jin and the others was held in harmony.

"Well, in short, you became a homunculus in the order of your ...... lifespan."

 Reinhardt was drunk, and the explanation was given one after the other, so Jin, who was a little confused, again gave his own summary.

"So that's how it is."

 It seems that the other members of the have transferred their consciousness to the homunculus in such a way, leaving Zion and Marikka's slots.

"And since the number of children was too great, they had to manipulate their memories slightly to avoid mental conflicts."

"Hmm, that's what I mean."

"...... didn't I know that back then?"

 He wondered what the Jin thought 400 years ago.

"...... didn't you let your granddaughter know?"

"What?"

"I mean, I was the one who planned to turn the family into a homunculus."

 Hannah says it's all her fault.

"Mr. 700672, Jack helped us to avoid the Master Loss Syndrome. "He helped us to avoid the Master Loss Syndrome.

 In other words, except for Hannah, all of them had ended their lives once, not knowing that they would live on like this.

"But you know what, Jin? I think that resignation in old age,......<, is a kind of self-preservation, a feeling of the spirit being pulled by the body's decline."

 Reinhardt says sincerely.

 In other words, he thinks it's a divine intervention so that he won't have too many lingering regrets at the end of his life.

"Kuhu, when I'm reborn like this, I'm glad I'm alive.

 Saki said the same thing.

"I think that the resignation we feel when we get old is not a lie in itself, but it is probably a combination of our physical age ...... or even our life span.

 In short, Saki said, it may be heaven's way of making sure that we don't have to struggle ugly at the end of our natural life span.

"Interesting theory, isn't it? But it's based on facts, so it has some persuasive power.

 Saki laughed again.

"Anyway, we were dormant until Jin appeared four hundred years later and the old man sent him back to his own time again."

 Reinhard explains again.

"So you mean to say that you have only recently awakened?"

"Well, yes, about four months ago.

And you've been here ever since?

Yes, I suppose so.

 However, Reinhardt said he was a little bored here because of the environment and the fact that it was originally a residential area, but he received regular updates on how Ars was doing, so it wasn't as boring as he thought it would be.

"The old man wasn't sure if it would be safe to let his brother ...... Jin know about us."

 Erza said with an apologetic look on her face.

"Because I couldn't predict what would happen to Brother Jin if he was satisfied with his current situation."

 There was a possibility that he would be satisfied and disappear.

 Jin laughed, "It's like becoming a Buddha," he said, but perhaps he was not wrong.

 If one becomes a ghost because of one's unfulfilled regrets, one becomes a Buddha when those regrets disappear, and the existence of ghosts may also be a trick of free ether, Jin thought.

 In any case, this explanation would explain the old man's past reactions.

 The No. 700672 must also have been stopped from confiding in Jin.

"Well, let's not talk so hard anymore.

 Toa, who seemed to be very ready to talk, shouted loudly, "Yes, yes!

"Yes, yes!

 Saki agreed with her father.

"Today is the day of the Jin family reunion!"

 Marcia said in a good mood,

"We've all been waiting for this day!"

 Rodrigo added a few words.

"Of course we have!"

 Jin agreed with him.

 It would be a bit discouraging to have so much formal talk at a banquet.

 Jin, who is a composite, cannot get drunk at all, but since he does not drink much and can get drunk from the atmosphere, it is not so much of a problem for him.



"Come on, come on, Elsa, you should be closer to your master!"

 Marcia pushed her out and Erza sat down on Jin's right side.

"Hmmm, that's nice..."

 Berthe is also pouring Reinhardt a glass of wine.

"Ah, it's nice to have a partner, isn't it?

 Vivienne stirred the wine with a murmur.

 There is no Lukor, I guess that's what they mean.

 The party was starting to get chaotic, but everyone's faces were cheerful.

 This may be because they are no longer tied to the floating world.

 Until now, they have been bound by reality to a greater or lesser extent, or even to a greater extent.

 Now that they are free in this way, they are probably thinking of enjoying the advantages rather than thinking of the disadvantages.

(Many of them were in positions with more responsibility than others. ......)

 In a sense, Jin thought inwardly that this might be the mindset of businessmen who have retired and are now thinking about their second life.

"A second life, huh? ......"

 He said out loud without thinking,

"A second life, I like that!"

 Saki, who had a sharp ear, heard it.

"A second life, that's exactly what I'm talking about!

 Reinhardt agreed.

"Cheers to a second life!

 Toa shouted loudly. They are like a bunch of drunks.

 Hannah, Licia, and Milowina, who don't drink much, have already evacuated.

 Still, it is a relief that there is no one who has a bad drinking habit. It was all merry drinking.

 Fed up with dealing with drunks, Jin invited Elsa to join him and quietly got up from the table.

"......It really has been a long time."

"...... hmm."

 On the north side of the mansion there was a separate house, connected to the house by a corridor.

 Erza led Jin toward it.

"......Kai kaitta" (I'm here, I'm here).

 Leaning on Jin's shoulder, Elsa looked up at him.

 The noise of the feast does not reach the distance, and it is quiet.

"It's like a dream come true to be able to see everyone ...... like this, especially Elsa.

"Me too.

"A second life, I guess. ...... I'm looking forward to it.

I'm glad to see you too.

 It's quiet as soon as you close the sliding door. Reiko, perhaps sensing our presence, did not follow us.

 For the first time in a long time, Jin and Elsa spent time alone together.
