 July 27th.

 Summer is in full swing in the world, and it is also a hot summer in Horai-jima.

 Marcia is in the sea every day, sailing <>, <>, and <>, and studying the hulls of these boats.

 The other members of the were also having fun at sea and climbing Mount Horai.

"By the way, <> is in winter. ......"

 <> on the other side of Ars. Of course it is in the southern hemisphere, so it is winter now.

 However, it is subtropical in latitude, so it is not cold.

 As Jin was thinking about this, something suddenly occurred to him.

"I should take Marikka with me. ......"

 <> of and the current <>, Tester.

  had sworn allegiance only to Marikka.

"Don't tell me you haven't gone out of control now that Marikka is gone. ......"

 <, so I would like to think that this is not the case.

"I mean, when the old man hasn't said anything, there's no problem. ......"

 He was in a hurry and satisfied by himself.

 He imagined that since < had existed without a master for a long time in the first place, it would not so easily become <>.

 Still, Jin thought of going to as soon as possible, just in case. Of course, he took Marikka with him.



 So, he decided to ask Marikka first.

"Old man, where is Marikka now?

"Well, Mount Horai, ...... must be cool."

 Even here in Ars, the temperature drops by 0.6 degrees Celsius when the altitude rises by 100 meters.

 If the temperature is 30 degrees Celsius at 1000 meters above sea level, it is 24 degrees Celsius at 20 meters above sea level. If the institute at 1000 meters above sea level is 30 degrees Celsius, then the temperature at 20 meters above sea level is 24 degrees Celsius.

 Taking advantage of this temperature, they grow crops that prefer a cooler climate at an altitude of around 2000 meters.

 Anyway, Jin decided to go to cool off a bit while he went to call Marikka.

"Reiko, how should we get there?"

"Well, you won't get altitude sickness at about 2,000 meters, so I'll take you there.

 In other words, Reiko is going to carry Jin and fly away with a force field generator.

"That would be the quickest way.

 Jin agreed that using an aircraft would be an overreaction.

"Well, ...... maybe one of these days we can make a personal flying machine, limited to Horai Island and Hale."



 Since Jin is a compound body, no amount of training will increase his muscle mass. Conversely, his muscular strength does not decrease even if he is lazy.

 And it is the same with homunculus. It never deviates from its original setting.



"Well, that's not now. ...... Then, Reiko, please."

"Yes, sir."

 So Jin is carried by Reiko from behind and flies away from the institute. His destination was Mount Horai, the mountain that rises in the center of Horai Island.

"There are a lot of bushes.

 The southwest slope of Horai Island is rocky and has few plants. So, they have put their hands around the area and turned it into a field.

"Wasn't this the place?"

 Jin walks around Mount Horai about 10 meters away from the mountainside. He still cannot find Marikka.

"Father, if you ask the old man to confirm his whereabouts, you will find her soon, won't you?

 Reiko says,

"If we search a little longer and don't find her," says Jin.

 Jin said. Actually, he wanted to enjoy the situation of flying like this.



"Oh, is he there?

 Jin spotted a figure on the east side of Mount Horai and headed toward it. As he approached, he found Marikka, Milowina, Hanako, Topaz 51, 52 and others there.

"Hey!"

 Jin calls out from the sky, thinking he might startle them if they suddenly landed right in front of him.

"What?"

 At first Maricka and Milowina look around, not knowing where they are being called from, but Topaz, who is with them, spots Jin and Reiko and waves to them.

"Oh, it's ...... from the sky. It's Jin-san."

 Milowina also noticed and waved. Marikka, of course.

 Jin and Reiko landed.

"Hi, Marikka, Milowina."

"Jin, Jinsha, what's going on?"

 Even though she has become a homunculus, Marikka has not gotten over her habit of biting when she gets upset.

"No, I just wanted to check something with Marikka. ...... and also, it was a bit hot today, so I wanted to cool off."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


 Jin laughed.

"So you came here directly without the bracelet, Jin-san.


Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com



 Milowina laughs.

"That's why. I mean, what you want to ask Marikka at ...... is ......."

"Yes."

"It's about <> on <>."

 Jin said, "<> only knows that Marikka is gone, but she doesn't know that she's turned into a homunculus.

"I was just wondering if it's all right to keep it like this."

"I'm sure you're right. I have asked many times in my later years to protect and its inhabitants. ......"

"I see. But I'm worried that <> might become unstable, just as <> became unstable when she developed >. ......"

 Marikka nodded at Jin's words.

I understand your concern, Jin-sama. Then let's head for Onogoro Island.

"Are you sure?"

 Jin looked at Marikka and Milowina alternately.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com



"Yes."

"Of course, yes. We have plenty of time."

 Since both of them said it would be no problem, Jin decided to use the transporter to get back to the institute as quickly as possible.

 It is for emergency evacuation, but this time we are going to use it to return to the institute.

 Currently, all Golems and automata in Horai Island are equipped with this device.

 However, since they can only transfer themselves plus alpha, Jin will be taken by Reiko, Marikka and Hanako by Topaz 51, and Milowina by Topaz 52, respectively.

 In an instant, Jin and the others are transported to the laboratory.

 Milowina goes back to her room, and Jin and Marikka start preparing to go to .

 It was not much, however. Just a change of clothes and some personal effects.

 Marikka took a shower and changed her clothes because she felt a little dusty after climbing Mount Horai.



 An hour later, Jin, Marikka, Reiko, Hanako, and the others enter the Warp Gate to Onogoro Island.

 They had passed through the safeguarded relay base , and were on Onogoro Island in less than a minute.



"Come on, let's go!"

"Yes, Master Jin."

 Jin and the others set out to meet Marikka at .
