Marlene was surprised but pleased with his early return and got up to go greet him.

Elsa asked him to move and went to the front door to greet her brother, thinking that the parlor would be a better place for a proper greeting than the living room.
"Welcome home."

"Oh, yeah. I've been working hard to get ...... a vacation. ......"

"Yes, but..." She says, "No... You're obviously exhausted. At this rate, he will collapse. This is my advice, not as your sister, but as the Reichsanstalt.

"Yeah, well, ...... I'll be careful."

I was going to ask him to give me a lift by airship if possible, but he wasn't there that conveniently.
"......"

"Oh, right."
"Yeah? You also got a call from Butler D and rushed to the site, didn't you?
Yes, yes, but I didn't hear anything about lending you the Golem car.

It seems that Moritz had stopped by at Jin's house in Leuthart.
Erza quickly puts the timeline together in her mind.

Moritz learns of it in Miyagi at around 10:00 a.m. He immediately asks for leave. He immediately requests leave.
Six days. The permission was granted at around 11:00 a.m. He was told that it would be for three days from the 7th to the 9th.

Erza rushes to get ready. Jin also learned of this at the same time (or so he thought), and asked Erza to send him to the castle when she had a communication meeting with the deus ex machina.
Erza hurries to get ready.

7th. Elsa goes to Leuthart. And now.
Moritz leaves Leuthart early in the morning. He takes a rented golem car to Koju, crosses Lake Tosmo by boat (which also carries a golem car), and lands in Sagina.
From Saginah, he returns home again in a golem truck.

Since Moritz likes to change by himself, Elsa waits outside the room for three minutes. Mauritz came out in his normal clothes.
"Now brother Fritz and Gloria are here too.

"Yes, the butler told me. Let's go and greet them.

Elsa seems to have returned to her daughterhood for a moment, and walks down the short path, soaking up the nostalgia.

"My husband couldn't make it in time because he had some business to attend to, so I came ahead of him. Congratulations on the birth of your first child, brother Moritz!
I greet him formally.

And Elsa has a roll each of thick and thin Magi Silk fabric. The price on the market would be more than several hundred thousand dollars.

For example, it is more difficult to cut a woven cloth made of aramid fiber, which is used for body armor and stab-proof vests, than it is to cut it with ordinary scissors.
