Sergei, the village chief, began to speak at the right moment.
The murmuring villagers kept their mouths shut, looked at him, and listened.

"It has been a long time, gentlemen. I have been to many countries since then, but I will never forget what you have done for me here.

"Also, we have fruit juice for those who don't like alcohol.
This is Citran juice and Apurul juice made in Hourai Island.

Of course, Reiko carried the wine barrels.

Smoked meat can be eaten as it is, but it tastes better grilled.

Other vegetables and meat from the village were also brought in, making for a grand feast.

Jin increases the number of balls of light. The darker the light, the more dangerous it is to use the grill for grilling meat and fish.

As soon as Reiko was told that she was an automata made by Jin, the women flocked to her.
Reiko said nothing, as the praise was a credit to Jin, but she firmly refused anyone who tried to pat her on the head.
Only your father is allowed to pat me," she said.
