After playing in the Ermee River until the sun went down, Jin washed off his fatigue in a hot spring and visited the village chief's house again.
Incidentally, Hannah did not accompany him because she was helping to cook dinner.
In other words, he was accompanied only by Reiko.
Reiko seemed to be in a good mood as it had been a long time since she had been alone with Jin.
Before the darkness had fallen, Jin and Reiko arrived at the village headman's house.
As soon as they knocked, Giebeck came out.
"Oh, Jin. Welcome."
Guibec calls me , just like in the old days. That's why this village is so relaxed, Jin thinks.
"I'm sorry I was gone during the day.
"No, that's okay."
Jin was invited in, and since it was almost dinner time, he decided to be brief about his requirements.
"We've been talking ...... about it for a while now, and we've decided to have the ............ wedding reception with Elsa on the evening of August 12th. We have decided to hold it on the evening of August 12."
Giebeck's face broke into a smile when he heard this.
"Oh, at last! This is a big deal!"
"Congratulations, Mr. Jin.
"Thank you very much."
Jin bowed his head, a little embarrassed when Sally came out of the back to congratulate him as well.
"So, we will have a banquet at Nido Castle at five o'clock in the evening.
"Okay. I'll let them know so that they can all show up as much as possible.
Please do so.
At that moment, Sally seemed to have an idea.
"Oh, Jin, aren't you going to have a parade?"
"The parade ......?"
Sally nodded.
"Yes. A parade. We'll ride in a horse-drawn carriage or something and go slowly around the village.
"Oh, no! I'm so embarrassed!"
But Sally laughed and complained to Jin.
"Don't say you are ashamed. You are a lord, you should show your face to your people at a time like this."
"...... Is that how it is?"
"Yes, that's right."
This conversation was conveyed to the old man through Reiko, who, without Jin's knowledge, decorated the cars on Horai Island and remodeled them to wedding specifications.
Jin accepted it while scratching his head.
"If you want to go to ......, we can leave Nido Castle at 4:00 p.m. and return after a leisurely tour of the village. How about a banquet at 5:00 p.m.?
"Yes, that sounds good.
Thus, the schedule for the wedding banquet in the village of Kaina was decided.

"......Okay, the 12th, right?
"Congratulations, Onii-chan!
Jin also gave a report at Martha's house.
Hannah and Martha congratulated him.
"So, Hannah, after that I'm going to go around the world to say hello, and when I'm done I'm going on a .
Where are we going?
On a big boat to a southern island.
"Wow, that sounds great! I want to go there!"
Jin nods to Hannah with a look of expectation on his face.
