It was 4:20 p.m. Horai Island time, 2:00 p.m. in Kaina Village.
Jin, Erza, Reiko, and Edgar traveled by to the square in front of Nido Castle, Jin's base in Kaina Village.
"Well, are Barrow and Behrle here?"
After he had decided to leave the company amicably, he had given himself a leave of absence as a grace period to decide what to do.
It has been almost a month since then. They must have reached a decision.
"Oh, Mr. Jin!
I'm sorry I'm late!
Barrow arrived with a flurry of noise, literally.
"There's no need to be in such a hurry."
Jin chuckled.
"Well, that's not why I'm here. ...... Oh! That's right!
"What's wrong?"
Barrow is flustered, and Jin gets ready as if there is some kind of trouble.
Congratulations on your marriage!
"Oh, thank you!"
Then Behrle came in.
"Hey, Barrow! What are you doing standing outside! Congratulations on your wedding, Mr. Jin and Mrs. Erza!
He was stern with Barrow and beaming with Jin and Erza. Behrle used a wonderful change of attitude.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
"I have heard about your plans for today.
In his office on the third floor of Nido Castle, Jin was having a meeting with Barrow and Behrle.
"I see. Well, that makes things quicker."
It seems that the old man had heard about the meeting through Butler.
"We're going to use a horseless carriage called a <> to go around the village. Barrow and Behrle can follow me on the golem horses.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
The others will be accompanied by Golem Maid 101, a five-colored golem who works at Nido Castle, and Butlers B and C. Since this is a parade, there will be a lot of people, so there will be no choice.
It's a parade, so it can't be helped that there are a lot of people.
"Leave Nido Castle, the route is ......."
Jin confirms the approximate arrangements.
"And when we come back, we'll have a feast right away.
"Yeah, but the maids..."
The five-colored golem maids working at Nido Castle will accompany the parade, so he is concerned about that.
"That's it, don't worry, we're calling for reinforcements.
We are planning to call in 10 of each from Horai Island.
Of course, we will bring the ingredients at that time, and some of them will be cooked over there before being brought to the island.
"...... and that's all."
"Okay."
It was 3:30 p.m. The parade is in 30 minutes.
* * * * *
.......
It should be here by now.
At Martha's house, Hannah is waiting for Jin and the others to arrive.
The cheers get louder and louder as they get closer.
"...... Congratulations Jin-chan! ......"
"Congratulations, Jin!
Congratulations, Elsa!
Congratulations!
"Finally, you son of a b*tc*! Don't make Erza-chan cry!
The whole village congratulates Jin and his family, congratulating them, cheering, and the children even throw flowers.
"Congratulations, Onii-chan!"
When the car carrying Jin and Elsa came in front of Martha's house, Hannah threw a blessing word as loud as she could.
Hearing this, Jin and Elsa made eye contact with Hannah and waved their hands smiling at her.
"Wow, girl, you are beautiful!
Behind Jin and the others' car, the villagers were following in a line.
Hannah joined the group of children and started to walk away.
"Congratulations, Jin-chan!
"Congratulations, Erza!
"Congratulations, Jin! Take good care of Erza!
Don't make her cry!
Everyone shouts their hearty congratulations.
(Congratulations, Onii-chan! ......)
Hannah was happy, but a little sad at the same time.
* * * *
The parade went around the village and returned to Nido Castle.
The parade went around the village and returned to Nido Castle, where a banquet followed.
The village chief, Giebeck, spoke on behalf of the village.
Jin and Erza, congratulations on your marriage. All the villagers wish you a long and happy life together.
Jin and Erza felt that although it was really only one word, it was more heartfelt than all the other words they had said.
The dishes served at the banquet were made from a variety of ingredients imported from all over the world.
Jin, congratulations! You finally have a family. Good luck.
Yes. Thank you, Mr. Locke.
Since it's a formal occasion, everyone comes up to Jin, says a word or two, and then returns to the banquet.
"Elsa, look how big my baby is!"
"Wow, she's so cute!"
Patty came in carrying Henry, who was born last June. The birth was a difficult one, but thanks to Sally and Elsa's efforts, mother and child are both in good health.
"So, this is Elsa, huh?
"Uh, ah, ah, ah..."
Erza is still not comfortable with this kind of topic.
"Congratulations, Jin. From now on, you have to be more and more firm and protect Erza-chan.
"Yes, Martha."
"Elsa, if you have something to say, say it clearly. If you have something to say, say it out loud.
"Yes, Miss Sally."
After that, villagers visited Jin and Erza one by one.
Jin and Elsa's wedding < party in the village of Kaina passed in this way.
