On October 19, Marcia's birthday was celebrated by the whole in Horai Island.
Originally, it was on October 10, but 5 days later on October 15, the day of the closest approach of the debris, we were not in a psychological condition to celebrate it. The celebration was postponed to the 19th because the debris was not in a state of mind to celebrate.
"Well, I didn't think they would actually open it."
Marcia had thought it would have to be next year.
"I can't not open it, you know.
Jin smiles.
"I'm grateful to all of you, and I have to show it.
"I don't know. I feel like I'm always being taken care of by Jin.
I guess it's a win-win situation.
Reinhardt interrupted.
"We're all in this together."
That's true.
"That's true." "That's true."
In his hand was a glass of wine. It was Reinhardt's favorite white wine, Erlich 3454.
When it is empty, the maid golem immediately pours it.
"But this time it was hard..."
Reinhardt opens his mouth as he recalls the night of the 15th.
"We could do nothing but look up at the sky.
But Hitoshi contradicts him.
"No, Reinhardt and the others did everything they could to prevent the residents from panicking.
"Brother Rai, that kind of low-key backup is very important.
Erza and Hitoshi also spoke up against Reinhardt.
"I'm sure Licia had a hard time too."
"Oh, I'm sorry?
Licia was flustered by the sudden rejection.
"Yes, that's right. ...... It's true that the villagers were upset, but they managed to calm down when I explained that there was no danger.
"It's people like that who make you feel safe to go out on a sortie."
Meanwhile, another member tells another story.
"Oh, Juliana, you made me laugh.
"Oh!"
"Your cheeks are so soft. She's so cute."
Some of the women were looking at Juliana, the daughter that Bertsche was holding.
"She's already grown up so much, hasn't she?
Stearina says admiringly.
"I guess a child this size grows up quickly.
Martha looked at Juliana with a smile.
"She doesn't cry at night, she's a good girl, thank God.
Bertsche said shyly that she used to be a night crier.
"Everyone grows up with parents who take care of them in some way, don't they?
"Grandma!"
"Ah!"
Martha's comment was interrupted by Hannah, who was standing nearby.
Hannah looked at Hitoshi with trepidation.
"...... thank goodness."
Jin was now chatting with Goose.
(It seems that the old man didn't hear her.) Hanna was relieved.
Then Reiko came to Hannah's side and poured her a glass of citran juice.
"Thank you, Reiko!
Reiko smiled gently,
"No, Hannah, thank you for your concern for my father.
she whispered in a small voice.
I'm sorry...
"Well, now that we're all here, there's something I wanted to tell you."
When the party was over, Jin looked around at everyone and opened his mouth.
Jin, what is it?
"Let's hear it."
Everyone looked at Jin.
"First of all, I would like to add Zion and the rest of the demon tribe to the . You may think it's too late for that.
No one objected to this.
"Kuhu, it's really too late."
Some agreed that it was a little late for that.
Since they had visited and interacted with the demon territory many times, there was a strong feeling that it was <>.
"Also, I'd like to investigate Onogoro Island more. Without any heavy-handedness, of course."
"Oh, you know what I mean."
Reinhardt agrees with Jin's words.
"I don't think they are the ones to protect this planet.
"I know. They didn't do anything this time.
Saki agrees with me.
"I see. I guess I'm not the only one who feels that way. ......
Jin muttered to himself in a self-deprecating manner.
"No, you're not."
"No, you're not."
"No, it's not true." "No, it's not true."
"No, it's not true," "No, it's not true," "No, it's not true," etc.
and so on, the words of denial came pouring out from everyone.
"Jin explained his origins clearly to us, and above all, he is doing everything he can for this world," said Reinhardt.
Reinhard said.
"That's right. Jin-kun could conquer the world as he pleases.
Toa.
Jin, you saved me when we first met. You're nothing like that golem.
said Bina.
"Jin, you know, in retrospect, you were very kind to accept my invitation even though it didn't benefit you much, and thanks to ......, you won the race!
Marcia said.
"Yes, yes. Jin, you and that are just a bunch of fools.
And Stearina.
"Yes, that's right! Jin-san is the one who suggested the way of my life to me!
And Licia.
"You're my grandma, you're my grandma!
"Yes, Jin is Jin.
And Hannah and Martha.
"Everyone is ......."
Jin was happy.
"Jin is my husband. He is an indispensable person in this world."
