Corwin Raqqa Kidoh and Deus Ex Machina shook hands.
"Well, let me show you the bus right away.
Makina signaled, and <>'s crew, <> 2 to 20, unloaded the bus from the hangar.
"So this is the bus."
"It holds 30 passengers, not including the driver and his assistant, and can handle some pretty rough roads."
"I see, so it has eight-wheel drive."
Corwin looks around the bus sullenly.
"The driver and assistant are also golems. and .
"Well, this is wonderful. Of course, this is the Adriana way, isn't it?
"Yes."
Corwin said that he had recently attended an lecture in .
"I hope to eventually be able to make these advanced golems."
And then, we all moved to a room in the government office adjacent to the airfield.
The group then moved to a room in the government office adjacent to the airfield.
There, Makina gave them a pamphlet with instructions on how to use the equipment, and then decided on the conditions for lending it to them.
Since < and are present, they can tell you how to use the equipment, but the conditions for lending it must be agreed upon here and now.
"Hmmm...since this is a prototype for Deus Ex Machina-sama, you want us to operate it here and feed back the data?
"That's right. Then I would be happy to pay you a monthly rental fee of 30,000 dollars.
That includes the bus and the two golems?
Yes.
I thought this was a very good deal, and we discussed it with the old man beforehand.
"One more thing, I would like you to use this bus to transport the spectators of the air race organized by the volunteers of the Nordic Federation to the village of Toka.

This is one of the ways to ensure the success of the air race in Toka.
"If it breaks down, please contact me and I will get it to Makina-dono right away.
Theon added a few more words.
After some details were worked out and put into writing, three copies were made, signed by Makina, Theon, and Corwin, to be kept by each of them.
"Well, well, today was a good day."
After all the contracts and other paperwork was completed, refreshments and tea were served to the guests for fellowship.
"I would have preferred you to come to the royal castle."
"No, we have a lot of work to do later on, so we can't stay that way."
Corwin looks disappointed, and Makina (actually, Jin) refuses softly.
Theon, too, says he is too old and wants to rest at home, so they decide to fly back home.
"Please bring the third generation of magecraft masters, Jin-sama, with you this time."
Corwin had expressed this wish again and again to Zion and Makina.
Jin, who is controlling Makina, is trying to keep as much distance from her as possible, and he is unaware that the more Corwin pleads for her, the more it is having the opposite effect.

"Oh, it's over, it's over. Thank you, Theon.
"Thank you, Jin.
< had soared into the sky, Jin and Zion were able to have an honest conversation.
"Jin, you've been spreading your hands all over the place, haven't you?"
"No, it was originally for Licia who couldn't stand to see the decline of Toka village.
"Oh, that's right. Jin has a soft spot for his friends.
