Breakfast porridge, miso soup with tofu and green onion, pickled ume plum, sweet omelet, and pickles.
"Oh, it tastes so sweet!"
Hilde, who had become a connoisseur of Japanese food, was really enjoying this meal.
So did his companion Flora.
"The food here is delicious."
"Thank you very much."
Only Jin is accompanying her, while Erza is eating in a separate room with the twins.
"How are you today?"
"Well, I would like you to show me around the village.
"Yes, I would like you to show me around the village."
Jin goes over the procedure in his mind.
(......) First, he should send Butler B to the village chief and tell him that a nobleman from the Shoro Kingdom is visiting the village.
(Actually, they are the royal family, but I'll say "nobles" because it might cause a commotion if I tell that much.
(Hannah and Martha will definitely find out, so I'll play Butler C with Hannah and Martha and make sure to tell them.)
"...... just started running a cruise ship on the Erme River."
The boat has been in service for less than a month.
Well, that sounds like fun.
We commissioned a shipwright from the Kingdom of Elias to build us a cruise ship.
Are you a friend of Jin's?
Yes, well... Her name is ...... Marcia.
I've heard of her. <
Yes, that's right.
I'm looking forward to it.
Jin wondered for a moment which type of boat Emperor Taisho (Hilde) would prefer, the flat-bottomed, pleasure craft or the three-hulled, high-speed type .

"Try a straw hat and some sunscreen.
Before going out, Jin presented Emperor Taisho (Hilde) and Flora with a straw hat and sunscreen.
"Well, it looks cool."
Hilde seemed to have never worn a straw hat before, even though she had seen one before, and accepted it happily.
"It looks good on you."
"I see. It looks good on you too.
Hilde and Flora complimented each other.
And then there's the sunscreen.
This sunscreen is a recent development of Elsa's, and is a lotion type.
<> is a with healing magic, this does not have healing magic, but rather a warding effect that blocks or reflects ultraviolet rays.
The commercially available version contains fine particles of light silver oxide (titanium dioxide), which makes it appear white, but this one was completely transparent.
"Well, does this protect against sunburn?"
"Yes. It should last about half a day."
"Great. ...... Here, Flora, you should put some on too."
"Yes, Miss Hilde."
We apply it to the exposed skin areas: arms, backs of the hands, neck, behind the ears, etc.
They both wear straw hats, so their foreheads should be fine. .......
"You might want to apply it to your nose as well," Jin advised.
Hilde, the emperor of Japan, had been wearing a sunshade when she went out, but Flora was different.
"The head of my nose gets sunburned unexpectedly," she said.
"Oh, really?"
"Well, is it?" "Yes. ...... Jin-dono, is this sunscreen available on the market?"
Flora said, "It is a good cosmetic for women who work outdoors.
"They are looking into the possibility of mass-producing it.
For now, they were working on a substitute for the drug base.
The <> is made by centrifuging blood with magic power at subsonic speeds and processing it in a <>.
The blood used is all derived from demons, so it is difficult to mass-produce.
<, we can synthesize it.
Saki is also helping with this.
"If Erza is working on this, we can count on her.
The Emperor Taue trusted her.

At 9:30 a.m., when the news that the nobles of the Shoro Kingdom had arrived had probably already spread throughout the village, Jin led Hilde and Flora out of Nidou Castle. He was accompanied only by Reiko.
Nevertheless, the village of Kaina is safe from the constant patrols of the twenty-six Land A to Z and the magical brain << Gengshen> watching over it.
Moreover, this time, the old man should be watching over them with his <.
First, Jin led them to the Erme River.
The two were led to the Herme River.
"Wow, this is fun!
Emperor Taisho (Hilde) is in a strange state of excitement.
She is now on a flat-bottomed pleasure boat, <>. She is piloted by Sailor 2.
Flora was against the high-speed boat, <>, in case of any emergency, so this one was chosen, but Emperor Taue seems to be enjoying it more than expected.
Of course, she was wearing a life vest.
"His Majesty...... Hilde-sama must be enjoying these days since she has been living in a repressed life. ......"
Jin, who was watching from the riverbank, was talking to himself like this.
There were some children on the bank of the Erme River, including Hannah.
"Hey, honey, that's the former emperor, isn't it?
"Yes. You know what I'm talking about. ......
We had once welcomed the then female emperor, Hilde, at the Reuthert residence.
"Sounds like fun ......."
"I know. ...... I guess it was a good thing that she abdicated."
Seeing his lively smile makes Jin happy.
If you ask him who he respects in this world, the first person he mentions is Emperor Hilde, he is that much in love with her.
"I really wanted him to join the <>.
"I guess it's a bit difficult with the royal family, isn't it?"
"Yeah. ......"
Even though he has retired, the title of <> is unique in the Shoro Kingdom. He is a person who cannot be replaced by anyone else.
Even now, his political influence is great. Although he does not seem to have the slightest intention of doing so.
"He's still young, and he seems to be supporting the current emperor in many ways."
"Sounds like a lot of work. ......"
"Oh.... I'm sure there are hardships that the common people have no idea about."
