Time was turned back a day, and on June 21, the official <> of the <> departed from >.
The ship to be used is the Jin Airship <>.
Only this time, instead of the <>, it bears the symbol of the <>, the <>.
"Thanks to Jin-dono, we are comfortable, aren't we?
Gaju Tugga, our guide, said.
The members of the delegation are as follows
The official ambassador: Theobald Theodoric von Grain, Marquis of Shoro and current President of the World Congress.
Vice-envoy: Thein Miyabe, representative of Mitsuho.
Vice Ambassador: Deputy of the Supreme Administrator of Avalon, Ilmina Ratkin.
Vice Ambassador: Deputy Commander of the Mimaka Principality Garrison of the World Guard, Gaju Tsuga.
Technical Advisor: Magecraft Meister, Jin Nido.
Attendants: Manon, Reiko.
Pilot: Hope.
Pilot: Hope.
Gaju Tsuga is not only the second in command, but also acts as a guide and advisor.
The souvenir this time again is an assortment of Magi Stones.
In addition, various fruits, liquors, and spices.

"The principality seems to produce mostly grains and vegetables, and not much fruit," said Gaju Tuga et al.
Gaju Tsuga and others reported that "the principality is mainly grain and vegetables, and doesn't seem to produce many fruits". Of course, they are from Horai Island.
The wine was wine from the Shoro Kingdom. Spices were pepper, cinnamon, and red pepper.
As for the spices,
"The seasoning was monotonous".
The spices are based on the report that "the seasoning was monotonous".
In addition to the above, five standard golems are carried for emergencies.
Even with that much weight on board, the <> flew at a speed of 500 km/h.
"That's just the work of Jin-dono, isn't it?"
The Marquis Theobald Theodoric von Grainne, the ambassador, exclaimed in admiration.
He is a blood relative of Saki, a member of the Jin family, as you can see from his surname <>.
He may look burly, but he is a gentle gentleman with a good-natured personality.
I am honored to be here with the Magecraft Meister!
said an excited Mitsuho representative, TEIN Miyabe. He is simply called , as Mitsuho has no such status as .
He is thin and friendly as well.
"At this speed, we should be in the Principality of Mimaka by midday."
Ilmina Ratkin said.
She is a talented girl who has mastered engineering magic and martial arts.
She is a talented girl who has mastered engineering magic and martial arts.
We are more than halfway to the four duchies.
< were having their final meeting.
They heard a message from <> in the .
"The Duchy of Jags has taken Lady Elena hostage. ......"
"If they are demanding magi stones, magi crystals, and magic tools, then they must be aiming for supremacy. ......"
The people here have not yet been told that the hostage Elena is a fake. But...,
"I see that we also received a message from the Nostalgia Party saying <>, so I guess they have a solution."
"I'm sure they do. The reason for not revealing it here is so that it will not be leaked to the other countries in case it does get out."
We will first make friends with the three duchies except for the Duchy of Jagus.
"That's right. I don't know what will happen to the Duchy of Jagus, but it will be difficult without the cooperation of the three duchies.
"Does the friendship with the three duchies seem to be fine?"
Jin, who had been listening silently until then, asked a question. Gaju Tsuga answered.
"Yes, I think it will be fine as long as they understand that friendship with the <> is for the good of the country and its people."
The leaders of the three principalities are reasonable and well spoken people, Gaju Tuga concluded.
"From what I have heard, you have not been able to develop the inland areas due to the lack of water, is that correct?"
"Oh, you have a quick ear, Mister Jin. That is correct.
This was also answered by Gaju Tugga.
"We can drill for test drilling, though.
In the meantime, he had brought along a < for drilling.
This is a remote-controlled type that does not have a < (a 5-centimeter-tall mini-golem) on board.
"Oh, that's very reassuring.
Marquis Theobald Theodoric von Grain smiled.
"It would be useful to set an example of how such technology can be provided if we become a <>.

Various opinions were exchanged, and a rough roadmap had been defined.
"Please have a cup of tea, everyone.
Reiko handed out cups of Kaina tea.
"Ah, it tastes so relaxing, doesn't it?"
"Yes, it's delicious."
The caffeine-free Kaina tea is also drunk in Avalon and is popular as a health drink.
"Come to think of it, maybe we can educate them not only about the ingredients, but also about the food."
Gaju Tuga said.
"Of food, clothing, and shelter, we still don't have enough ."
In this connection, Jin asked a question that he remembered.
"Oh, by the way, what happened to the results of the <> analysis?
It was the Principality of Norway that requested the analysis. They want to know why the soil is so fertile and why no crop failure has occurred.
But that seems to be what each country seems to think.
"We brought back samples and examined them with <> and found that the soil contains a significant amount of magistone powder."
"Oh."
"But how it will affect the crops is still being confirmed.
This was answered by Ilmina Ratkin, who told me that they were actually experimenting with growing plants on powdered magistone mixed with soil.
"I understand."
Jin thanked her.
Jin's, i.e. Saki and Hanna's, investigation revealed that besides the magi stone powder, magi crystals were buried deep in the ground at regular intervals.
It is also known that these crystals are inscribed with <, and that they are magical tools.
The contents of the formula are still being analyzed, but it is thought that it may have the function of activating beneficial microorganisms in the soil.
Saki and Hanna said that since the magi crystals are buried at a depth of about 20 meters below the ground and are the size of a small pea, they are probably unnoticed.
