At 3 p.m. local time on June 21, the <> arrived at the <> garrison in the southern town of Recode in the Principality of Mimaka.
"You can feel the time difference when you travel such a distance, can't you?
The time difference between < and Lecode is about seven and a half hours.
When we traveled using the magic circle, we would feel this time difference, and it would be hard for those who are not used to it, so we traveled by <>.
The Hurricane, which traveled about 2,200 kilometers in a straight line at a speed of 500 kilometers per hour, took four and a half hours to complete the journey. The <>, with a straight line distance of about 2200 kilometers and a speed of 500 kilometers per hour, was destroyed in 4.5 hours.
For those on board, this means that they left <> at 6 p.m. and arrived in L'Ecorde at 3 p.m.
It is understandable that the passengers are a bit confused if they are not accustomed to it, even if they know it theoretically.
The group was not in the hotel that day.
The group stayed overnight at the garrison that day, and on the following day, the 22nd, they first headed for Quonare, the capital of the Principality of Mimaca. The flight takes only less than an hour.
The time was 9:00 a.m.
"Oh, there's a balloon up in the air to welcome us.
The last time we visited the Principality of Mimaka, not a single balloon came up due to lack of energy, but this time, at least one balloon has come up, which shows how welcoming the Principality of Mimaka is.
Welcome to the Principality of Mimaka!
The voice was delivered using wind magic.
This is not surprising, since air traffic control has not yet been standardized.
The , piloted by Hope, followed the guidance of the hot air balloon to an airfield on the outskirts of the capital city of Quonare.
"Oh ......"
Gaju Tugga's eyes widened.
The area, which had been covered with weeds last time, had been neatly weeded and cleared.
"They must have done some construction work since ......."
Gaju Tugga explains.
"I see, I guess we can assume that the Principality of Mimaka is looking forward to this meeting.
Theobald Theodoric von Grainne, the legate, squints as he says this.
< would land.
"Welcome to the Principality of Mimaka, gentlemen. My name is Ryuji F. Kaczuki, Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications.
My name is Theobald Theodoric von Grain, the official envoy of the World Congress of Friendship.
The two shook hands.
The deputy ambassadors also introduced themselves, as did the diplomat Yahal Soumi.
Then, the diplomat said,
"Are you from Mitsuho or Huso, Mr. Katsuki?
asked Tein Miyabe, the Mitsuho representative. Ryuji F. Katsuki nodded.
Yes, I have heard that my family is from Mitsuho.
Oh, that's a coincidence.
"Please tell me your story sometime.
The two men exchanged such conversation and shook hands twice.
It was a good decision to bring the deputy from Mitsuho.
Finally, Jin said,
"This is Jin Nido, the third generation Magecraft Meister, the technical advisor.
Jin Nidoh,
"What, what, what! A Magecraft Meister? This is the one!
"Oh, I'm so pleased to meet you! Welcome to the Principality of Mimaka!
They were both very excited.
Finally, Manon and Reiko were introduced as attendants.
When they saw Reiko, they rolled their eyes, but did not ask any questions at this moment.
After that, the group got into two prepared Golem cars and headed for the guest house.
On the way,
"Well, your airship is a little different from the others, isn't it!
I'm completely hat in hand!" and so on.
and so on, as Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications Ryuji F. Katuski and diplomat Yahal Soumi praise Jin.
Then the guesthouse approached.
"Hmm, this kind of wooden building. ......"
The roofs and eaves are larger than those in the inland areas because of the southerly winds and much higher precipitation in this coastal area.
Therefore, they somewhat resemble Japanese architecture.
The inside of the room, although it was a wooden floor, was in the style that one had to take off one's shoes, which reminded Hitoshi even more of a Japanese building.
Please wait here first.
After relaxing in the reception room, the group was served kuhe again.
Reiko and Manon were also served,
"No, we are automata, so no, thank you.
Naturally, the ladies were surprised.
This was in consideration of their nationality, which values straightforwardness and straightforward expressions.
After that, the Minister of Internal Affairs and Communications managed to regain his composure,
"Well, let's take a break and then we will go to the royal palace.
He explained the schedule to us.
As planned, we were to arrive at the royal palace in about 30 minutes.
About half an hour later, as planned, the group met with Prince Gaspar de Mimaca in the conference room of the palace.
Although he was only eleven years old, no one was surprised because they had heard the report of Tsuga and others.
In attendance were Prime Minister Moiz Myas Lodi, Minister of Internal Affairs Ryuji Ef Katski, and diplomat Yahal Soumi.
"First of all, let me say welcome to the Principality of Mimaka."
The eleven year old Prince welcomed the delegation in a mature manner.
"And thank you again for your gifts. I especially appreciate the fruit."
The Prime Minister thanked them and bowed.
"I am glad to know that the Magecraft Meister is accompanying you this time. I look forward to hearing more about what you have to say later. But first, let us have the necessary discussions.
The Prince announced, and the discussion began.
"After my last visit, I visited the Principality of Dalat, the Principality of Norway, and the Principality of Jagus, in that order, and I felt that I could establish friendly relations with all of them except the Principality of Jagus.
Gaju Tugga, who is here as a deputy envoy, began his remarks by saying, "I felt that we could build friendly relations with countries other than the Principality of Jaghtha.
"I felt that all four countries are suffering from low precipitation and difficulties in securing water resources in the interior.
"Yes, you are right."
Gaju Tugga reported, and Prime Minister Mojts Myas Lodi agreed.
"And that the soil is fertile and does not suffer from continuous cropping.
"That is also true."
"And you said that you are worried because you don't know the reason for that.
"Yes, that's true. As long as we don't know the reason for the fertility, we don't know what will cause a crop failure.
The Prime Minister nodded at each of Tsuga's words.
"I would be happy to make such an investigation.
"Oh, that would be great."
Minister of Internal Affairs Ryuji F. Katsuki's face broke into a smile.
After all, the fact that they had already discussed the matter once was a good thing, and this time, the meeting went even more smoothly.
