Chapter 38: 38 - 01-25 Broken promises

Winter is in full swing and snow has fallen on the mountains visible from the village of Kaina.

The village, which is on a plateau but surrounded by higher mountains, receives little precipitation, but it is moistened by the rain and snow that falls on the surrounding mountains.

"I guess it snows, but not enough to pile up."

Jin had grown up in the city and had always dreamed of building a kamakura or something like that, but it seems impossible in this village.

"By the way, Roland-san, you haven't been seen for a while now. ......"

I promised Roland, the merchant, that I would visit him once every month and a half, so he should have been here by now, but he has not shown up.

It is hard to believe that a merchant whose reputation is based on honesty would break his word.

Then one day, someone other than Roland visited the village of Kaina.

"Grandma is calling for you, Jin!"

Jin, who had been working on a stove in his workshop, stopped what he was doing and went to his mother's house.

"Mr. Jin, it's been a long time.

There was Licia Faalheit, the tax collector.

"Licia, it's been a long time. You look well.

When Jin greeted her, Licia said,

"I'm sorry!

and bowed her head. Jin did not understand what was going on,

"Licia, please raise your head for now. I don't understand."

Licia raised her head and looked apologetic,

"I couldn't let the golem thing go unanswered, ......."

"What?"

"It seems that one of the soldiers stationed in Toka Village went back to King's Landing and blew the whistle ......."

This is Jin's fault. Gon, the golem that Jin had made when the wheat was transported, was seen by the soldiers and the villagers of Toka Village.

Even if Lysia's mouth is sealed, you can't put a door in another man's mouth. Word spread quickly in the capital.

According to Licia's story,

The king heard that a golem had appeared near the village of Toka, and that someone was using the golem as a messenger. The king orders his vizier to confirm the truth or falsehood of the rumors.

The Prime Minister carefully investigated the rumors and discovered that the person who was using the golem was Jin, who lived in the village of Kaina.

He also discovered that Jin was the developer of the pumps that were becoming popular in the area around the capital, as well as the stoves that were so popular among the common people.

The king, apparently feeling threatened by Jin, ordered Count Walter, the lord of this area including the villages of Kaina and Toka, to bring Jin to him.

Fifty of the count's men are now on their way to this village.

Licia concluded.

"Jin ......"

Martha looked worried,

"Don't worry. I haven't done anything wrong.

Jin-san, this is not the time ...... to be talking like that.

"If you run away, it will look even more suspicious, right?"

Jin reassures her, but inwardly he is a little nervous. Licia gave up when he couldn't convince her,

"Jin-san, magecraftsmen who can create and manipulate golems are very valuable, but if they don't belong to a country, they are considered dangerous. So please be careful.

"Thank you, Licia. I will be careful.

I don't really know what to watch out for, though.

At any rate, I decided to go back to the workshop and discuss the situation with Reiko.

"Worst case scenario, you might have to run away.

"In that case, we should use the warp gate on the mountain instead of the one here. I think it's better to disable the one here.

"Yes, unfortunately.

Soon after, the basement where the warp gate was placed was filled in and the entrance was put back in such a way that it was impossible to see it.

"Jin, right?"

A high-pressure voice echoed from the entrance of the workshop. I looked and saw many soldiers in armor standing there. It was faster than I expected.

"Yes, I am Jin?

Jin answered, and a man who looked like a commander said,

"Yes, I'm here to take you in. If you resist, I'll show you no mercy."

He thrust a spear at him. Jin held it back gently,

"What is it suddenly?"

The man who seemed to be the commander said,

"Are you defying Count Walter, the lord of this area?"

"No, so why on earth should I be taken away?"

At this point, Jin finally understood why Licia had told him to run away, but it was too late.

"Well, it's the king's order. Obey the king's order.

Judging from the tax rate and Licia's story, he had assumed that this was a sane country, but he was wrong. The man in front of me is a typical power-hungry type.

"I don't belong to this country. I'm not obliged to obey you.

Gradually Jin became more and more angry. Jin is not a saint, and he is rather short-tempered. He is soft on his relatives, but when they are harmed, he shows no mercy.

"Oniichan!"

Hanna tries to run to the soldier, but her small body is blocked by the soldier. No, she was pushed away and fell on her buttocks.

"Kya!"

Hannah!

Jin steps forward, and a spear is held out to intercept him... but...

"Get out of my way!"

Jin grabs the spear and activates forming. The spear transformed and bent into a U shape.

"Hey!　The spear!

You!　You dare to defy me!

Three more spears were thrust out. Gon, the golem, stopped them. He had returned from patrolling the village and rushed to the aid of his master Jin in his hour of need.

"Hey!　This is a golem!　I knew it was you!

"Killer?"

Jin picked up Hannah in his arms and asked suspiciously.

"Don't play dumb!　The golem attacks that are happening all over the kingdom right now, you were the one causing them, weren't you!

"What?"

Unfortunately, Gon and Gen's appearance has hardly changed at all since Jin and the others were attacked. The colors have been changed, but the design is virtually unchanged.

"Are you playing dumb?　I saw one once and so did some of my men. The same type of golem is attacking people and materials in many places.

What?

At this point, Jin finally realized how bad the situation was. It seems that someone or something is using Golem to attack various parts of the Klein Kingdom. It seems that the golem that was Gon's predecessor was one of them.

I wish I had done a little more research at that time. ......

It's too late, but a closer inspection of the Golem's core might have revealed the culprit.

"You can't get away with this now!"

Soldiers surrounded Jin. Jin turned to Hanna in his arms,

"Hannah, I didn't do anything wrong. But I don't think I can stay here anymore.

"Oniichan ......"

"I'm sorry I couldn't keep my promise until spring. I'll come see you again someday. Until then, take care."

After Jin finished saying that, he gently slipped a ruby (?) into Hanna's skirt pocket. ruby (?) into Hannah's skirt pocket.

Then he said, "Reiko!

"Reiko!"

"Yes, father."

Hearing Jin's voice, Reiko, a loyal automaton of unmatched loyalty, blasted away the 10 soldiers surrounding him in the blink of an eye.

"Hey!　You defy me!"

Jin said to the panicked Count Walter,

"Look, I didn't make them attack you with a golem. But I don't want to be accused of something I didn't do, so I'm going to leave.

With these words, he hands Hannah to Martha, and calls for the golem horse, <, and mounts it. Reiko rode in front of Jin.

"One more piece of advice. Try to lay a finger on the people of Kaina. I'll crush the Kingdom of Klein.

And he turns the wheel,

"Thank you for your help, Martha. Take care!"

With these words, he started running toward the northern mountains, leaving the soldiers under Count Walter in a daze. Gon and Gen followed.

"What are you doing, you guys!　After them!　After them!

But the golems were moving fast, and they were quickly shrinking in size. But the soldiers still gave chase. Even Count Walter was chasing after them on an ordinary horse.

"Onii-chan ......"

Jin ......

Jin-san......"

Hannah, Martha, and Licia prayed for Jin's safety.
