At 9:00 a.m. on the same day, a crowd had gathered in front of the main gate of the palace.
"Your Highness, Gloria, Cynthia, and Boulton, we are now on our way home.
"Well, take care on your way."
Gloria and the rest of the group, escorted by Prince Arthur of the Kingdom of Klein, his valet and tutor Lioness Ashford, and the captain of the female Kingsguard, Jessica Norton, left Essiaia, the capital of the Kingdom of Cerroa, on horseback.
Instead of crossing the Torres River, they will take a northeasterly route into the Kingdom of Klein.
Most of the representatives of each country had come to see them off.
"Mister Jin, Mister Fritz told me about this. Sword ...... no, sword, thank you."
"Thank you, Miss Elsa, for the pendant top."
"Jin-sama, Erza-sama, I hope to see you again someday."
The three greeted Jin and the others.
They greeted the members of the Shoro Kingdom in a particularly polite manner.
"Your Highness, I would like to express my gratitude to Mister Fritz and for all the help they have given us along the way. I cannot thank you enough.
"Mister Fritz. I hope to see you again when we meet again."
Cynthia seemed a little tearful.
"...... Cynthia, do you like my brother?"
"Hmmm, I kind of get that vibe."
Jin and Erza are conversing in a whisper at a distance so that the other members cannot hear them.
"But we're from different countries and we're both military. Normally, it's impossible.
"I guess so. ......
Jin is a little sad.
He was engaged to Elsa Randall, a native of the Shoro Kingdom, and everyone around him congratulated him, but there are those who are troubled by an ill-fated love affair. But there were others who were troubled by their ill-fated love (?).
The three of them rode horses given to them by King Cesar, waving their hands as they disappeared from everyone's sight.
Jin is going to instruct the old man to keep an eye on their journey from the sky, just in case.
Gloria and her group hurry their horses. And when they are far enough away that they can't see the people who are seeing them off: .......
"Mmmm, this sword! This is wonderful!"
Gloria is said to have been seen pulling out the sword on her horse and enjoying the sight of it.

"Today's work was the key seal, wasn't it?"
Jin muttered as he returned to the palace after seeing her off.
"Yes, father.
Reiko answered.
"Are you sure that King Richard is here to see him today?"
Elsa also checked with Edgar, who was walking diagonally behind her.
"Yes, I am sure.
So Jin and Elsa walked through the service gate of the palace, and then they separated to the left and right.
"Jin-dono, I'm looking forward to working with you today.
Jin-dono, I'm counting on you.
"It is a pleasure to meet you, Sir Jin Nidor, Magecraft Meister.
Jin and Reiko are greeted in a small windowless conference room on the second floor of the palace by the new King Cesar, Kirk Apted, who has been promoted to SS commander, and another person.
"My name is Foltz Durrant Alpha. I am Foltz Durrant Alfa, and I am pleased to meet you today.
He was the chief magecraftsman of the Kingdom of Celuloa.
"This is the Seal of the Keys.
Wrapped in a velvet-like cloth, it was a deep green color. Jin recognized the color.
"Are you sure it is made of ...... eladolite?"
"That's what I'm talking about. That's right."
Cesar nodded.
Jin had his first opportunity to look closely at the key seal.
It was a cylinder about 10 centimeters long and 3 centimeters in diameter. Of course, it is not a simple cylinder. It is intricately carved so that it cannot be easily imitated.
And since it is a <>, or <>, its main function ...... in this world is to mold <>.
"Jin-dono, I would like you to find out how this works.
Even in the Kingdom of Celuloa, there is no magic tool with a recognition system comparable to that of the <>.
Cesar wanted to take this opportunity to make such a recognition system more common.
Foltz Durrant Alpha and Jin cooperated to investigate the workings of the <.
"One of the requirements is that it has to be an eladite of this size," said Foltz.
Foltz muttered as he held the keystone up to the light.
Most eladrites are about two centimeters in diameter at the largest, and there are no known cylindrical eladrites with a length of ten centimeters and a diameter of three centimeters.
In other words, this is the world's largest elradorite.
"Yes, it is. Look here. It's designed to focus magic. It's supposed to allow the amplified magic power to reach distant magic tools and golems."
Jin has discovered one of its functions.
"I see, that's as expected."
Another function of the <> is that it can be used as a substitute for a specific <>.
With these two functions, <> can activate specific magic tools.
"But then, does this mean that it can be done without the <>?"
Cesar, who had been listening to the explanation, asked Jin a question. Jin gave his guess.
"Yes, probably. But there are probably one or two more protective measures in place, so I don't think it can be activated so easily without the <>.
"I guess so."
Jin and Foltz continued their investigation.
The first floor of the royal palace, at the back of the first floor, the first floor of the royal palace.
Richard the First's recovery room was located on the southeast side of the first floor of the palace.
Excuse me.
Welcome, Miss Elsa.
After knocking, Elsa stepped into the hospital room and was greeted by a maid of honor. Her name is Merfe. She is a red-haired beauty with a firm, well-developed figure.
After the death of the queen, Richard did not take a second wife to prevent a succession struggle, but he seemed to love this maid of honor instead, and Merve took good care of Richard.
"How is Richard-sama?"
Elsa asks a question.
"Yes, his face has become calmer in the last few days and he seems to have settled down. She still can't walk by herself, though.
Based on Merve's answer, Elsa plans a treatment plan.
The withdrawal symptoms from the poison were gone and the treatment was becoming easier.
About four days ago, Richard's was secretly performed on the Magi Crystal, and when he asked the old man to analyze it, he found that there was little loss of memory.
This means that his motor parts were mainly damaged, and he was not sure if he could manage to recover by continuing his rehabilitation patiently.
He is still being taken care of by Merve, but we wanted him to be able to bathe, dress, eat, and go to the bathroom by himself.
"...... father, also ......"
Elsa remembered her father in the countryside.
Georg, too, had suffered from brain damage and had trouble with daily life, but thanks to Elsa's treatment and his wife Marlene's nursing care, he was able to manage his daily life.
However, Georg had many memory deficits and lost most of the knowledge necessary for managing the estate, making it difficult for his eldest son Moritz to clean up after him.
Richard's physical functions were fine, but he was bedridden, his muscles would lose strength and he would not be able to get up, so he spent two hours a day in rehabilitation with the help of his maid, Melfet.
"Please continue with the physical rehabilitation. Next, please visit ......."
Elsa tells us the rehabilitation menu for dementia that Jin told her about.
"Listening to music is a good idea. Also, simple manual labor would be good.
Since it is counterproductive to give him a lot of things to do at once, he suggested those two things first.
As for music, Elsa explained that Merve was good with the lyre and that she could ask him to play Richard's favorite piece.
As for the manual work, Elsa thought about it a lot, but on Jin's advice, she recommended turning two ornate nuts in a rolling motion with her palms.
"Thank you very much."
After being sent off by Merve, who bowed deeply, Elsa left the sanatorium.
