Seeing it, a mutter leaked out of Reinhardt’s mouth unintentionally.

“Endoskeleton-type…”

Donald who caught his words looked a little surprised.

“Why do you ask that? Could it be that Reinhardt-dono has also become capable of building endoskeleton-type golems?”

From Donald’s words Reinhardt could tell that his guess was on the mark.

“Well, yes.
Because by making an endoskeleton the golems are able to move more similarly to a human, no?”

Reinhardt said and Donald made an exaggerated nod and,

“Indeed, indeed.
Understanding that at such a young age, Reinhardt-dono is a remarkable person.”

He voiced his admiration.
Reinhardt felt a bit shy.
But, he wasn’t foolish enough to mention Jin’s name here.

“Recently, I too have realized something about golems’ structure, you see.”

Probably what stopped Reinhardt’s answer there was his experience as a diplomat.

“Hmm, Reinhardt-dono’s golem was Schwarz Ritter, was it not? If I remember correctly it destroyed Beta’s Adamas Warrior or something like that.”

In a word, Beta was the next rank of Magi Craftsman after Alpha.

“That’s already a story from last year.
Your country can make much, much stronger golems now, can it not?”

This remark contained cynicism about the warp between Egelia Kingdom and Celuroa Kingdom, but Donald didn’t seem to mind it at all.

“Hahaha, that’s exactly right.
It seems that Beta too has further improved upon Adamas Warrior, as technology is something that marches on, isn’t that right?”

“I agree with you on that point.”

What was left unsaid however, was that he didn’t approve of war.

After that the talk gained momentum and it was evening all of a sudden.

Donald said he wanted to come tomorrow too.
It was just what Reinhardt wanted so he readily accepted.

And then Donald returned through the twilit streets.

“Ah, what an enjoyable while that was.”

Talks with other countries’ Magi Craftsmen were always fruitful.
Even with the premise of talking while keeping mum about the their classified information.

“Reinhardt-sama, that went well, didn’t it?”

“Uh-huh.
Because of you, Beth.
Thanks.”

Reinhardt thanked Beth for telling him about Donald.
Being thanked made Beth flustered.

“I am unworthy of such praise.”

“No, I’m being honest.
Dory too, you’ve all done well.
For nearly two years you’ve been away from our home country following me.
That’s soon to be over.
You can return to your families.”

“No, Reinhardt-dono.
My family included, we’re all in indebted to you so it is just a matter of course to assist you.”

This time Dory replied.

“Even so, being away from your husband must be harsh.
I feel sorry.
But it’s father who had you married people follow me, so…”

So that Reinhardt who was already engaged would not have an affair with a maid during the trip, his father had decided to just in case have only married maids serve him.
Incidentally, the two of them having modest bosoms was no coincidence.
His father took even that to account in his decision.

“After all, surely the old master arrived at this decision after thinking about it deeply.”

The butler Claude said so from the side.
He said this because he knew how Reinhardt liked huge breasts.
The two maids did not suspect it went that far.

“Well, at any rate we’ll be back at home in around ten days.”

“Yes, I’m looking forward to it.”

* * *

The following day, in the afternoon of the 21st, Donald came as promised.

Today he was accompanied by another Automata along with the golem number 457.

The Automata had long golden hair like silk, skin as white as porcelain, and eyes so deep crimson they seemed to be burning.
If she was said to be a human it could be believed.

“I am Elena.”

The Automata introduced herself.
Even her voice was beautiful.
It was a clear soprano like the sound of a songbird.

Reinhardt watched her in fascination without replying.
He came to his senses when Donald spoke.

“Reinhardt-dono, what do you think? Elena is wonderful, don’t you agree?”

After suddenly coming to his senses, Reinhardt blushed a little.

In his position as a diplomat, he had a lot of chances to see beautiful women.
Royalty, nobles’ daughters, wives of noblemen, their servants, and prostitutes.

But the Automata called Elena in front of her had beauty surpassing them all.

“Elena-dono, nice to meet you.
I am Shouro Empire’s Magi Engineer, Reinhardt.”

Perhaps due to some modest pride, Reinhardt introduced himself Shouro Empire-style as a Magi Engineer.
