04-07 Preparations for the Journey
When Jin finished breakfast the next day, he began the preparations for the trip .
「Umm, change of underwear, shirt, pants and a jacket」
Because he can clean my clothes with [clean up], he only takes two sets of clothes .
「… . . um, is there anything else I need?」
It is the first time Jin is going to be travelling in this world, so he’s confused by it, and he can’t count on Reiko in this regard .
「For now, I’ll treat it like when I traveled on earth . 」
Money, medical supplies, handkerchief, tissue, guide book and camera .
「There are no guide books or cameras, huh . 」
While saying so, Jin decided to make a camera soon .
「And the handkerchief with the crest of Reinhardt’s house . 」
It was what he was given to confirm his identity, he couldn’t forget it .
「After that, I’ll put it in this bag . 」
After he made sure that nothing was missing, he finished his preparations .
「Father, what shall we do with the Warp Gate?」
Because of the Warp Gates, if they needed anything they could return to Hourai Island at any time .
「Well, umm, what would you do?」
Jin was unsure of whether or not to bring it because it was so bulky .
「Well, if I only bring the Magic Device, I can do something about the housing on the spot . 」
As long as he has the Magic Device for the Metastasis, he can do something about the mount and housing afterwards as long as he has the materials available .
「That’s right, I think that’s good . Should we take two sets?」
「Yeah, even if something happened to one of them, as long as we have two sets we should be able to return . 」
With that, the Magic Device that could be considered the heart of the Warp Gate was prepared .
He wrote the control system on a plate with a Magic Crystal of the darkness attribute .
Because it has to be synchronized to the magic wave pattern on the master side in Hourai, it’s a part that can only be made on Hourai island .
「Yosh, this should be good . 」
Without the housing, there’s no issue of weight as the two units only weigh about two kilograms .
「Is there anything I’ve forgotten?」
Well, even if he forgot it, he could probably buy it and in the worst case, he could make it .
「Father, why don’t you bring a water bottle just in case?」
「A water bottle, sure . There are insulated properties, and there should be a magic formula to purify the water inside . 」
He decided to make it right then . Making it out of light silver, he made the double sided structure and removed the air from inside . In short, he made a thermos bottle .
Furthermore, he made a magic circuit on part of the bottom to purify water so his stomach wouldn’t have trouble with unboiled water .
「And that’s done . I also made one for you, Reiko . 」
「I don’t need to drink, but I’ll reserve it as a spare for father . 」
She said as she received it .
「Then… . 」
「Since you were invited, father, how about something as thanks for Reinhardt?」
「A gift, huh…?」

After Jin thought for a while, he took a milky white Magic Crystal and…
「[Forming]… [Magic Formula], [Writing] . 」
A ring was created . It was an inferior version of the Guard Ring .
「Shall I call it a Protection Ring?」
Jin didn’t know whether protection or guard sounded stronger, but he named it this way because he named the first one guard .
「I’ll make a few and maybe I’ll give them out if there’s a good opportunity . 」
「That’s right, although I have the Guard Ring, maybe I should have something like a sword?」
Because Reinhardt knows that Reiko is an automata, he wouldn’t think much of Jin’s equipment .
「If it’s a sword, it’s easy to handle and…」
「I see . 」
As Jin was saying so, he immediately took out some adamantium .
「[Forming], [Hardening], [Surface Treatment] . 」
The sword was complete . It was a small Japanese sword with a slight curve . It was about 50cm and Reiko thought it looked good . Since he’ll be using magic, he needed something to put the blade in .
「Father, this is…」
「Yes, was this knowledge copied into you, too? This isn’t a sword, but a katana . It’s lighter than a regular sword and it’s tough, too . 」
While he was saying so, he made a sheath out of light silver . The color of the oxidation film made it pink, so that even if Reiko had it, it wouldn’t be out of place . The sword harness was made to look silver .
「Though I’m not familiar with the structure of a Japanese sword, this should be OK . 」
The hilt was made of a fang from a Siam Dragon, and the string was made from the thread of a Ground Spider so it wouldn’t slip .
「Ok, it’s complete . The inscription… . because it’s pink, how about peach blossom?」
And he handed the finished “Peach Blossom” to Reiko .

「Thank you, I’ll make sure to take care of father with this . 」
As he thought the preparations were complete with this, he decided to issue instructions to Soleil and Luna for his absence .
「Then, if there is anything…」
Jin started to say and then…
「H-Hold on!」
As he said so, he rushed back into the workshop and Reiko followed behind him . Soleil and Luna stood by as is .
「What happened father?」
Reiko asked Jin as he began to look for something in the workshop .
「Oh, I made a Mana Cam . 」(TLFalin:マナカム, it’s basically a cell phone, don’t know why it’s called a cam)
Jin had forgotten until now that he had made one .
「All right, I’ll make two sets first of all so that I can talk with Reiko and Reiko can talk with Soleil or Luna . If there is something, you can contact them with this . 」
For the moment, he didn’t call it a cell phone because he cannot choose who to talk with . It’s just a transceiver . Because it’s about the size of a modern cell phone, it’s not too bulky .
「I don’t think I’ve forgotten anything with this . 」
Relieved, Jin again went and gave instructions to Soleil and Luna .
「…Do you understand?」
「Yes, understood . 」
「If there is anything, contact us by the Mana Cam . 」
「Yes . 」
Saying so, Jin and Reiko went to Port Rock using the warp gate .
At Port Lock it was morning local time .

They went to the Sea Bower Inn which they were familiar with .
「Oh, long time no see, did you go somewhere?」
The proprietress greeted them .
「It has been a while, since the competition . I heard from Marcia that you made her golem . 」
According to her, Marcia seems to be running around to open her shop as a Shipwright .
「I see, how’s the town now?」
She had paid off her debts and had bought the tools she needed, and then went to another town to buy some materials the day before .
「So, what’re you doing today? Are you staying the night?」
「Yes, but it’ll only be one night . 」
Jin said and,
「Well then, I’ll go with the same 300 as before . The room I had… Bonito is still vacant, right?」
He got the same room as before . Well, the competition is over, so there were less tourists than before .
「Now, we’ll wait to be picked up tomorrow . 」
Jin murmured so, and sat down on the familiar bed .
