Chapter 295 – Owner Jin
The location where the carriage landed was not the Kunlun island mansion but rather inside the garage with the warp gate setup.
“When did they even make all these….?”
Jin muttered. The last time Jin had come to the Kunlun island was on 26th. It was 30th now. Seems like Laojun had established quite a lot of things in that short period of time.
Jin thought that he would praise him for it later and got off the carriage with Hanna and Elsa.
“Waah! This, is onii-chan’s home! Wow, wow! What is going on here?”
Hanna had noticed the difference from before in a moment.
“Hanna-chan, Jin-nii is amazing. So he can do these stuff as well.”
“Yep! Onii-chan is amazing!”
While Jin was thinking how he would explain it to Hanna, Elsa went ahead and convinced Hanna.
“Alright, let’s go back to Kaina village.”
“Yes!”
This time, they went underground the mansion to the warp gate which leads to Hourai island. The number of Butlers defending and maintaining the warp gate in Hourai island had increased to 10.
Then they went from Hourai island to Kaina village. It was troublesome but safer that way.
They came out under Jin’s workshop there.
Hanna went up the stairs vigorously and stood before her house.
“Yay, we are back!!”
They were indeed welcomed by the princess in Alban but judging from Hanna’s high spirits now when she is back, it seems her home is the best to her.
She then went on bursting into the house.
“Obaa-chan, I am back!”
Hearing her voice, Martha came out to greet them.
“Hanna, welcome back. Did you have fun?”
Yes! You know, I got to meet the princess! She also gave me clothes!”
As one would expect, Martha’s face became a bit stiff hearing the word ‘princess’.
“Elsa, welcome back.”
“I am back, mother.”
Mine also came out to greet them.
“Unthinkable things always happen around Jin-nii but I had fun.”
She reported.
Jin slowly came up the stairs the last.
“Welcome back, Jin-sama.”
“Welcome back, Jin.”
“I am back.”
Being told ‘welcome back’ is a merry thing. It makes you heartily feel that you have a place where you belong.
However, there was something Jin had to do first.
“There is something I need to talk about with Martha and the chief first.”
“What is it? Did something happen?”
Jin said he would tell them at the chief’s house and they all headed there.
“What happened, Jin?”
The village chief, Gibeck, was at home and invited Jin and the others in.
“There is something I wanted to report.”
And Jin started talking about how they went to Kurain kingdom’s capital, Alban.
About Lishia’s sword and Gloria’s request, about how they met with the princess, how he fixed the automatas and took on a request from the king himself.
And as its reward, he got Kaina village as a leasehold land. At the end, he also showed them the contract papers.
“I-I see…”
Even Gibeck was surprised and had a stiff expression. Martha and Mine were also surprised.
“T-that means, this next 50 years, Jin will essentially be the governor of this village….”
But Jin denied.
“No, I do not plan on becoming a governor. In the first place, it was something I thought of after hearing that they were recruiting people as soldiers from here.”
“….You have sharp ears. Certainly, the day before yesterday, the recruitment order was issued and Rock, Jeff, Deibu, Howard and Rick were taken from the village.”
As Jin had thought.
“But with this, it will be fine. The recruitment order was retreated so there will be nothing to worry about from here on out.”
“Hmm, if so, that is great.”
