Magicraft Meister Part 4

March 15.

It is Elsa's birthday.

As far as Jin is concerned, a birthday is a day to celebrate , not .

So it is always and forever a day of celebration.

............Well, sometimes we are so busy that we skip the birthdays of <> members. .......

In that case, the old man tells us secretly or celebrates in place of Jin when he is not available.

A quiet word.

On March 15, Jin, Elsa, Reiko and others were at the house of Reuzert.

"Happy birthday, Elsa!"

"Happy birthday, Miss Elsa. Happy birthday to you.

Thank you.

Jin gave her a pendant head. Reiko gave her a bouquet of flowers.

And...

"Happy birthday, Miss Elsa."

Happy birthday to you.

"Happy birthday, Miss Elsa."

"Happy birthday to you!"

Happy birthday, Miss Elsa!

"Happy birthday, Miss Elsa."

Daikie, Cocona, Goh, Rubina, Merce, Amanda and others also offered their congratulations and bouquets of flowers.

"Thank you, everyone!

The bouquet, which was as large as a bag of flowers, was to be displayed in Elsa's room.

The time is 9:00 a.m. It is a brisk morning. It is a brisk morning.

"I'm going to Avalon tomorrow with Goh and Rubina.

"Yes.

Will you look after them while I'm gone?

I'll take care of it.

And we'll take it easy for the rest of the day.

"Yeah."

So, on this day, the Nido family decided to go on a leisurely picnic together.

Of course, transportation is by .

The members of the Nido family are Jin, Elsa, Reiko, Daikie, Cocona, Goh, Rubina, Amanda, Merce, and Yenny.

Butler and the golem maids were left in charge of the house, and we departed around 10:30 am.

At Elsa's request, the destination was a lake in the southern part of the Shoro Kingdom.

The eastern shore of the lake is called the Erlich region, which is a favorite wine-growing region of Reinhardt.

Moreover, the area has a connection with Elsa's maternal uncle, Viscount Burroughs Richter von Arabus, who was the lord of the surrounding area, including Lake Wass, 400 years ago.

It was also here on Lake Wass that the , the first large ship of the Shoro Empire, was launched.

It was Elsa who named the ship .

Elsa chose this place as her destination because of such a close relationship with this place.

< landed on the eastern shore of Lake Wass. It is a familiar place for Elsa.

The lakeshore is a large green area. Flowering trees are planted here and there, and flower beds are set up to display the flowers of the four seasons.

After landing the at the airfield on the lakeshore, the group left Hope at home and headed for the green space.

The area, which is almost on the Tropic of Cancer, is already warm enough even in the middle of March, and with the sunny skies, families can be seen here and there relaxing and taking it easy.

Jin and the others choose a sunny lawn with few people and spread out their sheets for lunch.

This time, it is onigiri.

There are umeboshi, okaka, kombu, salmon, salt, and grilled onigiri with miso and soy sauce.

The drink is hojicha.

After wiping his hands with a hand towel, he cleaned them with a < cloth and began to eat.

"Don't take it easy."

"Yeah. Thanks ...... for bringing me."

"No problem. I usually give you a lot of trouble.

But thank you.

"...... Wow. ......"

"......Madam Jin and Erza are really good friends. ......"

"...... a little envious."

Goh, Rubina, and Merce seemed to have been taken by the situation.

Daikie, Cocona, Amanda, and Yenny, on the other hand, were just as impressed,

"It's nice to go out like this, isn't it?"

"Yes, honey.

"It's relaxing, isn't it?"

"Would you like some more tea?"

They enjoyed this picnic to the fullest.

It was a peaceful time for the Nido family on a beautiful early spring day.

The same day, March 15.

<, two expeditions departed.

The first was the <.

The other is the < expedition.

<. Bussac, of the <>, is the deputy leader.

Falsmus, a mining engineer, accompanies him.

Farsmus is a member of the < clan, so he has gray hair and gray eyes. He is about 10 years older than Atkins, but this time Atkins is the leader because he has visited the area once.

He is joined by <, a .

<> is led by Rhodoth the , with Kondak the as deputy leader.

The other members are Archista and Sargera of the <>, Zeddis of the <>, and Harnatha of the <>.

Momoko, an automata, joins them as an assistant, and <> and <>, two <>, also accompany them.

Since they are not in a hurry, the two expedition teams head out by <.

The two teams are composed of two vehicles for the <> and four vehicles for the <>, with the general-purpose golem acting as driver, keeping in mind that the snow may be removed if the roads are blocked by snow on the way.

Since they were going in the same direction up to the halfway point, the six vehicles proceeded together, and they also worked together on snow removal.

On the way, there were a few occasions when we would ...... while looking at the already ruined clan territory on the side.

<<<<<>.......

These are the names of clans that have already died out, or have joined other clans and disappeared naturally.

"There is still quite a bit of snow on the ground."

"Yes. It's probably icy down there, so we should be careful.

"Yes, that's right."

As a result of our cooperation, we were able to travel about 250 kilometers on the first day, and we spent a comfortable night in the clan territory of <>.
