「Haa, it’s finally over.」

Jin and Marcia both sighed.

While Jin was repairing the rental dock, Marcia was explaining to the neighborhood and apologizing.

「It’s already dusk…」

「We weren’t able to accomplish anything today.」

Because of the fire incident, the preparations for the competition including the adjustment of the ship weren’t able to be done that day.

「Well, there’s always tomorrow. The fishing work I helped with was only until today.」

「I see, then you can work on Cygnus from tomorrow morning.」

Jin then thinks about what Marcia says for a bit.

「By the way isn’t there a boat Marcia, Reiko and I can take?」

Because Marcia and Arrow are on Cygnus, it was easy for Jin to confirm the various adjustments the ship needed.

Marcia felt,

「Oh, I get it. Will the small boat I used for fishing be fine?」

Because it became misty in the wharf of the fishing ground, I decided to use it tomorrow.

That night.

「Reiko, sorry, but will you guard the dock of Cygnus? Because it will be difficult if something causes another disturbance.」

「Okay, I’ll call Luna from Horai.」

As she answered, Reiko passed through the warp gate which connected to Horai Island in the darkness, she instructed the golem girls Soleil and Luna.

「You called, older sister?」

「Yes, it is the decree of our most important father. Luna, you come with me. Soleil, you protect Horai Island.」

「Understood.」

And she returns to Port Rock again.

「Luna, you protect this ship in this dock as I explained it」

And the other golem that was there, Arrow,

「Arrow, this child is your senior whom father also made. I want you to protect the ship and the dock.」

「AS YOU HAVE DECIDED.」(TLFalin: Since Arrow speaks in full Katakana, I’ve been assuming she’s supposed to sound like a machine, so I’m going to put what she says in full caps from now on to represent this. This only applies for the chapters I translate)

Arrow, the golem who’s leg strength was reinforced in particular, the fighting power isn’t also so (even by this worlds standards, it’s rather low). So it’s weak to the offensive from a foreign enemy.

「You are the newest younger sister. Well, please rely on me.」

「YES.」

Reiko who made sure of it came back to the hotel.

Reiko does not have to sleep. After Jin went to sleep, she paused quietly while investigating the surrounding signs. It should be a condition of it’s state until the morning comes.

「……An intruder?」

The number of people who forced open the locked back entrance to the Sea Pavilion was 2.If Jin who is the absolute master is not in danger, there is no reason to do anything.

「……Are they going up to the 2nd floor?」

She leaves the room quietly so as not to wake Jin and stands in the corridor. A host of footsteps seem to be going up to the 3rd floor. The room where Marcia is staying is on the 3rd floor.

She thought of Jin who was looking forward to the Golem Boat Race with Marcia, and Reiko judged it would be bad if anything happened to Marcia. She went to the 3rd floor following an intruder without making a sound.

When she arrived at the 3rd floor, an intruder was standing in front of the Heron room. It was clear at a glance that their objective was in the room, and Marcia is staying in there.

「What is your business at midnight?」

*   *

The two people who were suddenly called out from the rear became stiff. They could probably be admired that they didn’t cry out of surprise.

When the two people turned around, they saw a beautiful girl with raven-black hair dressed in a white apron and a light blue dress.

「Well? What is it? Such a suspicious person at a place like this?」

One whispered in a low voice. Reiko who heard it,

「Suspicious. There is a woman staying in that room. Are you going to break in?」

Then, one person brandished a knife and silently attacked Reiko. It seems dialogue appears useless when they decide to stay silent.
