"... hot"

Some of this is due to the hot air emitted in the pile bunker...... the sun is pretty strong today. It was still cool in the morning, but I could clearly feel the temperature rising as the sun got higher.

Because Lavine and others don't like to be hot, or they lie back and relax in the cool part of the shade. Serafina may also be taking a cool lean against Lavine's body, and the rest group feels neat inside. Because I have trouble getting heat stroke, I want you to continue training while consuming moisture, such as shake ice and carbonated beverages.

Well. Spring is over, and the season can say summer already.

When it comes to what I'm doing in the sun, I'm developing a weapon that uses fire magic. I want to cool off in the shade, too, but I have to experiment where things open up somewhat to things alone. This is why the experiment continues while lowering ambient temperatures with wind and water magic.

"Go."

A square block of stone that sits in the courtyard of the workshop. That's where the dirt golem that took orders from me penetrates.

Boneless armor on its arm -. Strikes in a claw to release a body blow as it steps in. When the magic circle emitted light in my hand at the right time, the pile was ejected with the blast.

In that one shot - he wore a hole about a grip on a block of stone, and he was running cracks all over the whole place with further impact. Well...... not very powerful. The problem lies elsewhere.

"How about this time?

Alfred asks. I checked all the hands and feet of the golem, and then I answered.

"Looks fine. It's adjusting well."

"Hey, do you want a blast behind you to offset the recoil? That's funny."

Leaks a voice like Alfred impressed. It is the principle of the so-called recoilless cannon. That made me look pretty flashy when shooting a pile bunker. Later, it's pretty hot because of the heat.

But well, the destructive power is worthy of appearance, so it would be one stone and two birds capable of terrorizing the hostile.

... No. It's been tough getting here. At the time of the first experiment, the arm of the golem, which had been shot in by the impact of the ejection and the recoil, was lifted or inserted.

Shaping the hand armor to reduce recoil, devising a surgical formula to adjust the way the blast spreads… As a result of meticulous adjustments and modifications, even the dirt golem can thus be handled without problems.

The actual item to be equipped with the doll will increase the strength of the material so it should be even more powerful.

After that - we have to keep our people out of the backfire when we eject.

So far, I've been thinking about shielding the rear and shifting the blast upwards, but that's not a decision either.

In any case, let's first decide that this is complete with regard to the pile bunker body.

"So it's done in this way. I guess it feels like I'm going to go with the doll's arm after that."

"Okay. Let's give it to Viola."

"Oh. I'm coming, too. I have to write the ritual on paper."

Grab a pile bunker and move inside the workshop.

"Speaking of which, are you adjusting your armor well?

The doll's Mithril armor - it also engraves a technique to increase strength on the armor, but it seems to have a lot of tweaking to balance it with the output of the giant's Demon Stone.

"Right. The giant Demon Stone is amazing inside. I guess I could have enhanced it considerably more than I had first thought. I don't know where I'm going to weigh in... but I think it's starting to feel better."

Where to weigh in. In short, it is balancing.

Even if the intensity increases, this time the magic drain will become more intense.

Will it thicken the defense even if it makes it somewhat easier to shorten your breath, or will it drop strength to allow you to leave stamina longer? It was necessary to adjust its allocation.

Alfred's mouthfeel suggests that it is currently balanced. I don't see the optimal solution unless I actually try to operate it, so I think that's the right answer.

"Oh, just in the right place"

Rosemary and viola in one of the rooms of the workshop. Then there was the figure of a doll lying down. Admitting this one, Rosemary said that with a grin.

"What's just right?

When asked, Rosemary answers touching the doll's chest.

"We're moving it now. I'm looking forward to it."

... ho. Then I'll have to call everyone who's training outside.

The doll is like a knight wearing full body armor.

They say magic dolls matter in appearance as well. If you want an avant-garde role, they say you have to be avant-garde.

The fact that he is about two meters tall adds up to a considerable amount of intimidation even in the present state where he is lying.

I could have magnified it more if I wanted the power of a pilebanker, but this would be the limit, considering diving into the labyrinth and keeping it at home as well.

Besides, if it's in this state, it works with a giant knight. Mixing impossible movements with humans makes it possible to poke at the void.

"Wake up."

Rosemary let the magic circle unfold at her fingertips as everyone sipped and watched. Keep touching the chest area of the knight doll. As ripples spread from there, the glow of magic ripples across the doll's body.

Not at first. Smooth after getting up. The knight doll respectfully made Rosemary kneel.

"Sounds good."

Rosemary nodded contentedly, laughing hidden in her mouth with a feather fan. I don't know what to say, I was originally a princess, and it's like having a knight obey me.

But avant-garde. Is this going to run into enemy lines alongside Grace or Durahan?... That's quite something to imagine.

"... oh, I thought of that"

"What could it be?

"No. Because it's chivalrous, and I thought I should take care of the blast with my cape. You can knit your cape with alkenny yarn and enchant it with water magic to take away the heat."

"That's going to be the antipyrotechnic fort."

"I wonder if I can expect that, too. The pile bunker has taken shape, so I'd like it to be sized in this way."

"Okay."

Viola nods as she puts the experimental pile bunker she brings on her desk.

"Is this a good look for a pilebanker? For once, I'm not going to fit the doll side, but there has been a combination of adjustments, so the details have changed slightly."

Specifically, the shape of the part that misses the blast in the rear?

"I think I'm good."

Comparing the pile bunker with the doll alternately, Rosemary nods.

"Well... I guess that's largely settled"

"What do you do with your name? I'll always call it a doll..."

And, Grace tilts her neck. Seeing Rosemary in the words gave me some subtle expression.

"You don't like to think of names like this. Could you please?"

That's how they shook me. Um, what's the matter?

"...... hmm. I don't know about Ignis."

Think a little and then answer. Sure, it must have been a word that meant flame.

"It's settled. From today on, your name is Ignis."

Rosemary taps lightly to knock on the doll's armor. The doll I was told put his hand on his hip and let me try to thank him.

"Just got a paragraph... I'd like to ask you for one thing."

Looking back, Rosemary says.

"What is it?

"I want to apologize to Count Gartner. Because my plan has annoyed me for a long time."

...... ahh. To your father? That's probably more desirable in the form of seeing each other in person, if possible. It's not like it can be done with a comms machine.

But is it Count Gartner territory? I don't really want to go anywhere... around my mother's house... well, okay.

"Right. I've been busy developing dolls lately, and maybe we should all go out. I'm sure Lindblum would love that."

It's been hot lately and there's been a lot of heat. There's a lake in the woods, so relaxing in that area wouldn't be a bad idea.
