It's time for winter.

It's the second winter I've come to this world.

I came here completely unprepared in the first winter and I ran into Eli, but I'm ready for this year, drawing on that lesson!

The elves have been making and accumulating charcoal since the beginning of last winter, and Batty has been sewing fur thick clothes.

Porches are also changing hair from summer to winter hair.

And I can't do nothing!

As the owner of this farm, I decided to prepare for my own winter.

A stove!!

Typical heating appliances!

But there is no oil in this world, so we must replace the fuel.

That's where I thought......

Salary!

Burn firewood and heat the room with that heat!

With the help of the firewood stove, we're going to have a warm winter this year!

So.

Make a firewood stove.

Of course the material is metal.

You have to constantly burn the fire inside, and you can't act as a stove unless you transmit that heat firmly outside.

After all, the metal to be prepared is mana metal.

This mana metal. Strangely, it softens at temperatures that are no big deal when you want to process it, but once it's finished and hardened, it becomes a melting point far beyond steel, and it doesn't burn or melt.

Thermal conductivity is also ideal and great as a stove material.

Really handy and mana metal for anything!!

"No, I don't know.

"Hmm? What's up, Bacchus?

"I was wondering if Dwarf would cry if I saw this sight. But really, it's just precious mana metal here!

Bacchus passed by with words of profound significance.

"Ah, even our brewery is banging up a high degree of distillery liquor to blow the cold!

"Oh, please."

Looks like you'll be able to drink whiskey and brandy as well as shochu one of these days.

Leave that alone.

Let's focus on making stoves now.

The first thing to think about is making chimneys.

A passage that burns firewood and puts out smoke. I absolutely need a chimney.

Besides, you can't just make a chimney.

The smoke that came out of burning firewood is also well feverished...... Or the air heated by fire also goes through the chimney, so the chimney itself brings its corresponding heat.

If you put the hot chimney through each room, the heat will warm up all the rooms.

You think if you make a chimney long enough to pass through all the rooms, you have to turn up the heat on the stove body to warm it up as a whole?

Naturally there are problems with getting hotter closer to the stove body and not even heating, but hey, let's study that.

"In order to burn the interior of the firewood stove well, air intake is important, so we need to make the structure easy for air to get inside......!

The elves get busy mixing up and making stoves along the way.

"It would be nice to keep it loaded next door so I can add it as soon as the firewood is down......!

"Let's also make a cage for firewood!

"Not fun if you can boil water or cook on the stove!?"

"When I touch it, it's tear-free. It's hot. Surround them with fences so that the children don't touch them by mistake."

One good idea after another is proposed.

"Wouldn't it be better if we could take a closer look at the fire inside?

"Poel. Can you make a glass lid for the stove?

"Leave it to me! I'll make you wear super heat-resistant glass that won't even dissolve in magma!!"

Poel, head of the motivated glass finishing squad.

I'll try and make a lot of trials and errors and actually work on it.

"But every time I think, isn't it too awesome, Saint, to process mana metal much harder than steel easily?

"I'm not awesome. What's amazing is this holy sword."

Vajra silk that doesn't even let the dragon fangs through.

I sew that Vajra silk together easily because I use a mana metal needle.

Easily chopped and ripped and processed that mana metal, Evil Sage Dry Schwartz.

"I see -!

"I can't believe I slashed and tore mana metal. That's the Holy Sword!

"The ultimate sword given by the god of the underworld!

"We have seen and realized exactly how amazing it is!!"

How many times have I been helped by this farm life, the Holy Sword!

How fortunate we were to meet the Holy Sword in the early days!

"Thank you Holy Sword!!"

And while I'm doing the mess, it's finally done!

Total mana metal firewood stove!!

Having allowed the chimney to pass to several rooms in the mansion would have a heating effect not only in the room with the stove body, but also in each other room.

The top of the stove has been flattened so you can also place pans and frying pans.

It is also possible to boil or cook water.

I can even bake a cake.

"Now our farm, our preparation for winter, is perfect! Come any time, General Winter!!"

"Wait! Saints!!"

Elf's Elron calls out persecuted voices there.

Hey, what's up? In such a pressing way.

"This stove lacks something conclusive!

"Hey, what?!?"

What do you mean!?

There is something missing in the stove that I should have created with my soul and finished perfectly!?

"It's firewood!

"Right -!?"

This is a firewood stove!

Firewood burning and heating stove!

Don't let any machine move without fuel.

A firewood stove is like a wizard without magic.

"So..., now we're still going into the woods to collect firewood...!

But can we gather them now and make it to winter?

By firewood, I guess you need a period of time to crack it and then dry it somewhat?

"You accidental saint......! It's ok, it's ok!!"

"What!?"

"Because we already collect firewood in our elves!!"

What's good!!

Behind the mansion, tons of firewood piled high enough to look up!?

You're saying this is all from the elves? Huh!

"Oak, Oak, Oak! We've got all kinds of trees! Burning fire, enjoying all kinds of flames with all kinds of wood is one of the flavors!!"

"Oh...!?"

That's the forest people elf......!

Deep to say......!?

"With all this, we'll be able to get enough over the winter! Saint! Use it to the full!

"Elron, you're him...!

It's a real elf!

Inspiration and a sense of union led me and Elron to hold each other tight.

"The head always keeps firewood for pottery kilns, right? Even loaded firewood...!

"Shh, shut up!

Through stove making, I realized that my bond with the elves was getting deeper.

"Ha, I'm home."

Beside the soaring bond between me and the elves.

Prati is back.

"From where?

Besides, after Prati, Oakbo, Gobuji and the Gayagaya.

Suddenly it got noisy.

Were we all out?

Where have you been?

"Sir, what's wrong with you? Hug Elron? Now you're turning Elron into a sideroom?

I won't!

I mean, don't say it like there's a side room besides Elron!

"Prati was the Oakbo. Where were you taking them?

Think about it, there's no way the orcs aren't involved in the architectural work of making stoves.

And yet you didn't have a presence because you were out and away?

"That's settled. It's winter time."

"Huh?"

"I ran into Eli last year by accident, so I have to be ready this year."

That's my wife, was it the same thing to think about?

Then you'll be surprised to see this!

Look but get a finished firewood stove!!

"So I've been digging and collecting a lot."

"Hmm?"

"Coal"

Coal!?

What the Oakbos are carrying in their luggage is a black stone.

Is that what coal is!?

Coal that burns well and powers trains and boats!?

"Well... where did that come from...!?"

"My teacher modified the cave dungeon so I could mine coal! So I interrupted you all today, Oakbo, and I've been digging around!

The amount of luggage trucks carrying coal that were likely to arrive next and overwinter was likely to be excellent.

The look on my face and Elron's face coals up enough to see that.

……

... After all, coal is more thermally efficient than firewood and charcoal, right?

Otherwise, the industrial revolution will not be established.

"Oakbo and the others made a coal stove! Now we won't freeze in the winter!!"

I was going to be able to stay warm this winter.

A lonely autumn breeze blew through me and the elves relentlessly.

For the record.

The mana metal used in the firewood stove was rugged and helpful to use even coal that emitted far higher heat than firewood without any problems.

I thought the firewood would be useless without any help, but as usual it is burned up in great numbers in the baked goods kiln of the Ellons.
