Asked by the liaison officer of the Illustrious Kingdom stationed in Ergin about the presence or absence of "novel alcohol" in a straightforward manner - after completely revealing the situation on the kingdom's side - the liaison meeting was: "Since the person here does not know the details of the situation, I asked the department in charge" - and I ran away.And all of this was told to Dolan and Crowe.....



"... I understand the circumstances... but as for Illustria, when do you expect to have a [novel] sake?"

It seems that it depends on the future negotiations... as soon as the snow melts in the year, it seems that international students will come sooner, so in line with that...

"After the snow melts, it's still in the middle of the year..."

”Hah... even if it looks like Illustria, it seems that Morphans know that it will be difficult during the year, and if it is realized by some mistake... it will be a long time ago...”

"Hmm..."

It was Horn who was talking to Crowe on the magic comms, but in this case, it seemed that the contact meeting was quite a headache.

It is true that the village of Dolan is conducting a prototype of the distillery, and it is also true that - unknowingly - Illustria and Morphan knew about it, but I didn't think that such an impossible challenge would arise.Moreover, the "novel sake distillation" that Illustria and Morphans believe is a non-fume technology is actually a result of Crowe's technology.

"... even if I were to explain the situation, there are parts where I don't know what's going on... but in the meantime, let's cooperate with Illustria."

I do not intend to make a difference in the decision at the liaison meeting, but the problem is the technical part.

"But when it comes to the end of the year... won't the Dolans be able to make a prototype in time?"

Doran's Toru has already been informed about distillation and lake bottom aging.It was a bait to encourage the technical development of the refrigerator...... it seems that the prototype of the distillery has a go-ahead because of their struggle.

That said, it was in May of this year that I provided information on lake bottom aging. The distiller was provided by Crowe. In terms of where Crowe, a foreigner, procured such a substitute from, although no one rushed into it at the earliest -, then I conducted a trial distillation and moved to the lake bottom aging test... and there was no way to collect it within the year.

It seems that Dolan's people are concerned about that too.Even if it is said that aging progresses due to storage at the bottom of the lake, there is no one who has ever drunk something called aged distilled wine... so I can't predict what it will taste like. "

"Hmm..."

"As for beer, there are things that have been devised, such as using rye, so it seems that they can be described as" novel alcoholic drinks "......"

“There's no point in letting Illustria or Morphin down here, even if it's harmful.”

"... do you have any thoughts about the spirit user...?"

"It's not that I don't have it, but I want to check it before I do.Is the brewing ingredient available in Dolan's village? ”

{"Oh, no... actually that's a concern... I think we've arranged for wheat and rye for beer, but I'm afraid that if we turn some of it into distilled wine, it might interfere with beer production.... no matter how much beer I make, it's not enough. ”

In that situation, it seems that Mr. Doran's true intention is to be able to conduct a new sake brewing test.

"After all... actually, molasses come out as a surplus after making horns and sugar... but it can also be used as a raw material for alcohol."
