It Seems I Came to Another World, Now What Should I Do

Episode 641: I want an artillery family, so I'll make a stone thrower

"It's more like floating than flying."

"It doesn't make a difference to me either... I don't know if people fly or float..."

Ness tilts her neck and looks like she can really do it.

"Earlier, we talked about cold air going downstairs. So what happens to warm air?

"You're going upstairs. You're talking about the fireplace, right?

"Yes. Exactly. So what happens if you make that warmer air hotter and collect it?

"The ability to float becomes stronger, and every object you collect and support floats..."

"Yes, sir."

"Hmm...... But it just floats. Does that make sense?

Ness squeaks at the thought face.

"Just floating has the advantage of not having to build tall buildings for reconnaissance...... Did you see the dragon? I was telling you."

"Whoa, I saw it. You're lying around the main hall.... No way...

Ness stares this one in the eye.

"That's right. The dragon side withstands an excess weight of about 300 kilos. The heavy loads will be boxed and carried, and it feels like people should have dragons pull them as long as they float."

"What are we gonna do about heating the air?

"I inflate it with wind sorcery and warm it with fire sorcery"

With that said, Ness gets a convincing look.

"What are the safety precautions? If you fall out of the sky, people won't get hurt, will they? If you fall from upstairs, you'll get hurt."

"It feels like throwing away the load the dragon has and landing it safely. This is transportable without worrying about the terrain between two and three people"

"Why are you so restrained in troop transport? Even horses and carriages...... Is there a chance of a meeting?

Ness turns his expression into something serious.

"I would appreciate it if not, but I see it as likely. He said mercenary guilds and conservatives would make for a troublesome situation. I have a former queen."

"Ah...... I bought a grudge. Talk. All right. Except this cloth specification says it's manufactured from a loom. That's where it takes time."

"I don't mind that. If not, I'll go with the positive method. Because I'm just saying an ambush is possible if there is one. If you can, I'd like this weapon first."

Look at the blueprint I gave you, Ness roars.

"Is this a derivation of a crossbow? But don't..."

"The requirements are met with crossbow strings, so I was wondering if it would be okay to use them as they are. With the current military academy, you can't take horseback riding precautions. It would be nice to have surface control with archers, but a crossbow is not enough. No problem if you can overwhelm them in numbers, but then it's more efficient to use stone debris as a shotgun to target them on the surface."

The blueprint describes a catapult. Since Trebuschet is desirable but requires considerable skill in operation, I am looking to operate the crossbow specifications and the close mangonel first. The landing point will also converge relatively, as stone specifications can also be operated with homogeneous objects if earthly magicians are used.

"We'll try to make this one first... I'll arrange it for the woodworkers."

"Thank you. Because I intend to arrange some numbers, and even amateurs have the strength to use manuals if they have one. Thanks for your trouble."

The main purpose of the catapult is to destroy the infrastructure, but I don't place that much emphasis on it because I honestly don't intend to attack it. Then it's quicker to build artillery that doesn't exist as a soldier and operate instead of mortars. The range will be considerably shorter if it is a shotgun, but if it can fly a hundred meters, it is your word, so I am wondering if it is possible.

"Then I'll visit you in the evening to see how the refrigerator looks again. Please don't open or close too much because the cold air escapes."

"Oh. I don't say that because I'm interested like a kid. Bye."

Dropped off by the bitter laughter Ness, after the workshop. Return to the hall and work in government affairs with Kabia.

"There are more applications for merchants to migrate than I expected, but what should I do..."

I'm reading the report and I'm confused by the number of people, including Dubteer.

"Reporting, as for Mr Fenn, you're talking about having a full grasp. Do you want to stop it once?

whine as Kabia checks another report.

"If we stop completely, that's going to have a negative impact first...... I'm guessing it's enough to have a little waiting period."

"Okay. Just tell them what you're looking for and let them wait a little longer."

It seems to be well known that both the Walanica and Dubtia sides would be more efficient in using this place for their doorways. Since warehouse streets are increasingly being used, they must be considered, including expansion.

"I wonder if there's almost no impact around the dragon"

"I gave you the announcement first, so you have no impact. If you start flying around a lot, it'll change the story again, but I'm sure you'll get used to it."

"Right. First of all, if you don't understand human customs, customs, there's nothing you can do. Oh, I'm going to try flying up to 'Fia' with Arcine soon, but can I ask for a saddle?

"Okay. Do you have a design or something?

"Oh, I made it. With this in mind, I want it to be generic and usable even if it changes in size."

With that said, give me the blueprint.

"It's more like holding it than crossing it."

"Because the wind pressure is going to get tight, and I feel like I'm going to fly away when I get speed. We'll start with a prototype, and we'll think about it."

So it feels like Kabia is going to think a little bit.

"I used to get a udon recipe, but your plea for more wheat usage is up. Buying from a baking guild is also a tax and a multiplier, so if you can, you want to buy it directly."

The udon is being tested for sale in a delightful neighborhood store, but it seems popular.

"I guess it's a little hard around wheat. If Norwegian can come, I'll talk to him."

Like that, we had lunch and the paperwork continued until the evening.

When I'm putting my work together that it's time to go see Ness, the sound of a knock sounds. Answer me, it looks like a dove arrived from Norwe. It's good to have you back with no problems.

"How dare His Excellency Count Norweh?

Hand over a small piece of paper to Kabia's inquiry.

"I guess I'm in a lot of a hurry. Sounds like he's already out at the time of putting this out."

"Ha... Right. I'm used to surprises, so I don't really feel it... We're talking on a continental scale..."

Kabia groans bitterly at each other.

"Just get ready for acceptance, could you please"

"Okay. This will arrive on the evening of the twenty-second. Prepare, proceed."

"Please."

Tell him so, and I'll leave the office behind. Okay, well, the refrigerator ale is waiting. I decided to head to the workshop.
