18-02 Rainy Day

Rarely, the kingdom of Klein was rain.

The eastern part of the Lauren continent, home to the Kingdom of Klein, has low precipitation in the plains. Instead, it rains and snows clustered in mountainous areas.

This rain and snowmelting water moisturizes the plains by becoming rivers and undulating water.

Each city secures water by digging wells.

Pumps made by Jen last year and sold by the Raglan Chamber of Commerce became instantly popular for these reasons.

"Fall rain?"

Gloria Allstatt, deputy captain of the Klein Kingdom Kingsguard Women's Knights, who was looking out the window, was off duty that day.

"You don't have to be dusty, but this doesn't bother you to run in..."

As a routine workout, she is indispensable for a ten kilometer run in, but just didn't feel like running in the cold rain.

"... would you care for a sword on a day like this?"

The steel sword is vulnerable to moisture and rust floats quickly. To prevent it, apply the oil taken from the fruit of Chemeria (a plant similar to Tsubaki) and prevent rust. This oil is a non-dry (non-stiff) oil and is also used for hair oil.

The oil-drawn sword does not rust, but it needs to be wiped off regularly and cleaned before applying new oil because it adsorbs dust and gradually darkens.

It is in a way a laborious and cumbersome task, but Gloria, a sword maniac, was happy to do it.

Gloria's appearance has bright brown hair made into berry shorts, eyelids of colour and is 168 cm tall. The tight body sizes B83, W57 and H82 can be said to be ideal.

but there was not one story that floated even now that I was 23 years old because of its disastrous character.

"This sword made by Lord Jin is still different in character..."

Once, a giant scissor, a sword that didn't pull a single step against its' Giganto Avrum 'opponent. It is a sword of structure sandwiched with steel a thin sheet of Adamantite.

The steel part is also resistant to rust because it is nickel steel. Almost a maintenance-free sword.

After feeling relaxed for the first time in a long time, Gloria was wholeheartedly continuing to take care of her sword.

"... it's raining"

Toka Village Lords, Lisia Farheit groaned as she looked up at the lead sky depressingly.

"You can't prune wheat"

Rain during the spring wheat harvest season sown in the spring is unusual.

After harvest, pruning has been raining for the last five days, even though sunny weather is desirable because of the need for drying.

"... yields are not expected to be good. Is this the first year? …"

Licia frowns in good shape, in front of the books. Mouth the teacup placed beside him, but it was already chilled out.

"… could this' tea 'also be a product?"

Drinking in the village of Toka is also tea made from 'Perch', just like in the village of Kaina.

Licia was in a trial and error wondering if she could add herbs to this to increase the value of the product. I'm getting to the point where it's going to be for sale in a little while.

"Dear Liscia, I see the village chief."

"Yes, let me through."

Fred, a secretary apprentice, announced the village chief's visit.

Fred was an apprentice knight, but Licia, who saw him as more capable of the clerical system than the martial arts, pulled through and was in the process of educating him as a secretary. However, because Lisia herself was immature, she often failed by two people.

"Excuse me, lord."

Braak, the village chief of Toka, came into the room. As soon as I give my regards to Lysia, I'll just get to work.

"It's about wheat this spring."

Lysia was just thinking about it, so I encourage her to go ahead.

"The pattern is good, but I can't prune it because of the long rain. But I decided it was not a good idea to leave it alone."

"What do you mean?

With regard to agriculture, Lisia is also a good place for amateurs. I don't know what the village chief wants to say, as if I don't know.

"Assuming the rain continued like this, there could be mildew and waste on the wheat because of it"

"Is it mold..."

Another growing number of troubled species, Lisia.

"Previously, even though the harvest has decreased somewhat, I've pruned it while it's clear..."

It suddenly rained this year, so I missed the timing.

"The village chief will know more about that, so I'll take care of it."

I just had to say that, too, as Lisia.

The village chief left with the knowledge of the commission. It was still raining outside the window.

It was also raining in Penglai.

Mount Penglai smoking in the rain, Jen's Hall at its foot.

"'Full Speed (Ferrigenesen)'"

"………"

"Brother Jin, are you okay?

"Father, are you okay?

I kept hanging the healing magic for eighteen days.

Because the majority of cells made up of demonic atoms (maggiatoms) had been activated, the pain that arose when healing magic had also been reduced considerably.

It's just a slight pain now.

"Oh, I'm fine. It still hurts a lot less."

"... will be fully healed in two more times"

"Oh, thank you, Elsa"

"Yeah."

Even as Jen, I felt much lighter.

Previous analogies, 'like wearing super-precise prostheses', have been eliminated.

No matter how high the performance, the prosthetic hand is the prosthetic hand. It is no match for the original flesh.

And as the cells were activated and tamed with the flesh, Jen's physical function was also improving.

In the first place, 'Magi mitochondria' in Jen's somatic cells is ultra-high performance. Perhaps that was also taken in at the time of the summons, but what matters at this time is the result.

Once a Magician (Magicraftsman) Mutual Aid Society (Guild) in the Kingdom of Egerea, it was Jen who overflowed the circuit of Donna, an automatic doll (Automata) that combined measuring instruments when measuring the amount of magic (Mana) conversion to be exact.

With the activation of cells made up of demonic atoms (maggiatoms), their function has been further improved, but so far nothing has noticed it.

Because there are only advantages and there is nothing inconvenient about it, no one has tried to look into it, and Jen is likely to be a little further away from realizing it.

"... it's still raining today"

Jen shrugged as she looked out the window after the day's treatment.

"This humidity to this temperature.... you're about to grow mold..."

Jen cares about unusual weather conditions.

"Yeah, I'm a little stifling"

Elsa doesn't seem to like being damp either.

"Er, then..."

Penglai's warehouse is thermostatic and humid, and the temperature and humidity are kept constant.

but the village of Kaina is not.

"Air conditioning...... I hope that has a desiccant"

"A desiccant?

Elsa, too, knows what it is, but she didn't know how to make it.

"Because of this, let's also speak to Saki and Toa."

"... yeah"

From the hall to the lab, I don't like walking in the rain, so Jen and Elsa use the small transfer gate (warp gate) to travel to the lab, along with Reiko.

"Oh, Jin, what's wrong with you today?

"Elsa and Reiko are with me. Is something wrong?

Looks like Saki and Toa were having some sort of meeting or discussion. A thin sheet of note paper substitute is scattered over the workbench.

"No, it's been raining like this and it looks humid, so I thought I'd make some desiccant too"

"A desiccant?

"What's that?... Oh, I know the whole thing from words. I'd like to know more about it. Do you want to dry the room, or..."

"That's what you use for the food you're saving."

Don't let Toa tell everyone, Jen explained.

"I see, during the rainy season, the preservation of food is quite troubling, but is that what you use it for?"

Jin, can you help us?

"Of course. Engineering magic makes it easy, but then it's not common."

If Jen explains it that way, Toa nods loudly and agrees.

"I see, you want to be able to make it widely and generally. I'm willing to help."

Thus, in Penglai, desiccant production began in the rain.
