"Um, Mr. Fermo, are you nervous?"

"Darya-san, don't be nervous here..."

Next to him, Fermo, a knick-knacker, returned a blurry voice.

Not your usual work clothes, but a white shirt with a hard collar and a moss green suit.

This room is a separate residence of the Skalfarot family and a military arsenal workshop.

Darya has been to the other house quite a few times, so she's starting to get used to it.

Even so, I bowed my head back to the maid and servant in the hallway.

"The servant of another house thinks that it is the same as the furniture except when necessary", it was in the courtesy book.

It is very difficult for me to feel that way.

"Fermo, this is the second time, so let's open it up again."

Ivano, next to Darya, said without suppressing his voice.

The other day, Ivano and Fermo greeted the Scalfalott family - to be precise, Guido and Jonas.

However, if you look back at yourself, you can see that you can't get used to it twice.

I recommend black tea to Fermo, who has overstepped his spine, and drink it myself.

After talking for a while, I heard a knock.

It was Jonas and Augusto, the vice president of the Adventurer's Guild.

Today Jonas has a black grey suit and a black shirt. The atmosphere looks different from that of the servant's clothes.

"Sorry, I'm late."

― Director Jonas, I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

"Excuse me... I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Jonas whispered to the side.

Perhaps because Darya and the others had a strange look on their faces, Augusto narrowed his eyes and laughed at the red tea.

"The director of Jonas's workshop is the son of the Marquis of Dratsi, and he was a counsellor to the Scalfarot family, so he is making a" choice of words "."

“I'm still unfamiliar with it, so I'm sorry for the inconvenience - no, I'm not sure about my job, so let's not worry about talking about it here. I don't want to waste your time.”

Jonas was a son of the Viscount family, a squire, and a counsellor of the Marquis family. Perhaps we also need to change the wording.

However, the red rusty eyes drifting with fatigue are unexpected.

Darya called out to Augusto.

"Lady August, thank you for the eagle lion (griffon) the other day." It was a very good material. "

"I'm glad about that. Please help us develop, Chairman Rossetti."

With a gentle smile in a dark blue suit, it is not surprising that he is said to be a civil servant of the Imperial Castle.

If I hadn't known, I wouldn't have been the Vice President of the Guild of Adventurers.

Darya and Fermo were called today to consult with the Armory Workshop - I hear that the main person consulted is this Augusto.

"You're the manager of Gundorphy Workshop, right?" I am Augusto Scarlatti, Vice President of the Adventurer's Guild. ”

“Thank you for your greeting. My name is Fermo from Gundolfi Workshop. Thank you very much."

The first meeting is between the two of them.

Fermo returned the greeting in a stiff voice and stretched his spine as he sat back in the chair.

"Well, today we are here to discuss whether we can improve the spray trap called" Mist Trap (Nebel Phare) ", which is a monster evasion, for birds, or whether we can ask you to develop new things."

For the birds?

Fermo cuts the word and listens back.

The Mist Trap (Nebel Phare) is a spray trap for monsters and animals.

When I went to the Big Pig ranch before, Darya prototyped it, and the first name I came up with was "Black Pepper Water Spray Trap" ---

When monsters and animals approach and step on the switch sheet on the ground, they pour water out of the magic stone of the water heater, mix black pepper, and vigorously pour it out of the nozzle that becomes a mist. That's all.

The animals and monsters that bathed in black pepper water won't come to the same place first.

It's a stone's throw away from animals and monsters, so the ranch and village won't be razed.

It was relatively simple, and Fermo was involved in the early stages of production.

However, after that, the latest sprayer function was added, and the product became easier to use.

It is only natural that someone with knowledge of the road should offer an improvement.

That's why I felt like I was far away from my own hands - but the fog trap (Nebel Phare) doesn't have [for birds].

“It's the slime farm that's been damaged. The slime in the building was fine, but the slime that was drying outdoors using wind magic was targeted. I particularly like green slime.”

I was convinced by Augusto's explanation.

When I dried the slime with the nucleus on the roof of the green tower and in the garden, the birds often came to nibble.

The most popular was certainly Green Slime.

"It seems that they can dry indoors, but only green slime is best done outdoors, under the sun, and dried by wind magic."

Will photosynthesis proceed while drying, or is it the effect of ultraviolet light?

And when Darius was thinking of such a thing, he continued to speak.

“An eye-catching bird avoidance - a black and yellow circle, but it took me a few days to get used to it. I also tried to put bird food and fruits a little further away by diving into the net or grabbing them with my mouth, but I was aiming for green slime with no eyes.”

Green slime is too popular. How delicious is that?

With all due respect, it seems that it would be faster to shoot them down with a magic bow than with a trap?

Would you like me to explain the details to you, Director Jonas?

"--Yes, I can't answer without knowing what's going on."

August confirms Ivano's words.

Jonas put a beat down and gave back his approval.

"Normal birds can be removed by magical guards, but the problem is that the [Magic Pigeon] started to mix with them."

Magic pigeons are bird-shaped monsters. Like the pigeons of the previous life, it is also a means of communication.

But are the wild doves so strong or troublesome?

The only thing in the monster atlas was that it had a long and fast flight distance.

Thinking like that, Fermo, who had been silent until now, let out a short, long breath.

Auguste put her hands firmly on the table.

The red tea's eyes overlapped with a slight faintness.

"Some individuals have mild concealment magic, so if you don't get close, you may not know." The first thing I dropped was a chamber pigeon. Next, he mistook the noble pigeons for ravens. They all come with an ankle ring. ”

A pigeon with an ankle ring attached to it is a magic pigeon with a letter attached to it for communication.

Is the dried green slime delicious enough to bother you to stop by and eat at the slime farm while you're on the move?

“If you make a mistake, it could be an aristocratic or international problem, and the Green Slime Farming business could be crushed.”

"Ah....."

I didn't mean to tell you that I couldn't carry the letter.

If you accidentally drop it, and if you hang a lot of green slime, you might catch a pigeon.

Shutting down the means of communication and leaking information is a terrible thing.

"As a future measure, we will disperse the sites that dry green slime. It will be divided between the west and east of the capital, but it will take some time for the permits and construction to be completed. Until then, the pigeon needs to come back alive, thinking it's dangerous to get close to those that have dried green slime.”

"Um, the fog trap (Nebel Phare) works with a weight on the ground, so I was wondering if it would be difficult to apply it with a magic pigeon......"

What kind of magic tool could do such a thing to a demon pigeon?

As Darya finished his troubles, Fermo raised his hand slightly.

Master Scarlatti, with all due respect, have you reported to the Royal Castle yet?

“Internally, instead of taking full control of the dried green slime, we have a four-month grace period.”

“I can help if you want. However, please do not add our workshop."

"Thank you, Gundolfi Workshop Leader." Under those conditions, the price will be paid legitimately. The contract is-- "

"Ivano, please."

When it was decided to flow, Augusto stood up to thank him.

And Darya and the others looked down on his back unto the corridor.

When he got to the table again, Darya gently opened the notepad.

I wrote down my thoughts on the improvement of the fog trap (Nebel Fare).

It might be more important to look into the habits of a new product, or a pigeon, rather than improving it - looking next to it, Fermo narrowed his eyes at Jonas in front of him.

Did you know about this?

"Fermo...!"

Ivano shortly calls his name.

But Fermo wouldn't even look at you.

Instead, Jonas answered without expression.

I've been asking all the time.

Then ─ ─ I know it's disrespectful, but I think I should explain it to Chairman Rossetti first.

"I'm sorry..."

"I won't be apologizing!"

Jonas's words of apology are overturned with a voice.

The Marquis's son is a counsellor, so he was just pointed out to avoid apologizing first.

In the first place, I have nothing to apologize for.

“Well, if we run out of green slime farming, other slime farming is important. Both Dr. Jonas and Mr. Augusto are related to the Armory Workshop, and I don't know if they will be able to create an alternative spray trap, but Fermo, no, I'd like to do my best with the Gundolfi Workshop Manager."

Even if you panic, it's only natural.

At the very least, I would like to have the vocabulary to translate it into a product, but I don't have that either.

"Thank you, Mr. Darya."

"If Chairman Rossetti says so, I 'll--"

Darya felt a little relieved while listening to the courtesy and consent.

Ivano, who is always ready to bridge, is just watching us.

I'd like to think that this decision was passed for the time being, but I'll ask you in the carriage on the way home.

Then, after confirming the appointment and typical greeting, they decided to leave the room.



Behind Darya, Ivano and Fermo follow.

Jonas headed in the opposite direction of the corridor.

Jonas called out to Fermo as he split from side to side in front of the door.

"Chief Gundolfi, excuse me for today."

"No, I'm sorry." Chairman Rossetti said, "I wonder if you're treating me like a fellow-"

“My people, it's my mistake to explain to you how far I've been lost.”

I was too late to know, I didn't have enough time, I could give you as many excuses as I wanted.

But you could have shifted your time slightly and explained it.

Since I am the manager of the armouries workshop, it is natural that I have to go through my work colleagues, and it is my fault for failing to do so.

If you don't tell me, or if you get involved, I can't say that there was no such sweetness at all.

"Dear Dräzzi, if you are talking about a product, I suggest that you say it from the beginning: wash dredging (rough). In any case, it's a long way to get caught up in it. That's what I'm talking about, too."

"...... entanglement...... entanglement......"

It's too accurate and makes me laugh.

I managed to hold back and looked back, and my dark green eyes were laughing.

Oh, it looks like you're waiting for me.

Perhaps because of the distance, Darya and the others who went first look back and stop.

Excuse me, Fermo bowed and walked away.

Jonas stepped into the other corridor.

According to the investigation documents, Fermo Gandolfi was a little stubborn, but he could only read as a good craftsman - and Ivano would drag him all out.

The crew of the [more than one] ship has increased ─
