Magical Device Craftsman Dahlia Won’t Hang Her Head Down Anymore
370. Consultation meeting on measures to combat pigeons
When the meal is finished, clear the top of the top plate and place the tea and cookies.
From here, Randolph would teach him about the pigeons - he sat back down and straightened his spine as he pulled out his notepad.
"Volff, Miss Darya, there's something I need to tell you first." The family decided that his brother would succeed the housemaster, and he came to the capital to join the monster crusade. Since then, I have never returned, so I will have knowledge until then. It may be a little old. "
“I don't care, you can tell me as much as you know.”
"I'm the same. I would be grateful if you could just tell me about the ecology."
When the two of them answered so, Randolph nodded.
Well then, from the basic point of view--
In this way, they explained the basic ecology of magic pigeons, flying using magic power to strengthen the body, possessing concealment magic depending on the individual, and possessing two places of residence in a flock.
Following this, I was also asked to tell me about my favorite bait.
"The demon pigeons are omnivorous and eat the same food as regular pigeons." I particularly like magical plants, small animals, and insect-shaped monsters. I used magic power when I was flying, so I thought I wanted to refill it. I also eat potions of medicinal herbs, but I also like black mosses that live in the border forest, valley mosses (goji mosses) in neighboring countries, and larvae such as magic silkworms (mackerels) and valley mosses (goji moss bugs). "
"...... Valley Moss Bug......"
A shiny black insect floated in my brain -- a fast-legged wobble from my previous life.
After all, the pigeons liked the magic bait.
Is there any way to keep the pigeons from coming?
"You must thoroughly clean up the shit and leave no feathers, no smell." It also has a certain effect to eliminate the smell with strong alcohol. "
It seems to have a certain effect on alcohol disinfection.
Darya wrote it down in her notepad.
"When the first one comes, it's best to take countermeasures, but we don't know if the damage will increase."
"Sure..."
"However, in the case of demon pigeons, they are often already certified as feeding grounds." To share information on feeding grounds with herds. "
It has become a terrible story.
The Green Slime Dried Slime Farm is most likely shared with the Magic Pigeon as a feeding ground.
Randolph, I've been reading about bird carcasses as a measure against bird damage, but does it work against magic pigeons?
Stop it. In some cases, it will be a battle with a dove.
Is that a battle?
"It's like retaliation. They sometimes attack with a herd of dung." Neighborhoods have been damaged for years. "
The pigeons were vengeful. Moreover, it is a long-term sustainable type.
I unexpectedly saw Volff's face.
"Volff told me that he wanted to hear about the demon pigeon outside the royal castle. Is there something confidential about magic tools?"
Yeah.
"The breeding of magic pigeons is a joint venture between the family and neighboring counts, to be exact. The two families needed to exchange monstrous information frequently through the forest at the border. It became a pigeon from a pigeon to a demon pigeon, and it is stored in various places. If there seems to be a problem, please let me know as much as possible. If necessary, I will sign the temple contract."
"I don't need it. I can trust Randolph, so I'd like to talk to him." I also got permission from Dr. Jonas. "
"I'm grateful."
Then Darya brought documents and explained.
That the dried green slime is targeted by magic pigeons, that it is not only wild, but also mixed with aristocratic magic pigeons, and that it is repeated--
Randolph listened with a serious expression without touching tea or cookies.
"I like dried green slime... I see, if it comes from a herbal pancake, it will be damaged by a demon pigeon." Young wild pigeons may be lured by the black moss of the forest to avoid thickening blood. It seems to be more effective than life. "
Green slime drying was a perfectly good example of bait. A demon pigeon was approaching.
After that, even if you catch a pigeon and use [intimidation], it will be forgotten in three days.
"No, I probably didn't forget the pigeons." You must have understood that if you were intimidated, you wouldn't be harmed. Rather, the young pigeon male is curious, so he may try again. "
"Let's try the liver..."
Volff convinced himself.
I want you to stop trying such a liver.
I want you to understand Jean's concern not to get hurt even if he scares me.
That's probably impossible because it's a bird.
Isn't there something called 'Pigeon Dodge'?
"If you lower the peeled skin or skin of Weyburn, the natural enemy of the demon dove, you will avoid it because of the smell." However, there were many individuals who had never met Weyburn, such as the demon pigeon in the Royal Capital, and the effect was slightly reduced. The best way to do this is to keep Weyburn nearby or have him stop by every other week, but it's going to be tough in Ordine. ”
"Darya, this is Weyburn from the Haldad Chamber of Commerce....."
"Volff, that story is over."
I replied with a smile to Volff, who said that the golden eyes would shine a little.
Still, I wanted you to be the dragon knight of the Rossetti Chamber of Commerce.
“If you've already been back and forth, you should deal with it as soon as possible. The longer the damage done by the pigeon, the more troublesome it becomes. In the neighboring countries, there are records of annual attacks on the breeding grounds of magic silkworms."
"So long? How much damage?"
"I heard that the tax revenues from the demon silkworms have decreased by 20%."
"That's pretty good..."
The magic silkworm is a monster that spits out the thread of a magic cloth that is much taller than silk.
Both breeders and the state are hit hard.
Randolph, what happened to the pigeon?
It was a wild pigeon, so it was annihilated by the herd.
It was truly a battle.
But if I can, I want to avoid that way.
It was also a magic pigeon that coexisted with humans and was useful as a means of communication.
"I hope there's a way to give up the green slime drying completely..."
"There is, I would like to keep it confidential as only the person concerned, although the amount will be bulky because of the individual response."
“Okay, I'll tell only those who need it. How do you do that?”
It seems that there is a good way. Darya continues with anticipation.
The eyes of the red tea that looked at me became even colder.
After breaking both wings of the pigeon, I potioned it and healed it.
"Wow..."
"Ahh..."
Volff and I spoke in a subtle voice.
"Those who break their wings are basically intimidated and physically strengthened." After I folded it, I took the time to apply the potions while watching the condition, and I checked that it was completely healed and released it. They say there are no dead individuals. "
"Oh, I'm sorry! Is there a slightly more convenient way?"
Surely they will never come again. It was a trauma for the pigeons.
I feel so sorry for you.
"I think it's awful. But we need to manage more than just coexist. The pigeons were bred by the leaders of the demons. We could kill all the plumes with a few damages."
Randolph, speaking in a quiet voice, felt ready to live with the animals.
Darya reconstructs her perception that it is not easy to say that she is poor.
"Well, don't you think it's a last resort? even if you come in a flock of people to retaliate....."
“There's no record of retaliation, but it's definitely a way to avoid it.”
As long as the wings are fully healed, the damage may be neutralized.
Fear was all that remained of the pigeons.
"Fear... Lord Randolph, is there anything else that the dove doesn't like or avoid besides Weyburn?"
He laid his hand on his chin and began to think with his eyes down on the red tea.
"The sky bat (sky bat) doesn't eat meat even when it's hungry." But even if you lower the skin of the Sky Bat, there's no escaping it. ”
The meat of the sky bat (Sky Bat) is said to have a persistent bitterness similar to that of astragalus, making it difficult to understand the taste of food.
Even with a certain amount of magic power, I dodged the magic pigeons in the boulders.
Why don't you apply the powder of the sky bat (Skybat) meat to the surface of the dried slime?
“That's right, you might want to cover some of the dried slime as a trap-like bait.”
Because it is a dried slime that wants to minimize impurities, it is impossible to use all of them, but it may be useful.
There is a possibility that I will go to the next place just by touching it once.
"It's not limited to demon pigeons, but if it's a bird, I don't like the wind disturbing me." The pigeon uses magic power on its wings as it tries to take off, so if the wind suddenly changes, it may not move, or the direction may go crazy. Many individuals avoid narrow valleys and other places where the flow of wind is complicated. "
"I see..."
If it is a blower, it is within the range of magic tools.
I don't know if I can create a wind flow that the doves hate, but it's worth a try.
"Oh, so the squadron pigeon went berserk when they tried to dry it with a hairdryer?"
It was because it was hot, wasn't it?
"I flew in the rain and my body was cold, so I followed you... but I didn't think it was that hot because I pointed it at the place where Miro-senpai was holding it in his hand."
"You've been given quite a pair of gloves. Even though it's an important glove for the Bowknight."
I think more about the two of you.
At this time, it may be a good idea to mix the warm and cold air.
And then suddenly I remembered.
The bowknight Milorestano mastered the windswept magic bow.
His gloves were definitely made of Weyburn leather for the deer (Fangdia).
What if the dove smells like Weyburn?
"Eh... I don't think so." Because the scary smell comes from you. "
"Until the smell disappears, other demon pigeons will be able to avoid it." Magic pigeons have a good sense of smell. I might take a dip. "
"Well then, why don't you rub Weyburn's leather firmly on the caught pigeon and put the smell firmly on it?" When I come here, I think the flock of pigeons will hate me, so why don't I come? "
"... Darya..."
"... Miss Darya..."
I hope you two don't turn a blind eye to the unfamiliar.
Maybe it's better than getting your wings broken.
Can't you break your heart instead of your wings?
"It looks like it's breaking." But it's cheaper. "
Somehow I feel like a very bad person.
However, it is only a hypothesis. When I got here, it was just a trial and error.
"In the meantime, I'll put Weyburn's peeled skin and skin nearby, spread the powder of sky bat (skybat) meat on the dried slime to create a bad trap, use a blower to create a wind flow in the room with warm and cold air, and then add the smell of Weyburn to the captured pigeon - let's talk to Idea and the others to see if we can try this." If you don't try it, you won't know. "
At once, the two people in front of me agreed.
It was Randolph who made the proposal.
"I think we should share information with each other in the future. With the permission of Professor Jonas, head of the Scalfalot Armaments Workshop, I would like to advise my father to enter into a confidentiality agreement with a formal information partnership."
Thank you, Mr. Randolph.
"As soon as I get permission, I'll fly a letter to my father. Ah, maybe the dove will stop by to eat the dried green slime too....."
I laughed with Volff so that he could make me laugh.
It's a possible story.
"But you can't really say the magic pigeon." Human beings are also vulnerable to tasty food. "
"That's right." Good things are caught by people. Extra if you like. "
While listening to the conversation between the two, Darya drinks a cup of tea that is vaporized.
In my head, the items in the proposal for countermeasures against pigeons were starting to line up.
