Sanzen no Souru Supina
Night ■211: Farming Agent
The days of learning and recuperation go on.
Every day in the aerial garden, an event happened like a wake-up call.
Knights of the Sludge (Ooze) and King of the Pigs (Oak King): Gouldveld's participation in the Roll Hunt was massive.
Impure King: The Sludge (Ooze) Knights, led by Cure The Baines, were united for the supreme purpose of great food, although the Goldbergs differed in their intentions to prevent the payment of stored food due to their own martial arts and the food situation of their battalions.
Although it was told by Goldberg, this aerial garden boasted of abundant nature and nurtured the wild animals that inhabited it.
Numerous wild birds, including deer and boars, were to be seen throughout the garden──, among── them migratory birds, including ducks.
Cure Thebaine says that once there were nearly 2,000 people living in this aerial garden.
This is comparable to the population of a medium-sized citadel city and its surroundings on the Idaleia Peninsula, where the Ashleys live.
If the potential supply capacity of the aerial garden that has supported the population is available, even the knights of the sludge (Ooze) will be able to absorb the food situation of the Ashleys' battalions with fewer than 200 people at most.
That, of course, would be true if there were an appointed food producer.
The only people who had worked in agriculture in this battalion were Norman, an ex-peasant who had served in the Caterpillar Hospital, and Barton, the butler of the Barrage family.
In any case, hunting must be a matter of growing grain to make bread, which is the staple food.
"I've helped out with the Village... but I'm here." This was a blind spot. "
At best, it would have been better to think of only a small squad of fewer than twenty people. A different dimension of heavy responsibility has been placed on the internal affairs part all at once.
Taking into account even the food of the sludge (Ooze) knights, the burden suddenly swelled tenfold.
Hog Demon King (Oak King): Even though the stockpile of Goldberd's pantry is huge, the speed at which 200 people eat three or more meals a day is unmatched.
It was certain that serious food shortages would reappear if we did not fight them.
Food... it was the dragon princess, Urdo, who unexpectedly saved Ashle, who was particularly bothered by the grain situation.
"I'll tell you why the dragons didn't have any trouble eating."
The dragon princess pushed her chest against Ashlee as she said so.
Indeed, Ashlee thought.
The dragons, as kings, each owns their own aerial gardens.
There was a kingdom, a king's dragon subordinate, but in Isla Hyperia, for── example, there were 2,000 people living there.
Humans cannot live by eating the clouds.
Even the dragon, I guess.
If so, I wanted to produce food somewhere.
However... the Dragon Clan uses humans as their subordinates.
Not as an agricultural worker, but as a court man on his side.
In these days, farmers do not work in one way or another.
I don't know what percentage of the people served in the court... For example, if half of the people served in the court were taken, the food situation would normally collapse.
In human society, the same number of people as the peasants will live in the court, so it is not very important, but it cannot be covered.
In particular, the dragon race considered exhaustion to be a virtue no matter what.
Urd himself told me that they held feasts and evening parties quite often.
There was no doubt that there was some teasing.
There's a secret, or something like that.
"Leave it to me, I'll show you the secret."
The dragon princess took it upon herself to walk in the front yard of the palace and suddenly thrust her hand into the bush.
Well, it wasn't long before Urd pulled up... the human child was so big that he sat down with his limbs round... and the moss clumped.
"Eh, that's it?!" said Urdo, smiling at Ashlee in amazement and throwing it away.
In a hurry, Ashlee runs out and takes it.
Heavy, and soft, and slightly warm?!
"Wow, what is this? What is this, ah, is this warm?!"
"Didn't I tell you, Ashlee?" This is our faithful undercover...... Farming Agent...... Fudge. "
"Farming Agent? Agricultural Agent? Abbreviated fudge?!"
"I don't know what that means. But since ancient times, they have managed our dragon aerial gardens. I told you before, in the Dragon Sanctuary."
"I'm sure you did," recalled Ashlee.
That's right, the mad smaugard put not only the artificial life form in the hands of humans as its material... in the flow of stories.
But,
"What are you going to do with this?" Wow, it's moving. It's soft! Are you kidding me?! This isn't a mocktail, it's a fur?! "
"Don't panic, Ashley Dow. This is a moss. My moss buddies moved like this in a group. Let's divide each role... is it a group organism? It was an artificial life form made entirely of moss. That's Fudge, the gardener who was born with the knife.”
"Is this the fudge?! So this thing has been wandering around the front yard of the palace?!" I had no idea. "
“That's right. Unless they're ordered to, it's their job to keep the landscape of the garden invisible. Besides, if I stayed still, I could only see the moss hardening. In addition, these people are not limited to the front yard, but there are a few different types of objects lying on the grassland and in the forest."
"In the meadow and in the forest... are they all over this garden?"
"I don't know. Try to find the bushes around here." There should be dozens of them lurking around here alone. "
"What... do you mean..."
"It's really alienating around here." Very well, Ashley Dow. I will educate talented people about the governance and mechanism of the aerial garden directly there, so thank you very much. This is necessary for the future, for the development of the Kingdom, and for the upbringing of the offspring. "
"The Kingdom... I see... this is already a country." Even if it's small. "
In response to Urd's words, Ashlee unexpectedly put his hand to his chin and thought about it.
So far, Aashre had pulled the squad by herself.
[Will] to fight the deception of the world sounds good, but in short, it is my own will.
Even if this whole world was the product of a lot of unconscious [wish], how can the actors who realized that their deception, that is, their own reality, was actually an opera set by someone, live in the future?
What do you want me to do?
Ashlee is still unable to answer that question immediately.
On the contrary, Ashlee will have to clash with the deception of the world and the forces that are trying to bring down the "Ideal Garden" as a reality.
Moreover, it is synonymous with destroying the world to which any servant of the battalion used to belong from the ground up.
Humans are creatures that can only live if there is something nearby.
No, it's easy to say that you can survive on your own, but it's a human line that you can't imagine the── Cataclysm── as if the ground were gone, that actually loses the foundation of the world.
Unconsciously believing in the values that he had always stood for and would never be lost, Aashre was destroying them.
Where do we stand instead of the lost scaffolding?
Urd's words showed the answer to Ashlee without any effort.
"I see... a country." We're going to be a country. "
The dragon princess strangely peered into Ashlee's face.
Ashle Dow, are you okay now?
"I'm sorry, I've only been taught." I see, I see. "
"I was seriously thinking about the world and the end of the battalion, so I thought I'd already realized it...."
Urd put his fists on his hips and sighed.
Is it synonymous with annexing our territory?
"Damn it, you're right, Urdo." I wasn't prepared for it. "
"Hmm, he's stunned. But all that was missing was the words, and your actions were already beginning to climb the monarch's steps. Very well, I will teach you how to follow the path of my king."
For now, it's a matter of growing and harvesting grain.
It seems that the production of wheat has been secured to some extent since the example of the Pork Demon King (Oak King) had plenty of noodles (bread)?
"Let's get in touch with Gouldverd for that." It's just... he might not give up claiming to be where he sourced his ingredients. "
"I see, that's an advantage. But that's why it's a fudge."
Fudge?
Where and what kind of work are they engaged in? If you were the current one, you would instantly know through the mortal remains of God ?
"Oh, did you have that hand?" By cross-referencing the distribution of labor and the distribution of the areas where they are located! "
"Yeah," Urd nodded.
"It looks like the rotation of your head is just as good." Then be hasty with good. "
The two of them immediately headed for the Dragon Sanctuary.
Note that the shortest route is from the back of the underground sewer in the example.
Knights of the Sludge (Ooze) Realm.
Ashlee's control of the You stabilized the warping and twisting of space-time, and the Passage was safely secured.
The two of them just confirmed the number and distribution of fujifilms and the allocation of work.
As a result, it became clear that in this aerial garden, a much larger variety of grains had been produced.
Rye, wheat, barley, nearly a dozen kinds of legumes, corn... fellows of land and paddy rice.
However, it was also found that most of them have now stopped production or have been kept in very low yields.
"This is..."
"This garden has been abandoned for a while. After I murdered Smaug, And for nearly a hundred years, there was not a single human."
And when Ashlee heard the murmur of Urd, that he had slain me, she decided not to hear it.
"If you keep producing food in the meantime... it's definitely useless... no, on the contrary, it can cause serious serial disorders."
"Conjunctive disorder?"
"If you overgrow the same crops in a row in the same field, you'll get sick of the plants."
Ashlee, who has also worked on the management of the estate, first taught the villa's farmers the harm, learned the detailed mechanism at the academy, and then actually measured and understood the land.
“That's why we keep the fields fallow every few years or replant and grow other crops to prevent that. That's what bean people have on their list.”
I just pulled up my eyebrows.
"I honestly don't know what it's like to be left alone for a hundred years..."
"But the only way the farmland will return to the forest is for the fudges to defend themselves." It is a life given and produced by the supreme command to raise the value of the kingdom's land and maintain it.... what's wrong with your face? "
"Yes," Ashlee nodded, responding to a query from Urd.
"It's life that makes it the supreme command to raise the value of the kingdom's land and maintain it..."
"Don't say sinful now, Ashle Dow." You are already a king. No matter who admits it, at the very least, I will affirm it. I, at the stage when I was ambushed, you were already king. I took the crown from my head, so be prepared for that level of ruthlessness! "
"Oh, no, not that."
Did you see Ashlee's attitude as weak, or did Ashlee nullify the dragon princess who ate her.
"It's not that. When you give birth to the Fudges, is that the supreme order? Can I add a little bit to it?"
"Want to add a little? No, I don't know. Honestly, I never thought about it. In the first place, the basic design is a complicated command sentence by the ancient ephthalmologists... so if it was a man like Smaugard... most dragon tribes would have used the chicks (templates) in their recipes as they were."
“What if I could read it and add a note?”
"You... what are you thinking?"
It was Urd's turn to pull up the eyebrows.
