In the morning two days after I decided to build a water wheel.

Ichiyoshi and Baretta kept their hips down side by side of the waterwheel installed on the riverside, each with a sharpen in his hand and a glimmer with his college notebook.

The task of spreading fertilizer has not yet been completed in the village, but at the recommendation of the village chief and other villagers, Barletta and the water wheel were to be prepared to be produced one foot away.

A good notebook depicts an illustration of a water wheel that has been repeatedly rewritten after erasing it many times with eraser, and the shape of the water wheel depicted is slightly different from that of the actual water wheel in front of you.

The illustration shows that there is one shape that looks directly at the water wheel from the top, and one shape that looks directly from the side, and the dimensions are lined up with filled everywhere, and there is an atmosphere such as drawings.

Apart from that, it also depicts an illustration like the one seen from the diagonal front of the translucent water wheel, this one is not filled in with any dimensions, etc., and only the characteristics of its shape are easily understood.

Sometimes my father works in a town factory with metal pulling properties, and I've been helped several times to draw simple drawings, but the experience helped.

This is how they were drawn up, and now they are reviewing it.

Barletta's university notebook says Hiragana vertically in order of fifty tones, and next to Hiragana it says what corresponds to each letter in this world.

While looking at the college notes, Baretta is studying Japanese while deciphering the text of a book titled "How to Start a Popular Cafe" that she brought with her, but it contains quite a few unfamiliar words, so she reads it with a good question each time.

Reference books such as science and arithmetic for elementary school students have also been brought from Japan, but this time the study of Japanese meant that I brought the book, which Barletta was most interested in because of the beautiful photographs.

Only a few pages, but next to kanji and katakana, Ichiyoshi fumbled in advance, so you can read them all compared to the notebook.

"Mr. Kazura, what does this drink called herbal tea taste like?

When Ichigo was reviewing the drawings he had finished drawing, Valletta opened a page that said "particular herbal tea" and asked questions.

That page contains pictures of herbal teas in a bright red hibiscus blend.

"The one in that picture contains a flower called Hibiscus, which tastes pretty sour. There are many other herbal types, each with different flavors and aromas... I wonder if it would be difficult to tell if I could explain them by mouth. I'll bring it from the country next time, shall we have a drink together?"

"What, are you serious?!? Thanks!

To a good suggestion, Barletta happily broke her face.

It has only been about half a month since Ichigo came to this world, but I feel I have been able to crack it down with the villagers, especially Barletta.

When I first met him, I was pretty reluctant to treat him well, but these days it's gone too.

Incidentally, the story I've heard from the village chief during this time is that Barletta will be sixteen this year.

"That's right, and I'd like to use a nail on the next water wheel I make, is it in the village?

"My father did have it, but I don't think there was that many. How many do you use?

"Eh, I guess I'll use over a hundred..."

If it's true, I wish I could make it without nails, but it's still easier to use nails and I can secure them for sure.

It would be easier if I brought it from Japan, but I would only be selling iron nails to Japan.

I might as well punch the nail deep, but in case they look so detailed, I'd like to use a bronze nail from this world if possible.

"I don't think you had a hundred bottles...... if you go to the city you'll get them, so now you're going to speak to the villagers and get ready to go to the city"

"Is there a city nearby?

Ichigo reacted sensitively to the word city.

I've only seen this village of Grisea since I came to this world, so if there's a city nearby, I'd like to see it.

There will be quite a few people in the city, and it will be much more prosperous than here.

"Yes, two days on foot, there is a city called Isteria, which is ruled directly by Master Narson. There are lots of stores, so they sell nails."

"I see... is that city a pretty big city?

"Right, it's the biggest town in Lord Narson's ruling area. There are a lot of big buildings, and there's no comparison to this village."

A good curiosity was violently stimulated by Barletta's explanation.

Originally, I wanted to look around this world, so I couldn't help but notice that there was a big city.

"... I'd like to go to Isteria too, can't I?

"Eh."

Ichiya hastily connects words to Barletta, who gives her a bewildered look.

"Of course I'm not going in this outfit. Even so, I have to borrow my clothes from someone..."

"Oh yes...... so I'll talk to my father about the clothes"

Barletta had internal trouble with the offer she didn't expect to keep up with the city, but she couldn't help but ask for a favor.

Besides, I can't just admit that I'm still wearing the clothes that Best Liang is wearing right now, but if you're going to change clothes, it's not much different from a normal villager, so I thought maybe it would be okay.

"Excuse me, please"

I bowed my head gladly when I heard that response. For the record, Baretta still wanted to talk to her father once.

"Mr. Kazra's in Isteria, too?

"Yeah, he said he was going to change his clothes too, so I told him I was taking him..."

After lunch that day, Barletta was consulting the village chief in the living room on the content of his interactions on the river.

By the way, Ichiyoshi says, "Draw a part diagram" and puts it in his room.

"Well, if you're going to change your clothes, you're not going to be able to catch your eye in the city, are you? After that, I hope you're careful not to act like Mr. Kazra stands out in the city."

"Yeah...... but I guess it's okay......"

The village chief laughed bitterly at Barletta, who was still anxiously leaning down.

"What are you so worried about? Mr. Kazra is that Graciol, isn't he? There's no way I'm going to end up that bad. Besides, if you would follow me, I wouldn't have to worry about being attacked by a beast on the road, and on the contrary, I'd appreciate it."

In the words of the village chief, Barletta...

"Yeah, you're right"

and raised his face.

"Well, I'll tell the villagers we're going to the city. After that, they'll catch Arcadian worms."

"Uhm. Then I'll have some firewood."

Thus, a small trip to Isteria was decided after a successful conversation in an unknown place.

"Well, is it in Isteria? It's been a long time."

Barletta, who left the mansion, was gathering personnel to go around the villages' houses to Isteria.

It will be a two-day journey on foot, so it is to act as a group for safety on the road.

It also has the purpose of taking as many items as possible for sale in the city by deciding on the sharing of luggage.

"Yes. So why don't you join Mr. Rosru if you like? Mr. Kazura will come with you."

When Roslu heard it, he leaked his voice, "Oh."

"If Master Kazura will go with you, you can rest assured that something will happen. Okay, I'm just about out of firewood, and I'm coming with you."

"Good. Please leave early in the morning the day after tomorrow."

Barletta went to the woods to catch Arcadian worms for sale in the city when she mounted her promise in solidarity with several villagers after this.

When the view from the fenced window of the room began to stain the sunset color, Ichigo finally finished drawing the parts diagram and stretched his back.

Although the drawing on the university notebook is a lot of miscellaneous parts diagram, the shape of each part is simple, and there are few points to put in the dimensions, so there are no problems.

Besides, I don't demand so much accuracy on the parts, so of course I haven't put in the tolerances (tolerances for dimensions that can be misaligned).

When Ichigo was reviewing the parts diagram, the door in the room was knocked.

"Go ahead -"

When Ichiyoshi hung up on the knocked door, Barletta came into the room with a set of clothes in her hand.

"Mr. Kazra, it's about the Isteria, but we're leaving early the morning after tomorrow. These are my father's clothes, but use them."

"Is it true! Thanks!

Yiliang received the village chief's clothes from Barletta, like a child, "Yay!" and rejoiced.

Anyway, it's my first trip to another world, and it's my first trip to a big city.

In the meantime, I couldn't see Isaac when he came to the village, but if I went to the city, I would be able to see people of all occupations.

Maybe I can see someone like a guard with swords, spears and other weapons, and the building has a lot of big stuff, so Ichigo's heart started pounding now.

"So, while Mr. Kazra is away from the village, I have to instruct the people left in the village to work on the water wheel."

"Oh, well, I get it. Tomorrow, let me talk to the villagers."

"Please. So, should we go to the living room because we can have dinner?

After this, the village chief and Barletta answered the question politely, one by one, while slightly surprised to ask the question about Isteria at the dinner table.
