About four hours after Ichigo started the refrigerator.

In the courtyard of the Narson mansion, Reese, who had completed her daily early morning training, had received a towel from Eira.

A skinny one-handed sword is inserted into Reese's hips, and a small circular shield is erected on the nearby tree.

Apparently, I was training with swords today, not short spears.

"Dear Leese, good luck. How was your day?

"Yeah, just. I was better at swords."

Reese answered Eira as she wiped the sweat flowing down her neck muscle with the towel she received.

There is a tradition that those born into the Istell family must be familiar with the handling and tactics of weapons, regardless of gender.

Reese had also been trained in combat and tactical training by Narson and nearby escorts from an early age, and those training had become close to everyday life.

Since the war against Barbell, which had been going on until four years ago, was in a state of truce, Reese had been guided primarily by Zirconia in combat training.

However, Zirconia has been too busy with her duties lately to receive much guidance.

Since I was no longer able to receive Zirconia's guidance, I also asked others in the military for guidance, but I felt something was missing after Zirconia's intense guidance.

Because of this, Reese voluntarily creates more training time for herself than she has ever done before, and thus gives herself more training every morning.

"Is it time to fight on an equal footing with Master Zirconia and Master Isaac?

"Don't be impotent. Isaac doesn't have a hand or a leg in his mother."

To the best of Reese's knowledge, Zirconia's strength in one-on-one combat is one of the top in the military.

It's not as strong as your arm, but it flushes with your foot, and it's not normal for you to preface the movement of your opponent.

In particular, Zirconia's combat power with a small circular shield and one-handed sword would be impressive and comparable or greater in strength compared to the skilled soldiers of the Kingsguard.

Isaac has also been mentored by Zirconia from time to time since the same period as Reese, and the two are, so to speak, brotherly and sisterly disciples.

Reese has worked with Isaac many times in the past, but has never won before.

Isaac would never imitate the six-year-old girl as alarming, even if Reese was the opponent, without doing anything about the fight.

Most importantly, if you imitate that you're clueless in front of a zirconia, it's Isaac who sees hell afterwards, so when it comes to having no choice, there's no choice.

Isaac cares too, and after training he comes to Leese with some care, but the impression at that time was too strong, and Leese somehow had feelings for Isaac.

Of course, I've never done anything to imitate that on my face or attitude.

The Slan family, Isaac's lineage, has produced a large number of outstanding martial arts officers for generations, most of whom hold positions as military personnel, from Isaac's father, siblings and cousins.

Isaac, the eldest son of the Slan family, felt the blame or was devoting his heart to self-polishing twice as many people from day to day.

It had grown to such an extent that it was now quite capable of fighting Zirconia even against it, as it did not involve physical training or combat training.

That said, it's only "quite enough to fight".

"Something tells me your mother has a different dimension... I guess we have to go through a real fight"

"There may be that... Speaking of which, I hear Master Zirconia and Master Kazra returned last night. Anything from anywhere. I brought a big load."

You remembered on the subject of Zirconia, Eira told Liese about the contact information that she had just been offered at the morning ceremony.

The samurai who work at the Narson Mansion always perform morning and evening ceremonies with day and night shifts and share information.

Incidentally, since Eira's working form is full-time, she does not perform night shifts.

Eira is an exclusive Leese squire, so her lifestyle is tailored to Leese as well.

"Big baggage?... the one Master Kazura said before."

"Does Master Reese know what the luggage is?

Previously, Reese had heard of leaving Isteria for a few days from Ichigo at her dinner table.

In the meantime, there were a few stories about bringing large quantities of supplies into Isteria.

There was also talk of using the supplies to revive the barn zone, but they hadn't even heard the details of what kind of supplies to bring in.

"Hey, Master Kazura said before that he's going to do something Kazura led to revive the northern and western barn zones. Maybe I'll use that package for that."

When Reese said so, she opened her eyes as Eira was surprised.

"What, we talked about the northern and western barn zones being wiped out in the sun, right? Will you bring it back to life?

"It's a little incredible, but that's what he did say. Also, he said he was going to draw water from the river into the barn zone... he did say he was going to use a tool called a water wheel..."

"Waterwheel...... that's a tool you've never heard of. What kind of tool is it?

"What I've heard is that it's a tool that attaches a bunch of plates to a round wooden wheel and installs them in the river and spins them around. And they stick crates to it, and they pump up water."

"... you're a little unsure"

Eira tries to imagine the shape of the water wheel from Reese's story, but she has no idea what form it's in.

Because Reese herself doesn't know the shape of the water wheel in detail, she has no choice but to do so.

"I'm not sure because I just asked, too, that if I could make a lot of that, I'd be able to pump up a ton of water without using people's hands. If it's true, it's an amazing story."

"Right. Does that mean that the luggage you brought is a tool called that water wheel...... oh yeah. I remember talking about Kazura, and she's been making strange noises in front of Kazura's room since last night."

"Weird sound?

"Yes, it seems that some people were concerned and went to check it out, but Isaac was watching where it sounded so that no one could come near him... and then a little after the sound started coming out, he heard a terrible scream from Kazura's room."

"Oh, is that okay!? Even the thief broke in!?

What a tranquil story, Reese inquired with surprise to Eira.

"That's what the guards and Master Isaac jumped right into the room after the scream, but nothing in particular happened. However, at that time, Master Kazura was whining with a vain look that something had all melted... I'm not sure about the details."

"Oh, yeah. But I'm just curious... it's breakfast time and I think I'll ask Master Kazura"

"Ah, Master Kazura says he won't have breakfast this morning. He says he's pretty tired and he'll be sleeping till noon."

"Oh well. Then even at dinner... I wonder if it would be a good idea to hear a lot from this side."

I'm very curious about what happened, but it's not a good idea to ask too many bad questions.

I would also like to go and see the source of the mysterious noise, but if Isaac is letting me keep an eye on him, I guess it's not a good idea for the rest of us to see him.

Seems like we'd better talk about it later and see how well we react to it before we make a decision.

"Since this afternoon, did I have any plans?

"Lady Vilver-Maybach, a luxury merchant in the territory, will come to see you after noon. Since then, we have met in the order of Aldert-Trager of the nobility of the French territory, Gunter-Branden of the nobility of Gregorn territory, and also Nibel-Ferdinant of the luxury of Gregorn territory".

When Eira listed the names of today's visitors, Reese clearly looked disgusted.

"... you're a little too stuffed with that. Give me a break."

"That being said... and you have a tactical lecture scheduled from Master McGregor after breakfast today"

"Uh... what's your free time?

"... I thought it would be after dinner"

……

That afternoon.

As the sun illuminated the earth mightily, Ichirya was with the Zirconians in the barn zone of northern Isteria.

In front of the good guys are several carriages and tons of luggage loaded with compost bags and water wheel parts, plus nearly 300 personnel.

Currently, the gathered people are in the process of being grouped into every five, and it is Isaac and Habel who are giving those instructions.

Those gathered will be well grouped according to the instructions, whilst purposefully trying to figure out what will begin.

The generator watch, which is left in the courtyard while Yiliang and his men are away from the Narson mansion, is accompanied by a soldier named Route, one of Isaac's men.

When Yiliang was previously captured by Isaac in the village of Grisea, one of the soldiers following Isaac is Route.

Isaac says Root seems to be Isaac's cousin, with a very serious and trustworthy figure.

He and the other soldier have heard in the village of Grisea that Ichigo is Gracior, but then Isaac seems to have kept his mouth shut.

I guess the two of them are keeping secrets as Isaac instructed, since so far they can't see the rumors spreading.

"Well, shall we begin? Mr. Zirconia, please divide the cars into groups you've just divided."

"Yes."

In anticipation of the completion of the grouping, Ichiyana gave instructions to Zirconia.

Zirconia follows a good instruction and uses his squire, who had made him refrain beside him, to carry his luggage in front of each group.

In no time, sixty luggage vehicles were assigned to each group.

Five cloth bags filled with compost are stacked on top of the luggage.

"Next, dig shallow up the ground around it. When you're done digging it up, add some dirt in the cloth bag and mix it well."

In response to the instructions given, each group began to dig the ground simultaneously using Xu.

The dry ground is a little tricky to dig up, but we all do something to dig up the ground.

Isaac and Havel walked over to the group, which finished digging up some range, and took a small amount of compost out of the cloth bag and scattered it over the excavated soil.

Isaac and Habel receive the bamboo from those nearby, and mix the soil well as a sample to show.

"In that condition, mix it thoroughly. The spraying range is per cloth bag…"

Ichigo walked out counting his steps as he glanced at his stride.

I stopped once I walked about 35 meters, and now walked about 35 meters directly beside me to stop my leg.

"To this extent, sprinkle it the way you just did so that it would be as even as possible. Once you have finished sprinkling one cloth bag, move to a field that has not yet been sprinkled and even repeat the earlier work. We're going to do this to every field in the north."

When Ichigo explained so, a marvellous colour appeared on the faces of those who were gathered.

Even though the range is limited to the northern zone, the barn zone is not half the size.

When I think about how long the hell it takes, I'm unintentionally distracted.

But seeing the faces of those who show such a reaction, Ichigo did not move in particular.

Because Ichigo tapped the calculator within last night to calculate the extent to which it could be sprayed and the approximate amount of time it would take to work.

For a good calculation, if the 45 tonnes of compost you bring is used diluted to the normal fiftieth, the range that can be sprayed is 3712500 square meters.

It's hard to tell by the numbers, but this means you can cover about 79 Tokyo domes.

Converted to Japanese tatami, it is about 2.25 million sheets wide.

If 300 personnel were to be divided into 60 groups to carry out the work, a fertilizer spraying of 35 metres square would be carried out 60 times at the same time.

Since all the compost bags available are 3000 bags, when calculated as a group takes two hours to spray per bag, it will consume four bags even after eight hours of work a day.

There are 60 groups in total, so even simple calculations will consume 240 bags per day.

As long as there were no natural disasters or other problems along the way, I had a good idea that in two weeks I would be able to use up all the compost I had prepared.

"Also, make sure that each group is in a side-by-side row and doing the spraying at the same time. Just because you finished earlier, you can't keep working ahead. It can cause overlapping spraying areas."

When Ichigo cautioned so, he looked over at those who sent his gaze to him in a dazed manner.

"I forgot to tell you, at dawn when this work is done, you will be paid more by the Istell family. We also think about coloring depending on the accuracy and progress of the work, so please stick around and hope for the work."

When I heard the word pay, my anger returned to the faces of those who had until then had a dead man's expression.

Your reward is waiting for you and not for you, and your intention to work on it is very different.

"Okay, let's get started. Best regards,"

On a good signal, each group began work simultaneously.
