The next morning.

After breakfast, we were out of the mansion.

Ichirano is dressed in Japanese clothes to return to Japan.

"Then please do the later. You'll be back at night."

"Yes. You'll be waiting for dinner."

As usual, Ichiyoshi said goodbye to everyone and boarded an agricultural haulage that was parked in the corner of the site.

Insert the key and start the engine.

Sounded a characteristic explosion, Ichiyoshi left for the grove.

"Well, let's pick up the craftsmen.... Dear Leese?

Barletta tilts her neck at Reese as she stares at her good back as she leaves in the carriage.

"Hey, what the... I've never seen a ride like that before"

"They call it an agricultural hauling car. I was surprised when I first saw it, too."

"Oh, yes..."

Dropping off the good that kept them away for a while, Barletta and the others headed to the camp to pick up the bricklayers.

Ten minutes later, the three were with the craftsmen in front of a brick kiln that was being built in the corner of the village.

The kiln is not working at the moment and the contents are tearful.

In the immediate vicinity, a brick tower is built a little over three metres high.

It is a small charcoal blast furnace made of fire-resistant bricks, built by Barletta.

A water wheel was installed right next door, and each skinned sieve was coupled.

"This is huge. Is that a new furnace?

The parent of the bricklayer asks Barletta as he looks up at the tower.

As he lined up beside it, the disciple's craftsmen stared down at the tower.

Until earlier, I looked at the giant vegetables growing in the village fields and circled my eyes, but my interest already seems to be shifting here.

Incidentally, with regard to the immensity of the vegetables, he explains that he used the soil of the woods in the matter of (kung fu), which is strongly obtaining the protection of graciol.

Everyone was equally convinced that there was no particular suspicion, "I see".

"Eh, this is called a charcoal blast furnace..."

With that said, Barletta turned her attention to Zirconia.

Zirconia, who, like everyone else, was looking up at the blast furnace, made her snort when she noticed its gaze.

"This furnace is capable of dissolving metal at higher temperatures than normal furnaces. As soon as the fire-resistant bricks are ready, they will also be made in Isteria."

"Hmm... Is the water wheel next to this for moving the calf?

"Yes, it automatically works as the water wheel rotates"

"Well, automatically? You've often thought of something so convenient."

Parents nodded and began to look at her as she narrowed her eyes and licked the blast furnace wall.

The disciples likewise seemed to ascertain their shape by wandering around the blast furnace.

"So this is a brick kiln for baking fire-resistant bricks used to build blast furnaces. The usage is the same as a regular brick kiln, but I use high quality fire-resistant bricks so it's also for quite a bit of firepower...... Um, what's wrong?

Noticing the craftsmen looking at the blast furnace with a somewhat obscure look, Barletta tilted her neck.

"Are these furnaces built by skilled craftsmen?

Parents say so, alternating between brick kilns and blast furnaces.

"No, this was made by me and the whole village."

When Barletta answered, voices like "I guess so" and "I knew it" leaked from the other craftsmen.

Parents, too, make them snort in tune.

"Hmmm...... this is not very good. The way the bricks are loaded is too cluttered. Wouldn't a brick kiln like this do a lot of work around the fire?

"Ugh... su, sorry"

"What's going on with the bottom of the kiln? Did you lay down the whole thing properly and stiffen it with clay?

"No, I didn't. I just neatly ground it and cemented it with clay."

"Did you tilt towards the chimney?

"I didn't do that either..."

Leese and Zirconia looked at each other, to Barletta, who was being damned by great momentum.

Because I somehow thought it would all be perfect if she did it, which is well placed to have tremendous trust.

"Parents, you say too much..."

"Hmm?"

One of the disciples pinches his mouth when he sees a no go on even.

My parents noticed Barletta, who was soggy, and Liese and Zirconia staring at how it was, and a hurried look.

"Oh, no! If you made it with an amateur, you can call it good! You're acting like this!

……

"Even the ladies worked so hard! And if you look closely, it's not even that bad, yeah!

Parents desperately get in the mood to include a follow up that has not even been followed up on Barletta, who is obviously snagging.

Zirconia, you've made a derogatory statement about Barletta, an inky artisan, and he seems pretty anxious inside.

"So can you just tell me how to bake this brick? I've made a lot of them, so this is gonna be a big job. Ah! Waha!

"Ok......"

In all the subtle air, instruction in brick making began.

Meanwhile, around that time.

Ichirana, who returned to Japan, was sitting on the edge of the mansion making phone calls everywhere.

Arrange for additional fertilizers, check the progress of the construction plan, and check whether the products are handled by the main store clerk at the home center.

I tried to get everything done and put my phone in my pocket, and I stopped the move.

"... it's time to hear it right"

I said that and looked at my phone screen again, and I made a call.

I made a few calls and the phone connected.

"Oh, Dad? Long time no see."

"Look, it's been a while, it's not."

A voice with a mixed grump in relief sounds from the telephone mouth.

'It's been over three months since I last called. I told you to call me on the first of the month. "

"I'm sorry. I was just a little out of touch. So, there's something I need to ask my dad about it."

Ichigo put his breath down when he prefaced it.

"I'm talking about the room where the mansion was padlocked, and I walked into that room about six months ago."

……

"Then, in an instant, the view in front of me switched and a stone aisle appeared.... Dad, are you listening?

'... oh'

"So I went to the end of the aisle, and there was a jungle that I'd never seen before. So, there was a village right through the woods."

Maki is listening in silence to a good story without saying anything.

The fact that he knows about the door to the other world is definitive given the conversations he's had so far.

The question is, how far does he know and how did he not tell us anything about the door?

"The village is called the village of Grisea, but that's where the famine is causing the problem. I took all kinds of food and tools from here to help. And then for a while, I was allowed to live in that village. Since then, I've been helping with internal affairs at the residence of a big city lord named Isteria."

"... right"

"I ask you straight in, but Dad knows about the door that leads to the world over there, right?

Maki sighed deeply when Ichirano asked.

"Oh, I know."

"... Then why didn't you tell me anything? You mean you led me to come to this mansion, and you wanted me to do something in that world, didn't you?

'You'll want to hear a lot about it, but there's nothing I can teach you from me. I mean, you can't teach me.'

"... I don't see the story at all. What do you mean, you can't teach?"

I can't read the intent of the words, and Ichigo inquires.

It can't be convincing to be told that you know but you can't tell me anything, etc.

'It will never be for you for me to explain everything. Well, I can give you some advice. "

"No, it makes perfect sense to say... I mean, you could have told me about the food. I almost starved to death if I was bad."

"... starving to death? You can always come back, so you can do as much as food. If it wasn't convenient over there, I would have prepared plenty over here. And you said you took the food and the tools."

"No, no, that's not what I meant. What I'm trying to say..."

"Uh, that's fine for now, just listen to me."

Said in a slightly stronger tone, Ichigo shuts his mouth.

'I didn't tell you about the mansion room because I thought I should. I apologize for pretending I didn't know anything. But I thought that was the best way. I wanted you to act on your own ideas whenever you could. At least we're not talking about parents getting their hands on it. "

"... I have no idea. Would you say it more plainly?"

I'll give you one piece of advice.

When Maki said that, he put his breath down.

'I don't know what you're trying to do with any of these people, but act like you'll never have any remorse. Think for yourself and choose the path you think is best. Whatever the consequences, choose a path you're convinced of.'

……

'You're not coming back with what you lost. Always keep in mind what's most important to you'

"You know, be a little more specific..."

'That's all you can say from me. Call me whenever you have any problems arranging things or anything. Bye.'

"Eh. Hey, hold on..."

Ichirano tried to say that and put his phone out of his ear.

The letter 'End of Call' is floating empty on the LCD screen.

"What does it mean in the end..."

Ichigo stared at his phone on the edge for a while.
