The Peerless Kobold (WN)

The journey to a series of ancient woods is also successfully completed, and the morning after joining the herd, I wake up in the nest hole where I am accustomed to living when I hear a shitty squeal.

He woke up with a light rub on his eyes as he fell asleep, turning his gaze to the corner of the nest hole and glancing at the rooster (dull), whose straw sounded vigorously in the laid enclosure.

"... viorgwalhan (... intimidating me in the morning)"

I thought morning ringing was chicken habit, but apparently Kobolt's instinct appeals to me that this is a demonstration (twitching) act.

Evidence of this is that the hens (Mendori) are quiet... When you were a mercenary, when you exterminated the vermin in a town where chickens and livestock farming flourish, the rancher told you that there was an order for the chickens to beep in the morning.

(Well, they have sequences, too)

You mean naturally attached to the creatures that live in the flock?

Yesterday, too, in the square of the settlement, the 3-year-old and 4-year-old males began a duel of sequence strife, with martial arts elves like Celica and Lenade looking interesting, but recalling Listy and Asta staring at each other.

Now that it's breeding season, the male cobolts of the herd are getting rough.

Though the 3-year-old male won because of it, he was frightened with a sharp glance of the guy who had been kicked away, hitting a buster eating venison while his opponent watched, removing the meat and turning his tail round. I can't tell you that that made the herd of females look just right.

"Waaahhhhh... (sorry to hear that...)"

Anyway, we need to prepare for the spring baby rush we visit after winterization after the love season and expand the settlement now. It cannot be said that there have been no sacrifices at all, but since we showed our heads, the mortality rate of our fellow herds has tended to decline and has already been narrow even in the present situation.

(There's no reason to expand to the outside of the woods, if you want to do it, it's on the southeast side...)

He scratches his head with one hand, then wears a magical silver mask and heads to the tents of the elves stretched out in Central Square to see how it goes.

"... Morning, Archer"

In a square where the herd Kobolts and others can see themselves awake in chills, Celica boils water over a large koffel burning fire, wraps the handheld dry herbs in a clean cloth and throws in a tied tea bag.

"Wauong, Gaal Kuwoah

"Good morning, awake herbal tea" "

"... are you there?

A bronze pharmacist and blacksmith crawled out of the tent, invited by the scent of herbs if it was a professional pattern, as the obsidian elf daughter nodded as she leaned her little neck with a slightly sleeping head and lowered her back to its face across the fire.

"Fumiyu, peppermint incense... because it helps to refresh your head"

"It smells a little different than the mint tea Mira always makes for you, though?

"Wait a minute, Asta."

With that said, she goes back to the tent again and brings a pharmacist's leather bag that can be kept in small portions so as not to wake the sleeping listies.

"I'm going to add this rosemary, so wow!

Place the dried herbs quickly in a cloth medicine sachet into the coffel and add only the increased amount of water from the leather water bottle.

"Kwofau ~, Garuwolu ♪

(Smells good - let's put this in too. ")

Axe, who, like Mira, had been attracted to the smell, also sat in front of the fire, opening the lid of the bottle in his hand and throwing in about four cups of honey with a large wooden spoon.

"Guruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... (I don't really like sweet...)"

"Wuuuuuuuuuu"

Celica grabs the hand of the sweetheart Kobolt, who tried to add more honey, and Axe softly lays down her chemo ears with her face.

(I don't know if it's too sweet for me...)

While sending praise to Celica in her heart, she receives a finished honeyed mint tea and enjoys a relaxing time in the morning surrounding the fire with two cobolts and three non-white magnetic elves.

"Waluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu on?

"By the way, Asta, how's that array you saw yesterday?

"Ahhh, I admit the hard work of Smiths and the others, but the wood processing is not accurate... it breaks right away if it's an alle. Not only do they need their own hand axes and spears, but they need at least saws."

An array is a waterwheel that had instructed Smith to make it before leaving the herd.

Since this is a high land in relation to the location of the water source Steele River and the settlement, the damage caused by flooding can be mitigated in the event of heavy rainfall, but it is difficult to create waterways and draw water to the fields.

Well, since there is little precipitation required for the Autumn Sowing (Akima) wheat bought from the cats, and the nearby villages of Viel and Lucua can be cultivated even if they are not equipped with waterways, it cannot be said that it is essential to draw water because natural farming methods are also possible in this area.

(But... I'm thinking about other crops, and efficiency issues)

As a native of a desert country (Athos, my hometown) with a lot of low rainfall, I understood the effectiveness of irrigation farming. If you supply them with moisture stably, you can expect a yield per unit area.

To do so, it is also necessary to install multiple water bottles on the sides.

Lifting the water drawn up in a cylinder using the river flow as the power is higher by the rotational motion of the wheel, and dropping it from near the apex of the water wheel to the water supply creates a high and low difference. This also makes it possible to relax the conditions of the land and draw water up to the settlement.

Basically, the water bottle is just on the water wheel, so I asked the dripping ear cobolts led by the clever Smith to emulate it with reference to the powder-ground (Konahi) water wheel in Viel Village...

At first glance, even if it seems like the only wooden formation, it doesn't seem to be a glimmer.
