A few days later, a Knox youth came to me.
"Good luck with that."
"Ha-ha-ha"
You're still nervous.
I have heard that he showed his face everywhere in the castle for a life improvement project.
Seems like a lot of hard work, but how did it turn out?
Even when I was a company employee, when I left the job to my young men, I must have...
"Well, how was your response so far?
"Ha-ha. Oh, shit. First, it's about the rough hands of maids and servants."
"Hmm?"
"I talked to Anna and she said," Thank you. Rough hands make it extra bad when you use hot water. "
"... seriously?
"Hi, sorry."
Knox's report was a shock from scratch.
Whatever, when you use hot water, your hands get extra dry?
Anna is an ancient stock servant who has served Ill since before she came to the castle. I guess so if she says so.
"No, I'm sorry. It's not your fault.... but is it..."
"Yes, sir"
... I didn't know...
Ildo didn't say anything either... but no, he's a man too, as it turns out.
You mean it was the shallow wisdom of things that usually don't do water work? This is awkward.
"Well, so be it. I talked to the medical officer about the rough hands."
"!? Well, so?
I'm depressed, but I give a face to Knox's words.
According to Medical Officer Salia, hand roughness would improve considerably if an ointment passed on to the Schulz tribe was used.
However, the herbs that become materials are rare and cannot be produced in large quantities.
"Is the herb itself secure?
"Ha. Looks like we're growing a few strains in the herbal garden right now"
"Then it's no problem."
"Yeah?"
I'm here and there's a new way to use the spell.
[Plant domination (control plants)]. It's a spell that can manipulate plants within a certain range to attack enemies or make them huge.
Now if we make that herb huge, we can solve the number of problems.
Thinking about it, isn't it possible to increase the production of rare herbs not only for rough hands, but also for herbal gardens?
"Okay, good for you, Knox. It's handy."
"Oh really?!? It's an honor."
But you would have mentioned commercializing ointment immediately if there was an ILD on this occasion.
That's not too bad, but we need to make it a priority to protect your ladies' skin first.
"Then we'll go to Salia's later."
"Right. So, the next thing I know, it's the" flame that won't go away "thing..."
"Hmm?
Knox said he talked to Garedo.
Garedo is a Dwarf blacksmith being sent from Battle Axe Township. He specializes in martial arts, but he seemed right to rely on him for familiarity with the handling of iron and furnaces.
In Garedo's view, a boiler redesigned to match the firepower of 'Unquenchable Flames' would be able to withstand use.
However, if you don't keep boiling water through the water at all times, it will still fail with heat.
"They have a hand in going through the water supply, but they say the scale of the work needed is going to be amazing."
"Is that the problem..."
"Well, so be it. This is my idea...... what about letting the boiler golem refill the water? Golem can make you do other things."
"Hmmm......!
Sure enough, the Golem can keep doing the same thing for good once ordered.
I guess he was watching Robo-One test the other day, too.
Furthermore, Knox has come up with a proposal to include boiler status checks in the soldiers' night patrol operations.
I see, then I can ensure safety with little change in the amount of work I do.
I thought it was just serious, but I'm going to have an extra flexible idea.... I have to revise my assessment of him.
"Draw water from the well to refill the boiler or install a pump to let it operate...... you can think of several ways to do it"
"Right...... Around there, you should consult with the dwarf of the architectural house (Dauron). Later, I'll lend you my phantom horse, so you can come to Battle Axe."
"Ha, ha.... Um, actually, one more thing. Oh, I thought about the lights."
"Oh, you still have it"
Even then, Knox stretches his spine and makes an inverted voice.
His idea was whether to use lighting by [perpetual lights (permanent lights)] for lighting up not only indoors but the entire castle of Zytheas.
(No, I didn't use the term light-up)
"And I wonder if you can show the awesomeness of the castle even from afar..."
"Mmm..."
"Ah. Shh, sorry. That was a nasty story, wasn't it? Excuse me."
He starts to bow his head with great momentum because I roared.
"No, no, you don't. No. I'm impressed."
"Ho, is it true...? Oh, thank you very much."
Honestly, I don't really like illumination. I don't know if it would be effective if I did it when I had visitors or something.
"Talk to the Dwarves in the Architecture House (Dauron). There 'll be a lot of designs and stuff. If that's the case, you might want to ask around Crawler or Elizabeth."
"Oh, I see."
Increase your appreciation for Knox, who bows his head in the same momentum as when apologizing.
This guy, he can use it.
In fact, I guess I asked for more opinions and twisted my head to more than the number of people who came out on this occasion.
Running around the castle bluishing and reddening his face seems to come to my attention.
"This will not reduce the hardship of the ladies of the castle a bit. Thanks."
Slap Knox on the shoulder looking happy while I'm frightened.
I'm sure I was happy too, but I wanted to give Knox a taste of the success experience here.
I hope this builds some confidence.
But. Was this how my boss and seniors used to compliment me, too?
No, no.
If I became a 'king' or something, I guess I'd be done with 'feelings like this', huh?
