Why don't you build a village on top of the world tree

Arriving at the Devil Bug Hunter Guild, I head straight to the Guild Leader's room.

"What's the situation?

Ask the guild chief, the old demon bug hunter in the old Kidato village district, who was talking to the demon bug hunter who seemed to be the discoverer of the Cyrillic loose shell in the reception room.

The guild leader answered me in the face of tension.

"The shell is currently being transported to the city of Tacax."

"Really?"

Then we can do the sampling of the loose shell with tacks. Cyrillic body lengths will also be discernible.

I turn my gaze to the discoverer.

"Ask for a report on the presence or absence of arrow wounds, location of discovery, and any other demonic worm carcasses in the vicinity"

"There were arrow wounds. Probably an arrow wound attached in the village of Gilica, so we are in transit to ask for a test from the village of Gilica in the city of Tacax. The location of the discovery is the north side of the world tree, the cloudy noodle layer - west from the city of Takakus. There were carcasses of Rainbow Insect that were apparently eaten by Cyrillic."

While the Devil Bug Hunter is reporting, the former Guillica village chief, who is an assistant to the guild chief, gives out a map and points to the location of the discovery.

It's a slightly westerly stop from where the village of Girica was.

The Rainbow Insect, which was reported, is a demonic worm resembling a ballworm that lives only in the cloud-no-layer, and plants eggs in the fruits of the world tree. Its crust is the raw material for jade coins that circulate as currency in this world.

Naturally, the number is small, and the crust is not necessarily killed by other demonic worms because it boasts considerable strength.

"Let's contact the major municipalities about this."

If it's not signed by me, it won't reach the Founding Fathers directly, and you should write it while listening on this occasion.

I get a set of letters from the guild chief's office, and I write letters to the city of Katella, the town of Kateo, etc.

Running the pen, I gave instructions to the former Gilica village chief to gather the Demon Bug Hunter.

Speak to the Alliance Leader.

"Are you ready for countermeasure equipment, as the formation of countermeasure units will follow the arrangements?

"I can do it, but I don't know if it'll help. It can be used as a play tool for kids."

"It would be better than none. It's reckless to intercept by force."

"Well, it's a story I don't feel comfortable with"

It is a tool that, if successfully decided, could deprive us of mobility. There are conditions of use, and I'm not sure as to the effect, but it would be worth a try.

"I'll send out a letter. Ask the assembled Devil Bug Hunter to draw attention to Cyrillic. Then, as the defense of the city of Tacax is our top priority, we ask you to notify us during your expedition for some time to come."

"Oh, okay."

I left it up to the guild chief to go back to the office.

Five days after the report of the discovery of the loose shell, a case of Cyrillic loose shell arrived.

Several Devil Bug Hunters are visiting from afar to see the rumored Cyrillic. Some of them were trying to leave it in the picture.

I have also hired people to paint with the decision that I should tell each municipality what Cyrillic looks like.

"- So this is the souvenir of the disturbing Cyrillic Place? I don't know."

Billows scratches his head when he sees his shell fall out.

He's about six meters long. I guess the color was yellow-green, but it is translucent green because it is shelled out.

I thought it had been placed in the village of Girica on the torso and tail, and some arrow wounds were confirmed by the former Girica village chief, which turned out to be identical to the individual who raided the village of Girica.

As I was hearing, he looks close to Kyrgyzstan. The back legs are thick and tough developed and shaped to make an excellent jump to see.

There were countless thorns on the front and middle legs. Sharp enough to stab, its thorns are about twenty centimeters long and are not likely to break easily. The joint part is buried in thorns and I'm not sure, so it's going to be difficult to snipe it with an arrow and destroy my leg.

"How hard is the crust?

Ask the former Gilica village chief, who was measuring the hardness of the crust.

"An iron arrow is a must. Even in the battle in the village of Girica, the tree arrows didn't stand teeth, but this proved it."

Billows peeks into the paper with his measurements and puts his jaw in.

"It doesn't extend to blue beetles, but it's pretty hard. I guess I'll just have to aggressively aim at the joints. The tail tends to be a little brittle."

I'll take a peek into the record, too.

From the numbers, the tail seems slightly weak, as Bilose put it. To this extent, even if the contents are packed, I will be able to shoot through them.

The problem is the stiffness of the area other than the tail. It wouldn't pass unless it was a billow-like power boasting a strong bow.

"What about the back leg?

"I'm going to look into it."

A former Gilica village chief measures the hardness of his back leg.

Living individuals store tough muscles inside rather than just the exoskeleton that is shaping the shell, so it would be much harder, but it would be one reference value.

There are also constants for calculating at times like this, so I will try to calculate them after measuring the hardness.

"If you're after the joints, I can do it."

"No, you're about amane"

Billows shrugs his shoulders when he hears the guesses.

"Whoever shoots it will stab you if you use a penetrating arrow among the pointy arrows, but that's a story if you hit it. A few of us, including Amane, would be hit by a fast-moving demon bug that shoots through this hardness."

There are several types depending on the shape, even if you say arrow in a bite.

Especially in this world, the main soldier outfit is highly developed because it is a bow and arrow, which is greatly divided by applications such as shooting through, shooting out, and even within it there are arrows dedicated to certain anti-demonic worms, such as the arrows for beaants.

It's a cone-like arrow used against a highly hardened demon bug in that. It won't work unless you stick it vertically to the subject. It's not often used and the Devil Bug Hunters rarely take it with them during their expedition.

Probably use swords and arrows for shooting off. This one makes it difficult to bend the blade even if the angle of incidence on the prey shifts slightly, and if it is a strong bow, it can compensate for the lack of penetration with destructive force.

The conical arrows that deal with giant demon worms and cause damage have a blade area of more than ten centimeters, so if you don't hit them accurately, they will bend along the way and will not work. Instead, we can snipe a few gaps as long as we can shoot accurately.

I speak to the Demon Bug Hunter who was nearby and ask him to bring that arrow from the Guild's stockpile warehouse, which in this world is called the Cone Through. Then also swords and arrows commonly used.

"If it's the back leg, even the sword and arrow will pass, but the thorns in the front and middle legs will get in the way? If you cone it through, you can go through both."

I see the guild leader. The most experienced old Devil Bug hunter in Tacax City has an arm that shoots through highly maneuverable Devil Bugs through cones, just like me.

"I don't know if I can actually look at it, except for Noon and Amane, who should take the sword and arrow to slash the tentacles off."

"Billows, can you do it?

"The base will be tough, but I can drop it from the middle"

Nodding back at Billows spitting a reliable dialogue, I look at the neck part of the loose shell, which is the last material of concern.

Shortcuts are shooting through the head or slashing it off if you're going to kill a demon worm.

But Cyrillic's head is pretty sturdy and a little hard to shoot through.

The joints that connect the head to the torso are actively targeted by a warthog hunter who specializes in rapid fire like me, but instead of having a narrow operating area, the exposure area is also small.

It is a sturdiness worthy of the two names of the Winter King. It would be pretty hard to get this guy to die instantly.

Oh, thank you.

"Finally, it's time for that toy."

With a bitter smile, Billows points to the Alliance's arsenal.

This is where the secret weapon I suggested is kept.

"I've never crossed without a show."

I sigh and look around at the Devil's Bug Hunters.

"If there is a battle with Cyrillic, shoot off the tentacles first. Next, in parallel with me shooting through the rear leg joint and taking the jump force, I want everyone to execute the operation. If we succeed in sealing the motion, close and concentrate on the head. If you know what I mean, I need you to go back to your quarters and stay alert."

"Copy that!"

The Devil Bug Hunters reply out loud and go back to their places of business.

"- That?"

Contrary to the Devil Bug Hunters, I waved when I found a shadow coming to me.

"Mr. Store Manager, this way."

"Whoa, Amane, I just arrived, what's all this fuss?

He dropped off the Devil Bug Hunters and sensed signs of crap, and the shop manager at the wooden cage frowned.

But I immediately noticed the Cyrillic loose shell sitting behind me and opened my eyes.

"I don't think so, but what's behind it..."

"As you can guess, it's a chilli 'loose shell"

"It's a bad time."

The manager sighs.

I feel the same way.

"Neither did I expect to discover it at this time of year, when the bridge work to the cloud noodle layer will begin. Well, let's get belly-up thinking it's better than being attacked without warning."

"Is the liver sitting or is it a throw? But I agree. Either way, we're gonna start construction, right?

"I'm going to. I'd like to move on to some extent by winter."

In exchange of words, I walk alongside the manager to get down to the lower cloud level.

"With the Mermies, we have installed a wooden cage at the scene and deployed an anti-fall net. Parent columns and columns have already been worked on and put in the warehouse."

"Are we going that far? Or did you step on it that it would take too long if you didn't keep going that far?

"The latter is correct."

"It's a bridge for Amane to turn Takakus into a memorial skyscraper. I thought it was pretty elaborate."

"I'm sure it's elaborate."

By classification, it's so elaborate that I'm not even sure if it's a bridge.

Rather, he sells fights.

Oh, it's the Japanese sex that floats first when I try to build a bridge that climbs to heaven.

Arriving at the office, I take the blueprints out of the work room and show them to the manager who is having tea with Melmie in the reception room.

The manager frowned and looked at the blueprint, then laughed with his nose all the way.

"You know the minimum conditions necessary for a bridge across the cloud?

"It's sunlight protection, right? Of course, the bridge itself, which is constantly exposed to direct sunlight, which is not blocked by clouds, must be protected from solar radiation."

To meet this minimum condition, bridges crossing the cloud-no-layer are adopted with roofing bridges. Make it Yoinsley, make it Beautellarm, the bridge on the no layer of clouds is a roofed bridge.

The manager smiles. It's challenging and it's a fun laugh like some prank kid.

"Isn't that nice? It's also interesting to sell a fight to common sense in this way. I'm on it."

"Shall we then begin to explain the specific construction procedures"

I returned the same kind of grin that the manager was floating around and moved on to explaining.
