After relaxing, Jin, accompanied by Elsa and Reiko, asked the old man to check the progress of the craft.
"Oh, that's great."
Yes, we have been building on the moon from the beginning.
The weight of the components is reduced, so the strength of the scaffolds can be reduced as well.
If the weight is reduced to zero, the members will not be stable, so the "Mere Old Man" said that the "moon" is just right.
The mass does not change, so the inertia remains the same, but the < weight improves the work efficiency.
Although the craftsman (Smith) originally had sufficient physical strength, the work efficiency was improved by 30% to 50% in the moon (Yunyi).
"Okay, thank you."
Jin was relieved to know that he could now take another step toward Hale.
"Brother Jin, what are you going to do when the craft is finished?"
Jin is back at once again, eating the lunch Erza made for him and talking.
Today's lunch is tempura soba. It is hot soba with tempura of prawns from Tatsumi Bay.
The dipping sauce is a little light in flavor.
Drinking the sauce, Jin answered.
"First, I will send out the craft. Then we will build a simple base between the orbit of Ars and Hale.
"What kind of simple base?"
"What kind of simple base?" "I haven't explained it yet. ......The basic structure will be a disc about one kilometer in diameter, with a force field generator for orbital correction, a large transfer gate (warp gate) for transporting supplies, and a small accommodation facility.... ... we think."
"...... supply base?"
"You could say that, and it's also a safety backup. It's got a little combat power and a barrier."
It is an unknown territory.
In the end, it would be Jin's doppelgänger that would actually go to Hale, but even so, he wanted to take all possible measures.
"You also said that they are building a spacecraft for exploration on the moon (UNY).
That's encouraging.
That's reassuring.
As Jin, I was a little curious to know what kind of spaceship <>, the brains behind the moon, was building.
He thought about taking a peek at it, but on second thought, he decided to wait until it is completed and unveiled to the public.
"Well, I've finished my lunch," he said.
"...... have you got any plans?"
"I'm going to the village of Kaina. Do you want to go too?
"Oh, Hannah said she's going to do some experiments.
Yes, that's right.
"Yes, I'll go."
So, Jin, Erza, and Reiko moved to the village of Kaina through the warp gate.
Incidentally, I use the one in Nido Castle for official visits as a lord, and the one in the basement of Jin's workshop for private visits.
Of course, this is not the case in case of emergency.

"Ah, Onii-chan, welcome!"
Due to the time difference, it is a little before 11:00 a.m. in the village of Kaina. Hannah had just started to prepare for lunch.
"Hannah, let me help you.
"Thank you, Erza!
"I'll help you, too."
"Yes, Reiko!"
With no way out, Jin decided to wait in the workshop.
