Moritz had done everything he could to compensate the village for the fire.
"That's my brother."
"Yes, your brother-in-law is very meticulous in his work.
Seeing his work, Jin and Erza were able to return home with peace of mind.
On their way back,
"Hey, Erza, I can't let you be a deputy, but a secretary golem would be good, wouldn't it?"
"Oh, sure."
Jin and Erza agreed that Moritz was too serious and that they should make and give him a golem that would take care of his schedule and health.
* * * *
Back in Horai Island, Jin immediately starts to make a golem.
"Dad, it looks fun.
"Yes, it sounds fun.
"I want to try it too.
"Maybe when you're a little older."
With Chloe and Mio in tow, Erza is on a tour.
Jin is working on a more neutral body shape.
Even though it is a golem, she intends to dress it. No unnecessary protrusions. He will try to keep the same silhouette as a human.
Power is about three times that of a human, suitable for precision work.
The robot will be made of light silver, and will be lightweight. Estimated finished weight is about 70 kilograms.
And this time, it is Jin who is making it with the intention of it to Yu and Mio.
The golem was completed in about an hour at .......
"Oh!"
"Dad, that's great!"
Chloe and Mio are clapping their maple-like hands.
(I wonder if these kids will succeed me ......)
Jin starts to put the final touches on the project, thinking in the corner of his head, "What should I do with the colors?
"...... what color should I make it?"
Since it is light silver (titanium in the Ars world), the color can be changed by adjusting the oxide film.
"Why don't you make it a color close to your skin tone?"
Elsa offered her advice.
"Yes, that's right. That would be a good idea, considering the clothes we're going to put on them."
The idea of a golem with a blue or green face wearing clothes would be a little eerie to the uninitiated, so Jin decided to use a light, subdued brown color. In a light place, it looks almost skin-colored.
"I like it this way."
"Hmm."
"Wow."
Elsa named him .
All that remains is the timing of the gift.
I'm sure you can guess the timing of the gift.
By the way, Marcia's is almost finished too.
"Oh, I see."
Marcia is building a boat in the village of Kaina.
<
After having taken care of Yu and Mio's measles, the <> charter, Fritz and Gloria's wedding ......, and many other things, it would be awkward to say that we have left the ship thing unattended.
So Jin decided to go to the village of Kaina that night.
Jin said, "Oh, Jin!
"Ah Jin, a good place!"
Jin moved through the warp gate of Nido Castle and first looked into the workshop, where he was greeted by Marcia with a surprised look on her face.
"I've just finished adjusting it. If everything is OK, it will be finished!"
"Oh, that's good timing!"
Due to the time difference, it is already evening in the village of Kaina. The test will be tomorrow.
Jin listened to Marcia's story of hardship over dinner.
Tiberio, have you gotten used to it?
"Yes, every day is interesting now. I learn a lot from the way you work, Marcia.
"He is enthusiastic. He can also use a little engineering magic, which is very helpful."
"Heh. ......"
Jin thought that if he were to teach him in earnest, he might become a new asset to Marcia's workshop.
After dinner, Jin was shown the finished ship. Marcia and Tiberio go to the workshop together.
Rodrigo went back to his room, saying he was a little tired.
One was ordered by Barbara and the others, and one was ordered by Jin. One was ordered by Barbara and the others by Jin.
The other one is for experiments.
"Experimental?" "Yes. I built it purely out of curiosity. It's a standard model for future whitewater vessels. It's not for sale, so Tiberio helped me a lot."
"Oh."
Jin was most interested in this.
"This."
So, first of all, he asked to see the experimental model.
It was not a trimaran, but a monohull. The material was wood.
The shape of the boat was long and slender, with floats extending out on both sides.
It reminded Jin of an outrigger canoe.
This type of canoe has good stability, but it can't carry much luggage. It also doesn't turn very well.
Marcia explained to the representative.
"Hmmm..."
"But you can get a good speed with a rowing machine, and you can also steer it with a pole.
"I see."
In whitewater rafting, which is still practiced in modern Japan, boatmen often use a pole.
If the rower is a golem, he has more power and faster reaction speed. First of all, the golem does not get tired, so I think this is a good idea.
"I think it is suitable for wide rivers, though."
"Yes, I think so."
Jin agrees with Marcia's opinion. I thought that the Ermee River might be a little difficult to handle in the narrow section of the river.
"But I like this one.
Jin said that the Erme River would be easier to use downstream from Lake Cedrolia.
The area borders the Kingdom of Celuloa, so we will have to be careful in our operations there.
It could also be used in the upper to middle reaches of the Divide River in the Shoro Kingdom.
Marcia and Tiberio nodded happily when Jin said so.
"I see! I hope we can sell it there too."
Marcia was happy that her ship was being used, not for profit.
The next two projects were the ship commissioned by Barbara and her colleagues, and the ship commissioned by Jin.
The former is a trimaran, just like the prototype. It is one size larger and the overall balance looks good, and we are looking forward to the test run tomorrow.
The boat that Hitoshi requested, which the children in the village can enjoy, looks like a rubber boat with an outboard motor attached to it.
The material of the boat is not rubber but >, which absorbs the impact even if it hits a rock, and it does not tear.
The outboard motor of the < type is also made of 64 light silver, so it will not break down so easily, Jin thought.
"I see, so this is what you did.
"Now I want Jin to make a golem or automata that can control the outboard motor. You can operate the outboard motor yourself, but for your own safety, you must ride with the golem or automata.
I've been knocked off the boat many times," Marcia said, "but the Ermee River can be dangerous in some places.
