Survival in Another World With My Master

"Thank you for your time. Who's hurt?

"All twelve Fifth Unit members are safe. There are no scratches."

Well, then, I'd like a report.

Ha.

The first group, which returned to the fort on the front line, consisted of twelve Liberation Troops and thirty-seven Liberation Nationals. Now reporting in the Operations Room are Jagila, a Cat Beast who was captain of Unit 5, and Zarda, a Lizard Woman who was deputy captain - one of three men who helped her defeat after being attacked by a gizma.

"Well, first of all, we had a lot of trouble breaking into the Kingdom of Merinard itself."

Ah, I see. Oh, don't worry about the way you talk. In the meantime, it's fine as usual. "

"Ah, no, that's not how it works. Well, as originally anticipated, the Gizma attack was also on the side of the Kingdom of Merinard, and all the fortifications between the realm of the Kingdom of Merinard and the Great Wilderness of Omit reinforced their vigilance."

Jagila, who was told by Sylphie not to impose on her tone, persisted in it and proceeded with her explanation in a polite tone. Sylvie is the highest ranking member of this community, and as an army member, I don't think he can disturb discipline. It's quite suspicious to say respectful words.

"Nevertheless, the area where the Kingdom of Merinard meets the Great Wilderness of Omit is vast, so I managed to get into it by riding in the shade."

From there, the six liberation units were divided into three groups of 24 personnel, each with two units, and began their activities in earnest. The roads were not used, but roadless roads such as the woods and wilderness were taken, and the troops led by Jagila and Sir Leonard were aiming for villages close to the border. The other two were headed for a village at a point where they had slightly entered the Kingdom of Merinard.

"It was three years ago, but there was a map. I decided on a route ahead of time, and if something unexpected happens, I was supposed to retreat immediately or join them."

"I see. So how was the village?

Yes, that's it.

The goal of the Holy King's kingdom, to which the Kingdom of Merinard belongs, was to seize mines that would calculate quality rock salt and iron. We cannot starve King Merinard's people to be used as soldiers and labor in the Holy King's kingdom, and if we rule too outrageously, our international position is in jeopardy.

It seems from these thoughts that the surrounding countryside was given some consideration so that it could live a life that was not so different from before the kingdom of Merinard was nationalized.

"That said, taxes have become heavier and freedom of movement has been restricted."

Lizard Woman's Zada supplements Jagila's report.

Although some consideration was given to life, it seems that village festivals and other festivals from ancient times were forbidden, forced to convert to Adele, the only religion of the holy kingdom that worships God Adele, and forced to take a lower position as a servant to human beings according to the Adele doctrine of human supremacy.... The actual treatment was never good.

In addition, women and children with weak power were placed under the control of armed soldiers to prevent villagers from rebelling, and their families and friends were severely punished if anyone showed rebellious attitudes. You think that was the cause of the death of a small child?

"I don't know... how did you proceed with the actual liberation operation?

"We raided in the shade. We had good eyes at night, and the soldiers of the Holy King had the lights when they warned at night. It was good."

"You didn't have to pull out your sword."

There are many subordinates who have good eyes at night. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been a difficult job to shoot with a crossbow if the target was illuminated with light. It has also been proven that the improved crossbow arrow pierces the armor of the Holy King's Army without worrying about it.

"When I got rid of all the soldiers in the evening, I came back with everything I could, disguised as a bandit raid."

"Sir Leonard's troops followed the other two groups further into the realm of Merinard. We need to meet up and help them with their operation."

"I see, I see. If you notice anything else that feels like equipment, report it to Merti, Isla, or Koske."

In response to Silfi's words, Jagila and Zada opened their mouths with a little thought.

"I see... it must have been hard not to light a fire after all. I couldn't get something warm in my stomach."

Mesh. The mesh is important. "

The quality of mesh greatly influences morale. Block cookies are delicious, but you'll naturally get tired of them all. I also prepared dried meat made with rough moves to further process steaks made with my craftsmanship, but I'd still like to have something warm in my stomach during dinner.

"The rest is a means of communication. I think it would be useful to have a tool to connect with people far away."

"Ah, the comms. It's not that hard."

How many people in modern society fully understand how radios and cell phones work? At least I don't know. Morse signals are just a fluffy concept, and in the first place, we have no idea how radio transmitting and receiving devices work. Should I have made a transistor radio? I've barely touched a transceiver.

"I only know the fluffy concept of communication, but I'll talk to Isla and the others as soon as possible."

I'm hoping for a magical approach because my fluffy knowledge won't allow me to build a communications machine from Earth. In the first place, there's still no sign that electric products can be made to make something with Earth's technology.

In that regard, with a magical approach, you can use an electronically controlled item called the Golem core, and you can use a resource called magic in terms of power. I'm sure the direction I should go is this way.

"Do you have anything else to report?

"Unfortunately, not much more. We shot and killed all the hostiles without taking the prisoners with certainty, and the liberated villagers were restricted in their movements and barely able to go to other villages, so we had little idea of the situation in the Kingdom of Merinard. However, according to people who have been tasked with transporting harvested crops to the city, towns and cities larger than the village seem to be inhabited mostly by humans. They hardly ever see the original king, the people."

"Is the twentieth year long? What happened to the people who used to live in the city....."

"According to the villagers, it was driven out as a labor force for the development of the border and the mine. I heard soldiers of the Holy King talking about it."

"I see... depending on the way of thinking, it might be convenient."

"What do you mean?

"Villages and mines are less secure than cities surrounded by walls."

"... is that so?"

While agreeing with Danang's words, Sylvie's expression was painful. Exploitation of borders and mining labor would be very dangerous jobs. Not to mention the holy kingdom of humanism. Perhaps the working environment is by no means good.

"How are the liberators?

"There are a few people who are feeling sick and uncomfortable, but it's generally OK. At first I was frightened to hear the story of escaping into the great wilderness of Omit, but after we managed to get rid of the gizma and arrived at the underground shelter set up by Koske before dark, my energy was much better. Block cookies were also popular. Children and young people who had barely eaten sweets were touched."

"We now allocate dormitories for each family and feed them."

I see. Today and tomorrow, if you let the Liberators and their troops rest slowly, you will evacuate them to our base. "

Roger that.

Jagila and Zada leave. After I saw him off, I exhaled.

In the meantime, there's only one success.

"It's still a small step. But it's a big step."

The future was difficult, but we could move one step forward for now. That's certainly a big step.

"So there are two demands from the front line. One is a warm meal that you can eat without causing a fire. The other is a means of communicating with friends far away without the enemy noticing."

"Hmm... difficult"

"Warm meals are still a challenge for my servants, so communication is a challenge....."

Ira and Sykes roared with their arms together to hear what I had brought. That's right, I don't have a good idea either.

"One at a time. How about a warm mess?

"Build a portable miniature heater?

"I can't help it, but there are definitely twelve men in one unit, right? If you were to cook a meal for that number of people, what would you need to become a fairly large pot?

"Indeed. Can you even hold a pot that can be used as a shield?

"I don't think it will tighten a bit... well, would you like to develop it in that direction? What about the power of the heater?

"You can supply both the magic and magic stones of the user."

"And you should make it sturdy anyway. Ruggedness is our priority, and we care about weight as much as we can."

In the meantime, the first proposal for a warm mesh was to develop a portable heat exchanger and a shield that could be used as a pan.

"Is there no solution to this problem with Koske's knowledge?

"Hmm... there was a way to warm up the food by reacting raw lime with water. I don't think I can solve the container problem after all."

"Oh, is it raw lime? Certainly, it also generates a rapid fever."

"Funny, did you cook food with raw lime in Koske?

"It's not a very popular method. An environment where you can't use the fire in your travel destination... for example, in a vehicle, or in a situation where it is difficult to cook due to a disaster, or when eating warm food under such special circumstances. Of course, I think it was used by the military to eat warm meals during the operation."

I don't know if he's using raw lime.

"In the end, it's going to be disposable for once. When you have numbers, it's bulky."

"I don't think it's a bad idea to move forward with multiple developments, regardless of whether they are adopted or not."

"Well, while we're making it, we might be able to develop other technologies that we can apply."

"Really? That's right."

Surely, it won't be a waste. As it stands, we'd better do whatever we can back there.

"Next, communication."

"That's a tough one. Does Mr. Koske have any useful knowledge?

"I used to enjoy the benefits on Earth, but I really only know the principles. If you don't mind."

And in advance, I decided to teach the communication mechanism and history to the best of my knowledge.

"Maybe it's the Morse signal that's easy."

"What do you say?

"Tong, tong, tong, tong, tong, tong, tong, tong, tong, tong, tong, tong."

Explain the concept of Morse signal lightly while tapping the desk with your fingertips. That said, I am not familiar with it, so I can only explain it this way.

"Tong, the magic flows for a moment, and the magic continues to flow in the two parts. I used electricity in my world, but magic is easier to understand in this world. Here, that's it. Boundary separation device of this base. You're also regularly releasing magic waves to chase away monsters, right? Fly magic waves as far away as you can and communicate at that wavelength. It would be easier if you could make a voice in the magic waves."

After hearing my words, Isla and Sykes, as well as other magicians and alchemists, started talking to Hisohiso.

"Adjust the wavelength if you just want to fly...."

"Receiving is the application of detection magic...."

"With the Golem Core...."

We are actively discussing something. I wonder why I get out of bed nets. Since the magician and the alchemist look like that, I'll go with the blacksmith, the woodsmith, and the sculptor to pack up the design of the shield pot. It's going to get heavy, but basically it should feel like a Chinese pan. Put a removable cover and handle on the inside of the pan to keep it hygienic. Attach the locking mechanism so that you can secure the cover and handle using the handle of the pan.

And while I was recommending the story, it seemed that the story of the Wizard and Alchemist group was over.

"I feel like I can manage using Golem technology. Proceed with development, including encryption creation."

"Oh, yeah. Well, let's get started. The design of the pot has been decided. Let's start with a prototype."

This led to the development of pot shields and portable thermal heaters, raw lime heating bags, and a communications machine later named Golem Communication Machine.
