"Yoshi… it's done."
I entrusted the production of the live Otems to Giselle and Siby and I carved a large Otem.
It's over 2 meters. The upper part was carved with a tree stump.
It's a huge tree cut into a thin shape. I worked hard.
Let's call it Yama-san the second.
Yama-san the 2nd is not a living Otem.
It is not a futel tree, but another kind of tree used.
Shibi helped me to cut the tree.
Yama-san the 2nd is something like a scarecrow for protecting this smoky leaves field.
I can see that Noswell will come to harassment.
After building a no-entry signboard, I planned to let this Yama-san the 2nd to guard this area.
As it is dangerous, so I did not attach any attack function, but anyone being chased by this big size of Otem they would normally run away.
There is no problem with cultivating smoky leaves in the forest.
Originally, opening is encouraged.
It seems that there are few lands suitable for agriculture in this Maren settlement.
In the land where magic trees have grown for a long time, the components in the ground are biased.
Therefore, even if you just cut the forest, you cannot grow crops as you think.
Alchemy has been expanding land for a small number of farms by generations, but that is also a resurgence.
It grows wildly, there are quick-breeding magical herbs and if anyone don't care for a while, it will soon be lost to geology.
As long as you are free clearing, there is nothing to be said about smoky leaves cultivation.
Most of all, they only care about the woods of the forest, so there is no need to do anything to fertilize the land compared to crops.
I give magic power on a special soil, but that's it.
I don't have to burn it or burn it all up.
After the adult ceremony and the war about smoky leaves settles down, I will try to combine Otems to make a tractor.
I am confident that I can expand Maren tribe's farmland more than ten times.
I do not need so much. It is likely that the chief will stop me.
I tried to stroke the head of Yama-san the 2nd. I stretched, but I couldn't reach it.
Yep, dependable.
If it chased without knowing anything, ordinary people will escape first.
Well then, let's go back to making the live Otem of smoky leaves.
Thinking so, when I tried to find an affordable futel tree, Shibi came to my view who fell asleep by holding Otem.
I put my hand on Shibi's shoulder and shake it.
"Shibi, get up! Here, quickly! It's a little late than planned! Please!"
Shibi wakes up with a pretty face.
Oh, did he slimmed a little?
"Abel-san… isn't it already enough? I've never seen so many Otems lined up outside of Abel-san's garden. I have heard that for making smoky leaves the most difficult part is to take care of Otems.
"Enough? It's not even close. We need to change the conditions little by little and need to keep track of which went well. These numbers are not enough at all."
"We are behind schedule, isn't it because of Abel-san put too much effort into making security Otem…"
"It can't be helped. Because I'm a perfectionist. Come on, carve it! Carve it! It's a lifetime request! I will do what I can do! So I'm carve it for now!"
"Eh… low or high waist… Well then… Giselle-san…" "It is impossible"
I said anything, but it is something I can do.
I cannot afford to involve my sister.
"I'm leaving now! I'm tired!"
As I lie down, I glanced at Giselle sculpting an Otem and then hid my voice.
"… Shibi, I did not explain to you, if this time smoky leaves did not go well Giselle will be married into the Calco family."
If the Calco family moves seriously, that is possible.
If I say strongly, it is possible that my family will be isolated in the village.
Of course, if they really set up such a thing, I will also go all out in a fierce and reckless moves without choosing any means.
At that time it will not end with just smoky leaves war.
Between me and Noswell, one of us will become laughing stock and cannot walk in this village.
"Eh!? is that true?"
"Yes, so please, Shibi…"
I tried to bow my head and stopped moving.
Even in this village there is a culture that bows the head. There is, but there is something heavier than that.
I closed my eyes and tried to cross the air with a hand with one hand, as I did Shibi doing it well.
I hope it cannot be seen as a joke.
"I, I understand! You don't have to do that!"
"What, what are you doing? Brother! Please drop your hand!"
Not only Shibi, Giselle who sculpted an Otem put down wood-cutting knife and came to stop me.
Still, I could not grasp what this means within the Maren tribe.
"I also think it's bad, Shibi. But I need that Yama-san the 2nd too."
"Yama-san the 2nd?"
"It's about that big and slender Otem that my brother made."
As expected of Giselle.
Even though I hadn't taught her it's name yet, she seemed to have guessed it somehow.
"That's right, Shibi, I have a special drink, want to drink? Sleepiness will fly away and you can keep working like a machine for 24 hours or seventy-two hours. When the effect is out, you will suffering a little."
Of course, I also brought Abel potion.
The performance has been rising steadily as the prototypes are piled up.
Although the side effects have also jumped up in proportion to it.
However, since the grass that can be harvested within the village is the main ingredient, it is hard to see the limit of performance improvement soon.
In the past year, development has progressed only to reduce side effects.
"That, that please spare me. It somehow feels like something that is going over the line that one should never cross as a person…"
Shibi shakes his head while making his face blue.
Well, I see?
It is only a temperament, Should I use the magic of fatigue recovery?
