For the time being, the window flower's needs have been met.

　The capital city of Mid-Arres is expensive, uncomfortable in the town like a movie set than anything else, the necessary errands are over. That's why we decided to stay overnight at the inn just today used for shopping, and head to the next town from the next morning.

　Impressions of the capital city.
　I'm glad that Anya has joined us.
　If I hadn't been there, I think I would have died in the loading operation.

　Now, our next destination is Jiburu, a bay port city on the southern edge of the new Ares Empire. It's the gateway to the sea for the new Ares Empire. It's the perfect place to gather information about outside the continent and the surrounding island nations.


On the way to the Gulfport City of Jibul

This armored car is so cool. I'm starting to get interested in this thing.

　Don't ever disassemble it!
　I'm in real trouble!

'The chairs in this room are awesome too, you know?　It could be a desk or a bed!　It's small, but if you make it three bunkers, it can sleep six people on either side. The driver's seat will be a bed too, though.

　Oh, I don't like that story.
　It's so misleading.
　I can't stop sweating.

"Oh, so your husband is going to sleep in the same room as us?　Could it be...................that Midia has already slept with her husband?

　Window flowers!
　Help me!

　But the window flower was concentrating on making ammunition in the car factory...

''In Ryota's country, there's a rule that men and women should be seven years old and not bedding together, so I'm sleeping in the driver's seat?

　Safe!　To be exact, it's 【Men and women are seven years old, but they don't share a seat at the same time】, but a lie is also a convenience, and in this case, it's not selfishness, so I cheated.

Then, are they really living like parent and child? That's what's expected of you, you're a slacker.

　You're such an a**h*le!
　Isn't that a compliment?

But he has promised me that Ryota will take over for his father. Sometimes, when I'm feeling lonely, I'll sleep in the driver's seat. But that's my own personal prerogative!　Anya isn't allowed to sleep in the driver's seat, okay?

　It's subtle.
　How is Anya's decision?

'Sleeping... or maybe just sleeping in bed with you?　You know ... well ... does Midia know what they do at night?

Wow, I know!　Just what it means........but I don't know much about it because I haven't experienced it, and Ryota won't tell me what it means. My dad said no because he wouldn't teach me...

　No girl talk where you can hear!　It's too naked and embarrassing for an old man!

"Well your husband is a badass, but Midia's pretty cruel too, you know?
I should take a chance and make him feel better...

'Anya?　What did you say?

　All of a sudden, Midea is a killer!
　Did Anya make you angry?

No, no, nothing?　It's just that Midea loves her dad, and she knows it. But he's made a great, troublesome relationship with her again...

　For now, it seems the crisis is over. Anya's gaze hurts but let's change the flow of the conversation by talking about something else.

It's about to get dark. "It's getting close to nightfall and I'm not comfortable in the car, so I usually pitch my tent and sleep outside. When there's no good place to sleep, or when it's raining, I sleep in the car. There are two tents, one for each s*x, so don't worry. So, what do you want to do today?

"I agree with the tent. Cooking over a bonfire is both more plentiful and tastier.
You're in a tent. We have a big library of books, we don't want to study in the car.

'Then we'll take the tent. Two of you can assemble the women's one, I'm familiar with mine, so I'll assemble it by myself. Also, I want to sort through the information I've gleaned from the library and the capital to create a dossier. The goddess has instructed me to dedicate it to you, and I'm sorry, but you'll both be helping me after dinner.

　So we were encamped in a tent, but Manya is very strong and dexterous in everything she does. So she got ready before I did.

　While there's still some daylight, Midea went to set hunting traps in the nearby woods and bushes, and surprisingly enough, Anya seems to be good at cooking as well, so she willingly started to prepare a bonfire and food. I mowed the lawn around the tent, and window flowers run the washing machine on the armored car.

　By the way, Manya's food is high level but hard to notice the deliciousness of the food. If I were to compare it to a home-style taste?　Anyway, it was a gentle taste that I could eat every day.

　Afterwards, we relaxed and then started discussing the report around the fire.

''The new Ares Empire has nothing to do with the issue of God. The denomination is only non-denominational because of the mix of northern and Greek systems, and there is no religious conflict.

'Yes, I agree with Ryota-sama. I think that's what we should report too.


Findings of the new Emperor Ares

　It is simply a confederation of colonial cities around here, with a war of independence but no religious conflict.

Features.
　There are many ruins of the former Ares civilization and many relics and self-driving vehicles. It is well versed in history and ancient technology. The population is small, but it is capable of using relics. However, as an emerging nation, it lacks prestige and legitimacy, and claims to be the successor to the old civilization as the new Emperor of Ares.


Status in the Ares subcontinent.
　There was a war of independence but peace has prevailed since its end. Excavated self-propelled vehicles and artifacts have contributed to production activities as well as military use. Today, it is one of the three major powers of Ares.

　Sidenote: The cause of Ares' half-arsed antiquity, the exodus of technology from this country, is the original cause of Ares'

'Speaking of which, Halka's thought crystals were interesting ... are there any non-Neumann equations or quantum calculators?　It's a shame we couldn't find it in the relic market.

I was surprised to see that the shops in the capital city have automatic doors just like the ruins. But behind the scenes a servant operated the door with a cord and I was so disappointed that I don't want to go back there.

That's just being stingy. Those relics cost a fortune, right?　I can make it too, but it's cheaper to hire a servant.

　Even on Earth, the ancient Greeks had automatic doors in ancient Greece, apparently. But [Heron of Alexandria] and probably some geniuses made them.
