"That's right, old man. Now Vulcania is a new 8 km square city surrounded by a 50 meter high wall. And with the Atmosphere, we'll have an ironclad defense.

"Yes. I told you that the magic of the labyrinth core, the Atmosphere, has been acclimated to the land. That means that Vulcania's walls and things became part of the labyrinth. And maybe the Atmosphere works to automatically repair those things."

"Yes. Or rather, I have encouraged the Atmosphere to make it that way. When the walls and sewers collapse and break, I asked Atmosphere to fix them with its magical power.

"Well, they said that the atomosphere was a spirit stone. I've been trying to make a contract with a genie like Kyle. Every night I would touch the Atmosphere and try to communicate with it by sending magic power to it.

No, I couldn't. But I noticed it when I was sending magic power into the Atmosphere. I realized that I could manipulate the magic and tinker with the land of Vulcania like I did with the city expansion. And I asked him if he could automatically fix the walls I built this time if they were broken, and it seems that he did.

"Hmmm. It's a little hard to believe, but if the monk says so, it must be true. I guess there is no one but the monk who can use the core of the labyrinth that well.

 Just being there increased the amount of magic in the atmosphere.

 Therefore, at first it was thought that the mere presence of the Atmosphere in Vulcania would lead to more people in the future with a higher amount of magic in the area.

 This is my feeling as well, and I actually attacked the wall and collapsed a part of it on purpose to check it.

 As a result, the collapsed walls were repaired by themselves with the passage of time.

 Maybe the reason why the spirit stones are mined in the village of Atmos is because the warriors of Atmos were grateful to the spirit stones and worshipped them.

 I have no proof at all, but it may be that the spirit stones were mined in the village of Atmos because of its atomosphere, and that the hardened bricks replaced the spirit stones in Vulcania.

"Yeah. I don't really know how it works, but anyway, the monk asked the Atmosphere to keep repairing the wall, and it granted his wish, didn't it? Then I thought you might want to do something else."

How about, "If the wall can be fixed on its own, how about keeping the land as nutritious as it was when the soil was improved all the time? If we had a small area of land, even a small area within Vulcania, with the promise of a good harvest, wouldn't we be self-sufficient in food even if we had to be besieged at the drop of a hat?"

"...... I see. I wonder if the soil can be kept in the same condition as after [soil improvement] even without using magic. That could be interesting. Then, let's do that for a part of the Atmos area and the ranch area.

 If the wall can be repaired by itself, it should be possible to restore the soil to its original state by itself.

 The pasture area is currently used for grazing goats and Valkyries.

 The Valkyries are making their own [soil improvement] so that they can grow Hatskas for food, which the goats are also eating.

 However, if the land can maintain its nutritional condition on its own under the influence of the atmosphere, it may be possible to do so even without Valkyries.

 We would prefer not to have such a future if possible, but we can be self-sufficient inside in case we have to be besieged in Vulcania.
