　Roa wanted to see the installation of the additional magical equipment, so Roa, Hippopo and I had come to the pond where we had saved the white lizard.

"Hippopo. "Hippopo, please check to make sure."

"Bumo!" Hippopo dives into the pond.

　Rohr watches silently. In the meantime, I prepare the magical tools that I plan to install here. However, I have already made the magic tool itself. This time, I had made it beforehand in my tent because it was too difficult to make by simple smelting.

　I take out the magical tool.

　At a glance, it looks like a long tube about the height of a person.

　It is coated with the poisonous scent of the tentacles of a catfish monster that used to live in this pond. Therefore, when you take it out, a peculiar smell wafts around the area. This should make the monsters around here wary of you.

　Meanwhile, a hippopotamus comes out of the pond. In its mouth are a few fish-shaped monsters.

　Nothing big.

　It seems that with the disappearance of the catfish monsters that used to be the mainstay of the area, other monsters have gradually started to enter.

"Thanks for checking," I thank Hippopo, and begin to set up my magic tools.

"What is it?　Are special monster magic stones used?" Roa peeks in from behind.

"Yes, yes. We went out to look for this monster, didn't we? We had to go to the volcano. It was hot and hard work.

What kind of monster?

"It's a cloud-like thing called a paralyzed cloud."

"What!　That's a special rank of danger. It's a difficult enemy that physical attacks are ineffective. ......"

"Yes, yes. That's it," I said as I pushed my magic tool out from the edge of the pond and thrust it into the water.

"I'll have a notification when the water runs dry. I then set the target to receive feedback for switching to ......", I tweak the magic circuits of the mage that I have stuck in the pond.

　Of course, I don't draw directly. I don't want to get my feet wet. Using the scroll of Projection, I finish the work without entering the pond.

"Okay, it's done!　I'm going to activate it," he tells Roa.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As soon as it is activated, Wong and the magic circle spread out from the center of the magical tool.

　The magic circle descends down the tube of the grimoire to the surface of the pond.

"What kind of magic tool is that? Roa.

"It's an original, so I don't have a name for it, but if I had to guess, I'd say it's a cloud watering system," he replies as he watches the device in action.

　The water in the pond that touches the magic circle that reaches the surface of the water turns into clouds.

"Is that a cloud of white?　Is it heated?" Roa.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"No, it would cost too much to process a large amount of water. That's why we're using the magic stone from the Paralyze Cloud.

"What do you mean?" Roa.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I guess he is so happy to see the water supply increase, he seems to be very enthusiastic about it.

"Paralyze Cloud is a cloud monster, and it usually rewrites the laws of physics around the core magic stone with magic. It's a monster that usually rewrites the laws of physics around the magic stone that forms the core of the monster. And they manipulate the cloud so that it doesn't spread. That device is basically the same thing.

　As I was explaining, the clouds that just rose from the magic circle united at the top edge of the magic tool and began to move horizontally like a wisp of smoke. Toward the direction of the encampment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"We have made it so that the clouds will unite and move to the water jar at the encampment. We've also drawn a magic circle on the water jar with the destination, and when we reach it, the rewriting of the laws of physics will be broken and we'll be back in water.

"This is all the way to the encampment!　I can't believe they transport water that way. ....... Roa looked surprised and said, "It's impossible.

"Is it?　But in a remote area, it is obvious that monsters will destroy the pipes if they are passed through them over long distances, whether underground or above ground. There is not enough material in all the pipes to provide enough protection against monsters. Lois, try to disturb that cloud for a minute," I pointed to a streak of cloud that flowed out from the device.

　Roa silently waved his spear at the cloud.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The wind pressure from the spear disrupts the cloud for a moment, but it soon continues to move toward the encampment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, I guess the advantage is that it's resistant to interference like this."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Roa looks speechless for some reason.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In the meantime, I check the status of the cloud water system by scrolling the transcription. After confirming that the feedback from the water bottles on the camp side is coming in properly, I start to prepare to leave.

"Roa, it's time to go back to the encampment," I say to him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was then.

Roa said, "Ary's sister is coming. It seemed that she was watching us with the power of her eyes.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We wait for a while, and then we actually see Ary coming toward us in a hurry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He is running toward us and shouting.

"Master Rust!　It's from Kalin. Please return immediately!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It appeared to be a call from Kalin.
