"Oh, yeah. I can't lose!"

 No matter how inhuman the work of the golem maids was, and no matter how much they showed it, there was not a single person in the village of Kaina who felt foolish for doing their job.

 Everyone loved their work and took pride in their labor.

"The mill seems to be working properly. ......"

 Jin and Reiko had come to the mill.

"Oh Jin, you're here.

"I see. I'm glad to hear that.

"Jin-sama!"

 The time was 11:00 a.m.

 Nido Castle rings bells in the morning, at noon, and in the evening, so Jin guessed that lunch would be served at the noon bell.

"That's how it was when I was there."

 Jin knew from experience that the ladies would be able to prepare only a simple meal since all the workers were working together.

 So he had the old man cook a lot of rice for them in advance.

 All the five colored golem maids working at Nido Castle were there, so by half past eleven, there were more than enough rice balls and the tea was ready.

Here's a hand towel. I thought you could clean your hands before you eat.

"Oh, that's great. I've just recently gotten into the habit of washing my hands before eating.

"Oh, Dr. Sallee, it's been a long time."

"Hi, Elsa, glad to see you're doing well."

 At that moment, the bell rang to signal noon.

 Everyone stopped working and came back from the fields and the square one by one.
