 Saki, Toa, Stearina, Vivian, and Goose were the only ones who remained.

 Saki asked.

"If you're going, I want to go too.

"Oh, me too.

"Me too."

 Saki, Goose, and Vivienne all offered their candidacy.

"Yeah, I'd love to go. I'll be there in a day or two. Before winter.

 The demon territory is in the north, so it would be best to visit before the snow falls.



 Toa and Stearina had decided not to go this time, and both returned to the Shoro Kingdom.

"Well then, let's go and retrieve the other one.

"The other one?"

 Saki asked at Jin's words.

"You know, the material extractor we put in the ocean."

"Oh, the one developed by the previous generation."

 Jin ordered the golem maid in charge to retrieve it.

 This was immediately carried out, and five minutes later, the "Material Extractor," a magical material extraction device, and the materials arrived at Jin's hand.

"Well, you have quite a lot of materials.

 About 250 grams of mithril silver and 90 grams of adamantite were extracted from the seawater.

"That's quite promising for two whole days.

"Not in large quantities, but I think we can get a little of everything, Jin."

"Your predecessors are very good."

 Saki and Goose were also impressed.

 At that moment, the old man spoke to him.

"What's the matter, My Lord?"

What do you mean, "Can I have one?"

and<> with this Ars, it seems that Ars has less underground resources.

 The debris is, after all, an internal satellite of the 5th planet.

"<>, right?"

 Saki adds.

<<"That's right.

 Someone who has a base on the island of Onogoro may be distributing not only free magical elements (ether) but also the resources of this planet, the old man concluded.

"I see. ...... I see."

 One of the reasons why <> abandoned its home planet, Hale, was the depletion of its resources. If this is how they are compensating for it.

 Therefore, they mined the resources with moderation and sent them to Hale.

<
 As an additional note, the development of the southern hemisphere should not have progressed due to the lack of free magical element (ether).

 If they did some exploratory drilling somewhere and the resources were abundant, it would confirm the hypothesis.

"...... is great, old man."

 Jin was impressed by the old man's ability.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!

 Beside Jin, Saki was also impressed.

"Hmmm.... That's a very likely story. After all, <> must have been the base of the <> ...... or at least a faction of them on this planet."

 Goose was also compiling his own information.

"I wonder if they served both the who emigrated and the who remained in Hale?"

 Vivian questioned.

"Perhaps they did. But the priority would be Hale, who was on the verge of extinction.

 Jin felt somewhat the same way since the recent debris incident.

"Kuhu, we can no longer avoid investigating Hale, can we?

"Yes, that's right."

 It is still good for now, but if things continue as they are, there may eventually be a conflict between Ars and Hale over the resources.

 This is something that Jin would like to avoid.

 And if there is a conflict, .......

(I will protect Ars.)

 No doubt about that, but I didn't want it to turn into an interplanetary war, something that would be out of a science fiction novel.

"Well, that's a story for after we investigate Hale."

 For that investigation, Jin wanted a telephoto device.

"Brother Jin, the point is to observe things from a distance, right?"

Yes, that's right.

Then, why don't we make a super-compact magic eye and control it remotely?

"...... sure."

 This is a typical example of how we should not confuse the means with the end.

"We should build that one first.

 And we can definitely make that one. It is an extension of the existing technology.

 Thinking about this, Jin had an epiphany. < is not because it is an extension, but because it is an interrupted technology, a technology that does not exist.

"Maybe we have aimed too much at a single step.

 We have to clear the problems one by one toward the realization. I had forgotten such a basic principle and set too high a goal all at once.

 It was Jin who reflected a little on this.

 So, first of all, a remote-controlled camera, which he named <.

 Finally, the camera was processed and assembled by <> into a spherical shape with a diameter of 1 cm.

 The , an ultra-compact force field generator, enables short-range flight and attitude control, and the field of view can be zoomed.

 Like the original , the images are sent to a counterpart .

 Theoretically, the distance over which images can be sent is infinite, but in practice it is probably tens of thousands of kilometers.

 This is sufficient performance for a start.

I think it's safe to say that retrieval will be impossible."

"Well, it's a bit of a waste, though."

 Elsa's typical opinion came up.

"Based on this, I would like to think of something with even better performance."

"I agree."

 The rest of the meeting was to be held the next day.
