"Yes, Your Highness, it's a thread made by a recently discovered subterranean spider.

This is the town of Bundalot in the Marquisate of Theoderic.
A factory has been built there to process the threads of the ground spider, and Tengkhunhan is the technical director of the factory.
Grand spiders were thought to be extinct, but they still live in the mountains of Mitsuho. We have bred them and imported them to our country.

Do you have farms in our country?
Yes. We are still only running a trial operation, but it is located on the mountainside of Mount Baksa.
Baksa is a mountain further west of Bundarlot, also in the territory of the Marquis of Theoderic.

"I'd like to see that, too. ......"
But, as expected, that hope is unlikely to be fulfilled.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry, but I can't do that."

"Hmm, I see... ......"
After that, I was shown the products made from the threads of the ground spider, namely ground spider resin (GSP) and ground spider silk (GSS ), made from the threads of ground spiders (ground spiders).

"Various products are made from these."
The GSS is used not only for high quality clothing but also for knight's coats, he explained.
"It is not only strong but also flame-resistant. Moreover, it does not dissolve in the dissolving liquid that demons spit out.

"Wow, it's an amazing material."
It is an excellent material that can withstand various acids, alkaline solutions, hydrogen fluoride, and gigantopods.
We can even make cups like this.

"Wow!"
This is a GSP (ground spider resin).
"The cost still has to come down before it can be widely used.

Shoro is a large country.
The climate varies from region to region.
One day we went to Hatata, a town on the dry road (Trockenbahn).
Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com
It is a dry area with little rainfall.
You see how short the eaves are? That's because there is not much rain.
"Oh, that's why!"

For His Highness Ernst, everything he sees and hears is unusual.
"Ah, because of the scarcity of rain, water is precious in this town, isn't it?"
"Yes. Your Highness, please take a good look around.

We are not just reading or hearing stories, but seeing with our own eyes, hearing with our own ears, and touching with our own hands. The wise Ernst had realized over the past few days that this was such a precious opportunity.
"I'm staying at this inn today."

The group entered the two-story inn, a rarity in the town.
"Welcome!
The innkeeper brings us a rinse.

It's a service unique to this dusty region.
"I see."
The girl went back to get the rinse once more, because it was not enough for everyone.

As Ernst watched, she was pumping water from a pump in the courtyard of the inn.
"What is that?"
"That is a deep well pump that was installed by Reinhard Randall and Jin Nido a long time ago," the innkeeper explained.

The innkeeper explained.
"Heh. ......"
Ernst felt even more respect for Jin, who was able to create such tools.

"Wow, it's very lively!

"It's been growing since diplomatic relations with Mitskho were formalized about a year ago.
"Your aunt is very impressive. ......"
Ernst understands that this is the achievement of his aunt, the female emperor.

"That's great. What about me? ......"
These thoughts are the groundwork for the next emperor, much to the chagrin of the man himself.
