The project team at the Blacksmith's Workshop first discussed the general size and function of the ship.

"So, Aiga, what do you want to do? The ship you are looking for can be found at ......


The size of the troops can be 100 to 150 men.

The size of the troops can be 100 to 150 people.

The ability to attack, mainly with fusion magic.

The ability to attack mainly with fusion magic.


　I'm not going to be able to say that I'm not going to be able to do anything about it.

　I'm sure it reminds me of that.

I'm not going to be able to get in. I would have liked to get a rider on board if I could.

Horses?

　Yeah.

　Last time I was thinking about building a cavalry unit.

　There's also the example of the Black King Maru.

　I thought that if I could get more horses to learn the flying magic of Wollertus, we could create a strong 'airborne vanguard' unit.

If we can get them on board, they will be very mobile, right?　We can even fight in the air at sea. So I'd like to have a large stable facility, if possible.

Good. That's good. How many cows do you want to take with you?

''Hmm, it would be ideal if we had as many vanguard swordsmen as we could, but I'd like to have four or fifty.

I'm here.

　And that's when the momentum of Liv licked the nib.

"One moment, please.

　The shipbuilder's engineer in Okuga waited.

"That's a little unrealistic, sir.

Why?

"Since ancient times, it has been known that transporting a large number of horses by ship has been a challenge. Horses are very delicate creatures, and they need to be loaded with water, hay, and feces and urine. For this reason, it is not practical to transport many horses by ship to fight.

Mmm. ......

　It was true that even with just one Black King Maru, taking care of the horses in the boat was a difficult task.

How many horses can you take on board?

'It's going to come down to space for the other weapons we carry, but I'd say four or five heads or ...... or so is the limit.

Because, Eigha.

Hmmm ......

　Unfortunately, it seemed that they had to compromise on that point this time.

''Instead, I'm going to load you up with a weapon that's even more advanced than the magic gun I had the other day!

'Liv! ...... Yeah. I'm asking for it.

　Once the conversation had progressed in this way and the approximate size of the ship was determined, it was decided to finish the dock accordingly.

　By the way, this is what a 'dock' looks like in cross-sectional drawing.

　is a sluice gate.

　In other words, the ship is built (or repaired or altered) in a space below sea level, and then filled with water, floated, and sluice gates are opened to allow the ship to sail .......


　However, the reclamation work had been completed, and a hollow in the vicinity of the shore had been dug out, but in order to add specific shipbuilding functions to the dock, this would have to be in the realm of construction - the work of a carpenter.


　That's why I marked the experience transfer skill to the "carpenter's masterpiece" that I've had my eye on for some time.

(He was the master carpenter who built the "Yakata" and the blacksmithing workshop. It would be nice if the territory's 【Construction Ability】 itself would also increase through this project.)

　However, the headache is that if that happens, the receiver's quota will be insufficient.

　There are three slots that can mark receivers and transfer experience values.

　I decided to go to the mansion for now and collect the receiver that had been replaced by Manaka.

　It's time to put an end to the maids' talents and the clothing industry for now.

　So where will I mark the last receiver, I will 'replace' it and allocate the experience.

　In other words, I will now go on a quest, gain experience for a while and then return to my territory in the Black King circle to reassign receivers and return to the quest.

　This is how I'm going to distribute the experience by having multiple people rotate a receiver slot.

　In this way, I can send experience to all the people who participate in the ship's project, evenly.

　I'm just going to concentrate on Liv for a while, though.

　The carpenter's master carpenter will be stationary until the dock is ready, and then he'll be reassigned.

　The first in the third frame is Ichitaro, but I want to send experience to another child, so I'm tentatively marking him for now.

　Here's how it went.

　This is a rough job I can do now that the enemies I can beat are getting stronger.

　Now I just need to complete the A-class quests to gain barely enough experience.

　And if that's the case, then the [Tower of One Wing] where we can acquire fusion stones would be a good place to start.

　If we can transfer the experience gained from defeating golems there and acquire fusion stones at the same time, it would be a very efficient way to raise the level of the game.


　Zack Zack...... Cone!　Cone! ...... Gahhhhhh!


　But the troops are super busy right now with the final stage of civil engineering work digging into the hollow of the dock.


　And it's already 'rice planting' next week.

　There are many members of the 150-man squad who are from 'Nakamura', and when it's time for them to plant rice, they stop their adventures and go home to their parents.

'Hmmm ......'

　So I came up with a plan to organize a "mini-expedition" to the Katahira Tower with an elite unit of 25 people from the village who had nothing to do with rice planting (other than "Nakamura").

　This elite unit would be composed of aces such as Gitaro Bando, Chiyo, Nao, Kyoko, Eriko-san, and Hanako Saionji.

　We had enough items such as wind gear, demon ore arrowheads, and rare magic stones red and blue balls.

　And before that.

　One of the three sailing ships is given to Akira and his men, and they are finally sent to Onigashima to mine iron.

　And when the dock's hollow is also being dug up: ......

　Rice planting has begun in "Nakamura," the largest in the territory, with a population of 1,500.
