275 Chapter 18-17 Matchmaking Stories

"Well, it was two pairs that won, but it turned out that both pairs had faults." Together with the shortcomings of the four legs, I would like you to suggest points for improvement. Let's start with four legs. "

Since the goal was two pairs, I feel that it would be good to mass-produce two pairs, but there are many areas that should be improved, so I decided to ask everyone to point out where they felt.

I can't move anymore.

"It wasn't faster than I thought."

You can go straight ahead, but it looks like you can't make a steep curve.

It looks like I won't be able to stand up if I fall.

“I couldn't see anything!”

Amur, Grandpa, Jeanne, Primera, Aura.

Amur said that he hated the movement of the four legs running on a rectangular box-like body and a dog-like leg. Grandpa and Jeanne share my opinion, and that's the biggest problem with these four legs. Then, as a new disadvantage, something that could not stand up came out of the primera.

I couldn't get up because I couldn't say for sure because I could see the place where my four legs were lying down from the primera.

"Just before the two legs fell, they were moving like four legs in the sky. However, maybe I was just trying to keep running."

Either way, I thought it was a new flaw. Even if you can't get up, or if you fall and don't get up, even if you keep moving your legs, that's it.

So, what about your two legs?

We're late, but we did our best!

"I don't think so. It's too late."

I knew you didn't like curves.

It looks like my body is out of balance and I can't get down the stairs.

"My limbs are too short."

As Aura pointed out, the two-legged Amur tried to bite.

"Oh, so you rolled down the stairs."

It seemed to me the most important flaw. Precisely in combination with the shortcomings pointed out by Primera, "I can't go down the stairs because my limbs are short".

“Because of the short limbs, it's easy to lose balance when trying to get down the stairs. However, thanks to the thicker limbs than the four legs, I was able to move even if I rolled down the stairs."

”Hmm, I see... then the two-legged flaws might be easier to improve than the four-legged one”

They both have the disadvantage of not being good at stairs, but they're better at moving two legs than four legs that fall and can't move.

On the contrary, it seems that you can use the flaws to use the war technique that rolls down the stairs.

That said, if a golem rolled from above, it could do a lot of damage, but if it could get rampage after it rolled, it wouldn't be an enemy.

"Apart from the fact that there is a scene of rolling down the stairs, it is good to increase the method of warfare." Well, I have to make it sturdy. "

"But can't you jump over when you're small?" It's impossible for the pursuer to jump over, but magic and arrows and spears? "

"There's no need for two pairs to stop it. It's Chris's job to be a shield for magic and arrows. I'm sure that Chris will prevent both arrows and magic with his body."

In the middle of my conversation with my grandfather, Aura said what she wondered, but Amur kicked her ass.

"Well, it's definitely Chris's job, but it's precisely the job of the Guard and the Guard Golem." These two-legged tasks are physical enemy sabotage, and it's your job to create a distance between the king and his enemies, so it's second and third time to defeat them and prevent them from attacking. ”

From the beginning, the mass-production type was thought to be made for the purpose of disturbing, so the fighting power was not very important. It's a real bonus. Moreover, even if the total length is 1m, if you raise your hands, it should be about 50cm higher, so depending on the method, you may be able to prevent magic and arrows.

"Anyway, I guess I'll have to try to make something that improves the shortcomings I pointed out." You may come up with a different way of using the product than it was meant to be used while moving it. "

That's why I wrote the blueprints so that I could improve my faults as much as possible, but my grandfather's help was over here, and I made all the parts. Instead of making a single unit, we decided to mass-produce each part and assemble all the parts together. Since magic is needed to finish the work, my grandfather might be the only one who can do it by surprise, but even the provisional team doesn't need magic, so they will also need to help us with the primera.

About a month and a half from mass production. It was no longer uncommon for snow to fall around the capital, and the struggle near the border of the frontier province was won by the kingdom side, which drove the Imperial Army out of the frontier province. However, there are aspects that have been raised because it has become difficult for the Empire to maintain the front on the kingdom side due to the snow, and the enemy army is still standing near the border on the empire side. Because of this, the Royal Army, which centered on the Houston Frontier Army, was unable to raise the army even though it was old.

At a king-sponsored party held in such a way, it was rarely attended in recent years. From a cursory look, it was just one-third of the party that took place the previous year. The reason for this was that the royalists returned to their own territory so that they could go to Houston at any time, so with about half of the participation in the previous year, the reformers began to stand out against the royalists when the imperialists attacked, and about 80% to 90% of the nobles who expressed their non-participation (but stayed in the royal capital) because of what they said. The neutrals were wary of the Royalists and Reformers or, for various reasons, more than half did not participate or returned to their territory. So naturally, there were few public invitees who were alert to the bad air.

When I was invited to do that,

"I want to go home early..."

I couldn't wait to go home, even before the party started.

"Well, I know how it feels, but I need to show my face at a time like this and promote my friendship with the royalty." Besides, I think we have something to give Alex and the others. "

The Reformers are quiet for now, but it will be noisy when the Empire starts to attack again in the spring. In order to do so, the Otori family needs to be reminded that they have a good relationship with the royal family. Well, I'm actually a good friend, and I advertise every single thing, so it may be even more important now, but it only makes sense when the royal capital is thin. That said, I have my own circumstances, and I think it would be okay if Grandpa joined the Otori family on my behalf... but Grandpa also said that he didn't want to join because it was troublesome, so we fought each other and eventually the two of us ended up attending.

By the way, if you ask me why I don't want to attend,

"Temma, help me... I knew Primera was pregnant, so Eliza... please, give me some healing pills..."

It was because Primera's pregnancy was discovered.

I was worried because I felt unwell before and after the production of the mass-production type golem, but I had symptoms that appeared a little later, so I was introduced to the midwife by Maria-sama's hand and was examined, and was told that the possibility of pregnancy was extremely high. Honestly, if I hadn't noticed, I would have prepared the medicine as usual, so it was a cold sweat. I was also told to tell the birth mother about it. If Primera needs medicine in the future, the mother-in-law will prepare it, so I asked for it.

The temples of the rocks didn't know anything about pregnancy, did they?

Grandpa laughed, but he thought that pregnancy was unrelated, so he had no choice. In any case, when I was in Kukri Village, the people in the village would not get pregnant, and although my mother left a book that said how to deal with my pregnancy, it didn't seem very useful as an adventurer, so I went through it. So, I'm studying now.

"That's what grandpa said, too, is a similar or a similar habit... look, it's a nutritional pill."

When I gave it to Albert thinking that nutritional medicine would be better than healing medicine, I drank it all at once. After I drank the nutrients, I was slightly energized about the placebo effect, but it should be back to normal anyway, so I should give some before I go home.

"Speaking of which, my father sent me a stupid letter." It's a shame you can't get away from the border when it matters. Plus, I got a letter telling me never to do anything that would be a burden to Primera. And I have a letter for Temma. "

I think Eliza is more burdensome than Albert, but... it must be life (...) and death (...). It may seem that the wife's responsibility is that of her husband.

"Well... in summary, 'Congratulations. I should be able to return by the time the child is born, so let's celebrate again at that time. Also, in spring, my wives are supposed to go to play, so please do me a favor."... it says something like that. "

There are other things that are written with excitement and stupidity, and the text is longer, but this is how it looks when I briefly explain it.

"In spring, my mothers will come... but I don't think all three of them will be here." Perhaps, one by one, in turn. Otherwise, there will be no one in charge in Lindo. "

Now that the Sangha Duke is on the battlefield, the mother-in-laws will have to protect Lindo. The Duke of Sangha may be able to return to Lindo if the fighting stalls, but it is better to think that it will not be possible to reach the capital.

"Whether the child born is a boy or a girl, it must be hard to find someone." in the sense of who to choose. "

"Considering our situation, I think there are many places to talk, but I don't want to say anything unless the opponent is bad... As far as I'm concerned, I would rather value the compatibility of children than the connections between houses." Well, that's also the story of when you were born safely and grew up safely. "

Considering the friendship of the Otori family, including the royal family, I can see that my children are overflowing with people trying to get married. So, I think we have to take those measures firmly, but we need to discuss it with Primera, but given the current state of Primera, it will be sufficient after the situation has settled down.

"Nevertheless, Primera is a terrible story, can't you do something with magic or medicine?"

"The midwife said that it is better not to use medicine or magic as much as possible during pregnancy. Of course, it seems that it must be used in the event of an emergency, but if it is as tight as it is now, the risk from magic and medicine is greater."

If I use it poorly in the first trimester of pregnancy, it seems that magic power and medicine can adversely affect the fetus, so I was told not to use it except when the primer is in a dangerous state. And when you have to use it in such a situation, be prepared to give up on your child. However, if you put it in the second trimester of pregnancy, you don't have to be so sensitive to magic power. However, even so, the strong magic power can be poisonous to the fetus, so it seems safer not to use it as much as possible.

"I don't know what to say... I can only tell you about the moon, but being a mother is a big deal."

"That's why I wanted to be a little closer to Primera, but that Primera told me to attend the party." The aunts from Kukri Village are also waiting in the mansion if anything happens, so I was told to go with Grandpa..... "

“I want you to do your job outside, because the man is with me at home and not at home.”

So I'd like you to start the party right away, but it's going to take a while before it starts.

"Well, this year, there are fewer participants than usual, so it will be shorter than usual... maybe"

I decided to wait quietly for the kings to come, hoping that they would.

"That's right, what happened to Eliza?" And Leon and Cain? "

And Eliza came with Lady Sierra, and was caught early by the women of the royalty. Leon and Cain were around to say hello. In particular, Leon was careful because the battlefield was in the Peripheral Realm. Cain followed him. I could have gone around with you, but going around with the three of us would have been intrusive, and in some cases it could have been taken under pressure. I'm going to go around and say hello after you two are done. "

If this is the Duke of Sangha, he'll be in a position to wait for him to come and say hello, but he won't be in a position to say hello. Besides, my parents are in a position to be the organizers of this war, so I need to pay attention to various things.

When they were talking about it, the kings finally appeared at the venue.

All the participants from the royal family, except for Mizaria and Luna, said that Amy had come to the royal castle, but she would not attend the party. Then why are you here at the Royal Castle.....

You're dealing with Luna-sama.

And the butler who was sneaking in behind me as usual (Clif-san) told me. Besides, Mizaria-sama and Amy didn't have much contact so far, so they were enjoying a tea party together to deepen their exchanges.

"The area around His Majesty is still noisy, so please come over here with Temma and Merlin." Ernesto said he wanted me to call him because he's free. "

I'm lying down about the golem, but I told you in advance that I would take my souvenirs with me, so I told you I wanted to check the contents before handing them over to the king. My grandfather seems to hate it... but it's only a matter of whether it's early or late because he'll meet up at some point during the party and have a drink while fighting.

Cliff was guided to a place dedicated to high status aristocrats in the east house at the end of the venue, which was a great place to talk about secrets with no place to hide.

"Oh, Temma, I'm sorry to call you." And congratulations on your wife's pregnancy. "

As I approached the East House, Ernesto, who noticed me, called out... without looking at my grandfather at all.

It seems that Ernesto, who usually prefers a low level of alcohol at parties, is drinking tea unusually today, so he realizes that my souvenirs are not just souvenirs.

"I'm sorry, but can you tell me about the souvenirs?" Normally, Konoe would check the things that are given to His Majesty, but this time, you're not free. I was supposed to check things out. It's just that verbal copycats like showing off souvenirs at a party are a waste of time. "

It would be a good decision not to divulge a little information about the souvenirs to the outside with the reason.

“As you know from Din's report, we have about a hundred mass-produced golems. However, since this golem is built from scratch, it requires a lot of space, if not a lot of small size. For now, we have several dimensional bags dedicated to that golem, but there is a risk that there will not be enough in the future depending on the mass production.”

And when I told him the identity of the souvenir, not only Ernesto, but also Clif, was vague. After all, it is usually difficult to create a golem, and it costs hundreds of thousands of G to make one. Well, in my case, the important thing is that I almost made it by myself, so the technical fee is free of charge, and I don't have enough material costs, so I bought additional items, but most of them were collected and stored by myself, so the amount spent on the mass-production type golem was about 100 units of iron (about 200kg), which was not enough, and the cost of the commercial bag used to make the dimensional bag, which was about 30,000G.

“I reused half of the iron as a weapon, and I bought a second-hand bag, so it didn't take much.”

Tell me the breakdown of the price, and then laugh and talk with Grandpa about the failure of the production.

"Temma... I can't talk about mass-production of cheap golems anywhere else." Absolutely not! The House of Otoli is a dangerous house with a secret build-up of mighty armies, which means that the Reformers, as well as the Neutrals and the Royalists, will be the ones to blame! No, I just wish I could be strangled, but I don't know how anyone who saw the Otori family as dangerous would get out. If the tip of the spear is only for Temma and the imbecile there, it will surely be directed at Primera, the child born, or someone who has no armed force close to Temma! "

Ernesto's words, which were tougher than usual, began to stir up the aristocrats who watched us from afar. I don't know what we were talking about because we're so far apart, but I think Ernesto probably had a fierce argument because of his rough voice. Well, I'm sure Ernesto got angry... but that's a warning against my lack of crisis management, so it's not something that leaves any charm or lumps behind. Therefore, I want the nobility more than the royalists to be reassured, and I want the nobility more than the reformers to be definitely discouraged... although I can't tell you what caused it.

"It's not that noisy, but I fully understand it." Besides, even though the temples have been out of sync for a long time,

"Even if the lord understands, if you don't understand the temples that matter, it doesn't make sense!" And if you understand, why don't you be careful! "

”No, well, that's it... I just forgot to be careful”

"My lord is guilty of the same!" Temma and I are so awful... no, if Temma's involvement in education caused her to become like this... maybe she's the main culprit! "

I'm the main culprit... but I can't deny that my grandfather inspired me before I knew it. Besides, Ernesto, who should have scolded me sometime, is always arguing with Grandpa.

"That's good, Master Temma." Thanks to those two, it seems that the nobles who listened in vain decided that it was their usual quarrel. I don't think we're going to do that... but I hope the results are good. Whoa, how about a cup of tea? I will prepare something very sinister. "

"Three cups of sugar, one of which contains about the same amount of tangy sugar, and the other two without fiercely tangy sugar, please."

After this, Mr. Cliff subtly gave the two of them a fiercely astringent cup of tea (slightly chilled so that they could drink it all at once) and rubbed the sin against me.

"I yelled at you, but I'd like to thank the royal family for these." Besides, I might ask you to add it, but at that time, it would be helpful if you could take it as far as you can. "

"After all, take it." Even though you're yelling at me like that, I'm doing fine. "

"If someone doesn't say it, Temma and your lord will remain rampant!" If only they knew that they were out of standard, I wouldn't have to say this! "

"I am grateful for that." I'll do my best to accommodate the addition... please consult with Maria-sama before contacting me. "

For a moment, I almost said, "Please don't hesitate to say it," but when I do, there are people who come directly to me and try to order it, so it definitely stands out. I was sure to ask Maria-sama to take care of this kind of management. Maria won't complain if she decides who will hold it for how long, and if Maria will come to pick up the golem, it will be Aina or Chris, so even if she comes to us, it won't stand out, and even if the reformers suspect it, it won't be judged to be unnatural.

"I guess that's good." I'll tell them to you. So, this is the end of the story. Temma, it's time for you to calm down around your majesty, so if you want to speak up, now is the time. If it's too late, I'll come and find you. "

"It's going to be troublesome," said Grandpa, and he got up, so Ernest and I split up and decided to go to the king. Ernesto said it was time to settle down, but the nobility was still surrounding him. I didn't want to be caught by other nobles, so I wanted to crush a little more time on the right, but before that, the king found me and approached me from the other side, so I had no choice but to bear with it.

However, the king talked about Primera's pregnancy in a place where there were still people around, so it stood out in a different way. Well, I didn't mean to keep it a secret, but until Primera's health had calmed down, she said she wouldn't know anyone but her closest acquaintances (even Leon didn't leak it to anyone).....

I thought I would say a word, but the moment the king scattered, Maria-sama moved, so I had no choice but to see off the two of them who were disappearing somewhere as usual. In addition, Caesar and Zayn and Lyle apologized for the incident, so it was necessary to accept the apology without showing any discomfort on the surface. Well, as usual, that's it.

After that, I was able to have a party without any particular problems because someone from the royal family was nearby as much as I could, but... the next day, I started talking to the children of Primera.
