CH 92.1

Although the hottest season has passed, summer is still in full swing.

Sunburned children were running along the streets, construction workers were drinking water as if they were being drenched, and a theater that was just being built shone brightly under the sun on its white exterior walls.

Yes, a theater. The construction of my theater, my long-cherished childhood dream, that started in winter and progressed rapidly, had the second of its five floors completed.

Even though it was still under construction, I was sure that my theater, with white columns as beautiful as egrets, would be a hit with the townspeople, which has few tall buildings. However, the people of Torquiva were talking about something else day after day and it’s not about the new theater.

「Is it a little bigger than yesterday?」

「Yes, it is. From the front of the bar, the giant’s face is right on the edge of the roof of Glen’s inn. Yesterday, it was right over its eyes but today, it’s up to its nose.」

「Really?」

「It’s true. I see it everyday.」

「You’ve got a lot of time in your hands, don’t you?」

I was just informed by Chicken yesterday that there are conversations like that happening all over Torquiva.

In short, it was all about the giant outside the city. I’m not talking about the heroes who have come to protect this planet but the clock tower class  monster I’m building.

It’s already more than halfway through the process. It had broken through the tent of the building dock and reached to the sky, towering like a real clock tower.

The people of the city, who knew that our house had been doing various things for a long time, seemed to come to the top of the city walls to watch it without care but the intelligence officers(spies) in Torquiva were not so impressed.

For a while, after the day the magic construct’s head poked out of the tent, the train was overcrowded…..

New adventurers, mages, who were well equipped and fit, and who were probably assigned to watch over the gigantic magic construct from outside the city, poured into the city by the hundred.

They set up camp outside the city in shifts, day after day, night after night, kicking around behemoths and super behemoth demon beasts while keeping a watchful eye.

I don’t know how they do it in this heat but it’s really tough being a soldier.

I was enjoying cool air while nursing my twins as I looked out the window of my room while looking at the intelligence officers’ station whose windows were still closed even though it was summer.

「Au～」

「Ah～So cool, right～? Good for you, Noah-kun～」

Yeah, cool air. I had finally made it.

I combined my home-made air-conditioning equipment with a home made temperature sensing device and completed a magic crystal powered air conditioner.

「Uuu～」

「Noah-kun～nice and cool～」

The cool breeze from the big square box air conditioner bathed Noah’s face and he looked comfortable as I patted Noah’s back and slowly rocked his body.

The twins, who are usually in a good mood, are in an even better mood in front of the air conditioner.

The air conditioner, which had been blowing air, suddenly stopped working with a “click” and Noah cackled when he heard the sound.

Good, good, the temperature control function is working well.

When the room temperature rises above 25 degrees Celsius, the air conditioning unit, that is equipped with a “magic construct”, turns itself on and off to prevent overcooling. A primitive but reliable feature.

The temperature can’t be adjusted in detail yet but that will be a problem to be solved in the future.

「Uhh?」

「Is Noah finished getting dressed yet?」

「Ah, it’s done.」

While I was thinking about that while patting Noah’s back, who was patting the turned off air conditioner with a curious look on his face, the door to the room opened and Laura-san appeared.
