Tuna turned her head with her hair slightly swaying over her shoulders, and she smiled and liked it. Carrot put on a tired expression.

“How about that laugh? Ohoho and laugh.”

“Ho-ho-ho. Eh, like this?”

She lifted the rest of her hair and tied it tightly with a leather strap, revealing the thin nape of her neck. Turning her head around, Tuna got up from her seat.

“Come on, it’s comfortable. Gee, I should have cut it right away.”

“I will use this hair well.”

“Uh, uh, are you going to post it to Lotte?”

Crank looked at the two automatons lying on the workbench and nodded. Ariete came out.

“I am?”

Crank averted his flashing eyes, sat her down, grabbed a pair of scissors and a comb, and ignited his artistic spirit.

“ruler! mirror!”

When Carrot stood in front of the mirror, her hair was the same length.

“Isn’t it cut?”

“It was out of shape, so I trimmed it a bit. It looks better. Your hair is also Zion’s now. Automatons have a tendency to maintain good manners, right? It would have bothered you.”

“and?! really? Why?”

Crank looked at Carrot and said.

“Because just as God wanted something for humans, we also wanted it for you guys.”

“ha ha ha! You’re neat! But you guys are really messy!”

“So even more.”

Ariete, who was looking at her hair, nodded.

From noble mtl dot com

“thank you.”

Turning around, Crank let out a long sigh as he now leaned back in his chair.

“…you’re tired.”

“Take a rest.”

Carrot stands in front of the mirror and reflects Crank’s face. He laughs at his pitch.

“To prepare for a business trip to the south in the winter, diligent maintenance is required. There are many things going on this time, so it’s tight.”

One of those various things is running out to the empty lot and dancing again, and the other is boiling something excitedly laughing in the simple laboratory next to the boiler.

“It doesn’t matter if I can’t go on a business trip. You can work on the farm.”

“That’s not allowed. I need money. And to put this to the test, practice is essential.”

Crank said that and took out a box from under the workbench and opened it.

“Oh wow. what’s this? Are there two mana engines attached?”

“I named it Twin Engine. Let’s hang on you. The output will double.”

And automatons always pursue the minimum armed capability.

To protect humans, to protect oneself,

Carrot’s candid eyes widened in the desire to become stronger.

“let’s go! Southern business trip! cheer up! crank!”

“hmm!”

The two of them got along well, but that didn’t diminish that much.

“So I had no choice but to leave the combat uniform.”

Maria, the president of the Argon Women’s Association and the owner of the inn, smiled happily when she saw Carrot carrying a cart full of parts and materials.

“Good! Even if it wasn’t so, I was bored because I had no work these days. If you don’t do anything at the old people’s house, you’ll get noticed? I’ll gather people right away from today.”

“is it so? I’m glad. But this time it is a bit difficult.”

Upon receiving the drawing, Maria scratched her head a bit.

“This is a bit complicated, are you going to wear it?”

“yes. This is a new deal.”

“The blades are stored in two tiers inside the skirt, which is complicated. First of all, I have to complete the jacket, and when I make the skirt, Crank has to come and look at it for a while.”

Carrot said, holding out the next drawing.

“And I need three Mark 2 combat uniforms.”

“Isn’t that slightly modified from the last one you made? This is easy.”

“You’re making a new battle suit!?”

Adam and Lena were delighted when they accidentally came down the stairs and heard the story of Carrot and Maria. Carrot happily raises her hand.

“Oh! Lena! Adam! Aren’t you out of work?”

“Even though the party is going on a business trip to the south in the winter, they say it’s vacation until then. than that! Are you making a new battle suit? Will Lena do the same?”

Maria chuckled.

“of course. instead of providing labor. young people.”

“thank you. Maria.”

“Then I’ll tell Crank the ingredients.”

“thank you. Carrot.”

Carrot, who was staring at Lena, looked at Adam.

“Looks like you’ve softened a bit? Before, he was shivering like a puppy wet in the rain.”

“Only to those in the know. People who don’t know are still wary.”

After waving to the two of them, Carrot pulled the empty cart back to the studio. Ariete was still doing the sword dance that day.

“Aren’t you tired?”

“Heh, heh, heh, heh…! My body is stiff! It can’t go on like this!”

“No way, what’s wrong? Are you going out to catch monsters with that body?”

Ariete, who knelt down on one knee and leaned on her sword, gasping for breath, raised her head. It was a serious expression.

“As long as I can move my body again! I want to return the favor!”

Carrot took Ariete to Crank. Ariete repeated the same words.

“I want to return the favor!”

Crank, who took Tuna and assembled the automaton together, stretches his back and turns the helmet.

“With that body?”

Ariete’s face heats up as if she’s about to cry. Crank added.

“Tell me honestly. As for me, I just want to live like a normal person. Serving at an inn, working at a guild reception, or doing something like that.”

“But I…!”

Carrot intervenes.

“I left 4 combat uniforms. I met Adam and Lena in the middle, and they asked if one more combat uniform would be added?”

“do. Let’s place an additional order for combat uniform materials.”

Ariete’s face brightened as she thought about something.

“Is my combat uniform with you?”

Crank turns his head.

“okay. I ordered it in advance because I thought I would need it if I wanted to cut it.”

“thanks!”

Ariete jumped off and hugged Crank. It was too wide, so I couldn’t wrap my arms around it,

Tuna was shocked to see that, but Crank patted Ariete on the back with a steely face.

“Don’t snuggle up with anyone. It’s a bad habit.”

“No one hugs me. It’s because of you guys. Didn’t I say we were a family?”

“Surely it was.”

Crank turned to the workbench and said.

“Because the reaction of the body comes through Zion, the reaction speed is slower than that of ordinary people. make up for that And make sure you can handle other weapons besides the sword. It helps in emergencies.”

“i get it!”

Ariete hurriedly ran out. Crank looked at Carrot and said.

“Take care of me for a second.”

“and! really? hehehe!”

Carrot, dressed in children’s clothes, put on combat boots and gloves and went outside. And he clapped his hands.

“Shall we dance a song? Lady.”

Ariete put her sword in front of her face with a happy expression when she saw Carrot.

“i look forward to.”

Argon 1st Security Commander’s Office,

Sitting in front of a large desk with a large window in the background, Celine continued to work on the wide desk, reviewing the piled up paperwork, stamping, and submitting documents.

“Yes, this is not work. It’s work.”

“Why are you doing that again?”

“It’s just like that these days. Is it because the days are getting colder? It’s cold, my heart.”

He had a sullen face, but those big eyes read and stamped documents faster than anyone else.

bang-!

Her eyes stopped as she read the next document.

“What’s this? A budget for the introduction of guard dogs? Did you have an agenda like this?”

An aide who had a personal desk in the office heard that and quickly rummaged through the documents he had and then stood up.

“This is an agenda from a meeting about a week ago. It was suggested by the commander of the 3rd Guards.”

“Companion, at that time, I said to do the test first, but why did the budget bill come up to the final payment?”

“That, well.”

The captain of the guard Celine, who had reached out to pick up the next item, opened her mouth.

“Aide, coffee.”

“yes!”

The aide, who was grasping something, ran quickly to the kitchen.

“I hate office romance.”

Celine, muttering in a small voice, is looking over the agenda and stamping, when she hears a knock.

smart-!

The door opened and a guard came in and saluted.

“Adventurer Mr. Romani has come to visit.”

“why?”

“I came to report on the investigation regarding the remnants of the Black Mage.”

“Please come in. aide! two cups of coffee!”

A voice is heard from the bathroom.

“yes!”

Romani, guided by the guards, took off his hat and said hello.

“Meet the captain of the 1st Guard Argon.”

“Welcome. Romani, have a seat.”

Standing up from behind the stack of papers, Captain Celine walks over to the sofa and sits down in front of Romani.

“Ugh…! Let’s get some rest…!”

“Are you having a hard time?”

Celine, who was slumped on the sofa and looking up at the ceiling, spoke in that position.

“…If you go through the agenda all day and stamp it, you will become just like me.”

“I brought you coffee.”

Coffee cups are placed in front of Celine and Romani. Celine gestured.

“Let’s rest for a while, the aide goes and tells the aide to come over for a while.”

“yep!”

Celine, who had been glaring at the back of the aide as she saluted and exited the office, leaned down and looked at Romani with her elbow on her knee.

“so? How are you?”

Romani, who had been looking at her coffee cup prior to the report, raised her gaze and opened her eyes wide. Then, his face suddenly brightened.

“Have you cut your hair, Captain? It’s a look I’ve never seen before. It suits you very well.”

The head of the guard, Celine, pouting her lips, said after tidying up her bobbed hair.

“No, well, it just happened that way.”

“What kind of wind is blowing?”

“What is the wind, just report what you have prepared.”

Romani, who had been smiling brightly, turned serious and started reporting. After listening to the story for a while, the guard captain raised a cup of coffee with an expression that his head hurt.

“Kheuha-!”

“How do you drink coffee?”

“I can’t drink during work, so I have to imitate it. sh*t, should we build a subjugation party once more?”

Romani, who took a sip of coffee from his cup, said with the mug in his hand.

“It’s not a guild-sized group like the last time, so would you even need a subjugation party? If you allow me, I’ll take a few adventurers’ parties and take care of it.”

“It’s not just one or two places. Even the adventurers were all preparing to go on a business trip to the south. Can you save someone in the midst of this?”

“It’s a business trip to the south, so it doesn’t matter if it’s late, right? There are quite a few parties and people to keep an eye on. Let me talk.”

After thinking for a moment, she nodded.

“all right. I’ll have a talk with the lord. When the budget and the final plan are decided, then proceed.”

“All right.”

He finished talking, but Romani didn’t get up right away. I have some coffee left

“Today, the captain of the guard has a special eye on him. I guess it’s because I like the shape of my hair.”

“Poop! Cough Cough…!”
