"Here, thus ......"

<, Marikka was making automata.

She works for , who manages the above-ground facilities on Onogoro Island.

<> was an elderly butler type, but the one she is making now is a lady-in-waiting type.

It is a secret only for Marikka that they are modeled after Lao Tzu and the five-colored golem-maid, respectively.

"It's done. ......"

Marikka sighs as she builds the first one.

"How is it?"

Just then Zion appeared.

"Oh, Mr. Zion. It's just finished.

"Heh. ...... this is it?　Wow, it's beautiful.

"Is it?　......I'm a little happy to hear you say so, Mr. Zion."

Zion gazed at the automata lying on the floor,

"Maricka has improved her skills, hasn't she?

Marikka is getting better," he said with deep emotion.

"Is that so?"

"Yes. I'm not flattering you. Compared to the time when I first met Jin,...... the year before,...... the year before last, you've come a long way."

"I can't believe it's been that long."

"It was a big deal back then. ......"

Sion looks a little distant. She went to the Laurent continent with her follower Lucas, and when she ran out of strength, she was rescued in the village of Kaina, where she met Jin.

After that, she rescued her captured sister Istaris and liberated all the clans through battles against the <>.

In the process, the former <> had its population further reduced due to the localized <> caused by the <>.

"Hey, now that we've made this livable, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have people live here if they want, right?"

"Oh, yes."

< who want to live here, there's no problem," Marikka said.

"We are on the Tropic of Cancer, so the climate is warmer here.

In case you were wondering, 12 young people under the age of 100 (or 20 in human terms) wanted to try living there, They got bored after a month or so and returned to their clans.

According to them, the situation is bleak and empty><<<>.

"Maybe it's difficult to change your living environment so suddenly," said Zion.

said Zion.

It seems that the northerners were more conservative than expected.

It may also be because of Jin that their living environment has been improved and they have become more comfortable.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

<>, <>, and <> were also doing their best.

They had recently received a basic course on Golem automata directly from Jin, together with Marikka.

"......Marikka, I'm having trouble here. ......"

"Oh, it will be easier if you do this first.

"I see, I understand."

"Hey, hey, what about here?

"There's a little trick to it. ......"

"Wow, you're good!"

"Excuse me, Marikka, can you show me this part?"

"Yes, that's the part, I think, in my own way, it would be easier to build it this way.

"Yes, that's true.

Marikka is guiding them well as a senior.

Zion looked at her with admiration.

* * * * * *

"Mr. Sion, is Rorona here?"

One day, Marikka came to Sion's house and said something like that.

Yes, she is here. ......Mom!　Marikka wants to see you."

Lorona came out of the back of the house and greeted Marikka with the same soft smile she always had.

"So, what's the matter today?"

"Yes. I'm doing some maintenance work on Onogoro Island, and something just occurred to me.

What does this have to do with me?

Lorona tilted her head.

"Well, sir, I'm thinking of building a field on <> that will be self-sufficient."

"Yes."

"We have plenty of land, so we're going to use some ...... of the crops we harvest, no, most of them here."

"Well, that's great!　It's going to make our food more plentiful."

The climate of the Nordic Federation is subarctic to frigid, while Onogoro Island is subtropical. Naturally, the suitable crops are different.

"So, I would like to ask for your guidance on how to cultivate the fields at ......."

Lorona knows a lot about agriculture. Or rather, she is the first person in charge.

"Okay. Leave it to me. Well, first we need to grow some rice."

Rice is originally a southern plant.

"Tea trees are also good."

In this case <...... the tea tree cannot be grown in cold regions, so all tea consumed in the Nordic Federation was imported.

"I want to grow natural rubber trees, Persica, Citran and other fruit trees..."

Lorona's vision grew and grew.

"Mother, let's ask Jin to help us with that.

"Yes, I'm sure he will help us.

Zion was convinced that Jin would definitely cooperate in this kind of future-oriented development.

* * * * * *

"If that's the case, I'll be happy to cooperate with you.

"Oh, thank you very much!"

Marikka chewed and thanked him.

"I'll add the know-how of cultivating such southern plants to ."

< is a golem specialized for agriculture that Jin made and gave to the northerners.

"Thank you, Jin-sama."

Rorona also thanked him.

"I think I saw some bamboo shoots on Onogoro Island when I was there before.

He had seen a plant that looked just like moso bamboo.

"Oh, yes, I'm sure I've seen it there.

"Well, I'm glad to hear that."

Jin explained how to eat them, thinking that bamboo shoots would also be a good product.

Thus, along with the development of <>, the Nordic Federation became richer.
