On May 24, Jin was at the construction site of the in Shoro.

"Much progress has been made, hasn't it?"

"Yes, thanks to the power-assisted reinforced exterior for civil engineering and construction.

The foundation had already been laid and the construction of the upper structure had begun.

"We can carry heavy stones and the work is much more efficient.

The Berlich workshop is doing a good job," said the site manager, Gladin Harnad von Isteer, head of the technical department of the Ministry of Magic and Technology.

Gladin, 32 years old this year, is a mid-level technician who was chosen for the position because of his enthusiasm.

"Mr. Jin insisted that I build this memorial. When it is completed, it will be of great use to future generations!

"I hope so."

Jin replies and watches the work in progress.

<> was performing its job well and making the work more efficient.

"So, have you encountered any difficulties or problems?　Including budgetary concerns?

He asked, "No, not at the moment,

He replied, "No, everything is going well so far. The building will be completed by the end of next month ......6 and we will be able to continue working on the interior."

"That's great to hear."

Jin was relieved to hear that everything was fine.

He knew that there were no major problems since the old man had been monitoring the building with his "peepers," but to hear it from the mouth of a person on the site was a different kind of relief.

After several reports and meetings, Jin left Shoro for the time being.

On May 25, Jin was in the Kingdom of Franz.

He was there to check the construction status of the circuit.

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

The circuit was almost completed.

"Yes, it is. "Yes, but the surface is not finished yet.

replied Minister of Magic Yonas Tigrina.

Basically, they are going to do the so-called with crushed stones.

"That has its advantages," he said.

With asphalt pavement, it is difficult to make partial repairs, and it is easy to have bumps.

This is not the case with crushed stone pavement.

(It would be slightly more on-road than dirt. ......)

Jin thought that the pavement was not so easy to repair. Jin himself has never seen a car race on such a surface.

Conversely, this would be the standard because there was nothing to compare it to.

"However, please make sure that the road surface is well prepared.

"I've already done that."

The magician nodded.

"Once that's done, we'll need to build the accompanying facilities, such as seating, restrooms, medical offices, and stores.

Jin was looking forward to it.

"That's right. I'd like to finish it before summer.

Even in this world, it is customary to take a vacation in the middle of summer.

If we can do the event then, it will bring in some box-office revenue.

"We'll have a sample car ready in June," Jin assured him.

Jin assures him,

"Oh, that's exciting!

smiled Jonas Tigrina, the Minister of Magic.

"I am relieved that the construction is going well."

On the back to Horai Island, Jin contacted the old man.

<

"Indeed."

Then Reiko came in with the tea.

"Here you are, father."

"Oh, thank you."

Reiko asks Jin who drinks the tea and relaxes on the seat.

Reiko asks him, "Why didn't you use the warp gate this time?"

Because Jin usually returns to Horai Island through the warp gate.

"Yes, because it takes about 2 hours to return from Franz Kingdom. I'm not in such a hurry."

I need some time to gather my thoughts, Jin said.

"The idea ...... is that what you were consulted about the other day by Elsa-sama?"

"Yes, yes."

The other day, when she returned from <>, she said that she wanted to do something about the absolute shortage of healers in the world today.

"We could just make healing automata and dispatch them all over the world, but I'm not sure if that's really the right thing to do. ......"

Too easy, Jin thought.

"It would be a bit suspicious if a healer who had never existed before suddenly came in and said, <>. ......

"I understand that, but ......"

Then the old man also came to offer his opinion.

<> that we are currently training in <> become full-fledged professionals, it is still not enough>>.

"That's right. ......"

<

"Well, would you like to do that at ......?"

Jin decided to adopt the old man's idea and asked him how long the shortage would last.

to become full-fledged professionals. It takes 5 years for them to mentor their successors and make them a decent person. And if they are ......, it will take 3 generations.

"I see. So what would it take?"

<<<12 to 15 years. That's still a little short of what I thought it would take.

Jin was a little surprised that it was longer than he had expected.

"But there are also private healers and court-appointed healers in various countries, aren't there?

"I see. ......"

Then, it makes sense to create a certain number of automata.

"Can we have those also educate their disciples?"

<

"Well, ...... does that include reorganizing public health?"

Jin's shoulders slumped as he realized that the damage caused by the was much greater than he had expected.

When Jin visited some cities, he found that most of the public bathhouses, not to mention toilets, had disappeared.

"I heard that many of them were demolished because of the high maintenance costs?"

That is another item that disappoints Jin.

"Heating tools are expensive? ......"

Jin had rather thought that it was a relatively inexpensive magic tool to make.

<<>.

"Right. ......"

Jin realized once again that he was not going to be able to retire in Hale yet.
