After escorting the furniture workshop Diaco back, the city of Ibro is busy preparing for the New Year.

In this world, the holidays around the spring and autumn equinoxes are longer and more spectacular, but since it is the beginning of the new year, there are 10 days off at the end of the year and the beginning of the year.

Diako, the owner of the furniture workshop, and Borzi Borzi, the owner of the furniture workshop, gave her a good evaluation.

Naturally, he protected the carriage from bandits and killer bees, and also stopped the kidnappers.

Since Shure and I are complaining about the lack of strength, it seems that next time the entire tank will receive a request.

The option award was also paid in full, and Shure and I felt warm in our pockets.

It seems that the tank will also be suspended for 10 days during the year-end and New Year's Day holidays.

"I'm going to take advantage of this break to clean up my personal affairs."

The first thing I wanted to solve was my brother Fox's problem.

While I was escorting the furniture workshop, my brother steadily practiced earth magic.

Pulling weeds, leveling and hardening surfaces from the base forecourt is a steady job, but my brother works silently day in and day out.

However, due to her low catkins mana index, the range of her one-time casts is very narrow, and it is difficult to cast magic continuously.

"So, I'll go to the market and buy ginger."

If I was looking for it, it would probably be in the kitchen of the base, but it was a hassle to ask all kinds of questions, so I bought it myself.

"Big brother, I'm sorry for being so sudden, but let's go out for a while tomorrow."

"Are you going? Where to go? I've just returned to Hot Incense. ”

"Yes, because I want to show you around the quarry."

"Is that so?

"yes, I'll probably need it when my brother starts business."

"Alright, please don't ask."

Perhaps he had become accustomed to life at the base, and he felt that he was no longer nervous, and his personality seemed to have calmed down.

His nutritional status has improved and he bathes every day, so his fur has also become shiny.

"It's not as shiny, fluffy as my shiny, fluffy fur, but I think Shure will be happy with it."

"It's cold, let my brother act as a hot water bottle."

"Of course, I'm going to curl up in the futon as much as I want."

I complained about Atsuka's family, but the magical power of the futon was irresistible.

Early the next morning, my brother and I headed to Ibrosimen.

The pottery workshop was also closed, so only the west gate was guarded before it opened.

While I was waiting to open the door, the guards who had too much free time spoke to me.

"I guess it's rare for two cat people to be together."

"Good morning, are you home?"

"No, I'd like to go to the earth mines."

"Hou, do you have anything to do with the pottery workshop?"

"No, that's not right..."

I think it's better for my brother to start a new job in the future, so I think it's better to get some high-quality soil I said this, and the guard nodded again and again.

My brother was next to me when I was talking to the doorman, but he was nervous and kept a straight face just to answer "yes" or "no".

He was able to converse normally with members of the tank, but he was still not good at talking to people he didn't know.

"If you want to start a business, you have to improve this area."

The gate opened, and my brother and I walked towards the mine.

I walked until I saw the gate, and when the road turned and Ichiro disappeared out of sight, I had my dirt bike ready.

"Big brother, you can't see it, but there's a car here."

"A car? Unya: What is this? ”

"I'll ride first, you ride later. Ah, put on my backpack. ”

"Oh, this, this?"

"There's a table there to put your feet on"

"Oh, that's it."

"Then I'll go, you hold on."

"Oh, oh"

I slowly started the buggy and stretched the saddle so my brother could ride it.

"It's the first time for two people to ride in such a car, let's drive safely first."

"Ahem, ahem, ahem"

When the wind demon made a sharp sound and the buggy began to move, the elder brother let out a surprised sound.

"Meow, meow, it's moving."

"It's a tool for moving, so moving is a matter of course."

"Oh, that's funny."

"I'll speed it up a bit, you hold on a little bit."

"Oh, I see."

As the number of wind magic weapons increased, the sharp sound became louder and louder, and the speed increased significantly.

“Funyaaaaa！ Quick, quick, nyango, quick! ”

"Hahaha"

It takes about 2 hours to travel by pottery wagon and about 30 minutes by dirt bike.

"It was refreshing to ride a motorcycle for the first time in a long time, I thought my brother loved it, but"

"I thought I was going to die.

"Sorry, I thought you were having a lot of fun too, so you drove a little too fast, hehe."

"Heheno, my life has been shortened."

Although the elder brother complained, he was shocked when he saw the mining area.

"The shape of the mountain has changed."

"Brother, you come closer and see how the soil feels."

"Oh, I see"

Aniki wagged his tail happily and headed for the mine.

"If I can use the soil here, my brother should be able to do more."

"I've experienced it myself, but what makes me happy is that what I can do is increasing little by little."

When my brother arrived at the mine, he immediately began to knead the soil.

Digging out a small amount, he tried to make discs, as usual, leveling the ground and hardening, and trying something that I couldn't understand because of the nature of the sky.

"It's amazing, Hua Wuming. It's completely different from the soil in the front yard. It's delicate, viscous, and when magical power passes through it, it hardens magically, magically! ”

In my opinion, since it was jointly developed by a pottery workshop, the soil quality seems to be completely different.

For about 30 minutes, while I was watching my brother dig the dirt, a customer who had been waiting for me appeared.

"Gigi"

About ten goblins gathered at the ancient doorway, making a squeaking roar.

"Nia, Hua Wuming! Behind! Behind! ”

"yes, yes, I know, I know, so it's okay"

"It's okay..."

Since we arrived at the mine, detection points have been scattered all over the place.

"The reason I didn't bring a hoop to ward off the monsters was to lure them in."

About twenty meters away from us, the goblins brazenly scattered and surrounded us.

It seems that the slightly larger individual in the middle is the boss of the herd.

"Niya, Hua Wuming"

"It's okay, you stay behind me"

"I understand"

When he stopped messing with the soil, he ran to me and hugged me.

"Yes, this kind of thing is more suitable for cute girls."

"Oh, big brother, your hands are full of mud."

"Gippy!"

Suddenly, the team's big brother, Brin, screamed, his whole body stiffened.

I set up a powerful thunderbolt magic circle where the boss advanced.

Recorder

"Gygia!"

When the goblins were confused by the sudden fall of the boss, I sprayed the goblins with a burner and they ran away screaming.

Then threaten them with the sound of a shattering explosion of the magic circle and drive them away.

"Big brother, let's go."

"Moving, where?"

"The Upper Reaches of That River"

I restrained the fallen goblin boss with an empty rope and made a cart and took my brother with me.

The younger brother grew up in the country, but it was the first time he had seen a goblin so closely, so he clung to the handrails he had made in the car and wanted to stay as far away as possible.

We used celestial magic to carve out a route through the forest and descend to the riverbank.

"We descended slowly, pulled some distance, and should be able to get out of the mine."

"Hua Wuming, what are you going to do?"

"I'm going to make my brother eat this goblin's heart."

"Eh, eh! You, why are you doing this?"

"My mana will go up."

"Uh, could it be you?"

"yes, I ate it too. But it's dangerous. ”

Next to the goblin boss who was rolled into the riverbed, I urged my brother to get ready.

"W-How dangerous?"

"Since the amount of mana circulating in my body is increasing rapidly, I have to continue to use it."

"Does that mean you have to keep using your magic until it's gone?"

"Yes, if you're an older brother, try to do something you can't do with normal mana, like build a huge earthen wall or harden it into a tight structure."

"Wow, I see. I'll do it, I'll eat it. ”

The elder brother made up his mind, so when he tried to remove the heart, the goblin boss came back to life and began to wreak havoc.

"Guys! Gippy! ”

It was so noisy that I gave it electricity a second time and stuck my head in the river to stop it.

Cut open the box and remove the heart and the organ containing the magic stone.

"You're alright"

"If you can't do that, you can't be an adventurer."

"I think so, but"

The heart was cleaned with water and cut into thin slices using a magic weapon made of heavenly magic.

Luckily, the goblin doesn't seem to have parasites either.

After slicing the heart, grate the ginger that you bring with you.

"Goblin Creation is complete."

"Come on, enjoy."

"Are you okay?"

"Maybe"

"Maybe it's disgusting already!"

A goblin's heart was wrapped in a thin slice of ginger, which he threw into his mouth.

"Meow meow unya? Isn't that cool? ”

"Come on, there's more."

"yes, yes, it's good, it's goo"

"Brother, use magic, magic!"

"Woo woo woo ya!"

The older brother, who suddenly began to suffer, put his hand on the riverbed and cast a spell, and a wall about 2 meters high and 3 meters wide bulged.

"The size of this wall is something my brother would never have been able to do."

"Meow, meow, your body has magic"

"I see, I see, then use magic! Then, let's eat! "

"Ahhh

After that, I asked him to eat and use it again and again until he was tired.

"Maybe that will solve the problem of lack of mana."
