Automatic Doll Automaton

Harrison grinned and left the tent.

When the expedition leader and the elven elder came out of the conference room, the people who were hanging around gathered around them. And when I told them what was decided, everyone nodded in agreement.

He also freed the Trogen adventurers who had been tied up in the meantime. He growled at the elves, but was silenced by Mori Expedition Leader’s bluff, accompanied by a hard-skin automaton.

“Anyway, now that it’s like that, if you don’t behave, you’ll all be buried in this mountain.”

“yep!”

Then the search began. The expedition was divided into several teams and dug into the bottom of the dragon rare to collect by-products such as scales, bones, and claws, or went inside the bronze door to explore the interior.

“Are there any orcs inside?”

“When we came, no one was there. The orc settlement was already burnt.”

“Did they all run away?”

After answering Carrot’s question, the elf woman crouched down on the floor and stared at Carrot.

“I’ve seen automaton a few times, but I’ve never seen anyone with as flexible thinking and conversational skills as you. Who made you?”

“huh? A~! It’s because my sister doesn’t watch a lot of custom automatons. As long as I have money, I am nothing.”

What about elven women? He tilted his head with a look. Then Harrison called Carrot.

“Carrot!”

“Uh, call me. I’ll go.”

“My name is Trista.”

“okay! Elf Tristar! I will not forget!”

Whoa!

A cool and refreshing wind blows. The people who came out of the gate of the hill had the illusion that they had come to another world because of the exotic scenery and atmosphere that unfolded in front of them.

said Harrison.

“Divide in half. The Maine Coon and Trogen Expeditions search for by-products around the outer rare and the surroundings, and the Argon and Trail Expeditions go south and north to explore and return 3 hours later.”

They set off soon. The Argon Expedition searched in the forest for three hours, but nothing was different.

Harrison, looking up at the sky, called the ghetto.

“Is that the sun?”

“Yes, that’s right. It’s about noon.”

Nodding her head, she called the wizards together.

“Being the smartest, he must have become a wizard. What do you guys think?”

The wizards grinned and each said a word.

“I saw a butterfly and a squirrel on the way.”

“I see a lot of broad-leaved trees in this area. It seems to be mostly a warm area.”

“It would be nice if it was night. You can recognize the constellations.”

Harrison clapped her palms and hugged the sorceress who told her about the constellations.

“good idea!”

“But strangely, there are no monsters.”

“I see. Perhaps those orcs have fled inward?”

“It must have been better than outside where large monsters are roaming around.”

Everyone nodded. Harrison thought for a moment.

“Anyone who can use search magic?”

One of the wizards memorized a spell, and after a while, he opened his eyes.

“There is no sign of a human within three kilometers around here. I see some animals. There really isn’t a single monster.”

“How many more times can I use that?”

“You can use it twice more.”

Harrison nodded and ordered to return.

“It’s time. Life is more important than adventure.”

When I returned to the burnt Orc village, the Trail Expedition, which had been exploring the other side, had also returned.

“how is it?”

“There was an ocean.”

“ok? ocean!?”

“Yes, surprisingly.”

“There was nothing on our side. There is only a forest of chattering.”

Jiaren narrowed her eyes.

“Doesn’t it look like a completely different world?”

“My wizard said that you can find out the location by looking at the constellations at night.”

“Oh my goodness! That’s a great idea.”

said Harrison, who was looking around.

“What about the bald man?”

“Dragon scales have begun to be excavated from the outside rare floor. You said you could return some people there?”

“good. Hey guys! Let’s go shoveling before we eat! I should bring a present when I go back!”

“yes!”

When we went outside, all the men, including Mori, threw off their shirts and were busy shoveling.

“It’s the first time I’ve ever had such an exciting shovel!”

“Mori! how is it!”

“I’m busy right now, don’t tell me! Thoroughly dig around here! Move the mined dragon scale over there! Divide evenly in all four cities! Dig, dig, dig again!”

“yes!”

People’s eyes turned upside down as by-products, including dragon scale, were constantly pouring out. To the extent that the elves passing by had expressions mixed with disgust,

Three days later, the elves of the Black Pine Tower, including Philim, learned how great human greed was. The men who made the dragon rare floor like an open-pit mine were still shoveling on the floor.

I had already given up on things like internal exploration.

“Your friends are all frighteningly honest.”

Elves belonging to the expedition covered their faces with both hands and did not know what to do.

“Ah, no, they are usually nice people, ah…! I can’t raise my head to the elder.”

Since it was said by a high-eyed and demanding elf, the elder just smiled and nodded.

“How are you?”

“ok?”

Mori, who was shoveling on the floor, looked up.

“I think I came down about 5 meters, but there isn’t much from here.”

“You’ve been mining a lot for three days.”

Where I turned my head, people with quick hands were sitting and tying the dug out dragon scales.

“I want to dig for two more days and sort it out.”

“Will you?”

Mori said while looking at the shoveling people and the automatons.

“Because I seem to have dug everything around here. The kids are a bit tired too.”

“Can’t you just make the automaton do it?”

Mori, with the shovel slung over her shoulder, smiled, showing her teeth.

“Right now, maintaining our relationship is a situation where we rely heavily on the power of the automaton, so we can’t just use it.”

Filim, who straightened his back, also smiled. The people around them who were watching the two of them whispered.

“Wow, doesn’t it look like a serpent and a raccoon talking?”

“Captain Mori is also great. How can you accept that?”

Two days later, excavation work was completed and distribution was completed. The Bronze Door came out with four hard-skin automatons stuck to it, but surprisingly it worked even when the location was moved.

“In case you don’t know, let’s experiment between the comebacks.”

Evacuation work has begun. It took more than a day to move all the excavated materials down the mountain.

“Can’t we ask them to load them into their aerial battleships?”

“Arthur. We decided not to interfere with each other, so that’s it. What would you do if you just loaded everything up and ran away?”

“Ah, could an elf do that?”

An elf man passing by gave them a subtle smile at their gaze.

“There is nothing more terrifying than stereotypes.”

People made puzzled faces.

When the people standing in front of the bronze door that had finally been brought down the mountain opened the door, the peaceful scenery was revealed.

“So, how was the constellation?”

“It was like this one. It’s not a completely different world, but it seems to be connected to somewhere on another continent. And if we keep going like this, we can always check again.”

Everyone nodded.

Jiaren said.

“Come to think of it, I didn’t even say hello to the elder of the Black Pine Tower.”

“What are you going to do now?”

Following Harrison who opened the bronze door and went inside, Jiaren, who couldn’t hide his surprise, and Mori, who looked disapproving, followed.

“We are going.”

As if he had been waiting, the elder Elf Philim, who was relaxing on the hill inside the Bronze Gate, turned his head.

“It was a short meeting, but I don’t want to see it again.”

The three expedition leaders smiled in various ways.

“There will be a lot of people coming here from now on.”

“You know. We will do ours, so you guys do yours too.”

After greeting each other, the captains left the door and got into each other’s wagons. Before that, Jiaren didn’t forget to tell the Trogen Expedition.

“Please tell the Trogen Guild leader that I will be looking for you soon.”

Carriages loaded with luggage started returning along the way they came.

The elves who were watching him from the aerial battleship said one word at a time.

“I wish we had automatons too.”

“The council of elders won’t approve? It means that we cannot repeat the mistakes of the past.”

“I know that. Because a while ago I was like that too. But still!”

“I also hope that the introduction of automatons will be permitted now.”

“Elder!”

Philim, who had entered the boat before he knew it, put his hands behind his back and looked down at the wagons crawling on the plain like ants.

“The car built by that little automaton called Carrot was pretty good.”

Philim turned his head and said.

“The camouflage was successful. They don’t know much about the inside yet.”

“But bringing humans in there will be a big threat in the future.”

“I had to prevent this ship from being in danger. Once it is analyzed, it can be processed as much as possible. How far have you been?”

The elf, who was watching the progress of the modernized ship with a hologram floating in the air, said.

“It will be completed in about three days.”

Pilim, with his hands behind his back, smiled happily.

“After the analysis is over, open only up to the distance they searched and limit the rest. Let the dragon misunderstand it as a sub-space that it created out of boredom.”

“All right.”

“And who can make tea?”

An elf woman raised her hand.

“I have hibiscus leaf tea, would you like some?”

“Okay, bring me some. That little automaton has created strange symbols.”

The elves gathered at the elder’s words stopped laughing.

The expedition team has returned. And the village had a festival. People cheered as if it were their own work and welcomed the returning expedition members.

The dragon scales full of wagons and the giant bronze gates, which are heavy enough to make the by-products and wheels sink down, presented a refreshing feeling with the taste of adventure after a long time to people’s peaceful daily lives.

“It will be a snack for a week.”

The person who had been looking out the noisy window turned his head. The lord of Argon, Deo Argon, smiled happily and turned his head. It was an impressive face with a beard the same color as the blonde hair.

“You worked hard.”

“thank you. Lord.”

The people gathered in the drawing room bowed their heads to show their respect. Lord Deo Argon smiled warmly and continued.

“Personally, I would like to treat you to a full course meal in the hall, but I know that there are many people who find it difficult for me, so I will send you a special meal to the guild. Harrison.”

“Oh, why are you looking at me and talking?”

“I heard from your wife that you are very uncomfortable with meals in the lord’s hall.”

Harrison said, snoring.

“You are a talkative countess.”

The laughing lord opened his arms and congratulated the adventurers who returned from the expedition.

“Thank you for coming back alive. The treasures you bring will enrich the citizens of Argon. Of course, appropriate compensation will be given to all of you. thank you Thank you for your effort.”

Everyone was so happy that their mouths were torn up to the bottom of their ears, but they didn’t cheer. Apparently, since it was a manor house, they were trying to save face.

The guild leader greeted them as a representative, and the adventurers turned away from the lord’s mansion, which was frugal but full of nobles.

“and! Is this the lord’s mansion?”

“I’ve lived in this town for over 10 years, but come here for the first time!”

“me too! My older sister works as a maid, but this is my first time coming! Ohhh! It’s booty!”

On the way back after coming to the manor’s mansion, where only adventurers who have accomplished feats can come and receive congratulations from the highest lord in the village, the adventurers look around the mansion relaxed and head to the carriage built in the yard, Harrison said. .

“huh? Where are you guys going?”

“uh? Aren’t you going home now?”

“no. Follow Harrison. You guys have a tea time with the count family members from now on.”

“Titty tea time!”
