Chapter 18: Working Group: Ground Sand Miner
With the orc left the place, Kuso observed her only one pike remaining with herself, stated.
"Alright, I have to keep myself one just in case."
And then, the goddess looked at Reili, and he asked her.
"Can you help me to observe the miner? Make sure that both of them are safe."
The fairy replied as her dog ear twitched in a sign of understanding. The goddess knew that she understood her instruction. To know that she was understood her instruction, the goddess continued,
"You can use magic, can you?"
"Yes, I can."
The goddess was pausing for a while to think if science was possible in the world where she was reincarnated to. She questioned Reili.
"Can water soften the ground?"
"I'm not a water magician, Kuso. But I could use some of the water magic and let me try it out."
"Sure." The goddess replied Reili as she walked to the hole where the goddess had once dug it without knowing for herself.
Reili placed her clover end shaped staff. And she commanded,
"Water flow!"
With her magical command being sounded from her mouth, a small amount of water had been spilled from her staff with the speed of tap water. And it was filling the hole until the water covered the hole.
When the water was filling the hole to the fullness, the goddess walked towards the hole as she observed the water level after the magic was initiated.
She placed her left thumb finger to the corner side of the hole and pricked it with the fairy, questioned her out of curiosity.
"Why do you do it? Kuso?"
Kuso answered her question by saying.
"I want to try if the water could soften the layer of the ground, so the gathering work would not take a longer time. And it works!"
She was rejoiced to see that it was working. And it led her to call the orc from the right earlier.
"Dude, come here."
The orc comes towards her as he asked.
"Yes, lady Technoknight?"
"Now, find somewhere that has a brown colored ground, and dig it. Reili will help you if you have a hard time digging it. drown the ground with the water, and the digging process will be faster without ruining the sand quality."
Feeling enlighten, the orc replied to her.
"Oh? I never see this technique before."
As he stated it, he squatted to near the hole, and then. He did the same with the goddess to take the sand sample. And then, when he acquired the sample. He tried to sense the sand's quality by grinding it across his fingers. With himself stated,
"No, lady. This is not downgrading. But it's upgrading the sand quality instead!"
Rejoiced, the goddess replied to him.
"Really? I thought that it was only working with concrete. But, you have given me more insights into this! Nice, nice."
"I should thank you instead, lady Technoknight. This groundwater mixing* had advanced this world's concrete building to a new level. How many sands you need with this mixing method, lady Technoknight?" The orc questioned her after he was confirmed that the mixing technique could speed his digging speed and even improve the ground and quality. The goddess answered.
"Around three-meter cubics. Do you understand that?" The goddess questioned the orc for that metric standard calculation, with the orc replied.
"Understand, it is as wide as the quarter size of that cathedral and as tall as the quarter height of the tower from the cathedral. Do you need to deliver the sands to a certain place?"
The goddess paused for a while with his statement, and she asked the orc.
"Do you need helpers for it?"
"Two of orcs like me will be sufficient." The orc replied to him with the goddess nodded. And she commanded her system to build two sand carts made by carbon, and three pikes made by carbon with the goddess asked the man of two randomly for helping for the delivering the sands to the place where she stood, which was near the hole and ten-step at the front of the cathedral.
When two of them had come, the goddess stated to three of them as three of them regrouped in the horizontal order, and she started as she pointed the man on the right who she tasked for digging the sand ground.
"You will dig the sand ground. Are five hours enough for you to gather those?"
"More than enough, lady Techoknight." The orc replied in an optimistic tone, and the goddess replied to him.
"Great! Now, you will have two assistants for you to help. And Reili will help you with sand water mix if you have a hard time to dig it."
"Roger!" Three of them, with Reili, who joined the gang, had responded in the same tone and the same words as well.
With three of them with Reili had left, the goddess looked at the other four men and three women remaining. With the current formation, the goddess paused as she tried to think if anything could work for four of them since the carpenter's job would not be needed by those much.
"Corona, can you use my body for hunting?" The goddess questioned the petite god who just walked close to her. The man stated to her,
"This body is pretty flexible so that I could do that. how many resources you need?"
"A pair of boars should be enough," Kuso replied to him, with the petite god replied.
"Easy."
"Great!" She patted her own old body, and then, she tasked the women, which are all elves, as she stated.
"Two of you, try to find any fresh vegetables that edible near here..."
And she pointed to the right elf who had silver hair to show her own uniqueness, and she instructed.
"You will go with me to cook. Can you cook?"
"Not sure, but if lady Techoknight wants to, I will try." The elf replied to him.
"Great! Now... Four men... How do I manage..."
