Caesar, a small golem for transportation made by Sophie, pulls a cart full of ironware and crops with ease.
It was not too slow, and although it was a prototype, it was perfect.
“Sophie, it’s amazing.”
“No. Up to this point, it’s a flat road and the tunnel that Miss Nina dug for us. The problem is what lies ahead.”
“Oh, right. The road is not well maintained and there are many obstacles.”
“Yes. I thought it would be completed only after clearing those obstacles.”
At the member selection meeting this morning, there was talk of having Lydia come and clear the path with stone pavings, but …… it was decided that the obstacles had to be removed first.
While I was remembering this, we arrived at the far end of the tunnel and used spirit magic to open the stone wall to the ground.
It was level ground for a while, but after that we entered an animal path in the grass and continued into the forest, so I wondered if it was time to test the true value of Caesar.
“Master. I’m about to use Caesar’s function, so could you please clear the way in front?”
“Okay. Now, what do we do from here …… Nn!? Sophie. What is Ceasar trying to do?”
“Please watch for a moment. Oh, and everyone please try to stay out of Ceasar’s way.”
As Sophie said, I stood a little away from Caesar and watched him, but suddenly he crouched down on the spot.
I was wondering if he was all right, when I noticed that Caesar, who was a humanoid golem, had turned into a lion before I knew it.
I see. I was wondering if he was going to change from bipedal walking to a quadrupedal walking and go on a bad road …… when he opened his mouth wide and the inside of it began to glow white.
I remember seeing this …… somewhere.
I had an intensely bad feeling about this and tried to stop it anyway, but…
“Magic Cannon …… Fire!”
With Sophie’s words, a large white light shot out from Caesar’s mouth.
“Master. Now the road to the Lizardmen village is flat and straight. It is a success.”
“No …… Yes. Well, it will be easier to transport, but what happened to the things on this straight line?”
“Yes. It turned to dust and disappeared. And since it consumed a lot of magic power, please supply me with magic power in the Lizardmen Village, as I had told you earlier.”
“…… Well, that’s all well and good. But you just unleashed that toward the direction of the Lizardmen village, didn’t you? Is the village alright?”
“Of course it is. I have calculated the power of the shot, so it should only reach the front of the village.”
Although I was quite anxious, Sophie said confidently, so …… we proceeded to the Lizardman village with a little haste…
“Mm …… Mr. Alex. Be careful. The village has been attacked by magic out of nowhere. We are still on the lookout.”
I saw the chief, Mr. Nooti, outside the village with a large group of lizardmen armed with the iron weapons we had brought earlier.
“Well, could that be a white light?”
“Yes. I did not see it directly, but according to witnesses, a large white light drowned out everything and disappeared. Fortunately, it was the trees in front of us and the village fence that disappeared, and no one was hurt ……”
Apparently, Caesar’s attack reached a part of the village.
Fortunately, no one was hurt, so we first apologized and explained the situation.
Then, since the fence was not at a level where it could be repaired …… we created a stone wall with spirit magic and apologized again.
“Hahaha. No, it’s fine now that we know it’s not a new monster. Besides, you made a wall that looks sturdier than the previous fence.”
“No, but it’s true that we gave you trouble. Let me make it up to you in some way next time.”
“No, don’t worry about it. Anyway, that’s the rest of the ironware, right? We have prepared some cloths here as well, so please come this way.”
For the time being, we managed to have Mr. Nooti forgive us, and tried to carry the cart into the village, but something was wrong with Sophie.

“What’s wrong, Sophie?”
“Ugh …… Master! I am very sorry! I’ll pay for it with my life!”
“You don’t have to! It’s true that we caused trouble for the Lizardmen, but fortunately no one was hurt. It’s all right, so calm down.”
“Master!”
Sophie, who always has a cool image, unusually hugged me with teary eyes, so I stroked her head for a while …… and when she calmed down, we moved to Mr. Nooti’s place.
…… Monica, who hugged me without reading the situation, I will lecture her later.
