Time flies, and two days pass. The waterway is finally completed and the reservoir begins to fill with water.
It is now the ninth day of construction of the Dimension City.
In addition to the completion of the waterway, there have been some changes in life.
The first thing to bear the brunt is the change in food.
Many leafy vegetables and fruits are ripe, enriching the table.
In terms of condiments, the most basic ginger and garlic are also available, which greatly improves the deliciousness of the food.
Then there are Kuro and the others.
It can only be said that it is worthy of being a world-famous monster. Yuki was able to get up and do normal activities the next day, either with Kuro, following Takumi, or patrolling everywhere.
The four little guys also came outside today, curiously exploring around with little staggering steps.
So in Dimension City, you can see these cute little briquettes from time to time.
And Takumi also gave them names.
However, it is different from the original work. From eldest to youngest, according to Kuro's name, they are Kuroichirou, Kurojirou, Kurosaburou, and Kuroshirou.
Does it look like an ancient Japanese name?
In fact, this comes from ancient Chinese style!
Wu Dalang and the brothers of the Yang family are also in the same pattern.
Moreover, in ancient times, the Chinese used to call their mothers the name of their children.
As long as there are plural numbers, they are also in the same order. Japan just copied them later.
Back to business.
After the waterway was completed, Takumi did not have any time to spare and began to prepare to build a storage room with Tomoko.
After the construction is completed, a grain drying field will be opened.
The harvest is getting closer and closer, and we must prepare as soon as possible.
Just as he and Tomoko were planning the design, Takumi suddenly received a prompt from the system.
"Ding dong! You have new visitors arriving, please go and receive them."
After receiving the prompt, Takumi asked Tomoko to be busy first and hurriedly walked towards the Dimensional Gate.
"Ouch! Ouch!"
"Wow! Why are there still monsters?"
Before he could get closer, he heard such a sound. Takumi quickly shouted: "Wait! Kuro! Yuki! Do not be impulsive!"
I quickly rushed over and saw a familiar figure.
It was Hestia.
Not just her, but there was also a red-haired woman with an eyepatch next to her.
"Hi Takumi, here I am again."
Seeing Takumi appear, Hestia was no longer wary of Kuro and Yuki, and greeted Takumi energetically.
"Welcome, Hestia, I'm sorry, Kuro and the others didn't scare you, did they?"
Takumi stepped forward to comfort Kuro and Yuki, while smiling and welcoming Hestia and the others. He made a mistake. He should have told Kuro and the others about the Dimensional Gate earlier.
"No, no, just a little surprised."
"It would be great."
"By the way, let me introduce you, this is my good friend..."
Before Hestia could finish speaking, Takumi rushed to answer: "I know."
He then came forward and held the red-haired woman's hand enthusiastically.
"Welcome to the Dimension City, Goddess Hephaestus, a forging god like you could not be more welcome."
"Thanks."
Hephaestus was a little unaccustomed to Takumi's enthusiasm, but after all, she didn't want to hit the smiling man, so she still said politely: "Hestia, I thanked you for taking care of me earlier."
"So when I came here this time, not only did I want to see the so-called Dimension City, but I also came here to express my gratitude."
As she said that, she took the box that had just been placed on the ground, opened it and showed the contents inside.
"Because I know you are not short of weapons and tools, I only selected some daily necessities."
There are several things in the box.
A pair of crystal goblets, a bottle of wine, a set of exquisite silver cutlery, a box of high-end soap, and a box of tea.
"And mine, as I said last time, I will bring you good things."
Hestia also showed off her gift.
In fact, Takumi had roughly guessed what her gift was when he saw her carrying a big baggage.
"Clang! Soft mattress and quilt! And tons of new clothes!"
She picked these for a long time before choosing these as gifts based on Takumi's situation.
Although they didn't look as high-end as Hephaestus's gifts, they were exactly what Takumi was in short supply of, so Takumi was very happy.
"Thank you Hestia, you really helped me a lot. I was wondering how to get these things."
"Hehe, I knew you would like it, Takumi."
Seeing Takumi say this, Hestia couldn't help but feel a little proud, making Hephaestus helplessly shake her head.
After welcoming the two of them into the room, Takumi put the gifts away and used the tea leaves given by Hephaestus to make tea.
He had no choice but to do it. He really didn't have such a thing here, so he could only serve it like this.
But compared to the last time Hestia came, it was much better.
At least Takumi still cut a cantaloupe, washed some strawberries, blueberries and cherry tomatoes and made a fruit plate together.
"I thought you would come back in ten days and a half, but I didn't expect it to be so soon."
Now that I think about it, it has only been a week.
Hestia ate the fruit unceremoniously and said with a smile: "Because I don't have anything to do over there. After handling the trivial matters in the past two days, I will immediately be coming."
"Two days? Has it only been two days since you returned?"
Takumi immediately noticed the difference in time.
"Yes, what's the matter?"
"It's already the ninth day here, and seven days have passed since you went back."
"Well? Is that so?"
The three of them were all shocked.
"That's not right. Hestia stayed here for half a day before, and half a day passed after she returned."
Hephaestus discovered another problem.
"Maybe time will be synchronized after you come here. It should be the function of the Dimensional Gate, and after you leave, your time will flow at its own speed."
Hestia also accepted this statement, and then felt that there is something magical here.
"I said, how come it has only been two days and there are so many changes here? It turns out that the flow of time is different. A week has passed here."
Isn't that right? After Takumi slowly polished the outside of the house, it looks much better. The inside has also been dusted, and the ceiling and walls have become pure white, which is bright and bright during the day. The crops in the fields outside were all almost grown, green and no longer the original black soil.
There was also a pool and some new buildings.
Then, out of Hestia's curiosity, Takumi also took the two of them to visit the "Dimension City", by the way, I introduced Tomoko, Kuro, Yuki, and four cute little briquettes. The four cuties immediately attracted Hestia's interest, and she couldn't put it down.
Hephaestus was very interested in the new smelting workshop, which had a different style from Orario's, so she pulled Takumi and insisted on letting him demonstrate it in practice.
Takumi also happened to have an experiment to do, so he went along with Hephaestus' intention.
