Okay, I thought Alicia was just too paranoid about being discarded, but in the end it was totally justified, as they really did dismiss her.

The ojou girl really sucks at communicating her intentions to the poor maid.
Is that how you read that? Ojou has been super understanding and reasonable and for a noble she and her father are extremely fair(more so that is even reasonable for hired help) with her and she was super direct in saying and warned her to stop acting so hostile to her friends/guests and she continued to do so. She had every right to dismiss her for disobeying, the Maid literally brought it on herself a literal self-fulfilling prophecy. Also the fact it as a cliffhanger means we aren't actually done with the maid. I imagine the Lady has other plans for her then out right getting rid of her this comes off as more a wake up call for her to get her head on straight.

exactly. best looking character in the series by far and she gets sidelined or scrapped entirely lol
maybe she joins the mc for adventuring (full copium). just hope they give a reason for dismissing her that's not total bs.
I can imagien that her new job is to spy on MC and report back what he is doing

i mean, he literally reported that he wanted to do with the train. also, i got curious about what happens and the first two parts of chapter 32 are free on the publisher's website:
back in angelum he meets the duke as well as the adventurer's and crafts (?) guild masters alongside a new chick in a conference room. so there would be no need for her to spy on him.

Miyabi is being really silly with this project. He doesn't even know how to build the engine for the locomotive and he's aiming for a train? He should be working on a car instead; far less horsepower needed and can travel on the existing road infrastructure. It will also fulfil the intended purpose of enabling two adventurers to travel more quickly over the 600 km distance.

Beyond the myriad of issues that come with such a project (permission to build, maintenance cost, etc), it seems to me that it will attract attention to his skills and he may be "asked" to keep working on such projects to link up other cities because he'll be able to do it in a fraction of the cost and time that it would take otherwise. Changing the travel time from two weeks to 12 hours is pretty transformative for the economy and the military after all, so there's no way the nobility and royalty won't ask him to contribute further. Then again, there is apparently a guild of infrastructure and production that manages such matters, so he'll probably be shielded of such work by the guild taking on the requests to build that type of infrastructure.

Wind magic for a train is... rather silly.

The only real option for that is to design and build turbines that will use wind magic to spin the turbine that will then power the wheels? I don't really see any other way for a traditional land vehicle to travel via wind otherwise due to the issues with translating wind to rotational force. If the wind magic actually created air and not wind then you could use a piston engine that runs off of high-pressure tanks, similar to a steam engine just with the magic air tanks creating the high pressure needed to operate the pistons.

You could try and turn it into a giant pneumatic tube system via futurama but then you run into the hyperloop issue of properly sealing both ends...

In Expecting to Fall into Ruin, I Aim to Become a Blacksmith, protagonist had to make a bunch of prototypes of different designs working with other craftsmen when building a train. Hopefully, it isn't too easy here.

Here's the thing in my mind when i read this chapter, project with big schale like this usually need a lot of resources and money, and Miyabi as its pioner of this magic locomotive in this new world he really gonna be dumb if he's not gonna take some pattern and monetized it little bit....

Well that has an update schedule on it. :D

Will the subway have multiple stops? What about ventilation, water prevention, and emergency exits?
  • Multiple stops aspect would only be useful if there is any major town in-between the proposed route. I mean, this is going to be mostly a straight line underground route to reduce any lose of travel time, so it's unlikely there would be any major town right in between the route that easily. Though there is a possibility that they may propose building a new town as an intermediator/junction/hub at around mid-point of the route (if possible, depending on geographical location and proximity to nearest town).
  • MC's base design already uses Wind Magic as a propellant, so ventilation shouldn't be an issue.
  • Water prevention would depend on area of construction and elevation of the entrance and exit, and protection against rain water entry, and they are not something that Magic can't solve.
  • emergency exit would probably not be needed depending on how they are constructed (since they need to keep the route secure to not allow monsters easy access inside the tunnel), like separate lanes from incoming and outgoing with good size border in-between, proper speed control, etc, though emergency stop/rest areas might be needed in-between.

and here is where miyabi goes from eccentric to straight up stupid
dumbass this isn't a pet project scale anymore dumby
:aquadrink:
ah yes trains the invention that REVOLUTIONIZED HOW HUMANS BEHAVED, WORKED, AND THOUGHT. FUCKING BEOFRE TRAINS THE FASTEST WAY TO GET MESSAGES AROUND WAS BY HORSES AND FUCKJRIDJDBFUDJRJEJDD
THERE WAS NO NEED TO STANDARDIZE TIME BEFORE TRAINS, YKNOW THAT MODERN THING WE DONT THINK ABOUT
AHHHHHHHHHHH
tldr our boy stupid im gonna go chill, this is fluff manga after all :aquadrink:
it's like real life lol. time standardization only start after train.
because nobody travel so fast between city before train

like it's explained in the chapter car will not be effective especially with how rampant monster attack is. that's why he proposed train.

Oh c'mon it's only a 600 km underground megaproject that would take modern nations decades to complete IRL. You're overthinking it, it'll be a breeze.

Clearly an american ( tis I an american too)
in almost all aspects trains are just better. Especially when it comes to mass transportation. The reason why america is so goddamned car centric is cause of lobbying by large corporations owned by people like Ford who had an incentive for pushing their new fangled cars. Kind of fucked up that we are praising him for making the first affordable cars when in hindsight it kinda kneecapped our economic protentional by making less efficient use of space, time, and energy. but hey I'm just an amateur who picked up things here or there so what do I know. (yeah I know the assembly line was a neat innovation but it was bound to have been implemented at some point considering the simplicity of the concept) oh yeah jay walking wasn't a concept or a crime till y'know, cars were EVERYWHERE and did you know ROADS WERE ORIGINALLY MEANT FOR PEOPLE. kind of sad how conditioned we americans are for a car centric environment.TLDR cars are not exactly the best idea over trains, and Miyabi isn't only thinking of himself only anyways ( he likes building for other people, not to mention he's definitely the "journey is more important than the destination" kinda guy so his goal isn't only getting from point a to b, cause at that point just build a plane if you're going through all that effort).
