Chapter 97
Translator: “Hakou” Editor: “Weasalopes”
_______________________________________________________________
I feel completely satisfied after going to「Uniform specialty store. Any uniform is available. Come, you are in uniform, conquer now!」, so I returned home.
I won’t go to another store today. Since I have exhausted everything I have.
「What is it, Imosuke?」
I was in my sage mode, while enjoying the rich aroma of a coffee when Imosuke asked me a question in a small voice.
It lifted the upper-half of its body, waving its wart feet since a while ago to get my attention.
「A pond?」
Apparently it wants me to build a pond in the forest garden.
It seems important for heavy lancer’s drinking place.
It was rare for my spirit beast to ask for something so I wanted to try and grant it for them.
After dawn the next day.
I’ve been working on the pond in the forest garden since morning
「As I thought, I have to make it waterproof」
The forest garden is located on the third floor, or the rooftop of the second floor to be exact. The third floor where I lived is narrower and smaller compared to the first and second floor of the building because half of it was made as a garden.
Therefore, it’s absolutely necessary to avoid any water leaking to the second floor.
「Hey! Shoo shoo… go away from here or I’ll crush you guys」
I drove away the heavy lancers from the site where I planned to build the pond.
Creatures that are not bigger than my thumb was running away from there.
As a matter of fact, because of Imosuke’s divine protection, I don’t have to worry about accidentally crushing the heavy lancer. Unless I do it on purpose, it will turn and dodge swiftly like a plant along with the space around it.
I know that, but still, I just wanted to keep them away from my work space.
By the way, I considered these little four legged creatures as the heavy lancers. So I call it just that.
「Around here, huh」
I drew the pond’s shape with chalk and started digging along with Dangorou.
My goal is to make a pond that’s one meter in diameter and ten centimeters deep.
There’s still plenty of room before I reach the roof slab so I can make it a little more deeper but, considering the size of the heavy lancers, I went with this size instead.
I want to build it from the ground work, so I’m going to dig it twice the depth.
「Ohh! way to go there, Dangorou!」
Dangorou is energetically digging up the soil, sending it flying with its many feet. Just like a rotary snow blower.
My weapon is a toy-like gardening scoop. So I’m struggling digging the ground that was unexpectedly hard.
No joke, but at this rate, I will fall behind a 20 centimeter dung beetle. I decided to put more spirit.
「Yosh, this is enough for this morning」
I managed to dig it up by afternoon, somehow.
I sat by the medicinal tree and crammed the club house sandwich into my mouth.
Imosuke and Dangorou even went all the way to come beside me, and Imosuke started eating the medicinal leaves lying on the ground while Dangorou ate the crumbs that fell from my sandwich.
It feels like I’m having lunch with my family, it feels really nice.
We took a good nap because of this atmosphere.
In the evening, we finally work on the pond’s actual foundation.
「Firstly, apply the clay」
I purchased it first thing in the morning at a gardening store, and thinly applied the clay that had been delivered to me. It was the same shop where I buy irregular flagstones for Imosuke.
After carefully tamping the clay, I placed a dish-shaped container with 1 meter in diameter and 15 cm in depth. It’s the so-called preformed pond.
Although you can’t freely choose how it’s shaped, there’s no need to worry about water leakage. This is the best option if you want to build a pond on the rooftop.
After that, I placed small pebbles inside it. I didn’t forget to make the shore surrounding it shallow so the heavy lancers won’t get drowned.
Finally, I dug a trench between the pond and the rooftop’s drainage system. Then, just like the pond, I applied clay onto it, I also set up a ditch and decorated it with small pebbles to make them look like a stream.
「It’s finished!」
And without further ado, I drew water from the kitchen with a hose and started accumulating water inside the pond.
「How is it Dangorou? Is there any water leakage?」
Why did I ask Dangorou? Because it can understand the situation underground to some extent.
A wave saying『It’s okay』came to me.
「It’s not bad if I say so myself」
The accumulated water began to flow towards the river that leads to the drainage.
While watching it worked out like that, I wiped the sweat from my forehead and sat by the medicinal tree.
It was quite the hard work. Doing it with a single gardening scoop is tough as expected. I was made to realize the proverb saying Tools over arms with my body.
If Dangorou had not been there, it would not have ended today.
The heavy lancers are already playing at the pond.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt「Is it okay to leave the dug out soil as it is?」
I asked Dangorou. Thankfully, they will clean it up later.
Honestly, I don’t want to do any more digging up work.
「Well, the most difficult thing would be its maintenance I think…」
Maintenance would be more time-consuming and need more labor than building. Especially anything related to the garden. Fortunately, there are two of my spirit beasts who live in the forest garden. I think it’ll work out somehow.
I started packing my bags to clean my body covered in sweat and dust.
「Then, I will go and cleanse myself up, okay?」
I said a few words to my kin before heading to the entrance of a nearby brothel.
It was to take a bath. I depend on this whenever I feel it’s troublesome to wash my body by myself.
I randomly chose a woman and had her wash my body thoroughly. Good massage after bath feels good too
(Hmm… I did say I won’t release anymore today but… well, might as well do it)
I’m tired, but if she does the moving then I guess it’s fine. I thought so and laid flat on the bed like a Tuna.
I thought she was going to do it lightly with one hand, but the young wife who had an Indian-looking face was tightly gripping me with her two hands.
(As expected from a pro. I might have worried about a rude thing)
Actually, before starting, I saw her long nail art and was preparing myself to feel some pain.
But, because she’s massaging me using her chest and mouth simultaneously, there’s no feeling of anything stuck or pierced on my skin.
And now, the young Indian wife is riding on top of me swinging her body like the letter 八.
(Her body part bulges where it should bulge, but she was unexpectedly light)
Perhaps because of her small build that even if she has a curvy body line, she doesn’t feel that heavy.
I closed my eyes and entrusted my body to her without worrying about having difficulty breathing.
(Ahh… I feel refreshed)
After showering for the second time, I have her wipe my body again with a towel.
She even helped me change my clothes, it was comfortable.
After getting refreshed, I leave the store and walk down the main street sprinkling the scent of soap.
The place I’m heading next is a steakhouse.
(It’s meat! Meat!)
Unlike when I was in my teens and twenties, I no longer like to eat with just meat and fast food lately.
I’m not self-restraining myself but my body became like that on its own.
But even so, only after doing a heavy work like this I would eat meat.
「Lunch steak, 300 grams, with a lot of garlic sauce please」
I immediately ordered after looking at the menu. The waitress’ uniform skirt was so short it pleased my eyes.
However, I was a little disappointed after looking at her back when she finished taking the orders.
(So it wasn’t a wraparound skirt, but culottes huh…)
Well, this is not a brothel so it doesn’t matter if it’s a wraparound skirt or a culottes skirt. It’s not like we’re going to the bedroom after this anyway.
Still, it might be because of my feeling as a man, I feel like there’s a difference in defense between wraparound skirt and culottes skirt.
Even if you have no intention to attack, if you walk with such low defense like that, it’s the same as provoking everyone to attack you.
When I was thinking about such a thing, my orders were brought to me without having to wait for a long time.
I cut the thick meat on the plate with a knife and fill my mouth with it while still drenching with gravy.
The strong garlic flavor that escapes from my nose is irresistible.
I also ate the garnish that consisted of warm vegetables and filled my mouth with a hot coffee to finish it off.
(It’s truly the best when the food you ate was delicious)
As I thought, this world is the best.
I don’t have to worry about sickness or injury because of my recovery skill cheat. And there’s plenty of money, beautiful women and delicious food.
Never once I cried on my futon while thinking about Japanese food.
You can’t listen to the story of someone that was sent on a long-term business trip to Africa as the fifth subcontractor for administration development assistance without tearing up. I would die if I broke my leg at guinea bay and was sent to hospital that isn’t like the one in Germany*.
(TL Note: It doesn’t make any sense, I know. Thank you, author. Anyway, it seems that most hospital in Germany is free of charge, so I think here, the MC is emphasizing that he’s glad that he wasn’t sent to a random country with only his clothes on without any money, and would die from bone fracture if the hospital is expensive, not like the ones in Germany)
I’m completely satisfied and return home.
For now, I will just spend time with my family in the living room.
「Say, Imosuke, will their numbers increase again?」
I asked Imosuke who was sitting on my lap while watching over the heavy lancers outside the window.
Perhaps because it felt tired from all the work we did in the afternoon, Dangorou already fell asleep.
『Is it no good?』
As I thought, it will increase huh.
「Well, I’m not going to say that it’s no good, but I wonder if they can come with a bit more conspicuous ways so they won’t stand out」
『They stands out?』
「I think so. Try asking those guys in the garden」
Dangorou who woke up because of our conversation was stretching its tentacles.
A moment after, a heavy lancer came through the pet door. It’s a little bigger than the rest and has a different hair color.
I think he’s answering Imosuke’s questions. The heavy lancer made swinging and thrusting gestures with its horn.
Imosuke immediately came back after the questioning seemed to have finished.
『They are』
「Right?」
Maybe sensing the atmosphere around us, the heavy lancer was shrinking apologetically.
「Ah, it’s not like I’m blaming you so don’t mind it」
After hearing my words that were relayed through Imosuke, it became cheerful again and went back to the garden while looking back several times.
Two of my spirit beasts started to discuss the future plan.
(It’s a discussion between title holders. Maybe they will thought up some good idea that involves magic)
I always did my best thinking of a way in my head when I’m in front of my spirit beasts. Because I would feel uneasy if I just kept silent.
But now it’s better not to get in their way. I thought.
「How is it?」
It seems they have reached a conclusion so I asked them.
『We’ll do our best』
「…. O, ou, I’m counting on you」
Looks like they haven’t found a concrete solution for it in the end.
Well, it’s good enough that they both seriously thought about it so I can only accept it.
「The problem lies in those that will come here after all. There’s nothing we can do about it」
I comforted my spirit beast that felt apologetic.
If it was consulted in advance, it’s possible to invite them like Dangorou but, it’s not possible if it was an unexpected visitor.
「Well, let’s just deal with it when that happens」
I made the same conclusion as yesterday.
「I’ll give you guys a heads up if something like this happens again」
If it can be prevented before it happens then there’s no better way than that.
I discussed with my spirit beasts to decide whether to bring them to the forest garden or not. That should be fine for the time being.
I muttered while watching the pond, a new addition to the scenery in the forest garden.
***
One early afternoon, at a place far away from the Kingdom.
A girl in a light pink dress was walking with a hand basket woven from rattans.
In front of her is a wide flower garden.
As the sunlight shone down, petals of colorful flowers swayed by the wind.
(Beautiful…..)
The girl was passionately staring at it.
She has thin and long limbs, like an Eastern European model. A fair and thin face. Moreover, she also has long ears. All of her characteristics were that of an elf.
Behind the flower garden, a world tree that’s so large it can’t be described with just the word huge was spreading its branches.
This place is the Elf village where the Elves live.
The wind swaying the flowers brings a fragrant scent to the girl.
(I’m sure this is the most beautiful place in the world)
When she stepped into the flower garden, she’s spinning around like a ballerina. She can’t help but want to dance.
However she didn’t forget her purpose of coming to this place.
(Ah, I have to properly pick it up)
A small white flower like a lily of the valley is blooming prettily.
She put those into the basket carefully. The girl came here to pick the flowers.
She holds one in her mouth.
(So sweet~)
She involuntarily made a happy expression.
The nectar of this flower is used to make honey sake for their meals and is an indispensable item on Elves dining table.
(Oh, and this one too)
She also picked some dark green grass.
This will become materials for the dye. The color of the grass is dark green, but it will change to various colors during the extraction process.
The pink dress she’s wearing now was also dyed with this grass.
「Heya, you came huh」
When the basket was half full, she heard a voice behind her.
The girl’s face brightens as she turns around.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThere, her childhood friend is standing with a bright smile. On his right hand was a long wooden cane.
「Un! Are you in the middle of your work?」
「Yeah, I’m in the middle of patrolling」
He said and sat down. He then made a place to sit by flattening the grass with his left hand. He was asking her to sit right next to him.
Naturally, she took his offer and sat down beside him.
「My job has become easier lately. Nothing has been devastated after all」
The elven young man said while watching the flower garden.
Who could have imagined that just a few years ago, this flower garden that as far as the eye could see, was just a place full of weeds dense enough to cover the sky.
The weeds were cleared, flowers were planted, and it finally became a beautiful scenery like this.
「Um, that horse is really big, isn’t it?」
The young man nodded.
If they appeared, he must chase them away so as not to get into the flower garden.
A large body like a small mountain. And their appearance as a herd is so overwhelming that your body would froze in fear.
「Don’t be reckless, okay?」
The girl holds her knees and looks at her childhood friend with upturned eyes.
Protecting the flower garden from pests is one of the young man’s jobs. She thought that chasing away a giant beast with a plain wooden cane is a dangerous job.
「Don’t worry. Despite their large body, they are actually a timid fellow, you know?」
It was scary at the beginning but it’s nothing when you are already used to it.
They will immediately turn away as if they are scared when you stand in front of them to block their route.
Their appearance was so deceiving that the young man wanted to laugh at his old self who’s scared of them.
「It’s just that it took a really long time, you see. What a really annoying bunch」
He shrugged his shoulders while laughing.
It wasn’t dangerous but it takes a time to do it because even if you managed to chase it away, another one will show up right away from another place.
However lately, they have been rarely seen.
(I’m thankful for that)
Thanks to that, he can spend some time alone with his childhood friend like this.
「I’m sure they have no bad intentions but, they will trample the flowers just by walking by. It will be even worse when they showed up in a group」
「Mou! What a troublesome horse-san. It would be great if they were all just die」
She exclaimed while her cheeks were swelling prettily.
The young man scolded her lightly without breaking his gentle smile.
「Come on, don’t say that. Even if they look like that, they’re doing their best to live」
Then he continued.
「Even pests are part of nature, you know. We still have to be careful and do it in moderation to the extent that won’t make them extinct」
He then gently strokes the girl’s soft hair.
「How kind of you」
The color of respect is mixed in the eyes of the girl. She seemed impressed by her childhood friend’s generosity.
The young man picked a flower near his hand and used it to decorate the girl’s hair.
「I think this flower really fit with your dress」
It’s a light blue flower that has a sweet smell to it.
「…..Thank you」
The girl shyly faced down and thanked in a small voice.
And pink aura started to appear between them.
「Uu~!」
The flower garden where there were just the two of them. There was no one else at the moment. There, the girl’s leg suddenly held up high.
Long, thin legs with fair skin are shown up to the thighs. A boxer pants entangled on the sandal that’s been taken off.
「Uu~! Uuh~!」
Her leg was kicking the air, stretching out, and trembled for several times.
It then slowly sank onto the grass.
But a short time later, it rose into the air again, as if pointing to the sun.
A gentle gust of wind blows through the flower garden.
A lot of petals are swirled up by the wind and flew away from the surroundings of where they have drowned themselves.
And eventually, the sun slowly descended, making their body look reddish from the light.
「…….Uhh~!! …..Uhh~~!!」
However, the girl’s feet still doesn’t give up from staying in the air.
It was relentlessly moving up and down while trembling.
It’s not surprising because what’s long from elves were not just their physics. But also their time.
In the end, it lasted until the sun had completely fallen and one more elf’s bean had to wear protective clothes.
