"How about this, Mr. Eugene? Isn't that what you're getting at?

"Oh, yes, I think so, Mr. Blades. That's great."

"During the winter, the farming squad was empty. Thanks to a little help."

The heart of the village of Houjo.

There was the figure of civil servant Eugene and village chief Blaze.

Blades arms up. Yeah. He's nodding satisfactorily.

Look at the square in front of you.

"Nevertheless, I can't believe we're going to need a square this big for everyone to get together... You really have more people!

"Well, you can pack it up and go to the circular theater in front of Mr. Eugene's house. If it's a festival, that's about it. Uh!

"Not only this year, I want to make it a regular, spring (...) 's (...) Festival (...) Ri (...)!"

The village of Houjo had a snowmelt after a long winter.

Civilian Eugene and the village chief's blaze seemed to confirm the creation of a square that would serve as a festival venue.

"Tomas and the others were hanging out, right? I'm gonna build a stall, so somebody wants me to open a store! Holy shit."

"Ha, sounds like Mr. Tomas"

"Oh. I've been building houses for a long time now. You want to create something different for your distractions."

"Oh, right. Because migrants have come here every year for the last 4 years or so. 12 (...) years since I got here (...). The last 4 years have been the most crowded."

"Oh. Employees, needles, merchants, peasants, guards. Some of them are from my family. You know what, Mr. Eugene? If the kids fit, they're almost over 300, right?

"Are you such a number already!

Spring of the twelfth year since Eugene came to this world.

The number of migrants who have welcomed each year since their eighth year totals over 200.

The increase in numbers to the Kevin Chamber of Commerce cannery and needle factory, the farmers who have migrated to take charge of field work and livestock production, the merchants who reside in Kevin Chamber of Commerce stores, which have become permanent since temporarily, and finally the guards who have become public organizations from the defense corps as vigilantes.

Compared to the population of the village of Houjo in its eighth year, which also included 42 doctors, it is more than five times larger.

"But I'm glad it's all good people. It stays relaxed."

"This village is wealthy. I'm not in trouble for anything to eat or money, it's not rough. Sometimes the Lords and their deputies and Kevin are looking into it."

"Is that big? I don't feel bad because I'm only going to see her for the last time."

"Oh, Mr. Eugene said that's fine. Hey, Cottaro?

Of the blaze question, wow! and Kotalou returning a cheerful chirp.

That's right, you don't have to yu to give it to me, all the time.

That's the final interviewer.

Incidentally, in the case of the Lords and their deputies, Kevin, and adventurers, plus some interview hopefuls who dived through the Alliance Master interview, but were dropped by Cottalow.

He is a hidden power man in the village of Houjo. It's a dog, though.

Twelfth year since Eugene came to this world.

Cottaro is no longer 27 years old.

Depending on the breed of dog, dogs would have a pretty long life if they lived 20 years. Even the Guinness record is 29 years old.

When the rank rises, the physical ability increases and the life expectancy also increases.

Given that there are people who live to be about 150 years old, life expectancy will extend by more than double.

Kotalou is still running around fine.

Year 12.

Eugene is now 42 years old.

It is confusing or nasty.

He is a fine middle-aged man.

The appearance hasn't changed so much, probably because of the rise in rank and the extended life span.

Researchers who moved to Houjo Village say that they look long when they are physically most fulfilled, from which they loosely change their appearance.

"The square is ready. All right, now you seem to be okay whenever everyone comes!

"Mr. Kevin will be here soon, but isn't it still going to take the others? It's a journey after the snowmelt is gone."

"Mr. Blaze, you can't be alarmed. Because it depends on the mood of Mr. Hull and everyone else in the elf! He's picking me up! Or something like that."

"... indeed. Were they able to travel by ship?"

Prepared in a large square is the venue for the Spring Festival.

Some people plan to attend the spring festival, which will be held for the first time in the village of Houjo, from another location.

Elves who use submarines can travel without problems, even if the roads are soaked. Although limited to the river.

If an elf living in an elf residence in the village of Houjo cares about it, he'll just collect it.

For all the cities of Plumier, the king's capital, and the Lizardman dwell in the river, all those related to Eugene.

"Sounds like you should ask me what you're going to do! Someone might come from the inside."

"Right, please, Mr. Eugene. Whoa, if you wasa."

Blades of village chiefs looking behind Eugene's back.

Seeing the trick, both Eugene and Kotalou look back.

"Yes! Guys, over here!

"Look, I don't look around! It's gonna get out of the way!

Two girls are spearheading the little ones born in the village of Houjo and the children who have emigrated.

Girl leading the way with her red hair twitching and her big eyes glowing with pleasure.

It's Alice.

Alice, she is 16.

The young girl, protected by Eugene, had grown into a perfectly beautiful girl.

Because the human adult in this world is 15 years old, she is an adult woman today.

Alice is followed by a girl surrounded by little ones.

The fine blonde hair is reflecting the sun and shimmering.

It is Liese.

Elf girl Reese, aged 18.

Nevertheless, Elf's adult is 100 years old, and until then he has grown slower than a human being.

Reese, at some point Alice had lost her height.

"Heh heh, if I reese, I'm totally screwed"

"Grandmother! Reese is already a fine lady!

Following from the rear of the group is Leese's grandmother, Isabelle the Elf.

Hundreds of year-old elves haven't looked the same since they met Eugene.

When Reese leaves the village of Houjo, Isabel or Reese's parents are always escorted as escorts.

Around the two girls and the children, a little wolf was walking.

Are you going to escort me?

"Ah, brother Eugene! Mr. Blaze! Hello!

"Ooh, hello, Alice. Thanks for taking care of the kids."

"You're welcome! Me, I have to work because I'm already Otona!

"Ha, Alice has her using magic every time she does construction. Enough, though."

"Um, I'll be over soon!

Even at the age of 16, Alice's naiveté doesn't seem to have changed.

"Alice, Liese. Look, there's going to be a festival here soon."

"Wow, Hiroi! You've all done your best!

"Your grandmother, your grandmother, your father and your mother are going to the festival, right? Leese would like to come with me."

"Hehe, don't worry. Me and my son and my wife will be there, so I'll take Leese with me."

"Yay! Alice, let's go together!

"Yeah, Reese!

A 16-year-old person and an 18-year-old elf.

Years go by and the order of height changes, they don't change the way the two of us get along.

It is also with us that we both think 'I am your sister'.

Spring of the twelfth year since Eugene came to this world.

Some things don't change, some things change.

In the meantime, whether there are more migrants or a wider village.

The village of Houjo still seems peaceful today.
