677. Tsukgorou and the delightful gods of mourning.
When I remembered the story of Funeral God I heard from Nia before, my interest in Funeral God was slightly reversed.
So I just asked Nia a a little bit.
"Nia, have you ever seen another Mourning Goddess?
"I don't think so. Because I wasn't in the fairy tribe. I just read a book. But there are so many interesting stories!
Nia answered with high tension.
After all, he seems to like the story of the Mourning God.
Lily and Chappie, Mine from Dwarf, and Dorothy, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Genbain and senior researcher at the Royal Institute, came along.
Hanashiruri is also rubbing her sleepy eyes.
I don't think I was able to stand the drowsiness a long time ago and I fell asleep... it looks like I'm awake again.
"I have a book of mourning gods. Funny!"
Hanashiri said that she was as cute as a four-year-old looked.
I'm thirty-five years old inside... but let's not talk wild...
"Really!? I love talking about the Mourning God, too! What book do you have?
She asked in high tension as if Nia had found a fellow hobbyist.
"Really... a book called" Tsukgorou and Fun Funeral Gods ~ Records and Research of Funeral Gods ~ "
"I read that too! It's so funny!
Nia's tension rose even further.
"Yeah, there's a lot of stories I love too."
Hanashiri looks happy, too.
"It's funny how Dr. Tsukgorou met Lute's Mourning Goddess and was forced to pee and get angry!
"Yeah, and I can laugh at the mourning God with the pot that made me cry because I was afraid that the doctor would say yes and stroke me around."
"Oh, yes! That was super funny too!
Nia and Hanashiri are totally excited.
I'm left behind...
Incidentally, what Near said about Lute is a kind of stringed instrument.
It's a common instrument in this world.
The bard also uses it.
"Well... Dr. Tsukgorou, who wrote the book, is an honorary researcher at the Royal Institute."
Dorothy suddenly said that.
Nia and Hanashiri saw Dorothy with an incredible bite.
"Dorothy, have you ever met her?
Nia asked Dorothy with a look full of expectations.
"Yes, I'm retired and I'm not at the Royal Institute, but I've met him once. I'm sure she's 95 now. He said he was traveling all over the country looking for the Mourning God. I think that book was published... about 50 years ago."
"Really? I don't know... Where are you now? I want to see him."
"I want to see you and talk to you."
Nia and Hanashiri ate more.
"I'm old, so I think I'm in the Kingdom... I don't know... because I'm like a freelancer. Now I'm going to ask the people at the Royal Institute."
Dorothy said that and lowered her head a little sorry.
"Really? Thank you, Dorothy. If you know where he is, let's go see him!
Nia turned around in the air like she couldn't control her excitement.
Having listened to this interaction... I wanted to see you, too.
Dr. Tsukgorou has met many of the Mourning Gods in modern times, right?
Perhaps personally... the grape kingdom is also like a "kingdom of Tsukuba"... and may be building a paradise of mourning gods...
Incidentally... Nia taught me that Lute's Mourning Goddess would be able to play the melody he once heard.
It sounds like he can play the sound himself... in a sense, it's autoplay.
And it seems that someone will play the melody that is mouthless.
The performance is said to be as beautiful and heartfelt as a good player.
The Funeral God of the pot seems to have the ability to make the contents of the pot resistant to rot and, conversely, to accelerate aging and fermentation.
Together, these two mourners are able to grow and move around and have a conversation.
Lute's mourning god feels like a difficult uncle, and the pot's mourning god feels like a weak girl.
When I hear such a story, I want to see you more and more.
And I want to be friends with these mourning gods.
If I could be friends with Lute's Mourning God, I could be a composer.
I think I can cook a variety of dishes if I become friends with the mourning god with the pot.
Miso and other healthy foods such as medicinal fermentation liquid will be able to age quickly, and it seems like they can be prepared without taking time.
"I know where Dr. Tsukgorou is!
Suddenly, His Majesty the King walked in.
Apparently they were listening to us.
"Really!? Where the hell are you?
Nia caught her from above as usual.
But His Majesty the King has a smile that makes him happy to eat.
"As a matter of fact, Dr. Tsukgorou is taking a leisurely trip through the kingdom. And they're reporting the situation in each territory in a letter. He's acting like an unofficial local investigator. Probably in the Marquis of Cobalt next door right now. The Marquis of Cobalt has not had a good reputation lately. I asked you to go to the Marquis of Cobalt when I returned the letter the other day. There's a magic tool for mail. It's a box of magic tools, but it comes in a set of ten, and if you give me the number of those ten boxes and put them in a letter, they will arrive in that box immediately. I gave him one of those ten."
His Majesty the King taught me well.
Is it possible that Dr. Tsukgorou is a secret of His Majesty the King...?
And do you have any magic tools for mail...?
It's kind of like a real email.
I wonder if you can deliver one of the ten boxes, but are you transferring the letter itself or connecting the gate to another box...?
In any case, it would be a pretty valuable magical tool.
Communication magic tools seem more convenient because they can be spoken directly, but if you want to attach paper-based items or show paper-based information, postal magic tools seem better.
Perhaps the best thing is to be able to communicate while sending a letter so that you can call while looking at the email.
Ask His Majesty the King for a few minutes and he will be able to deliver a parcel the size of a box other than a letter.
Exactly the mail.
It feels like a private post office with instant delivery.
It's not a set of ten, but if it's a set of 100, it looks pretty good to use.
If there were a hundred or so, we could really do something like a post office in the Kingdom.
I wonder if there's any way to get those magical tools somewhere....
But if you think about it carefully, if you're going to do something like the postal business... you can still use the magic tools of transfer.
You can register the territorial capitals of all territories in the Kingdom as destinations for transfer, and create and deliver people like transfer couriers.
Although limited to each of the territorial capitals, it seems possible to create a mail network that will arrive in a short time.
And then... yes! I wonder if Dwarf's Mine can make magic tools for mail!
If she makes magical tools for a network of mailboxes that connect about a hundred locations, she might be able to do the mail business at the Fairy Chamber.
That might help people live.
As it stands, the only way to deliver a letter to a distant person seems to be to leave it with a merchant, who doesn't know if it will arrive reliably.
So it seems that fewer people write letters themselves in the first place.
Of course, there is a problem with the literacy rate, and there are quite a few people who cannot read and write letters, so the demand for letters is probably low at the moment.
Even if I did the mail business, it would be a deficit business for the time being.
But I think it will help people's lives in the future.
If the method of delivering it is a magical tool, it will arrive in an instant, so labor costs won't be much.
Even though it is a deficit business, can you do something about it?
You can send a parcel, so maybe you can do something like online mail to a noble or wealthy person.
Then it could become a business in deficit!
