I’m an Adventurer! ~Musou Skill is Plane Magic~
Episode 206: Our Future and Beyond
Thanks for looking after me, bye. Jasmine, you have to train hard. "
"I know, Dad. Don't worry about it."
"Be careful."
The Count returned with a caravan heading to his own territory. I wondered if Jasmine had come to greet your sister, but she said it was the end of the year, so she came to do some sort of administrative procedure for paying taxes. Jasmine, it looks like your sister was expecting you.
Until last year, it was Takumi Village, so it was exempted from all duties, but since it became a viceroy this year, it seems that there were various procedures that had to be done. That's why I had to go to the office, but I still don't have an office in the Viscount Territory, and the nearest office was the Dolton Adventurer Guild. It's about 400 kilometers away. Once the streets are open, the Adventurers Guild will be able to branch out, so I hope you'll be patient until then.
I wish I could have picked you up, but lately I've been strangely busy and I don't think so. No, it's the result of adding more work on my own. I'll make plans next year.
Meanwhile, Jasmine's sister stays in Dorton. I'm going to live here for a while and get a courtesy lesson from Christella. Specifically, until I'm ten. A little more than a year. I plan to officially marry at the age of ten with a ceremony.
... get married. This is the first event in my life. I don't know how it feels.
Christella has been disciplined as harshly as possible with the Duchess since she was young, so her manners are perfect. I've been taught a lot. That's why the Vicomte tasked me with education.
"If you're going to be Beat-sama's wife, you'll have to learn to be embarrassed wherever you are!
This will make Jasmine's sister a little more gentle.... will it be? I don't think so. I hope so. Is that all you have to do?
For some reason, all of our women's groups received the classroom together. They say it's for the future. I don't know what kind of future everyone is expecting, but I want you to stop looking at me in a glare. Well, there were some eyes on Basil. Hmm, heh, I see, I see.
It may be good if there is courtesy in the school classes that will open next year. Sometimes you ask for an escort or something to deal with a nobleman. I think it should be incorporated into the curriculum.
I mean, can't I do more work like this? Reflection. For the time being, let's adjust to reduce work.
◇
"So in the future, we will bathe separately for men and women."
Oh, suddenly.
"It's tyranny! I absolutely disagree!!"
After sending out the Vicomte, we gather everyone in the living room to talk about our future lives. Let's start with bathing rules for tonight.
Until now, everyone had been bathing in the bath. It was pushed by the power of the female team, but that's not how it works from now on.
Jasmine's sister is, hypothetically, a Vicomte. I wonder what it's like for an unmarried woman of that noble status to bathe with a man, even though she's her fiancée.
"I don't give a shit. I've known beat naked since I was a kid."
"No, it's not that I don't care, it's ethical. Think about it with common sense, okay?
"Eh!? Common sense from the mouth of beet solder!?"
"Yahaha, this is an interesting joke!
"There, May flies!
Yes.
I silenced Kikka and Agna with a glance to put in the extra chatter. As usual, there is no color of reflection. Are there any effective stools? Shall we line up Mikan's skin?
Sure, Jasmine and I have been playing in rivers and wells together since we were little, and we've been naked together. But that was still when Jasmine's sister was Tsurupeta, and now that she's bonk-boo, that's not the case. I'm still a kid, and because I'm a kid, it could be a case. Jasmine's sister is almost fifteen and she is an adult in this country.
"And, hey?
I looked at Chilari and Basil.
Basil is a little older than me, a civilian servant who is not a slave.
Until now, since I am the husband, I had no problem taking a bath with my servant Basil. It is only natural for an servant to take care of his husband. Well, I feel like I'm taking care of you.
But it's a problem for Basil to go in with Jasmine's sister. This country is slightly patriarchal, so even if it is okay for the husband to take a bath with a servant woman, it is a problem for his wife and daughter to take a bath with a servant man. Why? Well, that's because it's a fart and I'm a fart.
"Then I'll go in alone."
No, no, no.
Rather, I want to go in alone. You can't relax if we all go in. But Basil is quiet, so there are a few people I don't care about coming in with. Daisy, Sarasa and Lily also have a small mouth count, but because they are girls, I can't calm down because I am very careful. Only same-sex people can date naked.
"Then I'll let you in alone.
"No, that's a little too. As a nobleman who keeps his daughter in custody, you can't even be one of the caregivers, right?
This is also an aristocratic gesture. It's a gloomy, shikitari look.
If I were alone, I wouldn't be able to ignore cancer, but if I took care of another lady, I wouldn't. At least one person shall take care of himself.
Christella would be the best person to teach her manners. In other words, it's certain that Christella and Jasmine will take a bath together. It's a decision.
"Gunununu, sure, there are such customs as usual...."
"Why, where did you get the knowledge you don't need?
No, it's just another Christella.
"Kh, what are you doing, me of the past! I don't remember, I want to go back in time and seal my mouth!
"No, no, keep your mouth shut. Because you're dead if you seal your mouth.
"I wish I had kept my mouth shut and my cheeks shut! That way, I would have been happy then, now and forever!
I'm scared! It's been a while since Christella was in Ponzo mode. When this happens, I can't get my hands on it. I have to leave it for a while.
Next, let's split the room in the building. I can't keep Jasmine's sister in the guest room forever, so I have to allocate a room, but I don't have a room other than the guest room right now. "
Everyone but me is in two rooms now. Christella and Daisy, Kicca and Argna, Luca and Samantha, Basil and Lily, and Kirara and Sarasa each live in the same room. Wu and Tarojiro are in my room, and Pee is sleeping in Lily's room.
However, since Christella and Daisy are sneaking into my bed sometime, the beds in both rooms are just interiors. Sometimes Luca is mixed up. That's why my room is the biggest, but the most densely populated when sleeping. I don't say it's hot in winter, but it's not cold.
By the way, Kikka and Argna's room is an original. Because I couldn't get a room if I didn't.
"The narrower the better."
The boat room is also small. Urakami elves are much narrower. "
That's why it happened. Cats like narrow spaces, but apparently so do sea elves.
"In that case, me and Daisy will officially go along with Mr. Beat! One room is available, and that's the solution!
"So at this point, I'm going to build or remodel."
"I've been flushed!?"
Christella, who is still in Ponkotsu mode, ignores everything and proceeds.
I thought the number of people had grown considerably and the building was getting cramped. In the first place, it was built as a detached residence when the merchant came on business, so there's only room and space there. I didn't expect to live with this number of adults. I didn't think it would be like this when I bought this house.
In order to break the status quo, it is necessary to move or renovate. Bucha, you can move to the Lords Hall, but it's hard to throw away the hot springs that are welling up here. I don't know the efficacy or quality of the spring, but it's hard to get a private hot spring fed by the source spring. It's troublesome to dig again.
Therefore, there is no alternative to additional renovation. The question is whether to build or renovate.
If we build more, we will build a new building in the corner of the garden. In that case, the current building will remain intact, so you can maintain your current life. Half of it is a separate building, so the traffic may be troublesome, and depending on the size of the building to be built, the garden may become narrower or the sun may get worse.
If it were to be remodeled, it would be to rebuild the current building. You just need a few more rooms and about three stories. And by the way, if we renovate the places that I feel are inconvenient now, we will be comfortable in the future. However, in that case, we must temporarily move because we will demolish the current building. In the meantime, I may feel inconvenient.
Explaining that sort of thing, I tried to ask everyone for their opinions on which is better.
I wonder if Atai will build more. I still don't think it's inconvenient. "
Atashi, too. It's still comfortable enough. "
"That's right. It's easier to live here than when I lived in the countryside."
"Agree"
Samantha, Arnha, Kirara, and Sarasa are builders? Well, compared to other houses in this country, we also have magical tools and hot springs that make it easier to live in. If the problem is solved as it is, I think that would be better.
"I recommend renovating it. The current museum is splendid, but considering the future, the current situation is not the best. I think we need to make it bigger and bigger in the future."
"Don't let me. I don't need a noble look. It also works."
"Oh, I'm glad I have a wider kitchen. It's a little cramped."
Christella, Kikka, Luca want to remodel? Look to the future, hey.
What's my future like? The immediate goal (what I want to do) has almost been achieved already. I think the dragons are going to sting, but it's not a goal to hurry.
If you want to live as a kingdom nobleman like this, you will need a good track record and connections.
You can do what you do now, or you can develop a base in the Great Forest and turn it into a territory. If that happens, you'll eventually become a Vicomte. Well, that's what we're looking for.
Connet is known to the Vicomte and Count Dolton, and owes one of the three Marquises, the Hugo family. After all, the king, who is the top of the country, and the head of the interior ministry are also acquainted with the head of the neighboring ende. There will be no need to be particularly impatient.
"How's Daisy? Do you have any comments?
"... I don't want my garden to be ruined."
Hmm, whether it's a renovation or an increase, the garden is going to be rough with replanting, felling, etc. Daisy has a hobby for gardening and vegetable gardens, so she can't agree with either.
"Otherwise, the vegetable garden will harvest the crops it's planting now, and the garden trees will be replanted to the base once it's finished."
"... that's fine. Neither is a problem."
Does Daisy want to be a gardener in the future? I think it would be a waste to have the talent to be the most powerful martial artist, but the gardener of nobility is also the guardian of the Mansion. There is also the word "garden number". It may be suitable for out-of-the-box use.
"What about Basil and Lily?
"It doesn't matter to us, either. But I'd love to run around and have a garden."
"(Kokoku)"
"Pee! Pee is good with Mom and Dad!
"In either case, I'm going to buy some land around, so I don't think the garden will get too narrow. But one way or another, I wonder if the construction will be narrower. There's going to be more buildings."
"If so, renovation is good!
"(Kokoku!
"Pee! Pee is good with Mom and Dad!
Hmm, it's really a dog-beastern decision. Cats and sea elves like narrow spaces, and dogs like wide spaces. And Pee-chan didn't think anything. No, you don't understand. Clever, but still a few months old.
"Jasmine, where's your sister?
"Atashi? Yeah, Atashi can train anywhere on a rainy day. What if you like it, whether it's construction or renovation?
I don't know, Jasmine. My sister's brain is muscularizing. I seem to have forgotten the original purpose of living at home as soon as possible. We have to do something. Come on, Christella!
"To sum up everyone's opinions, it seems that there are a lot of modifiers. I think it would be better to renovate it, so I'll proceed in that direction. Now that the carpenter is too busy to work on it, I'll just have him design it. Once the drawings are ready, let's get everyone's input and change them. I wonder if it's too late spring for the construction. I will temporarily move to a large forest hub, but don't worry, I'll pick you up and drop you off. Is that all right?
"" "Yes!
Everyone gives a breathtaking reply. Nice teamwork.
When I thought about it, Jasmine's sister asked me a question.
"Hey Beat, what's the big forest hub? What are you doing?
Speaking of which, I haven't taken him yet. If you're going to get married, you'll have to reveal it, and it's a good opportunity, so why don't you take it with you for once?
Anna, one new person! Happy!
