It Seems I Came to Another World, Now What Should I Do

The trance-faced group of dead bodies lay around the fire and go for a walk in the taro. I can't start talking without leaving this for a little while.

Out to the beach, at the wave strike, Talo chases after the wave to return, and he escapes.

"Stay!! Mizu!!

He comes and goes with a properly elevated, joyful chirp. Oh, I wore it. But I look like I'm having fun re-challenging it. Oh, I remember my old dog saying that you liked to challenge waves.

I thought I'd hang out, but I'm not hanging out yet. When will I remember? Are you satisfied to a certain extent, rubbing against your feet but avoiding them?

"Stay? Stay!!

You mistook me for a new game, I'm going in. No, I just don't like being able to put sea water on my clothes... Avoid. No. It's on fire. Give up, put your arms around me and hold me up.

I saw how everyone was on their way back to the carriage, but it was about 80% corpse cumulative. When the mermaids get back on their feet, shall we start talking? Remove the tarai from the carriage and produce hot water.

"Look, Taro"

With that said, dip in the chapon. Makes a real face, but meditates his eyes with his hands and sprinkles hot water across the board. Wash the entire body, pull it up once, and soak the water raw again.

"Stay?"

You wondered if it was a little different from your usual bath, sounds right. Wash clean and pull up. Did the stickiness refresh you, it sounds happy. Wipe clean and let go in the box.

Dive into the fur and get rounded up by adults. I ate and exercised, so I guess I got sleepy. I tend to be absent and start to get annoyed as it is.

"Ray, I'm sorry, but can I ask you later?

"I'm in awe"

Give Ray, who was his turn in the carriage, a refill of hot water from the hot tub and deposit the taro. Return straight to the fire. To the boulder, it's time we're all starting to get up.

"Well, let's move on with the talks"

That said, I give them white water in their cups. Everyone looks relieved as they sip hot white water.

"Mr. Belhemia, Mr. Gadimina. I'd like to talk to you to some extent about your future relationship. Is that all right?

When I ask, we both nod.

"May I give you some information about the contracts, etc. that I have had with the villages on the west side?

Asked, the village side was mostly favorable content. Sure, I'm a good opponent for harvesting seafood, and I have a lot of sea resources. But it felt too one-sided.

"On this condition, I think the lives of mermaids are pretty tight?

"Right...... However, there are various circumstances..."

Gadimina answers. Will the non-negotiating party come forward? Hmm.

"As a big problem, we mermaids, but we are overwhelmingly biased against women in gender. The number of males born is low. So with the human..."

Ah...... I see. There's half a chance that mermaids and humans will be together and the child will be born in which race. The point is, if a human child is born, is it supposed to be raised in the village? Let's rectify this. He's a precious child. It's not just about the mermaid side.

"Okay. By the way, what's going on with parenting?

"We'll have a cabin built by the sea, where we'll live together. However, they are put into foster care at an early stage...... It's better for the kids."

When Gadimina answered that, she looked a little sloppy. Take extraneous charge and make him look like this. I can't tell you how a mother feels about losing a child, or how a child feels about losing a mother, both of which are understandable, but hard.

Ah, shit, I'm gonna have to change the village design a lot. Some of the west side would have been a cove if it had crossed the rock.

"Kabia, do you see how far the waves go in the western coves?

"The perimeter confirmation is complete. It's the biggest around here."

Draw a line with your fingers on a detailed neighborhood map spread out by Kabia. It's a ten-minute walk from the village. Let's include this place in the village.

"If you are a mermaid, how far can you go ashore?

"Once you have some body, two days a day is possible. This way it will contain mucus between the scales, so it will not dry."

With that said, Gadimina invests in her body. Then the scaly part of the foot crease opens like a pine cone and you can see the soft interior. At the same time, I am pulling the thread. I was wondering what to do when it itches inside or something, but is that what's happening......

I was thinking about securing a fisherman, but I don't want one. I leave it entirely to Mr. Mermaid's side. So, I'm sure you'll have your spot.

Kabia, as you marry mermaids, raise what you assume to be an obstacle.

"The mermaids didn't ask for it, and they didn't have the means to pay taxes."

These kids... Human beings in this world are patient. Still, there is too much going on. I put up with things I don't have to put up with. Damn it. Will that tear my parents and children apart? Besides, when it comes to taxes, you just have to buy them up instead of bartering.

"Mr. Gadimina, how many mermaids can you catch in a day?

"Right. If you can borrow a net, it's definitely around 100 for four if you don't ask about fish species. However, if you catch too much, it withers, so the limit is to that extent. After that, you'll be caught every day as you travel a lot."

"Kabia, what is the extent to which the tax can be covered by the proceeds in the event that salt is produced in the future and the relevant quantities of fish are regularly transported to 'Lisatia'?

"Yes, more than 300 people are definitely possible, thinking at a discount from the price of distribution in the town of the Viscount today. However, with more circulation, the price drops, so adjustments are necessary."

"Is that out of the cost of living?

"No. The calculation includes the cost of living. We calculate the cost of living for a typical household when half of its income is paid to the state."

You're gonna treat me like a harvest tax? Looking at the tax payables, there was no mention of fishery resources. Are you hooked on some sort of customary law?

"By the way, is that being implemented? Are taxes applied to mermaids in western villages, for example?

"No. We don't have a guild to handle tax revenues either. The state is also excluded from income tax because income is insignificant."

"How likely are you to be taxed in the future?

"Distribution in the baron's territory alone doesn't take much difference between them. Did I just say that if circulation to other territories begins and the amount increases, it could be eligible?"

Mm-hmm. It's a 10-year exemption when it comes to income taxes in the first place. Is there a problem if we root for the inclusion of fisheries in the scope of application? That's a Rostee project. I'll write you a letter later.

"Okay. Later, I will confirm (confirmed) the request to the Duke to root in a letter. Please respond."

"I'm in awe"

"Um, what do you say...?

Gadimina is unable to follow the story and looks slightly troubled.

"In conclusion, Mr Gadimina, The mermaids will be my inhabitants. I want you to live in this land."

"Huh? But we are predominantly living in the sea..."

"It's possible to live at sea, isn't it? How many of us have ever wanted to fall in love with humans and accompany each other? How many have that been ripped off? I want to end that tragedy."

That being said, Gadimina shuts up.

"I'm not talking about wanting anything to stay home at all times. In the future, fisheries will undergo a major shift. Fish mean a lot in this territory. I'd like to give you a settlement in exchange for you catching it and splitting it up."

Hand blocks Gadimina from looking up and trying to say something.

"I'll be frank. The ocean is not a paradise. The mermaids are always in danger. Different?

"How could you do that?

"Mr. Belhemia is an excellent and trustworthy man. However, I'm sorry to be called the head of the settlement, but it doesn't weigh enough. It would normally be a job done by older people. There must be some kind of threat coming at you."

The moment I say that, Gadimina drops her shoulder.

"Yes, there are demons and large carnivores among the oceans. We are alive because of our earlier sacrifices."

Gadimina wrinkles at the root of her eyebrows and expresses her sorrow.

"Place a fence in a narrow part of the cove to prevent intrusion. Build a house in or around the cove. Use that."

The depth of the cove is about 4 to 5 meters. It's not that hard to build a fence to that extent. The installation should also be left to Mr. Mermaid. It may not be made into a movable fence or provided with an opening or closing. The narrow area is about 20 meters. It's not that expensive either.

"Are you serious?

"Originally, no one takes responsibility while admitting it, and there is responsibility on the human side that was hanging around. I acknowledge and rectify it as my responsibility in this land."

"So you finally have a day to live with the kids...... Whether you're a mermaid or a human being."

Gadimina squeaks with a slightly shuddered face.

"Yes, I can live with your husband too"

"Ah...... Right...... The day will come when loved ones can finally walk with each other."

"I hope so."

There are mermaids and humans who want to accompany them. A very attractive opponent. It just couldn't happen because of the difference in lifestyle and the fact that it wasn't possible or reluctant. If you pay for the fence, you can.

"Kabia, personnel to settle in the land, but were there many single men?

"Yes. I think colonization in the zone is tough. It is difficult to include families because it is a condition of being a trustworthy person again. Turns out, single men are everything."

"That's why. I'm afraid I'll have to take care of you, but please fall in love with me a lot. Please nurture love. Bring abundance to this land. All I want is for everyone to be happy."

"Baron, we have also investigated the cove side wells. I will put my place of residence there and change the current plan to say that only salt mills and agricultural land will be executed, okay?

"Well, it's the same residents of 'Lisatia' who have to travel to the workplace. Let's change it. After that, I didn't even think about the church, but if you include education, you need it. Can you ask for that, too?

"I'm in awe. We'll fix it."

With that said, Gadimina collapses as relieved. Belhemia supports it.

"You can welcome us as residents, too. Not as neighbors, but as the same people."

Belhemia confirms it here with her strong eyes.

"Yes. I originally meant to. I'll be busy from now on. I hope we can all work together to make each other happy."

If you answer that, you get zero puffs and a drop from Belhemia.

"Ah...... We'll have a safe place to live too... Thank you."

"No, not me. Let's do our best to each other, is. So please keep it up."

"Yes, thank you very much."

Belhemia smiles brightly like a blossoming flower.

"But if you can on the ground, I'd like you to wear clothes..."

"Yes, it's the same in the western village, so it's okay."

That's what I say, laughing at each other. Well, the same people. Soot together and the problem will be solved. First step. This cleared up the issue of fishing and that of Mr Mermaid.

It's a good thing if this solves some of the problems left over from humans. I mean, I felt like doing something about the idiot I left halfway through.
