Let's Manage The Tower
(6) Percentage of evolution
Because three kinds of god beasts have been decided for the god of the present (Kouske), there has not been any major change in the life of Kaiseki.
When I went to the designated three kinds of family members, I was more than ever warmly welcomed.
It was also a very slight change, and Kaiseki herself did not realize it at all. It was a change that finally occurred to me when I was told by Peach who visited the family base together for the first time in a long time.
Since I didn't understand Kouchi and Mitsuki who were always with me, I can say that I was more sensitive to change when I noticed the peach.
If you let Peach say that, "I think it's been a while, so I noticed ~"
Regardless, the decision of the god beast was only to that extent for Kaiseki, and I was willing to assume that it would continue to be so.
The sweet idea of such a study aid was to be crushed a month after talking to Sylvia and the others.
The first thing I noticed about the change was that I was worried about deciding whether it should be taken for granted or surprised, but it was a peach.
Sylvia was not the first to do so as a result of the survival of the ethnicity of a sharp peach intuition.
Peach, who had looked at the tower where he managed to keep his children with his nanny, twisted his neck and asked for help.
"... Mr. Kowske, did you summon your family to the northeast tower?"
"No? Nothing in particular?
I haven't set up any Summon Monsters in the Amamiya Tower recently.
Not to mention that there is not enough time to reach out to other towers.
Of course, I never set up a Summon Monster in the Northeast Tower.
Really ~
Peach twisted his neck in response to the examiner's reply.
Aid is not so dull as to not notice the situation.
"What happened?
"Yes... I think it may be because of my mind, but I felt that the proportion of my family members is evolving."
Yes?
I noticed that I didn't think I'd be assisted in making the peach declaration.
It has been more than 20 years since Kaiseki began managing the tower.
Therefore, the degree of evolution of the dependents was also predictable to some extent by each race.
To give a specific example, in the case of grey wolves, the empirical value was that about 30% to 40% evolved.
This is a number that includes not only wolves who have been summoned, but also wolves born naturally.
Perhaps by adding some installations, the proportion may change, but unfortunately, we have not found anything to dramatically increase so far.
As a result, members shared the view that there would be no further change in evolution.
Of course, we've been searching for something to increase the percentage, but we haven't found it yet.
Peach's report overturned the status quo.
For a moment, I couldn't understand what Peach said, but I quickly felt surprised.
"Really!?
"Yes, the percentage of top species hasn't changed in the last few years, but I've checked and it seems to be increasing."
"Where is it?! Let's go now!... ah, time's fine, right?
I stood up to go to the Northeast Tower immediately, but I looked back at the peach and confirmed.
I also know that I'm busy with peaches.
"Of course, it's okay ~"
Peach nodded with a smile in response to such an examination.
Peach guided the study to a hierarchy of wolves in the northeast tower.
After carefully checking the wolves scattered in the hierarchy, Kaiseki murmured as he roared.
"... yes, there are more of them."
Is that so ~
I nodded relieved at the conclusion reached by the examiner.
I was using my tools to properly identify the race, but it was possible that I missed it or mistaken it.
"Around 60% of the species are top species, right?
"That's right, that's what it looked like when I checked."
I didn't count the exact number.
However, it would hardly be wrong for both the examiner and Peach to feel the same way.
Then there are a few things that bother me.
"... is this the only level?
"No, there was another wolf in the same hierarchy. But the rest of your family doesn't seem to have changed."
In the words of the peach, Kaiseki leaned his neck.
"Only wolves? What does that mean again?
If the percentage is constantly increasing in other hierarchies, it can be inferred that something happened in the whole tower, but if only the wolf, there are other factors.
However, there is no special installation in the wolf hierarchy.
I was thinking about the cause in that place all at once, but I shook my neck to the left and right without thinking anything.
"... no. I have no idea."
I cut out my thoughts with a peach and so on in the study aid that sighed like I gave up while saying so.
"Um, maybe..."
"What? Can you think of anything?
Peach nodded to the question of the examiner.
"Yes, wolves have recently been designated by Kowsky's beast, haven't they?
The words of the peach made Kaiseki look like he had been poked in the face for a moment.
"... ah, something like that happened. Speaking of which,"
I said that, but I didn't forget that I decided on a god beast.
I didn't even think about influencing the evolution of my family.
In that case, should I check the whole thing, not just the northeast tower?
That's right ~
If making wolves into beasts is influencing evolution, of course other towers will see the same change.
Peach nodded in agreement with the words of the examiner who thought so.

In conclusion, the peach was not wrong.
After confirming the tower in the northeast, Kaiseki immediately checked the families in the tower of Amamiya.
However, the Amamiya Tower has a large number of hierarchies and a large number of family members, so not all of them have been thoroughly examined.
Over the course of a few days, we looked at the percentage of wolves, foxes, and slime top species that we designated as beasts of God, and we also looked at some excerpts from other families.
In the meantime, the female team had seen the same percentage of evolution in other towers.
As a result, we came to the conclusion that the three kinds of family members designated as Divine Beasts are increasing the proportion of evolution.
"Hmm. This was unexpected, but should I be happy?
Sylvia leaned her neck with a strange look at the examiner who said so with a subtle expression.
"Isn't it something to be happy about, because there are more species at the top?
"Oh, yeah. I won't deny it myself. But isn't it terrible that it is necessary to set a god beast in order to increase the rate of evolution?
Sylvia became increasingly confused by the words of this examiner.
The examiner who saw it continued to explain further.
"After all, you can say that the evolution of the family is almost necessary to manage the tower, but you need to be a god to make it easier, right?
Having heard the explanation, Sylvia finally understood what the examiner wanted to say.
"... I don't think there's much I can do about it, because Master Kouske is already a god."
No, well, yes.
I nodded convincingly to Sylvia's words, but the expression seemed unconvincing.
