Let's Manage The Tower

(10) All-purpose player

Tin, who was in charge of the production department, chose what he would grow in the fields created by Kaiseki.

To be precise, Tin chose what he thought would be relatively easy from what he said he wanted to raise.

Half of the fields cultivated were to be used by Kaiseki, and the remaining half were planted with Sylvia's own supplies.

Sylvia's answer to Sylvia's question about what the examiner plants

"Half of them are going to grow herbs. The other half is herbs, and the last half is for research."

"For research?

Sylvia nodded and continued to study what he was doing.

"Yes, because there are many native herbs that cannot be produced. I wonder if we can raise these things by hand."

"... oh. That's what I mean."

In the study aid, I thought that plant research was a breeding improvement, so I was convinced that there was a direction there.

Sylvia grows herbs to make her own medicine.

Sylvia is one of his specialties, as the temple also has these kinds of medicines.

Since there is nothing that the examiner can advise me on now, it was entirely up to Sylvia.

On the other hand, I only got a little advice from Tin, and then I went on a hands-on journey.

Even so, it was not entirely left to nature, but to a certain extent, the plan table was returned.

I will follow suit and ask Tin every time something goes wrong.

That's why I started farming, but two days after planting the seeds Tin gave me, Kaosuke was once again stunned.

"... uh? How did this happen?

"Hmm. I don't think I can think of anything Kouske has done."

Beside the amazing study aid, Floria was poking in with a calm face.

In front of them were sprouts of plants that looked good to the amateurs.

"No, it's been two days since I planted the seeds. It's normal. It's normal."

Certainly, depending on the state of the species, there will be buds in two days.

However, it can be said that it is very unusual for all species to come together uniformly.

"No, I don't think so.... well, if that's what Kouske insists."

Floria, who was staring at the state of the bud, replied with a stunned face.

However, it was Florian who was pushing into examinations at the usual pace, but somewhere different from usual.

The reason for this is that the slime is stirring around in front of Kaiseki and Florian.

"... after all, is this because of these guys?

"... what do you think? Isn't it too early to conclude?

Kaiseki and Floria looked at each other and tilted their necks.

Certainly it is unusual for all species to sprout in two days, but not at all.

Florian is right, it will be too early to decide on that alone.

In addition, I was wondering about Kaiseki who was looking at the field.

"Well done, I've only taken weeds and not sprouts."

Yesterday I was taking weeds in the fields to the extent that I could study.

I was still trying to pick up weeds with enthusiasm today, but those weeds have disappeared brilliantly.

"Where did you put the weed you took yesterday?

"I tried to throw it away later, but I kept it in one place."

"It had vanished brilliantly."

"That's the way it is."

Floria's gaze turned to the slime when she heard the examiner's reply.

In line with that, the examiner also saw a slime.

"I don't think I can tie anything to the slime, but as far as the results go, I think the slime did it."

Floria nodded at the words of the examiner, but another question arose.

"The question is, how does the slime recognize that it needs the bud that comes out?"

That's right.

Kaosuke and Floria nodded together and turned their gaze to the sprouts that were coming out beautifully.

Even if only the weeds taken by Kaiseki yesterday were cleaned up by slime in the evening, I don't know how they came out of the buds to distinguish them from those that require Kaiseki.

In these times, it is regrettable that there is no direct way to ask what the slime is thinking.

"... I can't help thinking about it forever."

Because there are too few materials to judge, I cannot give a clear answer.

Floria nodded at the words of the examiner who had concluded so.

I see.... as far as slime is concerned, this is often the case. "

Floria laughed bitterly because Sula has been doing the same thing since she started living in management.

That's right though. Well, I suppose it's a wonderful ecology of the slime.

Regarding the wonders of Slime, Kaiseki replied that there was no need to find out.

Florian, who was entirely in agreement with Kaiseki, stopped nodding at Kaiseki's words and turned to another topic.

"By the way, what are we going to do next?

In the first place, Florian is here with Kaiseki to help with the work.

However, the examiner turned his troubled gaze to Florian's words.

"No, I thought I'd take the weed. Because of this situation, we don't need it anymore."

As far as Kaiseki can see, all the fields planted with seeds are weed-free.

Everything that was scheduled for today is (probably) slime.

As Kaiseki looked around, he saw Sylvia approaching with a confused expression.

And when I saw the fields that Kaiseki was planning to manage, I nodded convincingly.

Again, is this the same for you?

"Ah, Sylvia says that means the situation is the same over there."

Sylvia's speech made her think of the situation, but the assistant turned out to be the face.

If we get here, we'll just have to figure out who did it but Slime.

"Somehow, when Kowske does something, something unexpected happens with it."

With emotion, Florian said so, and the examiner turned reluctant.

I've decided that I can't argue here.

Besides, this time, I can't help but deny it because it is Slime, who is a family member, rather than doing something directly.

"Isn't that good? I think it would be interesting to find out how far the slime can go."

She nodded reluctantly to Sylvia, who was beginning to rely on slime.

That's true though. I feel like it's getting different from the farming I was thinking about at first. "

As an examiner, I wanted to taste the joy of finally harvesting something that can be eaten after a lot of hard work, but I feel that if I leave it like this, I almost won't have to put my hands on it.

I'm not complaining, but I'm sure I feel lonely somewhere.

Floria laughed and looked at the study aid.

"If that's the case, I think you should instruct me not to do anything in some limited place?

"That's right. The slimes seem to be following Kowske's instructions."

Sylvia's words can be assumed to be correct, given that the slime has no hands other than where they are cultivated as fields.

From now on, I decided to do so. On this day, I made another field, and only my hands (?) I instructed the slime not to.

Later, the difference between the two would come true, but it was still a long time before the examiners knew about it.
