Survival in Another World With My Master
Episode 250 - Winter Visit
The season is winter.
In the winter of this world, the snow did not fall as deep as in Japan in the original world, but it felt like a cold wind blowing up like trees. To be honest, the four seasons are clear. I was born and raised in Japan, and I am quite inadequate.
Well, it's probably good that it doesn't get too cold. Even though it won't be very cold, it seems that there won't be any frozen dead people because it will be cold to the extent that thin ice builds up in the frosted or stored water.
"How are you preparing for winter?
Silfi asks Merty with a serious face while I get into the magic tattoo I made with my craftsmanship. This is a situation where a beautiful brown-skinned elf with a crisp expression is telling a serious story in a tattoo containing citrus fruit. The unmatched feeling is terrible.
"Reports from all over the world say food and fuel stockpiles are adequate. Especially when it comes to fuel, Mr. Koske is very active."
"I cut so many trees that I could dream of before winter...."
The liberation army that took control of the kingdom of Merinard after a difficult time - and the newborn kingdom of Merinard hurried. It is the preparation for the winter.
As I said earlier, the world - or the Kingdom of Merinard - is not as snowy as winter. Sleeping outdoors without fire or blankets is cold enough to freeze to death, but a decent home, blankets, and plenty of firewood will help you survive the winter comfortably.
And who always prepared the firewood? It is a subservient who was used as a slave.
As far as I can tell, firewood production was overwhelmingly lower this year than usual. The cause is the liberation movement of the subhumans by the Liberation Army. The subordinates who were freed from slavery by the hands of the Liberation Army joined the Liberation Army, started farming on my farmland, worked as Liberation Army civilians, and started trading. The number of people engaged in simple manual labor decreased significantly compared to the usual year.
As a result, there were considerable problems in each area. Nobody chooses a less lucrative job than someone else who has a hard job.
It is also because of common sense under the Holy King's rule that it is natural to use a large amount of subhuman labor at cheap prices… In other words, the stereotype of "simple manual labor is a subhuman job, and its labor cost is very cheap" has been entrenched among people in the Kingdom of Merinard today.
Merti is committed to correcting it, but it hasn't worked yet.
"I'll be fine next year. I will punish you this winter."
Merty is smiling black. I haven't heard much about it, but it seems that I'm still using the mass-produced firewood to set up something for merchants and local leaders who are trying to use subhumans as a cheap workforce.
It's definitely not Roku, so I don't want to hear more about it. I won't be able to get a snake out of the snake if I suck at it.
"... suu"
Ira is sitting on my lap and lying down on her butt. Isla is very busy here. She is a genius sorcerer, a good alchemist, and at the same time a good sorcerer. Japanese black companies are also doing a bluish job of researching and developing various magic tools, formulating new medicines and precious and difficult medicines, acting as court sorcerers, and training backwards.
To be honest, I'm worried about my body, but I can't stop it because I'm motivated. Sometimes the battery runs out like this, so I can only spoil it at these times. I'll force you to rest next time.
"Why don't you guys just relax and live in peace?
"You don't like us and you're messing with us."
Merti challenged Grande's remarks as he put his lower body in a tattoo and wore a blanket. From the Grande's point of view, it seems foolish to argue among the tribes. There are many monsters in this world, and there are many lands that they control and cannot use. If you want to increase your national strength, you just need to open up a place like that.
Nevertheless, man and man cannot stop fighting. If I think I've stopped fighting, I'm preparing for the next one. Maybe Grande can't help complaining to all of us.
"By the way, I have an appointment today....."
That's how Sylphie wraps her feet around my toes. Well, I miss my skin when it's cold and free in winter.
"Because children are a gift from God. You don't have to hurry, I think."
Ellen murmured while peeling off the citrus peeled in front of me. Sure enough, it's in my usual luxurious Virgin costume, but now that I'm used to it, no one but me cares about it.
I see. Winter is long. "
Yeah, that's right.
That's what Sylvie and Ellen are looking at me for. So you're telling me to do my best, right? I understand, but I want you to take care of it. Abdominal death may be a man's dream, but it's no good dying without seeing his grandson's face or even his own.
"Hmm? The day is still high, but it starts? Then I'll have a concubine."
The laid-back Grande raised her face and smiled like a glow. No, it's been a little while since the sun was so high.
"That's right... I'm almost done with my work today, isn't it?
"That's right...."
Ah, speaking of which, I think I had an appointment with Serafita or Doriada.
Put Isla down on her lap and I'll run... this is it!?
Don't run away.
Somehow I woke up holding my clothes tightly. Yes, it's packed. It's packed. No, it's impossible to get away from Sylvie and Merty at this close range without Ira catching me.
"If you don't like koske, I won't force you..."
"I don't hate it."
It's not that I don't like it. I'm just afraid of what happens tomorrow from this hour. I wonder if it dries up and makes me feel like a mummy.
"If you have to, you just have to drink a little of your concubine's blood."
"There is also a miracle of recovery."
I don't know if that kind of doping is okay... but I was dragged to bed without wasting resistance.
