Why don't you build a village on top of the world tree

"The Anti-Cyrillic Department is disbanded."

Melmie listens to me and squeals.

I was coming to the branches of the clouds with Melmie and the other craftsmen.

Nearly two years after the Kubesta and other emerging village raids by Kyrilgiri, the countermeasures department was dissolved due to the lack of even eyewitness testimony.

It would be a reasonable time, since we also saw a single sedation of the question of the housing of refugees.

But we cannot completely ignore the threat of Cyrillic. The crusade didn't come true just because it wasn't witnessed.

One theory has the view that Kyrilgiri died of wild drooling because of the wounds that Gilica village caused him to carry out an interception battle at the villagers' outing. Even if he was dead on a world tree, there's no denying the possibility that Beant would discover and eat him before people did.

It was necessary to strike minimum measures because death was not confirmed, and it had been decided to set up a dedicated contact point for the Devil Bug Hunter Guild for the other decade.

Well, Takakus doesn't have a Demon Bug Hunter Guild.

Although there was something like a congregation of warbug hunters from the city gathering to exchange information, there was no proper guild to hire officials to buy and sell warbug materials, collect information on warbugs, and receive crusade requests.

Although there is a large Guild of Demon Bug Hunters in the city of Kattera, a half-day walk away, it is also significant that I, the founder of the Tacax, have taken on the settlement of the case concerning Demon Bugs with me.

At any rate, it is still rumored that I have worked on a par with the accountants of the Devil Bug Hunter Guild in Katella City among the Devil Bug Hunters on the north side of the world tree, because I have been able to represent most of the work that the Guild is supposed to do on my own. Since the bulk of crusade requests and research requests go to the Devil Bug Hunter Guild in Kattera City, the work I represent was not that much in itself.

That's why there was no Devil Bug Hunter Guild in Tacax City.

However, when it became necessary to install a countermeasure desk for Cyrillic Giri, the construction of the Guild Hall was started because of the inconvenience of being a city but not having a Warbug Hunter Guild.

With the emigration of refugees from the emerging village of Gilica, which consisted of only demonic bug hunters, to Takakus, the city's hunter population is also growing. I'm running out of hands on the boulder by myself, so this is a good opportunity.

"The development of the cloud layer has also progressed."

Says Melmie as she looks at the house across the street.

"At first, I thought it was this design, but when I took the house all the time, I felt lost in a different world."

All the dwellings in the branches of the Yunnan layer are occupied by Japanese-style architecture.

It's not a cluttered city that boils down to the architectural style of the entire world tree, like in the lower cloud layers, it's a town with a sense of unity.

It falls within the scope of Japanese-style architecture of things with some differences, such as a corner of the Takeya Mansion and a corner of the Numerous Buildings.

Because there are no tatami tatami, building materials floors are being studied and moisture-resistant floors are being developed utilizing snowworm hair and the like. It seems that there is no demand for the expensive, so it is only my personal research, although the progress is not fragrant.

The Japanese-style buildings that are here now are also uniformly wooden floors if you go inside.

"Do you also make Devil Bug Hunter Guilds in Tacax-style architecture?

Melmie points to Marcto's house and asks.

Japanese-style architecture

"Wahoo, I can't tell you what meaningless constructions they say. Takakus architecture is fine."

Japanese-style architecture has always been called Takax-style architecture.

Don't think it's time to give up.

"There are no exceptions to the architecture of the cloud-no-layer. Absolutely Japanese-style."

"Yes, yes, wahoo, wahoo"

Arrive at the building site and begin preparations immediately.

I'm going to build this Demon Bug Hunter Guild Hall in this building.

This building, famously home to the Horiuchi family, an important cultural asset of the country built during the Edo period, is an architectural style in Nagano prefecture characterized by slab loose cutter roofs and sparrows.

It has a large beam-to-beam structure combined with a roof decorated with freckles, making it look stylish.

The story is that it was originally an architectural style used for martial arts and luxury houses, so it may have inevitably been furnished with style.

As the hall of the Devil Bug Hunter Guild, the building with style is more suitable, so the main building was adopted.

"Well, let's get to work."

The artisans who replied move out.

Overall, the building will have a plan view close to the square.

Streets stretching from the front door are provided along one side of the square, and the basic form is to have three rooms in two rows in rooms such as the one that hits the living room and the one that hits the guest room.

Essentially, the room in the middle becomes a dark room with no sunlight in it, as it becomes an interval to pass through a row of ends of the demon cube and assign rooms to the remaining six.

Indeed, the living room should have been in the middle of the country's important cultural asset that it was the home of relatives of the immortal ghost man famous for his Takeda family minister.

"Street Earthbound always finishes with the Devil's Bug Nail, right?

"Do that. We'll all go to the common warehouse before noon."

Often used in place of stones and tiles, the Devil's Bug Nail was the ideal building material for use in the earth.

Use alternatives if you don't have the building materials you want. I'm doing it with that idea, so it's only Japanese-style, but I can't help it all.

Others have difficulty making soil walls because the soil is precious. As a result of searching for materials that can be substituted, we now use a mixture of objects that have crushed obsolete warthog armor and dried lime and tomato stems.

It was obsolete because of the gloss, but now that the crushing technology has improved, the unique gloss of the nail material has also become less noticeable. It is highly water resistant and can create the texture of the walls as many types of demon worms as possible. If combined, we can make even more varieties.

However, there is also a small amount of liquefied yarn in the bird eater spider due to the lack of sticky material. Due to the higher unit price, this soil walling tends to be a luxury building.

Japanese-style architecture without Takakus architecture still leaves room for improvement.

Nevertheless, I also feel that the Devil Bug material from the wall is perfect as a building for the Devil Bug Hunter Guild.

Well, it's not me who evaluates whether it's appropriate as the Devil Bug Hunter Guild Hall, it's the Devil Bug Hunters, the users.

When the evaluation was completed, I threw the evaluation out of my brain and went to work.

The Devil Bug Hunter Alliance was completed at the end of autumn when the snow became shiny.

In autumn as cold as summer is, and even winter, temperatures are dropping more and more.

While I was relieved to finish the construction before it snowed out in earnest, I was leading Billows and the former Gilica Village Chief to the completed Devil Bug Hunter Guild Hall.

Things are just for things, and this time I called two of the Demon Bug Hunters.

Billows and the former Gilica village chief all arm in front of the front door made for his wife. I think I'm going to say "good boys" or something when I stand side by side because I have thick arms that are both trained.

"It's the same unusual architectural style, but it's a structure that went into the hall. I don't hate you."

Billows says, the former Gilica village chief nods loudly.

"I've come to see the Devil Bug Hunter Guild everywhere, but it's a design that I can see at a glance that it's an Guild of Tacax Cities. I think so."

"Thank you. Shall we go inside then?"

Take the two of you and creep through the front door.

It is in the dirt in the street that immediately extends to the back. On his left hand was a window that lit up the earth.

A message board is set aside where information on the requisition form and the demon worm is going to be stuck out when we go back. Though nothing is being stuck out right now, there will be a call for Devil Bugs material and so on tomorrow. And for ten years, we will stick out a sticky piece of paper asking for information about Cyrillic in a prominent spot above.

"Each of the three obstacles on the right hand side comes from the front door, a room with a reception desk for requests and exchange of information, an office where officials carry out paperwork and, at the deepest end, a lounge for the Devil's Bug Hunter."

I'll explain, Billows opens the closest obstacle to the front door.

"Ha, you've got a lot of information."

At first glance at the room, Billows enters with his thoughts in his mouth. This place is a step higher than the earth, but I have no problem getting up on the earth feet.

It would also be inconvenient to ask the Devil Bug Hunter and visitors to take off one pair of shoes, which was in this form.

The former Gilica village chief also goes up and looks over the room.

"The lights come in through the window, and I can see the streets. Based on the size, are there four reception desks? If it's the size of a tack, it'll be just fine."

Former Village Chief Gillica is convinced, but Billows, who knows I'm aiming for a skyscraper, disagrees.

Billows looked at me and looked strange.

"The population will continue to grow. Enough?

"It doesn't have to be enough. This way, the contact is more than doubled."

I open the barrier to partitioning the office. Openness as if a whole wall had been removed.

It is a special attack on Japanese houses and the opening of rooms.

The size of the office room is doubled by adding it to the room where the reception has been held so far. If you add more contact points to your back alignment with obstacles that divide between them, you can multiply the number at once.

"Instead, there will be no more rest space for the Devil Bug Hunter, but there is no need to always make it inside the hall, and the hunter for the break is flowing naturally that way because if Takakus develops, he can become quite a coffee shop near here. You don't have a problem."

"I see. This is handy."

Billows nods as impressed as well.

Or that's why I'm planning to do the same for the ballroom at the Billows Inn in the Cloud-No-tier, where construction is postponed.

Beyond the obstacle I opened up, I plan to use it as an office, but I'm grounded for this gimmick. In other words, one step higher than the earth but one step lower than the others.

This is just in the middle of a square, a windowless space surrounded by obstacles to the three sides.

Billows glanced around slightly, pointing at the only wall.

"Why is it just a wall over there?

"Oh, there's a guest room across the wall."

Billows is convinced of my answer, but now the former Gilica village chief looks strange.

"Why do you need a guest room for the Devil Bug Hunter Guild?

"Use it for urgent requests or something. Later, when we know something else, we'll send out requests and information that will affect the price of the bug material."

A reception room is always provided for the Devil Bug Hunter Guild, which is installed in more than the city.

For example, like the crustacean building materials of the Branch Eater developed by the town of Hedgeway, they are used in cases where an urgent and consolidated number is required but the market is immediately affected. There must have been some other snowworm hunting lectures in these reception rooms that caused amateur demon hunters to wreck before.

Well, it's not usually used, and it's a room I've never crossed without.

"After that, don't even use it when the Founders make a request."

I would have sent out a request from the city of Cuttera regarding the yarn of the bird eater spider when the aerial corridor was being rebuilt, or something in the reception room.

"I see. You didn't know that because you're on the receiving end."

The former Village Chief Gillica says that, but I think Billows knew about it as much as the reception room existed.

I don't know, some young devil bug hunters have the upper hand. Sometimes they would have called if an urgent request had been made.

Open the barrier next to the office.

'Cause it's strictly ground-foot here.'

"I'm not coming in."

Billows glances inside as he flaunts his shoulders.

"It's pretty bright in here."

"There's a window. Besides, if you open the barrier between the streets and the dirt like this, you feel open."

"What about food?

"I won't let you out. If you want something to eat, go outside and eat. This is just a place to rest."

If I even serve food and beverages, I can't have a food store around the Guild Hall.

Return to the front door once to open the obstacle beyond the room where the request is received.

"What is this place?

"Armory. It's where we store the iron arrows that we release in an emergency."

For example, an emergency request is sent when a blue beetle is coming to the city of Tacax, or when a branch of a world tree is eaten by a branch eater. Hand over the iron arrows stockpiled by the city of Tacax so that participating Demon Bug hunters will not be reluctant to release them, as they will need expensive iron arrows to take a deep toll on the target demon bug.

This arsenal is where its iron arrows are placed, and it is also a kind of dedicated room that makes it clear that this is the Devil Bug Hunter Guild.

Billows goes up to the arsenal with his shoes off and points at the handicap.

"Maybe I should usually leave the obstacles that divide this place open. It's just right to impress the user with the Tacax defense and buy peace of mind."

"Yeah, I agree"

I answer Billows while I open the next barrier.

The reception room, which intersects the office room and the wall, in this case a suitable room to call the room, is a space where light from the outside plugs in, a room where you can view a small garden from the edge.

The room is not as large as the office, but thanks to the edges and the garden it is larger and more open than it actually is.

And the deepest room is the guild length room.

"Who's going to be the guild leader?

When Billows speaks of doubt, the former Village Chief of Gilica points to me.

"Well, that's the mayor, isn't it?

"I can't. Come on, let's get you out of my hands and build a guild. When I'm head of the guild, you're going down."

I can't get my hands off Billows because he has an inn too.

Therefore, we are to promote an old and experienced Demon Bug Hunter from the former village of Kidato to the rank of guild leader.

I'll explain, then slap the former Gilica village chief on the shoulder.

"By the way, the next guild leader will have you."

"... what?

"Learn well. Management, demonic worm ecology, emergency investigation methods and orders, that's all I can remember."

I've taught you everything, but no one's taught you as much detail as I do first.

That's why I persuaded an old demon bug hunter to say no because of his age because he would need time to learn.

"Maybe he'll teach you enthusiastically with a warworm hunter-like temper, so hang in there"

"Hey, hey, what is it, that? I wouldn't have heard of that back there if I had been called up to inspect the Guild Hall!?

"I didn't say that. Anyway, good luck."

I smile and turn my back on the former Gilica Village Chief.

Billows also laughed and slapped his shoulder and encouraged him, following me.

"Experienced seniors can teach me exactly what to do. I mourned all the inexperienced youths who made a village and failed. Thank you for that."

"That's not what I'm talking about!

"I've been through everything."

I wouldn't force you if you really didn't like it, but from the look on his face coming after you, it seemed like you were going to take this story.
