Thanks to the help of the two classes, the field work became even more lively and fun than usual.
Monaka and Kotone don’t mind getting dirty, but they are working hard at tinkering with the soil.
Then, Ma-chan and other members of the “Merchant Union” arrive.
“Leopin-kun! I came to help with the field work! … that? Is the field more lively? There were other people besides us who could help.”
“Oh, she heard the rumors and came all the way here, she may be a bit stiff for you guys, but I hope you get along.”
“Hehe! Leopin-kun has already surprised me so many times, I won’t be surprised by anyone else’s presence!
And there aren’t many things that would surprise me more than slapping Master Payper!”
Ma-chan, with her classmates in tow, rolled up her sleeves and headed for the field.
But as soon as they saw the guests spread out in the fields.
The Merchant’s Union fell like dominoes, all falling on their asses at once.
“Why, why, why are there people from Class 1-2 and Class 1-19 here?”
“And Monaka-sama and Kotone are here too!”
“I knew that the two of you were close with Leopin-kun, but I didn’t expect it to go this far. ……”
“Oh oh! What the hell is that !?
The two of them are promised to become “Princess Miko” and the “Great Saint” in the future …! “
“I can’t believe you’re working in the fields!!!!
The members of the Merchant’s Union roll further back and dexterously get into a kneeling position.
They looked up at me with a frightened look on their face, wobbling and shaking.
“Hey, Leopin-kun! No, Master Leopin!
Gosh, gosh, I’m sorry!”
“I don’t know, I didn’t know that Leopin-sama was capable of giving orders to Monaka-sama and Kotone-sama!”
“Please forgive me for my repeated rudeness…”
I was kind of surprised.
“Look up, everybody, and don’t get down on your knees, I’m just an unemployed guy, I’m not a big shot.”
“I’m sure it’s a lie! How can Monaka-sama and Kotone-sama take advantage of a mere unemployed person?”
“The only students who can talk to Monaka-sama and Kotone-sama at this school are the Sage and Brave ones!(If my memory serves me right, there is a class full of jobs like “Hero” or “Braves”)”
“No, Monaka and Kotone don’t change the way they interact with others based on their status or occupation, and they will treat everyone with open arms.”
I called out to them both.
“Hey, Monaka, Kotone!”
Those who are astonished, “Oh, that’s it !? Calling them like dogs …!?”
Far from worrying about Monaka and Kotone, they rushed to me with joy like a puppy.
“Monaka, Kotone, here are the guys from Class 1-9, the Merchant’s Union.”
When I introduce them, the members of the ‘Merchant Union’ get down on their knees even harder.
Monaka and Kotone sat on the floor beside Maachan, wondering what she was thinking.
“You’re all trying to thank Leo-kun, aren’t you?”
“‘Then let us join you.
I’m so grateful to you, Master, that even if I did it three times a day, morning, noon and night, it wouldn’t be enough.”
“And now, ladies and gentlemen, please join us!”
“Master, thank you for always guiding us!”
As Monaka and Kotone led the way, many men and women bowed deeply to me.
“Oh, my God. ……”
I’m scratching my head.
The wall of the house beside it began to shine like a gold screen again.

My base has finally become a ‘normal village’.
“But I’m the only one who lives here, and the others are guests.”
When I mumbled something, they protested.
“Kuhn!” and “Pyaa!”
“‘Sorry, sorry, you’ve been some fine resident.”
The next thing I knew, Mark and Tom were in a field.
Mark imitates Monaka and uses a rake to level the soil in the field, while Tom imitates Kotone and picks up dirt with a cat punch.
On more than one occasion, Mark and Tom would share the fruits of their hunting with me.
“But this is the first time you’ve helped me work like this.
Could it be that the effects of the base skill “Support for our family animals” immediately appeared?
If those two can work the fields, they could be quite an asset.”
I’m going to start crafting it into a reality as soon as I can.
There were two different ones I made, both simple wood crafts.
