Chapter 65: CH 65

Bugs Have it Too

The store’s interior is bustling with children.

「Ooh… amazing.」

The amount of toys had caused me to leak out my admiration. There are cute dolls in the shape of horses and birds, balls of various sizes… they even have stilts.

「Oya? Is Kuishinbo-chan  interested in the retro toys?」

Pururu talked to me while I was looking at the stilts. I’ve played with stilts quite often when I was a kid… how nostalgic. However… right now isn’t the time to play around.    

「Un, well… another time. Today is for the golem, let’s go.」

「Fumu, then the corner for golems is… over there.」

It seems that Riot had already gone to see the golems. Are you a kid! ? … He is a kid.

As we get closer to the golem corner, more and more toys are imbued with magic. When magic power passes through them, the light sticks and music boxes glow in various color. There are also cat and dog shaped toys that move in a predetermined motion.

「Ooh~, this is quite… amazing」

From awhile ago, all I’ve been saying is “amazing”, but… it is the truth so it can’t be helped. Even if inside I’m an ossan, I can’t keep my excitements down. A toy store is such a place!

「Ahh, here it is. We’re here.」

「Uoo… amazing, it’s so popular?」

Only this corner… is another world.

There are golems of various sizes. Those that are cool and those that are cute. There are also those that have a funny appearance, yet cute… the range is abundant.

「It’s amazing right? The most popular toy currently is the Hobby Golem.」

Pururu spoke in a excited tone.

「And, the competition for superiority among Hobby Golems… 『Golem Masters』 is also very popular!」

…Wow, such a fervent speech that even made my eyes open. As expected of someone who would become a golem craftsman in the future and make a living! As expected of someone who had said that.   

「There are already people who make a living from the Hobby Golem tournaments… Kui~hihihi! It’s so thrilling!」

… She got so excited, her eyes are gone! ? Come back!

I gave her a chop to the head, at a 45 degree angle.

「Kyan!」

I heard a cute scream.

「…ha! ? Oops, I lost myself… my bad.」

「It’s fine, more importantly… we should do something about that.」

At the end of their sight is the figure of an excited Riot. It’s not like I don’t understand that feeling, but… don’t go around shouting「So cool!」 or 「Amazing!」Isn’t it embarrassing! ?

…Ah. This… I feel like I can understand the feeling of a mother.

「Riot, I made you wait. Is there anything that’s caught your interest?」

「Well… there are too many and I can’t decide! Uwah… amazing!」

Oiiii… don’t start drooling. I would understand if there were delicious dishes right in front of you though…

「Well it’s not unreasonable… starting from the basic parts, there are also various option parts. Different materials and hardness, limited parts made of rare materials… all of these are intriguing.」

「Ahh… I understand! Even if it is just once, I’ve wanted to play with this!」

For some reason… I feel like the distance between Riot and Pururu’s heart had suddenly disappeared. It’s not an uncommon thing for this to happen when people of similar interest meets.

「Now then, let’s… achieve our original purpose.」

To be honest, as long as it can protect Peachy-sensei’s bud… any golem is fine. It doesn’t have to hurt the Wiggle Lad. It just has to… change its direction and return it to the grass.

Because even bugs are living beings. If it is hurt, it’d be painful… and that’d be sad. Therefore, as long as the golem can follow instructions… anyone is fine!

「Hmm, Kuishinbo-chan is a beginner so… a basic set should be fine?」

「Hou… the basic is important and there doesn’t seem to be anything strange about it.」

「Instead, it is El’s speech that’s strange.」

Riot and I are beginners, so we decided to buy a basic set. The price was, one large gold coin.

… It was quite expensive.

「Thanks for the patronage! 」

A large brown man with a skinhead with an iconic stern face, it is the children loving manager, Bobby.

Without an exception, he would respond to children with a smile… but his smiles are scary and is thus a pitiful person. However, the children that come here already know him, so they’re not scared. Isn’t that great? Manager.

I had paid for myself, Riot, and even Pururu. You can praise me for my generosity.   

I immediately headed towards the vacant lot behind Healer Association.

「Arrival!」

On my way here, many passersby smiled when they saw me, but I don’t mind! Kyu! Kyu!  

「Hee… so the back of the Healer Association is like this.」

「It’s just a vacant lot.」

Usually no one except me would come here, but currently Riot and Pururu are also here.

「Is that Peachy-sensei’s bud?」

Riot found the bud that is growing nicely in the sunny area.

Exactly! That is Peachy-sensei’s bud! !

「And… that would be the Wiggle Lad?」

Pururu said that while pointing to the caterpillar that is distinctively green.

Exactly! That is…

「Whaaaaaaat! ? It came out again! ! Early! It’s too early! ? You can take your time, you know! ! ?」

The Wiggle Lad, headed straight towards Peachy-sensei’s bud.

「Li… like I’d let you!」

In order to stop it, I started to run after it… and fell.

「Mukyuu! ? … Muaaaaaah! I won’t make it! ?」

Riot quickly ran out and… kicked Wiggle Lad away.

「Wh… what did you do! ?」

I hurriedly got up and picked up Wiggle Lad. It is twitching… a serious injury. I calmed down and cast heal on it.

「Fuu… that was dangerous. Just a bit later and it would’ve been too late.」

「Why, did you heal it?」

Riot asked with a puzzled face. You… don’t understand what you just did?

「Oii… even bugs have a life. It’d hurt if it is kicked, and it can die.」

「But… it is a pest that tried to eat Peachy-sensei’s bud.」

True, I’d be troubled if that happens… and I bought a golem for that.

However, it is for our selfish convenience to label Wiggle Lad as a pest. Even he is just eating in order to live. For the most part, I won’t think about killing other creatures other than to eat it. That is just your ego! Is what I might be told, but… that is a rule that I decided for myself.

「That is something that we decided. He is just eating in order to live. That’s why, I thought of using a golem to chase it away.」

「But… 」

Riot doesn’t seem to be convinced.

「This guy… is living. It has life.」

I showed Riot… the Wiggle Lad that is now energetic in my hands.

… Ah, it got angry and stuck out its horn.

「Loot at this! Wiggle Lad-san is angry! Quickly apologize! You should! … Apologize!」

「Uu…」Riot winced. Eventually, he gave in and apologized.

「So… sorry.」

Hearing that, Wiggle Lad retracted its horn.

「It forgives you! Wiggle Lad is a big-hearted person! !」

Pururu who was watching the situation started laughing and giggling.

「Nfufu… Kuishinbo, no… that is a very Saintess-like idea. I understand what you’re saying. But you sure are trying to do something really difficult.」

「And that’s where the golem comes in.」

It is easy to kill, but… because I think that it is no good, so it can’t be helped.

… It’s no good to kill. Killing apart from eating.

「Well… alright. Then, should we make our golem now?」

「Uwoo! I’ve been waiting!」

「…Rai, you’re too excited.」

And finally, it is time for us to make our golem! In the end… what type of golems would we make?
