Chapter 79: CH 52.1

How can animals with tails often forget the existence of something that’s part of their body?

I was thinking about that while watching the blue dog at my feet chasing around the tail it could see at the edge of its sight.

This blue dog is named Gif and is loved by everyone at the Magical Schenker Group headquarters as a mascot.

Just the other day, Pickles happily told me “He licked my hand when I touched him.”.

On Schenker Street in front of the headquarters, many slaves are moving around today in preparation for the upcoming Fall Festival. The preparation is progressing smoothly.

A prototype drum was already in the tower and around it were slaves that were practicing songs and dancing with great enthusiasm.

「Master, this is the under-the-table ledger.」

「Yeah」

Chicken, who was wearing a purple long-sleeved one-piece dress, brought me the sales record of the artificial magic crystals and flipped it to check.

It is something that should never be seen by anyone so the profit is smaller than I expected because of the cover-up we’re doing for it.

Still, I can’t help but laugh because we made up half of our annual profit with it.

It’s money we can’t show up front but we have plenty of ways to spend it.

「Pisquez-sama said we should increase the supply more.」

「Don’t mind what that butler is saying. However, even though he’s old, he knows what to do.」

「Are you sure?」

「Yeah, it’s alright. What do you think will happen if we immediately give him the moment he asked?」

「He’ll be happy?」

「He won’t. If you scratch your stomach, you will not be able to sleep because you’ll be worried about what will come next.」

「Huh?」

「Listen here, Chicken, don’t do something even if you can only do it by giving it your all. You’ll end up giving it your all until the day you die. 」

「Is that a noble’s lesson?」

「It’s a corporate slave lesson.」

「Corpo what….?」

Perhaps I said something she doesn’t understand.

Well, it’s a nonsense from a dead man.

It would be better if she will never understand it for the rest of her life.

I looked back at the documents and suddenly, a strong wind blew in through the window that ruffled my hair.

I shook a little.

It has become cooler now.

I can’t go in the pool anymore given this cool weather.

「How are the slaves doing these days?」

「They are fine.」

「Are they having trouble finding a place to play?」

「Many of them were disappointed that they couldn’t play in the pool anymore but they would catch a cold if they went there now.」

Right.

Pools are really a luxury item because they are only available in summer.

I don’t even know why elementary schools and junior high schools in my previous world maintain those things.

How to utilize it now…..

Right, how?

Water, water….

Swimsuit….black….white….bikini…..no no.

Water, water…..it’s currently fall…..and fall is the season of swordfish…..swordfish is a fish…..

Fish?

Speaking of fish, we can go fishing.

「Chicken, have you ever tried fishing?」

「Fishing is something you do in the sea. I’ve read it in books.」

「That’s right. We can’t fish in the river.」

「The monsters in the water are extremely dangerous. Every year, peddlers’ horses get dragged into the river.」

「Would you like to try if you could?」

「No, I can’t even imagine….」

「Is that so?」

Even if there is a fishing culture in Torquiva, Chicken won’t do it because she’s an indoor type.

Even so, I would like to give it a try.

-0-

And so, Laura-san and I went to the fishing pond, which had been the former swimming pool.

We brought around 10 gehageha from the aquaculture farm here. I also made a pump to supply oxygen to the fish.

Several logs had been placed in the water to provide hiding places for the fish.

In order to make it look like a fishing pond, a board was placed over a scaffolding that was built in the pool.

Other things will come later.

I wonder if it would be better to place some aquatic plants?

Well, if anyone asks me, I’ll say gehageha is a macho carp. It should be able to live in any environment.

「W-what do you,, think about it now…..?」

「Thanks. I think it looks great. I’ll ask the farmers to take care of this place.」

「A-as you wish…..」

The silver-haired fishkin with long bangs slowly left. Laura-san and I held up our fishing rods.

You can’t find any fishing rods for sale so Laura-san made it herself.

At first, I was the one making it but she took over when I’m halfway through the fishing rod-making process.

She is from a port city and she seems to be very particular about fishing.

「It’s been a while since I have fished. I often went fishing on my father’s boat back in my hometown.」

「I have a little experience so please teach me.」

「Leave it to me.」

By the way, the hooks are also custom-made.

Since no one dared get close to the rivers in this area, no one will fish.

Until we started farming fish, even muddy river fish was considered a luxury cuisine.

I never thought it would increase that much though.

Anyway, I put Laura-san’s special stinky bait on the end of the hook and threw it in the shade of a log.

「Look, fishing is a game of patience. No matter how many fish you don’t catch, don’t be impatient. Once your chance comes, take it.」

「Yeah!……what the, areh? A bite!」

「What! Already!?」

A gehageha bites the bait immediately.

I pulled the rod hard but the force was so strong that I couldn’t pull it.

I cast a strengthening spell on the fishing rod since it’s already begun making a creaking sound.

「Uwooooooo!!」

「Weaken the fish! Pull in the direction it’s pulling!」

When I pulled the rod as Laura-san advised, the fish ran in the opposite direction.

When I pulled the rod in the direction the fish was going, it ran in the opposite direction again.

I did this over and over but the fish showed no sign of weakening.

On the other hand, after a few minutes of fighting, my arms are already sore, my back is aching, and I feel like I’ll be dragged into the water.

I used my healing magic to recover but this seemed a little too much for a fish.

Just as I was starting to get fed up, Laura’s hand came over mine.
