Chapter 192: CH 192

 The Sanctuary brimming with life


After returning from Table Mountains, we released the small fish, aquatic plants, and aquatic bugs into the reservoir and the waterway, and let the rabbits loose in the grasslands.
Squirrels, small birds, and reptiles were released into the forest and copses.
In addition, worms and insects such as earthworms, centipedes, and beetle larva have been released all over the vast land, from the grasslands to the forests and copses.
Kaede seems to have let her underlings do as they please within the Sanctuary.

「The strength of the low and mid rank Spirits defending the Sanctuary is stronger than you thought, isn’t it? If it’s like this, the forest and grasslands wouldn’t be ruined even if the plants and animals multiply. If you really think about it, as we Great Spirits have manifested, even an absurd matter would be alright, wouldn’t it?」
「What you just said, I would have liked it if you said it sooner.」

Undine stated such while we were checking the state of the Sanctuary which had begun increasing in lifeforms, but if that had been the case, I could have brought them in without worrying about all sorts of things.

After that, we released various kinds of birds, mice, snakes, horned rabbits caught from the forests and plains in the savage lands into the Sanctuary.
The Elven people have been told that they could hunt rabbits too if they get the OK from the Spirits.
At the top of the food chain in the current forest is the Thunder Eagle.
Butterflies fluttered about on blooming flowers of various colors that were also the dwelling of the Faeries.

Then we released carnivorous monsters, such as Wild Cats and Green Foxes, into the grasslands and forest. According to Dryas and Undine, land is encroached by miasma by the activity of monsters and henceforth turns into a monster nest. However, the Sanctuary has a high purification ability. Far from encroaching the land, the monsters are even purified, so the aggressiveness of monsters is suppressed.

「Even so, it does not mean that it is absolutely safe, so do complete simple barriers over the residential areas, okay?」
「Yep, well, I was already thinking of doing that much anyway.」

Even though it’s a deer monster, the Blade Deer is dangerous, so we’ll be letting loose the slightly smaller Trihorn Deer. Once they multiply a bit, we’d have to consider catching a monster that preys on the Trihorn Deer.

Deer deforestation had become a problem in Japan, but Dryas said that her familial spirits have high forest restoration capabilities so it would be fine.

「If so, we don’t need a monster that preys on Trihorn Deer?」
「That would go against nature’s providence.」
「Ah, yeah, right.」

The captive pair of Trihorn Deer jumped out of the Subspace and ran away.

「The deer-type monsters will suffice for now.」
「About the birds, we will adjust the Sanctuary’s barrier so they may pass, so I believe they would increase naturally.」

Dryas and Sylph said that we could stop catching and releasing monsters, plants, and animals into the Sanctuary for now.

「But even bird-type monsters would be dangerous if something like Sophia’s tamed Thunder Eagle comes, you know.」
「We won’t let monsters pass even if they are birds. Isn’t that obvious?」
「Yeah, you’re right. My bad.」

Sylph looked at me like I was awfully stupid. I’d get it if it came from Undine or Dryas, but when Sylph says it, I can’t accept it.

Now that hunting is possible in the forest and copses, the Beastkin and Elves are delighted. The fact that meat can now be secured from within the Sanctuary is a big deal.
With dwarven-crafted bows, the people specialized at hunting in forests and grasslands emerged.
Since Mermaids fish, the Elves and Beastkin hunt, adding that to fact that the farming is doing well, it would be best to build a storehouse for food reserves.

And so, while doing residential construction, waterway and sewer establishment, land cultivation and irrigation servicing, as well as road maintenance in the Sanctuary like always, I had a thought. Because Kaede and Sophia have tamed spiders and eagle monsters, wouldn’t it be good if I was able to tame a monster that can manage the grasslands and the forest? Well, Kaede’s might not have been tamed though. It slipped my mind, but Kaede herself is a monster.

「I wonder if a wolf-type monster would be good.」
「Why this all of a sudden?」

Sophia asked about my sudden unrelated mumblings during construction work.

「Err, I was just thinking, wouldn’t it be a great idea if I could tame a familiar that I could leave the management of the forest and grasslands to? Wolves in particular would act with a pack, be they monsters or beasts. If I tame an alpha male, it’d be the same as getting a whole pack.」
「Well, certainly, a wolf-type monster will be more than enough to deal with the rabbit and deer-type monsters currently in the Sanctuary, so I do believe it is a good idea, however………… my Gloam is here.」
「So you named it Gloam, huh. That Thunder Eagle of yours. Still, wouldn’t it be too much for Gloam, one bird, to do? And the time it would be with you would decrease too.」
「That won’t do. Let us tame wolf monsters.」

It feels like Sophia’s character is wavering. Oh well, time to go look for a wolf.
