Chapter 199: CH 199

The completed town in the savage lands


It’s been a few days since the concert took place in the Sanctuary concert hall. The music mania of the Sanctuary’s citizens continues to heat up, and Laeva and I are as busy as ever.

「Takumi-shamaaa!」
「Takumi-oniichaaan!」
「Oniichaaan!」

Cat Sith sisters Miri and Lala, Catkin siblings Wappa and Sara, Human sisters Colette and Shirona ran to me while I was resting in the mansion garden. The little girl trio jumped at me and clung on.

「What’s up guys?」
「You see, Lala wants to play music nya.」
「Sara too, Sara too!」
「Shirona wants to play the piano.」

The trio rubbed their head on me and pleaded.

「Wappa, you guys too?」


「Yup, I think that thing called a trumpet looks cool.」
「Miri likes the violin nya.」
「I want to try all sorts of them.」

It looks like the older siblings have awakened to music too. If these kids ask me, there’s no way I can say no, right?

「Okay. I’ll make instruments for you guys.」
「Yaaay! Thank you! I’m so happy-nya!」
「Oniichan, I love you!」
「Yaaay! Yaaay!」

Lala jumping for joy and Sara’s tail was swinging. With their goal achieved, the kids ran away in satisfaction.

「Your work has increased again, hasn’t it, Master(husband)?」
「You didn’t have to say it, Marnie.」

Marnie let out a chuckle as she poured me another serving of tea. Then, I asked Marnie something that suddenly came to mind.

「Hey Marnie. About Beastkin kids, do they have a school they attend?」

I know that Wappa and the kids weren’t in an environment where  they could go to school in. But, I wondered if Beastkin at a normal standing do about schools. In Volton, I’m pretty sure there are schools.

「Beastkin living in villages and small settlements do not have the opportunity to study in school. As such, apart from the children of merchants, nearly all the children are unable to read, write, and calculate.」
「It would be better to teach them literacy and calculation, huh. Maybe we should also build a school in the Sanctuary too.」
「The children in the Sanctuary have increased as well, I believe a school would be gratefully accepted.」
「We have so much land, so should we make one? Wait no, we don’t have a teacher.」

The residents of the Sanctuary have increased considerably, but there’s still too much land. Reserving space for building a school is no issue. If I get the help of the Dwarves for the school buildings, it can be finished in no time. But we don’t have a teacher that could teach students.

「I don’t want to hire from the three nations too much, but it’s not good to be biased with any one country either, right?」
「As you say. As it is, the members of the orchestra are mostly Elves and the conductors are also Elven maestros. As they have been drifting farther from Yggurle Kingdom’s lead, the other two countries likely do not find it pleasing.」
「Come to think of it, what do you feel about the town east of the Sanctuary being constructed by the three nations?」

I’ve heard that the construction of the tri-nation cooperative, while not like Wedgefort, was progressing at a considerably fast pace.

「I heard it was completed a few days prior. At present, they are holding meetings everyday, such as appointing the representative of each country, and selecting the name of the town.」
「Still, as you would expect from mobilizing multitudes of Earth mages, it was completed fast.」

Built to the east of the Sanctuary by Valkyra Kingdom, Lomaria Kingdom, and Yggurle Kingdom is a town meant to connect with the Sanctuary of the Great Spirits. I learned that this town is establishing embassies of the three countries, branches of large companies, and branches of various guilds.

「The Papeck Company seems to have opened a branch as well.」
「Uwaa, Papeck-san, he said to sell him a small bulk of wine, didn’t he?」
「If it’s wine, it appears they are now able brew a stable amount, so would it not be alright if it were a small quantity? The Dwarves appear to prefer stronger alcohol like whiskey.」
「Then I’ll have to show up at one point.」
「Indeed, I believe that would be good.」

In the end, because I was busy crafting the instruments, our field trip to the town will happen 10 days later.

 

The town built east of the Sanctuary is close enough that it can be walked within a day. While small, the fortress town is surrounded by ramparts, because I think they had no choice considering how it is located in the savage lands that is dotted with monster nests. Outside the walls, a farmland surrounded by a fence to ward off monsters was built, and we could already see many farmers working there. Around that area were the knights of the three nations and adventurers exterminating monsters.

「It’s a town comparable to Wedgefort, huh.」
「It’s likely because Elven Spirit Mages also participated in the construction.」

Today, the only one with me is Sophia. Everyone else is doing what they like at the Sanctuary. Laeva is working though. After observing the exterior, we purposely entered the town from the east gate. I thought it would be too conspicuous if we entered the town from the Sanctuary side.

Inside, the embassies and consulates of each nation and various guild branches were lined up on the wide stone-paved main street.

「……hey, you recognize this?」
「Yes, it’s just like Wedgefort, isn’t it?」

It would seems the town’s design was taken after Wedgefort’s. Sure, Wedgefort is a town I made from the ground up, so I do think it’s a well made town.

「Now then, how about we take a stroll while we search for the Papeck Company?」
「Very well.」

Sophia and I wandered the town bustling with merchants, adventurers, knights, soldiers, and craftsmen from the three country as we made our way to the Papeck Company.
