Time went by and I turned nine years old.

Partly because the Philosopher's Stone gave me more time to study effectively, and partly because I was appointed Deputy Emperor and wanted to do something for Eliza.

Little by little, I began to help my father rule his domain.

On this day, too, I came to a place called Psyche Village, about two days away from the mansion.

It's harvest season, and for the purchase of the wastage crops.

The surplus crops are piled up in the village fields and are sucked into bags.

I wonder what it is.

The village chief of this village, a man who called himself Danny, was greatly surprised.

This is the first time I've seen this, as this is the first time the village has had a good harvest since the Alec system was built (which is still embarrassing).

I magically stored it, otherwise I wouldn't have come alone.

"Nah, I see. ......

Danny was surprised but satisfied.

I saw the bag.

The amount of crops we had sucked into the magic bag and stockpiled permanently was quite a bit.

In a city of a thousand people, that's enough for a whole year.

Two years later, I was in charge of the purchase, partly because I was the one who conceived it.

That's a lot of money for two years.

That's great... after all, the nobles aren't like us. I didn't think you could do such a thing with magic.

Smiling at Danny, I handed him another bag - just a sachet with no magic effect.

"Here's your payment.

"Thank you Das

Danny opened the mouth of the bag to see what was in it - he was impressed in a different way.

Being in charge of the food stockpile, I've learned that farmers don't really have much opportunity for this kind of extra income.

A farmer with cows or chickens can earn a little milk or eggs, but a farmer with only fields can earn only once a season, at harvest time.

That's why your father's policy of purchasing surplus foodstuffs from the Duke of Carlisle was very welcome.

By the way, ...... is it good over there?

I pointed to a small mountain a short distance away.

It seemed to be potatoes piled high.

Oh, they're no good. Oh no, they're rotten.

"Is it rotten?

"Das

Danny said and approached Koyama, and I followed him.

When he came to Koyama's side, he took a potato and gave it to me.

I swear, they're rotten.

All crops grow at different times of the year, but when you harvest the most, you can't help but be impatient and wait until after they're already rotten.

"Oh, really. So you're throwing this away?

N-need to be a fertilizer. I'm going to let it rot and feed the soil.

"I see.

"We're running out of fertilizer these days, and that's another important asset, Das.

"Not enough fertilizer?

"Truly my lord and master Das.

Danny bowed to me again.

I don't know what he meant by that.

Das bought the surplus from the lord, and originally the surplus was left to rot and be used as fertilizer.

I see.

"That's why I'm screaming for more fertilizer. I'm secretly troubled because it won't be enough fertilizer before the next sowing.

"Not in time to rot?

"Das

Nodding Danny.

The look on your face is one of serious distress.

"So the next crop will probably be less, Das.

...... If it gets to fertilizer in time, will the harvest go up?

"That's up to you. ......

Why? And then he looked at me with a look on his face.

I thought for a minute.

"Hang on a second.

And said to Danny.

Use magic, the magic of instantaneous movement.

The body was pulled into the air, falling toward the sky at great speed 《、、、、、、、、、、、、》, culminating in a parabola, and then falling normally to the ground.

In an instant, I returned to Carlisle's mansion to find Angel and Calamity in the garden.

"Ah, Master Alec, you're back!

I'm home. Do you have Calamity to train with you again?

"Yes!

Ange nodded innocently.

''I'll continue to hone my healing magic and be able to heal my guardian dragon as well.

Well, good luck with that.

"Yes! Ehehe ......

When I patted his head as usual, Angier's eyes narrowed with happiness.

I'm sure you're going to be able to use enough healing magic to really break through Calamity's resistance at this rate.

Then you'll be the world's best healer.

After stroking him for a while, he spoke to Calamity to accomplish his original goal.

"Calamity, I'm sorry, but can you give me another nail?

"It's not a big deal, Lord.

Without any hesitation at all, Calamity broke a nail and gave it to me.

I took it and, using magic, made a magic storage bag as before.

"Thank you Calamity. Good luck Angel.

"Yes! Good luck with your work, Alec-sama!

The adorable Angel and Calamity, who has a warrior-like aura of 100% loyalty, saw me off and used instantaneous magic again to return to the fields of Psyche's village.

"Wow, where have you been, Das?

It's a bit. More importantly, who is the least magical person in this village?

"Magic Das? Then Vasudas.

Best?

"Ichiban Das

Danny nodded clearly.

Maybe because he got his living from farming, he didn't seem particularly concerned about his low magic power.

Okay, here's what I want you to have. Press your ten fingers here in order.

"Huh ...... Das?

Danny pressed his ten fingers on a point on the bag in sequence as I had instructed.

"Yep, that's it. Now this bag belongs to you.

"Haha, what's this at ......

Put one of those potatoes in there, and as soon as you do, you can take it out.

"You know, I'm not sure if it's a good idea to go to ...... or not! Das rotten in an instant.

"Yeah. Is it good as fertilizer?

"You know, when you put Das in ......, he starts to go bad, and then he goes bad right away.

Danny was excited to take them out one by one, putting the potatoes in and letting them rot.

The bags are exactly the same as my magic storage bags.

If a person with enormous magic power uses it, the flow of time inside will stop and the stockpile won't rot, but if someone with little or no magic power uses it, it will rot at a very fast rate.

I took advantage of that and gave it to Danny for fertilizer production.

There's plenty of time for fertilizer.

"Yes Das! Thanks Das! Now you'll get more and more of a harvest, Das.

Good luck.

"Aristocrats are the gods of the Wasps!

Thank you so much.

.

After this incident, I found out that not only Psyche's village, but also other villages did not have enough fertilizer in time thanks to the purchase of surplus, so I mass-produced sacks - fertilizer production machines - and distributed them to the farming communities.

The next year, the Duke of Carlisle's harvest was even higher, creating a little bubble in the countryside.
