TDADP chapter 272: Curator
"Then I'll be away for a while, so I'll leave it to you"
"I leave it to you!"
Namari imitates Yuu.
"By the time leader returns, we'll show you how to capture 『Bewitching Tree Garden Labyrinth』"
"Leave the mansion to Tin"
Flavia and other slave maid apprentices appeal only to themselves and complain with their eyes.
"......I'm a super genius magician, so don't worry"
"You can't really follow me, right?"
Marifa, who always whispers, confirms with Lena. This is the fourth time.
"......I have something to do. Believe in your older sister"
Marifa, who usually replies immediately, looks at Lena with anxiety.
"……Like I said, I'm fine"
"Is that so"
Marifa sighed a little and she said nothing more.
"How long have you been here?"
He intended to ignore it, but Yuu asked Joseph lying on the sofa.
"Ah, is it annoying?"
"Your existence"
"Huu......I'll skip it"
Unlike Lena's time, a vein appears on Marifa's temples.
"Is it something you care about? Or is it something you want to say to me?"
Was it an unexpected word? Joseph has an embarrassingly difficult face, but he sticks out his lower lip in a slightly deceptive manner. He has an unpleasant face that makes people irritated.
"Hey!? Tin, stop it"
Fearing Marifa's wrath, Tin pushes Vanamo in front of her like a shield.
"Master, let's eliminate"
"No, good. Tin"
"Yes, master"
"Let Joseph do as he likes while I'm away"
"Eh, but Joseph-sama throws his pants off all over the place, right? The beard is not properly cared for and dirty and he does flatulence and he also smells"
"By the way, my mouth and feet don't smell."
"Hey!? It's an overstatement!"
All are facts. Ignoring the protesting Joseph, Yuu dives into the gate created by space-time magic.
"Everyone is going~"
"Tin, do you know something?"
"I'm going!"
Nina and the others follow.
-------------------------------------
"Ah"
Yuu connected the gate to the village square, not to the mountain castle of the Nameless kingdom.
"Come on! King!"
"There are also Nina-neechan and Mari-neechan!"
"Namari-chan, welcome back"
"There are also Ran and Koro!"
"What? It was exactly what Jii-chan said"
Children were waiting for Yu and his friends to return to the square. And in no time, Yuu and his friends are surrounded by children.
"Hey"
"King, everyone was waiting eagerly. Then, I´m here......"
"Mauno-dono, wait! Don't run away!"
"I'm in trouble with Rubanov-dono and Mauno-dono. I have no choice but to bring them back here"
Yuu glares at the chiefs who would have leaked Yuu´s schedule to the children. The chiefs disappeared from the plaza in a hurry to escape from Yuu's line of sight.
"They can't help it"
"Master, welcome back"
Russ kneels in front of Yuu and greets him. Jumping over his back like a leapfrog, Inpika jumps at Yuu.
"King, what about souvenirs?"
"Inpika! Don't use me as a springboard!"
Inpika looks up while clinging to Yuu's neck.
"I would have brought a lot of them the other day"
"It's different! It's not that, it's the book. You didn't forget it, right?"
"Ah......I made that promise. Russ, are you able to make a copy?"
"All without delay"
Paper is a precious item and it is not uncommon for children's picture books to cost several silver coins. Yuu ordered Russ to duplicate the book so that as many children as possible could enjoy it.
"This is a copy"
Russ takes out hundreds of picture books from the item pouch. A loud yellow voice is heard from the children in front of the pile of picture books. And, among such children, there was a onr who was watching with flickering eyes at Yuu since earlier. High Dryad Hisui.
"Hisui"
When Yuu calls her name, Hisui smiles happily, but she doesn't move. Nina and the others wonder, 「What's wrong?」, but Yuu soon understood the reason.
"It's a hassle. Curator Hisui...you´re sure I´m coming"
"Yes!"
It's a very energetic reply.
"This book should be managed by Hisui, the curator of the library"
"Understood!"
Yuu entrusted the management of the library built using the big tree to Hisui, who had always had time to spare. It's not a particularly important job, but it was important for Hisui to be appointed by Yuu.
"Hisui-neechan, I want to read a book"
"We too"
"I'm still not good at it, so Hisui-neechan shall read it"
This time Hisui is surrounded by children.
"It's okay. But at the library, please call me curator. Also, eating and drinking is prohibited at the library"
Well, with all her heart, Hisui explains to the children the rules of the library.
"Okay! Curator!"
"Curator Hisui"
"Curator! Curator!!"
Children who don't know anything call the mysterious 「Curator」 call in a series while running around Hisui to see what is fun.
"Hisui looks happy"
Nina naturally smiles when she sees Hisui skipping among the children.
"Nina and the others will get a job too"
"Leave it to me"
"Please tell me anything"
"Nina trains those who are training together with Kuro. Marifa visits the farm and the orchard and reports to me later"
"I understand"
"Understood"
As soon as Nina and Marifa reply, they take action. The remaining Namari and Momo shined their eyes in anticipation, waiting for Yuu's instructions.
"Odono-sama, what about me and Momo?"
"Ah......Namari and Momo are doing paperwork with Russ"
"Th, That"
Russ, who thought he would have time with Yuu for the first time in a long time, was shocked by babysitting Namari and Momo.
"Okay! Russ, let's go"
"Namari, wait. Don't pull my robe!"
Pulled by Namari and Momo, Russ disappears in the direction of the mountain castle.
"King, the Big boar and Udon deer released in the west forest seem to be breeding more than expected and even the crops are being damaged"
A beastman man reports to Yuu the damage to crops caused by demons and animals.
"If so, do your best to get rid of it. Do you know that if you leave it alone, you will be able to eat it?"
"That's right, but......"
"I think there are people who I brought here the other day"
"Do you mean the ex-slave you brought?"
"If they haven't assigned a job yet, they can go hunting"
"Okay. They were so noisy that they wanted to help the King, so it's just right. Especially the female elf woman――Zenobia is making a noise by requesting a bow, can I give it to her?"
"Can't you decide if you don't ask me about that? Decide yourself"
The male beastman and those around him smile with a troubled face. It is Yuu who has taken over the slaves, which are a negative legacy of Balue in the first place. Slaves are the property of the Lord, which most nations allow by law. And Yuu is the king of the Nameless kingdom. It can be said that it is unavoidable for the residents of the Nameless Kingdom to hesitate to use the slaves owned by Yuu without permission.
"Is there enough for housing and furniture?"
"Yes, that's okay. Excessively from the King――nothing"
When Yuu glares at him, the male beastman hurries and stops his words.
"In the next few days, there will be a deal between the merchants and Morbel Kingdom. Tell the chiefs to prepare"
"Understood"
"Don't say it to the kids, because it's noisy to have them follow me"
"""Wahahaa"""
The villagers laugh when they see Yuu with a disgusted expression.
"What's wrong?"
"No, nothing"
Yuu looks sideways at Hisui and others as if they were listening to the current conversation. Fortunately the children didn't seem to notice. Yuu was relieved and he left the place without the children noticing.
---------------------------------------
"You don't have to bother me"
"……So"
In the living room of Yuu's mansion, Joseph and Lena were talking about something. It's a rare combination that you don't usually see.
"Lena-chan, are you going somewhere?"
Tin, who is cleaning, finds Lena trying to go somewhere and calls out.
"......Revenge"
"Revenge?"
With that said, Lena flew away on her Mithril's broom.
