Chapter 288
I tried practicing magic before making the aquaculture pond .
Even the kittens and lobsters can use them .
I’m sure I can do it too .
I was taught by Loo before and she told me that I have no talent… .
So what, I’m motivated!
……
It’s not like I’m jealous of those kittens and lobsters .
After making sure that there’s no one else around, I concentrate .
Hnn?
… . . Ooooohhhh!
I-I can feel power .
I feel like I’m finally going to do it!
I recited the incantation that Loo taught me before .
「Manifest before me and obliterate my enemy! Fire arrow!」
……
…………
Did I recite the incantation wrong?
It has been a long time after all .
Hahaha .
From the shade of a tree, I noticed several kuros watching over me .
When did you arrive… . ah, you probably followed me since I entered the forest to make the new pond .
Then I looked straight at them, they averted their gaze quickly .
This is so embarrassing so let’s end the magic practice today .
Let’s take care of the aquaculture pond .
I can make a waterway from the reservoir but it will overflow .
Let’s dig a drainage channel towards the river .
Let’s make a three-fold bamboo fence in order to prevent the lobsters from escaping .
The super tiny ones might be able to escape but that’s acceptable .
The fences are now arranged at the outer perimeter of the pond .
That will do for now .
Before adding water and the lobsters in… .
I’ll try to try it myself .
The size of the aquaculture pond is 25 meters on all sides .
I thought about various things regarding the depth so I thought of making it 1 meter .
If it’s too shallow, they will easily be meddled like with what happened with the kittens .
However, there are partitions at the bottom of the pond . They are about 50cm deep and are 1 meter in every direction .
Once it is time to drain the pond, we can use those 1 square meter partitions as a place to catch .
Walking here is difficult because of the partitions .
My foot hit them .
Therefore, I think it is a bad idea to get in here .
I told that to the kuros who were watching me on the log fence .
Don’t look so lonely .
I know .
I’ll be out soon .
After opening the flood gate, let’s go to the pool .
It’s hot .
The pool is so popular this year .
Stalls run by the oni maids are lined up .
Shaved ice and… . stewed meat?
It’s hot .
Let’s get in the pool .
… . .
What are Tier’s golems doing at the pool?
There are five, two-meter tall golems… . they are not swimming but walking side by side… .
Ah, they are making the water flow .
Indeed, since there’s a lot of people, there won’t be any flow .
However, they are also driving the pool users away .
Well, I guess it’s not that much of a problem .
My swimsuit is the orthodox trunks type .
Zabuton made it .
Even if I call it a swimsuit, it feels like it is made of water-repelling material . As for its main functions, it will not get transparent when I enter water, and even if it gets wet, it won’t stick to your body .
It is embarrassing if others see your important parts .
I changed my clothes into a bathing suit in a hut near the pool .
Then, enter the small pool near the pool .
There are two small pools . The first one is not for swimming but for body cleaning .
The second one is the disinfection pool .
I consulted Loo before and have her make an antiseptic like solution .
It will be scary if there’s an outbreak of an infectious disease .
Maa, even if there’s no such thing, I hear that it will be alright since you can just protect yourself using your own magical power .
Is that so?
Well, there might be children with little magical powers and… . don’t look at me .
For instance… . Gutt’s daughter?
Ah, she doesn’t have any problem with her magical power level .
I’m sorry if I offended you .
Please think of the disinfection pool as something that calms me down .
Before entering the pool, you should warm-up .
Then, slowly enter the water and have your body adapt .
Just jumping in the pool is a mistake .
………
Fuh .
「Village chief, excuse me but, can you move? This is a flowing pool . 」

It is .
I was too relaxed walking .
The next thing I knew is that the board riding wine slime was passing by me .
Looks elegant .
The holy maiden is chasing after it while holding a moderate size log .
That log… . is that supposed to be a floating device?
Also, she’s wearing a considerably bold swimsuit… . is that alright?
TN: I demand an illustration .
I don’t think that is a suitable swimsuit for someone with the title of holy maiden… .
Well, it seems like no one thinks it is strange .
Serene mind serene mind .
Youko is also in the pool with a bolder swimsuit .
Serene mind serene mind… . areh?
「Why are you in your human form?」
「My magical power has recovered . 」
She looks great in her swimsuit but, why is she wearing a towel around her hair?
It looks like she’s taking a bath .
Maa, there are a lot of similar people so I won’t point it out .
But I have to point out the alcohol she’s holding .
「Don’t go into the pool with that . 」
「I won’t get drunk with this much . 」
「You won’t but what if other mimics you?」
「… . right . Indeed, I understand . 」
Youko is surprisingly obedient .
If you properly tell her the reason, she will give in .
After Youko passes by, the next one is… . . gran Maria hovering over the water in a swimsuit .
You are still training? It looks like she’s walking on water .
Forward, retreat, skip .
She’s dextrous .
However, she’s doing that on the pool so there surely be others who’ll get in the way… .
Ah, she’s using them as obstacles .
I see .
… . .
If you look around, the pool is full of females, children, and kuros .
So that’s why Gran Maria’s obstacle training can be done .
… . .
What happened to the dwarves?
The lizardmen too?
They will be drinking by the pool in the evening so they are working hard now .
I see .
… .
I avoid the obstacle training of Gran Maria .

Hey, I already avoided you, why are you approaching?
Ah, the obstacles are moving around too .
Oh, how can you trip in the air?
I look around and feel like their eyes are looking at me . What are they planning?
Why do they look like they’ve been liberated?
Hold on, I beg you…
Ah, don’t .
The women surrounded and embraced me .
Ah, I can’t…… . uoohh, what terrible power .
I can’t pull away from them .
Ah, soft .
N-now that it has come to this… . children, where are the children!
Form a barrier around me please!
After going around the pool, I get out because I’m strangely tired .
By the way, the place around me is called purupuru zone since I’m surrounded by the kuros . They even protect me against water splashes .
Ah… .
From the stall of the oni maids, I got meat stew and ate it slowly .
Yeah it’s hot but it’s great .
I want to eat more but I endured it thinking about dinner .
While being guarded by the kuros, I went around the pool again and then left .
After coming from the pool, I’ve become sleepy .
Let’s sleep until dinner .
When I came back to my room in my mansion, I found Loo, Tier, cat, Jewel the jewel cat, the four kittens, Hitoe the young nine-tailed fox, Kuro, and Yuki .
The spiderlings are on the ceiling .
This is strange .
I thought that other places were installed with devices that blow up cold air too .
Why are they in my room?
Moreover, the device in my room should have an on/off function .
Who switched it on?
I thought this place was my private space .
While thinking so, I heard a voice behind me .
「Everyone, I brought some chilled fruits . 」
It’s one of the oni maids .
She’s the one who had fallen asleep in my room before .
She’s holding a plate full of various cut fruits .
When she saw me, she stopped moving .
Ehto… .
When she was struggling on finding the words to say, the kittens huddled on her feet .
I wonder what happened .
Why did she act like that?
Ah, Hitoe seemed to rise up too .

You want watermelon?
Ah… . don’t mind me . Give that to them .
Generally, cats don’t like citrus or similar fruits . They mainly eat watermelon and strawberries .
Hitoe is like that too .
Kuro, Yuki, and the spiderlings, on the other hand, are okay with it .
As for Loo… . chilled tomato .
She eats it in one gulping .
As for Tier, chilled cucumber .
She put some salt first before eating it… .
Aren’t you controlling the golems a while ago? How come you are sleeping here?
It’s okay since they are on autopilot?
If an emergency happens, there’s no problem since Gran Maria is there .
I see, so that’s the reason Gran Maria was like that .
However, why does it look like she forgot her role as a guard?
Is she playing around and enjoying herself?
And you guys .
Though it is good that you have a good appetite, it will be dinner soon .
Fuh .
The sleepiness that the pool gave me was blown away .
I sit on the bed, put cat on my lap, and stroke the bottom of its chin .
The room is cold because of the guests so it feels great to be here……
Jewel got on my knees asking to be stroke too .
Yes yes .
You want to be stroked under your chin too, right Jewel… . no?
Not there?
Is it behind your ear?
Great, it looks like I’m right .
I’ll stroke Kuro and Yuki after them .
Eh?
You just slept so you’ll decline?
Ahahaha .
Don’t be shy .
However, Loo and Tier, you should be shy .
It’s cool but don’t stick to me too much .
No, it’s not because my love for you has cooled down . It is still as hot as before .
As for the oni maid… . don’t worry, I won’t scold you .
However, I can’t stop Ann who’s standing behind you .
Sorry .
I spent time chillin in the room until we were called for dinner .
