Chapter 107



[Onii-chan, is that it? Is that your village?]


Leelan peeked out from the carriage .


At the end of the road was the entrance to our village .


[Yeah, it is]


[Leelan, stop sticking out your head like that, it’s dangerous]


When Amy reprimanded her, Leelan promptly hid behind Ayla .


Holding a rose in one hand, she hugged Ruby with her other hand like plush toys .


[Ayla-ane, Amy-san is bullying me~]


There there, Ayla stroke Leelan’s hair . Actually, Leelan wasn’t really afraid of Amy .


She just feigned being scared, very obvious from the fact that when she’s sleeping at night, she usually sleeps closer to Amy than to Ayla .


[Ho, is that the village that master has built?]


Gina also peeked out to check, but that caused the carriage to be out of balance and shook slightly .


[Gina!! Please stop acting like a kid!!]


Amy’s reproof flew out once more . Causing Gina to quietly shrunk herself at the corner of the carriage .


[Now now, it’s the first time for the both of them, just let them be]


I put my hand on Gina’s shoulder and comforted her to not be worried about it too much .


As for Amy, I knew she does not actually hate it if people acted childish around her .


Anyways, Amy was the first one trying to secure Gina when the carriage rocked just now .


She didn’t reprimand people because she hates something, it’s just her acting as the team’s mom because she likes taking care of others .


[Hibiki-dono, can we enter the village as is?]


The male centaur of the centaurs couple, Shiron, who’d been running alongside the carriage, asked .


[Yeah . Sorry to make you two run all the way here . I’ll arrange a resting place right away as soon as we arrived at the village]


[It’s alright . We are part-horse, so it’s not really bad to act as one . ]


Apparently, that does not only apply to endurance but also fighting capability .



Centaurs seemed to be an all-around player in terms of offense and defense . (TL Note: the author used ‘Multiplayer’, which is weird)

By the way, Brigit is sleeping . These elves seemed to be indifferent to anything once they lost interest .


They are declining in number, perhaps because they are also indifferent to their own kinds .


As soon as we entered the village, we received a warm welcome from the villagers .


At the front was the lizardman Pinot, who greeted us with a smile .


The goblin and vampire combined force seemed to be in the middle of training, waving spears and pikes .


[I, I’m not lying, you see!? Horon, I will gallop ahead with you no matter what!!]


Shiron suddenly kneeled on the ground . In front of him was Horon, his wife, who was shaking her head while in tears .


[We will always be together, Shiron!!]


[Horon!!]


The two then hugged each other . They are in their own world right now .


Well, let’s just leave them be .


[Welcome back . Hibiki-san]


A voice came up from behind .


It was Latia .


[Welcome, Hibiki~]


And Yaku is also here, eh?


[You two, I’m back . Something happened while I was away?]


[Let’s see]


[There is!!]


Unlike Latia, Yaku replied vigorously .


In any case, it didn’t seem to be urgent, so I decided to let everyone to have some rest .


Especially for the centaurs couple . Let’s prepare a room for them first .


[How about you, Hibiki-niichan?]


I still need to take Sai back, so I stroke Yaku’s head while telling that I would go back home afterwards .


Right then,


Leelan came out with such great momentum .


She knocked Yaku away before clinging to my arm .


[O, oi, Leelan]


[Onii-chan is MY Onii-chan!!]


Not taking Leelan’s action kindly, Yaku stood back up .


[What was that for!!]


And then, they started to fight .


[Ho, hold, hold it right there you two~]


Latia desperately tried to break them off in vain .


[Both of you, stop it!!]


Again, Amy-kaasan struck like lightning .


[Leelan, if you want to be my husband’s sister, you should be more obedient . ]


[Yes]


[Yaku, wouldn’t your onii-chan be disappointed by your action just now?]


Seeing her dealing with the kids skillfully, I left the matter to Amy and I headed back home .


Latia waited quietly until I finished my slow and relaxing bath .


[So, what really happened?]


After finishing my bath, I asked Latia about what actually happened while I was away over a meal .


[It’s about Hibiki-san’s pool on the grass field]


Apparently, a monster had settled in the light and darkness pool I built on the grass field while we were away .


The creature itself didn’t disturb the village, and I had forewarned the goblins to not approach the area, so apparently, that’s why they let it be .


[It appears to be taking care of the area . It would be a pity if we drive it out . ]


Latia apologized .


[Well, if it’s really harmless, then I have nothing to complain]


And so we decided to check the pool .


[What is happening here?]


It’s clear to me that ahead of us were lots of trees different from those on the forest nearby .


The experimental field was originally not that wide, but who knows that by manipulating the terrain into a mortar-shape would help to focus the magic power?


Checking up the tree in front of me, the name 『Wicky’s Tree』 was displayed .


[What is a Wicky’s tree?]


When I cut its leaf, it read 『Pool grass(Dark)』


[It’s actually the pool grass after all . Then what’s with the Wicky’s tree?]


Hearing my voice, a naked beauty unfurls from the tree that I cut the leaf from .


[I am Wicky]


[So it’s an Alraune . So rare to see one being so close to a village like this . ]


Brigit seemed to be familiar with this creature’s identity .


Looking closely at Wicky, it has a form of a beautiful woman but made entirely from plants .


So I asked why it ended up here since it seemed to be capable of communication .


[Wicky, was captured by humans]


Alraune’s sap is an ingredient for a magical potion . Perhaps that’s why .


[It’s a felony to forcefully strip an Alraune away from the forest . Could it be a smuggled good?]


Amy added .


[Cage broke, so I escaped]


So it managed to escape because its cage was broken .


[But, Wicky was hungry]


It was stripped away from the forest, so no wonder it lacked energy .


[In here, lots of delicious foods]


Magic power is like food for Wicky . It’s been feeding on the magic power in the area .


[The food here, the most delicious]


So that means it liked my magic .


[Here, Wicky’s forest]


Because of that, you claimed this place as your own? Are you kidding me?


[But, this field is mine though]


It tilted her head cutely .


Took a lot of patience, but I finally managed to explain things to it after an hour or so .


[I’m sorry . I just want to eat]


In any case, it was me who infused this land with magic power, as well as the grasses (now trees) .


[Isn’t it alright? Don’t the plants on the forest with Alraune always grow well?]


As Brigit said, the pool grasses previous growing in the area had become trees, and the tree leaves itself are pool grasses .


Moreover, as expected from a plant spirit, Alraune . It could even grow a tree without regard to light or dark attributes .


[I see . Should we just leave this place to Wicky then? ]


Perhaps listening to our conversation, its face brightened as it raised both of its hands .


And from there grew two fruits .


[Do you like plant girl?]


Amy-san, that’s scary .


And once again, the residents of my village is increased .


Well, this fellow will be just fine since people rarely come here .


But first, I need to tell Gillen about this Wicky’s existence .


I want to ask if he knew anything about this smuggling . If he does, then we’ll have something more to discuss .


He’s already swamped in his works, I actually don’t want to add even more things .


And just like that, we found a way to mass-produce pool grass . But who would’ve guessed that it’ll bring more trouble to me later on?
