356 - - Chapter 354 Invoking the Plan?

I played the game with my students only in my mind, and I felt like I lost. I think I'm more interesting as entertainment, but as a spiritualist who makes it rain on the land of the dead......, I think the rain is more noble.

"Master, can I go slip one more time?"

"Kicka too!"

"Master, may I go with you?"

"I want to go down again, too."

"Uh, yeah, but it's almost dinner time, so this is the last time. Okay?"

Marco, Kikka, Sara, and Gina run up the stairs at my words. Gina and Sara were apprehensive at first, but after one slip, they liked it. The stairs should be quite tough, but I wonder if it's the effect of the level up or if they are having fun and don't feel tired.

"Mel doesn't slip after all? I have the Spirit of the Wind, so I can guarantee your safety."

I call out to Mel, who is waiting next to me, afraid of slipping. Since we're flying together, I don't think it's that scary, even though it's a pretty big slide.

"Yes, Mel, it was fun!"

Meral also wants to go sliding with Mel, and shows us how much she enjoys it. By the way, Meral has skated with Gina and Belle twice. Even the intermediate level spirits had a good time, and they are paying attention to the slides while being careful of Meral.

"Well, I'm not going to do it today. I know it's safe, but I don't have the courage. ...... I'll try tomorrow, tomorrow."

Mel puts herself in a good mood by saying that. The word ...... comes to mind for dieting, but in Mel's case, it takes time to make up her mind, but she is the type of person who takes responsibility for her words, so tomorrow she will slip, even though she is scared. For my part, I'm a little shocked that he's more scared than I expected, even though I thought it would be fun to make it.

"Well, you don't have to do it, you know. By the way, Mel seems to be fine when she is flying with Sylphy, but is she afraid of heights?"

If he is afraid of heights, it would be a pity to force him.

"...... Well, I was afraid of flying with Mr. Sylphy at first, but now somehow I feel fine. I don't know about the high places themselves ...... because I haven't been there much."

Oh, was it the first time I took Mel to the labyrinth? You were dizzy from the roller coaster ride through the cave. I guess he got used to flying after that. Compared to the roller coaster in the cave, flying outside is a piece of cake.

"I see, well, I'm sure it'll be fun, so just give it a try tomorrow and take it easy."

"Yes, I'll do my best."

As I was chatting with Mel, I could hear the happy voices of the little ones from above. Have you slipped already? Dinner and then the meeting. It's been only two days since we came back to paradise, and we're still busy.

**

After dinner, Gina, Belle, Mel and the others returned to their rooms. The great spirits have gathered in the living room, and the meeting is about to begin.

"So, Yuta, what is it that you want to discuss?

As soon as I sat down, Sylphy asked me a question. 

"Well, I would like to discuss the future development of paradise.

"Development? Yuta doesn't intend to develop paradise so hastily, does he?"

Sylphy is tilting her head at my sudden mention of development.

"Yeah, I don't want paradise to urbanize too fast.

In my mind, living in the countryside with a nice, relaxing life and then going to the city for fun and fever ...... would be great. I don't care if it sounds like a stupid idea.

What do you want to do?

"I was thinking, when Mr. Alvard asked me to do this, that paradise is hardly accepting spirits nowadays, isn't it? The places I've left in charge of the spirits of paradise have been so laid back and relaxed that they've hardly added any facilities because they're so concerned about me."

I think it's also a problem that floating spirits, lower class spirits, and middle class spirits come to play, but advanced spirits and great spirits are only chaperones and don't come to play at all.

"Sis, I quite like the current relaxed paradise.

"Deanne is right. It's not only because of Yuta's concern but also because the spirits don't want to develop like a human city. Even if the number of spirits accepted is small, they will increase the number of small children, won't they? It's enough for me to think slowly like that."

Huh? Spirits are more laid back than I thought.

"I thought the little ones wanted to come and play and the big spirits and the higher spirits were being reserved, but they're not?"

"We'll be able to get enough alcohol, so the Great Spirits and the higher spirits can afford to wait for them to come and play leisurely."

What happens if they don't get enough booze? But I guess that means I've been paying too much attention.

"Well, I was thinking of opening up one of the gravity stone islands floating in the middle of paradise as a booze island for the adult spirits, but I guess that's none of my business. Then we have nothing left to discuss. Let's disband."

It's a little embarrassing to gather everyone together for a meeting or a consultation and have this happen. Typical smugness.

Yuta!

"Yes, I think it's a different story if that's the case.

"Mm, Sake Island? You can't break up the group with that kind of talk."

"Yes, that's right. Even if we can afford to wait, it must be nice to have a place where we can freely materialize and drink."

"Yuta, now that you've made me tell you such a burning story, you'll have to take responsibility for it, won't you?"

"Yes. Drinking alcohol happily in a materialized form is heartwarming. I hope you'll keep talking to us."

The color of the eyes of Sylphy, Dine, Nomos, Dolly, If, and Vita changed. I think they even have the aura of some kind of high king.

"I was originally going to do that if it was necessary," he said. Don't look at me so scared, but if you need me to, I'll keep talking to you.

"That reminds me. Yuta suddenly said something attractive and tried to break up the meeting, so I was in a hurry.

Sylphy's cheeks are unusually flushed. It's a sight for sore eyes.

"Well, Yuta, let's continue our conversation. You said Sakejima, didn't you? What are you going to do about it?"

"Well, I don't have a clear idea, that's why I'm asking you. Well, what I'm thinking at the moment is that as long as it's on Sake Island, you can develop it as you like without worrying about me, and that the spirits that come to Sake Island are not allowed to use the island except for Sake Island. We named it Sake Island, but you can use it for more than just alcohol."

I just added the name "sake island" because it will be filled with liquor-related activities anyway, and since development within the island is limited, I don't mind if the spirits build the facilities they want on their own. I'm looking forward to visiting the island when it's completed.

Also, the reason why I banned the use of the island except for the sake island is because I don't want too many spirits to come down to the ground and ruin the relaxing atmosphere of the island.

Oh, I'm afraid that they will build some kind of tower mansion to make the best use of the small land. It would be a disaster if they fall down by accident.

Buildings on the island should be no more than three stories high. Please don't let the island sink.

"Hmmm... They let you have so much freedom. But even though it's called a sake island, the brewery can only make ale. Even if the island is completed, it will be meaningless without sake. Yuta, can you get that much sake?"

"It may not be possible in a hurry, but I told Marie about the magic bag, so if we have enough spirit money to buy the alcohol, I think it would be possible to get them to stock it in large quantities."

I told Marie about the magic bag, so it's a lot easier in that aspect.

"That means we'll be able to secure a certain amount of liquor."

"I think I'll probably be fine. Also, this is not confirmed, but I think that if we ask the Pollius Chamber of Commerce to do whatever we want, at least they can get us a variety of liquors from the Kingdom of Chrysoprase. Well, the more trouble we cause, the higher the price we'll have to pay, and the more spirit money we'll need."

Even the Kingdom of Chrysoprase has a shortage of spirit coins, and even if we wholesale large quantities, the price will not drop for the time being if we include foreign countries. If they lose their value, we can always find another one.

"That's good. Yuta, do you want to take my house to Sake Island too?"

"Well, I guess it depends on what If and Onyx have to say about that. You can decide whether you want to relax in paradise, where the number of visitors is limited, or go all out on sake island, where many spirits are likely to come."

The guests in paradise are Sylphy and her friends, Gina, Ruby and her friends, and sometimes Mel and Meral. ...... Oh, and the spirits from the brewery. It might be a little busy in paradise. Well, they will flow to the sake island when it is built, so it won't be that busy.

"Well, it would be more fun if it was flashy anyway, but it's also a hassle to be ...... too busy to drink."

If is unusually serious. Normally her bold side stands out more than her beautiful face, but when she is distressed like this, her sharp good looks stand out.

"Anyway, the sake island project won't be ready anytime soon, so why don't you take your time and talk it over with Onyx? Then you and Sylphy and the others can discuss and decide how to develop the sake islands."

It's fun to be part of the planning, but it's more fun to go out and play if you don't know anything about it.

"Yes, the sake island ...... sounds like a lot of fun, but we'll need a spirit to run the store. Besides, Ruby and the others won't be able to handle it alone, and we also need a cook who can recreate Yuta's rare dishes. ...... Yuta, the spirit kings are coming to visit next, right?"

Sylphy, who was tired of eating ordinary food and didn't eat well, says she needs a chef. I'm very happy.

"Yes, that's what Mr. Alvard said.

"Then we'll have a plan in place by then. You should hear what Ruby and the others have to say. Deanne, go get them. Nomos, when are you going to start brewing something other than ale?

"I'm going, sister. I'm going.

"The production of ale is going well, and we can make one type with the surplus spirits. The question is what kind of ale to make. It will probably take some time to decide.

"Well then, Nomos and Ifu, I want you to go to the brewery and put together a story. It will be a little easier to get through to them if we tell them about Sake Island, right?"

"Well, I'll give it a try."

"If you tell them they're banned from Sake Island, they'll have one shot at it."

...... something Sylphy and the others started to act quickly. Well, what should I do? ...... Let's just leave and let them call us when they have something to do.
