490 - - 488. You did it, Mr. Betty.

When I went to the Adventurer's Guild for advice on how to organize a training course for spiritists, I had a huge miscalculation. I thought I could manage if I taught 10 to 20 people, Interviewing over 300 people and training over 50 is too different from the ...... schedule.

"...... is why, what do you guys think?"

After an unscheduled meeting with the guildmaster, I left the meeting early and returned to the inn to begin a meeting with the Great Spirits.

Nomos seemed unenthusiastic, but I guess he is not in the mood because he is doing his best to bring more alcohol to his house.

But he has promised to help me when I teach him, so there should be no problem even if he is unwilling now. Well, it would definitely be helpful if he were motivated, though.

"What do you think, Yuta?"

Before I could ask everyone's opinion, Sylphy asked me what I thought.

"Hmmm. I know it's better for the spirits and the spirits' artisans if there are more proper spiritists, but to be honest, it's a hassle to interview more than ......300 people. I think it's a good idea."

The only thing we need to do is to divide them into groups according to their attributes and teach them chanting and actions, which is more work but not impossible. However, the interview process is very tedious.

If we teach the wrong person, the reputation of the spiritist will be damaged and it will not be good for the contracted spirits. So I was going to do the interviews well, but 300 people is too many.

"Yuta, do you have no problem if the interviews are easier?"

"Hmm?　Yeah. Vita is right, if that part becomes easier, I don't think there will be a problem. But if the number of people increases, won't it be hard for Sylphy and the others to teach the floating spirits various things?　Are you going to be okay with that?"

Sylphy and the others started to ask for advice when I asked my question.

They were not suppressing their voices, but were just discussing in a normal manner, so it was difficult to hear their raw opinions.

I didn't want to hear how to recognize a bad person from the mouth of Dine, who has a natural and friendly image.

At any rate, the Great Spirits seem to have a policy of accepting the increase in the number of people. Nomos, who seemed to be in trouble, also expressed his opinion to increase the number of people.

Perhaps, it is a little different from the duty as a Great Spirit ......?　Somehow, it seems that everyone wants to give junior spirits more options.

They may be big spirits who like to drink, love to be funny, or are natural, or have many other quirks, but they are basically kind. I want a boss like that too......, but I don't like it because I think I would have a hard time if Sylphy and the others were my bosses.

I'd like to have a boss like Dolly or Vita.

"Okay, it's decided. Yuta, we will accept the maximum number of people here. It may be a hassle, but the more decent necromancers we have, the better our reputation will be."

Nomos, the number one boss whose drinking sessions seem to never end, has come to a conclusion.

"What about the floating spirits who interview and educate?"

We can help you with the interviews. I'm not much interested in humans, but you can rest assured that we'll be able to tell if you have a good personality or not.

Sylphy, the No. 1 boss who seems to be the most reckless, says reassuring things. If he has a good personality, there won't be any problems.

"What about the education of the floating spirits?　I've heard that there are some people here who are just gifted spiritists, so we're going to need to support them in their contracts, aren't we?"

It is difficult to decide what the right answer is because it is difficult to deal with children who are not self-aware and contracted spirit workers.

Ideally, it would be best if only those with great personalities who have contracted with floating spirits with perfect self-consciousness would come for interviews, but the world is not so easy.

"It will take a long time if there are more of them, but my sisters will train them first, so it won't be a problem..."

Even Dine, the number one boss who seems to be a natural at making big mistakes, seems to be motivated. Does "educate first" mean to educate the spirits flying around there?

Then, the kids and the genie surgeon are combined into a contract ...... that looks more like a blind date than a blind date.

But is it safe to educate them first?　Wouldn't you feel sorry for the spirit if you educated him and he couldn't sign the contract?"

It pains my heart just to think of those little spirits whose hard-learned knowledge will be wasted.

"I don't care about that. Genie make contracts based on their mood, so even if they study hard, they won't make a contract if they don't feel like it.

"You make a contract based on your mood?　But the spirits that Sylphy and the others have brought so far haven't been reluctant to sign contracts, have they?"

Belle and the others, including Fuchu, signed the contract without any reluctance. Well, I can understand the mood part when I see Sylphy and the others. .......

"That's because we brought them here. Well, it's also because Yuta is a good property. I'll explain to him that he's signing a contract with a regular genie magician this time, so he can make his own decision."

"I see. ......"

Well, I heard that the spirits are free to terminate the contract, so we don't have to be so nervous as long as we get rid of the bad guys.

"Okay. If Sylphie and the others can help me with the interview, I'll be fine, so I'll take Gilmas's offer. When can we start the training?"

"Yes, I think so. It's a little tricky to get motivated kids when you have so many, so maybe in five days?"

Five days is OK? Well, the sooner I get back to paradise, the sooner I can taste soy sauce and miso.

Got it. I'll go to the Adventurers' Guild again and talk to them.

"Ah, Yuta-san. Can we do this training together with my request?"

Doing Dolly a favor with her. I mean, it's not like we can't do it, but it's a slightly different genre, so I'm not sure the Adventurers' Guild will be able to move quickly.

"...... Okay. I'll talk to the guildmasters of the Adventurers Guild, but if I can't get to them in time, I'll talk to Betty. Maybe she can do something about it."

I should have asked Marie for help, but I just gave her a sermon, and I'm afraid she'll go berserk if I ask her for a favor, so I'll ask Betty for help.

I've treated her to a delicious curry, and I'm sure she'll do her best.

I'm sure she'll do her best.

That's Dolly, who is competing with Vita for the number one kind boss. Just hearing her say "please" is enough to motivate me to keep going. As far as I'm concerned, I prefer beautiful bosses, so I'll take Dolly over Vita any day.

By the way, ifs not in the "boss" category, but I think she is a sister or a boss, or something in a different genre, so I'll rank her differently.

****

After the discussion, I told Guilmouth that if he passed the interview, there would be no limit to the number of participants, and he was overjoyed. When I told him that the interview would be in five days, he half cried and asked for a little more time. .......

We both knew it was short notice, so we compromised and scheduled the interview for seven days later.

Dolly's request was still slightly out of the Adventurers' Guild's jurisdiction, so we decided to ask for the help of the woman in front of us, if she was willing to take the time.

I decided to ask for help from the woman in front of me, but I wondered if I could really ask for help from .......

"Well, Betty, thank you for your help the other day. You look tired, are you all right?"

The chewiness of the plump and plump Betty's cheeks seems to have subtly lost its strength. Has she lost weight, or is it more of a shrinkage?

"I'm not okay at all. Daniela and Guilmas scare me. Franco is a demon. Ada won't help me.

He looked tired, so I threw a few words of concern in a socially friendly manner, and he whined as best he could. I think Betty has a good spirit.

I didn't expect her to blurt it out in public at the reception counter of a commercial guild.

I wonder if the guy next to Ms. Betty, with veins floating on his temples, is Arda or something, and the man in the back with an indignant look on his face, where the management might be sitting, is Mr. Franco, the office manager.

At any rate, I'm sure you'll be giving me a lecture after I leave.

"Yuta-san, please listen to me. After Yuta-san left, Daniela-san went to Gilmas' place. They were bickering with each other and I was caught between them. On top of that, I'm working for the spice company because I'm the one who brought the idea to him. I'm so busy that I'm dying. I want to eat good food. It's all Yuta's fault.

The people around me are completely taken aback by the raging complaints being spewed out. The only one laughing is Sylphy. Sylphy likes Betty's type a lot.

Then, a man who looks like Mr. Franco comes running up to her and drops a fist on her head as hard as he can. A dull thud sounded, so the force must have been quite strong. Betty was rolling on the floor in agony, unable to make a sound.

In Japan, this would be a scene that would surely cause power harassment, but why?　Dropping the fistbones seems so right to Franco.

Well, still, in Japan, Mr. Franco would be punished, but alas, this is another world, so there is no help for Ms. Betty. Hmm?　Am I supposed to follow up?

"Mr. Yuta. I apologize for the trouble our receptionist has caused you.

That's great, Mr. Franco. You have a perfect sales smile, even though the veins are clearly visible around your temples. On the contrary, it scares me. .......

"No, I'm sorry for the trouble I've caused you. I'm sorry you had to go through so much trouble because of my request.

I was going to ask you to do a job for me, but it seems that Betty has reached her limit. I should thank her by inviting her to dinner sometime, since she has helped me in so many ways.

It was my mistake to neglect Ms. Betty because of the profits of the commercial guild.

"No, no, Mr. Yuta's request has benefited the guild. I am not bothered at all. So, how can I help you? May I show you to your private room?"

......It's not much to ask to be shown to a private room, but now that I've attracted some attention, I guess I'd better ask them to show me around.

"Oh, please. And may I borrow Betty?"

And while we're at it, let's rescue Betty. It would be a pity to leave her with a furious Franco.

Well, it looks like I'm going to have to ask you to do some work for me after all, but it'll be outside work, so I can get away from the menial tasks. Good for you, Betty.
