Six pillars were constructed to hold the attribute staffs in the fountain. The six pillars that emerge from the clear fountain to surround the fountain are quite cool. It would be a real fantasy if I could set up a wand there and each attribute would float on it. After that, we went to check on the guavard chicks and decided to build a bathing place for the guavard.

"Vita, I'm going to run some water now and let you know if any of the guavards get swept away."

"Okay."

Some guavards have already entered the canal. They've lost their wildness, and they're definitely not being careful enough. Well, we'll let the water in slowly.

The rock that was used as a stopper is moved a little to the side, and the water flows into the new channel. ......The water is flowing pretty fast. I think I angled the channel too much. I'll have Tulu fine-tune it later. When the water reaches the guavard, the guavards start to make noise. Are they happy to see the water?

They are probably happy to see that they are heading for the water without running away from it. The water that flowed into the bathhouse pooled up, and the guavards were gathering around.

"Vita, is the water hole a little small?

Haha, it looks small for now, but when things settle down, we'll start using it for our own convenience, don't worry.

If it's not a problem, fine. It looks too crowded and hot, but it's worth it. Well, it's time to play with the long-awaited guava bird chicks. Unlike wild animals, I'm sure they won't run away.

"Guh!"

As I approach the chicks, one of the guavards spreads its wings wide and cries menacingly...... and is extremely wary of me. What the heck, they're usually not as alert as I'm worried about them. .......

"Yuta, don't force it."

"I don't want to force you to do anything, but I didn't think you'd be this cautious."

"I'm your mother."

I'm not trying to harm you, but I don't think you'd understand if I told you ....... I feel like I've come to another world and all the animals except for the spirits have completely turned their backs on me.

"............At any rate, I'll go back home quietly."

"That's good. When they are a little older, their parents will be less cautious, and you can come and see them then."

"Yeah, okay."

...... I have an image of birds growing up quickly, can we play with them while we can call them chicks?

**

"Yuta, Beru-tachi did great!"

As soon as I got back to the house, Bell and the others came back. It's almost noon, so it's a good thing. Or maybe they came back because of lunch.

"Welcome home, guys. Did you notice anything strange?"

The belles are verbally reporting all sorts of things to me. They report happily about the animals, the plants, the big pond, and the new places they have explored.

"Thank you for your hard work. How was it outside the base?"

It was daytime, so there were no undead, but there were a few death lizards and death scorpions. Bell chopped them up with a blade of wind and Flare burned them up. Poor things were completely annihilated.

"I understand. Thank you all."

He strokes Bell and the others to thank them and express his feelings that he couldn't play with the chicks.

"Okay, well, I think it's time for lunch.

"Ohiru! Plin?"" ......"

It's more like dessert than lunch.

"I don't mind having dessert, but only after lunch. And if I eat it for lunch, I can't eat it at night, is that okay?"

Bell said, "Oh, yes!" and they started to discuss it with their heads together. They are discussing seriously whether to have dessert at lunch or at night. I want to tell her that since she has already helped me so much today, she can have two special desserts. ...... But it's not good for education to make an exception the day after you promised. While I'm thinking about it, Bell and the others have come to a decision.

"We'll eat in the morning.

"Okay. I'll bring it out after dinner."

I took the happy Bells to the living room, where Gina and the others were waiting for us. Over lunch, I asked them if the redecoration had gone well. We set the table and begin our lunch.

"Gina, Sara, Marco, Kikka, did you feel comfortable in your room?

"Well, I don't think I've changed that much. It was a nice room to begin with, and now that I have more accessories, it's a little more girly ......?"

Gina finally says with an unsure look on her face.

"We decorated with cut flowers. I asked Tamamo to help us and she picked out some beautiful flowers from the branches of a tree.

"Kikka put the puppies in the kitchen!"

"I didn't buy anything that didn't belong to me, so I looked at it!"

Hmmm, what about this one? It seems that she is a very girly girl to decorate with flowers, but she doesn't seem to have added enough accessories to change the room. Well, there's no need to skip it from the beginning. There will be plenty of shopping opportunities in the future. As you get more and more things, you will find what you like and what you want. It's a first step.

"I see. So you have some extra time. What have you been doing?"

"We gathered in my room to check on Sarah and Kikka's magical tools that Master gave us, and to discuss what to do during the trip now that Kikka can move faster."

"With the wind shoes, I don't get caught and I can go faster!"

In a walking labyrinth, it takes a lot of time to move around. If Kikka can move quickly, it will be very effective.

"Master, after lunch, I'm going to try to match the speed of movement by forming a line with everyone else, is that all right?"

"Yes, that's fine. But don't think only of going as fast as you can just because you can move faster. There are monsters and traps in the labyrinth. Even though Huku and the others will take precautions, you should think about the speed of movement as long as you don't overdo it.

Like a master, he said something cool. Gina and the others nodded their heads, and they would do their best to verify the speed of their movement. We put the difficult talk to rest and continue our lunch with some simple chit-chat.

"Thanks for lunch!

Bell, having finished his meal, flies up to me.

"Purinoo!"

Right. I take the pudding out of my magic bag and hand it to Belle. Before I know it, there's a line of people behind Belle. Fuchu and the others have dessert, too. Let's explain to them that they can have dessert only once a day, and if they eat it at lunch time, they can't have it at night.

In the end, everyone, including Gina and the others, has decided to have dessert for lunch, so I hand them one by one as requested. They are happy with the delicious food, but I think they are a little happier with the desserts.

I love the atmosphere when everyone is eating the desserts, saying how delicious and tasty they are. ......I just came up with a strange idea. Now that everyone is eating dessert, if I choose to eat dessert at night, won't I be the sole winner at night?

...... eat dessert alone while showing off to the kids . What a scum idea. Don't be a fool, I'll eat my pudding with everyone else.

**

Gina and her friends went out for verification, and Bell and her friends were sent off to play in the park since their work was finished. Aside from the Bells, Gina and the others might want to have a little more variety in what they do.

Go to defeat the undead, train or take a day off. Gina and Sara have the food, but I think Marco and Kikka's lives need a few more ups and downs. I'll think of something.

First, let's make the frames as planned. I've got twenty-three drawings in all. I've given two of them to Mel and Meral, but I'll make frames for them too.

It's difficult to decorate the frames, so we can simply cut a piece of wood and frame it with glass. ...... I have a lot of wood that I had Deene drain and dry. Is there any wood that is suitable for picture frames? I also think it needs to be varnished or something. .......

Ask Dolly about the wood for now, and you can buy the varnish and paint it later. I think it's important to try to make it first. Speaking of which, we should paint not only the picture frames but also the playground equipment in the park. I'll talk to Sid about it.

"Yuta-san, what can I do for you?"

"Yes, I'm sorry to summon you even though I'm in the neighborhood. Well, I want to make a picture frame. Do you know which tree is the most suitable for the frame?

"A picture frame? I have never made a picture frame before, so I don't know, but I think the wood should be tight-grained and hard to bend. This is the wood here. I believe it is often used for furniture.

"I see. Thank you, Dolly."

"Is there anything else I can help you with?"

"...... By any chance, can you join the wood to the wood you've worked on?"

"Yes, I can at least join wood to wood.

Dolly smiles at me. Her smile exudes an unshakable confidence.

"Well then, I'll summon you again when I'm done making the parts, can I ask you to help me?"

"Yes, sir."

He sends Dolly off and begins to make the parts. But it would be nice if you could join the wood to the wood. It's much cleaner than nailing wood to wood.

The parts I need are the back plate and a frame that the front glass and the back plate can fit into. The other part is a stopper, I don't know what it's called ......, to keep the front and the back from separating. I'm used to it these days, but it's hard to cut it straight and flat, so I need something that can be used as a ruler.

...... treasure chest might work. It's straight and tall enough to keep the magic saw from slipping off. The frame of the table can be made by dividing it into four parts, and I think I can manage it.

........................I honestly underestimated how easy it would be to make a picture frame. I had only made large frames before, so it was easy to modify them, but making a small one is much harder than I thought.

The step between the back plate and the glass is very difficult. A saw that cuts too much is useful, but it is not suitable for detailed work. It was only in the middle of the process that I finally came up with the idea of using other tools. It's a bad habit not to think of using other tools because the magic shovel and the saw, which are the regular tools for pioneering, are too useful.

Using the small blade of the carving knife of the pioneering tool, I was able to cut down the wood stably and managed to cut all the parts. I guess the right tool for the right job. And even though it says it's a small knife, it can be made as big as two meters. I feel a contradiction.

Now that we are ready, I was going to summon Dolly, but I need to get Nomos to make me some glass plates, so let's go to the distillery.

"Dolly, I'm ready and I need your help. And Nomos, can you get your hands off me now?"

Yes, sir.

Hmm? Well, that's okay.

He calls them from the distillery and explains the work he wants them to do.

"All I have to do is join these parts together.

"I make a glass plate that fits the part perfectly.

"Yes, please."

...... dolly that easily connects the parts I've worked so hard to make. Even the slightest distortion was easily corrected. Nomos easily made a perfect glass plate to fit the frame. If I had asked Nomos and Dolly to do everything for me, the frame would have been made in an instant. But it means something that I made it. I'll take that as a yes.
