In the morning, the inside of the magic tent was set up. Well, I miscalculated that the clean portable toilets were more popular than the magic tent, the spring water jar and the blower. I understand your feelings, but I wish you had paid a little more attention to the other magical tools. The spirit kings came to visit us in the afternoon, so let's entertain them as much as we can.

"Hmmm... Compared to the last ice cream, it's much smoother on the tongue. The taste is mellower, but at the same time, the flavor of milk has increased. Mmm, it's quite good."

Mr. Wright's difficult face? He is evaluating the ice cream. He said he would check the taste, so I guess he is telling us what he thinks of it as he said. But ...... the most obvious impression is the round tail that's bobbing around at high speed rather than words.

"I'm glad you liked it. I'll be sure to let Mr. Torque know what you think of it.

"Mm. Tell them to be diligent in the future. Then I will give you another taste.

"Yeah, okay. ......"

You're too busy eating ice cream to listen to me. He's tasting the ice cream while keeping the pudding as if the job is done. I don't think he has to keep the pudding since there is no one else to take it. Well, he seems to be in a good mood, so in a way it's easy and helpful.

Next to her, Earth-sama is also quietly eating ice cream and pudding. He seems to be a taciturn person, so it's hard to ask him what he thinks. But from what I saw last time, he seems to like to eat, so I guess I don't have to be so careful.

We can't just leave Mr. Light and Mr. Earth alone, so let's make sure to treat the other spirit kings well too. I'm not sure if there's any room for me to enter into the conversation here, even though I'm .......

"I have called the meeting as Sylphy asked me to. A good number of people have already announced their participation, but they'd rather run a bar ...... than cook, and they'd rather be surrounded by alcohol. How are you going to determine that?"

"I can't help that part, I'm going to have Ruby judge it. The more applicants we have, the better we'll be able to attract the best and brightest. By the way, have you prepared the spirit money I asked you to buy for the liquor?"

"Yes, we've gathered quite a bit, thanks to everyone's cooperation. I'll give it to you later.

According to the conversation between Mr. Wind and Sylphy, they are talking about a bar to be built on the island. It seems that they have already recruited a certain number of spirit money and personnel. I wonder if they are acting too fast ...... in the few days since I told them about the liquor island.

"Hmm, how many bars are they going to build?"

Master Dirk makes a good point. But he doesn't seem to be stopping at all.

"For now, we're going to open three taverns that Yuta told us about. I'm thinking of one bar. After that, we'll add more bars depending on the requests and popularity.

"What kind of bar would that be?"

Yuta says that it is a place to enjoy many kinds of drinks in a dark and calm atmosphere. First of all, they need a lot of different kinds of alcohol and the owner needs to be knowledgeable about alcohol.

"Oh, it's dark and quiet."

Master Dirk seems intrigued by the bar. Onyx was also attracted to the bar, and since she is a spirit of darkness, the dimness and quietness of the place seem to be a key point. Well, there are many kinds of bars, but I don't want to get into that, so I'll keep my mouth shut for now.

"So many kinds of drinks, is there really that many kinds of drinks?"

The same liquor tastes different in different regions where it is made. And with spirits, it seems that they are classified by the number of years they have been aged. Nomos also said that Yuta seems to know some liquors, so he will try new liquors when he finishes making the common ones.

"Oh come on, a new sake is born. I can't wait! Why don't you just go ahead and make it?

Sylphy answers Master Water's question, to which Master Fire snaps back. The conversation about alcohol seems to continue indefinitely.

Nomos is showing Wind-sama what looks like a blueprint, and Dine is explaining to Dark-sama about the situation of spirits. ......I'll serve additional desserts to Light-sama and Earth-sama for now, and I'll go make the rounds.

I feel it would be bad to leave the party since I'm the host, but since I'm so enthusiastic about it, I guess it's okay. I don't mind talking about drinking, but the seriousness of it scares me.

****

"Oh, yoota." "Cue."

As I was taking a walk outside to watch the spirits flying around, Belle and Rain, who were in the group, came flying towards me.

"Belle, Rain, were you guiding them?"

I asked them a question while petting Belle and Rain who jumped on me.

"Yes! Belle, girl... "Cue cue!"

Belle and Raine look motivated. Looking toward the group, I wondered if the accompanying spirits were advanced water spirits. And one middle-class spirit-like child. The others are quite small, so they seem to be mainly floating spirits. Belle and Rain are taking care of them while guiding them, so they must be big sisters.

The fact that Belle and Rain are guiding the children means that they are guiding the children separately. It seems to be a combination of Tulu and Tamamo, or Flare and Moon.

"You're taking good care of the little ones, aren't you?

After another round of patting with praise, Belle and Rain returned to the group of spirits. They said they would show us around a lot, so they would probably guide the spirits who came to visit us well.

I doubt if there are that many places to show them around, but since Belle and her friends patrol Paradise frequently, I'm sure they can show them some of the deeper delights that I don't know about. I'm sure the Belles are more friendly with the animals in paradise than I am with the ones I'm busy bringing meals to when I have time. .......

I feel a little sad, but I get myself together and continue my rounds. Even though I still haven't been able to mooch off any of the animals in paradise, I can wave to the spirits flying around and they'll come up to me and let me pet them.

Spirits in the form of various kinds of creatures. And since they are mainly floating spirits and lower class spirits, they are tiny and cute. They are the best kind of healing.

I'd like to pet some of the larger creatures, but it's difficult because most of the accompanying spirits are humanoid spirits to take care of the children. I guess that when the sake island opens, there will be big spirits, but they will be too busy drinking to pet them. We will have to be patient until the paradise is fully staffed and people can come to visit us easily.

We took a walk and played with the spirits, and finally arrived at the cafeteria of the paradise, which seemed to be the busiest place. The slide was a big hit with the little ones, but the delicious food was the main attraction, so everyone would be excited.

The mixed fries are up!

"Aiyo!"

As I entered the cafeteria, I was greeted by the cheerful voice of Ruby and Gina's response. I also see Sarah and her friends, and Gina and her friends seem to be supporting the busy cafeteria.

And, as Gina carries her mixed fry set meal, I see a scene I've seen in a comic book: ....... It took me a while to get there because I was playing with the little ones, but I guess the spirit kings had already arrived. So the only big spirit with us is Sylphy. Since moving with a large number of people would be a hindrance, they probably left the guiding to Sylphy and refrained from joining Deanne and the others.

Looking around the cafeteria, the little ones are basically engrossed in the desserts. I guess they called the spirit kings since desserts are leftovers. I guess they are too busy to do crepe demonstrations at lunchtime.

And among the spirit kings who are chatting and laughing after finishing their meal, there is only one person, Master Earth, who is silently eating his food and piling up his plate.

"Earth-sama, can I bring the next dish as usual?"

Earth-sama nodded her head in response to Gina's question, and then devoured the food. I wonder how much food can fit in her feminine silhouette, but then again, Belle and the others eat an incredible amount compared to their bodies, so it's a little late for that.

"Earth-sama, how is the food?"

I must have picked the wrong time to call out to you. I made him nod with a fried shrimp in his mouth. The way he nodded his head was just like the children's. Was he so absorbed in cooking that he turned into a child?

"Hmmm, Earth is very happy. "But he's been looking forward to it so much that he's probably eating a little too much."

Master Dirk follows up on the silently mugging Earth-sama.

"Haha, I'm glad you're pleased. ......"

However, I'm sure you'll eat like a gluttonous champion...... should I restock the food I gave Ruby with some extra ingredients?

"Oh, don't worry. I know the limit of the exchange of spirit money. If Earth's money is not enough, we will pay for it with our remaining money.

If I was worried about the rest of the food, he thought I was worried about the price. I have set a limit on the exchange of spirit money. The set meal is 500 elt...... and we can get a good amount of food if we collect the rest of the five leftovers.

I am not sure if I can take money from the Spirit Kings, but it would be very helpful if the Spirit Kings themselves follow the rules. It would be awkward to show them that we are giving them special treatment when the little ones are also making do within the limit.

"Um, okay. But I'm going to be serving a lot of food at night, so I should probably go easy on them, right?"

That's true. Earth, you'll have to stop next time."

"...... got it."

Master Dark finally stopped Master Earth. Earth-sama looks a little sad, but she agrees with me. I guess we'll have more for dinner tonight than usual.

"If we finish with the next dish, what should we do after that? Now that we've pretty much decided about Sake Island, shall we take a walk in paradise? I'm curious about the spirit tree slide. Deanne says it's pretty fast if you use a wooden sled, right?" 

Mr. Wind got a bite of the slide. Is it OK if the Spirit Kings go down the slide? Well, Wind-sama and Light-sama don't seem to be uncomfortable with little kids, but Fire-sama and others seem to be very uncomfortable.

"Ah, you mean that thing with the spirit tree surrounded by a circle? It looks quite interesting. Let's go!"

Fire-sama, who I feel the most uncomfortable with, bites into the slide. The other spirit kings were also surprisingly friendly, and in no time at all, it was decided that the spirit kings would go to the slide. ......I want to see Master Dark sliding down the slide, so I'll go with him.
