Mel cried a lot, and as a result, Eunice intervened, causing chaos. Mel finally calmed down after explaining that she was crying tears of joy, but it was exhausting.

"We still have a lot to talk about, so you should go over there.

"Don't treat me like a dog!"

He didn't like my shushing and waving, and went back to the end of the hallway on the other side.

The wind wall that Bell had put up was only impervious to sound; should I have asked him to make it impervious to people as well? But that would complicate things.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

"Well, I don't know how you feel, but I'm sure you have a lot of work to do, so please calm down."

"Yes."

Seeing Mel shunned makes me feel guilty ...... Mel is an adult. There's nothing wrong with the way things are now.

"Please try to communicate with Meral as much as you can, the way I just taught you. Now we just need to raise our level to get a contract.

"......I'm sure Yunice will help you if you ask her, but we have a party, so it may take some time."

"Yuta. Please, help him."

Meral asks me for a favor. I thought Meral was pretty overprotective when I came to the workshop. It's like I'm protective of my children. I nod to Meral since I promised to at least help her level up.

"Mel-san. I'm training an apprentice right now. I think it will help you communicate with Meral."

"Well. I hope I'm not bothering you. ......"

"Meral has asked me to help Mel learn to be a genie magician, so I don't mind if you do. It's not mandatory, so it's up to you.

After thinking about it for a while, Mel concluded, "I'm looking forward to working with you.

I understand. Then I will call out to you when I enter the labyrinth. We are going to search the labyrinth tomorrow. I'll probably stay here for three days or so. If it's too soon, we can do it another time.

Tomorrow is fine. We hardly have any visitors in the workshop.

Please don't be sad. A little sadly, we decide on a schedule for leveling up. Since I have enough magical power to make a contract with a lower level spirit, I suggested making a contract with a floating spirit or a lower level spirit for practice, but he refused.

Mel-san bows his head repeatedly with an extremely apologetic look on his face. When I asked him about the reason, he said that he had contracted with Meral as a family of blacksmiths for generations, and that it was against his faith to contract with other spirits because he couldn't contract with Meral.

I let go of Meral, who was moved to tears, and told her that there was no problem from the spirit's side, but she was adamant, apologizing for her mistake. Meral said he was stubborn, and I guess that's what this is about.

In the end, I told her I was selfish and I couldn't ask her to help me level up. I'll do my best by myself.

Meral was upset by that. I thought it was fine if she wanted to do it on her own, but Meral cried and I told her that it was a done deal that I would help her level up.

"Well, I'll pick you up in the morning and you can get ready," she said. You have your Adventurer's Guild cards and equipment, right?"

"Yes. I leveled up for the contract with Meral, so I prepared for it then."

"Well, now that that's all said and done, I guess we're done here since Ms. Eunice can't wait to hear from you. So, since Ms. Eunice can't wait to hear what you have to say, let's end this conversation. That's the promise I made to Meral. If I tell you the secret, Meral will really disappear.

"Wow, I understand. I will keep your secret. I don't know if this is a good time to ask this, but can you talk to spirits? Hiccup, no, it's nothing, I'm sorry for asking so many unnecessary questions."

He asked without permission and apologized without permission. Meral was right, he really is a scaredy-cat.

"It's okay. There's no problem as long as you keep it a secret, and I can talk to the spirits. You'll know more about that later, so that's enough for today.

Yes. Yes, sir.

"Oh, and, uh... You can tell Mr. Yunis about entering the labyrinth, but please don't follow me.

From the look of her concern, I'd say she'd be in a state of undue fuss if Mel didn't come back for three days from the day after she met me. But I have a feeling that if I tell him, he'll follow me with all his might. We'll have to give Mel our best.

Yes, sir. I'll do my best."

Yunis seems to be curious about us, so we finish our conversation and join Yunis. Yunice hugs Mel and asks him if he did anything strange. She asks him if he did anything weird, if he made any suspicious promises. At least wait until after I get back.

I manage to digest most of Meraru's requests and leave the workshop. It was supposed to be a simple lesson, but it turned out to be a lot harder than I expected.

"Yuta. Thank you. I'll pay you back for this, and I'll look forward to working with you tomorrow.

(Ok. Meral, make sure you communicate well with Mel.)

"Yes!"

Meral's smile is dazzling. She must be happy that Mel's worries are somewhat resolved and that she can now communicate with him. Her smile is cheerful, befitting a boy's appearance.

I feel like I've done something good. I made this boy genie smile! Well, no one can see it but the genie.

"Yuta! What are you going to do now?"

(Mmm. It's still morning time, so we have a lot of time. I got a letter of introduction from a carpenter, so we'll go see him once, and if we have more time, we can go to the furniture shop we couldn't go to last time, okay?)

"Great. Furniture store. I'm looking forward to it. So, Yuta, what are you going to order from the carpenter?"

(I haven't decided yet, but I want to enrich my life in the land of the dead, so I'm thinking of asking about a house. Now that I have some money, I'm thinking of having a house built for my reference.)

I've got a lot of furniture, and I'm going to miss having a house carved out of a rock. Since I'm exploring, I want to build my ideal place.

"You're buying a house. Then please give me a room for my sister." "Beru wants a room too. I want to be with everyone." "Coo-coo."

Huh? You all want a room? Tulu seems to want to be with everyone, but what about you? I thought you had to build a mansion to have enough room. You are working under the assumption that it will become a sanctuary in the first place. Are you sure it will be a sanctuary by now?

(Didn't Dineh want a house of her own?)

"I am Yuta's big sister, so it is a truth that Yuta has a room in his house."

What truth? Is truth even a word to be used in a situation like this?

(Would Dolly be happier if she had a room?)

"Yes, I would be happy to have a room where I can experience the life of a normal person. But the house on the spirit tree that Yuta-san mentioned before would also be wonderful."

...... Would Dolly be happy to have one too? And she seems to be more moved by the treehouse. Dolly, who has the air of a young lady, has a treehouse. It's a little strange.

But then, it would be unfair if we don't have a room for Sylphy and Nomos, and we might get new spirits and new apprentices. How many rooms do we need?

(Okay. Then we would have to build a big house. We should ask for a small house this time and ask for or build a big house when it is confirmed to be a sanctuary. (You guys think about what kind of house and rooms you want.)

I asked for a mansion and it was not designated as a sanctuary. It would be too sad if it turns out that only a few people will live in the mansion.

"I like it. It's fun to have a house and rooms and furniture and lots of things to think about.

"Yes, it is. I've lived a long time, but I've never seriously thought about housing before. I'm a little excited too."

Deanne doesn't think it's strange, but Dolly is looking forward to it. Maybe the house is more fun for the spirits than we thought. I'll get into it. My home is important.

I arrived at the carpenter's place that Marie had introduced me to. I told her to introduce me to a carpenter, but it looks like a construction company. Let's go inside anyway.

"Welcome!

When I entered, a lady greeted me with a smile. She looks more and more like a company.

"Good morning. I have a letter of introduction.

Yes. Yes. I'll take care of it here.

I hand the letter of introduction that Marie gave me to the receptionist.

"Are you an introduction from the Polurius Chamber of Commerce? Please have a seat and wait while I call the person in charge.

While I was waiting in one of the chairs, a small man with a beard walked up to me. I instantly recognized him as a dwarf. Maybe today is a good day to be associated with dwarves. And he looks like Nomos.

"Oh. You're the one with the letter of introduction from Marie's daughter. I'm Gilles. Nice to meet you."

The atmosphere in the office has changed dramatically.

"My name is Yuta. Pleased to meet you.

"Mm. So, what are your requirements? Marie's missus' letter only said to do her a favor."

"I see. Well, I need a house with storage. Is that possible?"

"Hm? Is that it, or are you asking me to build a house that can hold a magic bag? It's possible, because rich people with very powerful magic bags sometimes make them, but do you also have a very powerful magic bag?"

So we are all thinking the same way. Well, if there was a bag that could carry a house, everyone would think about it. But if it's made from scratch, it's easier to order.

"Yes. I've got a pretty powerful magic bag, and I'd be happy to have a house to carry it in, can you do it?"

"That stuff is nothing but a hobby. Even if you build a good house, you will never have a chance to use it if you don't go out, and if you build it without regard for defense, it will be dangerous outside. The amount of storage space for the house will be reduced. Besides, if the capacity is too tight, you will have to take the house out of the bag and put your stuff in it, and so on. It is much better to put the tent in there, and I don't like it!

It is certainly a pleasure to listen to you. No wonder tents are more convenient overall. But are you sure you're not about to refuse my order? Jill, you're in a bad mood.

"I'm fine. It's a very rough place, but I've secured a safe piece of land. We need a proper house to live in."

It's a steep and deadly land. I want you to build it so it doesn't go to waste. The capacity problem is fine because it's limitless. I can't tell you.

"Hmm. So it won't go to waste. Okay, fine, I'll make it. Come on in, what kind of house do you want?"

I follow Jill as she walks away with a thud. I'm glad we were able to work something out, even though I felt like he was going to refuse my order.
