Ruby and her family have finished all the preparations for their store. I leave Ruby and the others, who are quickly preparing food using the recipe I gave them, and leave the diner. Then Bell flies in at high speed and tells me that the plaza has been completed. ...... Honestly, I think it's too soon.

"The plaza is finished?

"All of it!"

Bell, still in my arms, raises his hands in the air and proudly proclaims, "I'm a good man, I'm a good man, I'm a good man. He looks so cute with a smug expression on his face while he is banzaiing.

"I see...all of it. So Belle came to teach me?"

After I said, "Yes!", she made a surprised face and escaped from my arms. I looked at her to see what was wrong, and she started pointing toward the square and waddling to go quickly. It seems that he was not here to teach me, but to pick me up.

The bell rushed me to the plaza. But did he finish everything? I thought it would take me some time to make it, but I've been working on it by trial and error. Maybe I rushed them because I told them that the little spirits were waiting for them.

"Yuta, hurry!"

As I was thinking about the reason why the plaza was completed earlier than I had imagined, I realized that my steps had been slowing down before I knew it. Bell beckons me to hurry. Well, let's just check the square first.

If the work has been done too hastily, I will have to give him a lecture as a master. I am not sure if I can give a good sermon, but I will do my best to point out the problems in an orderly manner without raising my voice. I nodded to Bell who urged me to hurry and headed for the plaza at a quick pace.

I've got him!

Belle proudly reports to the little army + Gina, Dine and Dolly, who are waiting for her at the entrance of the plaza. Belle is in a good mood because of the praise, but she forgot that she came to pick me up, didn't she? But I can't say that when I see her so pleased with the praise. Since you brought me back, I guess we can agree that the mission was a success.

"Master, the square is finished. Check it out!"

Gina happily reports back to me. She has a big smile on her face, as if she had a good time building the plaza.

"It was completed much faster than expected, is everything okay?"

"Yeah, with everyone's help, we've built a pretty awesome plaza. I'm so confident, take a look inside!"

Sara, Marco, and Kikka nodded confidently at Gina's words. It seems that everyone else is also confident about the quality of the plaza.

"Well, let me show you.

We pass between the rocks that form the boundary and enter the plaza.

"This is ...... awesome ......."

...... is awesome, but it's not at all what I imagined it would be. What about this? What am I supposed to say? I know I said flower garden, but why is the plaza turned into a rose garden? Does a rose garden count as a plaza in the first place?

"Well, it's very beautiful, but why is it a rose garden? I mean, how did Gina and the others know about the Rose Garden?"

"I told them that if we were going to make a square, we wanted to make it beautiful and amazing, and Sylphy and Dolly told me that the castle has a square filled with lots of roses."

Gina told me the truth. Sylphy knew about the castle, and Dolly knew a lot about plants, so it was not surprising that she knew about the Rose Garden. I turn my attention to Sylfie and Dolly who are standing side by side.

"Yuta told me to help Gina and the others if they asked for help, so I told them...no?"

Sylphy, perhaps reading my confusion, tilts her head cockily and says.

"No, I appreciate the help you gave me, but I thought I was helping you a little too much. It's also a training for Gina and the others, so I don't want the Great Spirit to help them too much.

I thought Sylphy and the others would be able to guide us well in this area, but maybe I didn't say enough.

"Oh Yuta, we are not helping you that much. Sylphy just showed us how the rose garden in the castle looks like, and I just made the roses grow. Deanne only gave you advice about the waterway, didn't she?"

"Yes, you just gave advice about the flow of water. Yuta, you don't know what Gina and the others are capable of, you've failed as a master!"

"What? Seriously? This rose garden is pretty amazing. There are arches everywhere with roses wrapped around them, and did you build the domed resting area yourself?"

And the waterways and ponds that reflect the roses so beautifully? Oh no, my sense of aesthetics is completely outdone by my apprentices.

"Master! We did our best! Tulu helped me with the hard part with the cucumbers, but we made it ourselves!"

Marco, holding Uri in his arms, tries his best to appeal to me. He's probably sad that I doubted him. He looks desperate. The first thing I do is to ............ get down on my knees.

No, I'm not so proud that I would die if I had to get down on my knees, and I'm not afraid to get down on my knees if I have to apologize sincerely. ...... Still, I don't think I should get down on my knees as a teacher. If the master gets down on his knees, Gina and the others will be in more trouble than he is.

"Um, Gina, Sara, Marco, Kikka, I'm sorry. I was surprised to see that the plaza turned out better than I had imagined. I'm sorry."

I know I shouldn't get down on my knees, but I can't not apologize. Bow as deeply as possible.

"Raise your head, master. We didn't think we could make such a great square either. It's no wonder you doubt us. We don't mind at all. Sara... Marco... Kikka..."

"Yes, I am surprised too, and I think it is natural that you should have doubts."

I'm happy if the master is happy!

"And Kikka!"

The kindness of my students is very touching. If I were in their place, I would have made them buy me dinner or something, saying that my heart was broken.

"Look, Yuta, Gina and the others are in trouble. Raise your head."

That's true, too. I follow Sylphy's words and raise my head.

"Yuta, you're so good at apologizing!"

Deanne pats my head as if she were complimenting a young child. I'm not happy about being treated like a ...... child, but I have no right to say anything back to her right now. Next time I have to apologize to Belle and Fuchu and the others.

Again, I bow my head in apology to Belle and Fukuchan. They gladly forgive me. I'm happy to be surrounded by such good children, but it's hard to see the dirtiness of my heart in all its glory.

"Master, it's okay to apologize now, just look at the square. I'm so proud of my work!"

"Well, let me take a look at it."

We switch gears and take a tour of the rose garden that everyone has created. I see that the only colors of roses are red and white. We had more colors on earth, but what about in this world?

"Dolly, are roses only red and white?"

No, there are several other colors. There are pink, yellow, purple, and so on. However, it is difficult to balance the arrangement when the colors are mixed, which is why I recommended red and white in this case. Yuta, did you have a favorite color for roses?"

"No, I don't know much about roses. I just wondered because there were so many colors in the world I lived in."

"There are many kinds of roses in Yuta's world, aren't there?"

"Yeah, roses are such a popular flower that they kept improving the varieties until they finally made blue roses."

As I recall, blue roses were said to be impossible to make, but they were genetically modified or something like that. I remember being surprised that they wanted to make blue roses that badly.

"Oh, we have blue roses.

Dolly pointed her right hand at the ground, and a bud sprouted from the ground and a branch grew out of it, and a blue rose bloomed easily. ......You're right, it's magic, isn't it? Sometimes, magic can do things that are difficult to do with science, regardless of logic.

In this field, it is difficult to cheat knowledge. Even if you have the knowledge of genetic modification, you will almost certainly not be able to get the equipment to do it. So, is it chemistry that is precise and magic that is unreasonable?

"Thank you, Dolly. I've never seen blue roses before."

"Well, I'm glad you're happy, too, Yuta-san."

Dolly smiles. Dolly has no malice in her heart. She showed me the blue rose purely out of the goodness of her heart and easily exposed the weakness of science. ...... Well, I'm a liberal arts student and my intelligence is B to begin with, so I can't do much damage.

"Oh, by the way, the little spirits are going to be the main ones, aren't they? Even though it's hard to get hurt, are you okay with rose spikes or something?"

Plant thorns are very painful. I don't care if they were against me in the Adventurer's Guild, I don't want floating spirits or lower class spirits to feel pain. I don't think that a middle class spirit would run into a spiny plant, but I'm a little worried about a floating spirit or a lower class spirit whose tension has increased since they materialized.

"Oh, that's all right then. Please check the rose spikes.

I do as Dolly says and check the rose spikes.

"What? The spines are curled up. It doesn't hurt at all when I touch it with my hand."

"Yes, I was curious too, so I rounded them up."

There is a bumpy rise where the spike would have been. Is it wrong to eliminate the spikes rather than rounding them off? ...... Well, I guess not.

"Then there's nothing wrong with it."

Once relieved, the little army + Gina lead us around the Rose Garden. They do their best to tell us what they have done and what they have struggled with. From a professional's point of view, there may be some rough spots, but from mine, they look perfect.

"Yeah, I've had a chance to look around and it's even better than I expected. I'm sure the spirits that come to visit will be very happy."

I actually felt elegant walking around. It was a little uncomfortable because it was a rose garden, a world completely removed from my sphere of activity, but I definitely enjoyed it.

"Master, this is not all. We haven't seen it yet either, but we did our best to get the spirits to check it out. Master, I'd like you to ask Mr. Sylphy to take everyone to the sky, okay?"

"I still have something to do, okay, Sylphy, can you help me?"

I do as Gina asks and ask Sylphy to do the same.

"Yes, let's go then."

At the same time as Sylphy's words, our bodies float up into the sky.

"Yes, this is great! I'm amazed you thought of that."

Looking at the Rose Garden from the sky, we see a large single rose covering the entire site. Walking through the Rose Garden, I knew it was intricate, but I had no idea there was such a trick. How did they come up with the idea of arranging the flower beds and painting a big rose on the ground without any aerial photography?

"Good, we were a little nervous because we couldn't see it ourselves, but it's taking shape.

"Yes, I'm really glad it turned out so beautifully. Thanks to Marco's idea.

"I just thought that genies come to play with us from the sky. ......"

"Hey, big guy!"

Marco's words were the catalyst. They must have consulted with each other and thought carefully about how to build the rose garden. As a teacher, I am very impressed.

"Thank you all for creating such an amazing plaza. It's the best square I've ever seen."

Just a little ......, not quite what I had in mind, but a wonderful square has been created in paradise. Well, today is the day to celebrate. It's a great opportunity to reward the little army + Gina for their hard work, and we're going to serve them some Fire Dragon meat.

It's not that I'm trying to put the little army + Gina in a good mood by serving them delicious meat as an apology for doubting them.
