We experienced all the facilities in the village of spirits. The exchange office, the cafeteria, the inn, and the general store all had a few things that could be improved, but with a little work, they should be fine. Above all, Belle and Fuchu were very happy, so the children who come to the village of spirits will be able to enjoy themselves as well.

Belle and Fuchu went back and forth between the general store and the inn, renting items they liked and displaying them in the inn as they pleased. I told them that they could rent items in bulk and carry them to the inn, but they seemed to prefer renting one item at a time and decorating the inn one by one. This puts more burden on Emme, but she seems to be fine with it since it keeps her busy and happy.

The room at the inn decorated by Belle and Fukuchan was ...... somewhat chaotic. As a result of each of them asserting their own values with all their might, there were pots and pans lined up in a row (where Moon and Puru-chan were housed), many balls lying on the floor (where Sheba was playing with them with all her might), and no sense of unity at all.

However, each of them seemed to be happy to see the items they had chosen decorated in their rooms, and they were happy to check and reposition the items they had borrowed. The chaos in the room is not a problem as long as they are having a good time.

Belle, Fuchu, and the other guests enjoy their rooms in the morning and then have lunch again at Ruby's cafeteria. After playing in the Spirit Tree, the park, and the Rose Garden to refresh their stomachs, they arrived at Ruby's cafeteria again at snack time to enjoy pudding, ice cream, and crepes.

After that, they seemed to be free to do whatever they wanted, flying around in the paradise or working on their own rooms. By now, dinner is over and the spirits are probably playing with each other in their rooms at the inn.

The spirits who come to visit the village probably do the same. Even if we add more stores and facilities in the future, the current situation would still be enjoyable at the very least. I have asked Gina and the others for their opinions, and we are going to have a meeting with myself, the spirits, and Ruby and the others.

"Well, I don't think we need to limit the purchase of spirit money, sister!"

"That's right. You don't need it.

"Yuta's brother, why do you have to go to the trouble of restricting it? I'm not looking to make a profit, so I want you to eat a lot and have fun, okay?"

I knew it! You were right to put this last on the agenda. We discussed the problems we found during today's pre-opening, and so far so good. The missing spirit stones were also decided to be spirit money since spirits exchange them for money, and the meeting could have ended immediately if this agenda item had passed easily. .......

"It's simple, but we don't have enough alcohol. Even if spirits make their own alcohol, they also drink alcohol made by others, don't they? Especially now that we just started making sake, and if more people start drinking, we won't be able to keep up with our purchases. People will drink as much as there is alcohol, so there should be a limit. I think it would be less of a problem if we ease up a little bit, considering the availability and the brewery's production."

No one has mentioned alcohol, but I'll go ahead and say that at least Dine and Nomos are against it because it's probably the reason they are against it. It is hard to prepare unlimited amount of alcohol for the spirits who come from outside to enjoy drinking, when six large spirits can easily empty several barrels in one night.

Even now, we are buying too much alcohol in the labyrinth city. If we don't limit it, we will have to go to various cities to buy alcohol in different places. That would be too much trouble.

"Hmm, then as the brewery's production increases, the limit on the purchase of spirit money will be loosened, won't it?"

"Well, if you have enough booze on hand, you don't need to limit your purchases."

I would like to limit the amount of alcohol I drink, but I am afraid of what will happen if I do so. The best we can do is to put a little financial string around our necks and moderate our consumption of alcohol.

Then a long discussion began. We decided that the problems of the village of spirits should be solved, and even the important event of the opening of the village of spirits could be done in about five days after the notification of the palace of spirits, taking into consideration the opinions of Ruby and the others. The discussion about alcohol was surprisingly detailed.

The number of people coming to the village of spirits, the amount of brew, the price of alcohol, the conditions for relaxation, etc., are discussed in a contentious manner.

Basically, the spirits want to drink as much alcohol as possible, so they have no allies. Ruby and the others seem to like to drink with their food, and are completely unreliable. If anything, I'm one of those people who prefer to drink freely, so why am I trying so hard on my own?

As a result of the lonely battle, the rules were as follows when the tavern was completed in the early days.

The limit of purchasing spirit coins is five per day.

The price of alcohol is adjusted to 500 elt per glass for alcohol purchased in the village, except for spirits. The price of alcohol made in the breweries of Paradise is 200 ELT per glass.

The bars will be opened only after the brewery has finished its work and there is enough alcohol to distribute to the spirits.

If you want to expand the bar, please contact me for advice. No private rooms are to be built in the bar except for the staff.

This is all that has been decided after a long discussion. Other details were postponed. Well, with the price of alcohol in the village more than doubled, spirits who want to drink in quantity will mainly use alcohol made in paradise. As far as I'm concerned, it's a pretty satisfying result.

I feel a little uneasy about the enthusiasm of Sylphy and the others now that they have a clear purpose, but the more alcohol they have in the brewery, the less they consume of the alcohol they bought in the village. If most of the paradise does not become a bar, there is no need for me to interfere any more.

All that remains is to prepare for the opening of the village in five days. Ruby and the others will take care of the stores, so what should I do? I don't think it would work even if I made something suddenly in this situation. I should prepare for the opening banquet of the village and make a patrol of the whole paradise.

I'll put out a keg of sake for Sylphy and Ruby who say they want to drink with us now that the meeting is over.

**

I wake up in the morning, have a cup of coffee as usual, and leave the room. ...... I feel a little lonely without Belle and the others to greet me. When I went to the living room, I found only my disciples gathered in the living room. The others are lying on the floor ...... with empty wine barrels. ...... I think about it, this scene is not good for my education either.

Sylphy and the others are going to start working on the opening of the village and the brewery today, so I guess they won't be attending the breakfast. I feel like an educational mom, but I'll remind them to put the barrels away and put them away next time.

"Good morning, Gina, Sara, Marco, Kikka."

Good morning, master. Good morning, master. Good morning, master. Good morning.

It's kind of weird that there are only humans here.

"Really? Until we became a sanctuary, we could only feel the presence of others, so it doesn't feel too strange. It's lonely, though."

"Will Huku and Puru-chan be okay?"

"Uri is strong, he'll be fine."

"Mame-chan Shinpai ......"

Come to think of it, scenes like the one Gina and her friends are seeing now were the norm not so long ago. But seeing Gina and the others looking so worried, I'm sorry that my overprotectiveness toward Belle and the others seems to have transferred over to them.

"Don't worry about them, they are spirits. They are going to have breakfast and come back, so we should finish breakfast and wait for them. Help me put the food on the table."

......Cooking for five people......I usually have a big table full of food, so I feel lonely even in these situations without the genie. Well, since I don't have to take care of Belle and her family and Gina and her family don't have to take care of Fuchu and her family, we will be able to eat slowly. It's not a bad idea to have a long talk with my disciples.

I have breakfast while talking with Gina and the others in a relaxed manner, and relax in the living room. It was a good time to talk about what we want to do and how we feel about our lives now. I'll try to take time to talk with Gina and the others more regularly in the future. It was a good thing that I recognized that before I knew it, Gina and the others were feeling like mothers who were busy raising their children.

While we were relaxing in a good mood, the front door opened and we could hear them happily chirping. It seemed that Belle and her friends had returned. They used to come in from anywhere before they materialized, but now that they've materialized, they've been using the front door properly, which is very impressive. 

"Yoo-tah, I'm home!" "Queue, I'm back!" "Coooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!" ......"

As I looked toward the entrance, I saw Belle and Fukuchan and the others who had stayed overnight at the inn came back in high spirits. Their bright smiles tell us that they had a good time, but I think I should teach Freya how to say "I'm home" .......

In the first place, Flair uses a lot of ifs ...... ifs ...... in what situation did he use that word? It's a word used by heroes or yankees a long time ago.

"Hey, guys, welcome back. We were going to have breakfast in the cafeteria and then come back, but did you eat?"

When I woke up, there was only a barrel of booze lying around, so Ruby and the others should be back safe and sound. But I was a little worried because Deanne was making a big deal about drinking spirits too. Even Sylphy and the others would have been drunk if they had materialized.

"I ate!" "Coo-coo!" "That was delicious!" "Coo-coo!" "I'm so happy!" ............"

Ruby and her friends are back safe and sound, and the food is ready. Fukuchan and the others are rubbing their faces against Gina's after saying morning greetings to her and the others. We were going to make the rounds of the paradise today, but we'll have to hear what Belle and the others have to say first. They must have really enjoyed their sleepover, because they're ready to talk.

**

Four days have passed since the Belles' sleepover. In the meantime, I have been making my rounds of the paradise and preparing for the opening of the village of the spirits. In the evenings, I thought about my solo travel plans and the house where Shilfi and the others would live. It's strange how having something to look forward to makes you work harder.

The opening of the village of spirits, the solo trip, the emotional meeting of Mer and Meraru. The order of the house of Sylphy and the others, and the 100th level of the labyrinth.... And if Gina and her friends reach the volcano, the Adventurers' Guild will have no choice but to take a new look at the spiritists. Well, Gina and the others will need a little more training, so we'll have to wait and see.

It's a given that we will open the village and see how things go for a while, but after that is the problem. It is difficult to decide which comes first, the solo trip or the emotional meeting between Mel and Meral ....... Meral will be waiting for me, but if I do this first, I'll have to stay in the labyrinth city for a while. .......

I don't want to make Meral wait too long for my desire. But I can't wait to enjoy my trip alone. Oh, I can make a day trip to pick up Mel and Meral.

So I'll let him spend some time in paradise, and I'll invite my guests to travel alone ...... while I'm there, and I'll have to think better about the problem of having one person playing around somewhere else ....... I think I'd better take my time for the emotional meeting between Mel and Meral, and maybe I'll travel alone first. Then I'll be on my way to the city at night .......

"Yuta, your face is weird. What's wrong?"

"Sylphy, at least tell me your face isn't creepy, but your expression is."

"Oh, I'm sorry. So why did you have a weird expression on your face?"

I'm sure Sylphy's words are not malicious, but she's trying to tease us. Even if her expression doesn't change much, I can tell.

"I was thinking about the opening of the village tomorrow. I was smiling because I was happy to see paradise developing little by little."

"Really? And then she looked like Marie, who was thinking about making a profit, right?"

You've got a lust-filled, lowly look on your face. ...... So far Sylphy thinks my solo trip is a healthy one. I have to be careful not to get caught. Let's get off the subject first and go over the opening procedures for tomorrow's village opening.
