Soon after returning to paradise from the labyrinth city, many things have been happening. The confirmation of the sake island is still good. I am also happy that the spirit tree has somehow made the cherry blossoms bloom. But what should I do about the baby who seems to be the conscious body of the tree, staring at me with dull eyes? The development is so rapid that I can't keep up.

"Uh, uh, ...... hello?"

I don't know, but it seemed to me that he was greeting me somehow, so I lightly raised my right hand to greet him, just as I did with the consciousness of the spirit tree.

It seemed that I was right, and a smiling spirit tree flew toward me. Well, should I catch it? His hands are pointing at me, so I should just hug him, right? It's not a high-five, is it? It's smaller than Bell, and I'm afraid I might hurt it. .......

With my slightly trembling hands, I meticulously catch the conscious body of the spirit tree and manage to hold it in my arms.

Whew, can I think of this child as a spirit? I feel like I'm in the same boat, but there's something different about me, and it's hard to deal with. Despite my confusion, the spirit tree's conscious body is in a good mood, and it is playing happily in my arms. I beg you to be quiet.

"You're a pretty girl, aren't you? Usually, a conscious body is created when a child grows up to the level of an intermediate spirit. I guess she wanted to play with everyone as soon as possible.

...... It seems that the spirit tree created the conscious body quite flying. Maybe because paradise looked like fun? I'm a little glad if that's the case.

"Um, Dolly, is that okay?"

I doubt we can consider it the same as a normal birth, but it does mean premature birth, doesn't it?

"Yes. This is a sanctuary, so the growth of the spirit tree will not be inhibited. Even if a conscious body is created in its immature state, it will not be harmed.

"I see. It's all right if it's all right. So, is she a spirit? Also, why does it seem like you're kind of attached to me?"

Normally, it's not enough to say that it's okay if it's okay, but there are so many questions that I can't go into detail about every one of them. We need some information, even if it is rough.

"The conscious body of a spirit tree is a being similar to a spirit, but it is not a spirit. The main body of the tree is the spirit tree, and the consciousness of the spirit tree is the voice of the spirit tree. Therefore, it is not possible to make a contract with a conscious body. And the reason why the consciousness of the tree of spirits misses Mr. Yuta is because the consciousness of the tree of spirits understands that Mr. Yuta is the owner of the sanctuary and planted the seed of the tree of spirits. It means that Mr. Yuta is an important existence for the spirit tree that has taken root in this land.

I see, the consciousness of the spirit tree is like an avatar of the spirit tree.

"I planted the seed, but Dolly made the seed, didn't she?

If anything, Dolly is the more important one, isn't she?

"I am a spirit of the forest, so we have been good friends since before the spirit tree produced a conscious body. Now you are spoiled by Yuta-san, with whom you cannot usually communicate."

Oh, Dolly is the Great Spirit of the Forest. Come to think of it, it's easy to communicate with trees. So now you're trying to play with me, who normally can't communicate with you.

"So, Yuta is your father and Dolly is your mother. And I'm your sister. What a happy family!"

Deane suddenly threw a bomb. I would love to have a beautiful girl like Dolly as a bride, but I don't want her to have children when we are not even married yet.

"That would make Deene my daughter, wouldn't it?"

"...... Dad?"

Deanne, tilting her head cockily, is very pretty, but I don't want a daughter who could be thousands, or even tens of thousands of years older than I am.

"Deene must be this girl's aunt."

"Well, I'm your sister. Because I'm everyone's big sister.

Deane protests with puffed out cheeks. Even a genie doesn't like being an auntie, does she? And I don't understand what you mean by "everyone's big sister.

Oops, the consciousness of the spirit tree escaped from my arms and floated in front of me. What's going on?

"Stroke."

"He talked!"

"Hmm, the spirit tree's conscious body may be young, but it is highly intelligent. They can at least talk. But they are still really young, so words seem to be the best they can do."

Oh, yes, that's right. I was surprised that a baby could talk, but even if it looks like a baby, it's not a human baby. I should have known it when it was floating in the air, but since everyone except me and Gina and the others were flying normally, I was aware that it was natural for them to fly. I feel like I'm too much in touch with the other world.

"Moo!"

Huh? Somehow, the spirit tree's consciousness started to flutter. It's very cute, but what's going on?

"It seems that you want Yuta to pet you. Yuta-san frequently praises and pats Belle and her friends, so maybe he wants them to do the same thing."

"What? Am I petting the belles that often?"

The Great Spirits all nodded. I think I've been praising and petting the Belles every day without fail....... I feel a little embarrassed.

Well, I should forget this embarrassment and start praising and petting them like the Belles.

I feel uncomfortable when I'm conscious of it since I've been praising and petting them so much naturally these days, but the baby is looking at me with very expectant eyes, so I'd better put my energy into it.

"Well, thank you for always enriching the land of sanctuary."

"Ai."

The spirit tree's conscious body responds to the words of thanks, whether it understands the words properly or not. The lack of tongue is somewhat amusing.

"And thank you for showing me the beautiful cherry blossoms today.

Unare God Hand. With this supreme technique, which he has acquired by stroking Bell and the others every day without fail, he expresses his gratitude to the consciousness of the spirit tree.

"Is this what you wanted?"

"Ai."

Apparently satisfied, the baby nodded in satisfaction. Well, I was almost heartbroken if he wasn't satisfied because he laughed as if he were rolling around, he pressed his head against me to pet me more, and I repeatedly petted and praised him with even more enthusiasm.

"Oh, good morning. I'm sure you'll be very happy to hear that. ...... akachan-""cue""seireiju, ohana ga saibanai""kukoo""kobunka?"" ......"

Oops, looks like the Belles have finished their work. Usually they are more interested in the sweets on the table, but this time their eyes seem to be drawn to the baby and the cherry blossoms on the spirit tree.

Belle seems to be a little confused, looking at the tree and the baby. Maybe she doesn't know which way to go. Belle seems to go straight for the fun stuff, but when two things of equal interest come together, she seems to get confused.

"This girl is the consciousness of that spirit tree, and she made it bloom beautiful flowers.

Before I could explain the situation to the confused Bells ......, the Bells flocked to the spirit tree consciousness and began to greet it. Well, it doesn't matter, since the spirit tree's consciousness seems to be playing happily. Perhaps because they originally knew Bell and the others as spirit trees, they look happy to see each other.

Maybe she will stay here and we should introduce her to Gina and Ruby. I've been so busy with the baby that I forgot all about it. Anyway, the coffee shop is too small, so let's move to the base of the ...... spirit tree and explain to everyone.

"Master! Something's blooming!"

When I asked Sylphy to take me to the base of the spirit tree, Marco and Kikka came running toward me in a panic. The spirit tree can be seen from anywhere outside, so they must have noticed it.

"Marco, Kikka, there's no problem, please calm down. I'll explain what's going on when we all get together. In the meantime, Bell and the others, go get Nomos, Gina, Sara, Ruby and the others. If they are sleeping or you can't find them, just come back and take it easy.

The baby seemed a little concerned, but the belles were happy with their work and immediately went to the messenger. Come to think of it, I haven't thanked them for cleaning up.

......Maybe this is the kind of thing that when the second child is born, the older one will be sad because the younger one is preoccupied. Oh no, when Belle and the kids come back, I'm going to give them a lot of compliments, including about the cleaning.

**

"I see, the consciousness of the spirit tree. I don't understand ......, but the spirit tree grows in paradise, so it's safe to say that we'll be friends for a long time to come, right?"

When Bell and the others returned, I complimented them on their work, including thanking them for cleaning up as planned, and explained the situation to everyone assembled, which Gina summed up briefly. I don't really understand it either, but I think I'm probably right.

"Well, I guess you could say that. Be good to them."

However, there will be no problem since the consciousness of the spirit tree is already happily frolicking around surrounded by an army of little kids.

"Yoo-tah!"

While I was looking at the group of people who were fluttering around, Belle somehow flew into the air holding the consciousness of the spirit tree. Since Belle is also small, she is just barely holding the baby, which is a very funny sight.

However, if a human baby girl and a human child were to do the same thing, it would be an incredibly harrowing scene, as if they might drop the baby.

"Belle, what's wrong?"

"Yuta, what's your name?"

"Name? Yeah, it's inconvenient to have a name if you're going to live together in paradise. Well, Dolly, can I name her? I know it's not a contract because I'm not a genie, but will it cause any problems?"

"There is no problem, so you can name him whatever you like, Yuta-san."

"Okay."

Usually I have a lot of trouble naming things, but with this girl, it's easy. No, wait a minute. If her gender is a boy, we can't use this name.

"Uh, Dory. Do you know the s*x of this baby?"

Babies are cute whether they are boys or girls, and you can never be sure of their gender.

"She's a girl, isn't she?"

Oh, I beat the odds by a factor of two.

"Okay. Okay, spirit tree consciousness. Your name is Sakura. It may seem strange to name a spirit tree after another tree, but it's my favorite flower, and I think it goes well with your beautiful light pink hair. Do you mind?"

I can't think of any other name under the circumstances, can you? Oh, cherry would have been a good name. Well, it's too late now.

"Ai!"

He responded with a big smile, as if he liked it. Now there is a new resident in paradise. Well, it may be strange to call it an increase since the spirit trees were already growing, but it will surely make the place more lively, so I guess it's OK.

Well, now that we've decided that, we'll have a little extravagant cherry blossom viewing tonight, including a welcome party for the sakura. Let's make preparations.
