Chapter 30: Kaito wants to build a school in the city.
That morning, I was on my way to Sena's house.
Fields, orchards and ranches are now spread on the back of the Toyok.u.mo, making for a great scenary.
Inhaling the air, the scent of gra.s.s and soil tickled the nasal pa.s.sages.
A gentle scent of nature reminds me of my hometown and I smiled.
"Good morning, Mr. Kaito!"
It was Al, a young bird-like Birdmen that resembled an eagle.
A mulberry with soil is carried on his shoulder.
"Good morning, Al. Were you working in the field?"
"Yes. I'm cultivating the land I got from Mr. Kaito."
"I see. Good luck."
"Yes! Once the crop is ready, I will take it to Mr Kaito first!"
I laughed and nodded and left.
The a.s.signment of the work of the beastmen is based on the medical examination data so it was accepted with no particular complaint. In fact they were all really accepting that I was somewhat let down.
After all, everyone wanted to start with something they were good at.
However, when we can afford it, there may be other things they may want to do. At that time, I told them to come to me.
The only job you can do in the city today is to take care of agriculture and livestock, but since the processing industry in the future is antic.i.p.ated, the range of jobs that can be selected will eventually expand.
For example, the Alcohol brewers Garraf wants to do, and the work of making clothing and daily necessities is already in everyone's sight.
What you need can be made by the Toyok.u.mo, but you should avoid extra help where the beastmen are trying to stand on their own feet.
So, after the work a.s.signment was decided, the working rabbits were retracted into the s.h.i.+p. Well, rabbits are still in operation, as they need extra resources.
Wood, stone, minerals, etc. must rely on outside.
However, I am getting tired of flying down every single time and working.
I have Sena who I handed over the small gravity control device to help me, but We also have to pay attention to running the city, honestly, I'm feeling a little pushed back with all the responsibilities.
Is there any good idea that will solve this problem?
While thinking and walking, the other beastmen greeted one after another.
"h.e.l.lo Mr Kaito! Good morning!"
"Master Kaito, it's good weather today! Well, it's natural because it's in the sky!"
"Mr. Kaito, if you like, please have a cup of tea. Welcome!"
"Mr. Kaito, the condition of the prostheses I got is awesome! Thank you!"
"Brother Kaito, good morning!"
And just like that, because everyone comes and talks to me, it's taking a long time to reach Sena's house.
But it's a good feeling to get acquainted in this way.
As you listen, you can hear labor songs from here and there.
The city was lively from the morning.
Whats left is building everyone's house, which will shape the city.
Land has been allocated along with the work, but no house has yet been built. There are many things to decide before building.
I was heading to Sena's house to discuss that.
†
"Mr Kaito, come on in! I'll serve you tea right away!"
Sena welcomes me and knows why I came.
After waiting in the living room and bringing me tea, we started talking.
"Well, this is the wishes of everyone, in terms of their houses."
What Sena put on the table was a tablet device.
It was given to the city leader when it was decided, and is used for various office work. Of course, Sena can't read characters, so she mainly uses voice input.
The operation panel also has a user interface that can be easily understood.
Everyone's wishes for their houses, were all something Sena had listened from everyone in the city and has been recorded using the voice recorder. I can just listen to it by playing it but I'm fine with just reading the text.
After reading everything, I smiled at the content.
"After all, everyone's wishes are all really different."
Sena nods and laughs feeling troubled.
"That's right. I understand their feeling, but ..."
Beastmen are originally human but have the characteristics of animalized animals.
It was not limited to physical abilities, but also manifested in lifestyles, and therefore, the style of home required by each race was very different.
It would've been fine if they are particular about the interior and appearance, but what they wanted was stuff like wanting their house underground, on a tree, or even on water.
By the way, the beastmen who wanted to build on the water was a race of the sea racc.o.o.n,Seracc.o.o.n-men with thick fur, sharp front teeth, and a flat tail like oars.
Originally, they seemed to have lived in a forest river, so they misses water.
"But it's a bit difficult for a house to be on the water ..."
"It's possible if you want to do it, but then you have to balance with other houses ..."
As a matter of fact, granting all wishes is an easy thing for Toyok.u.mo.
But that's the story when I saw only the individual.
If you want to build a house on the water, you need extra land.
Although there a lot of left over s.p.a.ce behind the toyok.u.mo, it is not good to give too much preferential treatment to certain people given the population growth in the future.
So it was me and Sena's view that it was possible but impossible at the same time.
It's more or less, similar for other wishes as well.
"But I want to do it to some extent. It's a house that they will live for a long time."
"Certainly, but is there a better way?"
"I'm thinking about that now. Let's come up with various ideas."
"I understand! I'll do my best!"
Then I and Sena talked about the design of the house for the beasts.
When it was difficult to convey by words alone, we drew on the tablet.
I learned today in here that Sena really had a really good apt.i.tude for drawing.
At least, it's definitely better than me.
Perhaps her artistic sense is high?
She was so good at drawing, so I complimented her and Sena visibly blushed.
"It's not a big deal, it doesn't help even if the picture is good."
"That's not the case. In fact, thanks to Sena's drawing, consultations are progressing really nicely."
"……Is that so?"
"That's right."
"Then that's good. I'm glad to be of some help to Mr. Kaito."
Sena was really happy and smiled exposing her tooth.
Well, there are times when the talents you didn't even know can blossom.
People are a treasure trove of possibilities.
Then I want to give a place where I can make use of people's individual talents.
And for that, you'll need a place to get to know yourself.
There seems to be much more I can do for the beastmen.
†
Eventually, the discussion of the beastmen's house would be carried over tomorrow.
Even after the lunch break and the sun set, the ideas didn't work out. There is no answer even if you think with a tired head, so it will be tomorrow.
Once we have the idea, you can build a house in no time.
Because the water supply, sewage, and electricity need to pa.s.s through, we are going to mobilize working rabbits who are working separately inside the s.h.i.+p.
As expected, this kind of help should be fine.
It seems pitiful to instruct hard-working beasts to build more homes. The house is a gift to those who are working hard.
We plan to put home appliances such as was.h.i.+ng machines and refrigerators in each house, so we want other beasts to know that convenience as soon as possible.
After the discussion, I ended up having dinner at Sena's house.
While Sena was in the kitchen, she was thinking of the house alone, and Nao, s.h.i.+lo,Kuro, Balaina and Israphel came back.
They had a fis.h.i.+ng rod and a cooler box in their hands, so he seemed to be catching cloud fish again. Balaina seemed to have accompanied them.
"Welcome back. How did it go?"
"Perfect! We had a big catch!"
"Tons nya!" "A lot of fishes nya!"
When I saw the content inside the cooler box, it was certainly filled with cloud fish.
"Well done! You guys did great!"
As I stroked their head and complimented them, they squinted and throbbed.
Then, a telepathy comes from the Balaina.
`` Please praise Isrpahel too Captain Kaito . ''
"……Huh? Why? 』
"Israphel also caught a lot of cloud fish. So please praise her. Children grow from being praised you know? 』
"Huh ... I see."
It seems like Israphel who lived on Balaina's back seemed to have troubled Sena and the rest.
She seems to be mainly following Nao, s.h.i.+ro and Kuro to fis.h.i.+ng cloud fishes.
I'm glad she is working seriously without any problems, but should I really praise her?
No, it's good to praise, but will she be happy to be praised by me?
First of all she is not my child. Rather, she is ten times older then me. Eh, can I give praise to someone with such huge age difference?
When I looked uneasy and looked at Israphel, she was giving me a meaningful glance.
Oh, she really want me to really praise her ...
Uh ... no way ...
While I'm puzzled, Israphel looks at me as if she wanted to be complimented.
Well, in that case, should I just praise her?
"Yeah, well done, Israphel you did good."
When I stroked her head like I did for Nao, Israphel--
"Huh"
Laughed nihilistically and snorted.
I regretted praising her.
†
Dinner at Sena's house was as friendly as usual.
Everyone was satisfied with the delicious fish dishes, and now they were chatting peacefully.
I looked at them,
What kind of adults will these girls be?
I thought. It is fun just imagining their future.
So I decided to announce my thoughts here.
"Everyone I have something to talk about. I want you all to listen."
I said, everyone's face was turned here.
"What is it Mr Kaito?"
"It's important for Sena, the leader of the city. I want you to listen closely
"Wow, I understand! Please!"
I laughed and nodded at Sena, who corrected her posture, and continued on.
"I'm thinking of opening a school in this city."
