　I was planning to take it easy, but I unexpectedly had a deep conversation with Nomos. I got a glimpse of why the relationship between spirits and humans is not so good. He has completely lost all credibility. Well, there's no point in worrying about the past misdeeds of the human race if I'm from another world.

　I'll just enjoy the company of spirits and try my best to raise a proper genie and improve the reputation of genies.

　...... so what are we going to do now? Sylphy, Gina and the others went to destroy the nest of the undead, Belle and the others are playing with the spirit tree, Dine and the others are distilling, and Nomos went to meet the king of spirits. I've been looking around the base, and I can't think of anything to do on my own. But it's not the same thing to slack off at the pool right after having a serious talk.

　......Yes!　Let's ask Dolly about the coffee. My ideal life in another world requires the aroma and bitterness of coffee. I'd add sugar and milk, too.

　I head to the distillery and peek inside, where Dine, Dolly, and If are chatting happily. Nomos didn't run away because of this atmosphere, did he?

"Oh, Yuta, what's wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Deanne has noticed. I'll have to go inside now. I enter the distillery feeling somewhat self-conscious. Normally I wouldn't mind, but it takes some guts to barge in on a group of women talking.

"Sorry to interrupt, I just have a quick question for Dolly, is this a good time?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Oh, for me?　Yes, sir?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Dolly's face was a little puzzled, as if she didn't expect to be asked to speak.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Can I ask you to take a look at this?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He shows Dolly a picture of a coffee package.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I want the fruit of this picture, do you know what it is?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Dolly ponders, "Hmmm," she says. There should be coffee because there is tea. Not to say instant coffee, but roasted coffee would be nice. I'd go buy it in another country.

"This is a ...... picture, so I can't be sure, but it looks like the berries that children snack on in mountain villages. They are not distributed because there are only a few edible parts, but I think they are relatively easy to find."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... Are coffee berries delicious?　

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, Dolly, look at this picture over here, these are the seeds that are inside the berries, but we need these seeds. They're black because they've been roasted and charred, but are they in the berries Dolly was talking about?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, they are. The seeds are large, so there is not much pulp.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Coffee berries seem likely. But I wonder if they are not distributed. ...... It will be hard to collect them. If I tell them I'll buy them, can I collect them?　I think it would be faster and more reliable to ask Dolly to grow them for us. I'd like to have her produce the seeds and make coffee from them, but I'm afraid that's not possible.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Dolly, give me one of these seeds for now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I observe the seeds that Dolly has produced for me. Well, the color is cream, almost white, but the shape is similar. If dried and roasted, they would be the coffee beans I know. What do you think?　We have some extra space, so why don't we try our hand at growing coffee?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yuta-san, are you going to use these seeds instead of the pulp?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As I was struggling with this, Dolly asked me a question with interest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yeah, a drink made from these seeds is very popular in the world where I was from. I love it."

　In my opinion, 70% of Japanese people like coffee, including coffee milk.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Wow, what does it taste like?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Deanne has joined the conversation. Did the fact that it was a beverage tug at her heartstrings?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"It smells good and has a bitter and sour taste."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... Huh?　You don't sound so good yourself. How can I describe the taste of coffee?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yuta, you don't sound very delicious. Does it taste good?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Deanne puts her hand over her mouth and tilts her head. I'm sorry I'm not expressive enough. It would be easier to serve instant coffee, but without Sylphy and Nomos, it seems a bit different to serve something from another world.

"I add sugar and milk to adjust the taste, but some people say it tastes best just as it is. Well, I don't know if that's what people in this world like. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I don't like black either. It's bitter, and I'm pretty sure the Belles won't like it. I wonder if they'd like coffee milk?　I should have bought some cheese and milk since we have it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, it will take time to grow the fruit and process it, so we'll have to wait until the next time we go to the labyrinth city. Now that we have eggs and milk, we can make carbonara like we promised Sylphy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I've heard that they make it with cheese and eggs, but I've never made it before, so I'll just wait until we can get milk.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'd like to try some too. Is it bitter like ale?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If asked me a difficult question. How about ale and coffee ......?　Is coffee bitter because it's roasted?　I don't know why ale is bitter. I don't know why ale has bitterness, but it's not like it's burnt, so I think it's a little different.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think the bitterness is different from that of an ale. Well, I'll do my best to make it, and you'll see."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"A different bitterness. Sounds interesting, I'm looking forward to it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　They got their hopes up. Unless there is a lot of coffee around, I wonder if people who don't know anything about coffee will be convinced by that black drink.　I'm just worried.

"Ha ha ...... I'll do my best."

"Then plant these seeds according to Tamamo's instructions."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.

　The belles reply cheerfully. I thought about waiting until Gina and the others came back anyway, but I had no time to waste and there would be plenty of opportunities for farm work, so I decided to go ahead and do it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Well, let's get to work!

"yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa yessa."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　At my command, the belles saluted and rushed to Tamamo. Tamamo was used to this and quickly indicated where the seeds were to be planted.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Koo, koo, koo!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Tamamo, who had finished giving instructions to Bell and the others, looked at me and tapped the ground. I guess he wants me to plant the seed there. I pat Tamamo's head and plant the seed.

　I'm getting used to this kind of farm work. I leave most of the growing to Dolly, so all I do is plant and harvest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Planting coffee seeds, one by one. Flair makes a small explosion in the ground, makes a hole and puts the seed in. He has to backfill the hole with his own hands, but if he's not harvesting, he has a surprisingly good way of doing it. I am a little impressed. He finishes planting the seeds quickly, and gets Rain to water them generously.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I guess that's it. Thank you all."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I pat the belles who are crowding around me and thank them for their hard work. The farm work seems to get faster each time we do it. I had intended to kill some time, but it was over too easily.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Dolly, please make the seeds grow!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　For a moment I thought about asking him to adjust the coffee trees so that they would not grow too high, but I decided against it. Sarah and the others have more flesh, but they are still too small to harvest, but with the help of the spirits, it will be a piece of cake. It will be good training.

"I understand."

　Dolly steps forward and waves her hand lightly, and a sprout emerges from the ground and begins to grow. It reminds me of Jiuri no matter how many times I see it.

　......I didn't know coffee trees were like this. The trunk of the tree is not very thick. The leaves are dark green and shiny like wax.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is very different from the kind of tree you see in the park. ...... I've never paid attention to coffee trees. In Japan, I drank coffee every day, but I never paid attention to the trees.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm done.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you Dolly, I should give it a little time to produce fruit, right?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, and then you should put in new soil and let it acclimate."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, sir. Tulu, I'll get the soil out, can you mix it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Tulu nodded his head. He takes out the soil from the forest from his magic bag. Tulu waves his hand, and the soil moves and mixes with the earth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Nomos would have mixed it all at once, but Tulu is not able to do it yet, so he is mixing the soil in sections. Still, it seems to be very fast. Even a pioneer tool would not be able to mix the soil so neatly because of his lack of skill. He is indeed the spirit of the soil.

　But ...... yeah, awesome. Coffee fields in my base?　Forest?　I've got it. Now I can drink all the coffee I want if the processing goes well. The base is getting better and better.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There are fields and rice paddies and trees that bear fruit. I've started keeping guavards, so I can get eggs. Now all that's left is meat. ...... It all depends on the spirit of life.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Are there cows and pigs?　I feel like I've only eaten demon meat since I came to the other world. ...... please don't raise orcs and roughbirds. If it is not in the land of the dead, we can get meat by hunting or something, but if there are no demons to eat, we can't do anything.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We can get seafood because of the proximity to the sea. If we can get meat, we will be able to live a very fulfilling life in terms of food. What else is missing here besides food?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Clothing and shelter are bought, but I'm happy enough with them. ......I guess it's entertainment. We have a pool and a ball, but nothing else to play with. Sara and her friends must be bored and need some entertainment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It's fine to make something to play indoors, but I want them to play outside. We have a lot of space left over, so why don't we make a park out of one block?　Adding a field athletic element would be even more fun.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　...... Hmmm, just a thought, but I think it's a good idea. The level of the child is so strong that it is hard to believe that he is a child, but he is a genie so there is no need for intense action. In everyday life, they can only walk or run.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It would be a good use of space, and they would be more athletic if they have fun playing around. Let's build a park. It's just an idea, but as they say, the moment you think of it, it's the day you think of it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Well, if we are going to build a park, would it be better to make the ground grassy rather than dirt?　...... Since it will be hard to get hurt if you fall down and there will be no dust, let's make it a luxurious lawn park.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'd like to build it right away, but I don't have nomos and I can't do it right away. Let's plant a lawn and think about what kind of playground equipment we should put. I can make a slide, a jungle gym, a swing ......, and many other things that I can think of simply. Yeah, I'm motivated. First, I'll get Bell and the kids to help me plant the lawn and get it ready.
