　When we went to consult Ruby and the others about soy sauce and miso, we discovered that Vita could control the fungus. The prospect of making soy sauce, miso, and even mayonnaise is a great feeling. I guess it's important to consult with someone when something difficult comes up, instead of worrying alone.

　Vita can even activate the bacteria and accelerate the ripening period by half. I'm too happy. After explaining the situation to Ruby and the others, the soybeans are cleaned and soaked in plenty of water.

"Yuta's brother, what are you going to do next?"

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

Hm?　I've got some work to do, but I need Ruby and the others' help tomorrow, so you're free to go."

　I was originally going to have Ruby and her team work on soy sauce and miso, but now that Vita seems to have cleared up the hard part, I'll be asking Ruby and her team a lot less.

　I'm almost certain that the miso will be ready by this point. As for the soy sauce, I'll be able to get some idea by asking Vita, and then I'll be able to ask Ruby and the others for their help.

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

Okay, I'll see you tomorrow!

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

Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow. There's nothing special to do with the soybeans, so just leave them as they are.

　I wave to Ruby and the others, who nod their heads in understanding, and head back to the house. Well, now we have more work to do. I didn't think we'd need to build such an extensive facility since we're still in the research phase, but miso seems ready to be made right away. I want to build a soy sauce warehouse and a miso warehouse by the end of the day.

　Since these are seasonings that I will make, it makes sense to build them in my space, not in the spirits' space. The building doesn't require much sense, and I don't have much time, so I can ask Nomos to build it for me.

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

　Let's start with the location. Should it be on the west side of the building so that Ruby and her friends can go there easily?　...... doesn't matter, any place in paradise is a margin of error for spirits who can fly.

　On the west side of the village of spirits, there will be soy sauce and miso warehouses near the rose garden. It is indeed a little different atmosphere. Well, one of the south of the rose garden is a paddy field. ...... I didn't know there would be a rose garden, so it's no wonder. We should think about moving the paddy field.

　I'll think about the location of the rice paddies later, but right now it's the location of the soy sauce and miso warehouses. The northeasternmost block, directly opposite to the village of spirits, should be fine. Let's go there and check it out. When we move to the northeast block, it is, of course, a flat block with only the ground. The spirits are flying around because of the proximity to the brewery.

　They are already flying around with wheat-like plants, so the spirits of the forest must have grown the wheat, which we can't see due to the rocky border. It took a while to decide on ale, but once the decision was made, the brewing process seems to be proceeding quite fast. I wonder how long it takes to complete an ale. There must be spirits of life in the brewery, so I guess it will be finished pretty soon. I'll have to remember to bring something to the brewery.

　Let's just leave the brewery here for now, and that's where nomos comes in. It's hard to summon him since he seems to be busy, but if we don't summon him, I don't think he'll be back for a while. ......Yeah, let's summon him.

"What?"

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

　You don't seem to be annoyed at being summoned at a difficult time. That's a relief.

"Sorry to bother you. I need you to do a little building for me, okay?"

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

"Building?　What kind of building are you going to build?　You don't expect me to have any sense, do you?"

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

　...... nomos, I guess you've been holding on to what you were told last time in the village of spirits. There is a subtle hint of melancholy in your eyes as you look at me. I'm sorry.

"This time I want you to build a soy sauce warehouse and a miso warehouse, but you don't have to have any particular sense of style or anything.

　If I may say so, when I saw miso and soy sauce warehouses on TV, I thought they were basically dimly lit. If it looks sunny, it would be difficult for bacteria to grow, and it would also be difficult to control the temperature. I would ask them to minimize the number of windows.

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

　As for the size of the storehouse, we don't need a big one, since we don't intend to spread miso and soy sauce, and we will only give them to Mr. Toruku and use them in Ruby's diner. I give Nomos a brief note of caution and ask him to take care of it.

"That's fine, but where are you going to build it?

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

It's not like it's the main building, so I'm thinking of using the end of the building. It's better to keep it away from the forest, just in case we need to make food. I want two buildings, about the size of a general store, near the outer boundary.

"Yes, please leave the sand out on the beach. You'll have to provide your own door.

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

I know. I'll take care of it.

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

　I take the sand from the beach and leave for a bit. Nomos lightly waves his right hand, and a soy sauce warehouse and a miso warehouse are built together. They have the same ceramic texture as the ones in the village of spirits.

"You've changed the shape of the buildings."

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

　The buildings are angular and slightly rounded with corners removed. It is the same technique used in the village of spirits, but I guess it is the best Nomos can do.

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

"Well, it would be confusing if they were the same. Well, other than that they are the same."

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

　Certainly it is easier to explain to someone if there is a difference. It's convenient to be able to talk about the square one or the round one.

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

"No, that's great. Thank you, Nomos."

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

"Fine. Is there anything else you need me to do?　If not, I'd better get back.

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

"Wait a minute. I don't have anything for you to make, but you've started brewing. Tell me about the brewery. Is everything all right?"

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

"That's right. When Deane made a passionate speech about the compatibility of edamame and ale at the brewery, the spirits who had been advocating other drinks were drawn in. It was easy to come to a consensus.

　Sounds like it's going just the way Sylphy told me it would.

"So you're harvesting the wheat now. Is everything going well?

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

Of course. They're the kind of guys who make sake for a living, so you shouldn't have any problems."

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

　......The spirit whose day job is to make sake...... isn't that called a spirit of sake?　I wonder if there is a spirit of sake. ...... No, there isn't, indeed. If we could create alcohol freely, we wouldn't have to worry about breweries.

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

"Well, when the ale is finished, should I bring in some edamame?"

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

"No, we can grow edamame with the spirits of the forest in the brewery, and it's easy enough to boil them.

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

"...... do you have salt?"

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

"Salt?　...... come to think of it, it needs to be seasoned."

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

　This is why I have a problem with spirits who have no interest in food. If left unchecked, he's likely to spatter salt on the edamame and ruin it.

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

"I'll bring you something, just let me know when the sake is ready."

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

"Mm ...... please."

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

　Since there seems to be nothing else to ask, I leave Nomos. The footsteps on the way home...... are flying, so the word "footsteps" is a bit odd. Maybe he was shocked that I thought he couldn't even handle salt.

　Well, let's check out the soy sauce and miso warehouses. For now, let's call the angular one the soy sauce warehouse and the rounded one the miso warehouse. Inside, it's just a big room. As ordered, the windows are small, which gives it a little more atmosphere.

　I remember a cartoon about a university of agriculture, where a fungus gets on a storehouse. It is unlikely that fungus would stick to a building made of clay like ceramics. It would be better to use wood in the warehouse. I should make a wooden stand while I make the door.

　I think I can make a barrel by having ...... Dolly join the wood, but I don't need to make a big barrel like the real job, so I'll try a sake barrel. I'll have to be careful to clean it carefully, because if the sake flavor gets on the soy sauce or miso, it will be a problem.

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

　Now, let's get out the wood and make what we need. I haven't been fighting much lately, so I feel like I'm using my pioneering tools the way they should be used.

　Yesterday, with Dolly's help, I finished all the doors and interiors of the soy sauce and miso warehouses. I simply made wooden pedestals for the barrels and set up some wooden beams and pillars in the rooms. The combination of pioneering tools and dolly is quite a cheat.

　Oh, Belle and Rain floated above Ruby's head and started to imitate her habit. ...... is it possible in this case because they look so cute?　Well, I mean, yes, I'm ...... not sure in Rain's case, and I'm not sure if he's ...... imitating her.

"Well, anyway, I'm going to make miso today. Please help me out."

　The little army + Gina and Ruby and the others cheerfully reply to my words. Except for Ruby, Gina, and Sarah, they probably don't understand what I'm talking about, but they seem to be enjoying themselves, so I guess it doesn't matter.

　In fact, Marco and Kikka are having a good conversation with each other, imagining what they are going to do as siblings. Sarah, stop smiling and explain it to them.

　The participants of the Great Spirits are Sylphy, Dolly, and Vita, while the rest of them (Dine, Nomos, and If) are absorbed in brewing alcohol in the brewery. The three participants have also set out chairs and tables and are in the graceful stance of a tea party. Just like at the harvest, they seem to be participating from a guardian's point of view.

"Okay, let's start the preparation. We need to cook a lot of soybeans first.

"It's gonna be a blast!"

　As I put the coals into the three grills I had taken out of my magic bag, Flare confidently pointed his hands at the grills. From her hands, three flames shot out like a flamethrower and engulfed the coals on the grills. After the flames from his hands were extinguished, the coals in the three baking pans were burning red hot. I had never imagined that all three of them would catch fire at once.

"Thank you, Flare!"

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

　I thanked Flair, who was being assaulted by Wafuwafu and Sheba, who seemed pleased with Flair's skill, and said, "That was easy!　After replying, Shiva licked him. Well, she doesn't mind, so I guess it's all right.

"Next, Rain, I need you to fill the three large pots with water with these soybeans.

　Lane responds with a flap of his right fin. I can understand this much. He's saying, "I'll take care of it. When I nodded, Rain let out a squeal and three balls of water flew out from the canal and landed in the pot. I wonder if they used water from the canal to save energy?

"Cue cue."

　As I'm thinking about it, Lane is squealing and offering me his head, as if he wants me to give him a compliment. ...... of course, I'm all about the praise and petting. After petting Rain firmly, I go back to my work, ignoring the slightly dumbfounded looks from Sylphy, Ruby and the others.

Okay, I'm going to boil the soybeans. We need to get rid of the lye, so I'll pick a person to be in charge. Belle and the others will take this left side pot, Gina and the others will take the middle pot, Fukuchan and the others will take the right side pot, and Ruby and the others will help with the overall work.

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

　I've never cooked soybeans before, but I've heard on cooking shows that black beans should be cooked over low heat while removing the lye, so I'm sure I can do the same. Maybe ....... I feel a little uneasy as I watch the little army of kids and Gina happily peering into the pot. I'll be sad if they fail.
