　The opening of the village of spirits. The little ones who came to play have exchanged their money and arrived at the cafeteria. It's a bit more chaotic than I had imagined, but the little ones seem to be enjoying themselves, so I guess it's a successful event.

　Working with Gina and the others, I take care of the floating spirits and the lower class spirits who are excited to be seated after ordering. They are waiting impatiently for their orders, alternately looking at the kitchen and the exchange ticket they received when they placed their order. He sometimes squeals, probably reciting his number that he was given.

"Hunya!"

　A floating spirit kitten that turned to me and mewed as if it wanted to say something? I go to the side of the ...... It has thick legs for a kitten, so it's probably a bobcat or leopard or some other type of animal that grows larger than a normal cat. But it's just adorable as it is right now.

"What's wrong?"

"Meow!"

　A kitten pushes its own redemption tag toward me. It doesn't look like it wants to show off, and I guess it's lost its number.

The number you have is eight. Don't forget it."

"Meow."

　The kitten nodded, meowed, and stared at the ticket. It seems to be repeating "number 8, number 8" so as not to forget.

"Number 8 is up!

　The dish is finished in good time, but the kitten in question is meowing and staring at the bill intently. Oh, wow, that's a pattern we couldn't uncover at the pre-opening.

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

Look, the number 8 has been called. Don't be in a hurry, just take your time and go get it.

　When I called out to the kitten, it said, "Huna!" He is startled and heads for the pickup counter next to the kitchen with a bill in his mouth. He must have understood my words, because he flies slowly.

　Worried, I follow the kitten and find Emme at the counter explaining how to serve the food. Dineh and Dolly are waiting around her to serve the food, but the kitten points with her paw at the kitchen wagon.

　The kitchen wagon seems to be very popular, as Emme, Deanne and Dolly are laughing at her. Emme puts a rough bird steak with tomato sauce on the kitchen wagon, and the kitten pushes the wagon with a waddling motion while staring at the food.

　Emme and the others look worried, so I tell them I'll go with them and follow the kitten. When she arrives at the table where I was sitting, she pushes the food on the table with her head and returns the wagon.

　It is worrisome to see her, but she seems to be able to do what is explained to her without any problem, since she has brought with her a spirit who understands her language and is conscious.

　The kitten returns in a hurry after the wagon has been safely brought and walks around the dishes with great interest and bites Rough Bird with trepidation. It must be Ruby's thoughtfulness that Rough Bird's steak is cut into pieces so that it is easy to eat.

　The kitten looks surprised once and then starts to gobble up the steak. There's rice and soup on the side, but she ignores it all, and is engrossed in the meat. At this rate, only white rice and soup will be left.

　Maybe I should let him eat freely, but it would be sad for him to finish his meal with rice and soup after he finished the main course first. Let me give you some advice. Still, if it's Kitten's style to eat the whole main course first, it's not my place to interfere anymore.

"Well, if you only eat the main meat, you'll miss the rest. Try the rice and soup next to the meat, it's delicious with the meat.

　Move next to the kitten and talk to it. The kitten looks at me with a puzzled expression, as if it heard my voice. Its mouth is red with tomato sauce. It seems that it only responded to my voice and did not understand what I said, so I explain to it again.

　After listening to me, the kitten takes a bite of the meat as if she is going to try it, and then puts some white rice in her mouth. Is this what you want? He is looking at me as if to say, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. So cute.

"Is it good?"

"Nyah!"

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

　He nodded, so I guess he liked it.

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

"Well, you can eat it as you like, but it tastes good with soup or white rice, so you can try different things."

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

　The kitten nodded and went back to eating. This time, he puts a mouthful of soup in his mouth and seems to try a few things. The kitten has had enough, and I continue my rounds.

　I walk slowly around the cafeteria, looking at the surroundings. Everyone seems to be enjoying the food, but it is the baby I am concerned about. They are trying their best to eat with their spoon and fork in their hands, but it looks like they are having a hard time. In a way, maybe the animal form is easier to eat because it can go through the mouth.

　Gina and the others are sitting next to the baby and helping her in various ways, as if they share the same opinion. Kikka is especially happy to feel like a big sister and feeds the baby with a big smile on her face. I feel a little uncomfortable to see the baby biting into the meat, but I guess it's OK because she is a spirit. Oh, it's Sylphy.

"Sylphie, you're in a lot of trouble, aren't you?

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

"Yes, it's harder than I thought. I shouldn't have put Bell and the others together with a bunch of kids who've barely eaten a meal in their lives."

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

　Sylphy seems to agree with me. Many of the little ones who will be coming to visit us have never eaten before. We may not be able to help them when we're out, so we'll have to think of a way.

　I leave Sylphy and go around the cafeteria again. It's smiling to see Wind-sama and Light-sama trying their best to take care of the lower class spirits and the floating spirits, but it's probably not what Wind-sama wanted to see.

"Yuta, from now on, I will include a certain number of intermediate level spirits in the group. In addition, I would like to increase the number of chaperones by about three, is that a problem?

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

　After the hurried rounds, we took a break and Mr. Alvard spoke to us. Before we could think of any countermeasures, Mr. Alvard suggested them to us. It would be a great help to have more chaperones, and it would be a lot easier since the intermediate level spirits would not be so much trouble.

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

"Yes, that would be very helpful.

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

"That would be great."

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

　I thought it would be a lot of work, but it looks like I can just throw it all in. But there's still lunch, snack, and dinner to go today. It's going to be a hard time yet. Mr. Alvard is also muttering that he wanted to reduce the number of chaperones and bring as many children as possible, but it was reckless.

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

　The reason why Mr. Alvard was the only chaperone was probably due to the limit of the number of people. They asked for around 30 people, so they packed as many children as they could. Mr. Wind and Mr. Light also intervened...

"Sylphy, let's consider the number limit separately for the children who come to play and for the chaperones.

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

"Yes, that would be better. Alvard, you'll have to make arrangements at the palace. And we can't help you every time, so please think about that too.

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

"Okay. We'll talk it over."

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

　I'm throwing myself at it, but I guess Sylphy is throwing herself at it too. Well, it's easier if we can coordinate elsewhere. Good luck, Mr. Alvard!

"Whew, I'm finally getting settled."

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

　I put my face on the dining room table and mutter to myself, and I hear Sylphy and the others sitting around me agreeing with me.

I hear Nomos' voice, "Well, I'm busy making sake," but I can't help but think it's a tsundere, so I leave it at that.

　After all the commotion at the inn, the general store, lunch, and snack, we finally have some time to relax.

　The children are now enjoying paradise freely, some decorating their rooms, some flying around paradise, some playing in the park, some in the rose garden, some in the spirit tree, some in the swimming pool, and some in each place.

　The most active group is Belle and her friends, Gina and her friends, and Fuchu and her friends. They are enjoying themselves while taking care of the children who have come to play with them. Gina seems to be having a bit of a hard time, but she is still young enough to handle it.

"But snack time was hard, wasn't it?

　Unusually, Vita says with a wry smile. It is unusual for Vita to show fatigue, but it was so hard that it was no wonder. The children were so excited about their first snack that they burst into the cafeteria and rushed to the order counter for other kinds of desserts after finishing one.

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

　While waiting for their orders, they jumped around the spirits who were eating desserts they had never had before and dropped their redemption tags. It's a heavenly dance of this and that.

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

　In the midst of all this, Light-sama stares intently at the dessert while taking care of the children. She is a cute little ball rabbit, but she looks strangely melancholy, and we decide to secretly bring her some dessert later. I'd better not forget.

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

　I'm sure they would have enjoyed it more if the new dessert was ready, but since we didn't have that much time to spare, I'll let them just have a taste of the dessert Ruby made this time.

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

　If Mr. Wind was interested in desserts, he would have enjoyed them with us next to the children, but Mr. Light is crippled in many ways because he is so concerned about his dignity.

"Maybe every time a new kid comes, until he settles down, there will be a commotion like that for a while."

"Yuta. I think my sister is going to have a breakdown.

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

"Even I can't match the energy of those kids."

　Unusually, Dineh and If are very bearish in their comments. This reaction from these two positive people suggests that being pushed around by the children was hard on them. It is not only physically but also mentally exhausting to deal with such energetic children.

"Don't worry, Mr. Alvard will take care of it next time. So the problem is today and tomorrow. ......

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

　All the great spirits looked at each other and laughed at my words. I think to myself, it's going to be a long battle until the kids come home the day after tomorrow. ...... I think it's time to end this break and do a little more work, maybe take a look around.

I'm going to take a look around paradise. Who wants to go with me?"

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

"............ then I'll go with you."

　Sylphy offered to help me after a conflict. The other Great Spirits were either smiling or looking away, and no one was moving. It seems they need a little more rest.

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

"Well, Dineh and the others, after you have rested a little longer, I'm counting on you to do your best. When the children return to the inn, we will serve them drinks.

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

　The faces of the Great Spirits brightened a little. At this rate, we should be able to hold out until the day after tomorrow. I set out with Sylphy to make the rounds. Ruby and the others are waiting at the store.
