　Having finished the soy sauce and miso, I looked back at my life again, and the reality of my happy retirement state frightened me. I feel that if I'm happy and comfortable, it's fine, but I'm strangely anxious.

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

　So, on the fifth day of feeling anxious, I came to the ruins where Mr. Victor and his friends were excavating in the kingdom of Rosofia.

　It's an unintelligible behavior to escape from the reality of happiness, but it's not a bad one since Sara can meet her brother, Mr. Viktor.

　Since I've been taking care of Sakura for the next five days, I have some time to spare, so I'm going to spend some time to search for myself. I'm a little embarrassed to say that I'm looking for myself like an adolescent.

"Yuta-dono, Sara, and the others, it's been a long time!

　When I landed directly at the ruins, Mr. Victor and Mr. Becker came running up to me with smiles on their faces.

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

　It was easy to be a little surprised when they flew directly to me. I guess it was not a mistake to be frank at that time.

"It's been a while. Mr. Victor, Mr. Becker. Well, you know, ...... you look very well."

　Mr. Viktor used to look like a gaijin mercenary, but he has been upgraded to a black-tanned, muscular, and hard-working man.　He is. The shovel in his hand looks too good.

　Becker, who used to be a nobleman and looked like a warrior, has turned into a muscular, hard-working old man.

"Ha-ha-ha...yes...you're right. Digging holes, hauling dirt, searching for something of value. I guess this life suits me!"

"I have a bad back, but I feel strangely well. When the treasure comes out, it burns.

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

　I don't understand what it's like to be a hard worker, but since the two of them are taking the lead in digging holes when they can leave it to their subordinates, it must be a good fit for them.

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

　Their smiles have become a little too optimistic, and I'm worried that they may have forgotten the purpose of returning to the nobility.

"Well, I'm glad you are well. But, haven't the number of people increased?　You have children, don't you?"

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

　The kids look older than Sarah and the kids. Junior high school age, maybe?

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

　This place is more than ten days' walk from the capital, and there are demons here, so it's pretty dangerous, but is it safe?

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

"Yes, we left the young children and a certain number of men at the clan house in King's Landing, and called the rest here. The ruins are very large."

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

　It's a big place. Nomos said that there was a town there, and I can't imagine how long it would take to finish the excavation with only a few people.

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

"Still, aren't those kids dangerous?"

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

　He asks a question while pointing at two junior high school students who are carrying dirt with a mocco-like device.

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

"Yes, they are young, but they will be fine. They are trained as knights and will not be sent to fight against demons. The main purpose is to train their bodies."

　Are you saying that civil engineering work is treated as muscle training?　I think the muscles needed are different between knight and civil engineering work, is it ok?

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

　...... Well, okay. It's good to be physically active.

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

"So, how can I help you now, Mr. Yuta?"

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

　As I was having trouble explaining about muscles, Mr. Becker changed the subject. Thank God.

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

"I was curious to know what was going on at the site, and I wanted to take Sara to see Mr. Victor, so I just came by. I brought some souvenirs for you to look forward to."

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

　The purpose of my self-discovery is a bit embarrassing, so I'll keep it to myself.

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

"Oh, thank you very much."

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

　Mr. Viktor and Mr. Becker's expressions turn into smiles. I guess they remember that I brought them some drinks the last few times they came here.

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

　It seems that we can manage to gather food around the area and buy it when we go back and forth to the capital, but we can't carry much alcohol because it's too heavy...

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

　Oops, it's bad for Sara that I'm the only one talking. Gina and the others are probably bored too, so I guess we'd better end the conversation here.

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

"Mr. Victor. As we talked about, where should we send the souvenirs?　Are you still using your previous base?"

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

Yes, we are using the building that Yuta excavated for us as our base. We've done a lot of work on it, so it's a much more comfortable place to live.

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

　We found a lot of bones in that three-story building. Well, people in this world are tough.

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

　I'd be living in a land infested with the undead too.

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

I see. Then why don't we move there?

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

"Yes, I suppose so. Excuse me for not offering you a drink. Let's move."

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

　Mr. Viktor and Mr. Becker lead us to the building we had previously excavated.

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

　...... Well, it seems to be a comfortable place to live.

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

　Especially the log bridge between the ground and the three-story rooftop seems to be useful.

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

　Since most of the building was excavated from the ground, access from the first floor is inconvenient due to the difference in height, but it will be easier to live if the top floor is used as the entrance.

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

　There is a sturdy fence made of hewn logs around the hole, and the excavated space can serve as a moat, so it can be defended from a strong monster if we can manage to build a bridge.

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

　Perhaps because they understand that it is a dangerous place, their defenses are much stronger than the last time they were here. Considering the fact that they have called in personnel, they may be planning to dig up all the ruins in this area.

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

　We enter the building with admiration, and take out a number of souvenirs from the warehouse. Sake and foodstuffs such as grains, which are hard to find in this area, seem to get a good response.

"Yuta-dono, would you like some tea?"

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

　Tea. ...... Not that I'm not thirsty, but Mr. Viktor tries to entertain me when I'm around, so it's hard for Sara to talk.

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

　I don't have much to say to you, so I'll just pass.

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

"No, I'd like to take a look around, so please treat Sara to some tea.

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

"Thank you for your concern. Well, Sara, it's been a while since I've talked to my brother.

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

　I guess my concern was too obvious, and she read my mind perfectly. I want to be able to show my concern more subtly.

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

"Yes!"

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

　But Sara seems to be happy with her answer, so I'll just say OK.

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

　I leave Mr. Viktor and Sara, and go out of the building alone with my family, without Mr. Becker who offered to show me around.

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

　Well, let's have a look around and see where they are digging now. It would be interesting to witness the discovery of a treasure.

"Yuta. Inoshishi?"

　While I was thinking about how to look around the ruins, Belle asked me a question with an excited look on her face. Behind Belle, Rain and the others except Moon are looking at me with expectant eyes, so it looks like everyone wants to go hunting too.

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

（You want the whole roast?)

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

　I don't blame you. It's just the thought of roasting a whole fish that excites me. The taste of dragon meat is better, but the whole roasted wild boar is just as impressive in terms of appearance.

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

　That's why we hunt every time we come here, and Belle and the others have learned to hunt wild boars when they come to this country. Moon, who is not good at hunting, is always at home. .......

"TABERU-" "CUE" "natural flavor" "KUKU-" "JIKKU-NUKU-KYOKOKU-DAZE!"

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

　Well, it's not bad to have a lot of stock in the round roast, and I don't mind staying here because there's nothing for me to do.

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

　The good boys who have been patiently waiting while we talked with Mr. Viktor and the others need to be rewarded.

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

（I understand. And please collect mushrooms too. I'll pick them up when I have enough, so please call me.)

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

"Okay!" "Coo-coo!" "I love mushrooms, too!" "Coo-coo!" "Nigga-doo!"

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

　The belles fly away at maximum tension. Considering their enthusiasm, there must be a lot of wild boars and mushrooms.

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

　I wonder if the man at the grill will be wondering if they've come back again.

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

　By the way, they only roasted a whole wild boar, but I wonder if they can roast other whole boars. I wonder if they can roast any other kind of whole bird.

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

　They make roasted whole boars, but they are selective about the size of the boar. Before they can roast a whole bird, a rough bird that is taller than I am would be out of size.

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

　...... but isn't a whole roasted roughbird ...... delicious?

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

　I think it would be very tasty if we stuffed rice, mushrooms, herbs, etc. into its big belly and roasted it slowly.

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

　I think it would be difficult to cook it right because of its size, but I have the spirit of fire in me, so I think I can handle it.

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

　I wonder if it would be difficult for Tulu to make the tools?　No, we have the tools and materials to roast a whole fish, so Tulu can at least increase the size of the fish. If not, we can summon Nomos.

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

　Normally, I would pay someone to do something for me, but as part of my self-discovery, as a reminder of my rich life, I might as well give it a shot.

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

　I feel as if I have revived the feeling I had when I first came to the land of the dead, when I had tried to do everything by myself.

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

　Well, now that I've decided to do so, let's get ready to go. I'm sure Viktor and the others will be pleased if we treat them too.

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

　...... Oh, the Belles have gone hunting. It's a pity to call Tulu back after all the excitement of the trip.

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

　We could call Nomos, but we want Tulu to get some experience too. ...... Let's do it tomorrow. Let's just observe today for now.

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

"Master. I want to work with Uri too!"

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

　It was supposed to be an observation, but Marco's treasure-hunting spirit seems to have been ignited. Uri may be a floating spirit, but he's a spirit of the earth, so he could certainly help with the excavation.

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

　Well, I'm afraid I'll get in the way, but ...... I can't let this dazzling smile cloud my vision.

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

　I've brought you plenty of booze, so I think it's safe to ask for a little indulgence.

"I'll ask Mr. Becker if you can pretend to chant properly when you use the genjutsu.

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

"It's okay. I can do it!"

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

"Okay, Kikka. I'll help you with your brother.

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

"Then master. I'll take care of these children, while you take your time to look around.

　The teamwork of the apprentices is excellent. Gina must have heard our conversation earlier and made it easy for me to take a look around.　　　　

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

"......Yeah, thanks. Well, let's go see Mr. Becker."

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

　But it's a little sad to leave my disciples and go on patrol by myself.

　I'll have to talk to Sylphy and play with Moon, who's staying at home with me. .......
