　When I went to scout for the Great Spirit of Snow, I found that he was supposed to be the Great Spirit of Snow Leopard, but he was a cat-like home guard ...... plus an eccentric Great Spirit with a tremendous attachment to bedclothes. I felt uneasy about scouting him, but it would be enough to make it snow and have him stay indoors, so I'll give it a try.

"Hmmm, that's impossible.

"What?　Even Nomos can't do it?"

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

　To be honest, I thought I could get by with nomos if I asked. That's why I did my best to smile even though I didn't understand the story about the bedding of the Great Spirit of Snow. .......

　I managed to get the word that <> and returned to paradise in high spirits, but this is the result. Is there anything Nomos can't do?

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

　Find other bedding?　But the Great Spirit of Snow will not be satisfied with half-baked bedding. The various furs that were touched during the boasting were a touch of something to be proud of.

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

　Moreover, each fur has its own characteristics, and they are so particular about their bedding that they change it according to their moods on any given day. Half-heartedly trying to do anything will only put him in a bad mood.

　Another scouting failure?

"Well, I misspoke. I can do it, but it's not very efficient. Glass can be reinforced, but it breaks when it rubs against each other. Metal is too heavy. It is possible if you select the right materials and mix them, but there is no need to go that far.

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

"Well, what do you mean by ......?"

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

　The word "not impossible" gives me hope, but it's a gigolo's trick to drop the ball and then raise it.

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

　Are you trying to make me fall in love with you?

"What Yuta wants to do, even a plant can do. Ask Dory."

"Dolly?"

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

"Mm. It would be better to use trees and sap, which are better suited for this than metal."

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

　...... I guess I'm still bound by earthly norms. Since magic exists in this world, it's not surprising that there are trees and sap that can be substituted for plastic.

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

"Well, thank you Nomos. I'll ask Dolly about it."

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

"Mm."

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

　Whew. I'm a little nervous, but I think we're on the verge of something, so let's check on Mel and the others and then go see Dory.

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

"Mel, how are you doing?"

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

　I talked to Mel, who was watching us and not participating in the conversation while Nomos and I were talking.

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

"Yes, well, it's very difficult, but it's very rewarding. I have been taught ancient knowledge that I ...... don't even know ......, no, not only me, but that is lost in today's world. ...... Is everything okay?"

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

"...... Nomos, I thought you were teaching about Damascus steel?　Isn't ancient knowledge dangerous for some things?"

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

　Without replying to Mel, he turned around and spoke to Nomos. This is a very unfashionable matter.

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

"Damascus steel is also ancient knowledge, isn't it?"

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

　I can't even hear a sound when you say that.

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

"...... Mel. If they reproduced Damascus steel, albeit in a degraded form, it would attract a lot of attention. I don't need any more attention than that, so don't publish what you've learned."

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

　With my backing, you're probably safer than the average person, but there's no need to add more danger for no good reason.

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

Yes, sir. Then it is better not to learn any more.

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

　Mel looks a little, maybe a lot disappointed. He is a craftsman and has a thirst for knowledge.

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

"You can learn as much as you want, since it's all hidden. But be very careful with your knowledge. Okay?"

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

"Yes!　I understand!"

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

　You look so happy. I knew he wanted to learn.

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

　I'm a little worried about the leakage of information, but Mel is a small man and will be very careful.

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

"Mel, Meral, Meryl Serio, I'm sorry for interrupting your training. Nomos, take care of them."

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

　Feeling that any further discussion would lead to more stomach-churning stories, he quickly leaves the workshop, leaving Mel and the others in Nomos' hands.

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

　Now, let's forget about the things that might make us anxious and go see Dolly.

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

　I'm going to go see Dolly.

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

"Then let's ask Sakura-chan to help us."

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

"Sakura?　Why?"

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

　I explained to Dolly what had happened so far, and somehow Sakura's name came up.

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

　Nomos, Dolly, and now Sakura. I feel like I'm being passed around.

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

Yuta-san seems to have forgotten that Sakura is a thought body of a spirit tree. It is Sakura who has the right materials for what you want.

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

　Come to think of it, the cherry tree is based on the spirit tree.

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

　I knew that, but seeing her smiling and waving her arms and legs around as she ate delicious meals and snacks, I had disconnected the sakura from the spirit tree in my perception.

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

"Dolly, what do you need the genie tree for?　I mean, I thought all the materials for spirit trees were precious.　Can we make bedding out of such things?"

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

　The fruit of the spirit tree had the effect of curing anything that was not dead. I remember hearing that the leaves, branches, and sap also have some value.

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

"It is true that the material of the spirit tree is very valuable. But that is because they grow in places where people cannot set foot, and the will of the spirit tree, which hates greed and roughness, refuses to provide materials to the unruly.

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

　What?　No rowdy people?　The only people who can reach places where people can't set foot are usually people who are used to roughing it.

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

　And those who come to such unexplored places are usually looking for treasures.

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

　I see...that's why the materials of the spirit tree are so precious.

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

　It's a shitty or impossible game if only a strong, kind and selfless person can get it.

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

"Huh?　I don't mean to sound self righteous, but I'm not Abnegation, okay?　I don't like to do rough ...... work, but I can be rough in the right mood. Why do you miss the cherry?"

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

　I am aware that I am the type of person who is rather disliked.

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

"Yuta-san is like a parent to Sakura, so unless you do something really bad, she won't hate you.

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

　Family privilege. That makes sense.

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

"So, if a cherry blossom girl offers it to me, I can use it without any problem, right?"

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

　It's a bit of a waste, like blowing your nose on a bill, but I guess it balances out when you think of an extra snow island in paradise.

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

"Yes. He is still too young to be reckless, but the amount Yuta-san would like to eat is no problem at all.

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

　With Dolly's endorsement, we can rest easy.

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

"Then let's go to Sakura's. Sylphy, do you know where she is?

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

"You're playing with Belle and the others at the spirit tree."

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

"Oh, they're with us. Oh, the Bells are with us. Do you think they like the slide?"

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

　If so, I'm very happy that I made it.

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

"The slides are fun, but the spirits are also comfortable around the spirit trees.　　

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

"Oh, I didn't know that. Well, I hope they are enjoying the slide.

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

"......Yuta. Try to think a little deeper. You know that it has something to do with spirits, since its name is the Spirit Tree, right?"

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

　I never thought about the origin of the name!

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

　...... no good, I thought about sulking like a cute little girl, but just imagining it makes me sick.

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

　It's best to be honest.

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

"Okay. I'll try to pay more attention to things. By the way, how did you come up with the name 'spirit tree'?"

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

"In the old days, there were more spirit trees than there are now. There were so many that a person could reach them with a little effort. Then, a person with a talent for spiritism felt that spirits were gathering there and named the tree the Spirit Tree.

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

"I see. Why do spirits gather in the first place?"

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

"Because it is comfortable, but most of all because of the scent.　I told you that the spirit tree enriches the land, didn't I?　The fragrance emitted during that cycle is a wonderful healing for the spirits."

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

　Does it have outstanding aromatherapy effects?

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

"...... Does the sap of the spirit tree also have a smell that spirits like?"

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

　I think I've heard that the sap is somehow made into incense.

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

"Well, I don't know.　Dolly, do you know?"

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

"Yes, ...... the sap smells good before it solidifies. Even after it solidifies, I think it still has a faint scent.

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

　......, which means you can make bedding that smells faintly good and feels wonderful.

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

"There is no possibility that the Great Spirit of Snow doesn't like the scent of the spirit tree, is there?"

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

"I doubt it.　But I've never heard of any spirit not liking the scent of a genie tree. How about Dolly?"

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

"I don't think there is any spirit that doesn't like the scent of the genie tree, unless it is a very unusual spirit."

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

　Except for the most unusual spirits. .......

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

"Is a spirit that loves to sleep in furs, using its magical powers, and the bedding to make that sleep comfortable, a very strange spirit?"

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

　I think that's the big point.

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

"...... can't deny that. But since the Great Spirit of Snow's hobby is to sleep, isn't the fragrance the same as the general genie's tastes?"　　　

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

"Yes, that's right. If you are concerned, there are saps that have little or no sap fragrance, so you might want to make some as a backup.

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

　Well, there is a good chance that you like the scent of the spirit tree, but if you have some left over, you can use it yourself, and making non-scented bedding as a spare is not a bad choice.

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

　While I was on my way to the tree to meet Sakura, I came up with a pretty good idea. Thanks to Shilfi's in-depth explanation of the tree of spirits.

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

　It's a bit of a pattern, but I'll offer you some sake as a thank-you later. And of course, to Dolly for her help in making the bedding.

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

　......I feel like I'm always giving out drinks to the Great Spirits. Well, I guess that's how much they've helped us.

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

"Ah!"

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

"Yuta...... what did you miss?"

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

　I love you, Mr. Sylphy, who can tell just by the sound of my voice that I've made a mistake. Yes, I failed.

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

"...... I was thinking only about what's inside the bedding and not about what's outside to put it in. I have some fabrics from the labyrinth treasures that have a good texture. ...... Sylphy, can you sew?"

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

　Sylphy looks away quickly.

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

"Well, what about Dolly?"

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

"I've never sewn before either. I mean, I don't know any spirits who have sewed before.

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

　That's right. Genies don't have to sew.

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

I wonder if Gina or Mel could do it."

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

""......""

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

　Mute.

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

　If Gina and Mel can't sew, they'll have to travel to ...... Labyrinth City.

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

　What started out as a simple idea has turned out to be quite a challenge.
