Chapter 112
Chapter 112 – It’s WinterWinter has come .
Snow has suddenly piled up .
It was dangerous .
If the construction work was delayed for even a few days, the centaurs would have had to spend their winter at the northern dungeon .
「Food has been delivered . Each village has no problem . 」
One of the centaurs who checked the status of each village reported that to me .
The nyunyu-daphnes are on Village One .
The minotaurs are on Village Two .
The centaurs are on Village Three .
Everyone, except a few, started their new lives in their new villages .
The exceptions were those who were sent to Big Tree Village .
「What about the countermeasures against cold?」
「There is no problem . They have sufficient firewoods . However, Gordon-san and Glueworld-san want to consult you about the snow on the roof . 」
「Hnnn? Snow on the roof?」
「If they climb on the roof, there is a possibility of breaking the roof . 」
「Ah, right . I see . Take some snow removing personnel with you when the weather is good . 」
「I understand . 」
「Have you encounter any problem on your way?」
「Nothing in particular . 」
「How was the river?」
「I feel like the amount of water was higher than usual . The waterwheel seems to be not that operational . 」
「I see . How about the waterway building?」
「Both Village Two and Village Three are still on the planning stage . I told them to not do something reckless and only do something when the weather is fine . 」
「Good . They shouldn’t overdo it . 」
We transferred some jobs to the villagers of Village Two and Village Three this winter .
However, since this is their first winter in this unfamiliar place, I asked them to put serious consideration on safety .
「What is the status of Village One?」
「No change . 」
「Really? Is there anything else?」
「Just one thing . Igu-san of Village One, Gordon-san of Village Two, and Glueworld-san of Village Three want to convey something to the village chief . 」
「Hnn? What is it?」
「Since the three of them will also be ent.i.tled as village chief, they said that the village chief should have a new t.i.tle . 」
「Ah, right . 」
Since the number of villages increases, the number of village chief will increase too .
I see .
I haven’t thought about it .
……
I only thought of making and naming new villages .
However, a new t.i.tle… . what do you call someone above the village chief?
I wonder .
「The three of them have thought about it, they suggested that the village chief of Big Tree Village will be called Great Village Chief . What do you think?」
「…… . . I, I’ll consider it . However, don’t expect too much . 」
「Yes . Then I’ll wait for two hours then report to each village until I arrive at Village Three . 」
「Alright . 」
As expected, I don’t like to be called great village chief .

The kuros call out outside so I open the door .
There are 20 of them lined up there .
The one on the front is Kurogo, one of Kuro’s pups .
After barking once, they all ran to the west .
Today, the twenty of them will be guarding Village One, Village Two, and Village Three .
Even if I say guarding them, they’ll only live there .
By the way, Kuroroku, Kuronana, and Kurohachi are the leaders in each village .
Kurogo’s group is a mobile unit .
The mobile unit is basically protection for the centaur messenger in addition to Kuroroku, Kuronana, and Kurohachi’s protection .
Though the three groups guarding each village can take care of most monsters and demon beasts, there is a possibility of them escaping their network so we can never be too sure about safety .
Though this is hard for the kuros, please persevere .
I waved my hands while looking at Kurogo’s group .
…… . ah, yeah, I know .
It seems like they’re telling me to close the door since it’s cold .
I closed the door, and apologize to Kuro and Yuki who are lying down on my house .
…… .
Where have your wildness from the first time we met gone to?

Winter .
It’s cold .
I didn’t dare to go outside .
Days like that continues .
There’s also no problem in eating three meals per day though it is not that good, they are edible .
There are also kuro pups that are born this year .
Hakuren and Rasuti went south because they thought that the food was bad . They solve the food problem by catching a big fish .
Thank you .
The food problem, why didn’t you solve it immediately?
No, we shouldn’t rely on them and must do what we can with our own hand .
No, we shouldn’t rely on them and must do what we can with our own hand .
「I want deep-fried food . 」
「Me too」
In any case, I cooked fish for Hakuren and Rasuti .

Gran Maria came to me for consultation .
「Village chief, the range of our patrol will be considerably wide if you include the new villages . 」
「It’s that bad? 」
「Though there is no problem when we are flying but we won’t be able to patrol the ground that much . We’ll definitely miss something . 」
「Un, it can’t be helped . Just don’t miss big things, I don’t think the small ones will move that much this winter . 」
In addition, the one I’m most cautious about is wyverns .
「I understand . We’ll do just that . Also, when the spring comes, I want to bring my friend here, is it alright?」
「Is your friend an angel?」
「Yes . She’s not that strong but she can fly . 」
***TN: Not sure of the gender yet . There’s no indication of angel’s being a female only race yet but we’re going there . ***
「I don’t mind another one living here if she wants to but don’t force her to . 」
「I understand . I’ll contact her this spring . 」
Gran Maria’s friend .
What kind of person is she?

I went to the ranch area and checked the horse who seems to have a change of heart .
And it is listening to my command .
I’m riding a horse .
When it saw me ride Glueworld, it’s reluctance is now gone and it began to act strangely familiar with me .
I guess even it can feel jealousy .
And it now took this opportunity to change .
Good good .
Okay, here we go .
Though it is only walking fast, I enjoy horseback riding .
Then, I found Glueworld who’s watching us with intense eyes in a place a little far away .
I felt chill on my back .
What’s wrong with Glueworld?
Oh, she came here for the periodic report .
Ah, I haven’t done anything wrong, why are you looking at me like that?
The horse laughs bluntly when it saw Glueworld . It’s probably telling me something .
Un, Glueworld is really scary .

During winter, the spiders won’t show up .
I guess they are hibernating .
Time like this is a little lonely .
But there are still some of them who are moving energetically at the ceiling of my house .
They don’t go to absolute cold places but…
Please be careful when getting close to fire sources, you might get burn .

Now, what will I do this winter?
I decided what to do .
First, increase the number of reward medal .
I’m still consulting the nyunyu-daphnes, the minotaurs, and centaurs if I can introduce this to them .
If I’ll give them some, how much should it be?
I did my best in order to increase the number of reward medal .
Am I familiar to it now?
My production rate is much faster than last year .

Next, making miscellaneous items .
The new villages have too little housewares .
They only have the bare minimum so we need to increase them this winter .
I had the centaur messenger to pa.s.s it to them as she pa.s.ses news .
It is said that my handmade goods have a good reputation .
…… .
「Ano, village chief?」
「What is it?」
An oni maid who I gave my handmade cup for house use spoke to me .
「The carving in this cup is so amazing that it is hard to use… . . I also need to be careful when washing it . 」
「Kuh, I overdid it . 」
「Looking at the density of the carving in this wooden cup, this can already be considered as a work of art and not something for daily use . Isn’t this similar to the level of the shrine of G.o.d that village chief cherish?」
「Ah」
「I recommend you to use this as a gift instead . 」
「Eh… . isn’t it embarra.s.sing to gift others handmade items?」
「Not at all . By the way, I was informed that the tablewares you sent to the other villages are used as decorations . 」
「… . what!」
「The tablewares aside, even the lip of the cup has carving . You should have made one side of it normally so it can be used . 」
「Like this?」
「… . This, is this for me?」
「yeah」
「… . This, is this for me?」
「yeah」
「Thank you very much . I’ll make it my family’s heirloom . 」
「No, it’s just a rush work . I want it to be utilized in everyday life… . 」
The oni maid did not listen to any of my words and went out of the room skipping while holding the cup with both of her hands .

Village Two and Village Three already has a shrine with G.o.d’s statue so I’ll make a statue of Kuro, Yuki, and Zabuton that I haven’t carved yet .
I’m carving slowly and carefully in a room .
I won’t be satisfied with mild result .
Should I change their pose? I challenge carving again with the theme “stirring heart” in mind .
I gained some impression from the oni maids who came into this room and were on attack mode .
「… . an charm against evil?」
「This is not one but it gives off that feeling . 」
The statue of Zabuton that I carved with the theme “stirring heart” is extremely popular with the spiderlings who are active during winter .
I can see them moving around the statue .
