Spirit's Paradise And The Idle Another World Life Chapter 20

“what with that, getting disappointed when seeing my face, I came here because I was asked to, but I’m leaving”

“Ah, please wait, it was all my fault, expecting a beautiful spirit to come and I got disappointed on my own, I didn’t intend to make you feel uncomfortable, I’m sorry”

I bowed my head 90°, this is not good, even though there was a dolphin spirit but I thought that all spirits will be beauties, it’s natural that he gets mad.

“you, your name was Yuuta?, You was expecting Beautiful spirit? they are spirits that we talk about”
(TL: he said “Onushi” which also mean “you, but in more old-style way, and he talk in that way too)

the dwarf asked me with a really surprised look on his face.

“well, spirits you say, but for me, the only ones I met in this world are the spirits, and I can see them and touch them normally, so for me, they are like beauties from different race”

“buhahaha, beauties, beauties you say, isn’t that good, Sylphy, Dine, finally spring might come to you, Buhahahha”

it’s bad, I said embarra.s.sing things like beauty in front of them, Sylphy look little embarra.s.sed while being slightly angry, Dine is fidgeting while saying “one-chan is little troubled”, I want to say that Dine is little different, but I have the feeling that it will be dangerous if I said that.

“n, no, I didn’t mean to say it that in meaning,….anyway, I’m sorry”

“hmu, if you were expecting a beauty then it can’t be helped, instead, a bearded old man came, Buhah, well since you really had me laughing there so I will forgive you this time, my name is Nomos, I’m great spirit of the earth, this one is a lower spirit, he still doesn’t have a name”

I don’t know what made him laugh but it seems he forgive me, and they weren’t father child, they are different in size but both of them have short and squab figure, and their faces look similar.

Nomos is about 1 meter and 20-centimetre hight maybe, he is short and squab, and have a bushy beard, the lower spirit is about 80 centimetres hight, he also looks short and squab, but have younger looks.

“My name is Yuuta Morizono, Nomos-san, lower spirit of the earth, please treat me well”

“you don’t to speak formally or add san when you speak with me, it’s troublesome, anyway, I heard the story, first show me the field that you improved its soil”

I’m also saved if I can speak normally, but it seems that spirits really hate formalities

“I understand, you can call me Yuuta, the field is this way”

I took them to the field that we made yesterday, when we arrived, Nomos and the lower spirit of earth entered into the field and started to check something, Bell and Rain look interested in the new lower spirit that came, they seem so eager to talk with him, I called both of them near me, please be quiet.

“Yuuta, you did something interesting here, but I’m afraid that we can’t live here with just this”

so it’s not good, I was anxious about it, but still hoped that it works out somehow, it seems that I got a red mark.

“I see, that is unfortunate, can you please tell me what was bad?”

“hmu, I don’t mind that much, it’s true that there are many things mixed in it that help to make the soil richer, but not just Beneficial insects but also there are no microorganisms in this soil, a soil without microorganisms is a bad one, if we stayed here, we will only lose our powers”

…..the land of death, it’s a horrible place, even microorganisms are dead, there is nothing I can do about that.

“is there nothing that I can do”

“you can mix a living soil with it, though the nutritions balance was bad, but it still in the limits where microorganisms can deal with”

so even the balance was bad, living soil? if I can get living soil then I would have brought food instead, it seems that is it, I have no choice but to continue to level up

“so it would have worked if there was a living soil, but there is no way for me to get a living soil”

“Yuuta, I just remembered something, the soil that you found at the bottom of the well wasn’t it a living soil? didn’t you store it?”

I got unexpected advice from sylphy……I remember that I stored it, that soil did look like a living soil

“Nomos, please look at this”

I showed him the soil that I got from the bottom of the well, if this soil is enough then that would mean I didn’t have to make fertilizer, it would be quite waste.

“true even though a little but there are microorganisms in it, if you mix this soil with it, then it might work out somehow”

Are?, I thought that it was no good, there is still hope? and microorganisms were inside the bag, even though living things can’t be stored, maybe microorganisms and extremely small creatures are not included in the restriction of the magical bag.

“is this much enough”

I took all the soil that I got from the bottom of the well, but because I only digged a little and the water came out so there isn’t so much.

“fumu, well it might work out somehow, now you should mix this soil with the one you made, and give it water every day, make sure it doesn’t get dry, now I will come back again in ten days”

he just said what he wanted to say and now both Nomos and the lower spirit are trying to leave.

“ah, that is right, if you want to expand the field then, make a hole and put rocks at the bottom, you don’t need to put soil in it, and s.p.a.ce should be four-time bigger than this one.

…….after he said that, they just flew away, what did that mean?

“ah, is it okay to think that he will be back in ten days”

“that is right, he might come back, so you should do what he told you”

sylphy is not sure about this also, will it be okay?

“so I need to mix the living soil with the soil of the field and make sure to water it, Rain can I ask you to water it every day?”

“Que”

Rain raised her Fin high and cried, I think it means leave it to me

“good luck, but still that lower spirit didn’t say a word, I wonder if he hates this place?”

“one-chan think that kid is just a quite one, he was watching the surrounding interestingly so I don’t think he hates this place”

“it’s good if it’s like that, then now I should mix the soil”

first I took the soil from the field and stored it, then I put it with the living soil in the grinding-bowl and started to mix it gently with the shovel.

I thought about using the hammer but changed my mind, since I was afraid that I might kill the micrograms, I don’t know how strong are the micrograms, and what is dangerous for them, so I just kept on mixing the soil and storing it.

“finally it all mixed, I should return the soil to the filed now”

it’s all uniformly mixed now, even though yesterday I worked hard and make little fertilizer at the bottom,…..I feel like crying

when I approached the filed to put back the soil, I found Bell and Rain playing inside, they seem to enjoy the narrow s.p.a.ce.

“Bell, Rain, I will return the soil now, come out”

“okay”

“Que”

since both of them never do selfish things so it’s really helpful, they are good kids, after they came out, I poured the soil that I mixed directly from the bag.

after taking all out, it became like a small mountain, now I need to spread it, Rain already started to water it, since the sun is very strong here so it needed to be watered thoroughly, so she is really helpful.

ah, I have to take out the dried fishes, I arranged them according to their time and put them on the drying table that I made yesterday.

“dry them~~”

Bell asked as if saying “a work came”, her eyes are twinkling

“Bell, you don’t need to dry those, I’m planning on leaving them in sun to slowly…,ah”

she looks really disappointed, my heat is hurt, is there nothing that I can make her do to help me with.

“ah, it’s hot, it’s very hot, I wonder if someone can blow some wind on me”

I took a glance at Bell

“Bell can do it”

“Oh, that is right, Bell is the spirit of wind, can you do that?”

“yea”

she is showing a big smile while blowing a gentle wind on me, Cute, I’m little concerned about Sylphy and Dine who are looking at me with some gentle eyes, I want to say something back to them but that will ruin everything so I will just endure it.

still, it good wind, if I mix Rain’s fog with this I’m sure it will feel good, the problem is can my conscience withstand the fact that I’m using Bell and Rain to get relaxed……..let’s endure it as much as I can.

“fuu, it became very cool, I will ask for your help if I feel hot again”

“leave it to me”

she seems satisfied, after saying that, she went flying to Rain’s place.

“Yuuta-chan, you are good kid, one-chan is very touched”

“I think that you will be good father”

I somehow really embarra.s.sed, but neither Sylphy and Dine mean any ill will, they are praising me with good intentions so I can’t complain, it’s my stained heart that can’t accept this obediently.

“haha,….thank you, well next I need to expand the field so I will go”

eh, if I recall correctly he said to make it four times bigger, 15-meter vertically, 10-meter horizontally and 5-meter depth should be enough, and since I’m going to use rocks to surround it so I need to dig 50 centimetres more.

after deciding the points for digging, I took out the shovel and started work, I completely got used to this, I can already see the finished state of it, I might have awakened for something.

I thought that maybe I got a new skill so I checked the status but there wasn’t anything, so just digging holes and arranging rocks is not enough, I wonder if there is construction or engineering skills?

I continued digging and arranging the rocks while thinking about useless things, I also used the hand auger to open holes for water, it looks like the work of craftmanship by now, with this I have done everything that Nomos said, for now, I have to make sure it don’t get dry
