Living in Another World by Commissioning 〜Healing Mage’s Relaxing and Fluffy Manpower Agency〜 - CH 48.2

「Excuse me! Your lunch has arrived!」

「Bring it in!」

I’m glad for the food but, can’t you do something about this ostentatiousness….

Is it personality? Or education?

I feel like it’s laxer when the former regular soldier, the fishkin Mince was in charge.

From a distance, I can see a dogkin with a bamboo basket walking slowly toward us.

I’ve seen her before. I think she was from the band and she retired from service after my marriage.

「Sorry to keep you waiting〜, here are meat buns and roasted sorghum desu.」

「Thank you. You were in the band, right?」

「Ah, yes! Sheena desu. I’m in charge of a stall now.」

「She recently got married and is now pregnant!」

Rubica sniffs and says so. Does the blessing of the wolf god make you able to detect pregnancy?

「Heh〜, congratulations.」

「Thank you very much.」

Sheena smiles as her ears move.

I’m kind of an employer myself so I guess I should give her some money.

I took out a gold coin from my pocket and put it in front of Sheena.

「You’ll be needing more from now on, right? Take this as my congratulatory gift.」

Seeing the sparkle of the gold coin, the chatter around stopped.

The place became so quiet that I could clearly hear the sound of sand flowing in the wind. When I look around, only Laura-san was smiling.

Sheena wobbled and shook. After that, she knelt with her hand crossed in front of her chest.

「Please forgive me but this child is the future inheritor of my husband’s family. I will return after I give birth to this child so please, forgive me….」

「Eh? What are you talking about?」

Seeing me puzzled, Laura-san told me what was happening.

「She thinks you are buying the baby in her womb.」

「Eh!? No no! That’s not what I mean!!」

I hurriedly made Sheena, the pregnant woman, stand up, and told her that that was not my intention.

Everyone around me was obviously relieved.

I managed to coax Sheena to leave but I felt exhausted.

「By the way, is that how the children of the slaves are normally treated?」

「To answer master, it depends on the master’s policy!」

「Then, I will publicize that the children of my slaves are not slaves. I guess I’ll have to speak with Chicken about this.」

「I’ll take care of it! I’ll inform her will everything I got!」

「Maa, that’s it….I’m tired so I’m going home.」

「Understood!」

We were sent off by the vigorous voice of Rubika, the wolfkin who’s the leader of the security force. We went straight home.

By the way, I didn’t give the congratulatory gift.

I don’t want the husband to get the wrong idea…..

Right, I need to go to the clothing store and have them make something like a swimsuit out of a fabric that won’t get transparent when wet.

I have a lot to do but I have to do them.

Even though it’s only to satisfy me, if I’m going to build a swimming pool, I’d like to make it part of the benefits package.

I don’t want the slaves to swim naked.

I don’t care what the design is for the slaves but I have to make sure to ask for a sexy one for Laura-san.

I’ll be in trouble.

Next week after, I was so busy that I completely forgot about the pool.

No wonder.

Even though I was excused from school, I was tired from studying from morning till evening….

When I return home, I have a lot to do: acting, reading, flirting, and occasionally working.

Recently, I’ve even taken up the hobby of growing shiitake mushrooms.

I even remembered the day before my holiday when the dressmaker I had ordered a swimsuit from brought me the finished products.

In the end, a swimming pool is something I’m happy to have but I’m perfectly fine without it.

It’s just a thing to satisfy my status.

I don’t regret making it but I would have been happy if I had it.

Well, I can’t help but tell them to make it for me.

On the morning of a rest day, Laura and I went to the planned theater site again.

「Aren’t you pretty quick? Excellent.」

「Yes! Thank you very much!」

Laura-san seemed pleased with the pool, which is in the shape of a mortar. It is around 25 meters in diameter.

It’s not about the pool itself but how it was made.

The entire pool and the ground around it are also covered with white stones so it looks quite refreshing.

「I’m going to reinforce it now so workers, hit it from the top.」

「Understood.」

I cast reinforcement spells on the pool and its surroundings and the workers pounded the areas I wanted to harden with big wooden mallets.

This is a kind of bug technique.

I strengthened the power of attraction of different particles and mixed them up and by physically hitting the area, I will force it to solidify it.

This has already been proven and tested in the basement.

The ceilings and walls of the basement have not collapsed even when a super giant beast rampaged 20 meters above them.

Incidentally, we also tested the shields of the adventurers and some of them are still using the shields that we provided to them a year or two ago. It’s definitely good reinforcement.

In the experiment, the sword that the adventurers used broke against it but it’s not clear how well it would work against giant beasts and super giant beasts.

Should we try it with Laura-san’s magic?

Let’s leave that for some other time.

We have pool building to do today.

Time flew by as I was checking to make sure I hadn’t forgotten to reinforce a part and that the drainage mechanism was functioning properly. After lunch, we fill it with water.
