Chapter 474 - Chapter 421 Fairy Paradise
"Whoops, are you okay?"
"Y-yes."
I caught Mion as she climbed down from the loft bed. To confirm her registration as an island resident, we decided to set up her My Home, and naturally, this was the only place. Mion successfully set up her My Home and was counted as an island resident, which was good, but logging in at the same time… was a little embarrassing.
"Alright, let's make a guild right away."
"Yes."
I took out the [Magic Certificate Management Device] (guild management magic tool) from my inventory, which Bell-buchou had taught me about. By the way, according to Bell-buchou, 'backing' was merely a custom or habit on the mainland, and it wasn't registered in the magic tool. It was an unspoken agreement that in exchange for lending their name as backing, a portion of the guild's profits would flow to them, and in return, they would be responsible for punishing any misconduct.
"I'm okay with being the Guild Master, right?"
"Of course."
Mion and I sat across from each other at the table with the magic tool, and Lupi sat on the designated cushion. "Alright, first here, right?"
"Yes."
I inserted a blank guild card into the narrow slot and placed my index finger on the round mark next to it. A tiny bit of MP was siphoned away. Then,
[Initial setup. Please enter the guild name.]
"Tir na nOg."
[Guild name set to 'Tir na nOg'. The setter will be registered as Guild Master.]
This guild name was, of course, Mion's idea. It was from the name of the fairy paradise in Celtic mythology or something. The magic tool glowed faintly, and when it subsided,
[Guild Master registration complete.]
[Guild established: Acquired 5 SP.]
"Oh, I got reward SP."
"Congratulations!"
"Now that I know you get reward SP, I kind of wish Mion had established it…"
"I have plenty left, and anyway, the operations team said they wouldn't reclaim the SP."
Apparently, the response to our inquiry about the 'Uninhabited Island Start and immediate pickup' scenario was: "We will consider it as a future correction item, but we will not reclaim any SP that has already been distributed."
"Well, there's nothing that can be done about it now."
"Yes." Mion smiled. The guild card spit out by the magic tool had the guild name and my name properly written on it, but I used [Appraisal] just in case.
[Guild Card: Shou]
*Name: Shou
Affiliation: Tir na nOg
Position: Guild Master*
It was the same as the one I found before, I think. Oh, the name being visible was different, wasn't it? Also, the one I picked up in the data room said 'Director' or something in the 'Position' field, but I heard that title could be changed later.
"Alright, Mion, you're next."
She nodded and, likewise, inserted a blank card and placed her finger on it. Mion's registration finished without any specific inquiries, and a guild card was spit out after glowing faintly.
"Can I see it?"
"Yes. Please do."
I used [Appraisal] on the card Mion handed me.
[Guild Card: Mion]
*Name: Mion
Affiliation: Tir na nOg
Position: Sub-Master*
This was also as expected. The second person registered automatically becomes a Sub-Master. So, for the rest of the day, we should head to the port…
"Woof!"
"It's Lupi-chan's turn next, isn't it?"
"Eh? Can we make one for Lupi?"
Well, let's try it. I set a new blank guild card, and smart Lupi gently placed her paw on it. The magic tool then glowed faintly, just like before.
"Oh, it worked!"
The card itself was one-quarter the size of a normal card. The remaining three-quarters were separated and spit out. Can the remaining pieces be used for Leda and Roy? I'll ask Bell-buchou later.
"That's great."
"Woof~"
Lupi looked happy as Mion stroked her. Maybe I should make a holder and attach it to her bandana?
"Well, that can wait. Lupi, can you call Sweee and Raz for me?"
"Woof!"
I watched Lupi dash off, with Leda and Roy chasing after her. I wanted to start moving towards the port soon, but Sweee would probably want a guild card too…
………
……
…
"It's really amazing in person!"
Mion's spirits were high at the Observation Deck. And is it really okay to call it 'in person'? Well, I guess it's not wrong? "There are no railings or anything, so be careful," I said to Mion, who was gazing at the area where the mountain cabin was, from the western edge. Shal watching over her worriedly was heartwarming, in a way.
"Alright, I'll have Lupi call them."
"Ah, yes."
We planned for Mion to meet the Drab Wolf family. Lupi stepped forward. "Whooooaaaaa-n…" Her clear howl echoed, and soon after, two Drab Wolf families arrived. As usual, they lay down in front of Lupi, but they seemed curious about Mion.
"Woof."
"This is Mion, who will be living on the island with us."
"It's a pleasure to meet you."
Mion knelt and stroked each of their heads, and they all looked happy. Now, I guess all that's left is to introduce her to True and the others? Oh, and I need to meet the Ghillie Dhu too.
"""~~~♪"""
"Whoops, thanks as always."
The Fairies, as usual, picked flowers and offered them at Lupi's mother's grave. As for Sweee,
"~~~♪"
"Thank you, Sweee-chan."
She seemed to have picked flowers for us too. We accepted them and the three of us offered the flowers. After pressing our hands together firmly, "~~~?" "Yes. Just the two of us today."
"Yes."
As I took out and held the [Magic Kagurabue Flute], [Ancient Children's Song
"Kuru?"
"Of course, okay."
Raz, for today, kept a slightly calmer rhythm. After the gentle prelude finished, Mion, Sweee, and the Fairies' harmony echoed. And then, for the chorus, the part that was Sweee's solo last time, Mion and she sang it as a duo. Mion is alto, and Sweee is soprano, I guess? I wondered if their upcoming album would include Mion and the fairies' chorus as well.
