Chapter 607 - Colorful Combinations
The vases and flowerpots were carried by hand, while the boxes filled with gold coins and glass were sent to the mansion's backyard using [Transfer] magic.
This much is perfectly fine. The cooldown is long, though…
"Are you going to use the vases and flowerpots as they are?"
"Yes. I'll call Sweee-chan."
Back at the mansion, I confirmed the items had been successfully transferred.
Since we had time, Mion said she'd go tend the backyard as is.
For my part, I wanted to try glass recycling.
"Could you please take this box of money to the storehouse?"
"Ah, leave it to me."
Hmm, reliable. More importantly, being able to leave so many things to others is truly helpful.
I carried the box full of broken glass products to my bedroom workshop and immediately decided to try recycling.
"Woof?"
"It's dangerous, don't touch it."
"Woof-woof"
I warned Lupi, who was peeking in, wondering what it was.
El-san, after carrying the gold coin box, seemed to be reading as usual.
When the White Dragon Princess wakes up, I'll make snacks.
"Alright, I need to be careful too."
I put on gloves securely, then picked up one broken glass bottle.
I placed the slightly light-green glass in my palms and chanted [Granulation] magic.
"Whoa there."
The glass, now returned to sand, was poured into a wooden dish.
I planned to repeat this and collect it, but should I separate the different colors?
As I silently continued making glass grains of different colors, I felt like I could make that…
………
……
…
"Shou-kun. Shall we take a break? Althena-chan is awake too."
"Oh, right, okay. Then, shall I make some Milk Mochi?"
"Ah! Is it the milk version of the mochi we made with soy milk before?"
"That's right."
Now that we could get Ambernault Milk, I wanted to make snacks using it.
Just mix milk, potato starch, and sugar, simmer on low heat, and once it starts to thicken slightly, cut it into bite-sized pieces and cool it in cold water.
Drain the water, dust with kinako, and drizzle with Fairy Flower Honey, and you get sweet, chewy, bouncy Milk Mochi.
"Shall we make some with finely crushed Ocher Nuts too?"
"Yes. Oh, what about raisins?"
"Oh, good idea."
So, I made plain, nut, and raisin Milk Mochi, which should be enough.
I had Mion call the White Dragon Princess and El-san, and Sweee and the others… seemed completely ready already.
"Snacks~" "~♪" """~♪""
"Let's wipe our hands first."
"Okaay~"
El-san prepared tea, and once everyone was seated,
"Alright, itadakimasu."
"""Itadakimasu~""
………
……
…
Snack time was over, it was past 3 PM.
I planned to log out by 4 PM today, so the remaining time would be for that idea I just had. Oh, no, before that,
"How are the vases and flowerpots?"
"Yes. I've placed them in various spots, would you like to see?"
"Okay. Then, please show me around."
I thought it would just be Mion and me, but Lupi, Sweee and the others, the White Dragon Princess, and El-san also came along, trooping after us.
First, the adjacent study. Here, where Sweee and the others' bamboo basket beds were, stood a sturdy, stable vase. The small yellow flowers must be Coputi.
Next was the White Dragon Princess's bedroom. On the large table sat a white ceramic single-flower vase. It held white, lily-like flowers.
By the way, I wondered how Jinbee-shishou made this white ceramic; I wanted to ask him…
"Next is El-san's room."
"Ah, I don't think flowers suit me at all," El-san said with a wry smile.
On his desk was a square, rustic-looking vase. It held pale purple, hydrangea-like flowers.
Hmm, Mion's taste is really good…
The next room was the guest room, which had a colorful vase filled with various colorful flowers, giving it a lively feel.
I planned to put some in my bedroom later, but the remaining unused vases were currently in the bathroom, apparently.
"I'd also like to decorate the entrance."
"Ah, you mean there's no space there right now. We have the space, so how about we put a shelf to store small items?"
"Yes."
Stepping out from the kitchen to the backyard, a line of flowerpots stood in the flowerbed in the back-right.
All of them had soil, and it seemed they would decide what seeds to sow after consulting with Sweee, the Fairies, and the White Dragon Princess.
"~♪"
"I'm looking forward to it~♪"
Since they decided to do it at night, I'll work on the glass.
I had a good idea, and it might be nice to place the finished product in the Southern Island church.

"Hello there~."
"Oh, Yata-sensei."
Back in the real world, Yata-sensei was at her desk, and Bell-senpai, having apparently logged out, opened her eyes. Then,
"Shou-kun. We've obtained information on the [Transfer Magic Circle] on Sabana-san's island."
""Ah…""
Apparently, someone from the [Library of Knowledge] guild, who won the lottery for public access yesterday, had used [Appraisal] on the [Transfer Magic Circle] there.
"What kind of story is it~?"
Since Yata-sensei hadn't heard the story, I briefly explained it.
It was about being able to determine the world coordinates from the [Individual ID Number] of a [Transfer Magic Circle].
"I see~. But~, did you get permission from the other party~?"
"Yes. We have properly obtained consent for this matter from Sabana-san, the island owner who started on that uninhabited island."
"In that case, it's okay~."
Oh, they actually got permission for that.
I was wondering if secretly investigating would be ethical.
"Sabana-san apparently said she wanted to visit the Southern Island once, so there might be a meeting between Esason and Kijimunaa?"
Ugh, I really want to see that…
