I wanted to enjoy a slow life while exploring the territory with a secret gift [craft skill], but I was intentionally banished to the frontier by pretending to be incompetent.

Volume 4-: The worries of the Holy Beast

Chapter 7-: Let's reflect on the Holy Beast!

(TL By GUST)

Head upstream along the beautiful river that flows into the holy spring.

　Of course, the water of the river flowing into the extremely transparent spring was very beautiful, and the shadow of the fish swimming against the flow was clearly visible.

　And the party who arrived at the clear stream, which can be called the sacred river, first went to wash the body of the sacred beast Yurikon.

　It seems that the Holy Beast had a daily routine to rub his body against the ground with the herb colony that he was going to give a good scent in order to eliminate his own animal odour.

　It is not just one herb, but the fact that it continued to rub against the herbs in the appropriate place depending on the day resulted in wearing a ridiculously complicated scent.

　So, first of all, I had to wash off the "fake holy scent" that had permeated the body.

"Rest, please give me a new wash cloth."

"Please add a new horse brush and soap here as well."

"OK. Look, craft. Don't wash the cloth first."

　I received an order from two people desperately washing the body of the Holy Beast next to the river, crafting the item and depositing it in Koritoko.

　At first, I was planning to wash the Holy Beast with them, but I was gently turned down by the two and the Holy Beast and turned into a material unloader.

　Such a sacred beast is now standing in a simple bathtub up to the knee position that I crafted.

　From this bathtub, a cylinder extended toward the river and connected to the river.

　The water that flows from the upstream flows into the bathtub when it enters the cylinder.

　Then, the drainage is connected to the downstream as it is, and when the plug is removed, it flows out from there.

"Next was natural soap and brushes. Alright, craft!"

　In order to protect the beautiful river, I chose and crafted the safest soap I know, but instead, it had a weak detergency and took a long time to wash.

　According to the person who sold it, "soap that people can drink".

　In fact, in the town, the salesperson had a performance of drinking soap melted in water and putting water in a tank containing fish.

　To be honest, it was quite awkward, but when I heard that the soap was made by a famous professor at the Royal Academy of Magic, I decided to believe it.

　The professor and I had a lot of relationships when we were students-let's leave that story for now.

　Anyway, I remembered how to make a magical soap that I could use with peace of mind by going under the professor with my feet.

"Huh, it's over"

"It was quite hard work."

　After a few crafts, Terrine walked to me, wiping the sweat off her forehead.

　Apparently, the holy beast's laundry is over.

　The holy beast seemed to get out of the bathtub and into the river, washing away the soap bubbles on his body.

　When I craft a soft towel, I hand it over to her and craft a tea set on an instantly made table.

"Thank you for your hard work. Do you drink herbal tea?"

"Thank you. Thank you."

"I can't stand"

　When they sat down in their chairs, Koritoko came next to Terrine, saying, "Over there! Over there!"

　I pour the crafted herbal tea into a cup for four people, then craft a plate for Falsi sitting next to me and add the herbal tea in the same way.

　As far as I know, the dog at home didn't like the smell of this herbal tea and didn't drink it, but Falsi said, "Waon! I screamed, and then I thrust his face further and started licking it.

　After a while, when the soaked Holy Beast returns, four people will wipe their bodies with a large towel prepared in advance.

　After that, we presented herbal tea to the sacred beast and took a break for a while.

　Before we left, we made everything back into materials and then we headed upstream.

"Is it quite far from here?"

　Terrine asks from Falsi's back.

"No, it's not that far. After all, the girls in that village sometimes come to pick herbs and flowers. "

"Maybe the place that the Holy Beast is saying"

"It's no wonder if the Lord is also a villager."

"What did your sisters say about the home of the Holy Beast?''

　I wondered if Koritoko's words were unexpected for the Holy Beast, and after the words were cut off for a moment, I answered again.

"... I don't live there separately ... why are you called by that name?"

"Because when my sisters go to pick herbs and flowers, I often see holy beasts, so everyone said that they might live there."

"I just secretly watched over my daily routine and the maidens who came to pick flowers from a distance."

　It seems that the Holy Beast just appeared in the place for his own hobbies and profits.

　While the subtle air flowed between the party, only the Koritoko boy kept talking endlessly about how wonderful the Holy Beast, who was kindly watching over the village, was telling the village.

　Thanks to that, by the time I arrived at my destination, the Holy Beast also reflected on his actions, saying, "Did I ever treat others like this ... I will be as quiet as possible from now on." That's right.

"I've arrived, here."

　Then we arrived at the "secret garden" according to the Holy Beast, which is located a little inside from the upper reaches of the river.
