I carved a statue of the god of creation in the workshop .
It is more than two meters tall which is slightly taller than humans .
I made it larger because it will be displayed in the church of Village Five .
Iām satisfied with the end product .
I even thought of failing in carving details when I was working on it .
Ancestor-san is looking at it with envious eyes .
No no, didnāt I already give you one when you ask me before?
ćMy human nature of wanting to collect everything is tingling . ć
Youāre a vampire .
If you can help me transport it, how about Iāll carve you one?
Instant response .
Fortunately, I wonāt have to carve it similar to this one .
Even in nature, woods donāt look the same .
Oops, I said something artist-like .
Fufufu .
ćBy the way, village chief, what are those?ć
ćMini Kuro, Yuki, Zabuton, Cat, and wine slime . ć
ćAll of them looked like they were about to move . Are you making them as souvenirs?ć
ćNo . The holy maiden of Village Fiveā¦ . . I mean, Celes wants them . ć
She warned me to stop calling her holy maiden and call her Celes instead .
If you think about it, itās only her job title .
I should reflect a little .
With the help of ancestor-sanās teleportation magic and five lizardmen, the statue of the god of creation was placed in theĀ hallĀ of Village Fiveās church .
They were able to place it in a good location but, is it okay to put it there?
Ancestor-san said that thereās no problem since the person in charge here is Celes .
On the back of the statue of the god of creation, there are sticks arranged to look like an aura .
I properly made a hole for it .
It is similar to what you can read in manga but in this case, itās 3D .
I was pondering if I did something superfluous but it looks mightier this way .
Ancestor-san was surprised . It looks like he has never seen something like this .
Isnāt it normal for a god to have an almighty aura?
The mini statues are not in theĀ hallĀ but in Celesā private room .
They were placed in the plant box .
Indeed .
Thatās a good place .
Afterwards, I observe around Village Five a little .
When we brought the unicorn here, I couldnāt bother to look around .
Village Five is more developed than before .
The high elves worked hard at the top of the hill making it a magnificent village .
What stands out are the village chiefās mansion in the north and the church next to it .
A little distance from there is the village council hall . Next to it is a largeĀ groundĀ and a small ranch .
Next to the ranch is a trading post .
I had Youko be the person in charge of Village Five and because of that, the village chiefās mansion was called Youkoās mansion .
The teleportation gate that connects to Big Tree Village is in its basement .
Youkoās mansion is considered as the private space of the acting village chief so it is treated as a normal house .
Presently, 20 servants are working there whom Youko chose personally .
Even though they live there, the teleportation gate is a secret to them .
There are covers for that secret but it seems like the servants have never come to investigate .
Also, there are three new mercuries .
They work as Youkoās assistant too .
Hih Foguma .
A man who looks like a middle-aged veteran warrior .
He looks like someone whoād rather cut someone with a sword than talk but heās surprisingly the scholar type .
In case of emergency, heāll be the head of the army organized by the village .
He seems to be popular with the widows of Village Five . He was given gifts frequently .
ćMy stomachās not that big yetā¦soć
He eats everything .
Loch Foguma
A young civil servant .
He wears glasses and he gives off the smart guy atmosphere .
When we first met, he acted cool but when I sent him to the civil servant girls to work, he collapsed .
He has a hot-blooded character .

ćPlease, send Miyo over . As expected, I canāt do everything on my own!ć
Iām sorry, please hang in there .
Nana Foguma
At first glance, sheās an ordinary village girl .
Though I might sound rude but sheās like someone you can meet anywhere .
However, she has this amazing ability .
She has the ability to extract and process necessary information from tons of information at hand . Her intuition makes her unable to overlook important information .
Sheās now based in Village Five and she will gather and organize information here .
The news and prices of crops in various places are important .
Currently, she seems to be in the process of selecting and training personnel for information gathering .
ā¦ā¦
But why would an information gatherer need training in dagger arts?
Is it for self-defense?
Since Youkoās mansion is supposed to be a private space, Youko performs her official duties as acting village chief in the village council hall .
The village council hall consists of a large conference room and a small private room .
The small private room is Youkoās office . She handles government affairs in that room as the acting village chief .
Several men and women are working there too . They were selected by Youko to be her secretaries in Village Five .
These secretaries .
I wonder if they already have experience as secretaries . Theyāre amazing .
And Youko executes her job as the acting village chief way better than I thought .
Next time, letās cook Youkoās favourite dish .
The large conference room has chairs and tables arranged in a circle . There is but one chair that is higher than the rest .
When I saw it, I thought it was Youkoās seat but that wasnāt the case .
Itās my seat .
ā¦ā¦
On the right side is the seat of the acting village chief, the secretary guiding me explained .
Is that so?
By the way, can you humor me? Is it normal for a place like this to have a chair higher than the restā¦ . . no?
I see .
Letās pray that I wonāt have any opportunity to attend a meeting at the village council hall of Village Five .

Thereās also a canteen in the village council hall .
The boss of the canteen here is someone who worked for Marla at Big Roof Shashaato .
ćIām still immature but please take care of me from now on . ć
The curry served is delicious enough .
The church is run by Celes and some priests .
I heard that all ceremonial rituals of Village Five were to be held here .
I know about weddings and funeralā¦ . ah, you have something like an adulthood ceremony?
There are new year festival and harvest festival too .
It seems like the last two will be held only with the cooperation of Youko .
It will be hard but do your best .
TheĀ groundĀ is the place where they can hold anĀ event .
On normal days, it serves as a playground for children .
It is quite a wide place .
The small ranch is a stud farm for horses and a parking lot for carriages .
This is only temporary since we are planning to build a large ranch at the foot of the mountainā¦ . it has already been completed .
I see .
In that case, shouldnāt I have let the unicorn stay here?
Eh?
I shouldnāt?
You were able to complete it with the help of the ranch where I left the unicorn?
Most of the horses here are also from that ranch?
Is that so?
I guess I have to go there again to say hello .
The trading post is a temporary storage and a sales place for the luggage carried by the horse-drawn carriages .
The real trading place is located at the foot of the mountain so this place is small .
At first, we thought of holding all trade transactions here but there was a concern about the slopes being too steep which is too tough for the horses .
That concern was raised by the adventurers in this area .
The upper trading post now acts more as a luggage area of traders at the foot of the mountain .

The construction speed at the side of the mountain is also comparable to the construction speed at the top of the mountain .
I guess they have a lot of manpower .
Since it is currently winter, construction seemed to have minimized to a reasonable degreeā¦ .
Still, looking from above, it is quite lively so see a lot of places under construction .
As for the current populationā¦ .
Letās not worry about it .
Iāll leave it to Youko .
It is cold in winter but I canāt see snow which is different from Big Tree Village .
I hear that it doesnāt snow here .
Itās also not that cold .
It is a small mountain so the wind is strong .
It seems like each house has its own measure against the wind .
Thatās probably the reason why doors and windows here donāt use hinges but are sliding instead .
That is true for the window but the doors are sliding doors in order for it not to block the road .
This place is on a side of a mountain so it is hard to widen the road .
I see .
It is a certain trait of a region .
Though the most prominent feature is the fall prevention fences and nets installed in various places .
Putting nets in a residential area, could it be that someone has already fallen before?
I wonder if that is the case since the color of the roofs are different .
I never received a news that someone died so I guess that person is only injured .
I hope that person is not seriously injured .
A group of horse-drawn carriages climbed up from the south side .
At the hood of the carriages lies the crest of the Goroun Company .
The carriages did not stop at the trading post but went towards Youkoās mansion .
Are they shipping the seafood from Goroun Company?
It looks like Iām going to enjoy fresh seafood tonight .

Itās cold so letās make a hot pot .
I stopped my Village Five tour and ran after the horse-drawn carriage of the Goroun Company .
I was stopped by the guard of Youkoās mansion . He said Iām someone suspicious .
