While Ikuru is out, Iâll grow the princessâ tree and make a blessing potion for the princess.
âSince Ikuru is having a hard time in the forest, I should help him.â
Itâs another beautiful day in the garden.
Ikuru has been out in the forest since this morning, in search of the âKukuri Treeâ. The kukuri tree is a key ingredient for valuable antidotes to poison. There is a possibility that the kukuri tree grows in this forest as well, but the chances seem low. Thatâs why Ikuru has been going to the forest for two weeks now, to look for the kukuri tree.
His usual routine is to leave the house in the morning, and return home in the afternoon. I feel like a lazy boss, though. I see Ikuru off, prepare my lunch, and wait. In between, I do the laundry and make recovery potions.
Yeah, I feel kind of fulfilled!
Whereâs Maro?
When I looked around, all I could see were the three chickens and a cow. The only other creatures are the birds and butterflies flying around. Maro, the snow rabbit, who always runs up to me whenever I go out into the yard, is missing.
âDid he follow Ikuru again?â
Lately, Maro has been following Ikuru on his quest every now and then. Thereâs no danger, and Ikuru doesnât seem to be particularly burdened by it, so Iâm leaving it up to Ikuru and Maro to decide. Besides, itâs lonely to go to the forest alone, after all. Though, unlike me, Ikuru wouldnât be scared at all.
Hmmm⌠doesnât the garden seem a little cramped for all these plants?
Itâs all neatly arranged, but with vegetables, fruits, medicinal plants, magical mangroves, animals and⌠the garden feels much smaller. Iâll ask God if he can make the garden bigger next time.
In the meantime, I need to make a blessing potion for the princess.
Iâm going to the magic mangrove near the fence to make preparations. However, I just need to exchange the bottles for points.
âPrincess, please make a beautiful flower bloom⌠ăAngelâs Singing Sanctuaryă!
In response to my voice, the magic mangrove flower bloomed and wilted, and a small fruit grew from where the flower was.
That⌠it didnât seem like it was like that the last time I did it⌠but didnât I power up or anything?
I honestly still donât know much about this ăAngelâs Singing Sanctuaryă that I got from God. I can grow plants, make recovery potion potions, and make condiments easily. Itâs such a useful skill⌠but⌠I still feel like thereâs something more to it. Ahh, I have no idea what it is, exactlyâŚ!
Oh, GodâŚ!
I was about to use the ăAngelâs Singing Sanctuaryă to create a potion for the princess, when I had a terrible realization. I only just remembered it. My partner, Maro, was gone.
Maro usually climbs up the tree to remove the flowers and berries from the high branches for me, but today he is gone. In other words, I canât pick the fruit myself. Some would fall from the tree naturally, but relying on only those fruits was inefficient.
âThereâs nothing to be done about it. Maybe Iâll stop for today and make a fancy lunch.â
