I had a domino tipping contest with the mountain elves.

It was a lot of fun.

There was nothing wrong with this domino tipping contest but there was a problem elsewhere.

Let’s just say I had some plans for this domino tipping contest.

I had asked the film crew of Irre to record it.

And when he was editing the video, it was found…..

「T-this doesn’t convey the fun of toppling dominoes at all!」

The film crew was not satisfied with the footage they recorded.

「What kind of camera angle is this? This isn’t satisfying at all.」

「I wanted to take a big picture but the dominoes fell so quickly that I missed several scenes……」

「The live feed also failed to convey the gimmicks that are being activated one after another.」

TN: Yeah. I’m not sure why they are calling it domino but it’s certainly rube goldberg machine

The entire film crew was quite seriously devastated.

「To think we would actually……We were invited and sought out for baseball, parades, and swan races and must have become overconfident due to achievements. Village Chief, I’m very sorry about this!」

Ah, yeah, I mean no.

「It was especially disappointing that we weren’t even able to capture the grand finale trick which is the fall of a tray on Doraim-sama! And to think that Doraim-sama even put his body on the line for us……」

Ah.

Even I feel bad for that part not being shot.

It excited the audience too much.

The falling tray was custom made so it won’t hurt those who’ll be hit by it. Even so, Doraim’s performance was so realistic.

I’m sure those who weren’t at the event will want to see it……

「And now, we are being summoned by Raimeiren-sama who wanted to see it.」

I see.

Ehto, I’ll cover for you if you want.

「No. We will take responsibility for our failure.」

A-alright.

Take it easy.

By the way, the original plan was for me to be the one to be hit by the tray.

However, no matter how much I explained to Kuro, Yuki, and Zabuton that I won’t get hurt, they were still so worried, so I was replaced.

Kuro, Yuki, and Zabuton even used the time when I was abducted by birds before.

I don’t know how a falling tray could lead to that but Kuro, Yuki, and Zabuton didn’t want to, so I had no choice but to give up.

Thank you, Doraim, for standing up for me.

And Irre, who failed to take the video of Doraim’s heroism is……

I don’t know what you should say to Raimeiren but make sure you apologize to Doraim.

「Understood. And we will work hard to ensure that this will never happen again.」

Yeah, I’m counting on you.

In the village, during fall, you can see the residents training for combat in various places.

After the fall harvest will be the martial arts competition.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

Everyone’s working hard.

…….

Ririus, Riguru, and Ratte were also participating in the combat training.

It’s not uncommon for children to participate in combat training but they are usually training among themselves.

If anyone would be leading them, it would either be Gulf or Daga.

However, Ririus, Riguru, and Ratte were being taught with swordsmanship by the angel Sururou.

Unusual.

Suarurou may look young but she is the mother of Suaruriu and Suarukou.

Moreover she has a history of being the strongest angel.

In fact, even as an amateur, I can conclude that Suarurou is a sword master.

Thus, I have no intention of underestimating her.

I don’t really intend to underestimate her but……

I was worried so I asked Gran Maria when she came over.

Are those three close to Suarurou?

「I don’t know if they are close but she has been teaching them swordsmanship for a while now.」

Really?

「Yeah. Those three asked her to teach them swordsmanship. She has the perfect physique to teach them if you ask me.」

Ah.

I was wondering why they were not being taught by Gulf or Daga. So that’s the reason. It’s because of her size.

「In any case, Suarurou-sama’s sword skill is pretty amazing.」

Heh.

「If it comes to close combat with a sword, I think she can even beat Tier-sama.」

That’s some pretty high praise.

「It is. However, Tier-sama would win before she gets close enough for close combat.」

I see.

I’ve never seen Tier wield a sword.

I’ve seen her and Loo punching each other a few times though.

Anyway, do you think Suarurou can be trusted to handle them?

「I think so. They should be fine. She’s taking a good care of them.」

That’s good to know.

「By the way, village chief.」

What is it?

「That over there, are you just going to leave that alone?」

Gran Maria pointed to the forest on the outskirts of the village.

There, Hiichirou and Guraru in dragon form, are fighting Guronde, who’s also in dragon form.

Guronde’s not serious, of course.

She’s just handling the attacks of Hiichirou and Guraru with precision.

In contrast, Hiichirou and Guraru seem to be challenging Guronde with all their might.

……

It should be fine leaving them alone.

I was informed beforehand that they would train.

Girar assured me of Guronde’s ability.

No matter how hard they’ll try, Hiichirou and Gurarou wouldn’t be able to would Guronde.

And Guronde would never seriously injure Hiichirou and Guraru.

「They won’t get seriously injured but they’ll receive minor injuries, right?」

Well, yes, but that training was something that Hiichirou and Guraru requested.

They were concerned that they were not very useful during the battle with the white bone whale they encountered during the parade outside.

As far as I’m concerned, that was a spur of the moment battle and Guraru is still a child let alone Hiichirou.

However, he wants to be strong and it is not good to interfere with his desire to be strong.

Even his mother, Hakuren, allowed it.

So, as long as there is no damage to the village, I’ll leave them be.

By the way, Hiichirou first asks Raimeiren to train him.

However, Raimeiren had a vision of a trained, independent Hiichirou.

Perhaps she saw the shadow of Hakuren, who ran away from home, on him.

And so, Raimeiren refused to train him but Hiichirou did not give up.

Guronde was then chosen as the instructor.

Seeing Hiichirou and Guraru training together with Guronde, Raimeiren sobbed “I made the wrong move!” to Dors.

Dors had a troubled look on his face.

One autumn day.

A woodway, not a railway, circles the mountain where Village Five is located.

Youko submitted to me a plan to extend the woodway.

The woodway was originally built to bring goods to the underground shopping street but it also transports people.

Its convenience shouldn’t be just limited to the underground shopping street but to various parts of Village Five too.

However, even if you say expand it, it only runs on a tunnel in the mountain.

Expanding the current tunnel would be dangerous.

After all, the mountain where Village Five is is currently crowded with buildings.

Digging another hole in the mountain would be scary.

That’s why it is difficult to build more woodway.

Shouldn’t we just need to add more vehicles?

When I expressed my opinion, the expansion plan was immediately withdrawn.

I guess they didn’t even want to pass it from the beginning.

Instead, a new woodway plan was submitted.

The contents are……

It seems to be a plan to build a woodway connecting Village Five and Shashaato City.

I see but, isn’t Village Five and Shahaato City already connected by teleportation gates?

Is a woodway even necessary?

「The goal is to relieve congestion at the teleportation gates.」

Currently, the teleportation gates are being used for moving people and goods.

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Quite actively at that.

Therefore, it is said that it is taking a lot of time to wait before people can pass.

They would like to increase the number of teleportation gates if possible but that’s too difficult to do.

So, the plan is to only let people, who urgently need to move, and leave the non-urgent cargo and goods to the woodway?

Have you already surveyed where the woodway line will be drawn?

As for the maintenance of the woodway and its security, they are planning to ask……the neighboring elven villages to take care of it.

So, the groundwork has already been laid.

Fumu.

Since it’s already secured, why not build a railway instead of a woodway?

「Is there a problem with the woodway?」

Considering that the main purpose of the plan is to transport goods, I’m not confident with a monorail woodway.

Also, woodway would be vulnerable to rain.

「I see. Then, can we only use the cart and rails like the model village chief made before?」

We had originally planned to go with that but we were wary of rail theft so we ended up with the woodway in the tunnel.

We went with monorail because we were wary of derailment.

Considering that it would carry goods to Village Five and Shashaato City, it would be a massive transport.

Railway trolleys are easier to manufacture than monorail bogies and they are easier to maintain too.

I’ll have to consult the mountain elves first.

Also, we have to make two rails parallel and adjust the angle on curves…..

「As for that, didn’t you experiment several times before building the woodway?」

Technology is advancing.

Let’s experiment again.

How about laying the rails for a short distance for now and if there are no problems, let’s extend it.

「Short distance? Considering that it might get wasted……how about from the foot of the mountain to the northeast?」

Northeast?

Connecting to the swan race?

「I’m thinking about the shrine.」

I see.

Well, I’ll leave that to you but I’ll have to discuss this plan with the mountain elves first before I approve it.

「Understood.」

Councilor A: We need to relieve the congestion at the teleportation gate!

Councilor B: Can’t we just ask people to move around instead of using the teleportation gate?

Councilor C: Can you even ask those who already experience the convenience of the teleportation gate to walk?

Councilor D: Using the teleportation gate for everything makes it crowded.

Councilor E: Let’s separate people from things. Let’s mave the teleportation gate a people exclusive way.

Councilor F: How are we going to transport goods then? Making it exclusive for people to use is impossible.

Councilor G: ……can’t we just use the woodway?

Councilor H: Eureka!

Village Chief: Is it a business technique to first submit an absurd plan before submitting a plan that looks like it will go through?

Youko: No, I needed an explanation about the woodway.

Village Chief: Don’t make a meta statement.
