After a little while, the kids finished changing came and began to play with their sisters. I used to play in the river or something, but everyone was surprised at the salty taste of seawater when it hit their faces.

While they were playing with the seawater, Cruz came out of nowhere and before I knew it, they were playing together.

As I watched my sisters play, I noticed the children from the port city orphanage looking at me with envy.

'Would you like to play with us?'

I walked up to them and asked them.

But I have a job to do...

I'm gonna need help...

And, apparently, he was watching them in the middle of making dried fish. I guess the kids feel like they have to work to eat, but if they're kids, they need to play. It would be difficult for them all to play, as you'd expect, but they would have no problem playing in turn. I'm skipping work to play! I didn't want her to think that I was in charge of making dried fish, or rather, the girl who was in charge of organizing it.

It seems that the child who is in charge of organizing the project doesn't want to force them to work, so I got permission to play with them. I heard that they're going to work mainly for big kids because there are too many kids in this place. It seems that they're going to let those big kids play in turn, too...

We didn't have enough for all of them, so the small children started to play in their underwear, but some of them still didn't play in the sea. If you look closely, you can see that the cat sisters were also envious, but they were not in the sea.

'Why don't you play with the others?'

I'm afraid to go into the water.

But you look like you're having fun.

Oh, I'm pretty sure cats don't like water. No, my little sister is playing with it normally. Well, if she doesn't like it, we just teach her another game.

"Well, why don't we all play with them over here?

I moved to a place where the waves reach the beach, inviting the children who can not play in the sea. Then I took out a shovel and a bucket and made a sand pile with everyone's help.

'What do you do~?'

You're gonna make a big ol' mountain?

No, I'm building a castle now!

The kids were like, "? When I made the shape of the castle, they started to participate in making the castle. It was hard to make castles when all the members were together, so we made several mountains and had them divide into several groups and play with them. Since there were a lot of people, we asked them to use a piece of wood instead of a spatula.

The completed castle had various shapes which were not consistent. It seemed that they had never seen a real castle before, so they made it from their imagination. Come to think of it, I had seen a Japanese castle before, but I had never seen a foreign castle.

When I looked at the completed castles, there was one that had a high degree of perfection. For some reason, it seemed to be made by the carpenters' group that participated in the project. I noticed it during a break and was happy to see it as a nice change of pace. Before I knew it, my sisters had joined in, and eventually the kids who had been playing in the sea also joined in and played.

While repeating the work of playing in the sea and making dried fish, I was also building an orphanage. During the sea play, Cruz was swept away by the waves and had a hard time breaking his sandcastle and getting buried in the sand, but other than that, the kids seemed to be having a good time.

After a month, the port city orphanage was completed. In the middle of the project, the number of children increased, and we almost ran out of materials, but it was a great building with the number of rooms.

The children were overjoyed to see that they had a house of their own.

However, they can't stop being happy. In Frey's town, there is a way to become an adventurer, but in this port city, it's difficult. We have to find something that will help the children become independent.

That's right, our fight (to run an orphanage) is just beginning!
