Why don't you build a village on top of the world tree

A number of concerns were raised at a conference on the necessity of building an air market in the former Kidato Village Public Hall.

One of them is the problem with light sources.

"It's inevitable that the goods loading of the market will take place from evening to night, isn't it?

Return the chief consent to the inquiry of the chief of the village of Kidato.

Even during the day, which is business hours, some items will be loaded, but if a consolidated amount is to be loaded, after business hours when there are no more customers, nights will be used from evening onwards.

"Then you will need a light source in between. Takowka does not have enough light to allow for a detailed inspection of the product. However, it is the hope of our inhabitants to avoid setting fire."

"When I get old, the night's early."

When one said with a laugh, the old men on the spot laughed as they agreed.

Takowka can only ensure enough light to plant on either side of the road to illuminate your feet. The use of fire is likely to delay the escape of the inhabitants of the former village of Kidato, who are located under the market when the fire strikes.

"What are we going to do?

Richay asks me sideways.

There can be no option on the market not to install a light source in order to carry out the quantification of goods and also from the point of view of crime prevention.

When it comes to something else that comes to mind as a light source......

I look out the window with signs of early summer, and I remember.

"Is it time for the Winglight to emerge"

"Winglight or I miss you!

One of the old Kidato Village residents, an elderly Devil Bug Hunter, hits his knee. No one around you seems to know the winglight, even if it should be just the work of the year.

Winglight is a demon worm with the properties of light accumulation on its wings. Its ability is so high that if you leave it in the sun during the day, it will continue to light up enough to read the book within three meters of the perimeter for the night.

Its wings, which are very good as cold light, are, however, traded at extremely high prices.

Winglight is a demonic worm about two metres long with a shape similar to fluorescence, and the emergence period is very little during the summer. The theory is that adult life expectancy is probably ten days, and no larvae have been discovered.

Moreover, it only appears above the no-layer in the clouds, making it difficult to discover that it lurks in rainy days, especially rainy clouds. There's a story that I realized it was a wing light because I keep hitting it forever if I think it's lightning.

It is an expensive substitute because of the demand but low supply, but this winglight wing is installed in large quantities in Yoinsley's fictitious library as a light source, informing both internally and externally of Yoinsley's financial and intellectual appetite.

Richay, who was immersed in such a fictitious library, also naturally knew about Winglight's wings, so he looked at me anxiously.

"Can you hunt?

"Worth a try"

If this doesn't work, we'll be creating something like a warehouse for storing goods in a different place from the air market, where we'll burn the fire to ensure the lights while we inspect the goods. Maintenance costs a lot, though.

The demon bug hunter from the old village of Kidato stood up with a grin to be amused.

"I've lived around here a long time, but that's not how Winglight looks. Pull out past sightings, and then Mayor Amane can wait."

A demon bug hunter ran to the library in the public hall, saying it was a big hunt, blood was noisy.

The chief of Kidato laughs bitterly while dropping off the Devil Bug Hunter.

"If we solve the problem with the light source, other concerns are noise."

"I'm thinking about introducing a soundproofing device with a brunch mimic crust."

"It's something that uses elasticity."

The mechanism of soundproofing devices developed in Yoinsley continues to be sophisticated, to the point where even materials are found to be quite effective.

Most importantly, Branch Mimic is a demon worm that is difficult to hunt. Unlike Winglight, it's not so hard to discover, but by its very nature, it's a tough opponent to hunt for a powerful warthog hunter like Billows, who boasts a strong bow.

He's a good opponent for me, so let's find Winglight's crusade and hunt him down.

The chief of the village of Kidato speaks of his last concern.

"Later, the induction of customers using the market. It's a way to make sure you don't get lost in residential areas."

"We are also thinking about setting up a guide board, but don't worry too much about getting lost as we will use the air corridor from the town entrance to get it straight to the market"

The plan is to set up a direct corridor from the entrance to the old village of Kidato and two duet bridges to the air market, which will also be the first air corridor in the town of Takakus.

The chief of the village of Kidato nods.

"That's all we can discuss right now. Shall we wait until we have the blueprints? How long will it take?

"Thinking about going hunting, it'll be around the middle of summer."

"Got it. I'm looking forward to it."

At the end of the meeting, the residents leave the meeting room.

I started cleaning up the conference room with Richay and the chief of Kidato.

"Recently, I have a feeling that the air I was staring at is starting to move."

The chief of the village of Kidato says abruptly.

I was cleaning my desk, and I leaned my neck against the words of the chief of the village of Kidato.

"Are you talking about the air market?

"There's also that, but I never thought we could have a market in this Kidato village area where there was little change. I'm looking forward to seeing something new in the sights that I'm getting too used to."

"Design a market that meets your expectations"

"I'd love to. I'd also like to go shopping when it's done"

As I realized, the chief of the village of Kidato looks at me.

"Can residents of the town of Tacax also open stores on the market?

"Yeah, it's on a permit basis, so please apply to me or Richay. We will contact you as soon as we have an institutional relationship, as we also plan to tax you according to your sales"

"Really? Will they also sell sinks?

"I am thinking of opening it in the form of a souvenir office on the side of the former village of Kidato"

There is naturally no ram bird hut on the side of the old village of Kidato. And the sales office, of course.

Tourists coming from the side of the former village of Kidato had also been asked to create a sales office for rum birds. The current situation is that we have to walk four kilometers across the duet bridge to the old village of Takakus.

In conjunction with the opening of the market, it is the decision that if a permanent shop dealing with the souvenirs of the town of Tacax is put out, it will also become a busy market with two birds of one stone.

"- Mayor Amane, this is a collection of Winglight sightings. Once upon a time, there were a bunch of records coming from the Devil Bug Hunter Guild in Kattera City to hunt for Winglights."

All the demon bug hunters from the old village of Kidato brought was a record of four winglight crusade operations.

All of them have expedited to the cloud-no-layer, and in the third and fourth, they have actually crusaded the wing lights.

"I don't know the details because I don't want to participate. But I heard you had a problem for the fifth time."

"Is this the fifth time?

I only have four minutes here, though.

The Devil Bug Hunter pulled his jaw, pointing to the ceiling.

"It was not until about fifty years ago that the fifth time took place. Dead and injured are the only ones not out, but we witnessed a variant of Bird Eater Spider eating Winglight"

"When it comes to variants, what?

"They throw a nest net. The demon bug hunters saw how the flying wing lights were thrown at his net and easily caught."

It's a throwing rope spider. If Bird Eater Spider, two meters long, does that to you, there's no escape.

But fifty years ago, the individual witnessed is definitely dead. You should be careful, though, because it doesn't necessarily mean you don't have a successor.

"What's your investigation into that variant?

"You haven't done it. With the decision that it is no longer suitable as a hunting ground for wing lights due to the effects of the variant, more than the cloudy no-layer around this area will henceforth be left unattended. Non and the others were full of hands to ensure safety around the village of Kidato, so they didn't put their hands on the top. You should be careful. I can't imagine what's going on."

As far as looking up from the bottom, it doesn't look particularly problematic.

If you've been abandoned for fifty years, it's possible that the old devil worms are walking wide.

"If the town of Tacax were to become urbanized, we would need to bridge the clouds, and we should do a little research."

They may be devouring branches around the bruncheater.

After cleaning up the conference hall, I'll borrow the Winglight Crusade records and go back to the office with Richay.

"We'd better head to the clouds."

"Are you going from Katella City?

Nod to Richay's question.

The city of Kattella has branches in the lower and middle cloud layers, so there is a bridge that climbs to the middle cloud layers.

"I think it will. The guild of the city of Kattella will have a record at the time, so let me read your material too."

In addition to me and Billows and two experienced members, one or two luggage carriers will be recruiting at the Guild in Katella City.

Being an abandoned hunting ground for fifty years could result in large, stiff individuals even about Branch Eaters, so the type that can be towed with maneuvers like mine and the type that has the power of a blow special like Billows will proceed with vigilance so that they can move into battle at any time.

I have to tell Billows and the others to get ready.

Cross the duet bridge to reach the branch where the office is located.

"Let's stop by the public hall for a moment. I want to have everything I need to crusade Winglight."

"Okay."

Go alongside Richay to the Takakus Town Public Hall.

Walk in the clear breeze of early summer and creep through the doorways of the public and private buildings.

Speaking to the Devil Bug Hunter who was packing in the guard room, he told them that he was planning a Winglight Crusade Expedition and headed to a shared warehouse.

"Oh, you two walked away."

Melmie, who was sitting on the floor of a shared warehouse and sculpting on a wooden slab, notices us and puts his neck around it.

"Did you miss Mr. Melmie? I miss you. I missed you too, Mr. Melmie, sit down beside me, see?"

Melmie pounds beside herself.

I crouch next to Melmie to see the sculpture I'm about to make.

"I'm here to see if I have the supplies I need to crusade Winglight. Looks like the sculptures are going well."

The wooden plank depicting the second half of the myth that Melmie is carving is the thing that adorns the entrance to the dining room. It is a sculpture paired with a watermark sculpture left behind by Mermy's adoptive father, the manager of a wooden cage shop.

Assuming it will be decorated indoors, they are carving out the easy-to-read drawings intact even in the darkened indoors at night. Though some of them have sharpened quite boldly, curves and the like have been handled meticulously.

The bitter-wing bird part decorating the end of the myth was irregularly worn with diamond-shaped and hexagonal fine holes to describe the feathers flowing in the wind one by one.

Richay also looks at Mermie's watermark carvings and admires them.

"If you pay attention to the details, you'll follow the wind."

"I was worried about how to reproduce how I was flying, and I wondered if I could visualize the invisible wind flow."

As Melmie proudly said, following the rhombus and hexagonal flow that seemed to be worn irregularly, I realized that it represented a natural fluid like wonder and wind. I guess this soft flow can only be put out because it's Melmie.

"You're almost done."

"It'll take until this evening, though. Did you check supplies? You have to get it done."

"Whoa, good luck."

Back up Melmie, I'll see between the walls of the shared warehouse.

The number of iron arrows secured as equipment, the condition of the tent used for the expedition, etc. were quantified and summarized on paper.

In the evening, Mermy's watermark carving was completed as declared, and the public hall was completed in its original sense.
