Chapter 744 – Angel Things ～with Tangerines～
The story of how the Garret Kingdom was divided was a surprise but not something that would have an immediate effect on the village.
Since there’s no “emigration faction”……
As for the “obedient faction”, it was decided that the angels would take turns supervising them.
The first one that will be in charge of supervision is Raz Maria.
She lost in the draw lots.
「Gran Maria, it’s quite unfortunate but I can only leave this job to you. Please take good care of Roze Maria for me.」
「Mother, Roze Maria is my daughter. You don’t even have to ask me to take care of her.」
Raz Maria smiled at Gran Maria and then left for Garret Kingdom along with ten other angels.
She’ll be the one to tell the name of the new country in the place controlled by the “obedient faction”.
Thank you in advance.
Raz Maria will be back….next spring.
That’s pretty soon if you ask me.
「Winter makes it difficult for anyone to travel between cities which nurtures evil deeds. A supervisor is necessary in order to crush anything like that. That means we’ll have to send a supervisor every winter.」
Gran Maria explained which made me realize what it is for.
Incidentally, before the draw lots, someone actually volunteered to be a supervisor.
「I’m very dissatisfied to leave village chief’s side as his guard but I don’t want anything to trouble him. I will go and be the supervisor.」
Reginleif volunteered to be the supervisor but everyone aside from her objected.
According to them, Reginleif will not hesitate to use extreme measures.
The worst-case scenario will be the extinction of the obedient faction. Hence, it is impossible to have Reginleif to be the supervisor.
…….
Extinction, she won’t do that, right?
「Given her achievements in the past…….」
Gran Maria muttered while averting her gaze.
Also, can that evil deed be even called an achievement?
No, thinking about it, Tier and Gran Maria’s group had dangerous titles: angel of annihilation and angels of holocaust.
Contrary to how they look, angels are such a rowdy bunch.

「Well, during the ancient times, angels were both short-tempered and short-sighted. They prefer solving problems with muscles rather than brains. That’s what people used to say.」
Malbit answered my question as she came into the room, got into the kotatsu, and picked up a tangerine.
Ancient angels….
「It’s from the time when they were wearing something resembling those golden equipment.」
I asked Malbit and the others, who had come to the village, to see the golden equipment of the angels, which had been unveiled a short while ago, and they had complicated looks on their faces.
「The heyday of the angels….I mean, it’s true that the equipment from that time was shining like those. It was glorious but also shameful.」
In other words, during the time you were calling yourselves godkins, right?
Ahhh, she glared at me.
Excuse me, the word “godkin” was taboo.
As Malbit reached out for her third tangerine, Kierbit, who was playing chess with Kuroyon, whined.
Apparently, she lost.
「Ki-chan, at least buy some time.」
「He read all my tactics so that’s impossible.」
Kuroyon and Kierbit’s match rule is first to win three will be the winner and Kuroyon won three straight sets.
「It can’t be helped. I’ll defeat Ki-chan’s enemy!」
Hearing Malbit’s motivation, Kuroyon sneered.
I guess you can call his match against Kierbit a warm-up.
Good luck to the both of you.

Since Kuroyon took on Malbit, my conversation partner became Kierbit.
「Yeah, tangerine’s great for my tired mind.」
I’m glad to hear that.
「By the way, I apologize for us being late. I never thought it would take us that long to get here. I originally planned to help with harvesting.」
Well, you’re doing your own job.
Don’t mind it.
「That said, I’ll be doing things this winter. I’m sorry that we weren’t able to do anything since we arrived just after the harvest season was over….」
You’ve been helping a lot by patrolling from the sky, right?
Besides, you brought some souvenirs.
About 500 kilograms of green magic ore from Garret Kingdom.
Loo was delighted since she could use them for her research while Gutt and the other blacksmiths were wondering what they should use them for.
It must be very expensive.
「Ahaha, I brought a lot after all….」
The number of angels who came with Kierbit this time was a hundred and fifty.
The total number of angels is said to be around 300 which means half of them are in the village.
Well, Raz Maria brought back ten of them.
「Some didn’t believe me when I told them about this place. I had to bring them here at least once.」
I see.
Well, I’ve heard about the migration of the angels’ plan.
This place is vast so we can accept them all anytime but Malbit and Kierbit plan to have them migrate little by little.
「The Garret Kingdom…. has been divided but they treated us well. We can’t just leave them behind.」
And there are also the things like the previous king’s brother, right?
「Yes and that’s not the only couple. There are other similar stories.」
Hahaha.
I think you should have trashed the trial earlier.
「The trial was also an ordeal to maintain the position of the angles in Garret Kingdom so it was really hard to do that. I was even too obsessed with it before.」
I’m glad that you were able to reflect.
「Yeah.」
Kierbit reached for her second tangerine.

In another room, Ruincia is talking to Beezel about the current situation of Garret Kingdom.
Beezel had some information himself but it was probably nothing compared to the amount of information Ruincia knew.
I asked her to share information with the Demon King’s Kingdom in order to avoid unnecessary conflict.
Sometimes, the most trivial things are the most important so Beezel made sure he was not missing a single word by taking notes….
Hnn?
It was the civil servant girls, who were standing beside Beezel, who were taking notes.
Beezel is….
Yeah, Beezel, you should bring down Fracia who’s on your knees.
Ruincia, you too. Bring Aurora down from your lap.
It looks like they are just bragging to each other about their granddaughters.
If you want, I’ll take care of Fracia and Aurora myself.
「No, we’re fine.」
Beezel took Aurora from Ruincia and put her on his lap too.
Then, Ruincia took the notes from the civil servant girls….and wrote down all the information about Garret Kingdom.
「Once you’re done reading it, dispose of it.」
She handed the notes to Beezel, who was taking care of Fracia and Aurora.
Beezel hurriedly reads the information on the note and says…Okay, got it.
I won’t take Fracia and Aurora from you so please read it slowly.
If you miss something, things might get troublesome.
By the way, why didn’t you do it from the start?
You wanted to brag about each other’s granddaughter?
I guess it wasn’t my imagination that you seemed to be bragging with each other earlier.
From my point of view, both of them are my daughters, so please take it easy.
I’ll leave tangerines here.
Fracia and Aurora can eat them too.
But don’t eat too much….no, I don’t have to say that. Beezel and Ruincia know what to do.

When I looked at the garden, I saw Reginleif and Suarurou teaching martial arts to some of the high elves and lizardmen.
It must be for the martial arts tournament.
Ah, some beastgirls are studying with them too.
It’s good that you’re energetic but don’t overdo it.

Tier, Gran Maria, Kuudel, and Corone are….
It looks like they are showing the newly arrived angels around the village.
Please do what you can in order to prevent trouble.
Make sure they meet the kuros, the spiders, and the dragons.
Don’t forget to greet the horses and the cows at the ranch.
Yeah, if not, the horses and the cows will sulk.
Especially the horses.
You can have the eagle and the phoenix chick, Aegis, meet them at dinner.
The fairy queen should be….playing with the children so let them meet her by dinner too.
I’ll tell her that there will be fruit ice cream dessert at dinner to make sure she’ll be there.
Though it’s very unlikely for her to skip dinner.
Then, see you…hnn?
Tier stopped me.
What’s wrong?
「He is the village chief, Hiraku-sama-desu.」
Ah, come to think of it, we’ve never formally greeted each other.
Most of the angels who had come to the village for the first time had wandered off after a long flight over the forest so I had put off greeting them until later.
Ehto, I’m also Tier, Gran Maria, Kuudel, and Corone’s husband.
Nice to meet you.
I greeted them as cheerfully as possible but for some reason, they looked at me as if I were a rare beast.
Why?

When I returned to my room with tangerine refill, Kuroyon came up to me as if wanting me to praise him.
I see.
How about loser Malbit?
I asked Kierbit and she said she had gone to the hot spring.
「She said she was still tired from traveling. She’s just probably being bitter.」
I guess so.
I patted Kuroyon’s head.
