Chapter 108.1. Management Meeting!

-Miu’s POV-

A gentle spring breeze blows gently across the plain. My gray hair floats in the wind, glistening in the sunlight.

The date on the calendar is mid-July. Mii-chan, who finished her final exam with a perfect score of 100, was watering her plants in the garden of My Room, where a spring breeze was blowing.

If I study hard, I can get a perfect score because of my previous life experience. Eh, huh?

I’ve got the experience, the knack, you know. My mom and dad praised me and said, “Today is hamburger steak curry,” they made me the best feast in the world.

Of course, it was handmade by my mom, not by a cook.

So I was in a good mood and humming water to the plants.

“Mmm-hmm. Hurry up and sprout them, or I’ll scrape the seeds off!”

“That’s a scary fairy tale if you think about it.”

“Grow more buds and grow into trees. If you don’t get enough fruit. I’ll chop off the trunk.”

While Frigg-oneesan was talking to her, Mii-chan, the fairy jump up and down, watering the plants with the watering can.

The gray-haired, childlike girl with eyes deeper blue than sapphires sparkled as she danced, her tiny arms and legs fluttering in the air.

The lovely Mii-chan’s lively dance was so cute that it looked like a fairy’s dance.

Mii-chan waters the plant every night, and in just 14 days, it has grown to a height of about 3 meters.

However, the tree has a mysterious purple aura, and its trunk is twisted and knobby. It was a planted tree with an ominous look.

“I heard that fairy tales are really scary stories. Cinderella, for example, ends with a dove gouging out the eyes of the people!”

“That would be a classic movie. If the young lady is right, Cinderella would be a different story.”

“It’s going to be an ugly struggle between people in the end!”

“That’s a zombie movie. So, I guess we’re done with the frank jokes, and can we get down to the serious business of what’s with the tree?”

Finishing her Japanese-style comic dialogue, the blonde beauty smiles bewitchingly and turns her head to the plant Mii-chan is growing. It’s a haunting tree, so she’s probably wondering. It’s not a dad joke, okay?

“This is a mysterious tree grown from a mysterious seedling, a tree that will die if you don’t water it every day for 15 days, and you can pick different kinds of fruit by giving it fertilizer according to the days of the week. The mercenary crab dropped it the other day.”

There are three plants that I grow. I grew them with great care.

“Hmmm…you remember the combination, don’t you, young lady?”

Frigg-oneesan asks me like it’s nothing, and I answer honestly. I don’t remember everything, as expected.

“Seedlings, Treasure, ……… let’s see, I remembered the combinations that would yield the materials I needed.”

“Hmmm. Of course, you remember the combinations, don’t you, young lady?”

Frigg-oneesan asks, her eyes sharp. I failed, I clammed up. Frigg seems to have noticed my slight hesitation.

“I was thinking of adding more Seedlings for now, two of them are Seedlings.”

“And the last one?”

“I want to add an MP increase grant to the magic armor I’m planning to make ………, so maybe ………… Black Diamond of Darkness.”

I turned away and whispered a few words in a whisper, but Frigg-oneesan was so impressed that she grabbed my hand with gusto, her eyes moist and her voluptuous body pressed against mine.

“Young lady. I’ll raise them, you leave the rest to me.”

“I don’t need it when I can pick the berries tomorrow!”

“You should be ordering me around here. [Let’s go get them!]

“The name of the operation stinks! No!”

Mii-chan is not a good one for colorful tricks. Mii-chan won’t get defeated by tricks.

Please, Frigg-oneesan won’t give up, and please give up. I try to push her away, and a struggle ensues. Frigg is too greedy for precious metals, you know.

“Totally. Are you two too busy rambling to be bothered? What are you doing if you think I won’t wait forever for you to come to me?”

“Help me, Grandpa!”

Miu asked for help from Grandpa Odin, who had come out of the house while mugging the cheeks of the sullen Frigg-oneesan, who was only going to taste a little, just a little bit.

In the end, I convinced her that if she got more Seedlings, I would show her the combination that would yield the gems and give her the Seedlings, and we went back to My Room house. I was tired, totally exhausted.

“It’s already 22:00, don’t be silly.”

Mii-chan complains, puffing out her cheeks, but of course, Frigg-oneesan doesn’t care, and she lays down on the sofa, crosses her slender legs, and smiles glamorously.

“You’re such a little girl at this time of night, young lady.”

“Mii-chan is just a little girl.”

Miu sat on the sofa and tried to cross her legs, but her short legs made her look cute like a mascot. 22:00 is the time for Miu to be a bad girl. It’s like an hour left until Takano Miu’s activity limit.

“Wasn’t there a weekly meeting today? If you’re kidding, I’ll back to my research, okay?”

Grandpa Odin glares at us with intimidation in his one-eyed eyes, so I cough cutely and make a serious face.

“So, shall we have the Asgard meeting? I forget how many times. I’m done with my quota.”

Popping out a Quality Improvement Potion I from the item box, I pile it in a heap on the table. It comes in a small vial, like a nutritional drink.

It is an item to be sprinkled on the farm. Once sprinkled, the effect lasts for a month.

Frigg reaches over and puts it in her item box, then nods as she displays the list and confirms that there are enough for the planned number of items.
