Chapter 747 – Joint Pain and World Tree Field
Now that the martial arts tournant is over, preparations for winter are in full swing.
However, we have been gradually preparing for so ti and each of us knows what we have to do so there’s no confusion.
My job today was to check on the beehive sheds.
I look for any damaged parts and repair them…..
I couldn’t find any damaged parts.
Well, if anything was damaged, the spiderlings would report it imdiately.
The bees told there was no problem, which ans beehive inspection complete.
The fat queen bee seems like it’s healthy too which is good.
Hnn?
The joints in your legs hurt lately?
That’s because you’re overweight.
You need to exercise.
What?
You want to exercise but were unable to do so because your feet hurt?
Hmmm.
Joint pain due to being fat….
Areh?
Aren’t they supposed to be exoskeletons?
In the first place, do bugs feel pain?
No, no. I shouldn’t be bound by my common sense.
That was the common sense from a different world.
Since it says it hurts, it must really hurt.
I’ll ask Loo to prepare so dicine or even use the leaf of the world tree…..
The queen bee says she’s afraid of the leaves of the world tree so I can only ask Loo to concoct so dicine.
I’ll bring it to you later.
Hahaha, I know you’re happy but, is it okay for you to move around that much?
Is it still painful?
I better prepare the dicine fast.

Back at the mansion, I asked Loo for so dicine to cure or alleviate the bee’s joint pain but what she gave was a strange look.
「Are you sure you’re talking about a bug with exoskeleton?」
Yeah, that’s what I thought too.
「Fuhn, maa, if you feed it with nutritious food, it will heal on its own, right?」
Well, its joint pain is caused by obesity so I guess we should prevent it from getting any fatter.
「Ah, so the patient is that queen bee. Since it’s the one….perhaps this should work.」
Loo brought out a square piece of wood.
Is that so sort of dicine?
「No, it’s a platform where it can lie its body on. If it doesn’t use its legs, it will heal on its own.」
I see.
There’s no dicine?
「There are dicines for joint pain but if you use them on bees, it will be dangerous given the high dicinal effect. It might take so ti but I think the best cure is to keep it from using its legs.」
I see.
I guess we have no choice.
Let’s take this platform.
Hnn?
Spiderling….
There was a spiderling that had just molted in the dicine cabinet and it had a cool pattern on its back.
I think it is called curse spider elite or sothing.
A few of them are born every year and work in various places….you can take care of the bee’s joint pain?
Can you use healing magic?
Is that so?
Then, please take care of it….what’s the matter, Loo?
「If it’s just using magic, I’ll do it.」
No, Loo still needs to do so things to prepare for winter, right?
「If it’s just using magic, I’ll do it.」
Ah…..
As a result, , Loo, and the curse spider elite went back to the bee.
Well, it’s not a bad thing if you think that there will be a second opinion on the spot, right?
Anyway, it was who prepared a draw lots to decide who will cure it first.

About 30 of the newly arrived angels were praying around the world tree.
I heard that the world tree is very important for the angels.
Ah, so of them got too close to the tree and were attacked by the giant silkworks that live in the tree.
Wait wait.
Both sides, don’t get too excited.
Don’t fight with each other.
Silkworms.
Stop using string shot to the tied-up angel on the ground.
Well, I guess they would really be shocked if soone tried to rub her cheek on the world tree while looking ecstatic.
Angel, you have to calm down.
Take a deep breath.
Yeah, slowly.
The silkworms let the angel they caught go.
Yeah, I’ll take care of it.
「Village chief, please let us take care of the world tree!」
Don’t be too excited, don’t be too excited.
And how are you planning to take care of it?
Water it?
「We will surround the world tree and pray and dance around it every day.」
…….
「We will surround the world tree and pray and dance around it every day.」
I heard you the first ti.
I just didn’t get it.
Ehto….
In any case, watch over the world tree peacefully.
Praying and dancing around it is a nuisance to both the world tree and the silkworms.
「That can’t be!」
No, it can be.
What’s this?
Why are these angels so enthusiastic?
I heard that they cherished the world tree but I never thought it would be this much.
Tier, Gran Maria, and the others were not like this.
Kierbit, Malbit, and the others are not like this too.
?
That ans only these few of them, right?
Gran Maria, who got here before I knew it, nodded.
「It’s because of the religion of the angels.」
I see.
Then, it would offend others if we leave them alone.
However, it would be dangerous if we prohibit them.
Even so, leaving them to pray and dance around it is a nuisance.
…..
Alright, I’ve decided.
Let’s give these angels the important job of taking care of the world tree.
「Job….is it?」
Yeah.
I don’t think it’s a bad idea.
I led the angels to the flower garden north of the village…..we stopped at the world tree field.
The world trees here are growing slowly and have only grown as little bigger saplings.
However, there are a lot of them.
I’ll have them take care of this place.
So far, it was the beastgirls who have been taking care of this field with the kuros and spiderlings guarding it.
However, taking care of the world trees is so unpopular because it requires a little work and they attract beneficial insects but no pests.
Since they are believers of the world tree, they should be very happy to take care of them.
Am I a genius or what!
…..hnn?
Areh?
Why are these angels not responding?
And why does it look like the light in their eyes disappeared?
What’s wrong?
I asked Gran Maria who ca here with us for an explanation.
「Ehto, let’s put it this way, they thought there was only one god but then, they found out that the god has a lot of siblings….I think that’s what they feel now.」
I see.
I don’t understand.
「Then, leave it to .」
Gran Maria said that and clapped her hands.
「Everyone, please choose the world tree you want to take care of. It’s on a first co first serve basis desu. There are many world trees here but they are still fewer than you.」
When Gran Maria said it was first co first served, the light in the eyes of the unresponsive angels returned…..
Around the ti Gran Maria said the trees were fewer than they were, they started running.
Ehto, please don’t hit each other.
You are before the world trees.
Don’t draw lines on the field and claim it as your territory.
Na tags are fine.
It’s fine to put na tags on the world tree.
And just to remind you, it’s fine even if there are more than one person to take care of one world tree.
Talk it out with each other and decide.
Please take care of all the trees.
On top of that, take care of the world tree you are in charge of.
Don’t forget that.
What are you doing?
Don’t fight over which one is bigger or has more leaves.
And don’t make faces as if you don’t understand what I’m saying.

「What an outstanding move. Dividing the believers and making them fight and beat each other.」
No, why are you praising like that? That’s not what I ant to do, Gran Maria.
I don’t care about religion or what anyone believes in as long as it doesn’t cause trouble.
Anything is fine as long as you don’t cause trouble to anyone.
「That’s a Korin Religion verse. Amazing.」
Yeah.
Well, this place is far enough from the village that they probably won’t cause anyone trouble even if they pray or dance around.
However, since we’ve given jobs to 30 angels without permission, I guess I need to apologize to Malbit.
「There’s no need to apologize though I guess we must report it.」
Really?
「Yeah. And I’ll have them guard the village as well. Even though they have to take care of a bunch of world trees, it doesn’t an they don’t have ti to do anything else, right?」
…..right.
I’ll be looking forward to working with them.
