Its been a while, Yuri-dono.
When I went up to Amaterasus house, I found a man there.
He was a tall, slender man with white skin. Of course, Yuri already knew who it was.
Good day, Tsukuyomi. Is there any inconvenience in your life here?
No, so far we have been living comfortably.
Im glad to hear that. If there is anything you want to do, just let know.
Tsukuyomi is the brother of Amaterasu.
If Amaterasu is the god who rules the dayti, when the sun shines, Tsukuyomi is the god who rules the nightti, when the sun does not shine.
Like Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi is a great but gentle deity with a very powerful divine power.
Thank you very much. I have a favor to ask you, Yuri-dono.
Oh, what is it? Can you tell about it?
Can you please find a job? Im not dissatisfied with my life here, and its a lot of fun to watch the children of n boldly tackle the Labyrinth on the air. It is uncomfortable to do nothing when you have been given a high-class shrine, a place to live, and enough money to pay your bills
Everyone demands the sa thing from . You may have mistaken for a ddler or sothing.
Yuri chuckled and looked at Roselotte next to her. She smiled but lowered her eyebrows as if she was a little troubled.
We already have a good number of gods in this city, but only a few of them have regular jobs. You dont have to worry about it.
Well Every ti I see Sukunabikona, he makes fun of , asking if I enjoy eating without working and drinking without working
Oh, I see
Sukunabikona is the son of Kamimusuhi, and is a god of many powers.
So of these powers are related to hot springs and brewing, so Sukunabikona is in charge of the hot springs in the city, as well as the recently completed brewery with Konohanasakuya-hi and others who also have powers related to brewing.
Sukunabikona is a God who takes his assigned tasks very seriously. On the other hand, he has a bad boy personality and likes to make fun of others.
Apparently, Tsukuyomi cant stand to be insulted by him.
Id like Tsukuyomi to grow up a bit more, though.
Amaterasu, who had left her seat for a while, returned with a troubled look on her face.
On a tray in her hand, she carried four cups of hot water filled with steam.
She had prepared tea for everyone present.
Its a coarse tea, but here you go.
Thank you.
I took the teacup that Amaterasu offered and sipped it imdiately.
It was green tea.
Ive been drinking a lot of tea from this world lately. The taste of green tea, which I havent enjoyed in a long ti, feels like sothing Ive missed for a long ti.
This a strange tea. It is astringent, but not hard to drink.
This was probably the first ti Roselotte had ever tasted green tea.
The way she sipped it, again and again, little by little, suggests that she liked it.
Tsukuyomi. Since so of us have never t before, I think we should introduce ourselves first.
Ah, Im sorry about that. My na is Tsukuyomi, and together with my sister Amaterasu here, I have been invited from another world by Yuri-dono.
Im Roselotte Eldard. My na is Roserotte Eldard, and Im husbands well, Im Your Highness Yuris fourth concubine.
Oh, so youre one of Your Highness Yuris concubines. Well, welco to our ho.
I, too, apologize for the sudden intrusion.
When Tsukuyomi bowed deeply, Roserotte also responded by bowing deeply again and again.
She knows that the other side is God. I guess she just cant help but feel afraid of being bowed to.
Yuri. Id like to get a job too if I can.
? Amaterasu already entrusted with the leadership of the gods weve welcod to this land.
Thats true, but I have too much ti on my hands for that role alone. I would like a job that I can fulfill at the sa ti, and if possible, one that will be reasonably rewarding.
However, if I beco too busy, I wont have ti to go and check on the children at the orphanage where I am entrusted with the chickens. Please keep it moderate.
You have a lot of demands
Yuri couldnt help but chuckle at Amaterasus completely unreserved words.
But to be honest, its easier for Yuri to get along with soone who is so unreserved in expressing his or her needs.
How about we both play teachers, then?
Teacher?
Yes. Recently, the number of people who want to learn to read and write has been increasing rapidly in the country. Ive been having so trouble finding soone to act as a teacher.
I have no objection to the position itself. Both Tsukuyomi and I can only teach Japanese, you know.
But it wouldnt take Tsukuyomi or Amaterasu very long to learn the language of our world, would it?
You wont know that until you try it, but Thanks to Yuris preparation of a good substitute, my abilities and Tsukuyomis are much higher than they should be. It is true that with the current us, its easy to learn a language.
As a result of having prepared the highest grade of the divine body, the Yata no Kagami 10 , Amaterasus level has increased to 2520 and Tsukuyomis level to 2448.
At this level, they are not only physically strong but also intellectually. Learning one or two other languages would be a piece of cake for them.
Yuri-dono.
What is it, Tsukuyomi?
If we were to learn the language of this world and act as teachers. Where would we teach it?
Hmmm Perhaps we can set up so sort of academy in this city and have them teach us. Even though it is an academy, it will probably be a facility that specializes in teaching only reading and writing at first.
In the future, do you plan to teach other things as well?
Yes, I do. I would like to teach a certain amount of math.
Most of the people living in this world are only able to perform calculations that are in line with their living standards and are used for money transactions.
The only people who can do more than that are those who have stores and have been properly trained as rchants.
Since anyone can earn money by diving in the labyrinth, the poor are no longer seen at all in the Yuri Empire and its allies, and the cities are booming like never before.
In the midst of this, however, only rchants were able to take advantage of the economic boom to make more money.
This is because no one but rchants has the computing power to run a store by themselves. The business itself is an activity that anyone can do, but those who dont have the background cant take advantage of the business opportunities.
Yuri thinks that this is a bit of a waste.
If possible, there should be an educational institution that teaches not only reading and writing but also calculation, similar to the so-called Temple School of the Edo period.
(TN: (Terakoya) = Temple School.)
I see. If thats the case Yuri-dono.
What is it?
I think it might be a good idea to talk to Omoikane about this.
Oh, I see. Thats true.
Omoikane is the god of wisdom, and also a being that gives wisdom to others.
If we want to create an institution to teach wisdom to many people in the form of education. As Tsukuyomi suggested, he would be the first person we should consult.
If you dont mind, Id like to invite Omoikane to this house.
Well can I ask you a favor? Of course, if its not convenient for the other party, you dont have to force them to do so.
Yes. Hes not too far from ho, so Ill call him right away.
As soon as she had said this, Tsukuyomi walked quickly out of the room.
After watching him go, Amaterasu let out a sigh of dismay.
I cant help but notice how careless Tsukuyomi is.
Oh, its good that hes active.
Im not sure if thats sothing to praise. By the way, Omoikane is very grateful to Yuri for inviting him and his son. Im sure theyll help us.
Oh, thats very kind of him.
If we could get the help of the God of Wisdom, he would probably co up with a far better idea than Yuri had been able to ponder.
Perhaps it would be best to leave all the details of setting up and running an educational institution to him. Yuri thought quietly as she sipped her slightly cooled tea.
