「I showed you something embarrassing….」

「No no, Chicken is doing great. It’s hard when your educator is so strict.」

「I’ve been trained by others aside from Lenard-san but they are all different experiences….」

「Don’t mind it too much. Given your experience of setting up this organization from scratch with Pickles and the others, you’ll soon overtake those oldies.」

「Yeah, thank you very much」

「So, how is it going?」

「Profits were good last month. Depending on the building plans for the Schenker Town, we should be able to finish paying off the debt on the theater site in less than a year.」

「That’s great.」

As expected, if you are good at following the flow of national policy, you’re going to make a ton of money.

 However, in terms of profit, it’s about the same as my salary as an associate professor.

I was surprised when I received my first salary. When you reach a certain level as a noble, the government’s pay will suddenly increase.

I get the same amount of money just for doing research in my laboratory as I earn with all the hard work and effort I put in.

It was the summer of my 16 years of living here when I finally understood the reason why so many people are half smiling and called what I’m doing a “miserable way to earn money”.

That said, it is still a good amount of money for a side job after making it this far!

I’m not going to stop.

「We haven’t received any complaint from the house rented for men. There has been some damage such as a wall breaking due to a brawl.」

「Well, I guess men are rough around the edges. If this goes on, we may have to reassign them.」

「For the time being, the elderly suggested to me to create a “punishment unit”….」

「Punishment? Ah, you mean like, giving difficult jobs to those who don’t listen? That sounds good.」

「I’ll do it right away.」

This time, we’ve added a lot of people at once so there’s bound to be a problem or two.

Even so, a difficult job….

How about digging a hole and let them fill it back…..no, that’s too unproductive.

「Ah, how about building a factory with no drinking, no smoking, simple meals, and no nightlife allowed and putting them all together there? It’ll be like a poorhouse and they’ll get sick of it so fast that they’ll behave once they get out.」

「We can’t have undisciplined people doing some dangerous job so I think it’s  a good idea.」

Picking at the elbow of her shiny, maroon-colored set up, Chicken wrote down something on a notepad on her desk.

I have never seen this girl wearing the same clothes lately. I wonder if she has enough money.

「Is Chicken having some problems lately?」

「Ah, no, nothing in particular……it’s just hot at night.」

「Do you work at night?」

Chicken smiled and said that these days, she was able to get a good night’s sleep.

The dark circles under her eyes seem to have disappeared but let’s cast a healing spell to be sure.

「I buy fabric and make my own clothes. However, I’m having trouble making progress when it’s this hot.」

「Whoah, you can make your own clothes?」

「I can’t make things that can be worn outside yet but I made things like nightwear.」

「I see」

After a few more casual talks, I treated those who had caught summer cold or were injured and then headed to the kitchen where I had some business to attend to.

The kitchen smelled so good that I could smell it from the outside and my stomach growled as I hadn’t eaten since this morning because I had been so engrossed with my twins.

「We’ve been waiting for you. We are confident in today’s menu〜」

「Oh, I’m looking forward to it.」

I entered the kitchen and was greeted by the head chef, the pink haired Seele and her assistant, the green haired Hunt.

There were dishes lined up on the table and good smells were wafting from them.

Of course, they are not ordinary dishes. They are made with soy sauce and miso paste that the centaur Pickles brought back from the north the other day.

Even with seasonings from my hometown, I can’t cook.
