Reincarnated as a Farmer Gamer: Rising to the Top with the Evolution of the Weakest Job that Only I Know About!? - 64.2

The young lady sighed and began speaking to the villagers.

Now, for the next thing.

“Diana, so please continue the support as usual. Actually, since you’ve been holding back not to let it be known, feel free to go all out.”

“Hehe. So you figured that out too. I thought you’d say that, so look!”

From the direction Diana pointed, numerous wagons appeared.

“Oh! As expected of Diana! Please handle the supplies!”

“Leave it to me!”

With Diana seen off, I was left alone with Lisa.

From a short distance away, the children looked at us anxiously.

Even if the adults knew what was happening, it must be difficult for the children to understand what was going on.

“Lisa, I have a favor. Could you distribute sweets to the children? The adults are fine.”

“…Will this help Beryl?”

“Of course. The children are the future of the territory. Neglecting them would be foolish.”

“Understood. I’ll distribute the sweets I got earlier.”

“Thanks!”

Lisa headed to the children and began handing out the sweets.

At first, the children were wary, but sweets have great power. Also, although Lisa has a somewhat unapproachable aura, she isn’t scary once you get close, and with her cuteness, she quickly became popular.

Now, left alone, I observed everyone’s actions and assessed the current state of the territory.

As it stands, calling this place a town or village is difficult. It’s barely a settlement.

“Pochi. Let’s procure some meat.”

“Gaf!”

Riding on Pochi’s back, I changed the skill to 【Size Marionette】 and started hunting magical beasts in the forest using the technique 【Double Telekinesis Size】.

There were many magical beasts in the area due to the low human population. Although the beasts weren’t very strong due to the proximity to the capital, they might be strong enough for them.

By the way, in the game, magical beasts respawned periodically after being defeated, but I wonder how they respawn in this world?

Even if we were to build a village here, with so many magical beasts around, it would be difficult to gather resources freely. I’ll have to ask Lady Evans about it in detail next time.

That day, I focused on gathering meat and giving it all to the villagers.

The villagers shed tears and expressed their gratitude repeatedly for the large amount of support and food they had never received before.

Well, if I build up such favors, they’ll work hard as villagers, and when the settlement grows from a village to a town, things will proceed smoothly.

From that day on, we visited the territory every day and did our best in whatever we could.

Diana transported supplies daily and seemed to have used up all the savings she had accumulated. I hope to repay her with interest when the time comes.

Lisa became very popular with the children, and she seemed quite pleased with being called “Sister Lisa!” It appears Lisa can interact and converse with the pure children without any issues. This might be thanks to her getting along with the young lady and Diana.

As for the young lady, despite her rather chaotic political methods, it somehow suited her. Just having a leader like her at the front of the group seemed to boost everyone’s morale.

As for me, I continued hunting every day, securing more food than we could consume.

◆

A week passed, and the holiday arrived.

“Young lady, Diana, Lisa. Please take care of the settlement.”

““Leave it to us!””

“Beryl, make sure to bring Rin. It’s very inconvenient without a maid!”

“Yes. I’ll take care of it.”

The young lady has been mentioning Rin’s name every morning and night lately. It must mean they’ve become quite close.

I mounted Pochi and set off towards Count Emblam’s residence, located east of the capital, to settle things once and for all.
