Author’s note:
I went through various things with Hello Work and government offices. Feels tired after two hour briefing sessions _(；_ _)_
____________________________________________________________________________
Japan. In a certain urban region’s room of a mansion.
The goddess gripped her mobile device as a growling overseer cat stared at her.
“Unuooooooo...at least let me bring this...”
“I believe there will be no reception even if you bring it though?”
“Then won’t it mean I can’t participate in events and raid battles at all!! Damnit! What era is it!!”
“It's the modern era. From this world’s perspective that side is between the middle ages and modern times, I suppose”
Towards the goddess who tried to express her hope, the observer easily shoved the reality of things to her.
“Kuoooohhhhh do you understand...the pain of not being able to go online in real time?!”
“I don’t know or rather I think it’s over the moment I understand that pain”
Navi coldly dismissed Fiona’s full-blown desires and dissatisfaction. Midway, the goddess raised her voice as if she noticed something.
“...eh? By the way Navi, when you were at that side, it seemed like you were still able to exchange conversation with [anchor]”
“In my case, I used the PC’s voice input feature and transmitted images as sound so there is no issue even if it’s in a different world. Even videos can be viewed as long as it’s not too long---”
“Ooo~, Navi is brilliant as expected”
“I am, after all, Alfrieda-sama’s servant, so that much is of course. Either way, I believe Fiona-sama is at least capable of the same thing… Did you not learn it during your training to be a God?”
“It’s the basics of the basics, you know! Do you think I would remember that?”
“It’s nothing to boast about. Anyway, let’s start the main story now”
|■ Lucorua Kingdom. Fudgy’s house|
“Well then Fiona-sama, we will take our leave”
“We’ll return before evening. We will be troubling Fiona-sama to hold the fort though...”
“Mmn~...but what should I do during that period”
“If yuu are that free, why don’t yuu talk to your parents who are in heaven about the future course of action? If it’s both of them, they have a lot of experiences after all...”
“A-a lot of experiences...drolls”
“(If you say a single word about a lot of experiences for night activities, I will have you stay here for another month okay?)”
“(O-okay...hah, that was dangerous. It’s fine, it’s fine, I will do my best, I won’t lose)”
“?? What’s wrong?”
“N-nothing. Anyway, please be careful on your way”
“Anyway please take care of the house in our stead”
Just like during the morning, only Fiona was left after sending the three of them off.
“Mn~...but still, what should I do? This is the situation where nothing has happened yet. I guess I should consult with Papa for now”
Once she was inside her assigned bedroom in the house, she decided to contact her father, Unisis.
“...hm? Is this Fiona? Aren’t you in that world, that Lucorua Kingdom?”
“That’s right, but unlike when I made Alp my apostle, this time I can’t see the goal”
“Well, this time’s case is different from Alp-kun’s. You should be in the information gathering stage currently, right? And then, well… let’s say you are preparing for any situation, you can perhaps appropriate your knowledge.”
“Eh? B-but Papa. I remember there are several restrictions in bringing otherworld’s items”
“Putting aside bringing items directly, if you can use technology and tools from that side, it should not be a problem. Papa will tell you how, so go and try make something”
“Un! I’ll try, papa!”
--- 1 hour later ---
|■ Fudgy’s house. Backyard|
“Hahh”
The goddess took a breather in the backyard after finishing her work.
“What do you think, papa?”
“Hmm, it’s a wonderful panzerfaust”
A long tubular modern weapon was erected there as if to show off its appearance.
“With this it doesn’t matter what kind of army comes, all I need is one shot! ---As if!! What and how did it come to this?!”
“P-papa intended to tell you about preserving food for a long time and the method to process it but...”
Amidst the confused communication between the father and daughter, a voice interrupted them.
“Gosh, what are the two of you doing?”
“Ah, mama”
“But to think you can make such a weapon with what you have. As expected of War God(papa)’s daughter, Fiona-chan”
“But no matter how you think about it, it’s not something an amateur can make with the technology level over there though”
“I don’t want our bond as parents and child to be reconfirmed over this...”
The mother advised the father-daughter who were still bewildered in front of the finished product.
“Fiona-chan, it’s no good to keep thinking about the difficult stuff. It’s better to think simply for this kind of thing”
“Think simple, you say, like what?”
“You are goddess of fruits and fruit trees after all--- Even if it’s called an industrial country that doesn’t mean that there is not a single tree growing there, right? Go and try to use your power in your own way.”
In response to that word, Fiona once again looked at the backyard. She confirmed that there was a reasonable number of vegetation growing around.
“They don’t look edible though, I wonder if it will work out?”
“It’s alright, trust yourself. You are papa’s and mama’s daughter after all”
“U-un! I will give it a try!”
--- Few hours later ---
|■ Fudgy’s house|
As the sun began to set, the three people who went out to gather information returned.
There, Fudgy and Mimosa saw their familiar hou---Navi struggled to understand the house that was different from when they left this afternoon.
“That god-for-nothing must have done something agein”
“God-for-nothing?! A-anyway, is this Fiona-sama’s doing?!”
The vegetation in the backyard that should not be visible from the front had come into the view from that one-story house’s roof.
Which was more than enough to make them aware that the situation was abnormal---
“R-regardless, let’s enter first!”
|■ Fudgy’s house. Backyard|
“Earth(that side)’s bananas, and oranges...I guess what’s buried there is pineapple”
“Can these actually be consumed?”
Mimosa, bewildered by the sight of fruits she had never seen, questioned.
“I-it’s fine. I can guarantee because it’s my area of expertise”
“Uhm, b-but...why did you do such a thing?”
“I-I was wondering if there’s anything that I could do, so...ahaha”
“Well, let’s eet these later. It’s just right since it’s dinner time as well---”
“Then we shall carry few of them”
After Fudgy and Mimosa had taken the fruits with them, Navi looked alternatively between the panzerfaust hidden in the bushes and the face of Goddess Fiona.
“(The problem is how to dispose of this rocket launcher-like something, I suppose)”
“(I-I’ve hidden it deep inside the bushes, so I believe it will be alright?)”
“(There’s no other choice but that right now...I guess it can’t be helped. Please keep an eye on it while we stay here)”
|■ Fudgy’s house. Dining room|
30 minutes later, the four of them reached their own seats to eat dinner.
“Bananas and oranges can be eaten like this, right? I already did some tasting though, it’s sweet and delicious!”
“This pineapple thingy is a little difficult to cook, but it’s sour and delicious too. Maybe it can be used as a secret ingredient in cooking. Can’t expect anything less than this from Goddess of Fruit Trees”
“W-well, even like this, I’m the Goddess of Fruit Trees after all!”
“But it is fortunate that it’s at this time. Since there are not many people now… I think it didn’t attract much attention”
“?? There are less people...is it?”
“Mm, Lucorua is a country of craftsmen. Many people work away from home at this time”
“Working away from home, where to?”
Fiona’s question made Fudgy’s face darken and Mimosa replied as if in his stead.
“---it’s the coal mine. There are craftsmen who go to the coal mine to secure themselves the materials and resources”
“...does that story have anything to do with Fudgy’s gloomy face?”
“Sharp as usual, Navi-sama. That’s right---but let’s enjoy the food for now. I’ll talk about it later”
