Chapter 781 – Spiderling’s Preparation

Zabuton and her spiderlings will not participate in the outside parade.

This is because Zabuton firmly insisted on not participating.

She said that if objects of fear like them went out, only misfortune awaits.

Well, it’s true that Zabuton and the others are feared in the Demon King’s Kingdom.

Even though they are so cute.

However, since Zabuton says so, it can’t be helped.

Or so I thought but around half of the spiderlings resisted.

They marched before Zabuton and thrashed their legs, appealing to participate.

Cute.

Zabuton was troubled by that.

However, she did not change her mind.

No means no.

That’s Zabuton for you.

However, it seems like Zabuton is also weak on her children.

She tacitly agreed to accompany the parade participants but in hiding saying that what’s important was to watch over the costumes.

In other words, they are allowed to participate in the parade as long as they remain in the carriages and won’t be seen by others.

The spiderlings were delighted and after thanking Zabuton, they began making something.

What’s that?

A big….spider costume?

It is deformed and adorable but its size is bigger than Zabuton.

It doesn’t look like Zabuton but a big Makura.

Inside the stuff arachnid are boards that keep its shape.

You’re going to get inside it and join the parade?

Ah, you can move its legs dexterously.

A mechanism to manipulate the legs is built in?

Amazing.

However, is that okay?

It seems like there are a thousand of you there…..

Won’t the ones in the bottom be crushed?

Make sure you go in with plenty of room to spare.

Right, half of your current number.

Don’t stuff yourself too tightly.

Just make a few more stuffed costumes.

And don’t make them move.

It’s not strange if stuffed animals move but what if a child or someone comes close to check?

We have gone through a lot of trouble to convince Zabuton.

Let’s make sure no one will see you.

I’m glad you understand.

Let’s put the stuffed arachnid on a carriage.

We’ll need a carriage for each of them but I’m sure there are a good number of uncovered carriages owned by Village Five…..

I’ll ask Youko so we can borrow one.

Yeah, I’ll take care of it.

I’m also the village chief of Village Five after all.

Night.

I asked Youko to secure a roofless carriage.

Eh?

What?

Is something wrong?

「N-not really but it seems like village chief is unaware of the situation in Village Five…..」

Well, I’ve been working in the field for quite a while.

What’s going on in Village Five?

「Ah, there will be participants from Village Five in the outside parade.」

That’s right.

I’m going to participate as the village chief of Village Five and it wouldn’t look good if all the participants came from Big Tree Village.

I’m sorry but I left choosing the participants from Village Five all to Youko.

It seems like Youko left it up to the village council.

「That’s right. It has been decided that there will only be 50 participants coming from Village Five and I left it all for the council to decide.」

50 participants.

That’s a reasonable number.

「The village council returned to me saying they wanted 2000 or at least 500 participants.」

……

「And as expected, I also thought that that many participants is too much so I checked with the demon king…… He said it would be no problem even if there will be 2000 additional participants. Hence, the carriages with and without roofs are very difficult to secure.」

I didn’t know that happened.

「I know right. However, though I said there will be 2000 participants, there will probably be more. The spectators will want to move with us.」

Yeah, I can see that happening.

「So, the expectation that the parade would be over in half a day was dropped. It is expected to last for at least two days.」

Eh?

We’re going to use the teleportation gate so it wouldn’t be that far of a parade, right?

Even if there were more people, the distance wouldn’t change, would it?

「If they are all going to be obedient and follow the instructions, yes…. However, they are in a festive mood. There will be drinking too. I’m not so optimistic as to think that the transition would be smooth.」

When you put it that way, I guess it is.

Not everyone can use the teleportation gate at the same time.

It will take time.

Hmmm?

If it takes more than two days, don’t we have to prepare food for the participants?

「We are already working on the arrangements. Food and drink will not be a problem. We are already building temporary washrooms….」

Is there a problem?

「The stalls for the parade spectators. They are taking too much space and it’s making the security forces panic.」

Right……

「Village chief doesn’t have to mind it as usual. However, afterwards, I would like you to give the security forces a few words of appreciation.」

Understood.

………

The carriage procurement failed to be secured.

I contacted the Goroun Company with the faintest hope but to no avail.

It seems like even Shashaato City is having a hard time securing carriages for the parade.

Michael-san tried to get the Goroun Company send us a carriage to use for the parade but we decided not to do so.

We only wanted to borrow one if there were any left over and we won’t feel comfortable borrowing one that they were planning to use.

Instead, he gave us some wheels and axles of the carriage.

The wheels and axles of a carriage are consumable items.

Therefore, there are more wheels and axles available than there are carriages.

We managed to secure them.

With wheels and axles, all that was left was the body.

Even I could manage to make a body of a roofless carriage.

After all, the purpose is to put a stuffed animal on it so a cart with eight wheels would suffice.

Well, the work will be done after I’m done with my field work.

If the mountain elves have finished their work, we can get their help.

They are making carriages there too, right…..

Ah, no, if the mountain elves get involved, they’ll convert it to something magical.

It might be better to do it alone.

Yeah, let’s do that.

Village Chief: I’ll do my best on my own.

Spiderlings: We will help you

Village Chief: You guys……thanks

Zabuton: ……(I want to help but I’m very busy with the costumes)

Village Chief: I’ll do my best on my own.

Mountain Elves: Is our credibility collapsing?

Civil Servant Girls: How many carriages have you combined?

Mountain Elves: Around seven

Civil Servant Girls: Is that so? But your work is yet to be completed, right?

Mountain Elves: Yes, we are trying to make it transform into a humanoid form…..and it should walk using two legs.

Civil Servant Girls: ……(We don’t know what they mean by making carriages walk on two legs but we definitely won’t ride it)
