<h4>Chapter 217 – A Woman of Vige One, Pa</h4>


    My name is Pa.


    It is the name I gave myself and I really like it.


    My real name?


    It doesn’t matter.


    I am Pa.


    A woman who lived in the backstreet.


    Living in the backstreet of the city was hard.


    There are only a few fun memories.


    Most of the fun memories are rted to Marcos.


    Marcos is a boy I met with age simr to mine.


    However, he is my senpai when ites to life in the backstreet.


    He’s my husband now.


    Just thinking of not being able to meet him makes me shiver.


    The turning point of my and Marcos’ life is meeting Fushu-sama.


    Because we heard rumors about her kidnapping children, we thought that we were done for that time.


    However, I find temporary sce with the people they gathered.


    One of them is Jack, a leader in the backstreet.


    Marcos can be relied on but Jack is more reliable.


    If he didn’t fall in love with Morte, I would have made him mine.


    Fushu-sama gathers us to talk about migrating.


    It is possible to obtain a house of your own.


    But that’s too good to be true.


    I never thought that they’ll treat us like stupid fools.


    However, can a great person of Korin religion lie?


    I’m anxious. As for everyone else….yeah, they’re anxious too.


    Good.


    However, we still agreed to Fushu-sama’s suggestion.


    We couldn’t go against it since the proposal is too attractive.


    The most attractive thing is that we will be taught of various things first before migrating.


    Moreover, it’s for free.


    We will be taught on how to read and write characters, calcte, and etiquette.


    Even if the migration is a lie, what we learn is already ours.


    If I can calcte, it will be easy for me to find a ce to work in.


    Moreover, if I can read and write characters, I can also expect to receive wage.


    As for etiquette….though I don’t think I need it, it is not umon to be cut down by a noble aftermitting rudeness.


    If I learn it, there won’t be any loss.


    Though it was hard and busy, it was a fulfilling half year.


    The story about migration is true.


    There was a ce called Vige One, a little away from Big Tree Vige, where we got our house and we were given jobs.


    There was enough food too.


    And all for it just for the hope of us being permanent residents.


    Though the surrounding environment is scary, we are well protected.


    If youpare this ce to the backstreet, this is heaven.


    For the jobs we were given with….


    We’repletely useless.


    However, we were neither scolded nor kicked out.


    Vige chief….ah, vige chief is the vige chief of Big Tree Vige.


    TN: just like everyone else, she thought Hiraku’s name is vige chief.


    There is no vige chief in Vige One, only a person who is called caretaker.


    Vige chief told us that he wants us to find the job suitable for us so there’s no hurry.


    Thank you vige chief.


    Everyone else has the same reaction as me, we nodded with all our might.


    We will do our best for vige chief.


    And we gradually got used to living in the vige.


    Farming, paper making, oil squeezing, sugar squeezing, salt making.


    Little by little, we increased the things we can do.


    When we were entrusted with pigs, I was a little worried if we can raise them properly but everyone did their best.


    Maa, the men were a little too emotional….


    Right right.


    The men.


    When we first came to Vige One, we can’t enter the forest but now, we can.


    Jack even defeated a fanged rabbit alone.


    He’s really amazing.


    Marcos is working hard but it’s still impossible for him.


    Don’t overdo it.


    Don’t imitate something dangerous.


    Look, even Kricky says you must be careful.


    Kricky is one of the dogs called inferno wolf who protects the vige…..it is not a wolf.


    I named it.


    I was scared at first but I know that it’s defending the vige and even bringing the prey it hunted from the forest here.


    I wanted to thank it but I realized I don’t know its name.


    When I asked vige chief, he pointed at a group of inferno wolves.


    Yup, it is impossible to name them all.


    In that case, I’ll name it.


    Vige chief permitted me to do so and Kricky was pleased.


    Kricky sometimes goes to other viges so I can’t see it but when ites to Vige One, ites to say hello.


    We have that kind of rtionship with the inferno wolves.


    Marcos doesn’t go against what it says….but how about listening more to your wife?


    A year has passed since we migrated.


    Winter is cold but we prepared enough firewood so we’re okay.


    From time to time, patroling from Big Tree Vige and other vigese so we’re not worried about food.


    Of course, we’re not just staying in our house to y.


    We made a lot of small items from bamboo.


    I can boast the baskets I made.


    It is light and strong.


    I also worked hard on the design.


    The best things we made are presented to vige chief in Big Tree Vige.


    After nting seeds at the beginning of the year, we continue to live our daily lives. Soon, it will be summer.


    Right right.


    Have you ever seen a castle floating in the sky?


    It’s really amazing.


    For such a big thing to fly.


    I’m surprised when with what vige chief said about the castle.


    He said that you will be able to know the season with the location of the castle.


    It will make a full rotation from Big Tree Vige in a year. It was at north during winter and west during spring.


    It is so close to the south now which means summer is near.


    At that time, vige chief spoke to Vige One’s migrants.


    「Shashaato City….is it?」


    I have never heard of it.


    However, it seems to be a bigmercial city in the demon king’s kingdom and it is also a port.


    The fish we eat are purchased there.


    Heh.


    ording to vige chief, he was invited to open up a shop in Shashaato City.


    Vige chief wants to take over but everybody says he can’t leave.


    Therefore, he wants to hear from us.


    It is probably because we can read and write, calcte, and knows etiquette.


    I never had a chance to show it but now I have.


    And Fushu-sama.


    Thank you very much.


    Since vige chief is the one requesting it, I’ll do it with the best of my effort!


    Need to leave Vige One for a while?


    I do not mind.


    Marcos is fine with it too.


    Before we do, the others are already raising their hands.


    Everyone feels the same.


    I won’t lose.


    There is no way for us to go in arge group so it will only be a couple.


    Jack wanted to go too but he was automatically removed from the candidates because he’s the leader of Vige One’s migrants.


    Nine remaining groups.


    I wished for the goddess of luck to smile at me.


    Thank you, goddess of luck.


    If this shop is sessful, I will likely receive a reward medal and I’ll use it to make a statue of you.


    Now.


    Since we have to move to Shashaato City, we prepared our stuff….


    We don’t have much stuff.


    I told Kricky that we’ll go away for a while….


    We said goodbye to the rest of the people in Vige One.


    It’s okay.


    I and Marcos will move to Big Tree Vige first.


    We studied there for a month in order to prepare for the opening.


    Vige chief teaches us directly despite his busy schedule.


    I’ll do my best.


    The shop that vige chief wants to open is a restaurant.


    A shop that only has one dish, nothing elseplicated.


    Since it hase to this, then the food that will be sold is the most important point.


    Can I even make it?


    It was okay.


    After we migrated to Vige One, we made that dish once a week.


    Indeed.


    As expected of vige chief.


    That dish will surely get popr.


    ……


    Areh?


    Then, what are we going to learn now?


    How to hire people?


    Customer service?


    Hygiene?


    Taxputation?


    …….


    My head is full and I find it hard to remember it all.


    As for Marcos…..yeah, hang in there.


    Ah, we went to the castle in the sky via a balloon while we were studying because vige chief rmended us to do some recreational work.


    No, we didn’t y.


    But it was fun.


    It was my first time flying in the sky and it feels good….


    Though it is slightly cold.


    I’ll wear thick clothes next time.


    After a month of studying, we left for Shashaato City.


    An important person from the demon king’s kingdom will teleport us using magic.


    I knew that vige chief is amazing but this is way too amazing.


    Vige chief’s shop.


    I will absolutely make it a sess!


    Marcos feels the same.


    He has a good smile.


    As expected of my husband.


    「Ano, vige chief? This is?」


    「The shop’s capital. It is embarrassing since its not much.」


    「You said that …..but」


    First of all, thank you for trusting us with this much money.


    Next of all…..


    The bag of gold coin, Marcos can’t even lift it.


    Are the prices in Shashaato City much higher than expected?


    In addition, arge amount of crops are prepared on a cart.


    They are ingredients for the shop but…..


    Can we even cook them all?


    No no no.


    I shouldn’t show weakness.


    Let’s cook everything.


    The dish is curry.


    Fufufu.


    There’s no one that can’t be captivated by that dish.
