Chapter 9: Making paper seems simple

I’ve been preparing for a while for this orphanage to have a stable income. While we do have temporary income, having a stable income guaranteed is important.

The first piece of the paper has finally come to surface, it’s the paper which I have been making for the past 1 week is complete.

“Amazing! It’s just as Master said, the paper from the plant’s stalk have been completed!”

“This may be an incredible thing, to the point where it may change the production structure of it.”

“Even if it’s a technology from your world, it’s spectacular that could be applied so soon.”

“It’s no big deal.”

I denied while shaking my head.

“Haa, Master is too humble. You need to properly understand how incredible this is!”

“That’s right! No matter how you look at it, the page is cleaner than the parchment and it’s low priced aswell, in certain words this is revolutionary!”

“That’s right. This will be widespread in the common people and there is a possibility that it will change life completely.”

“You’re exaggerating it alot, now let’s continue in making commodities.”

At that, the girls went “You!” and swelled their cheeks. I left them as they were and rustling I drew pictures and letters on the pictures. I’m making an picture book.

For the time being I made 1 page and I showed it to the girls and asking them “How is it?” . The letters and language are from this world and you can use them immedatiely after being summoned.

“This is?”

“Pictures? Is this what Master drew?”

“Fuwah, this is amazing the features were caught properly.”

“It’s no big deal, it’s bad right?”

I think that I don’t have any artistic sense.

“That’s not true at all! It’s different from all the pictures I’ve seen, this is one that gets to the feeling great.”

“That’s right. Despite having a deformation I can understand what is drawn and strangely it feels familiar. This is amazing and I know that it is an elf.”

“Making paper is alone amazing but to think Masatsugu-sama has talent even in artistry.”

“This is no big deal. This is just 1 page, but really it spans over many pages so that you can read. For example let me add one more page, here the person on the first page who opens the door on the next page he will be crushed by the baggage overflowing from the door and like this the story is shown. For the missing parts you insert explanation notes, interesting right?”

When I finished my explanation the girls faces a surprised expression has surfaced.

“This is too amazing… In the other world this may not be an incredible thing, but in this one this may not be reproduced so well.”

“Besides the letters and the pictures are well done. This will sell well-enough. It’s not inferior even compared to worker who’ve done it for several decades in that profession.”

“Yeah, really. It will not sell only in this country but in the others aswell”

Ah, but Lucia was making a anxious face.

“I wonder what kind of story should we write? I am not particularly good at thinking up such things.”

“Me aswell, but I do understand that it must be amusing to read it.”

“I’m bad at using my head too. Masatsugu-san, what shall we do?”

With worried experessions they looked at me.

“It’s not difficult. It’s fine writing familiar stories. For example, a hero defeating monsters and the Demon Lord is fine aswell.”

“I see, there was no need to fuss around! As expected, Master. It’s much easier for the world to accept familiar story.”

“It’s as Masatsugu-sama says, there are many stories like that.”

“Our focus is totally different. If you can copy existing stories then you’ll make the picture book almost effortless.”

“It wasn’t a big deal. Now nothing will happen if we talk forever. Let’s start making picture books already.”

““Yes!””

I did not say that it would still be difficult, because there is a problem of how to enter into the market. When it comes at this level it would be cruel to let them think about it. It has passed the scope of consultation. This is a problem that I need to think about myself. It’s unfair but it must be done, there is no other choice. I have a strategy about it, I’m going to see.

This is how we started making picture books so that we will have an sustainable income for the orphanage.

Several days, there was a crowd outside of the store. It was a retail store where were selling the 100 picture books that we made.We entrusted the sales to a nearby shop with little bit of money.

We were wondering how the sales were going so we watched from the 2nd floor of an inn.

The pictures book were a bit over 1000 giel but when the first person took one in hands by curiousity they talked loudly which made others rush in aswell.

“Amazing! It’s as Master has said it’s helluva popular.”

“To think there would such a big crowd on the first day, Masatsugu-sama knew about it since the beginning.”

“It’s like Future foresight. It’s really amazing.”

“No, becoming this popular is just as I expected from the start. There is no particular need to be surprised, I’m more intersted in what happens after this.”

On my words the girls had surprised expressions on their faces.

“There’s still more after this? What in the world could it be?”

“Despite being such a huge hit, what Masatsugu-sama is talking about still hasn’t started?”

“Rather, this success feels like it was natural for Masatsugu-sama. Haa, I wonder what in the world Masatsugu-sama views through his eyes. Please teach me.”

“What’ll happen after this is a secret. Look forward about it in the future. Now that we’ve come to understand the sale, we have free time for the day. Everyone you are free to do as you like but come back at night to the orphanage.”

With that I declared a break-up of the convo here and the girls replied with “Yes! Understood!”. Yet somehow they were refusing to seperate from me.

“No, do as you like…”

“Yes yes, I am doing as I like.”

“I am fine as long as am with Masatsugu-sama.”

“Shii also wants to relax with Masatsugu-san.”

Sigh, them depending on me so much isn’t good.

“Don’t be depending too much on me, alright? You might have affection for me as a guy for now, but in the future you will probably meet other guys and fall in love.”

They took a bit of distance when I said that.

“That will not happen! As long as I’m with Master I’m fine! The rest of the people don’t matter!”

“I’m same aswell! I haven’t thought about anybody else other than Masatsugu-sama!”

“Shii also wants to be with you forever.”

Yup, they retorted back energetically. Sigh, there’s nothing much to be done after they said it like that. Truly troublesome.

“I see… Well, you are free to do as you please. I’ll be going to shop for a bit.”

“I’ll come too!”

“I, I’m coming aswell”

“Shii is coming too”

Sigh, I cannot become somehow. I have to consider various stuff too. Either way, this is how we set out for the town.
