When Lumina joined, we ran out of second-floor bedrooms.
There are still rooms on the first floor, so we could free up a storage room, but…
Since we’re at it, I decided to generate a new home for the third generation.
The first generation was the small house I made when it was just me and Senyuu, and the second generation is the house we’re currently using.
“Really? This house is already pretty spacious, isn’t it?”
Shoubu, who had just gotten out of the bath, said as she sat down.
“There aren’t enough single rooms, and I want to make everyone’s rooms a bit bigger since we’re doing it anyway.”
“Also, Master’s bedroom, I presume.”
The maid, Roa, opened her mouth as if to tell an important matter.
“Mm. I agree, but I feel a little sad.”
“Yeah. I have a lot of memories in this house.”
“Indeed, we’ve had a lot of things happen here…”
Thousand, Shion, and Shozi, the girls who had their first time with me, said while looking at me.
“Oh… Just like the first cabin, we’re not going to destroy it, we’re just going to put it in our Inventory, so it’s okay.”
We have plenty of materials.
“Whether it’s a house or anything else, as long as I can spend time with everyone, I don’t mind,” said Shinpo.
I think there’s a hint of pouting, but it might be my imagination. Shinpo’s turn is tonight.
Maybe she feels like she’s lagging behind the other three at this point.
“I don’t want to make it too big because moving around inside a huge mansion would be a hassle, but I’ll listen to everyone’s opinions.”
Even if we’re making a house for nine people and giving everyone their own room, it’s going to be a spacious house anyway…
“Hmm. Since there are more girls now, how about making the bath bigger?”
Shozi crossed her arms and put forward her suggestion. “I see. That’s a good idea.”
Since filling the tub is my job, it’s hard to make it so that anyone can use it at any time.
If I do that, I’ll have to replace the water every time it starts to cool down.
I could do it, but our women would probably hesitate.
That’s why, even now, the girls bathe together in one group, but there are eight of them today.
Originally, it was made spacious with hot springs in mind, but it might be better if it were even wider.
“If that’s the case, could you make the kitchen larger as well? It was originally made for personal use, but now Roa helps out too. And Shiyou-chan often joins in.” “I understand. I’ll do that.”
Instead of a home kitchen, let’s make it as spacious as a restaurant kitchen.
Shion’s cooking is a big part of our enjoyment of life on the desert island, so this is nothing.
”… Then, I’d be happy if there was a library. Right now, there are only textbooks, but I’d like to gradually increase them, and make it possible to browse the island’s documents… and also, to use it when I want to study.” It was a typical Shinbo idea.
“That’s true, it would be good to have a quiet place to study.”
In my room, I can only study alone, and in the living room, it’s too noisy.
A place where everyone can use the textbooks without monopolizing them is indeed useful.
“Then, how about a room for playing around?”
Shoubu said excitedly. “Play around? What do you mean?”
「Hmm. Something fun?」 「Like running around in the fields?」
Miyuki’s vague suggestion is met with a cold retort from Yurina.
「Oh, then maybe I’ll run with Serina.」 「Don’t drag me into this.」
「You want to build a gymnasium and play badminton or table tennis?」
I’m not really good at it, but I can understand wanting to do it every once in a while.
「That’s one option! What about bowling?」
I think I understand what Miyuki wants.
She’s probably thinking about setting up something like the popular amusement facilities.
「Bowling would be a hassle since we’d have to reset the pins and balls manually. How about billiards?」
「That’s great! I also want a table like in casinos to play cards!」
I’ve never actually been to a casino, but I can understand the appeal from movies.
「As a teacher, I have to discourage gambling…」
「What are you saying, Lum? This is a different world, an desert island, and we’re not betting money. There’s really nothing to worry about.」
「U-Um… Well, that might be true, but…」
「Now, now, Mr. Teacher. It hasn’t rained on this island yet, but it might in the future. I thought it would be good to have a way to pass the time at home in case it does, so I think it’s fine to have a game room.」
I mean, you could have everyone play video games or watch dramas and anime together, but I don’t see a problem with having more options.
Besides, we’ve gained a new perspective.
「Hey, Sou, I was thinking, if our physical condition carries over, couldn’t we practice sports we’re bad at here and become good at them, so that we could shine in physical education when we go back to Japan?」
It seems Shouko realized the same thing as me.
「That’s right, it’s not just about studying.」
We can accumulate all kinds of experiences on this desert island.
Even video games, which require a lot of time to master, can be practiced here for hundreds of days without the time passing on Earth. The same goes for sports.
While our innate aptitude and talent can’t be changed, we can ensure the time we put in for practice.
Building a gym might not be a bad idea. But for now, let’s prioritize the house.
「…Jumeba, are you sure you can get your money back by asking Kouno so much?」
「Fufufu, you’re too naive, Seiren. I’m fully prepared to pay back my debt.」
Jumeba smiled slyly, as if she had a plan.
「…Alright then. I don’t want to hear the details, so don’t tell me.」
「On the contrary, how do you plan on getting your money back? Your barrier abilities are amazing, but can you really pay it all back?」
「…Shut up. I’ve thought of a lot of things too.」
「Y-Yeah, that’s true… We must always consider whether our contributions are worth this treatment.」
The teacher, who had been listening to the conversation between Shoubu and Muuki, muttered something. 「Is there any other proposal?」 Chiyu raised her hand.
「Oh, Chiyu. What kind of facilities do you want?」
「I want to stay in the same room as Soku-kun.」
Instantly, Shozi said, “That’s unfair!?” Shion said, “If that’s allowed, I want to be with you too,」 and Shinpo said, “W-Well, I want to be with you too…」
Roah also said, “Then, if you will, please make a waiting room right next to me so that I can immediately respond to your requests…」
In the end, I decided to separate my private room and bedroom with a door, and allow anyone to enter the private room.
If they were to barge into my bedroom, it might cause all sorts of trouble.
Once everyone had calmed down, I would go over the details again.
To create a new home, we all went outside.
