I Became a Time-Stopper at the Academy - I Became a Time-Stopper at the Academy chapter 85

85 – Planting magical plants (3)

The next morning, today, all my girls gathered in my room.

Luisa, Elianne, Delia, Lena, Caitlyn, Benedetta.

… Obviously, the dorm room was not that small, but it was crowded.

“I have something to tell you.”

As I said, all six of them looked at me.

It was strangely pleasant to see him stop talking and listen only to hear me.

Before I was possessed, I wasn’t that popular with women….

I told them that I had succeeded in growing magic plants artificially.

The first to react was, of course, Caitlyn.

Deliana Luisa and Lena were calm because they already knew what they were talking about last night.

“Thank you!!”

Caitlyn gave me a hug.

She couldn’t stop laughing as if she was quite happy.

She actually wouldn’t have bothered if she hadn’t been my lover.

Because she is my woman, what she did was even greater.

She was happy to see her reaction.

“Other people helped me too, so I should properly thank them as well. Especially because Ran also helped me a lot.”

“Yes! Still, thank you the most. How am I supposed to repay you?”

“It’s okay even if you don’t have anything like that. Because I want you to thank me like this.”

“Do you still want something?”

If I don’t reciprocate, I wonder if my heart is not clear.

It’s money anyway, take it from the profits you get from selling weapons.

I didn’t want anything from her that far.

“Then I would like you to remodel the cadet uniform a bit more.”

“Uh, how?”

“To make the breastbone more visible. It’s hard for me to touch now.”

“Ugh, yes! Then you shouldn’t wear this shirt. Okay, I’m going today and tomorrow, I’ll remodel it to show the chest! Yes, so that it is easy for you to touch!!”

Even though he said it himself, he seemed ashamed.

Now all that remains is to prepare materials and equipment in earnest.

There are many places that already handle soil and plants.

But the biggest problem is the dead bodies of monsters.

… Even if we go to the dungeon every day, there is a limit.

“Louisa, can you buy monster corpses from Yere?”

Yere Trading Co., Ltd. Has a distribution network that ranks high in the world of .

In other words, we already have the conditions to bring monster carcasses from not only the three major countries, but also small Western countries.

“I will have to discuss the exact details with my parents, but it is possible to move them. However, in order to purchase it, I don’t think you have to open a store to purchase it separately.”

Actually, the stores opened by Yere are more like general grocery stores.

A kind of mart.

… From a general consumer’s point of view, if you go to the mart and find a monster corpse, even me would hate to go there.

“Then it would be better to open a store near the mercenary guild in each city.”

“Yes, I think so too.”

For mercenaries, the best value is money.

There is a lot of work to do after defeating monsters, but no mercenary will refuse if you can earn extra income.

“I fully invest. Create a separate department dedicated to monster distribution at Yere and supply it to Hoover Industries.”

“Even if you don’t invest, if you say….”

“No, because it’s better to do this properly.”

“Okay. Then I will tell the parents from my side.”

I decided to buy the land to grow magical plants or the space where I made fertilizer from the corpses of monsters I collected at Yere from Caitlyn’s Hoover Industries.

We talked about where to go, but in the end we chose Lauris.

Once we have a problem, we can jump right in and check it out.

As Lauris is jointly managed by three countries, there is little chance that a specific country will physically take over.

“Then, wouldn’t it be better to just build the factory site in Lauris?”

Caitlyn said, looking at the Lauris map.

“I guess so.”

What we want is mass production of magic potions.

I also needed a facility to purify magic grass grown with the cultivation method I found.

Still, you can refer to the facilities of the existing Healing Potion Factory for this part.

“I think Delia would be good as a plant manager.”

“Yes? Me??”

Delia’s expression was completely unexpected.

The reason I wanted to appoint her as the manager of her plant was extremely simple.

Because no one in this world has made as many magic potions as she.

In the first place, not many people have experience in making magic potions because the raw material, magic vinegar, is rare.

Caitlyn said, holding Delia’s hand.

“Please! I will give you a generous salary. I need Delia-sama’s know-how.”

“Oh, how much?”

… Secretly, Delia liked money.

She is a nun, but she likes erotic things and money.

At this point, I thought I had corrupted her, so I laughed a little inside her.

Caitlyn gave Delia her amount.

Then Delia’s eyes widened.

Of course, it was more than the money I was giving Delia for her case.

“But if the factory gets busy, I think I will have less time to spend with Joel….”

Delia grunted as she looked at me.

Time with me seemed more important than the money I received as a factory manager.

To be honest, I was a little happy because she said that much she likes me.

Eliane said with a grin.

“Sir, how about buying a villa in Lauris?”

“A villa?”

“Yes, if it is close to the academy and close to the magic grass field or magic potion factory, then we can all live together.”

The dormitory rooms are spacious, and usually I don’t bother looking for a separate house.

Since Lauris is not a very large city, land prices are quite expensive.

Eliane added that it was just the academy’s custom that no matter whether it was royalty or aristocrats, they should be in the dormitory.

“Seobangnim would like that too. You can do whatever you want every day in a large space without having to notice others. It would be better if you put something like a bed or a mirror that you used at the hotel last time.”

In short, we all live together.

… Do you think it would be good?

To be honest, I do have a bit of fantasy.

Because they even live together in a harem.

Ellie Anne continued her words, turning her head towards her Delia.

“If you do that, Delia-sama can fall asleep looking at Seo-bang’s face every day after work.”

“Well, then I think it will be fine! Do you think it will be better than now?!”

It was Delia—a nun who was honest with her desires.

Later, while Caitlyn was looking for land for her fields and factories, she also decided to look for a suitable house.

I thought everything was over now,

“What will the staff do?”

Benedetta asked.

Caitlyn also responded with “Oh, right.”

Whether it is a factory or a field, a lot of labor is required.

In other words, you have to hire that many employees.

I almost forgot about that basic part.

“We need to make sure that the recipe is not leaked through the staff as much as possible….”

Caitlyn put on a troubled expression.

Actually, it hasn’t been revealed so far, but the recipe itself is relatively simple.

There was a possibility that other companies would copy it as long as they found out the manufacturing method.

Eliane spoke cautiously to Caitlin.

“I may not be able to protect it to the end, but when I hire employees, I think I should disguise them as something else instead of saying they are related to magic potions. Wouldn’t it be nice to be a little reluctant?”

“If you don’t mind….”

Delia suggested, “Ah!”

“How about poisonous weed for medical use?”

“Poisonous weed?”

“Yes! Poisonous plants can also be used to cure illnesses, albeit in a limited way! Still, since it’s a poisonous plant before it’s treated, wouldn’t it be so strange to grow it even though it feels uncomfortable?”

Benedetta, Elianne, and Caitlin all nodded.

I didn’t feel bad either.

If you want to know if it’s a magical plant—except for Landau—after all, you have to try it yourself, but if you say it’s poisonous, none of the staff will think about trying it.

We decided to decide the rest of the details as we proceed.

Because it will be different from growing in pots and running a large-scale farm, I expected that it would take time to reach mass production.

Time passed and it was a week before the final exams for the first semester.

Caitlyn and Delia took me to the magic potion manufacturing plant.

I was surprised that it was bigger than I thought.

Caitlyn told her parents that she had discovered a means to mass-produce magic potions, and I heard that her parents also received a large amount of money, but I didn’t expect it to be this great.

“Here, here!”

Caitlyn confidently opened the warehouse for finished goods.

I immediately thought it was a wine factory.

The oak barrels are lined up.

“Are these all magic potions?”

“Yes! Isn’t that amazing?!”

The warehouse was filled with oak barrels.

Once I put my hand on an oak barrel.

——

Type: Beverage

Rating: SS

Description: A 200L potion that grants 60,000 temporary mana. The impurity concentration is about 0.1%.

——

… 60 Thousand?

Ah, you have to drink 200 liters to get 60,000.

I was a bit surprised because it was an item I hadn’t seen before in the game.

Since the warehouse was full of barrels containing 60,000 mana, I couldn’t figure out how much mana there was in total.

Anyway, one thing is certain: they succeeded in mass-producing magic potions.

“You both suffered.”

He stroked Caitlyn and Delia’s hair with his left and right hands.

Then both laughed briskly.

“I guess the renovation of the villa will be completed by the time the class ends!”

“Then I can go in when summer vacation starts.”

“Yes!”

After the final exams, which will start next week, the class immediately ends like a university.

I did find a suitable house to live with in Lauris, but it was in very bad condition because it was a fairly old building, so I was in the process of renovating the interior.

Delia said, blushing.

“I’ve been busy and tomorrow is a holiday, so tonight until dawn, please do something dirty!”

“Yes.”

As expected, Delia became a lecherous nun.

***

An inn located northwest of Lauris.

A middle-aged man in a rather outdated suit entered the room.

A young woman asked while accepting a suit jacket from a middle-aged man.

“Do you think it will be okay to move around now, Balbino?”

“Next week at the academy, I have my first semester final exams.”

“Are you going to use the final exam?”

Valbino nodded his head.

The reason nobles go to the academy is almost half mandatory because the academy is a safe greenhouse.

However, once the size of the greenhouse is large, competent people as engineers are continuously supplied.

So what if the size of the academy gets smaller or the academy disappears?

It is becoming difficult to find talent to write articles.

“It’s time to destroy the academy.”

If the academy is no longer a safe greenhouse, the number of people who want to go to the academy will drastically decrease.

So that makes it not a safe greenhouse.

That was Balbino’s purpose.
