CH 215
“It’s not amazing!” Mikoto yelled, snapping at the instrument and its sound.
Can Mikoto understand instruments and music?
“Do you happen to know anything about music quality, Mikoto?” I asked.
“I wouldn’t know,” Mikoto said. “I’ve been studying magic with you all this time, right, Floto?”
Ah… that’s right… then why were you reacting like you knew exactly what made something amazing?
“I don’t know the details, but I just know if it’s great or not!” Mikoto said. 1
“I see……” I said.
Certainly, I think that what Leopolt’s blowing was music. He may have just played those sounds because there were used for this world’s already existing instruments. But I do believe that Leopolt was playing some kind of tune. The sound was too close to me and loud, but it didn’t bother him. I feel like I understand what Mikoto is saying.
“You’re a musician, aren’t you?” Mikoto asked. “Then why don’t you compose for these new instruments?”
“Yes! Please let me compose for it!” Leopolt said. “This… it will be a new song with a new instrument! Together with my son Amadeus, I will definitely create a song that will satisfy you, Sir Caan!”
Apparently, Leopolt’s son can also compose. He was already cooperating in making the musical instruments, so I’ll leave it to Leopolt.
“I would like to tell you about a song that I have in mind…” I said.
“Oh! Speaking of which! Let me introduce you to Amadeus! He’s more talented than I am,” Leopolt said.
I wanted him to know of songs from my previous life. Then Leopolt wanted his son to join in, so we met him. What Leopolt says is not just a parent’s idealistic blindness, but Amadeus certainly seems to have more talent and sense than Leopolt.
After we met and introduced ourselves briefly, I showed him my instrument and I hummed and whistled a song that I had in mind, or rather, I knew from my previous life, and Amadeus immediately came up with something new. He wrote it down on the spot. Apparently, my humming and whistling inspired him, and he immediately started getting to work.
“I didn’t know that you even made musical instruments, Flora,” Alexandra said.
“Yeah, well…” I said vaguely.
Even after we returned to the mansion, they kept talking about those instruments. Everyone seemed to really like the prototype. After all, girls like music, don’t they?
I was just asking them to make instruments for military use and something similar to marching bands. It’s not because I’m interested in art or creative music or anything like that.
However, what I had them make wasn’t just for marching bands. Not only brass instruments but also woodwind instruments, percussion instruments, string instruments, keyboard instruments, etc., which are difficult to use in marching bands or are not generally included, are being developed.
Would they rather build a town dealing with music and art like those?
Well, it’s not bad, but it’s in its still early days. We can’t start preparations right away. It’s good to prepare for such things from now on, but it’s unreasonable to suddenly start building a town without any prospects for success yet.
Aside from that, I have made various instruments and found someone to compose, so I think it’s okay to say that this is a tentative prospect. Further improvement of musical instruments and development of new musical instruments. I have permitted them to freely compose music for new instruments using them.
Oops… that’s right. Since I made a musical instrument, it would be pointless if I didn’t rush to organize a military band. Military bands should be trained so that they can play new instruments while Leopolt and Amadeus are composing music.
""
Increased production of musical instruments, the establishment of military bands, the start of musical instrument practice… that’s about it for today’s harvest. Also, it’s a problem whether or not to introduce a military band to other armies…
The Caan Knighthood establishes a military band. This is the explicit goal. The problem is about the armies created in other free cities. The instruments we make at home are also confidential information. I want to monopolize manufacturing and sales for the time being. You may ask me if I prioritize profits over spreading the growth of music, but of course, I will prioritize profits.
Well, in the first place, I don’t think new instruments without music to play with them will sell so explosively, but the biggest problem is that if other regions start doing similar things to imitate the processing, the technical advantage we have will shrink. Rather than a questioning of selling the instrument itself or not, if the technical capabilities of those around us increase while trying to imitate our work, our superior advantage will be shaken.
No matter how much I am the leader of the Caanza Alliance and all free-to-join cities are de facto my territories, I am worried about whether it will be okay to transfer any kind of technology. It would be a big loss if only the technology and infrastructure were taken away by saying that the situation would change in the future, and then they easily withdraw from the Alliance with our benefits once they have what they wanted.
After all, for the time being, it would be better to leave the affairs of each city out of House Caan and Caanza Trading Firm and have them do it with their independent budgets using only their tax revenues. Not only the budget but also the army and equipment, everything should be answered by each city.
Of course, I’ll send my protégés to the upper echelons and commanders, but in the worst case, it’s necessary to take measures so that there won’t be any problems if the member cities become independent once more.
“Ignatz, Schwartz, about the future military administration…” I said.
““Sir!”” both cried.
I will tell the two people who were waiting by my side about the future. I have to go to the capital again soon. I’ll let them handle important matters and make decisions, but if you have to get my approval for each and every trivial matter while I’m in the royal capital, they can’t move forward with anything. Only rough policies and outlines are decided, and the rest is left to the discretion of the person in charge.
In the end, after returning that day, I had a never-ending pile of work, including meetings, interviews, and paperwork.
“… Mm.”
Something feels good in my chest. Like this… softly, rustling sensation, like being touched…
“Wait, what are you doing!?”
“Oh, you’re awake.”
“Oh, you’re awake.” my ass! What in the hell are you doing!?
I was sleeping in Manor Caan, in Caanburg. Then I woke up in the middle of the night feeling a sensation. When I wake up, beautiful girls are looking at me and touching my body while they’re in the same bed as me. It would be unreasonable to say that you shouldn’t be surprised to find yourself in such a situation.
“What. In. The. Hell. Are you doing…?” I asked.
“Ummm… what do you mean?” Katharina asked.
Somehow I feel that the nuance is not very good. They didn’t say anything, but instead, “what do you mean?”
“Flora… we have less than a week to stay in Caanburg,” Alexandra said. “And yet we still have made no progress with you… we’ve got no choice but to go night crawling now!”
“Wait, what are you saying?!” I cried.
What could they be…?
“You won’t lay a hand on us, Floto, so we have no choice but to approach you, instead!” Claudia said.
“No… umm…”
I want you to wait a minute. This is already…
“Is there any trouble with doing it with each other, instead, because you’re all women?” I asked.
“”””I’d rather do it with you than between us.””””
Eh~…… they’re not all explicitly gay, but it’s fine if it’s me
“Do you think it’s alright if I love five people at the same time?”
“””””………”””””
The 5 are looking at each other. After all, I want to love them all. I love all 5 of them. That’s just being inconsiderate.
“Isn’t it fine?” Mikoto asked. “Even Ploiss allows polygamy, doesn’t it?”
“In your case, Flora, there may be some things that can’t be helped,” Alexandra said. “Although you and I were torn apart by Fate’s mischief, if after that you met someone else and fall in love with them, I can’t interfere with that.”
“I hurt you, Floto, and ended up breaking you as I did… I’d be happy if I just end up as a concubine or something among others, even though I can’t help it if you’ll be officially someone else’s,” Louisa said.
“As far as I’m concerned, if I get married to you, Floto, other cute girls like these will follow, so I’ll be very happy!” Claudia said.
I understand what everyone is saying. Though, I have to wonder about what Claudia just said… I can’t even say that it would be great for all of us. I’ve also been involved with other girls at the same time, so I can understand what Claudia is saying, or rather, I’m in the same hole as her…
“There’s nothing to be confused about,” Katharina said. “It’s a simple matter, Miss Flora. We all want to be by your side. That’s why I fought with the other 4 to be the one beside you Even if there is a possibility that we can’t stay together as lovers, we want to keep being with you, that’s all.”
“However… even though we keep saying you shouldn’t run around, it’s always you running amok, Katharina!” Mikoto yelled. “You may not care but I think you need to be punished somehow!’
“Didn’t I come night crawling with everyone tonight?” Katharina countered.
“Just tonight, you mean?” Mikoto said angrily. “Just this day, you mean? You’re always outfoxing us, aren’t you?”
………….
“Puh…!” I snickered.
“Floto?” Mikoto asked.
Everyone was looking at me in amazement as I burst out laughing involuntarily. But I can’t help but laugh at this.
“I always thought that if I told everyone that I loved them, even though I was a woman, you’d think I was disgusting, and I was worried that I might be persecuted by the Church,” I said. “But… instead of worrying about those, I should have told you my feelings first rather than all of this.”
I was scared. I was worried that if I said I like or loved them not as friends but as romantic interests even though we were girls, they might get offended.
The times I met them were all different, and everyone has their reasons for misunderstandings, breaking up, and getting separated, I thought I would need to say.
But I didn’t need to worry about that. Everyone accepts me like this. And everyone chose to be by my side, along with everyone else, too.
“From now on, let’s sleep with all 6 of us together!” I said. “First of all, though, we need a bed large enough for all six of us to sleep in.”
“Right?” Mikoto said. “I fell off last time.”
“There are things we can do because we’re in such closeness from the smallness of it all, but…” Alexandra said.
Mikoto pats my head while Alexandra approaches me. Is it okay to be this happy? I don’t need to choose anyone, they don’t need to choose anyone, I’m just surrounded by the girls who I love and who love me back…
“Then let’s kiss to seal this oath…” Katharina said.
“Wait! Why are you trying to do it first, Katharina?!” Mikoto yelled.
“That’s right! It’s forbidden to run wild!” Alexandra said.
“We really need to discuss an order to all this,” Claudia said.
“I don’t think I can just stay quiet and lose, either,” Louisa said.
As Katharina tries to kiss me, she’s criticized all at once by the other 4. But for Katharina, it’s just a pebble, a stumbling block, and a light breeze.
“Fufu.”
“Ah! What are you laughing at!”
“Why don’t we let Floto decide?”
“Fine by me.”
“Come on, Miss Flora.”
“Please decide with whom you will have your first kiss.”
“Huh?! I can’t decide such an important thing right away…”
It’s my first kiss. I think it’s everyone’s, too. Or rather, I don’t want it to be different. I want to steal everyone’s first kiss. But if I was told to choose what to do from these 5 people, I couldn’t choose.
If you choose 1 person, it may become the source of various disputes. And I can’t decide who is the best. Everyone is important and I love everyone. But if I’m worried like this, I can’t kiss everyone no matter how long it takes. It is troublesome.
I wonder if there’s a better way… Do we all kiss at the same time? It’s kind of impossible… It would be impossible for 6 people to kiss each other at the same time because they would bang each other’s heads against each other… how long can our mouths extend? We’d have to be an entirely different species.
“Eh, uh… so we’re postponing it until we come up with a good solution…”
“”We all thought you’d come up with something that lame, Floto.””
It’s terrible……. I never thought the 5 of them would say something like that… well, I can’t say anything back because they’re right, but from now on, I only have a feeling that my 5 wives will be on my ass from now on.
Can Mikoto understand instruments and music?
“Do you happen to know anything about music quality, Mikoto?” I asked.
“I wouldn’t know,” Mikoto said. “I’ve been studying magic with you all this time, right, Floto?”
