Otherworld Dagashi Shop Yahagi

Spring has come to Luganda.

The snow covering the ground has melted and daffodils are beginning to bloom in sunny areas.

It’s still cold, but every day I realize that the weather is getting better and better.

Development using Zord has progressed considerably during the winter.

The main roads to the street have been completely paved and are now good enough for two horse-drawn carriages to pass each other.

Honestly speaking, it’s even better than the road managed by the country.

It’s as if the prefectural roads are wider than the national roads.

Not only did we maintain the roads, we also built a lot of things.

We have more than tripled the amount of fields and residential lands, and we even built a public bathhouse.

We dug an onsen with Genos, and it was splendidly done.

Public hygiene is very important.

However, it didn’t feel enough to just have a bath, so I made full use of my knowledge from my previous life and prepared a rock bath and a sauna.

We even dug a hole beside the dungeon to create a cave bath.

This has been well received not only by the locals, but also by tourists.

Luganda is developing now not only as a Dungeon Town, but also as a tourist spot.

Recently, the number of wealthy people who come to Luganda to take a good bath has increased.

With that in mind, a new hotel is currently under construction.

Thanks to this, jobs have been created and the population has increased again.

It seems like our current population has now increased to 316.

The development has been so rapid that the number of houses has not kept pace with the population.

Nakaram-san, panting heavily, is busy preparing administrative documents. 𝗯𝐞𝗱𝐧𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

I wish he could just be the territory lord, but things apparently don’t work that way.

We were living peacefully like this, but then, an incident suddenly happened.

One windy day, while my shop was open as usual, the aide Nakaram-san came running in, his muscles tense with nervousness.

[Yahagi-sama, it’s an emergency! This is no time to be carefreely cooking monjayaki!]

[This isn’t monjayaki, it’s our new product, ankodama!]

[What it is doesn’t matter! We have received a message from the Royal Capital!]

[What’s the message?]

[I don’t know, but it seems to be an emergency. The messenger is waiting in the living room, so please come to the Lord’s Manor immediately.]

I don’t remember doing anything wrong, so I don’t think I have anything to be scolded for.

Ah, did they find out about the Teleportation Portal?

Or perhaps, is this about the Zord?

Well, it’s no use thinking about this. Let’s just go see that messenger.

[I’m sorry, everyone, but I’m closing up shop for the day. See you tomorrow.]

I said goodbye to everyone who looked worried for me and returned to the Lord’s Manor.

I met the messenger at the Lord’s Manor.

After he graciously bowed his head to me, he handed me the King’s royal decree.

There were no soldiers around to arrest me, so it didn’t look like he was sent here to capture me.

I wonder what the King had written though.

[Errr…… Luganda’s Territory Lord, Yuusuke Yahagi. At this juncture, I am———— HAAHHH!?]

I was so surprised by the content that I couldn’t help letting out a cry.

Without a moment’s delay, the nearby Michelle asked me why.

[What’s the matter, Yuusuke? What did the King say?]

[This…… is a summons……]

[Huh?]

[It’s an order from his Majesty. He wants me to bring soldiers and participate in the war……]

This is completely out of the blue.

Me, who had become a lord because of my dagashi shop, have apparently been sent to war.

However, to cut to the chase, this battle will end soon.

It was only after this war though that my destiny would once again change drastically.
