soon joined in, silently helping her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For some reason, they all wore expressions that said, “Guess we have no choice”.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Uh, it’s winter, so don’t just leave your sweat like that, okay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Make sure to wipe it off or take a bath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Got itー!」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The giant snowman they built was a big hit with the children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A heavy snowstorm hit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first floor of the mansion was completely buried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, the giant snowman that Ya and the mountain elves made was swallowed by the snow too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When I tried to comfort them, they cheerfully replied that next time, they’d make one big enough not to get buried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The children wanted to help as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I appreciate the enthusiasm, but considering the risk of a snowman rolling away or collapsing, make sure to take all necessary safety measures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accidents are no good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because of the heavy snow, we mostly stayed indoors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I sat under the kotatsu, relaxing with Raigiel the father cat and Jewel the mother cat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On top of the kotatsu table, the wine slime was drinking as usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything seemed the same as always.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…….\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Except for one thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next to the wine slime sat a smaller wine slime that looked just like it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No way, could it be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A child born from the wine slime and that pure white holy slime?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But wait, slimes multiply by splitting up, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As I wondered, the smaller slime suddenly changed color and turned completely white.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yeah, that settles it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s the child of the wine slime and the holy slime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Congratulations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That child seems to be… drinking sake, but is that okay?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Well, I guess it’s fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It is the wine slime’s offspring, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Either way, this is a cause for celebration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s bring out something special.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I opened the hidden door in my room and took a small barrel of sake from the secret shelf inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I poured it into a cup, but…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Areh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This isn’t the sake I know.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What I poured was supposed to be amber-colored, yet what’s in front of me is golden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No, this isn’t sake at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It smells like alcohol, but that scent’s coming from the barrel itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was it switched?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I looked at the wine slime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>N-no, the wine slime might sneak a drink now and then, but it would never pull something sneaky like replacing the sake to cover it up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It has that dwarven sense of honor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Which means…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The culprit is the wine slime’s child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or maybe not?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems the child poured it in, but both of them drank it together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I see.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As punishment, I ordered the wine slime to go outside and rescue the frozen slimes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how many times I warn them, there are always a few that end up frozen out there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, what exactly is this golden liquid?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something produced by the wine slime’s child?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drinking it restores health?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So it’s basically a healing potion, not alcohol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then what should I do with it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It feels wasteful to drink it when I’m not injured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But pouring what I’ve already put in a cup back into the barrel doesn’t sit right with me either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it’s not like someone conveniently needs a healing potion right now…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So I brought the cup of golden potion to Loo.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She’d probably find some way to use it for research.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the barrel… I’ll just put it back on the shelf.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe I should make a new hiding spot next time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I slipped back under the kotatsu and petted Raigiel and Jewel again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A pile of frozen slimes was stacked by the mansion’s front entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And in my room, the wine slime was calmly drinking as if nothing had happened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for its child… Loo had captured it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently, the golden healing potion has a strong effect on both physical and mental fatigue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I can see a lot of people wanting that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>「Just one cup of it, and you won’t need to sleep for the whole day!」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Make sure to get enough sleep regardless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, since it might interfere with growth, kids shouldn’t be drinking it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll treat it like alcohol…actually, even for adults, they should dilute it with tea or something before drinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For now, I’ll have Loo test how much it can be diluted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The wine slime’s child probably can’t produce large quantities anyway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Glueworld: 「I can’t help but feel uneasy about how little I’ve been appearing lately」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kierbit: 「Same」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Donovan: 「Indeed」\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>-0-\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tou: 「I thought she’d make a bold move all at once」(Areh? There’s been no progress)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gou: 「She’s more of a klutz than I expected」(This time it was just Kuzu-san doing all the work)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Loch: 「Right? At this rate, it’ll take years to move things forward」(Maybe Yoru will get ahead first?)\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hih: 「If we interfere carelessly, it could backfire on us.
