Soon, with Anya's diligent running, Hoshino Sora arrived at the entrance of the central village. The moment he appeared, countless gazes from within the village turned towards him.
"Master!"
"Master, you've finally come back to see us~"
"Master, we miss you so much!"
In the village, the monster girls greeted him enthusiastically. These were mainly the Neko Mata Clan and the Morin Spirit Clan. Although some other races also greeted him in an outgoing manner, their proportion was relatively small.
This was also easy to understand. After all, they had less contact with him, and their understanding of him was all hearsay. Once they had more contact in the future and knew his goodness, they would naturally become like everyone else, greeting him very enthusiastically upon seeing him.
However, all of this required time, and yet the one thing Hoshino Sora had in abundance was time.
"Alright, alright, everyone disperse. Anya and I are going to visit the village together. Too many people can cause chaos. Everyone go about your own business."
Waving to every slave who came up to greet him, until he had walked past this street, Hoshino Sora looked at the slaves gathered around to watch the commotion and spoke to dismiss them. It was simply too inconvenient to have so many people following him.
"Yes."
Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, the slaves quickly dispersed and went about their respective tasks. Of course, people around him would still greet him enthusiastically, but it changed from surrounding him to waving. Hoshino Sora also responded positively to this situation.
"Master, this is the tea factory. According to your instructions, the Flower Fairy Clan, as internal staff, is actively producing Fragrant Snow White tea leaves. However, due to the exceptionally complicated production process, the current daily output is around 10 jin."
Pointing to a three-story villa-style building not far away, several figures were busy inside. They were placing tea leaves into... for kneading, their bodies glistening with sweat from fatigue.
Hmm, what a beautiful scene!
"Master, please taste."
At some point, a petite and cute girl ran from the tea factory to Hoshino Sora, and while speaking, handed him the teacup in her hand. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks, and her eyes, looking at the young man, were filled with evasion.
"Hmm, as expected of Fragrant Snow White, the quality is higher than I imagined. You must have put a lot of effort into this."
Glancing at the pride on the Flower Fairy's chest, Hoshino Sora's face showed satisfaction. This tea recipe was something he had obtained by chance, and upon seeing it, he was amazed, so he had the manor produce it.
As expected, the taste was absolutely superb!
"As long as Master likes it, we are willing to put in any amount of effort! It is our honor to be able to help Master!"
Upon receiving Hoshino Sora's praise, the short Flower Fairy's face immediately showed excitement, and her body trembled slightly. Wasn't this what they had worked so hard for all this time?!
"Here, take these. Consider them a reward for your hard work during this period."
There were a total of eleven Flower Fairies. Although they were small in stature, each one had an explosive figure, making them very suitable for the production of Fragrant Snow White. The Fragrant Snow White tea leaves they produced were all top-grade.
"Thank you for your generosity, Master."
Looking at the Gourmet Coupon in her hand, the small flower fairy's face showed a look of pleasant surprise. She had tasted Hoshino Sora's cooking once and savored the memory for three full days. That taste, she still couldn't forget!
"This is what you deserve. Work hard, and you will get more in the future."
Hoshino Sora said with a smile, then instinctively patted Anya's backside. When he came to his senses, he saw Anya's face flushed red, and he immediately said awkwardly, "Sorry, it was purely instinctive."
"It's fine, it's my honor for Master to hit me."
Shaking her head, Anya didn't blame Hoshino Sora. Instead, she showed a strange smile, as if being hit caused not pain but comfort.
"Let's continue the tour first."
Seeing Anya's smile, Hoshino Sora felt something was off but didn't think much of it. He sat on her broad back and continued to tour the village, while also distributing many rewards.
On the way, Hoshino Sora also met Windsor and the others. They were very surprised to see him, and after a series of hugs and lifts, they reluctantly left. Due to their deepening relationship, Windsor's attitude towards Hoshino Sora became increasingly unrestrained.
She seemed to have the idea of acting like a rebellious subordinate to her master.
After a long while, Hoshino Sora finished touring the changes in the central village, and then, led by Anya, he toured the farmlands, pastures, and rivers outside the village. At the same time, he also saw the small gathering places built throughout the Gourmet Manor, which were mainly for the patrolling Centaur Clan to reside in.
Simply put, they were houses very suitable for the Centaur Clan to live in. Anya even brought Hoshino Sora back to her home, which also allowed him to see many of her private clothes, all of which were not quite suitable for broadcast.
However, Anya didn't mind these. She quickly put away her clothes and then returned to the room to change into a new set, as the purpose of her going home was because she was covered in sweat.
Hmm, after she changed her clothes, Hoshino Sora's eyes couldn't help but light up. A Centaur girl paired with a sailor suit, who came up with this combination? It was unexpectedly suitable!
Time passed from morning to evening. Especially at noon, after Windsor finished her work, she found Hoshino Sora and sat in front of him, personally explaining the changes in the Gourmet Manor over the past week.
Hoshino Sora nodded as he watched, and at the same time, he noted down many ingredients that had undergone beneficial mutations. Windsor even thoughtfully recorded these mutated ingredients in a book to facilitate her Master's selection.
As for such a thoughtful Windsor, Hoshino Sora naturally gave her Gourmet Coupons as a reward. However, she shook her head, saying that doing so was her duty, and if he really wanted to give something, he should give some special rewards.
Hmm, the content of the special rewards is not quite suitable for broadcast.
But Hoshino Sora still did as she asked, because Windsor was very beautiful, and her elf ears really appealed to him. Secondly, she was his right-hand woman, and he was very willing to help her solve some physiological needs without violating his principles.
However, this made Anya shy. She became exceptionally fidgety, but she couldn't bring herself to stop them, only listening silently to the sounds coming from above her. Her body underwent some changes because of this sound.
Some inexplicable attribute was awakening in her heart!
After a long while, the three of them arrived at a higher dirt slope, from which they could survey the surrounding landscape. Hoshino Sora looked at the beautiful rivers and mountains within the Gourmet Manor, feeling satisfied, and lightly tapped his hand in the void.
