Chapter 317
When the crops I planted during the spring are about to be harvested, I was working hard with woodworks in the workshop .
What I’m making is a medicine rack .
I’m doing my best because it was Loo who requested me .
Even though I said medicine rack, it is a shelf full of drawers . Because of that, it is not difficult to make since there won’t be mistakes in sizes .
The size of the drawers is what Loo requested .
Height is 20 centimeters, width is 20 centimeters, and depth is 60 centimeters .
The shelf that will hold the drawer will be 10 drawers in width and 10 drawers in height .
It looks like a square in front view .
I’m going to make the shelf first before making the drawers .
Shelves are simple .
I have a lot of experience in making one .
I calculated and measured the size with ease .
Of course, I also considered the thickness of the wood .
You shouldn’t make drawers too tight when you’re making one .
It won’t move .
There should be some spaces to consider .
Yeah, I’m glad that I noticed that when I was making my first drawer .
But what happened?
Actually, all the parts of the drawer were cut out at the beginning .
I should be on my way to assemble it… .
Who would have thought that I would make something so tight?
Should I shave it?
No, let’s just make a new shelf .
That would be faster .
There are only a few parts to prepare .
I made a new shelf .
The drawer moves smoothly .
Not too loose, not too tight .
Perfect .
Then, I’ll do my best to make all the remaining drawers .
The drawers have decorative metal fitting at the four corners and a knob .
The decorative metal fittings were made by Gutt’s disciples .
They are for 100 drawers and 10 spares .
They are stunningly the same shapes and sizes .
I’m charmed .
However, it is difficult to assemble everything alone .
I’ll ask the spiderlings to help me .
It will already be helpful if they can hand over the decorative fittings or even the knobs .
It took some time but the medicine shelf was completed .
I made it myself and it looks good .
Let’s bring it to Loo .
When carrying a shelf, it is dangerous since the drawers are not fixed .
When I was thinking about what to do, the spiderlings tied them with web .
Thank you .
As for how to transport it…
About 30 spiderlings lift the shelf and start moving .
The other spiderlings lead, guide, and open and close the door .
Honestly, thank you .
We managed to carry it to Loo’s laboratory .
Loo’s reaction upon seeing the medicine rack was excellent .
「Thank you . I’ll take good care of it . 」
When I was thinking of what she’ll put in it, she put the same herb in every drawer .
Areh?
Could it be that what you really wanted is a cabinet?
「That’s not the case . This is a magical amulet for medicine shelf . I think it is okay to leave it now . With that, the quality of the medicinal herb won’t change . 」
Could it be some sort of sterilization?
Well, that’s Loo’s specialty .
She won’t make a mistake .
「If there’s a problem, just let me know . 」
I told her that and went back to the workshop with the spiderlings .
In the workshop, the first shelf I made is still there .
What should I do with this?
It will be a waste to dismantle it .
How about I make drawers for this shelf?
Or maybe, this shelf should be used as it is .
I feel like I’ve seen something like this before . Ah, a shoebox… . but it’s too narrow to be used as one .
When I was thinking what to do, the spiderlings entered the shelf .
…… .
A slightly spacious private room for fist-size spiderlings .
For magazine size spiderlings, it will be a narrow private room .
Will this make you feel better?
Really?

Then, let’s make this the rooms for spiderlings .
The question is, where to put this shelf……
Should I bring it outside?
Or should I put it in an empty room of the mansion?
You want inside?
Understood .
I’ll ask Ann’s permission .
「This mansion belongs to my lord . Please feel free to do what pleases you . 」
Though you looked confused about why I’m asking permission, that face won’t fool me .
I remember you being in a bad mood for a while when I remodeled one of the vacant rooms before .
「The matter before, it is because there’s soil all over the room . 」
I did not intentionally spread them .
I only brought a wooden box filled with soil there .
And my purpose is not to plant anything there but for Ursa’s clay dolls .
I wondered if the clay dolls, who are Ursa’s room keeper, can’t settle down because of the environment .
I had no choice but to use trial-and-error method to figure out the environment where they could settle down .
Well, as a result, I heard that the clay dolls have no problem with the current environment .
The reason why they seem struggling is because Ursa throws her clothes all over .
Anyway .
I got permission to use an empty room in the mansion .
I immediately installed it .
Yeah, looks great… . .
Given the numbers of spiderlings, there is clearly not enough room in the shelf .
The spiderlings who failed to get a room are staring at me .
… . .
Alright .
Let’s work hard together .
Drawer is not needed .
This is easy .
In three days, we made a total of eight shelves .
The vacant room in the mansion became a shelf room .
Given the total numbers of spiderlings, these are still insufficient but it seems like they can share rooms and even use it in turn .
This is heartwarming .
Though this is heartwarming, I wonder what I should call this .
I feel like I’m a beekeeper or bug raiser .
Hnn?

At my feet is a spiderling which is one level bigger than the magazine size spiderling, a half tatami mat spiderling .
… .
I understand .
I’ll build a larger shelf and find another vacant room .
… . .
As expected, I think the two-tatami mat big spiderlings should use an empty room instead of a shelf .
If that is the case, we’ll run out of vacant rooms .
I know .
I’m not sure if I should make a shelf for one… . . okay, I’ll make something that can hold some of you .
I’ll need another vacant room .
Maa, you guys helped me a lot in various ways .
You don’t have to worry about it .
And so, the shelf rooms are recognized as the resting rooms of the spiderlings .
A few days later .
An incident happened with a fist-size spiderling staying on the center part of the first shelf .
Its room was blocked with webs .
I’ve never seen them doing this before .
What’s this?
Breeding?
Or molting?
You’re not collecting nectar like bees, are you?
A spiderling next door from the blocked room says that it’s okay… . I’m worried but I’ll trust you and leave it alone .
From that day on, the number of small closed rooms on the shelves have increased .
There are 21 of them .
A few more days later .
It is around the beginning of spring harvest .
The first closed room opened .
…… .
A spiderling has come out .
It looks like something I’ve never seen before .
However, it raises one of its legs to greet me like usual .
Yeah, some things never change .
All right, all right .
Did you molt?

You’re shiny now .
No, since it changed its appearance, it’s metamorphosis .
Or evolution?
Maa, let’s just say you molted .
From the other small room, another new kind of spiderling came out .
The pattern on your back looks pretty cool .
Oh, the first one also looks cool .
Hahaha, don’t get angry .
When I showed them to Loo and the others, their faces twitched .
It’s not that scary .
Well, they’re girls so they are probably not fans of spiders .
No, they usually interact with spiderlings .
Maybe they are not used to it since it looks strange .
Look, Alfred and Ursa greeted it energetically .
They’re not scared .
Good .
Since then, the shelf room has become a room for molting for the spiderlings .
……
Could it be that you were in pain till now?
You can only do it in hole of trees… .
I should have made it sooner .
I’m sorry .
Digression .
A kitten slept in a small shelf room .
Why do you even have to go in such a narrow place… . .
Spiderlings, sorry .
I’ll take it out immediately .
Hnn?
You don’t mind if it stays here?
Thank you… .
You should help each other?
You guys are kind .
I’ll do what I can to be that kind too .
To me who decided to do so, the sleeping cat meows as if protesting for troubling its sleep .
Good grief .
