Chapter 2063 - Water Tree Sapling
"No, this is the place. I didn't bring you to the wrong place..." Kuro Usagi said awkwardly since she somehow understood why Haru asked this question.
"....."
Haru smiled bitterly when he thought that 120 children were living in this place and they couldn't do anything besides relying on Kuro Usagi and Jin.
Asagi also couldn't say anything and clutched Haru's hand tighter, watching the destroyed land of the "No-Name."
The land was in drought, it was infertile, the wall was in ruin, the wooden gate crumbled when it was touched, and it was amazing that more than 120 children were living in this place without many complaints.
Haru looked at Izayoi, who touched the soil on the ground, and felt a bit surprised that Izayoi didn't walk out of the "No-Name," considering his pride.
Izayoi might be proud, but he wasn't stupid. He didn't have power, connection, information, and all other things even though he was confident in his IQ after he had lost before, and when he was left behind alone in the jungle, it made him realize how helpless his situation was.
Still, if Haru knew what Izayoi was thinking, then he could only say that Izayoi's guts weren't even bigger than the group of children in the "No-Name" community. However, it wasn't that surprising since Izayoi's life was different from those helpless children's, and it was the first time Izayoi had felt this helpless situation.
"Kuro Usagi, how many hundreds of years ago was the Gift Game with the Demon Lord?" Asagi asked with a solemn expression.
"It was only three years ago."
"...." Asagi was in silence since it wouldn't be weird if someone told her that the Demon Lord had attacked this place a century ago, but Kuro Usagi told her that it was only three years ago, which made her quite dumbfounded.
"It's quite surprising," Haru said and could only blame the "No-Name" community's bad luck. After all, there were so many communities in the Little Garden, but why only the "No-Name" that was attacked?
If there wasn't any cause, then Haru could only say that it was because the "No-Name" had bad luck, but he wouldn't say anything since it was rude.
"But if you consider the power of the Demon Lord, it's understandable," Kuro Usagi said.
Haru thought for a moment and said, "Shiroyuki."
"What's wrong, Haruka-sama?" Shiroyuki stood right beside Haru closely without, moving away from him after she had seen his real face. She understood why he decided to wear a facemask most of the time since she also understood that if someone saw his face, then he would be surrounded by a lot of vixens, and it would cause trouble for his master, so she decided to stay with him all the time.
On his right side, there was Asagi, but Shiroyuki wouldn't give his left side to anyone.
"Do you have something that can give water to this place?" Haru asked. He knew that Shiroyuki was a Water God, so he was wondering whether this girl had something that could give water to this place.
Frankly, Haru could return everything in this place back to normal with his age manipulation ability, but he didn't want to give everything to this "No-Name" ability directly since he was afraid that they might not appreciate the thing that he had given so easily. He would help them, but not all of them, but slowly, and at the same time, he also wanted to remind them first what it meant to receive his help.
Still, even though Haru hadn't thought to return this place to a normal state, he could give water, so the children in this place didn't need to bring water from a faraway place. He also needed water to drink and take a bath. Instead of asking a group of little children to collect them, giving him a guilty feeling, it was better to give this place water. He might be able to do it, but he didn't really want to open all of his cards.
"Yes." Shiroyuki nodded and took out a tree sapling from the sleeve of her kimono. "With this, this place won't be troubled by water anymore."
"What's that?" Asagi asked.
"Th - This is Water Tree Sapling!" Kuro Usagi said in surprise.
"Do you know what it is, Kuro Usagi?" Asuka asked.
"Ye - Yes..." Kuro Usagi couldn't take her eyes away from the Water Tree Sapling on Shiroyuki's hand and wanted to grab it, but she knew that she couldn't do it. "Sapling Water Trees can produce water, and it is said that the communities that possess water trees would no longer be required to buy water from other communities."
Haru looked at the Water Tree Sapling curiously then gave it to Kuro Usagi. "My gift to you. You can have it."
"Is - is this okay, Haruka-sama?" Kuro Usagi asked in shock since Haru had given this precious gift so easily.
"You don't want to?" Haru wanted to take back the Water Tree Sapling and teased Kuro Usagi.
"Please let me take it, Haruka-sama!" Kuro Usagi directly hugged Haru without care, pressing her soft breasts against Haru's chest.
Haru looked at Kuro Usagi for a moment and said, "Beg for me."
Kuro Usagi's spine shuddered, and her face flushed when she heard Haru's words.
"........" Everyone.
"I was joking. You don't need to seriously think about it. This is only a small matter for me, but..."
"But...?" Kuro Usagi quickly asked.
"I'll give you this, but prepare me a good bath, alright?" Haru asked.
"Ye-Yes! Please don't worry about it!" Kuro Usagi nodded without hesitation.
Haru then gave the Water Tree Sapling to Kuro Usagi and let her put it on the dry water circulation on the headquarters of the "No-Name" community.
Along with everyone, Haru looked at Kuro Usagi, who put the Tree Water Sapling on the top of the pillar of the water circulation, and saw water poured out from it. He could see that everyone was happy and it was all good. "Shiroyuki."
"Hmm?"
"Thank you." Haru looked at Shiroyuki and asked, "Do you have something that you want to ask? You have given me that thing after all."
"No, no, it is only a small thing for me." Shiroyuki refused Haru's offer since she did this because it was a normal thing to do since she was his maid and even though all of her things were his.
"Are you sure that you're not asking something, Shiroyuki?" Asagi asked with a smile since she knew that Shiroyuki was the one who had given the water in this place.
"Huh? What do you mean, Asagi-sama?" Shiroyuki asked with a confused expression.
Asagi showed a mischievous smile and whispered something to Shiroyuki's ears.
"Wh ---?!" Shiroyuki's face turned red in an instant.
Haru looked at Asagi helplessly before he shook his head, thinking that his stay in this world was too peaceful, right?
Still, Haru wondered whether he should make his own community or join this "no-name" community.. He looked at Jin, who was still immersed in happiness, and thought that everything depended on this boy.
