My Reincarnation Skills Are “Playing With Dolls” and “Playing With Clay”, but What Am I Supposed to Do With These? C178

Episode 177: Elf's Holy Land

The ceramic boat they had built on the spur of the moment was not powered by any power, so it simply floated on the sea and was carried away by the tide. 

I finally had some free time, so I shaped the ship and used my clay skills to make the propeller and rudder. 

Honestly, if I didn't have clay skills this time, I really couldn't have helped. 

I don't think you should call it a trash skill. 

"Automatically move" to automatically navigate towards the island. I can't get much speed due to lack of MP though. 

It was almost dusk and the sky was getting dark, but I never lost sight of the small island that appeared beyond the horizon, emitting a mysterious rainbow-colored glow. 

"Wow, what kind of magic is it?"

"Canalira Aman, the holy land of the elves, is said to be a paradise on earth. It is said that an advanced civilization and culture that cannot be found anywhere else is flourishing there."

Lucien looks kind of proud. 

However, I feel like I've seen that rainbow-colored glow somewhere before... 

Beyond the island, even after the sun completely sets in the sea to the west, the island becomes more sparkling, or rather more glaring. 

"As expected of a sacred place for elves, isn't it? It's brighter than during the day, and there's something like a beam coming out of the island into the night sky. I wonder if it's some kind of super civilization."

"Well, on the continent, humans are the dominant race with a large population, but it is the elves who have built a truly advanced civilization."

Lucien couldn't hide the smug look on his face towards Butch, who was stunned by the shining island. 

But yeah, those are neon signs and laser lights, right? 

Why are you in a place like this... 

Eventually, the ceramic boat enters a cove lined with buildings that look like high-rise hotels along a white sand beach similar to Waikiki Beach. 

Then, from the direction of the pier, a red, blue and green light, like a cocktail light, was directed towards us. It's just like the city I was in in the modern world, but it's very vulgar... 

“Wow, it’s so beautiful, isn’t it amazing?”

"I've never seen magic like this before!"

Butch and Nolte are honestly expressing their admiration. 

A small boat approached, gliding on the waves. 

It doesn't have sails and doesn't make any loud noises like a mobile ship, so I wonder if it's powered by magic? It looks like a coast guard ship. 

Lucien warns everyone. 

"Is that a good thing? Normally, only elves with good morals and pure hearts are allowed to enter the elf's sacred place. I think you'll probably be allowed as my companion, but please behave with politeness and moderation. hey···"

A handsome man with long ears peeked out from the security boat that was next to the ceramic ship. 

He shows off his pure white teeth and smiles broadly. ♪Sparkling...With the sound effects, seven colored lights shine like a halo. He looks like he's in his twenties, but since he's an elf, he's probably an adult. 

For some reason, I can't see the status, but maybe it's because of the elf's secret techniques or some special mechanism unique to the holy land. 

More than half of the girls are entranced by the appearance of a handsome elf who looks like a prince in a girls' manga... 

"Hey, kittens. Welcome to Canalila, the island closest to heaven, yay!"

My knees buckled. 

 fart? "It's the elf's sacred place," right? Here. 

I quickly turned towards Lucien, but he wouldn't meet my eyes. Was he frozen? 

Isn't the island closest to heaven not Hawaii but New Caledonia? Or, Butch may be a real kitten, but is he picking up people in a dead language? Or...I don't know where to start. 

　

He wears a uniform that looks like something from a police academy, an overly decorated cap, and a magic wand hanging from his waist that isn't a baton. 

"Wow, he's handsome, he's an elf boy."

“Kyaa, it’s amazing that you came all the way to pick me up.”

 that? Maggie and Butch, this is fine. I'm receiving it...I'm kind of doubly shocked. 

“Welcome, welcome to Canalilla.”

Just as I was thinking that, the person who appeared next to me and spoke to me was an international flight attendant with sparkling eyes, a female elf wearing a uniform that looked like a cabin attendant, but with a kind of ``play at that kind of shop'' kind of thing. Ta. 

Her beauty rivals Lucien's, but her smile and moderately loose feel make her feel approachable. 

(Why, are you stretching the area under your nose?)

Lina pokes her head out of the leather bag and stares, but Danji isn't like that. 

Apparently, this ship is still engaged in official duties such as coast guard and immigration guidance. 

The situation was so different from the tension we had felt before, and without knowing what to do, we were escorted by a very friendly man and woman and taken to the airport's passport control/immigration counter. 

There were many more friendly and beautiful men and women there, and while they were constantly talking to me in cheerful tones, I was made to pass through devices one by one that looked like guild cards, status disclosures, and other magic tools that I didn't understand. Ta. 

During that time, I was treated to delicious sweets and juices whose names I didn't even know, like a members-only lounge. 

As soon as I tasted it, I felt light-hearted. 

At the same time, wonderful music comparable to Lucien's singing voice echoes from somewhere, and the scent of a deep forest wafts through the air, making my heart feel calm... 

Each member will be escorted by an attractive member of the opposite sex who will guide them to the best of their ability. 

Each of them received explanations such as that all weapons would be left here, and that all food, clothing, and shelter would be provided during their stay. 

During that time, in hindsight, was there quarantine, customs, background checks, etc.? In any case, it seemed like everything had been thoroughly investigated, but I didn't even have time to question it. 

It's a sacred place, so I'm sure the immigration inspection is thorough. 

Only when I checked Lucien's guild card on the way,

"What do you mean? An elf is a slave to a human...let's go to the temple and go through the procedures to release the slave right away."

, the official told Lucien and me in a matter-of-fact tone. 

Originally, I had promised Lucien that I would free him from slavery once he reached the elf holy land, so of course I had no objection. 

When I asked Lucien about the location of the temple, he told me that he would send to pick him up tomorrow. 

《Namba○○××▼□!★, arrangement for temple ID rewriting...》

I thought I heard a voice that sounded like an AI, but Lucien seemed to be silently thinking about something. 

"Next, I would like to explain the basic income system for holders of elf citizenship..."

The next thing that surprised me was when the handsome staff member who was accompanying Lucien said something like that. 

In Canalila, all those who are allowed to enter the country are provided with a minimum amount of food, clothing, and shelter, and a minimum amount of currency called "ergo", and elves are also given a fixed amount of "ergo" every month. 

Using it, elves can receive special services, enjoy entertainment, and socialize. 

If the amount provided is not enough or if you want to earn more, you can earn currency by doing volunteer work. 

After the explanation, everyone was given a silver bracelet, and the number engraved on it was linked to something like account management. 

"Plan your use"

You smiled, but was it a card loan? Or is it a salary? 

"It's unthinkable in the Empire for everyone to be guaranteed food, clothing, and shelter. No, it's not just the Empire, I've never heard of such a thing. After all, this place is called a holy place, isn't it like heaven?"

"Seriously, I can't believe it. You're not going to want to go home anymore, are you?"

Mag and Buchi roll their eyes. 

No matter how different the world is, how does it work in that money is paid even if you don't work? 

And about an hour has passed. 

"Immigration formalities are complete! Once again, welcome to Canarilla, the promised land of the elves! We warmly welcome our elf compatriots and their friends. Enjoy your life in paradise forever and ever..."

When the most handsome and best-dressed elf declared, a magical blizzard of flowers fell from somewhere, and a sound effect that sounded like crackers bursting sounded. 

“These two people, Lanoras and Vizcacia, will be in charge of you as your personal attendants.”

Two young elves, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, greeted each other with smiles. 

``It's already late today, so the attendant will guide you to the temporary accommodation facility. Tomorrow morning, we will take you to the temple and then to the Canarilla Civic Hall. We will explain the privileges granted to you, and from now on, you can enjoy it to the fullest."

　It's really exhausting. 

Well, it's already night and I've had a really hard day, so if you could take me to a hotel, that would be fine. 

It's just tomorrow...tomorrow... 

Lanoras and Viscacia, accompanied by handsome and beautiful attendants, moved from the immigration building to a building that looked like a high-rise hotel. 

Of course, the room is also splendid. There are three luxurious two-bedroom rooms, a reception room, a balcony facing the sea, and is this a shower room? 

At Viscacia's urging, we each took turns entering the shower room, which was illuminated with glittering seven-colored light. 

Somehow, by some magic, hot water with a nice scent comes out and I take a bath. When I was bathed in it, I felt really good, but I started to feel dazed and my ability to think was slow. I guess I'm tired after all. 

《...Implementation of measures to prevent Karano pathogens from being introduced outside the barrier...completed/Administration of fatigue recovery/virtual enhancement ingredients...completed/Implementation of mental calming/anti-magic resistance elimination measures...completed》

Another inorganic announcement comes out of nowhere, but it doesn't register in my head. 

My body was automatically dried with warm air like wind magic, and I didn't resist Biscacia's shamelessly dressing me in clean clothes, just doing as I was. 

Not just me, but the girls that follow too. 

When I looked at my friends, their eyes were open and they looked happy, but they also looked tired. 

Something isn't right. 

　Even though such an extraordinary and impossible thing is happening, it is strange to accept it as it is. 

That thought was certainly in the back of my mind, but when we were all taken to the fluffy beds and the lights flickered on, we all fell into a peaceful sleep, as if we were hypnotized.
