I Made A Simple Herb Garden


 

“Hmm, that’s more than I expected… Are you alright, Mr.
Takumi?”
“Yes, I’m still fine.”
“It’s good that you wish to work hard, but you must be careful and not do anything reckless.”

“Yes.”

 

I had made herbs in both the place that got lots of sunlight and the place with shade.
As Liza and I gazed at them with satisfaction, Mr.
Ekenhart and Sebastian voiced their concern.

Even Leo was looking at me with worry.

I knew that I wasn’t even close to fainting, but I should avoid making them worried.

 

“Now, I’ll have to gather half of these.”
“Yes.
…Your Grace.”
“Mmm, I know.”
“…You’re going to do it too, Mr.
Ekenhart?”

 

Part of the job was gathering them and using Weed Cultivation to alter their state.

But just as I stretched out to pick some, Sebastian said something to Mr.
Ekenhart, who then rolled up his sleeves as he approached me.

I had meant to do this alone, and would never have dreamed that Mr.
Ekenhart would help me.

 

“…Because of yesterday.
I decided to help you, as the servants have enough on their hands.”
“Uh, I see.”


“Mmm.
That’s why I didn’t sleep too late last night.”

 

I didn’t know whose idea it was, but I suppose Mr.
Ekenhart had avoided being lectured too long by promising to help me.

That would explain why Ms.
Claire seemed like she still had something to say to him.

“I’ll help too, papa!”

“You too, Liza? Well, it is easy work.”

 

After seeing Mr.
Ekenhart help, Liza volunteered as well.

As I had made quite a lot today, I was grateful.

There was nothing about it that was dangerous, we were just picking herbs.
And so I decided to have Liza help us.

 

“Uhh, you pull them out like this…”
“Okay!”

“That’s wrong, Your Grace.
No, here, like this…”
“…Hmm.
This is rather difficult.
If you’re so good at it Sebastian, maybe you should help…”
“This is your job, Your Grace.
I will instruct you so that you do not make mistakes and cause trouble.”
“Tsk…”

 

I paired with Liza and Sebastian paired with Mr.
Ekenhart as we taught the other and picked the herbs.

As he wasn’t used to such work, Mr.
Ekenhart received strict instructions from Sebastian.


On the other hand, Liza was quite skilled, and she was able to move quickly and with precision.

I suppose it just suited her more…or was it due to age?

 

“Now, please leave the rest to me.”
“Mmm.”
“What are you going to do?”

 

The herbs we had all gathered were separated by type and laid out on a table.

I then used Weed Cultivation to transform their state.

This was one part of the process that no one could help me with.

 

Liza watched me work with wide eyes.

To her, this was all new and exciting.

 

“And that’s it for the Ramogi.
Next is…”
“That’s amazing! How did you do it, papa?”

“This is also an ability of Weed Cultivation.”
“Ohhh!”

 

Liza was very impressed after seeing the Ramogi dry up and turn into powder in an instant.

She was surprised a lot lately.


And since she was so happy, I was glad that I had shown it to her.

 

After that, Sebastian instructed Mr.
Ekenhart on how to wrap them up in cloth.

This was also part of helping me.

Not that I thought about it, who prepared the table and cloth? It must have been Sebastian.
In the end, he also helped us.

 

“Alright, that’s finished now…”
“Finished!”

“Good work, Mr.
Takumi.”

“Ahh…that was very delicate work.”

 

After I finished transforming all of the herbs, I handed them over to Mr.
Ekenhart.

Liza was raising her hands happily and repeating after me… It was pretty cute.

I turned to Mr.
Ekenhart, and though he had Sebastian’s help, he seemed to be struggling a little.

I really didn’t think it was that delicate… Milina and Ms.
Lyra had been able to do it with no trouble.

 

Perhaps Mr.
Ekenhart wasn’t good with his hands?
But he was such a skilled swordsman… Though, I did understand that it was completely different.

If anything, it was probably more to do with his personality, and how he didn’t care much for the details.

 


“So, uh… I will give these to Milina now.
And the rest can go to Mr.
Kalis’s store.”
“Yes, certainly.”

“Mmm, thank you.”
“Thank you, Mr.
Ekenhart.”
“I’ll go too!”
“Wuff!”

 

I took the herbs that would be turned into medicine, and then left the table in order to give them to Milina.

It would be fine to leave the rest to Sebastian.

As the store had plenty of stock, it seemed that Nick would not be visiting today.

And so Liza and Leo followed me as I headed over to where Milina was.

 

As for the herbs we hadn’t gathered, they could be left as they were, so we could see what would happen to them.

 

“Ah, Milina and Ms.
Gelda.”

“Master!”

“Mr.
Takumi.
Is something the matter?”

 

As we walked through the mansion, I saw Ms.
Gelda and Milina making their way towards the drawing room.

When there were no guests there, they sometimes used that room to teach the new servants.
And so I had thought to look there, and I was right.

Milina and Ms.
Gelda were also holding a pestle and mortar.
