After a full day of meetings, we decided to use the plan that the majority approved.
What I recommended was invasion.
Historically, there are several ways to revitalize a country, but this is the simplest and most effective method.
It was rejected though.
"We don't know what kind of fault they might find later."
"Heeeng."
Among various opinions, the plan that was passed was to expand the city and extend the business.
"First, we should expand the business we're currently running and systematically reorganize the city."
Although expansion up to the 5th area was completed, only areas 1 and 2 were actually open to outsiders.
Areas 3 to 5 were zones where monsters lived, and there was a proposal to open these areas and make individuals responsible for any accidents that occur within them.
"Hunting... no, travelers who suffer unfortunate accidents can't be helped."
Ran, the Silver Fox Clan twin sister, said with a grin.
She got hit on the head by her older sister and was grumbling, but it's not a bad plan.
It seems difficult to use the Colosseum for a while, so it's hard to satisfy the monsters' desires, but isn't this method okay?
If we place prettier and rarer monsters as the areas progress to stimulate adventurousness...
"Not bad, right? Let's adopt that method for now, and what other plans are there?"
"I'll explain the plan to expand the city."
The dwarf representative stood up and began to explain.
The content was to construct new facilities around the Golden City of Eldorado.
He said it would be good to create various facilities to attract the footsteps of travelers and otherworld residents.
"For details, we're thinking of making what Yuna called an amusement park...?"
He took out a blueprint from his subspace and showed it to us, and it looked quite plausible.
Everything from carousels to gyro drops exists.
"We'll use magic stones for power..."
As everyone's eyes were shining during the long explanation, Rang, the Silver Fox Clan twin sister, raised her hand.
"It's a good idea, but we lack manpower. The Silver Fox Clan has its limits."
Most of the work is being done by the Silver Fox Clan, but their numbers are insufficient.
Is there any good solution?

Numerous construction projects were underway around the Golden City of Eldorado.
Players trying to raise their contribution were contributing to the city in various ways.
"Hey, Kim! Help me here!"
"Coming now!"
A player helping the dwarves with work.
"We're short on goods here, so for the next delivery date..."
"More than that, please raise the price! There's nothing left at this rate!"
"Oh? The neighboring city would buy it for even cheaper than this..."
Even merchants supplying various goods to the Golden City of Eldorado.
They were raising their contribution in various ways.
Among them, the most helpful person was Catlleya, the guild master of our Frey Guild.
Rea unni was teaching me work with her extensive document processing experience.
As she was patting my shoulder after a long period of paperwork, I heard a voice.
"By the way, Yuna. You haven't forgotten our contract, right?"
"What do you mean? I don't remember."
As I was avoiding her gaze and fidgeting shamelessly, she stared at me intently.
"Call me un.ni."
"I think there's a document missing here?"
"Un.ni."
She was pressuring me by bringing her face close, but I couldn't think of a way out.
A way to escape this situation.
With a bleeding heart, one word came out of my mouth.
"R-Rea unni."
"......"
My face turned red like a ripe apple and I lowered my head, but there was no reaction.
I slightly raised my head and looked at her.
"Y-you're too cute!"
"Hyaak!?"
She hugged me joyfully and asked me to call her that once more, but twice is too much.
She whispered while hugging me, saying let's move forward one step at a time, but it's driving me crazy.
What kind of misunderstanding is this!?
At that moment, Sasha unni of the Frey Guild entered, breaking down the door.
"Leader! I've finished the task you... W-w-what are you doing!?"
She came in with a bright expression to report that she had finished the assigned work, but when she saw our situation, she blushed and made a fuss.
Smiling in this situation, I answered.
"Our Yuna called me un.ni."
"......"
As soon as she heard those words, she approached me with big strides.
"Call me that too!"
"Twice a day is too much."
"You can do it!"
"Y-you're too close!"
She was so close I could feel her breath, it was burdensome.
That day, I was only released after calling them unni.
Speaking based on inherited memories is no problem, but it's embarrassing.
Extremely embarrassing!
As I was fanning myself with my hand to cool down, she showed me a document.
"This document looks a bit strange?"
"Huh? Let me see."
It was a document listing the payment for goods supplied by a merchant group, but the amount didn't match.
Are there players trying to cheat even in this situation!?
This is too much.
"We won't deal with this merchant group anymore. And please contact the information guild."
They tried to rip me off, but if I just let it go, I'm a pushover.
These days, once a pushover, always a pushover.
Is it because there are many people who maliciously take advantage of kindness?
Pushing aside my bitter feelings, I continued with the paperwork.
From costs incurred in the city to the increasing incidents and accidents these days.
There were conflicts because many travelers were trying to see rare monsters or hunt them secretly.
Although we notified in advance that all responsibility lies with the players, there are many strange players these days who don't even read it and blame others, giving me a headache.
Should I just expel them all?
After finishing a full night of document organizing and stretching, an enormous amount of documents arrived with a knock.
"I've brought new documents."
"......"
Don't tell me the documents I did were just one day's worth...?
Our Rea unni... no, u-unni who always does this seems amazing.
"Have you always been doing this? You're amazing, Rea unni."
"I-it's nothing."
She blushed and covered her face with both hands after hearing me call her unni, this is my chance.
"Then I'll go check on the construction situation!"
"Okay. ...What? Where are you going!? Come back right now!"
"I'm counting on you! Rea unni!"
I came out of the office almost running away and started patrolling from area 1.
The sight of numerous players and monsters living mixed together is unfamiliar.
Originally, this game was a typical RPG where players hunt monsters to grow.
It wasn't a game like 'Animal Crossing', but now it looks like one.
Somehow, it feels heartwarming.
Should I expand the territory more after clearing this main scenario quest?
Changing the entire Arcana continent.
Into a world where humans and monsters live together in harmony.
To do that, conflict with the Avalon Empire and Arcadia is inevitable.
Those two countries don't treat monsters as living beings.
They use them as slaves or experimental subjects.
That's probably why they tried to attack our city.
To obtain cheap labor or rare materials. Or maybe...
"Kyuung."
"Hm? It's nothing."
Did it read my troubled thoughts?
Our Yong-yong looking at me with worried eyes.
When did it start?
Our Yong-yong comforting me.
Was it from the beginning?
While stroking Yong-yong, I passed through area 1 and was entering area 2.
While area 1 was mainly commercial, area 2 was being constructed mainly with cultural facilities.
They were building various amusement facilities and parks where people can relax comfortably.
Areas 3 to 5 were residential areas with houses built to suit the habits of various monsters.
The buildings had a European atmosphere, but the interiors were different.
When I opened the doorknob of the building at the very front and went inside, I saw a wide meadow.
A green field was spread out, and I heard the sound of something running from afar.
An item that can create a meadow inside a building.
[Create Space Space!]
A tool that can create your own space.
It's an expensive item, but it couldn't be helped.
As there are numerous monsters, their living environments are different.
Since I brought them this far, I should do at least this much.
