How a Hero Lives as a Writer

chapter 62



62 – Aucklia’s festival is more colorful! (3)

No matter how enjoyable a festival is, if it goes on day after day, it becomes a daily routine.

So, to continue the heat of the festival, new firewood must be added.

I decided to prepare cotton candy with that firewood.

ㅡ Using festival flowers as firewood… !

Have you got a sense?

“Did you hear the rumor?”

“Peter, who works at the royal stable, told me?”

“My son told me to eat it since it is free, saying that it is an amazing snack made with fairy threads while living in Byeongseong. .”

“Man, where is the freebie? I will have to pay some money.”

Woong-goo-go-go.

Those who ate cotton candy in the castle spread the news that cotton candy is given out for free here.

Then, a huge crowd was already waiting in line for cotton candy.

I don’t even have a phone, so that’s great….

“Then take care of me.”

“I will do my best!”

I took a seat on the large lot of the theme park, set up a tent, and placed a cotton candy machine.

At first, I tried to make it by installing it inside the building, but in the end it was best to put up a tent outside to distribute it to this many people.

Fortunately, there was a rocket stove, so the tent was relatively warm, so the cotton candy machine wouldn’t be damaged.

“Then please begin.”

“Yes, I understand!”

The chef brought from the royal castle started the cotton candy machine with a very serious expression.

Anyway, I felt very burdened because I was here.

“If you have a problem, tell another member of the staff to find me.”

“Okay!”

I got out of the back of the tent and got into a carriage that had been parked nearby.

“Whoa, it’s so thin outside, but there are a lot of people gathered.”

“I think the sweets are worth it.”

Sir Lewis?

ㅡ Angelica is also a woman, woman!

Huh….

Should I think about dessert later when I have time?

As I thought about that, I looked out of the carriage and saw a cotton candy handed to the first customer.

“This is the fairy thread!”

“Wow!”

“Does it look like a worm’s cocoon?”

After checking people’s reactions, the first customer carefully tore off the cotton candy and put it into his mouth.

That was the moment.

“Oooh!”

That’s right.

As the man screamed and twisted her body intoxicated with the sweet taste, the eyes of the people around her focused on her man.

She must have known someone with the man. She called the man by name and asked what it tasted like. The man pointed at her cotton candy with her trembling hand.

“It tastes like a fairy…. Are you dreaming?”

Fairy taste.

Feels like a dream.

It was a great comment, like a wind catcher who was paid in advance.

People around her made remarks that seemed to ask her man for a little bit, but the man said that he would go to her house and give it to her family, and she disappeared like a dart.

Perhaps the family who tasted that man’s cotton candy will come back to try it again, even if it means standing in line.

“Cotton candy is made of sugar, but does it come out that color?”

“If you add edible pigment, the color changes like that.”

Artisans of the district also make interesting shapes out of multi-colored sugar.

There are times when I actually make flowers, so it was a lot of fun watching them make them.

I think it can be used as an eye candy later when the blade is loosened and the tent can be removed.

As I was thinking about that, I heard a rattling sound, as if someone was knocking on the door.

It seemed that the door of the wagon was shaking and making a noise due to the wind blowing from outside.

The cold air penetrating into the wagon was quite brutal, and the residents waiting in line outside began to worry.

I thought it would be like this, so I put some rocket stoves there, but I don’t know if people catch colds or not….

If I had known it would be like this, I would have done it in a way that I would build up stock in advance and hand it out for a day or so.

“Whoa.”

Every time I do something, there is an immediate reaction, so I feel like I keep missing the little details because I was in such a hurry.

“Do you have any problems?”

“I should have stocked it up ahead of time and opened it later. Then you wouldn’t have to stand in line like this….”

“I don’t think it would make much of a difference even if it was in stock.”

Looking at where Sir Lewis’ eyes were headed, the line continued to grow.

Ah, that’s certainly what Sir Lewis said.

“I think we need something to be considerate of those who are waiting.”

If you go out of the wagon, the weather will make you runny nose.

If you wait to eat cotton candy in this weather, everyone will catch a cold.

Everyone dies like this!

I got off the wagon and called an employee of the company who had been dispatched here.

“We hand out numbered tickets. It is to hand out cotton candy in order to the person who brought the numbered ticket.”

I think this is correct.

A stamp with my signature on top of the numbers should be enough to prevent counterfeiting.

After hearing my explanation, the store employee looked a bit perplexed.

“Leave the price of recycled paper to me.”

“Okay!”

As expected, it’s about money.

The world is made of money.

“I don’t know if everyone is tired of the festival. So let’s get together like this.”

“A lot of time has passed. It’s time to go back to normal.”

It’s everyday….

In this world, if you say winter’s daily life, isn’t it to stay in your room until the winter is over?

Anyway, that’s not a big deal.

If it’s a festival, it should be something a little more special!

In that way, wouldn’t the students who entered the academy stay in Aucklia instead of returning to their parents’ homes even in the winter?

You have to stay here and keep spending money to keep Aucklia’s economy alive.

“Theme park….”

“My lord?”

“Mmm.”

It is not possible to install rides in a theme park like Earth.

Because I don’t have that kind of technology yet.

But the parade car was made, and the action school was made here in Aucklia.

You can use the properly trained people there for the parade….

Wouldn’t it be boring if the parade car just passed by and danced?

“Oh, the song!”

“Are you talking about a song?”

Come to the land of fantasy! A place where happy festivals are held~♪

The land of eternal happiness!

A theme park needs a theme song, but I forgot!

Oh, you have that too?

ㅡ What else is there?

Sapporo Snow Festival, one of the world’s top three festivals!

A new idea comes to mind.

“You have an idea.”

“Yes. If you can’t avoid it, you should enjoy it.”

“What do you mean by that?”

“I thought it would be nice if this country could be enjoyed instead of enduring the winter.”

Sir Lewis blinked in surprise, then smiled lightly.

“If you can enjoy winter, there is nothing more blissful than that.”

A country where even winter is fun.

That’s the next goal.

***

One cotton candy machine couldn’t make enough cotton candy for everyone in Oklia.

So there were times when I couldn’t even see cotton candy.

I begged to explain this to Kruger, and Kruger responded to my request with a slightly more luxurious drink and snacks.

However, with the number of cotton candy machines increasing to three, it was difficult to make enough cotton candy for the residents of Oklea to eat.

So I came up with a way to divert the attention of the residents of Aucklea.

ㅡ A statue made of snow….

This is a specialty of the Sapporo Snow Festival.

I am amazed at its grandeur and sophistication every time I see it.

ㅡ For the people here, it’s trash that falls from the sky.

It was a similar gambit on Earth.

I also hated it because when it snowed, subway service was delayed, cars were blocked, and clothes were dirty.

Especially when it snows in the military….

ㅡ The guy who knows that is a snow statue?

How to succeed if you decorate well!

In fact, a huge number of people gathered.

ㅡ Is it because of cotton candy?

… Gathered anyway!

It was extensively advertised that cotton candy and cash prizes were given to those who achieved excellent results in this snow sculpture contest.

Then everyone rushed to do it, and the number of participants was much greater than I expected.

I think most of the people gathered here thought of snowmen….

“I heard that the painters turned to cartoonists and made a lot of money.”

“There are many comrades who left, asking why the opportunity never came to us.”

“At last we have a chance!”

“This is a competition prepared for us!”

Those who gossip over there and say cliché lines are the ones I saw at the guild that deals with arts and sports the other day.

You must have been a sculptor, right?

ㅡ Isn’t this a bit unfair?

Why would someone you know make such a joke?

There is no perfect equality in this world.

And those people must have felt that it was discrimination when painters turned to cartoonists and went well, so you have to become a leading figure even today.

“Then please start!”

“Yes!”

Eyes are too soft to sculpt.

So it is necessary to press the snow hard, but it was difficult to expect such a machine here.

But there are monsters called knights in this world.

If there was a problem, it was a pity to entrust this task to semi-nobles, but they said it was an honor to be able to help.

Aucklea’s knights were really nice people.

… You should use it more often next time.

ㅡ This disgusting guy.

Pain!

The eye was instantly compressed by the powerful force of the knights, and another eye was put on top of it.

The knights made a huge snowball in an instant, and then moved on to making the next snowball.

Thanks to that, not long after, the 1st Oklia Snow Festival was held.

“Huh, uh uh uh! Isn’t that too high?!”

“It’s a bit cold here!”

“… Can’t I abstain?”

Eye shards aren’t that easy!

“Writer Bright, preparing the song will take a little longer. Are you okay?”

“Ah~ It’s okay. It will be difficult to come out right away. Still, it feels like a fairy tale, so anyone can enjoy it… You know?”

“Yes! I will do my best!”

When I sing, I talk about the shape of my mouth, and rumors about my true identity may circulate.

So it was best to convey the feeling of humming the notes so that it would not be obvious.

Even that, I only remembered the highlight part of Eberland’s theme song, so it wasn’t completely helpful.

That’s why I don’t expect results to come out right away.

Because it has to be completed by the time March starts and the parade car goes around.

“Speciality that can only be felt at Oaklia. That is the selling point.”

In order to utilize winter as a tourism industry, you must not be tied up even in winter.

Maybe we should consider that option as well.

For example, dog sledding in Alaska?

I would also like to introduce something like a ski resort, but it’s a pity that there is no concept of leaving a large empty field in this world.

In the first place, it is necessary to build a bare mountain for the ski resort, but it might give a bad impression to the elves….

ㅡ Why don’t you enjoy this atmosphere for now?

“Should I?”

Now, the residents of Oaklea, who looked tired of the festival, are having fun, forgetting their age.

Isn’t that enough?

I decided to think so.

And time passed….

I don’t want to meet them, but I have to meet them, they appeared in Aucklia.
