Activity Log of the Sparrow's Inn ~ Records of the Enma Pavilion's Prosperity ~ : Section 2
Section 2 - The conveyance of light feelings
Sparrow
This here is the "Sparrow Room"-chirp. Please take it easy-chirp. It has become the shared room of Guda-sama and Mashu-sama-chirp.
For sleeping there is a futon to the left-chirp, I will line it up-chirp. For those who are weak to the cold we offer hot water bottles at the feet-chirp.

At any rate...
Mashu
Yes, the landscape is wonderful, Senpai! Please look, you can see the form of the mountain from the window with unbroken view!
Tamamo no Mae
Hello~! The neighbors from the "Jade Room" next door have come to greet you♡
Mashu
It's Tamamo-san and the others. Yes, please-!
Tamamo no Mae
Yeees, I'm coming iiiin! Wow, that's a corner room for you, the view certainly is different.
Tomoe
It's a bit wider than our room. I thought Benienma-sensei hates humans but in reality that's not true, right?
Kiyohime
... An onsen ryokan ...Nourishing dishes... Sightseeing spots where there's nothing special to do...No chance nothing is going to happen...Fufufu... How lovely this is...
Tamamo
Yes there, Kiyohime-san. This time let's get truly serious. Not only for us, it's also a matter of chastity for Master and Mashu-san.
Gordolf
This is the "Sparrow Room"? It's me, Gordolf. I'm coming in everyone. Hoho. This room is also charming. In japanese Ryokan[1] there is warmth.
Diarmuid (Saber)
This is good. Everyone is here. Of course it was the correct answer to come here, my Lord.
Fionn
Ah, first of all, the japanese hot springs which I heard off...Is what I thought, but the hot springs are being blocked off.
I came to hold a strategy meeting to rethink. It seems there is something wrong in this ryokan.
Mashu
Everyone seems to have come to take a look at the room. Um, Certainly ... it's like this!
Mashu
Here, it may be coarse and low-grade[2] but I brew tea with the teapot available in the room.

1 Thank you
2 In the tea house are also manjuu...!
1+2 Gordolf
Umu. A sharp-minded Demi-Servant. It's something I want my maids also to learn.
No, that was not something to relax about! Things are serious everyone! What should we do!? What would be fine to do!? No matter how talented a commander, this land is a foreign country! Moreover such an Onsen Ryokan, the first pleasure of my life!
What to do, my feelings of appreciation are accumulating, I couldn't even imagine having them!

1 Tamamo-san, do you understand?
2 Tomoe-san, do you understand?
2 Tomoe
... I'm also at a loss. Tamamo-san, do you have any wisdom?
1+2 Tamamo
Indeed. I may be an outsider with no confidence, but... First of all, like Benienma-sensei was saying, should we do some work from here on? We are neither a professional for Ryokan, nor craftsmen[3]. Until then, let's start by finding work that we can do with confidence, like we have done till now.
During that time, let's learn more about the Onsen and Ryokan's construction and internal workings.
Yes, I think that is necessary. I handed over the Yukata of Enmatei[4] to Beni-Sensei. It's an emergency but with my shiki power, curse and also love I carefully repaired that gem♡
Kiyohime
Ah, that's unfair Tamamo-san! Me too! Because my feelings are also included!
That Kimono is my scale itself while you wear it, we are one body, Master~♡
Fionn
Hahaha. How reliable, it's nice to have love! Are you not loved, Master? Well then, one more gift from me.
In reality, earlier, I met some sparrows in the corridor. "Don't you have a job?" I asked and heard interesting stories from them. This Enmatei is managed by the landlady and the apprentices, the nine sparrows, but recently demon monkeys have done bad things and it seems there is not enough manpower.
Specifically, there are 3 jobs.
- Mountain Fortune, we work to fetch ingredients called river's fortune.
- Repair of the ryokan, we work to fetch wood resources, such as firewood.
- We work to drive back the demon monkeys doing evil everywhere. How is that?
Right now, we can start with these three jobs can't we?
Diarmuid
That's fine. Exterminating the demon monkeys is the warriors territory. This time's dilemma is caused by my body's virtue.
For example, even if I get annihilated unpaid I am willing to fight. Yes.... this is a true indefinable trial.
Just kidding.
Everyone
....
Diarmuid
...I'm ashamed. This Diarmuid can't bring out the same sharpness as Móralltach's with words.
Fionn
Talking about this effort is my territory. Twin sword Diarmuid has too much over eagerness. But, I have a high opinion of that fighting spirit. If we exterminate the demon monkeys, the forest in the back will be good.
Master, please do not hesitate to use Diarmuid. And of course me too.
Because I'm also responsible for the fuss.
Gordolf
.... Very well. I will leave the field work to you, Guda.
I'll look around Enmatei, and get a handle on the internal workings. Since I've got something I'm concerned about.
Mashu
I understand. You are acting on your own.
In which case, let's immediately change into the work clothes of Enmatei and go outside, Master.
[1]If you don't know what it is, please look it up here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryokan_(inn)
[2]Mashu here says "粗茶ですが" which is a respectful expression and lowers the position of oneself compared to the others ... at least as far as I know/found out.
[3]Could also mean "We are professional for a Ryokan, but no craftsmen", I wasn't quite sure about this ... if it's the phrase mentioned here it could hint at summer 2016 where they had to manage an island.
[4]Enma Pavilion, I left it as Enmatei since I prefered it that way, same as with Onsen Ryokan
