Hard Work Will Never Betray Me - CH 59

We had been riding in the ” Buffalo” for a few hours, and  passed about two-thirds of the way to our destination, and  the sun had set. We stopped the “Buffalo” at a flat spot beside the road and took a break.

After that, not only earth lizards, but also goblins, slimes, green boas, and orcs appeared and were defeated by Lily to add to our inventory. Thanks to this, there was no shortage of ingredients for dinner.

“I’ve never killed so many  living creatures  in my life.

“Well, they’re monsters , aren’t they?”

If you kill a pet animal, or even a monster that attacks people, the psychological impact will not be that great.

“I don’t like the thought of a duchess who can kill monsters with no hesitation.”

“What!　You said it, vixen!

“You’re a petulant fox!”

“Ahhhh, —-!　I don’t care what people think!　I’m not going to let you get away with this! I’m going  report this  and  put pressure on the workshop!”

“Don’t, it’s interference in internal affairs. ……

I can only see a future of conflicts, like an external lord putting pressure on the workshop of another territory. It’s not wartime, so I’d like Lily to think a little more about that .

Also, Lily is not very flat. It’s a cute size, but I like it.

“Lily, I like you   that way you are

I’m not really arguing with her, but I feel sorry for her if she remains in a bad mood, so I follow your suit .”

“Really?　You’re not lying?””

“What am I supposed to do, lie to Lily?”

“…… Mmm-hmm!　Okay, I forgive you.”

I don’t know where the tsundere went, but Lily is so happy to be with me that she’s completely delirious. Thanks to her, I succeeded in appeasing her without difficulty. Cute.

” I can explain it.”

“I’m going to punish you.”

I walked behind the pouting Mei and grabbed her by her two assertive, lush mountain ranges. It was a super Wonderful Happy Excellent Utopia, to say the least, with a combination of sinking softness and bouncing youthful elasticity. It was a super Wonderful Happy Excellent Utopia, to say the least.

“Hee-ahh!”

She jumped up in a panic, her face unusually red . She jumped away from me, hugging her chest with both arms, shivering and opening and closing her mouth repeatedly.

“Are you really twelve years old?”

This is a weapon now.

“Ha, ha. ……””

“What?”

“Hal—– idiot !

This is the first time in the nearly six years sincet Mei  has spoken out  bad of  me, I thought as she abused me for no good reason.

✳︎

“Fix my mood, will you?”

“Hmph.”

While Lilly was preparing dinner, I kept talking to Mei  sulky back. She usually talks to me on her own, but this time she didn’t respond at all. I was troubled

“You didn’t like me rubbing your chest?”

No, I think she usually doesn’t like it, but that’s just the way she is.

“I don’t know!

….. Oh, maybe it’s because I told Lily that I only like her?

“Shh!　I don’t know!”

That’s right. She is  cute .

“I said that because I felt bad for her. I really like you too.”

Her ears twitched. Mei’s ears, which are slightly more pointed than those of humans, reacted.

“Lilly is a precious girl friend that Mei  can say whatever she wants. But if you’re too mean to her, she might not like you.”

“…… I don’t like that.

“You have to be nice to her. Besides, I’m not going to leave  you just because I  have  fiancée.

I guess May is messing around with Lily because she’s worried that she might  take  me awy . If that’s the case, I have to relieve her of it.

Besides, she’s so close to the legitimate son of a great aristocrat. If she doesn’t become my wife in the future, the situation around her will not allow it. That’s why Mei’s fears are confirmed to be unfounded.

Fortunately, both Mei and I have positive feelings for each other, so we are unlikely to encounter any problems that tend to occur between men and women with different statuses.

“Hal………”

“Mei?”

“I love ……………!”

“Muggah!”

So don’t hug me so suddenly. I can’t breathe. …….

✳︎

“So, are we done talking?　It seems like you guys have been making fun of each other a lot.

“The food Lily made looks delicious.

“Don’t play dumb. I was watching you.”

“I’ll make it up to you later.”

“Well, I’m your fiancee , aren’t I?　I’ll forgive you for being so open-minded!”

Lily is so cute when she can’t be honest. I kissed her lightly on the cheek so that Mei wouldn’t see it .

“Ah!　:

“It’s so hot!　I’m sorry for scaring you. Don’t shake the ladle, it’s hot!:

Lily cries out, holding her cheeks and turning red. It’s not that she’s uncomfortable, she’s simply happy and embarrassed because she was kissed .

But Lily was cooking. Thanks to her, I got a few drops of boiling water on me, but this was also my fault, so to speak. I’ll take it in stride. ……

By the way, I’ve become quite a sketchy guy. I couldn’t have imagined such a development in my previous life. I’m glad I was reincarnated.

✳︎

The “Buffalo” is an excellent machine that can also be used as a bed if the chair is folded down!

“Huh!　Wow, it’s so fluffy!”

Lilly and Mei are back to normal, but it’s almost  ti to sleep . Lily had better go home early or Her  father  would be worried about her.

“I love it. I want to take  stay over tomorrow.

Perhaps because she knows this, she lounges in bed, looking as if she wants to leave it behind.

“It will be fun to lying down together .

It’s kind of like a sleeper express. It’s not the same as a night train, though, because it’s only during the day that you can lie down and move.

“I’ll wake up early tomorrow and come here!　Good night, Hal , Mei .

“Good night, Lily.”

“Good night, Lily.”

Then Lily went back to the Duke’s house with transfer magic. ‥                                                                                                                                          i  just noticed, Lily just  call Mei by name? Until now,  she only called  her a female fox, a thief cat, you, a dwarf girl, and so on.

This means that the two of them have become even closer. …… female friendship. I like that kind of thing. I don’t have any male friends, so I admire that.

“Now, let’s go to bed.

“Wait, Mei. You’re not going to sleep without taking a bath, are you?”

“What?　No matter what, the Buffalo doesn’t have a bath.

Mei looked back at me with a look that said, “Why did you suddenly do something so outrageous? But as an ex-Japanese, I can’t believe she would sleep without taking a bath!

“If I don’t have one, I’ll make one!　Mei , can you use water magic?

“No, I can’t!　I can only use earth magic !

“Let’s boil some drinking water from the inventory!　’”

“Yes. But if we use earth magic to make the bathwater, what about the fuel?”

“I’ll make the wood.”

With my physical abilities pushed to the limit, I was able to cut down a tree and turn it into firewood in an instant. That’s only  took 30 seconds!

“Then, I put the chopped wood into my inventory!　And with 0% humidity, the elapsed time accelerates!

Raw wood is explosive and difficult to burn ,  but if   to use the inventory to roll and dry it, it’s ready to use. It’s just firewood. Hahaha!

“What a great passion. ……”

“The bath is the only thing I can’t give up.

The   japanese part of my heart is screaming at me. I’m not going to compromise on the bath. …… .

After that, when I tried to go in slowly by myself, Mei also broke in and we had to go in together. She was so shy about having her breasts squeezed, but she didn’t mind being seen naked?　I don’t understand her.

Also, May’s breasts were amazing. It was especially bad when I saw it  .

Let’s just say it was hard to handle without being caught after Mei had fallen asleep.
