47 – Pet saintess and the unsmiling hero (1)

“Drink… ”

A saintess with a big smile after taking a bite of sweet pumpkin soup.

Today’s one was made with a lot of care.

Filled with autumn sweet pumpkin, whipped cream made from sheep’s milk, caramelized fennel and shallots, it boasts a thick, full sweetness and creamy flavor…

Usually, the appetizer of the course is the soup,

This in itself is no different from a complete dish.

It would have been much better if the course could be configured with the main on it, but unfortunately, it was impossible due to various conditions,

This, freshly baked baguette bread, and balsamic sauce will suffice for one meal.

In addition, if you warm up the eggplant and pumpkin ratatouille you made yesterday and serve it,

There is nothing to blame for a picnic lunch in autumn when the sun is shining pleasantly and the breeze is blowing like these days.

“Pun!”

Pelicana, too, drank the soup from the small bowl in front of her and looked around and liked it.

Even so, I thought it wouldn’t be good to give food with liver suitable for humans, so I deliberately lowered the concentration for Ferrica and dragons.

It seems that he almost became a chicken at one time, but he seems to be spending his days in peace and luxury these days.

I’m a bit envious when I see him walking around in good health without worrying about anything.

I also feel more at ease.

This side has to be practiced every day in order not to fall behind the talented party members.

“… Porter-nim, take a bite too!”

“yes?”

Before I could say yes or no, the saintess took a spoonful and put it in my mouth.

I quickly put it in my mouth before the soup dripped onto my clothes.

I also have my own bowl, hand, and spoon, but I’m not sure if there’s a reason to do this.

She is truly a saint with no sense of hygiene.

I even kissed the saintess as an adult… Now you don’t have to worry about oral bacterial exchange.

… Somehow, these days, the saintess feels like she has become a pet.

Don’t you ask for food whenever you have a chance, don’t you dare to put food in my mouth?

They want to be petted for no reason, and cling to them for no reason.

Don’t you want to go for a walk together for no reason? Flower viewing, moon viewing.

If it’s a saint who doesn’t care about the atmosphere around her, it’s like a saint.

I’m concerned because Lindsay’s reaction is not as good as other people’s,

The saintess didn’t seem to care at all.

Well, should I say it’s better than the past when I planned something useless like NTR?

I received an oath that seemed to contain her sincerity, but since I still have no idea when and where it will bounce…

In the end, I had no choice but to accept the saintess’ pampering.

***

‘… Obviously, you should be happy now… ‘

Lindsay was immersed in her thoughts as she put the soup into her mouth.

As I watched the entire cooking process from the side,

She could clearly feel that today’s Caiman’s cuisine had a lot of care.

Not just today, but always.

Even though it would be hard and difficult just with high-intensity training every day,

In addition to that, Caiman used to earn fresh cooking ingredients or money as a reward while solving simple requests.

Seeing that, Lindsay was envious of his innate stamina, but

On the one hand, I couldn’t help but feel gratitude for Kaiman’s heart that thought of the party so much.

It makes me feel fortunate to go on an adventure with him.

So, Lindsay thought, it was right to enjoy the meal happily.

In terms of reason, I thought so.

However, the taste was not good.

When I suddenly came to my senses, I saw two people who were engaged in a sweet act of affection.

“… Porter, if there is something going, there must be something coming, right?”

“… yeah yeah.”

Pretending not to be able to win against the whining Seria, Caiman scooped up a spoonful of soup, placed it in his hand, and put it into the saintess’s mouth.

Even though they seemed ticklish, I felt a deep, young affection in them.

I thought they were a handsome man and a fairy as if they were drawn in a picture.

‘It suits you well.’

It was something to think about.

In fact, Lindsay thought so. I was rooting for both of them in my heart.

There was no time to dig into the heart of thinking of friends.

However, if you want to make eye contact with Caiman, your head will be lowered as if electricity has been turned on.

It was Lindsay, who was eating again the tasteless soup.

She still didn’t know the identity of the emotion that was surging up inside her inexplicably.

‘… I feel sorry for myself. Even if you focus on becoming stronger, it’s not enough… ‘

Lindsay had sworn in her heart dozens of hundreds of times that she would walk this path no matter what hardships lay ahead of her.

However, he did not know that the road that unfolded in front of him would be like this.

‘… Caiman is a good friend. When a friend meets a good person and starts dating, I should sincerely support her.

Ahh… ‘

Lindsay shook her head to get the thoughts out of her head.

What bothers Lindsay especially these days is,

One day, to find Caiman and Seria, who do not appear no matter how long they wait,

Everyone went to Seria’s room together.

He had accidentally overheard the voices of Caiman and Seria enjoying an affair in front of the door that could not be opened.

The words I heard at that time were stuck in my brain and I couldn’t erase them.

‘… They said it would break, die… But, like that… ‘

Seria’s words at that time could be seen as suffering at first glance, but

Even while listening, I couldn’t get rid of the feeling that something was heated.

In addition, looking at her attitude, which has changed dramatically these days, the experience of that day must have had a key influence.

In other words… It would have been very pleasant,

Inevitably, Lindsay came to think that way too.

And when those thoughts start biting their tails one by one,

I feel a sharp pain somewhere in my chest,

It was Lindsay these days who struggled in the core of emotions that she couldn’t confide in anyone.

“… what’s the matter? Doesn’t it suit your taste?”

Lindsay lifted her head and looked at Caiman’s face.

It is the look in the eyes of a friend who still thinks deeply about him without wavering.

Feeling guilty, Lindsay averted Caiman’s gaze.

“… no. delicious.”

“Yes. caiman. I want to make you my personal chef.”

One bowl had already been emptied, and Elaisia, who had the second bowl, helped by the side.

Without even paying attention to the relationship between Seria and Caiman,

Looking at the face of Eleasia, who is enjoying the food without worrying about it…

‘… Me too, it would be better if I ate delicious food like that… ‘

Once again, Lindsay was drowning in a pathless swamp of self-loathing.

***

Lindsay’s reaction these days is strange.

It’s a thought I keep thinking about, but it’s obviously weird.

Other people seemed awkward at first, but gradually changed to a familiar attitude.

Lindsay is increasingly trying not to mix with me and avoids my gaze.

When our eyes meet, I keep bowing my head,

It might be harsh to say this, but while looking at her, her eyes seemed to have died somewhere in her heart.

… So, looking at Lindsay’s reaction these days…

Something more, I’m starting to feel that way.

In the meantime, I’ve been busy trying to avoid Lindsay being NTRed,

Rather, with Lindsay these days…

A person who has been subjected to NTR, as if the thread that supported them has been severed,

It feels like being ruined.

So I…

Didn’t I enter the development I was trying to avoid?

Or, in this case, could it be said that it is closer to BSS than NTR?

I feel like I’m going to lose my mind with the same meaningless thoughts.

While those useless thoughts penetrated my head like a virus, Lindsay, who had finished wearing her armor and helmet, greeted me.

It means you are ready to fight.

Aside from the obvious oddity of current conditions,

When sparring, Rinze is like a well-forged blade that is flawless in itself.

Of course you are better than me,

Every time I bump into it with all my might, I sharply dodge or spill it,

In addition, it suggests a direction in which I can become even better.

I could always feel such consideration for the sword that Lindsay extended towards me.

It’s a tricky problem, but one that you can find a solution to if you try. Always presented such a problem.

In addition, I am getting stronger every day, so I can’t help but work hard every day.

What spurred me, who was only interested in cooking, was definitely a sparring opponent called Lindsay.

It felt different from having a map sparring with an extremely strong opponent like the princess.

So, you can also say that Lindsay is also my precious teacher.

It’s not the time to think about it.

I stretched lightly and checked the condition of the armor,

I fixed my posture and faced Lindsay with a wooden sword.

“You must win! Porter!”

As always, the cheering sound of a saintess visiting Dalian.

At those words, Lindsay’s helmet flinched.

… So, if you say something like that, it seems to have a bad effect on Lindsay.

I don’t think you know how to talk like that.
