Empty Stomach

After walking on the lake’s water, we return to the lake shore and sit down in the shade.

Thanks to the soft grasses growing here, we don’t need to worry about the hardness of the ground. I’m grateful for the natural cushion made by nature. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Fuuh, I had such a valuable experience」

「I never thought of walking on top of the water using Shield as footing」

Viscount Dole and Tickle are talking contentedly.

I have also walked in the air with Shield before, but that was also my first time trying to walk on water.

I came up with it from Torr and Asmo’s prank, but it was really fun so I’m just a little bit thankful for that.

「Gregor-sama, here is a handkerchief」

「Ooh, thank you」

Tickle handed a handkerchief to Viscount Dole - as his forehead is covered in sweat.

Although it has become cooler, it is still summer right now. You will slowly sweat if you move around outside.

「It’s hot!」

「That’s because you were running around happily」

「It will be great if I take a bath with cold water 」

It was fun being able to walk on water, but maybe it’s because we were playing tag after that we sweat a lot.

I wouldn’t want to play tag if it will result to this much sweat.

Looking at us dripping with sweat, Tickle takes out another handkerchief from her pouch.

However it was just one handkerchief, so it won’t be enough for the three of us. Even if she gave it to us, then we will use the same handkerchief. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

Perhaps Tickle also hesitate in giving it to us, she stiffened with the handkerchief in her hand.

「Aah, it’s all right. We will cool ourselves with magic, Tickle can use that handkerchief」

「Ha, haa」

Tickle tilted her head, I guess she doesn’t understand my meaning of ‘cool ourselves with magic’.

While we are talking like that, the sitting Torr and Asmo call out to me and asks 「Al, do the usual thingー」, and so I cast Wind magic. Then a soft breeze drifts around us.

「Ah, so it’s Wind magic」

「Hmm, it feels good」

Tickle and Viscount Dole’s expressions loosened because of the soft wind blowing as if they caresses their skin.

「Haaー, such a nice wind」

「A perfect wind control as usual」

Torr and Asmo sprawled out on the ground as if they are enjoying the wind fully.

「Fufufu, I studied pleasant wind conditions, you know」

It’s not necessarily good just because the wind is cool.

No matter how hot it is, it’s painful if you just make a strong wind that will make you shut your eyes, it will only annoy people. I think having such a gentle breeze that feels like it caresses your skin at such a time when you relax under the shade like this at regular intervals is better.

「Indeed, not only the Alkinoko earlier, walking on the lake, and the magic Alfried-sama uses in his everyday life are rooted in such situations, huh」

「It is such a convenient and useful ability. So it will be a loss if we don’t actively use it to enrich our daily life?」

Even if magic is useful in battle, it doesn’t mean that it can only be used like that.

Rather than fighting, there are far more situations spent in your daily life where you can use magic like this. In that case, I think it is far more useful for us to study the method to use magic to enrich our lives like this.

「Hahahahah! That is also right!」

「I think I understood a little how Alfried-sama is so skillful in magic. I will also have to practice my magic by using it in my daily life......!」

Tickle clenches her fist as she reveals an enthusiastic expression on her face again.

However, that will be a little more than she can chew at the moment. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「There’s no need to be that worked up.  For example, when both of your hands are occupied with the laundry, you can open the room’s door with Psychic. Or you can attract a faraway object to yourself using Psychic when you’re just lying down and finding it troublesome to get up. It’s okay to use it when you feel like you want to make it easier for yourself」

「I, I see, to make it easier for me, huh?」

「Right, I think a magician should be idler 」

Oh well, I think each person has their own preferences and way of doing things, but if you try to be more skillful and use it in your daily life, I think this method is the most natural and shortest way.

◆

While I was taking a break and having a conversation about magic with Tickle, I heard a 「Gugyuurururu」 sound from beside me.

「……I’m hungry」

Looking at the source of the sound, Asmo unashamedly said that while still lying down.

Looking at the sun, it is probably just before sunset. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

I’m also getting hungry since we were walking around in the forest and didn’t eat anything since lunchtime.

「I’m also feeling a bit peckish, want to eat something?」

「Let’s eat grilled Alkinoko along with the fruits and nuts we gathered in the forest!」

「I second that」

Torr - who was lying on the ground - says as he got up while pushing his body from the ground.

Asmo also seems to agree with that idea as there was no longer a trace of his previous frail-like expression.

He stands up straight and is waiting impatiently.

「How about Gregor and Tickle?」

「Hm, I would like to take part in that if you all don’t mind」

Viscount Dole honestly nod maybe because he had become a little hungry, Tickle also reservedly nodded.

「Sure! Then, Asmo takes out the Libra」

「Heck no, buzz off! I’m gonna eat this at home!」

If he were to take it out here, then he wouldn’t know what kind of thing Torr will do to take advantage of that. Asmo also knows that it’s worth it.

「Even if you bring it home, Sheila and Dorothea-bachan will find out about it eat」

「……it’s okay. I will hide it so it won’t be found out」

The moment Asmo said that, Torr grins.

「Hou? But I know that Asmo has Libra fruit, y’know? And so, I can expose it to them anytime」

「You sneaky jerk!?」

For Torr, this timing is the ideal opportunity to get back at Asmo for taking advantage of the earlier situation to take the Libra fruit. Even threatening Asmo like that, truly a cunning guy as usual. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Now then, choose. Whether your family eats it, or you take it out here and we can enjoy it together!」

「Kuh, this jerk! So you suggest eating the gathered materials in anticipation of this! Even though you’re just Torr, so cocky!」

Asmo cursed Torr while looking frustrated, but it was obvious he was desperate.

「Gunununu, fine I’ll share」

「Hehe, you should have said that from the start. Or rather, that was gathered by me anyway」

Torr takes the Libra fruit presented by Asmo while smiling vulgarly.

A guy who matches well with delinquent lines as usual, that Torr.

「U, umm, we are fine, there is no need to go that far.....」

「Ah, it’s okay. The two of them are just messing around with each other」

「You better remember this. Next time something happened, I will tell on you」

「You’re the one who started this all, didn’t you?」

Torr and Asmo are exchanging such a disturbing conversation while I was explaining the situation to Tickle beside me.

Oh well, those two should be fine. They say that grudges over food are terrifying, but both of them can be said to be paying for their own mistakes.

「Hey, then let’s go to Al’s My Home」

「That’s also not bad, but we have already at such a beautiful place with a view of the lake anyway, let’s just eat here」

We have such a beautiful lake in front of us. Why don’t we just take it easy while enjoying the scenery since we’re already here?

Besides, there are a lot of cooking utensils, seasonings, and ingredients in My Home, so I feel like eating between meals won’t be enough anymore. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

「Hmー, well, guess eating here is not bad」

「We can also catch some fish here, so it’s okay」

After we have decided to eat by the lake, we start to immediately prepare cooking.

「Then, let’s cut the Alkinoko immediately」

After saying that, Torr takes out the Alkinoko from the basket.

The captured Alkinoko then is cut at the vital part at the lower part of its trunk.

Doing this will put an end to the Alkinoko and it won’t be able to move.

I don’t know why. But monsters are such strange creatures.

Torr uses a knife and cut off the legs first.

The fallen legs are those that can be said to be the most delicious part of Alkinoko.

「Torr, Asmo. Can you give the legs to Gregor and Tickle, since they have never eaten them before?」

「Fine by me. We can eat them anytime anyway」

「……okay」

Asmo looked a little disappointed at that, but he still agreed to it.

Let’s follow up by letting them eat meals with different ingredients next time.

「Mu? Isn’t that the most delicious part?」

「Yeah, that’s why I want you to taste it」

「The three of you, thank you」

They had especially come to play at Koryatt village after all. I’d be happy if they can have happy memories as they spend their time here even if it is a little and left an impression on them. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
