218 Quiet story, on the other hand ...

This is the story of the time when the master decided to go to the royal capital.

Fried-san bought the master's escort.

As I recall, he's the one who was beating up Master.......

That's why Aina-san and the others went on a quest, White wandered off somewhere as usual, and Wendy-sama went to clean the house, do laundry, and shop. And I'm allowed to use the alchemy room after helping Wendy-sama, and I devote my days to it!

........It was supposed to be.......

We will now begin the '24th Annual Peaceful Sharing of Masters Conference'.

There was a clap of applause.

In the place where everyone would normally eat together, for some reason the black curtains were drawn at the lighted windows, and candles, rather than magic stones of light in the darkened room, lit up everyone's faces with faint lights.

''Now, let's get down to business suddenly, but there will be a festival in Ains Hale soon. So let's decide who will have a festival date with the master in peace this time as well.

The festival... it's a special date, but we don't have enough time for everyone to get around, you know.

Yes, that's right. Moreover, your husband will be opening a stall this time. I'm afraid that lunchtime will be the only time he will be able to travel around the festival with us.

More unforeseen events could make it impossible to go around.

'Well my Lord is prone to getting into trouble, and it may be difficult for the later in the priority list...'

Hm. I'd like to have the rounds with the Lord...

.........eh.

So, let's decide right here and now without any hindsight.

When Master Wendy said that, I could see everyone gulp and gasp.

That's how serious they must be.

But I don't know why. The more serious it gets, the more the content seems terribly ridiculous....

'Um, can I ask you a question?'

'Yes Mizera. How can I help you?

What is this discussion about...?

When I said this, Master Wendy looked puzzled for a moment and then gave her her usual nice, soft smile.

'This is a meeting to share your master peacefully!

I didn't understand what you meant........

No, it probably means exactly what it reads.........

''This meeting is to decide who gets to have skin-to-skin contact with the lord. For example, when eating out, who will sit next to you. When we go out for a night out, we order who will be in the same room so that we don't fight over who gets to share the same room.

'Of course, if it's a sudden thing, I'll fight for it. The rest of the time, when the Lord decides, we follow it. If it's decided in advance, like this one, then this is how we discuss and decide in advance.

Well, there's a lot more to it than that, so it varies from time to time.

Hm. No one else has the right to sit on White's lap.

This is one way to go. You could have a monopoly on the right to f*ck your husband, couldn't you?　But then the other rights would have a lower priority!

'Also, if you waive that right when it's high priority, you get a point. Those points will last forever, and if you use them in all the right times, you can raise your priority.

.....

What should I do? It's been very, very hotly debated, but I don't know.

Skinship rights?　Priority?　The point?　Used?

...I know it's all very serious, but is this the norm in the world...?

Well, we'll figure it out as we go along.

Yeah, I see. Yes. Well, then, I'll just listen to what I have to say...

I know.

You shouldn't make any judgments on your own when you don't know the full story.

It might be a very constructive and meaningful conversation.

''Then let's each of us have our desired order, snitch and appeal. First things first.....

""Yes!"

Before Wendy-sama could finish, Aina-san, Sorte-san and Renge-san raised their hands vigorously.

'As you know, if you raise your hand in the first place, the other priorities come down, right?

'Of course. But the best has the best chance of getting a date!

'I really want to go somewhere with the Lord. I need to get that time alone!

Okay. Let's call it appeal time, shall we?

Yes, sir!　Last time I was on my way to the Adventurer's Guild with Mizella, Aina, and Sorte, Sorte-tan took his master's arm and made love to him!

Renge-san placed her hand on the desk and raised her other hand vigorously, reaching out with a piquant hand to answer the front.

''Nah........ha!　That's why you told me you didn't notice it!

Of course...!　The festival is coming up soon, but she's so innocently excited.... Isn't she cute, Solte-tan?

Muu Muu Muu...!　It's a wrench... what?

Hmph. Did you notice?　I've only had minimal skin in the game lately myself! To this day!　By the way, Aina took the other hand. In the meantime, I was alert for my surroundings.

'Nah ... but I wasn't alone with you, unlike Sorte, and I didn't give off a sweet air!

Yeah, but.... Hey, White.

Hm. Lately, the Lord and I have been training alone a lot lately. And besides, the baths afterwards...

Gugu...... That was the promise I made to my lord..........

Aina wants to say it, but she can't!　After shivering with an air of "yes", he sat down on a chair without effort.

Yes, sir. It's a good idea. Then, the most entitled person for this festival date is Renge-san.

No objection.

Yay!

Hm. White, as usual, in the middle. It's not enough to give up the right to be on your knees.

'Yes. It's good that White has a higher priority for skin-to-skin contact because he can't have a night out yet. Misela was also........not yet. Do you have a preferred order?

Oh, no I'm good without.

What can I say, I don't think you should go into this heat with a half-hearted feeling like I did.

Yup. Hearing my words, Aina-san and Sorte-san were reviving their expressions in a puff, and this should be fine.

''Yi, is it okay Mizera?''

''Yes. I usually monopolize my husband in the alchemy room.... I've also had the pleasure of working with him when he makes the cotton candy machine.

'Well that's certainly an enviable thing to do but it's a festival, right?

'There's not even room for more. I hope you all enjoy it.

I didn't know there was a meeting like this, and then I'm usually the most alone with my husband.......

The amount of communication with everyone has decreased because of the fact that he's always accompanying me in my alchemy.......

Besides, my feelings aren't even clear yet........

I'm not even going to use my "Only One" vow.......so I'll have to be patient this time.

.........Huh?　This time...?

'Then I'll be number three. The number of days is three, so the first is the first day, the second and third are the second day, and the fourth and fifth are the third day. Of course, if there is any trouble, it will be delayed, so please understand.

Yes! "Hm.

Okay.....

Each of them responded in accordance with their own tensions, and the meeting was over.

The next item on the agenda is. There are still many decisions to be made, such as who will be your master's nighttime companion tonight and the right to skin-to-skin contact with him in the future, as well as the order in which you will bathe in the morning.

'I'm glad Freed has undertaken to do it.... We can talk about it at length today.

'Yeah. It's a shame about the order of the festivities, but other than that, let's attack it without a hitch.

''Um, I'll be joining you next time I have to do it now or I won't be able to make the potion in time...''

I haven't even finished my quota for today, and thankfully the Adventurer's Guild has placed more orders for me, so I want to get tomorrow's quota done.

''I see..... I understand. Then I'll look forward to working with you next time.''

Yes. Well then.....

The light felt a little blinding as I stepped out of the pitch-black room.

There seemed to be a battle going on behind me to win the right to skinship with my husband, which was quickly becoming heated from behind.

Really, they all love their husbands........

The reason.........well, I know exactly why.

Even so, you're still very popular........

Is he with a girl I don't know in King's Landing right now?

No way. You're surrounded by such a good group of girls of good caliber, and you wouldn't be making a girl elsewhere, would you?

...You don't, do you?

..............Okay. Let's go for another day of alchemy.

I can't wait to get up to the level and learn to make potions more efficiently.

I don't know right now, but I need to grow a lot more, a lot more, so that one day I won't be in trouble when I want to attend that meeting.
