219 Valentine Day ＳＳ

It all started with a certain drifter girl.

You see, Valentine's Day is a day to give a gift to the person you love, along with chocolate. But in this other world, chocolate is very precious. So I think we should give them a gift of sweetness.''

She is a drifter, and her story is listened to with great interest by the maidens in love.

Whose sweetness do you think your lovers will like?

Since I've said all that, the maidens in love cannot stop. No, they couldn't stop.

I finished my quota for today, and now I'm going to take a nap.......but the sun came out long ago and was doing its best to show that it was already day, not morning.

'Day and night........that's not good in this world either.......'

Since everyone's lives are naturally geared toward the daytime, if we continue like this, we might end up living at cross-purposes.

If I am not sleepy and everyone else is asleep, I will have nothing to do but go to work.

Oh, the horror.

"Oh, master. Good morning.

Uh ... good morning?

Mm. Already........did you stay up all night again?　Couldn't the delivery date have been longer?

Well, I got carried away. But it's all over now.

''That would be........good, but....... What should we do?　Would you like to have lunch?　Or are you going to take the day off?

'I think I'll get lunch. I've got a lot of work to do. I'll take my time today.

I didn't want to waste the lunch that Wendy had prepared for me.

Oh, porridge. It's very good for your stomach.

'Did I just wake up?　I made it because I wanted to........ Just don't push yourself too hard anymore, okay?

Sorry, sorry. I'll be careful not to worry you.

It's just a mouthful.

Wendy puffed up her mouth and pouted, and when I pouted at her swollen cheek, air leaked out.

I finished my meal, thinking it was cute to see Wendy puff her mouth out and get angry at that act as well.

''Speaking of which, what's going on with everyone?''

I asked them while we were washing up side by side.

Normally I would have seen White and Mizella, but today I hadn't seen them yet.

Aina and the others.......I'm pretty sure there were no quests today, but I don't see them either.

''It seems that Mizzella has a delivery for the Adventurer's Guild, so she went to pick it up. Aina and the others said it's a temporary quest. As for White........I'm not sure.

Ho-ho. So I guess it's just you and Wendy today, then?

'Yes. I have my master all to myself.

When she said that, Wendy took a half-step toward me, until she was within touching distance, as if she were leaning toward me.

As I did so, I moved closer to Wendy.

A moment of silence.

It's not that we're going to talk or do anything, but this was a time when I felt happy in this moment, right now.

'I'm sorry,'

Such time was interrupted by the voice of a girl from the Raccoon Race.

''Ah, yes. It seems that what I asked for has been delivered, so I'll go get it.''

Basically, the mail is also received by the kid who is the gatekeeper, who checks that the mail is not dangerous based on the smell, sound, and weight of the mail, and delivers it to us... but I wish they would have delayed the timing just a bit more.

Good. You're done.

Yes. It's over.

I asked Wendy when she came back what she asked for, but she told me it was a secret and we finished washing up, flirting with the idea that it was okay for us to do it.

'Do you have anything else to do today?'

'Most of the cleaning is done. The laundry is about to be taken in, but it still takes a while... and the shopping is fine.

I see. Hmm. So what do I do now?

Um... if you don't mind me saying...

Hmm?

I listened to Wendy's request and gave her a two-for-one okay.

Of course I did!　After all.........

Doesn't it hurt........?

That feels so good...

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh shit.

This is not good. This is too good.

"Oh, there's a big one.

'Aaaaahhhh...'

'Don't scream like that, please. You'll laugh and your hands will go crazy.

Bliss..................

Her cheeks felt Wendy's plump, taut thighs, and her voice was throbbing in her ears.

Furthermore, a thin stick is being thrust into my ear, and the inside is being rubbed to give me a pleasant sensation.

Why does it feel so good to have someone else clean my ears?

It feels good to do it yourself, but it's still no match for having someone else clean your ears.

And Wendy's lusty voice tickles my ears at super close range.

Oh, there's a big guy in the back... you're not supposed to move.

Yes, sir.

Ohhhhhh ... oh no. Yuck. This is deep. It's creepy.

And it feels so good. Ohhhhh I could sleep like this.

Can I have a minute?　I'm tired and I don't need to sleep...........................

'Master!　I'm home!

Huh!

'Oh....'

I was startled and freaked out by Renge's voice as he entered with the door that was opened vigorously. And in the spur of the moment, I went to thrust myself into the ear buds, and my ears hurt!

'HUH!!!!'

Master, please calm down and take it out slowly, slowly, or else you will get hurt!

Wendy coaxed me to slowly and carefully remove the ear buds.

She then had a small amount of the recovery potion poured into her ear.

'.........

"I'm sorry...!　I'll try to calm down and open the door next time and I don't want you to be mad at me!

Renge apologized to me for the Japanese Dogeza, and I decided to forgive her while holding my ears.

Well, I'm sure I'm slightly, slightly responsible for doing it in the living room.

'So, what's the matter?'

'Oh, yes, I did!　That's it!　I'm going to give this to your husband!

A present?

What Renge took out was a small black blob.

Hmm?　That's.....

It's brown sugar!　What do you think?　What do you think?　Isn't that unusual!　It's not white!　It's black!　Plus, it's more nutritious and better for you than regular sugar!

Oh, well...

Yeah. Brown sugar......

"Huh?　It's not very responsive.................no way!

Yeah. Well it's just that in the old world, you know.

Gunn.......... When it comes to sweet things, it's sugar, and I thought I'd give you something special, but...

Shocked, Renge poked his knees and gulped his head down.

'No, but it's been a while and it's good, right?　Yeah. Thanks!

In fact, it's not something I eat that often in the original world, so yeah. It's delicious.

I hope you're happy with it, but...

'Hmmm. Sweet Renge.......... The Lord's world is greedy for food. If it's just brown sugar, of course you've had it before.

From behind the depressed Renge, it was Sorte who came in with a smug look on her face.

He has a victorious look on his face against Renge........what the hell is that?

''Lord!　It's my gift to you!　Yes!

Oh, well thank you.

Well is that ... is that ... honey?

No. Does it smell a little different?

Hmmm. This one.

Oh, maple syrup.

Mae....

Sheesh. The fact that Solte said it in the middle of answering makes her look very sad, and then she crouches down on the spot and starts to gymnast herself.

'Oh, no, oh no, that looks delicious!　I like maple syrup....

...Is that so?

'Yeah. Yeah.

When I licked it off, it was very, very sweet.

I don't dislike it, and I can say I like it, but to eat it directly... well, I guess it's different, but right now I don't have a choice!

Really? You know, it's a rare fruit from a tree monster called sugar maple. It's very sweet and elegant, and you'll never get tired of eating it, right?

Oh, I never get tired of it!

There's no way I'm going to take a bite out of it when you say that!

I put it on my finger and licked it off and then put it on my finger.

What the hell?

What the hell are you doing, both of you getting me a present?

Could it be that today was some kind of anniversary...?

It's been ____ days since we met!　Or is it?

Oh no I don't know because I'm not counting.........

Huh ........the dog and the sprouts are both sweet. Too weird. What the Lord likes is from His country. So this should be your favorite.

From behind the two crouching men, Shiro now appears.

What he has in his hand is.........

Cotton candy.....

Hmm. The Lord's favorite thing in the world.

The big, round cotton candy was wrapped in slime wrap to keep it from melting in the wind.

'Yes. Lord, ahhh.

'Oh, um...'

Another sweet one!

What is it?　What is it?

You want to put me in sweetness-induced hell?

There's no way I'm diabetic...............right?

'My lord!　That's how I feel!　Take it!

Hee.

''Hmmm. I suppose White isn't a bad place to look, but if it's the sweetest food in our lord's world, there's another one, right?

This time Aina brought out a white, round lump on a platter.

'Come on, eat up!　I negotiated with the owner and had it specially made for me, Daifuku!

That's not the Daifuku I know!

They're about the size of a crushed small watermelon!

No, no........this amount is not........

'I don't care if you can eat it. I thought it was better than not having enough!

Mmmmmm..........

I can't just take a bite............

Ugh.......................sweet. The smell, the inside of my mouth, and the tissues of my body are going to be remade into something sweet.

I managed................I managed to eat half of it.

But I can't do it anymore........ I can't do it anymore. I don't want to eat........anything sweet anymore!

Oh........everyone is already here. Oh, by the looks of it, I must have been the fifth.

I wonder what kind of sweetness will be served this time.

''Well......... Selenium sent me the ingredients........so I gave it a try.......what do you think?

It was on a small plate, a small brown, square thing.

This is........chocolate, right?

'Ah!　That's not fair.　Isn't that the most royal of all!

'Why didn't you ask me out........'

'No I didn't even know if I could do it, and in the end I only managed to do this with all the ingredients.........

Chocolate's the way to go...　Valentine's Day?

That's why they were all giving me such a sweet tooth!

Oh no we're not all on duty... are we?

When was the last time I heard you were the real deal............

'Of course!　I'm grateful!

Misela was anxious, but I was grateful for the size of it first.

One bite, one bite and it's over!

Then let's get on with it!

I pluck it up and eat it in one bite.

It is indeed a little bitter.

It's a little bitter, and occasionally a lump of sugar comes out of it, but it's more than good enough.

Yes, it's good. It's good. Thanks, Mizella.

You're not pushing yourself?　But ... thank you, too.

Misela collects a small plate from me and uses it to cover her reddened face.

'That. Speaking of which, is Wendy...?

I don't know when Wendy was gone from earlier........

Come to think of it, I didn't get anything from Wendy........could it be the one I received earlier?

The sweetness that Wendy prepares........I don't know why I feel like it's so sweet.

What in the world is waiting for me........

''Master. Sorry to keep you waiting.

As I waited anxiously, Wendy appeared with a tray.

It seems that the item is placed in a teacup.

I'm not sure if it's in a teacup.　Wendy wasn't there yet?

'Surprising.... I thought Wendy would have been the first to give it to you.

'Sometimes it means something because it's the last......... Yes, Master. Please.........

'Oh thank you?　Huh?

It's not black tea by the color.

Is this........green tea?

'It's the preferred green tea at Amatkuni. I thought you would be more pleased with something like this since you've had something sweet to eat...?

The taste was warm, with a slight bitterness and a mild tea flavor.

Moreover, as I drank it, I could taste the slight sweetness of the tea.

''Ah.......it's so good....

It's a relief and a most wonderful send-off to end on a note of relief.

'Zu, it's not fair...'

That's not fair, is it?　That's not sweet!

It's so shrewd...

You're f*cked....

You're good at that.

'Oh my. I've only chosen what will please my master the most.

Wendy smiles wickedly, but everyone sighs and shrugs their shoulders, "Huh....

'No, they were all happy and tasty, okay?　Thank you all. Now let's all eat what we didn't finish and then we can have tea.

There's still half of Daifuku or something left, and if I have maple syrup, I'll probably make pancakes.

It's still too early in the season to return the favor, but I'll do that much preparation.

It's a nice day, and we'll all enjoy a cup of tea on the balcony.

I don't know who told everyone about this, but it's been a good Valentine's Day. Thank you for that.

"Shun.

Does Misa have the flu?

No, maybe ... maybe ... they've been talking about it.

'Sis.......did you do something again?'

Well, that's tough luck. Ah, ma'am. Here's a present for your Valentine's Day.

Thank you, Misa.

Is it... today... your Valentine's Day?

Yes. It's 45 days into the New Year, right?

Oh, I know!　Ohhhh........I don't think I prepared anything....... Why didn't you tell me!

Hmmm. Sorry, I don't have any more ingredients. We have extra ingredients, so it's not too late to make it now!
