Chapter 31-Yuki's Anguish and Moving Work

(TL:By Rafael)

...... How did this happen?

Are they sure? No, it's not okay. I don't think it's a good idea.

No matter how much of a party we are , We four people can't live together .......

(TL: The house and their hearts are big)

But ......, but.

If I'm too adamant, they'll think I'm thinking of something else, won't they?

That said, what about this situation ......?

Hmmm .......

"Ku ... what should I do ...!"(Yuki)

── A few hours ago.

We went back to Monday Real Estate, completed the sales contract without delay, and successfully obtained a party base.

Marina was very happy and excited about what she wanted to do with the room, and I was smiling, but Silk's words froze me in my tracks.

"So, which room do you want, Sensei?"(Silk)

"......?"(Yuki)

When I nodded my head to ask if she was talking about me, Silk nodded her head as well.

"Room?"(Yuki)

"Yes. Yes, I was wondering if you'd like the one in the back or the one in the front or ...... if you have any requests."(Silk)

(TL: Give him the room with most reach)

"Wait, Silk. What are you talking about?"(Yuki)

"I'm talking about your room ......?"(Silk)

I don't think we're on the same page.

"Just to be clear, you're not talking about me moving in with you, are you?"(Yuki)

"It's a party base, so you'll be living there too."(Silk)

"Together?"(Yuki)

"Yes, together."(Silk)

It seems that they were searching for a base with that intention.

In addition, it seems that all three of them were planning to do so from the beginning, and now I am forced to agonize over the accelerating thoughts.

I sighed at this innocent lack of sense of crisis as I looked at my room, which was lined with my furniture.

"Look, who is still struggling with his decision ....... Pussy."(Rain)

Rain's head pokes out of the open door, and she peers at me.

Marina and Silk also peeked their heads out and looked at me.

"It's true."(Marina)

"You're dragging it out."(Silk)

I know this all is like a mess, but you're the ones who caused it. It's your fault.

"It's a little late for that, isn't it, Yuk? If we were camping, we'd be sleeping next to each other."(Marina)

"That's not the same thing, is it?"(Yuki)

"It's the same. We trust you. ...... And it's great that we get to eat your food every day!"(Marina)

"Marina, the chores are rotational."(Silk)

Marina giggles when Silk shows her the reality, "Ehehe."

"Well, it's a little late for not moving now, isn't it, ......?"(Yuki)

"Yes. You should give up. Fufufu."(Rain)

Rain laughed as she came into the room in a good mood.

"Besides, I feel safer with Yuk around. You know what they say about a only woman's family being always in danger, right?"(Rain)

"......"(Yuki)

Yes, I did say that.

Oh, God, ....... I've got no choice, I'm going to have to resign myself to it.

I tried to resist , but I've already moved in.

"......, each of you should lock your doors properly. Keep in mind that I'm a man, too, and take care of yourself."(Yuki)

"Yes."(Silk)

"Okay."(Marina)

"Okay."(Rain)

Do you get it or not?

"Now then, ...... let's get back on track and finish up the move. Call me if you need my help."(Yuki)

◇ 

"Good work!"(Silk)

"Good work."(Rain)

"Good job."(Marina)

"Congratulations, everyone."(Yuki)

We hammered together a mug of fruit wine and poured it down in one go.

I let out a big breath as the good acidity and burning alcohol moistened my throat.

"Only Yuk is still acting a bit like a stranger!　I demand a do-over!"(Marina)

"Don't say that, Marina.While I'm being a stranger, I have a housewarming gift for everyone."(Yuki)

I put my hand into my magic bag and pulled out the item I wanted.

It's a bit large, but not too heavy.

"Here, take this. ......"(Yuki)

I set it on the wall and looked back at the three people at the table.

"Wow, a 'tablet' ......!"(Rain)

"Something this big must have cost ...... a fortune."(Silk)

"It's amazing!It's huge!"(Marina)

"I thought we'd be making decisions from now on by watching logs and strategy feeds from our base, so I splurged."(Yuki)

I'll start it up right away.

《......The Royal Academy of Sciences has issued the following statement regarding the expansion of the demon monster habitat that has been occurring frequently in recent days: .........》

"Oh, it's on!It's a big screen!It's so easy to see!"(Marina)

"Until now, the three of us have been watching a small one. This is great."(Rain)

"I'm glad you like it."(Yuki)

I looked back at them and smiled. They were pouring drinks into my empty mug at the same time.

"Thank you, Yuk!"(Marina)

"Thank you, Sensei."(Silk)

"Thank you. Let's have another ...... toast, shall we?"(Rain)

"Oh, yeah. Yeah, sure. Let's do it."(Yuki)

I went back to my seat and picked up my mug, and everyone raised theirs.

"Well, let's have the leader of the party ...... propose another toast, shall we?"(Marina)

"Mmm. I'm not very good at this sort of thing."(Yuki)

"It's strange that there are things that Yuki isn't good at! Anything is fine!"(Marina)

"So here's to ......, our new lives,Cheers."

""Cheers!""

As we clink our mugs together, the tablet displays the next piece of information.

The faces on the screen were familiar ones.

《Today, the Kingdom has granted permission to enter the "Colorless Darkness" dungeon, which had been under lockdown, based on applications from several parties. The A-ranked party "Thunderpike" took the lead in making the call, and with the help of several sponsors, this was made possible. It will be a large scale investigation request aiming at the "Abyss Gate". Also, please visit .......》

I was completely oblivious to the broadcast and drank myself into the drink as I was asked to, only to find out about it the next day at .......
