Chapter 1766: Tea Party with Illness 4
<Author’s Notes> This §ub§tanc€ is firm1¥ €mb€dd€d in n0v*lbin★
I still haven’t completely recovered yet, so today’s chapter is a little short.
The tea party with Illness-san naturally turned into idle chatter. When Illness-san and I were chatting, Illness-san usually takes on the role of the listener, and this time as well, I talked about various things while Illness-san seemed to enjoy listening.
[I seeeeee, tea bags huuuuuh. That does sound like a very interesting produuuuuct. Even an amateur can brew tea easily with iiiiiiit, so it certainly iiiiiiis convenient.]
[Yes...... Well, of course, they wouldn’t taste as great as tea made by someone actually skilled.]
In this conversation, since Illness-san seemed interested in the world I came from, so while we were talking about tea, I introduced her to tea bags.
[Errr, Illness-san. If you don’t want to, feel free to say no, but I’d like to hear some stories back of your past...... but is that no good?]
[Stories of my paaaast? I’m fine with thaaaaat, but it’s not like there were any dramatic eveeeeents, so it might not be that interesting, you knoooooow?]
[Yes. Even still, I’m fine with that. How should I say this, I guess I want to get to know Illness-san more...... so I don’t really mind if it were not exciting. It could be about that time before you worked as a maid in the royal castle or stories from the days you were traveling in the Demon Realm.......]
Hearing what I said, a gentle smile appears on Illness-san’s lips.
[Kuhihi, when you say it like thaaaaaat, I can’t really refuse. Well theeeeen, it’s not a particularly interesting storyyyyyyyy, but back in the old Demon Realm, when I was traveling...... let’s seeeeee...... I suppose I’ll talk about the reasoooooons that led me to start my journey.]
Apparently not particularly averse to talking about it, in a calm tone of voice, Illness-san started sharing her stories from the past.
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [Speaking of which, I feel like Illness herself rarely talked about her past.]
