The only person who recognized her overwhelming power without making fun of her was Riito. Riito himself secretly admires Adel who never stopped training.

Though she has a defect of not listening to others.

「Anyway, it’s good we got this tree.」

That’s true since they no longer have to take the risk of going to the east mountains to pick up firewood in a while.

The barbeque, which finally started when the sky was tinged with indigo and the first star shone, was more peaceful and livelier than usual.

The salt-grilled chicken had a fragrant skin and when eaten with potato, the fat would be sweet.

Although it’s kind of expensive, it has the flavor that only chicken can have.

「Hnn～～nyaai!」

「Nyaa!」

The catkin duo was in a good mood and were planning to sell the potatoes as roasted potatoes and call it Togen Village’s specialty.

Good idea, Riito though.

If Riito’s favorite food becomes popular in the Guild Autonomous Region, it will be possible to eat the “delicious foods” that Riito has been wishing for.

Rather than developing his poor cooking skill, Riito felt that it would be more fulfilling to go around eating out.

「This wood burns well.」

「I agree, master. I will mark it as a good resource.」

Navi nodded. Artificial spirits don’t need food but they like to sit around the fire like she was doing.

The wood the Adel brought for them is burning efficiently.

The flowerkins don’t use fire very much given their nature but that’s not the case with Riito. Riito, who can’t use fire magic, needs firewood for cooking, washing, and bathing.

Unfortunately, a tree that big can’t be carried by the flowerkins.

（Fumu, just think of this as maintaining the east mountains. It’s not a bad idea to remove dead trees….）

He turned to Adel.

「If it’s okay with you, can you help me gather trees like this?」

「Eh?」

「It’s still early summer but it’s a matter of life and death to run out of firewood in winter.」

It’s true that Riito can make firewood using handy grass as much as he wants. However, the efficiency of that method is too low.

That made him ask Adel a favor.

「Though if you had to go back to the capital immediately, you don’t have to.」

「No, that’s not what I meant—」
