An A-Ranked Adventurer’s “Slow-living”

When I decided on a new house, it was already around noon, so I and Elgis decided to eat a sandwich, a lunch box, near a stream.

Sit down on a slightly sloped area and remove the cloth from the basket.

Then I saw a stuffed sandwich there. Fresh tomatoes, lettuce, and stir-fried chicken with herbs are sandwiched between the breads, so it looks very delicious.

The fresh ingredients and the savory smell of wheat are unbearable.

Perhaps because of such a smell, my stomach complained of hunger and cried.

"This looks delicious"

"Yes, let's get it right away"

Conversation was moderate, and I immediately caught a sandwich.

The texture of soft bread and crispy lettuce is pleasant. Due to the rich lettuce and tomatoes, the stir-fried chicken stir-fry is also moderately tasted. The ingredients are very balanced in taste. Feel the gentle care of Flora.

Eat a sandwich for a while, and look around when the stomach is settled down a little.

As the pleasant breeze blows, the water of the brook ripples and spreads smoothly.

Looking directly at the stream, I saw a small river fish swimming in the water.

"Is the river fish here delicious?"

"Yes, they can be delicious if they are properly prepared. The fish here are not so bad."

I was not worried because it was a beautiful river, but the river fish here seem to be delicious. Sometimes there is no other way to clean the river fish, no matter how you prepare it.

"I guess I'll eat even grilled river fish after a long absence."

"Oh, good. Will you lend me a fishing rod or a trap?"

"Is this true? Thank you."

"Yeah, please divide it in the meantime. I also wanted to eat river fish."

"Yes. Then I catch a lot."

While flattering the conversation, we flatten the sandwich.

"Now, Aldo will clean his house, and I'll be back soon."

After drinking water and taking a break, Elgis stands up with two baskets.

If it's true, I would like to relax while talking with each other as it is, but I have to clean my house today. If you are too slow, you may not be ready by the sunset.

"Yes, thank you for introducing a good house. By the way, do you have any furniture in this village?"

After cleaning, you'll have to get some daily necessities like furniture and tableware.

I want to be able to live quickly with everything I need.

"Ah, that's right. Some furniture takes time to make, so it's better to ask early. Yes, there is. It's very close."

Elgis points his finger.

In front of it was a private house that stood out in the woods.

"The house over there is Mr. Toac's house, a furniture maker. I'll talk later, so please visit him tomorrow morning."

I was surprised to be closer than I thought. I can go immediately at this distance.

"I see. Took-san. Thank you!"

When I thanked me, Elgis lifted up the basket she had, saying she was good.

"When you're ready, call out. I'll introduce you to a huntsman."

"understood!"

"So I'm at this."

When I reply, Elgis turns around and turns.

I watched Elgis for a while and then returned to my house.

Now, it's time to clean up.

◆ ◆ ◆

My stomach is swollen and my physical strength and energy are enough, and I immediately start cleaning the house.

It looks like a house, but not so bad.

In this village, the villagers in the area take turns cleaning the vacant houses so as not to degrade them.

However, the house was full of dust, probably because it has been a long time since the last cleaning.

First, let's open the windows in the house completely and let the air in.

Then I'm going to sweep out the dust with a broom and clean it with a rag.

I thought and opened the window in the living room.

"Geho, Geho!"

At that time, the dust suddenly soars up and coughs unintentionally.

It would be better to cover the mouth with a cloth before opening all the windows.

Take a small cloth out of the hemp bag and guard your mouth and nose.

My eyes are a little bit stained, but this can't be helped anymore.

Then I open all the windows in the living room, bedroom, bath, storage, restroom, etc.

As a result, the air in the house begins to flow at once, and dust begins to drift with it. It was clearly visible to the eyes by sunlight shining through the window.

I think it's better not to stay inside the house for a while, and rush out.

In the meantime, it's no wonder that you'll be in a hurry, so check the walls of your house for cracks.

I looked around the walls around the house and found that there were no cracks or other damage.

It is in very good condition.

The weeds around the house are bobo, and some of the grass sticks to the walls, but removing them would be fine.

Thanks to those who have been cleaning up on their own since the landlord is gone. When we go around greetings, we must give thanks including that.

Put on gloves while thinking of such a thing, and peel off the weeds stuck to the wall.

Stubborn weeds that cannot be removed by hand are torn with a knife.

After removing all the weeds stuck to the wall, return to see the house.

Yeah, Oita air is clear. This looks fine.

With the broom borrowed from Elgis's house in hand, the dust on the floor is scraped out.

All the necessary cleaning tools are borrowed, so it's perfect.

The dust on the floor soared again, but she was fine because she was covering her mouth with a cloth.

Sweep it from the storeroom, bath, and bedroom in the back, put it in the dustpan and throw it out.

After finishing the room at the back, move to the large living room and sweep the dust out with a broom.

After confirming that the large dust was gone, including in the kitchen, I went to the brook and fetched water with a bucket.

You don't have to use the well water to wipe with a rag. The water is clean enough.

Put a rag in a bucket of water and let the water soak, then wipe the kitchen first. If you wipe the floor suddenly, the rags are going to be muddy.

Wipe the walls of the kitchen and living room and wash them with water if they become dirty.

After that, this time, the wall of the back room. After that, we will wipe the floor with water.

I had to go back and forth in the stream many times to change the dirty water, and squeezed the rag many times.

If you wipe the floor, your back will hurt and you will hit your waist.

He then stretched out to loosen the tight muscles.

"Well ..."

The housewife who does this every day is great. In addition, helping the child to take care of the child in cooking and laundry, and helping the field ...

I feel a little understand the feelings of a housewife who complains that her husband does not praise herself while she is doing her housework desperately.

I was impressed by the housewife's terrific wisdom, and I was able to finish my house cleaning before sunset.

"Oh, it's pretty beautiful. It looks like it's wrong."

When I look at the clean room, I exclamate.

The dusty walls and floors were finely polished and restored to their original colors.

The walls and floors are more vivid and beautiful than they were when I first saw them.

The feeling of achievement and satisfaction of cleaning the house with my own hands spreads in my heart, and I feel refreshed.

Sitting on the clean floor, watching the living room and muttering.

"Is this the joy of housewives?"

It feels completely different from the quest achievement. Is it your home?

She laughs at me because it seems strange.

When I removed the cloth I no longer needed, I noticed that it was covered with dust.

Indeed, this is the dirty cloth that covered the mouth. Your hair and clothes must be dirty. If you sit on the floor in such a state, will it get dirty again?

I rushed out of the house and smashed the dust in my body.

Every time I hit the bun and my body, I saw dust rising.

When I noticed that my body was dirty, I immediately felt discomfort and wanted to take a bath.

I'm going to Toac's house to order furniture tomorrow.

I told myself, I decided to get ready for the bath.

Take out two bracelets from the hemp bag, equip and head for the bath.

The big bathtub that boasts of this house is shiny because I polished it carefully to answer the feeling of the previous owner.

He thrusts out his hand with a bracelet engraved with a light blue magic circle and casts a spell.

"Water"

When I chanted so shortly, a light blue magic circle appeared on the palm of my hand and the water rushed out of it.

If you change the spell to water lance, water ball, etc., the spear-shaped water will be ejected and the water ball will fly, but the magical power contained in the magic stone will be greatly consumed.

Water that only provides water can be used for a long time because it consumes less magical power.

I squeeze my hand when the bath is filled with enough water.

Then the magic circle disappears and the magic is released. It is convenient.

Now that the bath is filled with water, we will warm it.

This time he sticks out his left arm, armed with a bracelet engraved with a red magic circle, and casts a spell.

"fire"

Then a red magic circle appeared on the hand, and a fist-sized flame came out of it.

The water of the bathtub makes a noise and splashes water, probably because the flame of the high heat was blown into the water.

I was in a hurry and evacuated to a dressing room because I was scared more than I thought.

"Wow, I'm scared. I thought it would be okay because the Kourne guys were doing fine ..."

After watching the water that was making a noise slowly calm down, I returned to the bath.

Then the water in the bath was warming up white steam.

The magician Kourne can make fine adjustments, but unfortunately this fire magic tool can not be adjusted so much so it may be at a temperature higher than hot water.

First, open the window, wait a while, then put your hands in the hot water.

Yeah, slightly hotter than hot water. I'm glad I didn't get in because I was waiting.

After waiting for a while, the temperature reached a nice level and I took off my clothes at the dressing room.

We pour hot water like yesterday and remove dirt attached to body.

Unfortunately we haven't prepared the soap yet, so we decided to wash our bodies with towels and hot water.

I thoroughly washed my body and head with hot water and went into the bathtub to relieve today's fatigue.

I got out of the bath and forgot to bring my clothes to the dressing room and returned to the living room.

It's very pleasant to walk indoors naked, probably because you've been warmed up in the bath. It's going to be a habit. Yesterday it was a human house and I couldn't do this.

The door was knocked down when I was fishing for a change of clothes from a hemp bag while enjoying the exhilaration.

"Yes"

On the other hand, I respond very naturally.

――Ah, yabe. It's too late when I realize I was naked.

"I'm bothering you, Aldo. I thought I was busy cleaning the house and brought dinner-"

Flora, who opens the door and enters, hardens when she sees my nakedness.

I wanted to scream out why she was a woman.

"" ......... "

You can feel Flora's gaze slowly coming down from my face. As a result, Flora's face turns red in a flash.

"Oh, that one"

At such times, he doesn't know what to say, and when he calls involuntarily, Flora returns to me.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!"

He jumped out loud.

Oh, I did it. I'll see you again if you meet again.

I feel a little closer to her.
