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

"Do you have dinner first? Or do you take a bath?"

When I heard Flora's words in the living room, I was a little worried.

I'm sweating today because I climbed the mountain and moved around.

I really want to sweat first, but I'm more hungry than that.

Now, I want to eat flora's delicious home cooking first, rather than sweating.

"Hmm, I'm hungry today, so dinner is ahead!"

"I see. I'm going to warm up the dishes, so please wait a bit."

When I say that, Flora smiles and moves to the kitchen.

He wore a blue apron hanging on the wall, hummed and lit the pot.

Sometimes flora hums in the kitchen, but today I feel more happy than ever.

"Somehow very happy?"

"Ufufu, I've actually wanted to say the line I asked a while ago, for a long time. I was looking at my mother who had a dad, so it looked like a bride."

When asked, she was shy and answered.

Indeed, is it a longing line like a bride?

"I'm an orphan, but it's a word that has little to do with it, but it's a word that only couples and families can say."

That made me think the previous words were very special.

At the tip of my head, I remembered saying something similar to a maid in a noble mansion, but it didn't seem to be anything special.

After all, I'm glad that important people can talk with my heart.

When I was deeply moved, Flora looked at this, looking somewhat complicated.

Oops. I shouldn't have talked about such a heavy story in a bright atmosphere.

"Sorry, it was a bit heavy"

"No, I'm glad to tell you about the past. I want to know a little about Aldo."

"Is that so?"

Flora's straight words and smiles are dazzling and shy.

"And from now on, I'll tell you every day."

It was. Flora accepted me, including my past.

Then let's talk more about the past without forcing her to do so.

"Yes, thank you"

When she was honest and thankful, Flora laughed bitterly.

After a while, a nice smell drifts in the living room, as the pot is warming up.

Stimulates hungry stomach violently with tomato acidity and subtle meaty aroma.

"It smells good. Maybe tomato and chicken soup?"

"I'm sorry. Today I rolled cabbage with tomato."

"Oh, were you there!"

During the peaceful conversation, Flora puts on the plate how warm the roll cabbage is.

Tableware, such as knives and forks, and garnish bread are already lined up on the table.

I wondered what I needed to do, but realized that there was no drink on the table.

Since it is a tall cabbage, I will serve red wine today.

"Does Flora drink red wine?"

"Yes, I drink."

He says that he also drinks flora, so he takes out two glasses from the cupboard and takes out Nordende wine from the kitchen shelves.

It's not as old as Elgis has, but it's mature enough.

There is quite a lot of Nordende in our red wine because it can be easily brought by Aisha, and it can be drunk by Flora who is not good at alcohol.

The shelf will be squeezed with wine as it is, so you have to drink it completely.

Pour red wine into a glass for some reason.

After pouring wine and sitting down, Flora just brought me a plate with rolled cabbage.

"I'm done!"

"Oh, it looks delicious!"

Two large rolls of cabbage sitting on a red soup.

It must be filled with meat that sucked the soup's umami.

Saliva overflowed in my mouth just by smell and imagination.

"Here you go, please eat"

"Yeah, I'll get you."

Inspired by Flora, I started breaking down the main roll cabbage.

The cooked cabbage softened with a knife and the meat inside was immediately visible.

While holding off the deviant feeling, I cut it with a knife so that it is easy to eat.

When it is done, pierce it with a fork and carry it to your mouth.

"Hmm! Delicious!"

The taste of cabbage and juicy meat spread in the mouth. And the sourness of the tomatoes, which harmonizes it perfectly, is very good.

The cabbage is very soft and has more tomato taste than meat.

This is an area that can be said to be a feast, even though it has excellent compatibility with meat.

Flora smiled satisfactorily while eating.

"I'm glad. I've got some alternatives so please eat a lot."

Roll cabbage goes well with wine, and was replaced twice after this.

◆

When I finished my dinner, Flora and I used the dishes in the kitchen sink.

I wash the dishes, hand the washed things to Flora and have them wipe with a cloth.

It's a trivial task, but I like this collaboration.

I'm working without a conversation, but it doesn't hurt me.

Rather, the tranquility is even felt comfortable.

While listening to the sound of the water flowing without exchanging words, all the dishes are washed when working.

"Mr. Aldo, can I put hot water in the bathtub because I will clear the dishes?"

"Yes, I understand. Then I'll add hot water."

I didn't use tableware at a high place, so I would leave it to Flora.

The magic tool can also use the flora, but I can't control it delicately enough to make hot water, so it's my job to water it.

After you have thoroughly washed the bathtub in the bathhouse, take out the magical tools in the dressing room and add hot water.

When the bath is filled with hot water just enough, put your arms a little and check if it is the right temperature.

"Yeah, it feels just right."

When he returned to the dressing room with his magic gear, there was Flora who brought a change of clothes such as towels.

"I'll keep Aldo's clothes."

"Thank you"

It's a flora that puts my clothes on, but my arms are holding my clothes.

That means that Flora will be with us now. Or an expression of willingness to enter.

It's embarrassed to cut it off from me because it's bad air to take them off silently.

"Well, why don't we go together?"

"Yes, yes."

Flora nodded with a mixed expression of joy and embarrassment, and put her clothes on the undressing basket.

Looking at his profile, he found that not only his cheeks but also his ears were dyed red.

I've been bathing with Flora many times and I've seen my skin, but I'm not used to this embarrassingness.

If you think that Flora is undressing next to you, I'm very worried, but it's not good to see too much.

I take off my clothes as if to shake off my thoughts.

In the meantime, I felt a glance from the side, but ignored it as a man and opened the bath door.

Looking back, Flora looked at my body without changing her clothes.

"Is it going first?"

"Oh yes!"

When I said that, Flora started to play and started changing clothes.

Apparently Flora didn't seem to be used to the embarrassment of taking a bath together.
