Exterminator · Talk of the day before

This is from when I was new in this world.

I didn't know my skills or my level. I cleaned and pest control and earned a lot of money.

The client, a middle-aged man, asked me to clean his home.

“Clean up after yourself while you're away. When a strange person comes, please tell him that you are not there."

The house is a single-family house with a garden and a man's wife sleeps in the back room.

At that time, I didn't understand the client's story very well, but my wife was ill.

As soon as the man left, I had to clean up.

She said she didn't have to clean her wife's room, so she cleaned the bathroom and warehouse. There were many weapons and armor in the warehouse, in addition to pots and unused dishes. A man may be an ex-adventurer.

Thinking about it, a middle-aged woman dressed in white stood behind her. It must be the man's wife. The hair is long and pale. He asked me what I was doing, and I gestured to him that I was being asked to clean.

When she heard my answer, her wife laughed. Normally, there were no adventurers who took their cleaning requests seriously.

My wife asked me to clean my room, so I went to the back room.

It was a humble room with a bed, a small desk and a chair. There was a certain amount of change of wife on the small desk, and I felt that it was too tasteless.

Dust the room and wipe it with rags.

Coming back with the water from the well in a wooden bucket, the wife was drinking her own brewed tea in the living room.

"Thank you, Master, how about you too?" Why don't you take a break? "

My cup was already on the table. I decided to put the bucket down and put the tea on straight.

How long have you been an adventurer?

About the 10th day.

I answered, spreading my hand and gesturing ten times.

Did you go to training?

“Yes, but I don't think you have any talent for swords or magic.”

"Fufufu"

The wife held her mouth down with her hand and laughed. Normally, I couldn't use a sword or magic, but I guess I wouldn't be an adventurer.

"I'm sorry, I didn't make a fool of myself. However, you don't seem to care if you can't use your sword or magic."

I certainly don't care much.

I said, "Do you want me to eat it?"

"Even though you're an adventurer, you're a strange person." Normally, you want to defeat big monsters, go to places where no one has ever been, and see unusual things and wondrous sights. "

For me now, this town is strange enough.

It's a different world for me. Everything you see is unusual like you've never seen before.

Yeah, you're so heart-rich, aren't you?

I don't think so. I twisted my neck and answered.

The wife took a sip of tea and looked out the window.

From the living room you can see the garden of this house. There was a flower bed in the garden, but it didn't seem to be maintained, and it looked like flowers were blooming in the weeds.

"It's important. When I'm an adventurer, some people wonder what they're doing. Don't forget that feeling, too."

Maybe his wife was also an adventurer.

Yes, I'll remember that.

I had a cup of tea. Since I was speaking in one word, it took me a long time to understand it and to speak from here. Still, when I talk to people, I feel like I'm getting a little better at speaking. Gestures have also decreased.

"I'm going back to work."

I went to the back room with a bucket.

After cleaning the room, I went to call my wife and slept in a chair in the living room.

Holding a sleeping wife, I put her to bed in a room. My wife didn't wake up when I held her. [M]

When I finished cleaning the house, the man didn't come back, so I decided to remove the weeds from the garden. I was wearing a military hand and pulling out weeds, and I found a ring that seemed to be expensive in gold. I just didn't have the money, so I picked it up and put it in my pocket, but I wiped it with my military hand and left it on the table in the living room.

When I pulled out the weeds, a white flower appeared in the flower bed like a swiss. Somewhere, it was blooming cleanly. I think I might get better by watering it.

I remembered my earlier conversation with my wife and decided to do a little service.

There was a pot in the warehouse that seemed to be a vase, so I washed it in the back well, filled it with water, and took it with flowers to the room where my wife was sleeping.

Place a pot instead of a vase on the tractor and place the picked flowers in it. I feel that just that kind of tasteless room has become a little more glamorous.

There was a noise at the front door. It looks like the man just came back.

The man was surprised to see the ring on the table as I stepped out of the room into the living room without making any noise.

Where did you find this ring?

"It was falling into the garden."

I pointed to the garden.

I see. The gardener did the same for me.

“Yes, my wife woke up and asked me to clean my room, so I cleaned it for her.”

I spoke everything in a nutshell, but it seemed to have come through somehow.

The man had a gold ring on his left ring finger. If the meaning of the ring was the same as that of the earth, it seems that the man had lost a lot of things.

"Where's my wife?"

"I'm sleeping in my room."

Hearing my words, the man went to the back room.

The man looked at the flowers in the vase in amazement. The man entered the room and his wife woke up.

The wife said something surprised when she saw the flowers in the vase. The man was showing his ring.

The two spoke something and suddenly began to cry.

I didn't know what I was talking about, but I left the house quietly because the atmosphere wasn't as good as I was.

At the Adventurer's Guild, when I told the receptionist that I had completed the request, I was told that if I didn't get a signature on the request form, I wouldn't have achieved it.

And it came to pass, that on that day he drank the water of the well, and slept in the lodge early, without being paid.

The next day, when I went to the Adventurer's Guild, the receptionist stopped me in a panic and gave me a reward.

A man came to the Adventurer's Guild at night and said he was thanking me. The man is a former adventurer, and now he runs a butcher shop, and he serves me when I go to the butcher shop.
