Life in Another World as a Maid Mage

While his colleagues enjoyed cooking, Siori, who was pulled back by Nadia and others, looked around with a slightly awkward feeling as she took off the front cover and put it on her back. I saw the ladies in the dining room come back as I was licking the fruit liquor that was being held down, and when I exhaled, Nadia, who was looking at it, put the dish in front of her with a bitter smile.

"Well, you eat too. It's nice of you to be a hard worker and a carer, but not too much."

"... ah, yeah"

Siori lowered her eyebrows and buttocks, who was hesitant to sit here with dignity. Is it because of the work of housekeeping magicians that I feel uncomfortable?

Louis, who was happily absorbing the food from everyone, stroked Shiori's feet to comfort her.

"But I don't know. I wonder if I can do exactly the same thing as the avant-garde who lives on the front lines."

Whether or not you realized the feeling, the bakery Betty said it was stinging. They cut the grain bread that they brought in neatly, quickly topped it with cheese and smoked meat, and distributed it one after the other. Though the trick was impressive, Theori rounded her eyes to him, who was more uncomfortable with the female team than that. Some of them seem to be worried about how to treat the toughness of women's words, but the person is cool.

"I'm proud of my job, too, but I don't know... I'm afraid some of you won't listen just because you're behind me."

"Afraid...?

Nadia and Marlena twisted their necks to Betty, but Ellen nodded, "I understand."

"I can't tell anymore, but I was told when I was low ranked. I always have fun in the back, so I told you to serve me."

"... did Ellen tell you that?"

"Yes. Even though I'm working the same way, I'm not fighting the Beast... I know a certain number of people think so. Especially older people."

The healing power of a therapist is quite special in magic, and like the magic of some priests' sacred attributes, it is a congenital ability that cannot be acquired later. Therapeutic magicians and holy magicians are therefore highly valuable, and those with this ability are valued wherever they go.

If such a therapist and even a talented woman with the title of a female doctor were so, Theori thought that she was good enough.

"That's right...."

The sense of occupational discrimination seems to be the same everywhere in the world.

If you're in the sales company, you think the clerk is just a chores clerk.

Siori laughs bitterly, remembering that a colleague at work in Japan said something like that and mourned.

"The kingdom is a pretty advanced country around here, but that kind of discrimination doesn't stop. Especially women."

Nadia sighs as she tilts the glass of fruit liquor, cutting it open and her colleagues complain individually.

"I see. Some people just push women into chores because they're in the same profession."

"Even more women are knights, but there aren't many people who can come forward. Even though women's social advancement has progressed, there are days when they can't work in the same way that men's bodies are made, so... if you say you can't help it, you can't help it. And when you get married and have kids, women have to get into the family."

"I hear Cecilia, a knight, has changed a lot since she became queen, but it's hard. If you think about it from a man's standpoint, it's... That's why I don't want to be actively pointed out and told that it's useless."

"That's not true...."

With strength and swordsmanship, you might be able to handle it. However, due to the unique circumstances of women, it is a concern of women knights that it is difficult to work as often as men once a month. It's similar for female adventurers, but it's still a lot easier because I can decide my own vacation time.

Also, the Enandel Chamber of Commerce handles sanitary products for women adventurers. There is also talk of an increase in female adventurers thanks to this product, which is also secretly taken care of by Shiori.

--However, just because it has become easier to do it doesn't reduce the spiciness of the moon, many female adventurers still take a week off from work.

(... ah. When you start living with Alec... maybe you should talk about that.)

Since I came to this world, I have been feeling irregular because of hard work and hard work. It is difficult to calculate and adjust the work due to the fact that there are some months that are not going to be visited at all.

(It's kind of hard to talk... how are we all doing?)

I was vaguely thinking that I might be able to learn from Marlena, who was a couple, and when I realized that it had become a topic of women's secrets, Betty said, "I'm going over there," and moved to the table where Alec and the others were with a bread cage.

Nadia, who had lost her back, gracefully grabbed the canapé he had made and smiled.

"... he's such a weirdo, but he's so neat."

I use women's words, but I'm a gentleman on the inside. Many people don't like the language, but on the other hand, many women seem to like the personality. However, it seems that the professional pattern of a bakery that is based on getting up early and working long hours doesn't last very long even if you have a lover. If you don't really want to be the mistress of the bakery, it will be difficult to be together.

"Well, you can tell the adventurer that."

Marlena roasts thinly sliced fried potatoes.

"I'm always away, my earnings are unstable, and my life is in danger."

"If one of them is an ordinary person, it won't last long. Women are more adventurous, especially when they say to quit their jobs if they get married. I know you can't let me do a job that could kill you if you think about giving birth and raising a child... but it won't be easy if you throw away your track record."

Louis Forcian, a veteran receptionist, said he was stingy. Although she belongs to the Adventurers Association (Guild), she is not an adventurer, she is also a clerk who is proud of the job and has been single since she waved her boyfriend to quit and join the family.

Unless you're an unintentional and unavoidable adventurer, but if you want to step into the world, you won't feel like nodding honestly when they tell you to quit.

However, there are many people who have left the front line since they entered their thirties when their health began to decline noticeably and turn to housework and new mentoring, and it seems that there are a certain number of people who will get married on this occasion.

An inevitable path to reduced exercise due to aging. The body is the capital, and the adventurers and knights next to death seem to start thinking about how to swing from this age.

Exceptions include Hilardo-on, who is still active after eighty years. Even such a man applied for demotion of his former rank of A to B at the same time as the celebration of his return calendar. That's why I can't work as well as I did when I was young.

"... how to shake yourself, huh..."

I will continue to be an adventurer. Even though there were unavoidable circumstances, I think I've worked so hard. However, given my age, I don't have much confidence that I can work the same way in ten years.

What will Alec do?

And who are you?

"--How to shake yourself, Theori."

Nadia shook the subject carelessly, trying to shake off the atmosphere of the place that had somehow fallen down.

"I heard you live with Alec, but is that true? He moved to your apartments."

"Eh... ah, yeah. I wonder if you could join me because it's so spacious..."

Sometimes it was sudden and it was impossible during the year, but when I told her that I was going to move to the room early at the beginning of the year, my colleagues cheered before exhausting all the dialogue.

"Amazing! Alec, I don't know where the momentum is going!

"I don't know if I've read this in seconds!

"I can't believe you two were so tough guards together!

"Wow, wow!?"

Driven by the momentum of my excited colleagues, Theori turned back. Love stories seem to be the best topic in any world. Alec, who glanced back, was similarly surrounded and talked with enthusiasm. Is there a similar topic over there?

Alec looked back, noticing his gaze. His eyes met, he smiled softly and then returned to the circle of conversation.

Though that was all, Shiori, who was a little happy, smiled thinly again.

"A lover...."

Whether it was touched by the atmosphere of the venue or is it not very resistant to alcohol, Ellen, who pushed herself down to the table, murmured softly and loosened her usual neat expression.

"I want it too...."

Ooh.

Nadia, whose eyes were rounded, then lifted her pale lips into the shape of a smile.

"Have you finally decided to consolidate yourself, Miss Ellen?"

Her elf-like beauty in fantasy novels from the other world seemed to have been the only five therapists in the Tris branch, and there were many men who used colored eyes.

But she feels worthy of helping herself and is so eager that she spent years off her adventurer career studying to get her doctor's license in order to make the most of her abilities. A half-half man attracted only by his fluffy appearance is said to be cut in a fearful female doctor mode.

Remembering that it was powerful enough to keep Alec busy during the Brovito incident, Cili sneaked out.

"Until now, my work was fun and I didn't feel like falling in love. But seeing Siori and Alec, I kind of wanted one. That's good, it's a relationship that can support each other like that."

Her gaze narrowly turned towards the men's circle.

I wonder if anyone is looking for it. I thought so, but I didn't even know who the gaze was on.

"But Ellen, it looks like someone who wants to be loved is going to get killed."

That said, Ellen giggles.

"I don't mean to offend you, but... I like people who are neat about their work. And I like people who usually make me feel good together. I like people who are enthusiastic and cheerful at work and who are good at talking and caring."

"Hee... eh?

I was dressed up as an ideal figure that was too high, but I felt like I was imagining someone who was subtly specific and close to me. Is it because of my mind?

Theoli leaned her neck small, but Ellen giggled and laughed amusely.

Before long, the topic of the women moved on to the story of the man of their choice and the ideal male statue.

"Hey, Theoli."

Ellen whispers after drinking a sip of the carbonated fruit wine.

"Be happy."

From her hand, which touched the hand holding the glass, a soft, warm, gentle light overflowed and disappeared. Rough hands become clean in an instant during housework.

"... ah"

"If it's not a serious injury, you shouldn't use healing magic, but today is special."

Ellen narrowed her silver blue eyes like Topaz and smiled.

"Good luck a year, Theori. I'll see you next year."

"... yes. Ellen, too."

Siori was delighted at the hard work of her companions and broke his face. Louis trembles pleasantly as she takes in the skewered meat.

--- I hope that we will celebrate a new year with these friendly people and that we will be able to finish the year safely again without missing anyone.

I hope so.

With that in mind, Theoli entered the circle of stories of her friends who had become more intimate in the past year.
