5. Stay

I forgot about the time I was talking to Elena, but staying here forever could annoy Elena. I thought it was time to take some time.

"We've been talking about this for a long time, but it's time to spare you, right? I think it's a lot too late."

"Huh? Oh, I'm sorry. Lena and I met late, but we talked a long time..."

"Never mind. Because it's like it's caused by me being concerned and sticking my neck in it. Besides, in the guild, you couldn't talk to Elena like this, so it was fun, right?

"I'm glad you think so. But why don't you stay at my house if you don't mind if I return Mr. Lena so late?

"Huh? But annoying Mr. Elena. Then..."

"It's gonna be okay, okay? For once, there's also a spare futon."

... If that's what Elena says, why don't we stay? There are men, and if anything happens to Elena, I shouldn't.

"... can I have Elena stay at your house today?

"Fine. But what about Mr. Lena's clothes..."

"Oh, then I'll have it once and for all"

"Really, then would you like Mr. Lena to wash her body first? Follow me."

There's a place in the house where I wash my body... and with that in mind I followed Mr. Elena.

There was a small room in the place where Elena guided me that way, where there was a magic item similar to what she also kept in the inn. It was used in the same way as the Inn, so I could use it right away, but the momentum from the hot water was about half that of the Inn. I washed my head and body thinking that maybe it was because it was cheaper magic equipment than what I had in the polylodge.

Elena was preparing for dinner when she finished washing her body and went back to her earlier room.

"Lena, come out... you did"

Mr. Elena noticed that I was back and came calling, but when she looked at me, it felt like words were jammed for a moment, but I told her to go on like nothing had happened. Was there something wrong with how Elena looked like that? I thought so and checked, but there seemed to be no particular problem.

"A little food, but if you like, go ahead."

"Oh, thank you"

'Cause I'm gonna flush my body while Mr. Lena's eating dinner.

That's what Mr. Elena said. She walked into the next room. I waited for Elena to come back while I ate the rice that Elena had made for me.

After a while after I finished eating the rice Elena had made for me, Elena came back and thanked me for the rice and said, "It's not a big deal, so you don't have to worry about it," and I started getting ready for bed.

And when those preparations were over, he said to me, "You can always sleep, so let me know when you get sleepy, okay?" She nodded, "and then we talked until we were sleepy. At that time, I was curious that Elena had been calling me Mr. Lena, so she eventually called me" Lena "when she offered to call me a more shattered one. Well, I'm glad I even crushed it to call it something similar to Youre... And I got sleepy thinking about it, so I told Elena about it and we fell asleep.

Next morning.

When I woke up as usual, I was perplexed for a moment by a different ceiling, but yesterday I remembered staying at Mr. Elena's house. When I woke up and looked next door, Elena was asleep with a quick breath.

Regular Elena is kind, she thinks she's a responsible, hard-working, beautiful person, but when she looks asleep like this, she still looks a little young. Well, it might be odd for me to say that right now...

With that in mind, I'll just wake up and get dressed. Usually I would go have dinner and train like this, but I'm at Elena's house today, so Elena might be worried if she's gone on her own. But I'm also waiting still...... And with that in mind, for the first time in a long time, I moved to the next room to make no noise even trying to sew.

What am I going to make when I sit on my chair? I thought so. Because of this, and would you like something to thank Elena for? They didn't just let me stay, they let me flush my rice and body...

"Can I have my hair fastened just like mine? I don't know if you'd be happy, but I'll make it for now..."

I thought so and gave out the necessary ingredients and tools. I thought about how many colored shrubs to make there and decided to make them in black. I made it black because of the color that I could use at work if possible. Well, I don't know if the guild has a rule that you can't do anything about it, but I think it looks good on Mr. Elena's hair, right? and I was working silently with that in mind.

That's how the black shrub was completed, but Elena didn't have any sign of it happening yet, so now Elena is up when she made the blue system shrub and finished it.

"Good..."

Then Mr. Elena gave me a reassuring look when she saw me for some reason.

"What's up?

"Nothing. Morning, Lena."

"Good morning?

I returned my greetings even though I had some doubts about how Mr. Elena was doing.

"I'm gonna make you some rice, so wait."

"Oh, yes."

That's what Elena said and created the dish, so I started cleaning up the stuff I was spreading on my desk.

Then I ate the dish Elena cooked for me and gave Elena what I had just made before I left the house because I was going to work after a while.

"Elena, if this is a good idea, thank you for dinner and all that."

"Huh?... Is this the hair fastening Yua had?

Then Mr. Elena realized that the hair fastening I offered was the same as what Youre had.

"Yes."

"Huh? Can I really have it? I haven't made much rice."

"Yes, I made it for Elena."

"... Did Lena make this?

"Yes."

"Oh, thank you"

Elena put it on quickly when she received it as she thanked her.

"... what do you think?

"You look great, don't you?

"Oh, yes..."

Mr. Elena seemed happy to say so. Look happy with what I made. I have made it...... and headed with Elena to the guild with that in mind.
