Close your eyes with a hug on Ciel's neck.

be healed ~.

I thought there was nothing more surprising about Sola, but it was sweet.

You've taemed a really amazing kid.

Or does Collapse Slime look like this to everyone?

... Flem any more?

Let's not think about it.

"Ivy, bad. Time to go?

Open the eyes that were closed to Mr. Druid's bewildered voice.

That's right, starting today I'm making sauces that go with rice balls.

All right!

Let's do our best.

"Thank you, Ciel. Sora, should we get back to the bag? Flem... let's get up a little longer"

"Puffy ~"

"Teriyu, Riyu ~"

Gently hug the sleeping flem and put it in the bag.

This kid can hardly eat more.

For this reason, I feel that it is slower to be firm than when I was Sola.

That kid, I'm going to watch him slowly because he's growing up, but don't be surprised because he's completely different from Sola.

"I'm ready. Ciel, it's early today, but I'm sorry. Good luck with the sauce."

"Nya-yay."

Take your time, I want to stay up till night.

Can't you do it because of the grubal thing?

Mr. Druid will agree, but the gatekeepers will.

If I don't get back by night, I'm going to make a fuss.

... somehow I can imagine.

"What's going on?

"No, I think I want to stay with Ciel until night once and for all."

"Isn't that nice? Gulbal won't be a problem with Ciel."

"Will the gatekeepers be okay, too?

"Oh, were those guys there? I can't talk to you about Ciel. I can see all the fuss about not coming home."

Hahaha, looks like we got to the same result.

While we're back in town, we'll discuss if there's any way we can convince Mr. Gatekeeper.

"No, I didn't know it would be so hard to convince them."

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm worried."

I'm also quite worried about going to the woods every day.

Mr. Druid is with me, though he's a little reluctant.

"Ciel, it's fine here. Thanks."

"Nya-yay."

I grunted my throat and rubbed my face against my body.

And then I sola my usual greeting and ran away.

"Is that it? Sola, you're not responding today."

I see Sola over Mr. Druid's head, but to the point of pulling a little.

Usually after Ciel licks me, I jump around.

"Sounds like it. Is it time to get used to it?

Hey, I miss not seeing that reaction.

It was funny.

"Sora, it's time to get back in the bag"

"Pu ~"

Hmm?

Could it be sleepy?

"Sola, could you possibly be sleepy?

"Pu ~"

I had a drink, and then I was playing quite a bit with Ciel.

Maybe I'm tired.

Ask Mr. Druid to give in and gently put Sola in the grate bag from his head.

"I'm sleepy, so I guess I just didn't jump around?

"It's possible."

Return to town and head to Mr. Druid's father's shop.

Is the store owner ready?

"Morning."

"Oh, Druid. Long time no see."

When I walked into the store, a woman had a store number.

Given his apparent age, is it Mr. Druid's mother?

"Mother. Ah, it's been a while"

I almost sprayed Mr. Druid's nervous voice a little.

I pressed my mouth in a hurry, but I felt my gaze so I kept my face to the side for a moment.

"Oh, it's you. My stupid sons are taking care of me. Sorry for the inconvenience."

Stupid son, there have been two.

One of them is always just unilaterally angry.

Annoying when I say annoying, but I don't care because I treat you like a drunk.

Mr. Druid tells me something I don't know, so I'm being taken care of.

"Nice to meet you, Ivy. I'll take care of Mr. Druid."

You can ignore the other one.

"Hehe, you're a lovely lady"

Eh!

This is the first time anyone I've ever met has had sex with me!

The woman panics a little because I gave her a surprised look.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Uh."

"No, I'm fine. I was surprised because it was the first time someone had spotted my gender."

"Oh, really? I did think he was a boy when I saw him. My husband told me about it. But if you look properly, she's a pretty girl. No doubt about it. Right. Druid?

Oh, speaking of which, when did you find out about Mr. Druid?

"Ahhh. Right."

That's a huge bar-reading reply.

"Druid? You didn't know?

"No, because I know now"

When a woman sighs, Mr. Druid makes an excuse in haste.

Never seen a Mr. Druid like this before.

It's fresh somewhere.

"Damn, this is why the men"

"No, that's why I know."

Put some effort into your lips.

Shit, it's going to spray.

Ivy, your shoulders are shaking as much as you want.

"Ha ha ha. Mr. Druid, please don't speak up even though you're trying."

No, you can't.

I laughed.

"What? Is something wrong?

Looks like the owner's here.

Manage to keep the laughter down.

"Good Morning"

"Oh, don't ask me for a favor today"

"Nice to meet you"

"Dad, don't tell Ivy anything too unscrupulous."

Mr. Druid doesn't seem nervous today either.

Or it looks like the tension was successfully relaxed in an earlier conversation.

Good.

"I know. So, I'm sorry, could you cook 'Kome'?

I see.

You forgot to tell me how to cook.

"Yes. Uh, where should I cook?

This is a store, so I don't think so.

"The place is in the cooking area behind the store, please. And I need you to tell me how to cook it, okay?

"Yes, no problem"

I head to the cooking area with Mr. Druid while the store owner guides me.

When I went to the back of the store, there was a fairly spacious cooking area.

Wow.

"Fire's over there"

Looking in the direction pointed by the store owner, the stove seems to be able to place a large pot as well.

That's good.

"I'll get you ready."

"Oh, please"

When the work began, the store owner stood next to him and took the note.

Sometimes they ask me questions, so I try my best to remember and answer them but I don't know if they really fit.

"I still don't know much about it, either."

"No, no problem if you just answer this"

Good.

Wait for the 3 of us to cook the rice, but I am anxious because time is a sensation.

"I think it's okay now, but I'm anxious because I cooked more than usual"

"Hahaha, if you fail, you should cook again. There's only a lot of Kome."

The store owner laughs luxuriously and opens the lid of the pan.

Ugh, thrilling.

Borrow a large spoon and gently stir the rice.

"Oh, that sounds good"

Good.

The amount cooked was quite different from yesterday, and the pot grew so I was quite anxious.

But I cooked it right!

I'm pretty happy with this.

"Can you make me the 'grilled rice balls' I was saying yesterday? I don't care if you're free to use the seasoning right here."

That's what I've been saying and putting out, tons of bins.

"Amazing. Is it all seasoning?

"Oh, sauces and seasonings from villages and towns everywhere."

That's a lot of shop-like stuff.

As Mr. Druid said he was a 'hard worker', I guess he's the one who's built up a lot of effort.

Because each bin has a taste feeling written down.

Mr. Druid, is that someone you respect?

I'm so happy to be able to make sauces with someone like that.
