I left Mr. Diola to Toya, who told me what to do, and me and Halka quietly left the scene.

Who am I going to say hello to next, looking around...

"Mr. Nao!

It was Aela who came running over with Patapata.

I respond to Aela like that with my hands up, too.

"Um, are you okay...?

At the end of Aela's gaze, who looks worried, is Diora, who wraps the crumbs around her.

"Uh, okay, no problem. It seems like a hard job, so I'm sure it's accumulating a lot. Yeah."

Other than that, the specific gravity seemed to be greater, but the area was through.

"More than that, Mr. Aela, I'm sorry you had to help me. You're a customer."

"No! Because it's about meals and I'm not making a big deal out of it. But rice food sounds interesting. Unfortunately, it seems difficult to get it out in the store..."

"Near here, I don't know because I can't get it. Thank you for your help, Luce."

"I can only cater, because I'm a caterer. I appreciate the delicious food."

Aela leaks her sigh as if she were frightened at Luce for saying such a thing and straining her chest.

"I think Luce should learn to cook a little bit. I'm losing to the much younger Hulkas... no, because it's an awkward level to compare."

"What is' all the time '? Just a little bit. I don't want to be told by Aela, who looks much older than Yuki."

"Become. If you're an elf, to this extent, it's a bit of a range! And the look, because it's an elf - then maybe not, but it's a range of personalities!

Aela sees Hulka as chilling in the middle of her words and insists as she subtly changes her words.

Yeah, no matter what you look like, the exterior is a child...... no, it's a girl.

"Personality, hey. Then my cooking arm, too, is a personality. First of all, isn't Mr. Hulka's cooking professional? I'm not even a cook. Me and Mr. Hulka. It's definitely mine."

Hmm, and his nose is also rough. That's what he claims to be, but in fact, the word, that's not so wrong.

Sourcing ingredients to use in cooking, recipes for cooking it.

Considering them, only some people who can afford to cook elaborate dishes are able to do so.

Besides, as you can see from the fact that there are many stalls lined up if you go out into the city, quite a few people eat out basically.

That's not a delicious meal like Aela's shop either, but a level substitute for getting in the stomach for now. That's common.

It's not easy in this world where there are restrictions on the availability of spices and seasonings to make delicious dishes.

That's why it may not be so uncommon to be someone who can't cook much.

"We agree on that, too. I was going to bring you some pretty expensive liquor, but you don't have any body in the knob. Isn't that a level dish? How much the hell are you spending?

"Mr. Gantz, and, Mr. Simon,"

"Oh, thank you for inviting me today."

"No, because I'm looking after you. But you didn't spend that much money, did you? Most of the stuff I've prepared myself."

Incidentally, of all the dishes lined up today, the most expensive is white rice.

It's not that popular, so it's mainly us ex-Japanese who consume it.

Conversely, meat dishes, which are generally costly dishes, are plainly the least costly.

We just got so much meat we couldn't eat the other day.

"Adventurers are strong because they can do that. Prepare ingredients that the common people cannot prepare."

"No, that's not all. Your culinary skills are professional, no, even the pros have never been this far. Yes, the lady there is right."

"I'm glad you said that. I think Natsuki and the others will be happy."

"It's true. - By the way, I heard you make good liquor?

"Eh, that's..."

Looking behind Chilari and Mr. Simon, Tommy was holding his head back with his hands together.

Did you talk?

It's not good in itself, but you didn't say anything about the original world, did you?

"I can't say if it tastes good, but you're not planning on making booze"

"Right, right. Besides, we're going to work together, okay?

"Whoa, me too. Instead -"

"Let him drink if he can," he said.

Two carpenters and a blacksmith will work together, which helps.

Especially Mr. Simon. I don't know, I'm going to need woodworking products.

Turning his gaze to peek at Hulka, Hulka also nods and opens his mouth.

"There are limited raw materials, so I can't offer too many, if that's okay"

"That doesn't matter. If it tastes good, we can pick up the ingredients."

"They have quite a handout, too."

Really? I'm exporting fancy furniture.

If it's also a rice production area to ship to, have the rice brought to you when you come to pick up the furniture, how could that be possible?

"Um, Mr. Nao, what's new alcohol?

"I got rice, so I thought I'd make a little something I could make with it. As you make the seasoning."

"Seasoning! Interested!

"I'm interested in alcoholics."

It should be said that Aela was the seasoner and Luce ate the alcohol.

"If it works, I'll hem it."

"Yes! Be sure!

◇ ◇ ◇

The next thing I did was at Mr. Ishka's.

When Mr. Ishka noticed this one, he lowered his head deeply when he immediately placed the object in his hand on the table.

"Thank you, Nao, Khalka, for today"

"No, never mind. Mary and I have been taking care of her lately."

Even now, Mary and Meetier are at a table prepared for the orphanage, eating food with the other children. Like competing.

Nothing. You two don't have to be desperate to eat right now, but I can eat enough later... if you eat with friends, does that mean it's delicious?

Camping rice.

"The Marys are rather more helpful to us. They teach their children how to handle weapons for free."

"No, even from us, it's a welcome thing for both of us to have friends of our generation."

Mary, who is usually an adult, and when she is with the children in the orphanage, sometimes shows a slightly age-appropriate side, and the truth is, we were relieved.

Maybe in the future Mary and the others will throw an adventurer party with the kids here and get married or something.

Give me your daughter, purposeful.

At that time, like my stubborn father, I'll be stuck as a trial - Toya.

If it's me, I'm going to lose in health, and that's why, you can't just magically blow it up.

Uh, but you don't have a beast man among the orphans.

They're the two people who grew up in environments where the Beast Man isn't around, so you might not really care...... what do you think?

"I appreciate you saying that, but I need some kejime. Stay with us for a bit."

When Mr. Ishka said that and slapped his hands on the bread, the children who were desperately eating the food stopped their hands and were sassy aligned.

And lowered his head simultaneously.

"" "Thank you!

"Oh, oh, never mind. You can eat as much as you want, okay?

"" "Yes!

When I replied with a little surprise to the beautifully aligned move, the kids returned the aligned answer again.

When I turn my gaze to Mr. Ishka, she nods at the orphans.

At the same time confirming that, the children resumed their meals when they returned to the table again.

... No, if you look closely, Ange and Sydney, clerics and cleric apprentices are also crossed among the children?

Regardless of the apprenticeship, it is true that Ange should have been introduced to the Orthodox Clergy.

It looks good to be in an adult group, but maybe it's because you grew up in an orphanage, or you're more conscious.

"Sorry, I haven't grown up yet."

You noticed ahead of the gaze directed at me, Mr. Ishka smiles a little shy.

"No, if you enjoy it, nothing's wrong."

"I'm afraid so. Our food is just like the kids, so they're pretty good too..."

"Oh, that's..."

Two cleric apprentices, Kane and Sydney, are men who are about junior high school eaters.

If there was a line of meat you wouldn't normally eat, you'd eat that.

My stomach is just chopped.

If it's that environment, I'll eat it too.

I usually ate well, so if I went all-you-can-eat BBQ, I would have eaten until it was painful.

I became an elf and a snack, but what a middle-aged and high school boy I was supposed to eat.

"Eat as much as you like. If it doesn't seem enough, you can take it from that table over there.... I think they're enjoying their drinks."

Yuki and Natsuki are leaving, and Toya is hanging out with Mr. Diola's stupidity as she drinks with her little one.

The three Gunz only praised the food for being delicious and eating well, but alcohol is the main thing, and age is the age.

You won't be able to eat like a young man except Tommy.

"Thank you. But I don't think this table is going to be empty at all, do you?

What is subtly questionable is the presence of Mary and Meatier?

I wonder where those two are in there, because I eat so much.

"- And it was. Mary, Meatier, hey."

To my voice, Mary and Meetier looked back at me at the same time and rushed to swallow what was in her mouth with the same trick, rushing this way.

"Yes, what is it?

"I'm here!

and while responding, his gaze is not subtly off the table where the dish is listed.

I think I've had enough... well, let's just get some errands done.

"I've got your protective gear I was ordering. It's in the living room."

"" Is it true (what?)!

Quickly, Mary and the others rushed right into the house.

I didn't have to rush to see anything... he was happier than the food.

"Looks like you couldn't wait."

"Of, sounds like"

"Is that new protective equipment?

"Yep. Because Mary and the others are now fighting for themselves."

While talking to others, Mary and the others ran back again.

Now wear a white iron clasp, reflecting the light and glittering.

I thought you were coming for us, so I ran straight over to the orphanage kids.

The kids who saw it gathered around the two of them and said, 'Wow!' or 'Cool!' or so he slaps Bashibashi and Claiko.

And both of you, with a proud look on your chest.

Honestly, I don't know about the attitude to show off, but even if the kids seem envious, they don't look unexpectedly negative...?

"Much... you bought good stuff, didn't you? Isn't it right for you?

"If it's just the two of us making money, then you appreciate the hard work of Marys,"

"It's pretty expensive, but it's as far as we can get."

As a matter of fact, there was an argument between us as to whether to make the material of the two claddies white iron or attribute steel.

If safety is a top priority, you can order a clasp of attributed steel, but converting the activity of Marys into monetary value is not even at the level of reach of a clasp of white iron.

Nothing, we don't have a problem with giving money in and of itself, but since we don't have any more gear at the moment, we also had the opinion that 'the joy of getting better gear on our own' would be lost.

And there is a part of that opinion that I can quite agree with.

Again, we, too, were happy when we got our new gear, and some parts of it motivated us to work.

Of course, there was a part about whether safety should be hung on the scale, but at the end of the day, Toya's manly statement, "If it's dangerous, I'll stand up and protect myself," was decided on white iron gear.

"I'm rather surprised that the kids aren't jealous of you two..."

"Because those kids know there's no point in comparing themselves to others. Thank you for what you can give yourself now. That's all."

………

For the first time in a long time, Hulka and I will remain silent on the remarks that remind us that Mr. Ishka is a cleric.

It is true that in an environment called an orphan, even if you are jealous of someone more privileged than yourself, it is always like living in jealousy of others.

That would never be a good thing, but it's actually hard.

But in fact, the orphans and Marys are friends, and is that also Mr. Ishka's arm?

It would be difficult to educate a child......

And that certainly has a good impact on the Marys as well.

Halka and I looked at each other and thanked Ishka for the good fortune we had.
