The morning sun peeked over the horizon, illuminating the city from a low angle and casting long shadows on the buildings and trees. While the sun was just peeking out, I was cooking in my kitchen, which is actually something that I rarely do, but have been doing for the past few days.
I was making a stir-fry of meat, vegetables, and mushrooms. The mushrooms I use for this dish are the 『White Lady』 I harvested from the garden forest and they are very tasty.
「It’s a little heavy for a breakfast menu, but for her, it’s like a dinner after a hard day’s work.」
It’s a very poisonous plant, but when processed, it is said to have the same value as a stack of gold coins. Therefore it will definitely raise a commotion if I were to bring it to a food stall and have them cook it for me, so I took it upon myself to wield the frying pan.
「Alright, it’s done!」
I put half the contents of the pan on the two white plates I laid out on the floor previously. After adding soup and bread in addition to the dish, I headed to the living room, where a slumped-over Cool-san was carrying a caterpillar and a dung beetle on her back.
「I am sorry to have you make me breakfast every morning.」
The cool-beauty woman with shampoo scent raises herself up with the two animals still on her back and bows her head apologetically.
The reason why she’s here at my place is to take a shower and change clothes after the late night and early morning 『Fake Panty-less Troupe』 activities.
Her house is in the Middletown area, which is far from the Downtown area.
「Is your body okay?」
After this, she would sleep at her own house and then go out to work at the store from afternoon to evening. Then she would come back to my place in the evening and go out to midnight downtown for the Fake Panty-less Troupe activities.
She has been doing this for more than a week now. It wouldn’t be surprising if she was exhausted.
「No, there’s no problem at all. I feel full of energy and stamina thanks to the mushroom dishes you cook for me, boss.」
Cool-san dismissed my concerns with a blank expression.
『Massage~!』
『How is the massage?』
Imosuke and Dangoro said after climbing up to her shoulders, probably because they wanted to prove their contribution.
The reason they were walking around on Cool-san’s back earlier was to 『massage their tired subordinate』, as they said.
I don’t know how effective it was, but Cool-san began to politely thank them.
「I’ve also come to realize it too but, these mushrooms sure are amazing. No wonder they’re so expensive.」
I nodded in agreement as I watched the caterpillar and dung beetle pinning her face from both sides.
On the first day of trying it out, the mushroom power made it impossible for me to urinate without splattering everywhere. It was like squeezing the mouth of a hose to spray water and being unable to control it fully, so the water flew diagonally sideways or spread out vertically.
『When in trouble, visit Light Cruiser-sensei.』
This, by the way, was the solution I came up with in the end. I immediately visited the store and told her about the situation, then the neat and clean beauty gladly agreed to take care of my excess vigor.
(But thinking back to it, I feel bad about it.)
It was a surprise for me too, but it just won’t stop no matter how many times I let out. After doing countless plays without a break, she finally stopped moving with her eyes and mouth opened wide and her tongue stuck out.
I was already prepared to get a scolding, so I sat on the bed and waited for her to come to wake up. However, as one would expect from a professional, Light Cruiser-sensei said something different from what I expected.
『I cannot let anyone else take on this role. They’re going to lose their mind from this.』
She let out those words while breathing heavily and added that she would handle my mushroom situation on a full-time basis until it subsided.
(Then let’s have the same menu as Cool-san tomorrow, too.)
The best professional is saying that she’s willing to be entrusted with my troubles. It should be fine to let myself indulge in that a little bit longer.
Thus I decided to hold off my pan to abstain from eating the mushroom. The next morning, I eat the same dish as Cool-san, restrain myself, and endure during the day, then let it all out to defeat Light Cruiser-sensei in Jayanne at night.
(Well, it does cost me more money though.)
For the past week, Light Cruiser-sensei is physically unable to deal with any other customers than me. Therefore, the store is charging me the amount of a full day’s rent.
But I think she is worth more than that and since I was working during the day, it was no problem.
「By the way, how’s the operation going?」
「It was smooth sailing so far.」
I ask Cool-san as we enjoy our meal. The reason why I tilted my head at her immediate answer is because I still haven’t received any information about the enemy.
What makes her sure that everything is smooth sailing?
「It was a few days ago, but a virgin finally came to the store.」
She must have noticed my unconvinced look. Then she added and understood her reason.
(Ohh… Did the 90% discount plan work?)
According to her story, he was referred to her by a man to whom she had distributed flyers.
The difference of 90% discount is cut from Cool-san’s share, but I think that much wouldn’t be a problem for her, on the contrary, she would have been willing to pay double instead. In fact, she had initially said that she would do it for free.
(But I managed to stop her and suggested that she give a 90% discount instead.)
I have an inside theory that there is a big difference between getting it for free and paying to get it.
Those who are willing to pay any amount of money have the potential to be regular customers as their income increases. However, those who are unwilling to take money out of their wallets will not change even if they become richer, since they think they can get it for free.
「A few self-proclaimed virgins have also come to the store, but they have all been spotted by the store and chased away.」
I was intrigued by those words.
When she mentioned they were spotted by the store, I assume she means the concierge did. But how does the concierge, who doesn’t have the same virgin detector sense as the virgin-eater Unicorn, spot them?
「It’s not that difficult, you just know when you see one.」
Apparently, it is very difficult for an experienced person to pretend to be a virgin. They say that an air of theatricality inevitably seeps out of them.
(So it’s like an actor in staged shows or videos, huh?)
It became clearer after I compare it to the things from my previous life.
『Big sis, this is my first time doing this…』
How many times have I raised my eyebrows at the actor in school uniform behind the screen as he uttered such lines?
「Thank you for the meals. Now then, if you’ll excuse me.」
Cool-san finished her meal and left my house. I carry Imosuke and Dangorou to the garden forest, say a quick hello to Zaratan at the pond, and return to the kitchen to wash the dishes.
(I’ll have to patrol the highway with the Old Lady this afternoon. Then after sending Cool-san off in the evening, it’s playtime with Light Cruiser-sensei ft. mushroom power.)
As I washed the foam off the plates with water, I’m feeling satisfied with my fulfilling days.
