I was a bit surprised to hear about the reputation of Gina and the others when I delivered the materials for the labyrinth to Marie's place. It seems like things are going in the right direction, but it also seems like there will be more trouble. After distributing the materials, Dine takes me to the liquor store, and our first day off from the labyrinth passes with a party in the middle of the day.

"Oops!"

"Are you okay?"

"Hmm? Oh, yeah, Kikka, I'm fine."

As I gently stroke Kikka's head, who looks up at me with concern, I think back to yesterday. Yesterday's banquet was terrible. The banquet with the six great spirits: ....... I got caught up in the small room and drank too much, and as Nomos said, I got tangled up with If who had too much time on his hands.

I was happy to be in a headlock and complain about a certain part of my voluptuousness on my face, but I didn't expect to be poured alcohol into my face while in that position. In Japan, it would be a matter of lawsuit for alcohol harassment for sure.

I got through it by promising that I could be as rough as I wanted in the next labyrinthine search, but by the time I was done convincing him, he was drinking heavily. And because I drank so much, they added a barrel of sake to my drink.

And the most dangerous thing was that I forgot all about the promise I made to Marie. I remembered at the very last minute that I had promised to pick up the meat and feathers from the warehouse at night.

I was wobbly and unsteady on my feet, but Sylphy decided to let me have a drink since it was my day off, and I did my best to drag Dine, who didn't want to go, out of the house and headed for the warehouse. I was so drunk that Martha worried about me when I left the inn and Sonia worried about me when I arrived at the warehouse, but I did my best.

I managed to refuse Sonia's kindness in offering to pick up the materials and take the carriage out to the warehouse. If I had not refused, the vibration of the carriage would have made me spit out alcohol like a fountain. I'm proud of myself for being able to make a sound decision even when I was drunk. I don't remember what happened after we got back to the inn. .......

I send the spirits back, clear out the barrels, and summon Belle and the others. As I go to Sarah's room to prepare breakfast while listening to Belle's report on the Fountain House, even Kikka is worried about me because I'm dizzy from the hangover.

I told Kikka that I was fine, but to tell the truth, the smell of the food brought for breakfast made me feel like my stomach was going to reflux. I smiled a weak smile, and Moon flew over my head and landed on the ground.

What? What a relief to feel at ease: .......

"Moon, are you curing my hangover?"

I can't see it, so I can't be sure, but my head feels like it's nodding to me, because the pulls are getting more and more intense.

"Mmm, he said he's fixing Yuta."

Bell translated for me. I knew Moon was keeping me in good shape. I thank Bell and relax, letting Moon take care of me. Slowly, the languid sensation leaves me and my headache lightens. I feel very warm and comfortable.

Moon leaves my head and floats in front of me. My headache and achy body feel normal, or ...... even better than normal. The spirit of life is the best. No more hangovers...that's a dream come true.

"Moon, thank you. I feel so much better.

I stroke Moon around while thanking him, and enjoy his moo moo moo. Oh, Marco and Kikka look sad. They want to eat breakfast as soon as possible. Taking advantage of my improved physical condition, I quickly serve them breakfast, and breakfast begins.

Gina and Sara are not here because they have gone to learn how to cook at Mr. Toruku's place. As for me, I think they should take it easy on their day off, but they are having too much fun to waste time resting. She has a day off in the afternoon, so is that a problem? After breakfast, I ask Marco and Kikka about yesterday's holiday over a leisurely cup of tea.

"Well, we went to look at things to put in our room yesterday. Did you find anything nice?"

Gina gave them all the money she had earned, minus the amount she had taken to her parents' diner in its raw state, and told Sarah and the others to keep a tenth of the money for themselves. I also told her to use the money to learn how to shop, and she went out yesterday. They are good, diligent, and hardworking kids.

I didn't really understand what was going on. Master, what else should I put in my room besides what I need?"

Marco twists his head and asks. That's a tough question.

"Marco. In all the time you've been looking around the store, have you ever seen anything that you thought might be a good idea? Don't just judge by what you need or don't need, it's okay to buy something if it appeals to you. Even if you don't need it as much as you think you do and you don't want it, it's still a learning experience."

I feel like I'm saying some pretty good things.

"But it's a waste to buy something you don't need and waste it. ......

"Well, I guess Marco and his friends understand the importance of money well enough to think so. But now they can earn their own money. It is better to learn to spend money not only for living but also for having fun. But that doesn't mean that you should waste your money completely, so you should try to buy what you want with a balance in mind."

"Hmm, it's hard to say, but I understand."

Marco frowns and ponders. Very serious. I'm trying to say something nice, but I wonder if it resonated with him.

"Did Kikka buy anything?"

Kikka walked over to the bed and brought the doll that was under the pillow.

"Kikka got this," she said.

The doll is held up in front of me, smiling. Is it a little girl doll made of painted wood and dressed in clothes? It seems simplistic, but it's not the same condition as the Japanese ones. It may seem a little scary, but it is a somewhat charming doll.

Belle and her friends are also interested in Kikka's dolls, observing them with great interest. Should we prepare similar dolls for the children's room? He is a little worried and asks Kikka a question.

"Wow, it's very well made. What is its name?"

"Name?"

Kikka is looking at me like I'm a geek. Huh? Don't girls name their dolls? Even Kikka started to worry. Marco and Kikka are of different genders and ages, but their worries are somewhat similar.

While I was playing with Belle and the others while watching over the worried siblings, Gina and Sarah returned. They must have had a fulfilling time, judging from their satisfied looks.

"Gina, Sara, thank you for your hard work. Did you have a good time?"

"Ah, Master! I'm home. I learned a lot.

"I learned a lot and had fun too. I learned how to cut garlic faster!"

You've gotten faster at chopping garlic ...... Torque's cooking, you use a lot of garlic.

"Good for you. I'll thank you later, too.

"Thank you, Master. Oh, by the way, Mr. Toruku was wondering about the ingredients you said you would bring.

Oh, by the way, you told Martha you were bringing the ingredients. I wish I could have given it to her when I came back from the warehouse yesterday, but I was so tongue-tied that I didn't have time to do so. If you're expecting me, I'll bring it to you as soon as possible.

"I don't want to keep you waiting, so I'll go get them. I have something for Gina and Marco.

I'll give Gina and Marco their gear. I can't wait to see Gina in her s*xy costume. We leave Sarah's room and talk to Martha first. In such a case, the order is very important.

"Martha, I have some new ingredients. I'm planning to have some for dinner tonight and a little for Mr. Toruku's research, what do you think?"

I won't be able to get Mr. Toruku to cook for me in earnest until after we return from the next labyrinth. This time I will give him some Emperor Bird meat.

"Thanks for everything. I'm fine, so if you're okay with it, I'd appreciate it if you'd give it to her. My husband is a little nervous.

Martha replies with a wry smile. Is this the state of a child before going on a field trip? Martha sends me to the back and I go to the kitchen by myself.

"Hello, Mr. Toruku. Are you okay?"

When I called out to him, he approached me at a fast pace. I felt like I'd been waiting for him.

"Yeah, no problem."

You can feel the anticipation in their eyes. My eyes are telling me to hurry up and get the ingredients, but I should thank Gina and the others first. I'm afraid they won't listen to me if I give them the ingredients.

"Thank you very much. Gina and Sara are very happy that Mr. Toruku told them about us. I hope we haven't caused you too much trouble.

"Hmm? Yeah, you're both motivated and hard working. I appreciate you helping me out too."

No, no, no, no. His eyes are on the bag. They're not focused on the conversation even before the food is served. Let's thank him next time and get the food out. While Mr. Toruku's eyes are fixed on me, I take out a piece of Emperor Bird meat.

This is Emperor Bird meat. Please wait until I return from the labyrinth before you cook it for me. Please eat this meat except for our dinner.

"I've heard stories about this, but is this Emperor Bird meat ......?"

Mr. Toruku freezes while staring at the meat. He is probably thinking of cooking while observing the meat.

"Well, I'm looking forward to dinner. Now, if you'll excuse me."

"Oh, ......."

I leave the kitchen after hearing the reply that my heart is not in the kitchen.

"Well, Martha. I gave him the meat and he froze up, but could you keep an eye on him?

"Oh, I'm sorry. I sometimes freeze up when I start thinking about cooking. When I think of a dish I want to make, I'll start working on it, so you don't have to worry about it.

"I see. Well, when Mr. Torque gets going, please tell him I'm looking forward to dinner."

"Yes."

I leave Martha and return to Sarah's room. Now, here's where the game begins, in a sense. The magic shield I'm going to give to Marco will be fine because all I can think of is how happy he'll be. But I'm afraid of how Gina will react to the s*xy costume I'm going to give her.

The color is black, which is fine, but the slit is quite bold. I wonder if I can manage it, since the costume is not as severe as Dorojo-sama's.

We'll just have to push on with the dark dragon, which has great defense and is effective against mental anomalies. Good luck me!
