Episode 206 [Base 3]
Then, the four of us each created a key to our base so that we could go whenever we wanted.
I thought about giving it to my sister, but she refused, saying, ``I can't take it because it's Jin-kun's base.''
It's not that he doesn't like going to the base, so he said he would go if one of us invited him.
"That's why we decided to have our base in the royal capital."
"Finally. Now, I can relieve my anxiety that Jin and the others will disappear someday."
A few days after purchasing the base, I came to report to the princess.
I told her the location since I might be staying there in the future, and the princess was a little surprised and said, ``You bought a pretty nice place.''
“If I recall correctly, this house was originally built for six silver-class adventurers to carry out their activities, but a fight broke out among them and the building was sold without being used much.It has been so many years since it was built. Besides, it's close to the main road, so it must have been quite expensive."
"Well, we've always been saving money for that. We've been staying at Ricardo's inn, and food doesn't cost that much."
Even if that's not the case, I receive regular requests from the princess to subjugate the Demon King's army, so I'm not worried about money.
"So that's all for our report, but what do you think about the hero?"
"It's going well. I've already passed the dragon's test, and I'm currently training to control the power I gained from that test."
“Wow, you’ve already progressed to that point.”
I see, it looks like you were able to overcome the trials of the dragon tribe just like in the game, although in the game you didn't have any special training to control your power.
The heroes of this world are probably doing their special training with peace of mind because the capital is protected by the dragon nation.
After that, after talking with the princess, I teleported from the royal castle and came to the base.
On days when there are no plans, Ren usually stays at this base for research, and occasionally Chloe and the others train in the garden.
“Well, I also have some free time, so I thought I’d study cooking, which I’ve been neglecting for a while.”
I had solved Gin's biggest problem, Fioro, and I was thinking of trying various things from now on.
As a first step, I decided to start studying cooking, which I had previously left to Ren.
First of all, I bought a few cookbooks and tried making some dishes according to the instructions.
"...Well, it's not as delicious as Ren's, but it's normal."
It wasn't as delicious as I thought it would be, but since I didn't make any mistakes, I was able to make a meal that was good enough to eat.
"Hmm, well, I'll just have to keep improving my skills, but it's too hard to eat by myself...I think I'll ask Rius to eat it for me."
“Kyu~?”
When I called Rius over and handed him the food on a plate, he tilted his head and looked like he didn't know if it was okay to eat.
When I asked Rius, ``Would you like to eat it?'', he happily started eating.
I felt a little guilty because I felt like I was responsible for disposing of the leftovers, but the amount was a bit unreasonable for one person to eat.
From now on, if I don't take into consideration the amount of ingredients used in each dish, I feel like I'll end up eating too much and not being able to move.
“I would be able to study faster if there was someone to eat for me, but there is no one there...Chloe and the others probably have to learn how to cook themselves...”
As I was thinking about this, Rius pulled my clothes and tried to tell me something.
“Kyuu, kyuu, kyuu!”
"Hmm, on top of me? What do you mean on top of me... maybe on my sisters?"
“Kyu!”
When Rius guessed what he was trying to convey with his gesture, he happily responded.
I'm sure the sisters will eat it, but I'm still a little nervous about having them eat my not-so-great cooking...
But even so, I can't let the food I make go to waste, so it's worth asking for it once.
With that in mind, I decided to stop studying today, return to the inn, and wait in my room until my sisters returned.
“Is it my role to eat Jin-kun’s cooking?”
``Yeah, I've been thinking about learning how to cook for a while now, and when I first saw it, I realized that there was no one to eat the food I made, and there was a limit to what I could do on my own, so I guess that's fine. I was wondering if you could get your sister to eat it?”
When I heard that, my sister murmured, ``Jin-kun's home-cooked food...'', then firmly grabbed my hand and said, ``Leave that role to me!'' with an enthusiastic look.
In response to her words, Lulu-nee, who was listening to the story with her, looked at her in shock.
“Didn’t you say you were going on a diet because you ate too much food recently?”
"It's just my imagination. Besides, wouldn't it be weird if I lost the opportunity to eat Jin-kun's cooking just because I gained a little weight?"
"..."
When she answered Lulu-nee with a serious look, Lulu-nee let out a sigh and asked, ``Can we eat too?''
“Of course, the more people there, the better.”
After that, she told me that tomorrow was her day off and that she would come and help me.
