Chapter 112: After the Banquet


    On the morning after the banquet, the drunk passed out men sprawled all over the za looked like heaps of corpses. These men were dragged back home by their wives.


    We withdrew from the banquette into the night, but it was a rare entertainment for everyone in the vige, so they seem to have enjoyed themselves well into the morning.


    While brushing my teeth outside the carriage, I watched Vanga-san being forced along by Martha-san.


    「……G, good morning. <em>Urp</em>.」


    「Morning. Are you okay? Got a hangover?」


    Who came out of the carriage unsteadily was Akane-san. She looks like she’s suffering from a hangover. Should I bring out some medicine?


    「<em>Uuoh</em>,st night, did I say anything weird?」


    「<em>Un</em>, it’s alright.」


    「Ho, t-then that’s fine.」


    「A, awawa, g-good morning!」


    「Lulu-chan, good morning. Did you sleep well?」


    Lulu-chan woke up in a fluster.


    Yesterday, she seemed to have been having fun with the vige children. She was probably so hyped up until night that she went to bedte and overslept.


    「Y-yes, I ended up wakingte. I’m sorry!」


    「It’s okay, it’s okay. Everyone woke upte today, after all.」


    I told Lulu-chan, who kept bowing her head in apology, toe eat breakfast.


    Lulu-chan hasn’t yet broken out of the customs and values of her ve life in Sydnia. That’s why we must gradually limatize her.


    I went back into the carriage and ate breakfast with everyone at the table. Today’s breakfast was made by Maria and Marnie. It was a simply bacon, eggs, sd, bread, and soup, but it was more of a luxurious breakfast in this world. Truthfully, I wanted coffee after the meal, but that’s impossible right now so I’m enduring.


    Even though Lulu-chan disyed her opposition to eating at the same table with us at first, she’s now able to eat with us. She eats silently, but it’s clear to see from her happily wagging tail that she was enjoying it.


    「Now then, what are your ns for the day?」


    As we were drinking tea and rxing after having finished breakfast, Sophia asked for today’s ns. I didn’t have anything nned specifically so I gave it a little bit of thought.


    Incidentally, Akane’s hangover was fixed when I casted 『Cure』 magic on her and she drank hangover medicine.


    「I’ve already achieved my goal of meeting with Vanga-san and Martha-san, so I think I’ll spend my time leisurelyter. That’s why, you girls can spend your time freely if you have something you want to do.」


    「Kaede is requested by Martha-san and the others.」


    「A-ah, don’t over do it.」


    It would appear Kaede was being asked for thread by the vige wives.


    「I will forage medicinal herbs before touching up the cabin.」


    「That’s alright, but bring Titan as your guard.」


    Laeva decided to collect medicinal herbs around Bohd vige.


    「Maria and Marnie, is there anything you want to do?」


    「We n to go hunting around Bohd vige together with Akane-san and Lulu-chan.」


    I looked at Akane-san and she nodded.


    「I wanted to be taught by Maria-san and Marnie-san on how to hunt.」


    「<em>Un</em>, there are few dangerous monsters in this area so it’s alright. An irregr mighte out once in a while, but it’ll be fine if Maria is there.」


    I already know that Sophia will stay by my side without her saying anything. Sophia and I both understand that so there’s no need to ask her.


    That day, I gave Bobon-san a small portion of mithril and adamantite, then I expanded the protective walls of the vige. Compared to the walls of Wedgefort, the scale of these protective walls can be done even in my spare time.


    Afterwards, when Laeva returned from her herb gathering, together we began to renovate the cabin rather than reinforcing it.


    An extra cabin where Akane-san and Lulu-chan could stay was added to the small cabin where our party would stay.


    「Takumi-sama, this is already a reconstruction.」


    「Yeah, that’s what I was thinking too.」


    The cabin had a lot of ground, so we ended up getting carried away. The original model of the cabin is gone.


    「How about having some lunch after we finish up the interior?」


    「Yes.」


    That day in Bohd vige, where time flowed slowly, passed even slower. Because of the banquet yesterday, the hungover men got out of bed in the afternoon and finished the minimum amount of work required before returning home to sleep again.


    Although Bohd had considerable development, the vige still had no bar. They were keenly aware of how much alcohol was stocked in the small stores and in the vige. That’s why, with us bringing inrge amounts of ale and wine to yesterday’s banquet, they couldn’t control themselves.


    「「We’re back!」」


    「「We have returned.」」


    Maria, Marnie, Akane-san, and Lulu-chan came back from their hunt.


    「Caught some prey?」


    「Yes, it’s all Horned Rabbits though.」


    Maria took out Horned Rabbits one after the other from her Magic Bag.


    「Ooh, that’s a lot. Let’s all dismantle them.」


    We divided the Horned Rabbits to ten per person and began preparing dinner.


    「U-umm, would it be alright if you could teach me how to cook as well?」


    「Yes, of course. Then how about we make Horned Rabbit stew together?」


    「I’ll make the sd then.」


    「I will be making grilled horned rabbit skewers, so may I ask you to take out some soy sauce please, Master Husband?」


    「Will soy sauce, sugar, and mirin be okay?」


    It seems Marnie will be skewering the horned rabbits and then grilling them. The meat of a horned rabbit has a simr texture to chicken so it would go well.


    When dinner wasplete, Kaede finally came back.


    「Master! So pooooped~!」


    She plopped on my back and embraced me.


    「Good job. Martha-san and the vige wives demanded threads from you. huh?」


    「Uh huh~ “We don’t know when you’ll be back again” they said, and stuck to Kaede really stubbornly.」


    「What is Kaede-chan’s “thread”?」


    While I was gently stroking Kaede’s head, Akane-san’s curiosity had been piqued by the thread.


    「Spider Silk is the highest ss fiber in this world. In particr, Kaede can produce threads varying in properties like strength, thickness, and sticity, and she also weaves stretchable cloth so it’s in great demand here and there.」


    「Does that mean all of Iruma-san and everyone’s clothes areー」


    「Yup, it’s all Kaede’s spider silk.」


    Akane-san’s eyes sparkled.


    I learned from our conversation that the clothes we were wearing, from the materials to the design, had caught her eye ever since we were in Volton.


    「All of our underwear are like that too.」


    「！！ M, me too, may I have some too?!」


    Akane-san took Maria’s hand when she mentioned underwear, appealing that she wanted them for herself too. The underwear Akane-san was wearing in Japan had already disintegrated, and she despaired at the underwear sold in this world.


    After that, when she learned that the girls’ underwear were just like those sold in Japan and that they weren’t inferior, it seemed like a force made her prostate herself to Kaede and Maria. Far from inferior, they were applied with various enchantments, so they were far more efficient than the underwear in Japan.


    In the end, Akane-san and Lulu-chan’s underwear would be made starting tomorrow while they discuss designs and color.


    At dinner, Vanga-san’s family came and everyone enjoyed dinner together.


    The second night at Bohd Vige went far into the night.
