I'm so tired after going to the grocery store. Let's go back to the inn and get some rest.

...... Martha and Mr. Kark are busy moving around back at the inn. They look busy. I wonder why tomato sauce is so popular in Japan, though it is probably because of the tomato sauce. I'll ask them tomorrow morning.

Welcome back. Hold on a second."

Martha found me, called out to me, and came over after putting the food on the table.

"Hey, guys. What about dinner? Today I'm having pasta with meat sauce and pizza toast, which you taught me how to do."

"I was thinking of eating here, but it seems like a lot of work, doesn't it?"

I'm sorry, it's a bit crowded and with kids at your place, it might be difficult. How about I bring the food to your room?"

Hmm. It would be great if you could bring it to my room. If we ask for more food, we can feed Belle and the others.

"That would be great. The children's room is bigger. And, since I'm paying for it, can I have an additional four or so servings?"

"Sure, but do you really want that much food?"

Martha is surprised. I really wanted to add seven servings, but I gave up because it was just too crazy. I should tell her that the genie eats, right? ...... It's safer not to. They're going to be curious to see it.

"Well, they're growing up. Ha-ha-ha-ha."

I laugh and cover it up. You must be a big eater too, Martha. I eat a lot, too. He laughs merrily. He doesn't seem to mind too much. We pay the extra charge and go to Sarah's room.

I knock and Sara opens the door and welcomes me.

"Master. Welcome back. Welcome back.

"Yeah. I'm home. Everything okay?

Yes. There was no problem.

That's good.

Well, it hasn't been that long, and I'd be more afraid of a problem.

Welcome back... cue... welcome back... cue...

While I was talking with Sarah and the others, Bell and the others flew up to greet me. It made me feel warm and fuzzy. The corners of my mouth naturally turned up and I stroked them. The bells are now a tranquilizer.

"Hey, guys. We're having dinner in this room tonight.

However, there are two beds and a small table. It's a little cramped. When the food arrives, we'll stow the beds and set the table. A large family is a large family.

After talking with everyone for a while, Martha and Kark brought in the food. Did they bring the food in one big tray?

Naturally, the food did not fit on the small table, and some of it was placed on the bed on the tray.

Thank you very much. What should I do with the dishes?

"Well, I'll get her later, so if you could put her together for me, that would be great.

"Yes, sir."

Martha and Mr. Kark leave the room in a hurry, probably because they are busy. I urge the children, who are glued to their steaming bowls of rice, to move to the corner of the room and put one of the beds in the magic bag.

Oh, no. It's a little dusty.

Sylphy. Can you use the wind to gather the dust?" 

"Yes."

As soon as Sylphy replied, a gentle breeze blew through the room and all the dust gathered in one place. It's amazing, isn't it?

"Sylphy. Thank you."

I thanked Sylphy with a wave of my hand and took out a table and chairs in the center of the clean room and set out the food that had been brought to us.

He takes out the tableware from his magic bag and arranges the dishes on small plates. I also put up some of the food from the food stalls that I've stocked up on. Orc skewers would be fine.

.................. I'm afraid of the stares of everyone but Sylphy. Too many eyes are on the food. Especially the spirits don't need to eat, they need to calm down a bit. The pressure of the stares is making me hurry to pull out the meat skewers from Rain and the others, and finally they are ready to eat.

"Hey guys! You can eat!

As soon as I say my words, everyone except me, Sylphy, and Sara are trying to cook. It's like a battlefield. I guess this is what a big family looks like every day.

But it's a funny scene. Well, there are dolphins, a little fox, a little owl, and too much variety, but this chaotic scene of eating seems otherworldly, and in a way, I think it's a good thing.

"Hey, guys. If you need more, just let me know and I'll get you another plate of food from the food stall.

Marco, with his mouth full of food, nodded his head as he looked at us. Sara and Kikka are eating well too, and they are getting a little meatier ......?

Hmmm. I feel like I've put on some meat, but I can't really tell since I was skinny to begin with. I'll have to wait and see.

"Sylphie. How about a drink?"

"Oh, no?"

"Yeah. You flew me to the labyrinth city today, and it was a lot of work."

Hmm. I'll take that as a compliment.

At Sylphy's request, I take out a bottle of red wine and pour it into a glass wineglass specially made for Nomos. I'm tired too, so let's have a few drinks.

**

After a few drinks and a good night's sleep, I feel completely recovered from yesterday's fatigue. I'm still young. When I wake up, Sylphy and the others appear.

"Good morning, everyone.

"Yuta. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning.

I greet Sylphy and the others and wash my whole body as I change my clothes. Every time I think about it, this washing life magic is very useful. But I'd like to take a bath soon. I should think about building a bath in the land of the dead.

......? I wonder if ...... Dine or Nomos could help us find a hot water vein? I think it is possible to dig a hot spring with a pioneering tool. ...... No, if you ask Nomos, he might easily drill a hole to the hot water vein.

When I imagine myself in a hot spring, one thing bothers me. Will it really feel good to take a bath in a hot spring in the heat of the summer?

I think the air conditioner is the main reason why baths feel so nice in summer. Hmmm. Would it be a problem if I ask Sylphy to cool me down as soon as she gets out of the bath? I'll have to think about this and make a decision.
