cleanup.
It’s as simple as using the magic that turns dust into nothingness.
But, because I can’t always take care of the hero’s party.
This time I decided to teach the kids how to clean.
“Everyone, bring brooms, dustpans and dusters from the warehouse. Everyone will share their duties and clean up.”
“Yeah~”
Hodadada-
The children made their way to the warehouse with the sound of cheerful footsteps.
“… It’s annoying. Magic is enough. It’s inefficient.”
Except for Saten, who hates inefficient cleaning.
Still, Saten could not refuse the order, so he slowly headed towards the warehouse.
Although the Hero Party sometimes behaved strangely, they basically listened to me well.
After such a brief order, they stood still and waited for the hero’s party, and they appeared with a bunch of cleaning tools in their arms.
“Ahhhh!! Whoa, that’s heavy! Help!!”
“Be strong, Luna. You will be a good porter.”
“Oh, don’t be funny! I am a hero!!”
Have you now admitted that you are a warrior?
Next to Saten, who uttered strange words, whether cheering or gaslighting, Luna was sweating profusely and holding a cleaning tool.
It’s because he’s a trained body.
The power was close to business.
“I, I am a hero! Even if it’s heavy, it won’t fall over! How are you, Mister? I’m great! Come on, praise me!”
“… Yes, Luna, your physical abilities are commendable.”
“Of course it is! A hundred times more than the uncle who doesn’t teach swordsmanship! It’s a thousand times better!”
Is it because of yesterday’s training?
Luna shook her arms and moved the cleaning tools eagerly.
However, it is said that if the head is stupid, the body suffers.
moon moon-
“to… ? Can, cart… ?”
“Ah, uncle… ! I brought it first… !”
Hare found a wagon in the warehouse and brought a bunch of cleaning tools in it.
For some reason, there was Estiya in it, but…
It was such a strange sight to ask why, so I didn’t have to say it.
As if to compliment her, Hare came up to me and looked up at me.
“Look around and… ! Think of the best way… ! I do what my uncle says… ! I was able to find a cart in the warehouse… ! I, how did I do, Mister… ?”
“… ”
I did well.
Because I found the tools in the warehouse and moved the cleaning tools quickly.
But it seems that the purpose is to get my compliments…
A good job is a good thing, so I can’t help but praise it.
I stroked Hare’s head, asking for praise.
“Yeah, you put what you learned to good use, you did very well, Hare.”
“Hehehe… Oh, thank you, man… ”
Ha-reh was shy and seemed to enjoy the compliments.
I don’t know for sure if I’ve stopped the feelings I talked about before, but I didn’t show it clearly, so I decided to leave it alone for now.
Then, a blushing Luna appeared next to Hare, who had been praised, and said.
“ha… mister… ! Me too, I brought a lot of cleaning tools… !!”
Crackle-
Luna puts down the many cleaning tools she had in her arms.
She said to me, looking forward to something.
“Hey, I did well too! Ta, I don’t really want compliments! It is just that!”
“… You don’t want compliments?”
“no! That’s not it! That’s right!”
I’m not honest, but I’m too honest.
Luna’s tone of speech was clearly intentional.
Still, I worked hard, so I stopped joking around and stroked Luna’s hair.
“Yeah, you did well too. Luna. The method was savage, but the result was not bad.”
“Well, well, this is the basics!”
“… ”
Luna exclaimed that it was normal.
Hare looked at Luna for a moment with such a confident appearance, but it didn’t lead to any action.
Hare had learned a lot so far, so he wouldn’t have had bad thoughts.
‘Now it’s time to clean up, before that… ‘
Before starting cleaning, I first took out the sleeping Estiya from the cart.
“Uh, uh… ”
Estiya, who seems less awake from medicine, stands upright.
I said looking at the Hero party.
“Then, now that we have the cleaning tools, let’s start the house cleaning. Luna for the broom, Hare for cleaning the windows, Saten for the dustpan, Estiya, you… Go around and help the kids.”
Cleaning tools tailored to children’s situations.
Through this, you can increase your strengths and compensate for your weaknesses.
Cleaning up was also a training method I learned from Aina.
‘June.’
‘Oh, Master.’
‘It’s mindset training. Clean the house.’
‘… alone? this spacious house?’
‘Feed me, put me to sleep, teach me magic. Do I have to pay for the meal?’
‘… I cook the food, you get drunk and interrupt me, I barely sleep, and I force myself to learn magic?’
‘If the teacher wants to do it, do it-!! Don’t talk back-!!”
From my own experience with cleaning.
In conclusion, it wasn’t bad.
I kept talking to you from the side so that there was no time to get bored with cleaning.
At the time, it wasn’t great, but after seeing it, it remains distinctly in my memory and changes to the name of memory.
I think it is a necessary process for the party of heroes who will have a rough journey ahead.
“Well then, let’s all go to our seats and do the cleaning. We work as a team of two, and if each of us works hard in our work, we will give you a special ‘reward’. Did you understand?”
“Sah, Sang! holy water! I’m sure the holy water will be the prize!”
“Eh, if holy water is the prize, I don’t need it… ”
“… If you want holy water, Estelle, I’ll give it to you. However, instead of giving everyone holy water, if each one wants something, we will give it to them.”
Of course before that…
“I should bring some cleaning tools.”
Is it because I am full of enthusiasm?
The cleaning tools that the children brought hard were too many for 5 people to use.
***
The children performed diligently in their assigned tasks.
“You have to sweep all the trash! But I’ve done it a lot at home, so I’ll do it the best!”
Luna sweeps the floor with a broom.
I could see her will to sweep away every single speck of dust.
However, Saten, who was in charge of the broom’s partner dustpan, was reluctant.
“Saten! Come and take the trash!”
“I am not interested.”
“The dustpan needs to get the garbage! Come right now!”
“I haven’t tried it, and I don’t want to. That’s the common people’s job, not mine.”
“Poetry, status discriminator!! It’s complete status discrimination!”
Saten’s emotionless behavior is all driven by curiosity.
If you’re not interested, you don’t act, and you don’t feel the need.
Maybe that’s why, even though Luna worked hard to collect the trash, Saten didn’t move a single step.
Luna shouted straight out at Saten’s appearance.
“Come here now! We have to clean up!”
“I do not like it. Why do I have to do that?”
“That, that… ! That’s what Daddy did!”
flinch-
Saten was tempted by the word uncle and asked Luna.
“Hmm, if it’s what the uncle asked me to do, should I do anything?”
“It’s not… Still, if you can… Maybe I should… ?”
“Well then, Luna. Will you die if you die?”
“to… ?”
“It’s something you can do. It’s possible to kill yourself. Is that impossible? Whether you use a rope or a sword. It would be possible.”
“to… ?”
Isn’t it impossible… ?
Two people with very different standards.
The differences of opinion due to differences in growth environment did not intend to be easily reduced.
Saten confirmed Luna’s reaction, and indifferently turned to the book.
“Luna, just like you can’t take your own life, there are things that are impossible for me too. Do you know?”
“… You mean holding the dustpan is impossible for you?”
“yes that’s right. I can’t.”
High-ranking nobles should not do what commoners do.
You must always keep your head high and maintain your dignity.
If you don’t want to be ‘punished’, you must never lose your dignity.
“I want to win your ‘prize’, but I have to give up this time.”
“If you don’t do it, my prize will be lost too! Saten! Let’s clean up quickly!”
“… ”
Saten moved her gaze to the book without saying anything.
Luna couldn’t help but be frustrated.
“I want to win a prize… ! The prize given by the uncle is rice, but it’s not good… ! I want to receive an award… !!”
how…
How to convince Saten… !?
Luna and Saten have to clean together as a group of two.
Luna, who was with the wrong crew member, was on the verge of breaking her head.
***
“… Luna and Saten don’t seem to have made any progress yet.”
After checking for a while.
Luna was doing a lot of cleaning, but Saten didn’t seem particularly motivated.
Perhaps Saten’s thoughts about his identity are hindering the cleaning process.
“Persuasion is also part of the process. If you are a hero in the hero party, you must be able to persuade the party members.”
If it really doesn’t work, then I’ll have to step in.
It is still in the observing stage.
With that thought in mind, I entered Luna’s room.
It was to check the condition of the children’s room.
kiik-
“It’s still being used cleanly.”
There is dust, but there is no house without dust.
There seemed to be no particular problematic space in Luna’s room.
“A letter to my family is on my desk… And the picture… ?”
What picture did you draw?
A picture that piques my curiosity.
Luna’s artistic talent seemed to be a bummer, but no matter how poorly drawn, it had human characteristics, so I could recognize it at a glance.
“If you were to draw me, I wouldn’t be this ugly.”
than that.
It’s like being hit with a wooden sword in the drawing of my face.
Why do such marks remain?
I remember the sound of Luna’s training that resounded loudly last night.
I put a picture of my face in my pocket.
“You’re so bold to draw and hit me in the face, Luna.”
this is confiscated
Luna’s room had no problems except for a picture of my face.
Without showing a sign, I cautiously exited the room.
Next up is the next room.
It was Hare’s room.
kiik-
“The inside is cleaner than I thought.”
Is it still a habit to live a clean life?
The first time I saw Hare’s house was like a garbage dump, so I was worried for a moment…
Fortunately, Hare seemed to be trying to stay clean.
While exploring the inside, I checked that there was nothing wrong with Hare’s room.
There wasn’t anything unusual about it unless you looked closely.
In an instant, something that catches my attention at once.
was lying on the bed
It was something that shouldn’t be here.
“… Why is this here? One was missing, but… Why is this… ?”
I tried to keep it a secret that I entered the children’s room.
I didn’t even want to reveal that I was there.
However, the moment I saw my things on the bed.
“Why the hell did you steal my underwear, Hare?”
Should I ask the person concerned about this?
I had no choice but to worry.
Bro his underwear….
A theif steal bro, what did you expect?
