Chapter 96 – What on earth do you mean…
Standing in front of a fire while holding tongs at a party where food and drinks are enjoyed noisily means simply grilling meat. It can be said that it contains quite a few meanings beyond the action itself.
An unspoken sacrifice that says, ‘I don’t mind working here while being a bit alienated, so you guys should enjoy yourselves first.’
A kind of medal and symbol that reflects the dignity and leisure of an elder.
The best example would be that even if Rin or Cecilia stepped forward to grill meat right now, no one would sit still and watch.
The grill at a party like this is literally like a sanctuary where all the attention and cheers are concentrated.
Not only meat and grilled vegetables, but also crispy burnt cheese and the occasional spectacular fire show created by frying meat oil are like the main characters of a party. The reality of parties is that even if there are many foods worth picking up, it ultimately comes down to meat.
Everyone here knows that handling such a grill is not defined as simple ‘labor’, and that if you burn meat or mishandle the flame, you will receive corresponding criticism. Is known,
In other words, it’s like saying that these tongs are a symbol that I have a certain level of authority and position within this group.
But this is nothing more than a justification.
What a cause,
What on earth does that mean?
“Now, everyone, think rationally~♪ Physiologically, age is only relative. This is the truth that history already tells us. In fact, it would be a meaningless debate for me to mention again a story that was already decided at a discussion meeting held by representatives of all races in the empire 500 years ago. I’m not saying this because I’m an elf, but if we take the elves as an example, the average lifespan of elves is about 800 years. As a rule of thumb, it takes about ten times the growth rate of a human being. In that sense, an elf’s age can be replaced with a human age by about ten times. In other words, in order to convert my age into human terms, I have to divide it by ten to see it as equal!”
“… As expected, you are Professor Aegis. Yes? Phew, the Vanir gods are not much different…. In the Empire, most of the actual vested interests are human, so many people often miss this aspect. They really lack racial awareness. “We need to understand that age and the passage of time can be relative to each species.”
“hehehe, Professor Freya is right~♪ Long-lived species also grow slowly. Right now, when I had my first period, I was in my 120s…… “
“… Wow! Professor Aegis… ! “Suddenly that sound!”
“…… ? Ah… ….. Oh my, I’m sorry. I made a mistake~ ……… Aha… hahahahaha…. ♪ Are you already drunk~♪”
If Freya hadn’t stopped him in a hurry, I don’t know what would have happened. Professor Aegis belatedly came to his senses and hastily covered his mouth.
It seemed like she had already lost her composure. When the topic of her age was mentioned, Professor Aegis visibly gibbered, and her eyes softened slightly. I guess it’s not because of her mood that she’s cornered somewhere.
Then Undine, who was quietly building a tower of meat and putting it in her mouth and happily eating it, joined in.
“Umu? Ummm… “Nothing!”
“Undine. “You have to swallow it all and then speak.”
“I’m called, I’m called! Fire! Water! No depression… ! Give me some water… Ah, thank you… Meh… Eup, gulp! Green onion! Huh… …. Phew, thank you. …… Hmm! Yes, what I was trying to say was not different, but my growth speed was not much different from that of humans. If you calculate age as a percentage as you just said, I am a little baby who is not yet a year old.”
“Oh my~♪ Miss Undine, so what do you want to say~”
“Ahem! So, I think I won this fight because I am young in absolute age and young in relative age!”
“… Blood relatives are a race with an extremely long adulthood.”
“Ahem! Ahem! Is this amazing? hehehehe, is this the quality of being faithful? Is it like this&? Wow&& I don’t know!”
“Hmm~♪ Is such a fraudulent race talking about age now? Oh my, that’s quite an interesting topic. It would be really nice if I could say that too. Oh my, Miss Undine, I’m suddenly jealous of you.”
Did his true feelings come out in the end?
If you carelessly intervene in that conversation, you will end up with a life so short that it cannot be compared to the lifespan of some races that are classified as short-lived species, let alone the lifespan of the Elfni clan or the Vanir god race. It’s not me who can’t guess such a simple fact. First-class when it comes to survival. I am confident that I have overcome any hardships and hardships in the snowy fields.

If you approach and say the wrong thing,
Die.
“How do you plan to resolve this, Professor?”
“If you don’t know, don’t ask me.”
“That’s such an irresponsible thing to say.”
Ignis put freshly cooked meat in his mouth, chewed it, and took a swig of beer. This bastard has no intention of helping, but always acts like this.
“Well, the professor was the one who caused it. “Just figure it out.”
I just said ‘elder’.
When she turned her head, she saw the princess next to her grill, pulling on her clothes.
“S… Master? “Shouldn’t we also take measures soon?”
“Huh? You mean Cecilia? The atmosphere was a bit scary earlier, but doesn’t it look okay now?”
“No way…. As someone who has practiced the art of living for a long time, I can recognize it. Cecilia: That expression is definitely… There must be something there. What should I do? Something might happen tonight! …… No way! Is it Kang O? Oh! Cecilia, blinded by jealousy, kills her teacher… ! Wow! Just like the erotic novel I read yesterday! A rough development! ……… Huh… Huh… What should I do? By my standards, this is NTR… If Cecilia is taken away like this… “It may be heartbreaking, but am I just a tearful loser at the door?!”
Anastasia continued to chew the meat uncomfortably with an expression of uneasiness on her face. I didn’t want to talk about what I was talking about, so I stuffed the meat into the princess’s mouth.
Yes. Don’t learn strange words from somewhere and eat a lot of meat.
Anyway, these days, subversive books are ruining children’s emotions, which is a big problem. Should I join some kind of parent organization and do something like condemn entertainment books?
This time, someone pokes my waist again from the other side.
“Come on, Ran. I have to give you one. Brother! Brother! Look here~ Ran said she would make a mini hamburger and give it to you!”
“…… I made it with my sister… Please eat….”
“Aha! I see! Thanks, I’ll enjoy it. Hey, it’s rewarding to grill meat.”
I heard Ran talk for so long. Lin and Ran are both my babies. Shaking. Soft and soft. Let’s pull the cheeks, Tong! The elastic, bouncy texture of the skin is so precious. I wish I didn’t have to grow up like this for the rest of my life, but I’m afraid that I’ll attract the attention of dangerous people like Fernandez.
“Oppa, what is your lifespan? I heard that they are not purely human…… ”
Lin asked me out of curiosity. It wasn’t a very loud voice, but before I could think of an answer, the surroundings became quiet and all eyes focused on one spot.
… Why are you looking at me all of a sudden? Are you that curious about my lifespan?
“…… Well. I’ve never thought about it. “Mixed race people like me aren’t that common.”
In particular, mixed blood between blood relatives and humans is something that has never been done before. Rin opens her eyes wide. I said playfully, stroking Rin and Ran’s heads.
“Well, you won’t die somehow, right?”
***
“Huh. “I was full and it was fun.”
Once the party was over and we finished cleaning up, it was already close to midnight. Although I was told to clean up after myself, it was almost like I was doing it all by myself.
With the atmosphere warmed up, we started playing a simple game, but the penalty was strong alcohol. Unlike me, who was desperately trying to play the game, other people may have wanted to drink, but there were also cases where they were deliberately punished.
And the result was this.
“Neheruna Kyoshu! If you say something so carelessly, I will hit you, so I will say that. If you say no, I will not hit you, so I will! Hi!”
“Professor Aegis, you seem to be very drunk…… “
“No, no, I’m not drunk…” Hi! Eundeng~”
Professor Aegis is always smiling brightly, but it is very rare for him to look disheveled like this. Before I knew it, she was leaning against my body and spoke in one breath.
“It’s okay~♪ It’s because I feel bad… I~ to Kyoshunim… They treat me so well… Hi!”
Even though I don’t want to react, I can’t help but roll my eyes at that incredible paaang. She looked like she was wearing a neat sweater, but she couldn’t hide her paaang and had a suggestive scent on her face. There is nothing wrong with her clothes. The problem is the scandalous American dramas.
Without realizing it, I saw the skin buried in my forearm and the valley that had formed between it.
Yes.
Just a little bit…
Just a little more……
Park!
“Evil!”
“Where are you looking? Take your eyes off. Hurry.”
Freya pointed out to me in her bitter voice, but she was also very drunk. Her eyes were strangely relaxed from earlier, and now her eyes are moist, as if she is about to cry.
“Professor Aegis. Isn’t it against the law to appeal in that way? You should also know that being too explicit is frowned upon… “
“Oh my~♪ Pureia Kyoshu~ Are you jealous? Are you jealous! Hi! I’m sorry! Because I’m just a big-breasted idiot, I’ll give you something like this… I don’t know~ Hmm~♪ … Nepi Luna Goshu! “Let me show you a magic trick!”
“You mean magic?”
“Yes~ like this… There was Kyoshu’s face… Like this, like this~ Ta-da~ There was a face~ between the breasts, but it wasn’t there~ Babaaam~ How is it, Neferna Kyoshu? Is it soft~♪ Is it amazing~♪”
“……… Ugh?!”
“Is it soft~♪? Is Mr. Aegis’s magic fun~?!”
“Yes….. Maman… “I want to keep seeing this magic.”
“Wait a minute! What are you two doing?! Everyone, get away now! “Stop doing obscene things!”
Freya is desperately trying to get away from Professor Aegis, who is sobbing that she loses her senses.
Just when I was feeling regretful, I saw the shadows of two children in the distance, so I immediately returned to my role as a wholesome and exemplary ‘teacher’ and escaped from them.
“Ah, Lina, Ran. “Have you been there?”
“Yes! “I brought Undine’s older sister to her dormitory safely!”
“Cool cool… Sleeping… Uh… yo. This….”
“I didn’t know he was so weak to alcohol that he suddenly fell asleep…. Sorry. Anyway, Ignis couldn’t be let into the girls’ dormitory. I can fit right up to Ran’s age… “
“It’s okay! We’ll help too! Can we just throw away this trash now, brother? “Ran, let’s go throw this away!”
Two siblings bravely heading somewhere.
hehehe, as expected, I raised him well.
If you tell me that you are going to get married like that, you will cry on the spot.
Then again, someone touched me and I turned around to see a fox with an unusually tickling snort coming closer to me.
Only today did I find out that when Cecilia gets drunk, her sense of distance decreases.
“I am a teacher….”
“Oh, Cecilia. “Is that all sorted out?”
“Yes, you worked hard until the end….”
“No. I really appreciate you. “Go and rest.”
“Yes… Are you planning to go back to the lab right away?”
“Ah, I’m thinking about going to sleep now.”
When she answered like that, Cecilia smiled like she had never seen before, and she said this as if she was bewitching the person. Are you drunk too? She wanted to ask, but for a moment she was mesmerized by those eyes and was left speechless. She ended up never hearing her last words.
“Okay, then I’ll see you soon. “Go first and I will wait for you, sir.”
