[BONUS]

I used to be woken up by the sound of somebody knocking on the door. Was it morning already? Nicely, clearly.

Though it was nonetheless a bit dim outdoors, there have been a number of rays of sunshine leaking by way of the rising solar that hid behind the scarlet clouds.

“What’s it?” I requested groggily as I rubbed my eyes.

“Good morning, my Lord.” A well-recognized voice greeted me from behind the door.

“Morning, Florin. What’s up?”

“What would you want for breakfast right this moment?”

Breakfast? I used to be nonetheless processing what she mentioned as I stretched my muscle tissues.

“Something you make is sweet.” I yawned and pushed myself up from mattress.

Once I opened the door, I noticed Florin standing by the door, smiling with darkish drained eyes.

“Are you okay?” I requested, seeing that she appeared like she hadn’t slept a wink.

Florin blinked and patted her cheeks. “Teeheehee. That is nothing, my Lord. There was a rat final evening, and Florin needed to stand guard in order that it would not eat our meals.”

My head tilted to the aspect. “Actually? You must catch some relaxation after you end your chores, then.”

“Thanks, My Lord. By the way in which, what will we serve our undesirable friends??” she requested.

U-unwanted . . . ?

I assumed for a second. There was no rice and bread, so there was no different selection however to eat the same old. “We’ll have mashed potatoes and smoke some fish.”

We chatted as we walked downstairs and have been stunned to search out Megu already awake, carrying her little one in her arms.

“Good morning,” she beamed, and her candy, seductive smile may brighten even the gloomiest temper.

“M-morning,” I greeted whereas Florin solely checked out Megu with suspicion.

“In the event you do not thoughts, I might help with cooking and cleansing round right here,” she mentioned. “I am good with family chores.”

“Hmm . . . Is your cooking proficiency good? Even in case you’re a chef again on earth, right here, in case your cooking degree is low, you may solely produce charcoal shit,” mentioned Florin.

“Florin . . . ,” I warned her.

However Megu solely giggled and mentioned, “My cooking degree went up after cooking for the group for a month, so you do not have to fret about that.”

Florin’s smile remained on her lips, however I heard her groan on the aspect.

“Uhm . . . I feel it is wonderful,” I mentioned to the 2. “Megu may aid you with the cooking to get some work off your fingers. You will get some further relaxation, too.”

Florin stared into my eyes earlier than she appeared to the aspect with out saying something.

That was bizarre. I assumed that she can be completely happy to get some relaxation, however as a substitute, she gave the impression to be mad about one thing.

“Then it is settled.” Megu beamed and put her little one down, and informed her, “Mommy can be cooking breakfast, okay? Simply mess around right here and do not break issues.”

Angelica nodded earlier than she turned left and proper, inspecting what she’d terrorized first.

Our eyes briefly met, and she or he smiled her brightest. I did not know why, however I felt all my issues had disappeared. There was one thing about her smile that made me wish to cuddle and play along with her all day.

<Youngsters are evil creatures. They may manipulate any grownup with only a smile.>

Not every part is corrupted such as you.

“Maintain it!”

We have been stunned by the sudden voice from behind and located that Sheryl and Emi have been already up.

“Cease proper there, Megu,” Sheryl mentioned and went as much as her.

“Do not assume you can slip one on us.”

Megu was confused. “What are you speaking about, expensive?”

“Do not assume that we do not know what you are making an attempt to do.” Emi folded her arms. “A cook dinner? Actually? You simply do not wish to do the work that includes going out. If that is the case, I’ll assist with cooking, too.”

One thing informed me that today was going to be troublesome.

<Good factor Host invited them in right here, huh?>

Shut up!

“However . . . Have not I all the time been the cook dinner within the group?” Megu mentioned, and I may see that she was genuinely confused as to what Sheryl and Emi have been speaking about.

“Ain’t no manner I am doing work that includes going outdoors,” mentioned Sheryl earlier than she confronted me with a candy smile. “I can clear the home.”

Emi frowned. “Have you ever ever held a brush your whole life?”

“No, however I had held somebody’s head earlier than and used her face to mop the ground. How about I take advantage of yours?” Sheryl retorted.

Yep, this is able to undoubtedly be a busy day.

“Uhm . . . ,” I butted in on the combat between the 2 and instructed, “how about this . . . Megu will cook dinner, Emi will wipe off the mud from the furnishings, whereas Sheryl will swipe the ground. And Florin . . . you’ll are likely to the farm outdoors like all the time.”

The ladies appeared okay with my suggestion, seeing that they not argued.

Nonetheless, Florin wasn’t completely happy within the least, and I may really feel discontent oozing from her.

Florin wasn’t in the slightest degree bothered with the Blood Rain, so I assumed that she can be alright with it. I suppose I used to be incorrect.

“Maintain it!”

What now?!

The voice we heard subsequent was Edgar’s.

The blokes have been already up as effectively, they usually marched to our location.

“Simply since you’re women, you bought off simple? What occurred to equal rights? When it is to your benefit, you converse of gender equality, but when it is in any other case, you all the time use your gender as an excuse.”

Emi frowned. “I do not wish to hear that from somebody who’s not performing like a person and is all the time the primary to run away in a combat.”

A vein popped on Edgar’s neck. “Huh?!”

“We’re wonderful going out, proper Ford?” Brago mentioned.

Ford appeared to the aspect. “Y-yeah . . .”

His face informed me in any other case, although.

“Nicely, I am not!” Edgar shouted.

“And what makes you assume that you’ve got a selection right here?” Florin chimed in, and everybody went silent. “You need to notice that no matter my Lord tells you, it’s important to obey. Or we’ll kick you out or you possibly can simply go away in case you do not wish to work. The door is all the time open.”
