Chapter 73 Because She'S Kind
That was when I finished my fourth bottle of alcohol and opened the fifth one. Huh? Rosalie-san is coming back?
It was around 11pm, at the edge of my usual screen, and there was a knock on my door.
"Yes"
When the door opened gently, Rosalie-san was there with an apologetic look on her face. I think I was probably looking her as a useless big sister.
When I beckoned her, Rosalier-san came in, her eyes bloodshot. Ah, she has been drinking a lot.
"...Sorry"
"I'm sure you couldn't refuse, right?"
"Yes. I'm really sorry."
"Give me your hand."
"Yes"
I held Rosalie-san's hands as if I were giving her treatment. I guess she thought I would get angry. Her eyes are tightly closed.
"'Detoxy (detoxification)'"
This actually works not just for hangovers, but it sobers her up completely too.
"...Huh? "
"It might be a bit wasteful, but with this, you won't feel bad tomorrow, right?"
"I, I am truly sorry!"
She bowed deeply on the spot and ran back to her room. Well, I guess I can't help it. Rosalier-san is too caring.
* * *
Morning of the fourth day. I wonder how Rosalie came into my room before I woke up. This is not the Watterhills mansion, but Seteas-san's inn. How did she open the key?
But then, it smelled good and there was breakfast on the table, similar to what I'd get at Watterhills. There weren't many dishes, but there were some dishes I recognized.
"Good morning, Goshujin-sama."
"Ah, oh, good morning. Yeah, I'm going to wash my face a little."
"Yes, please go."
Yeah, I was surprised. There's no other way to put it, but the fact that everything was prepared right next to me while I was sleeping is just unbelievable. But, I guess that's Rosalier-san for you.
I washed my face, used the unfamiliar razor for my beard, and it stung a bit, so I cast a Healing Spell. Magic with a Healing Attribute is seriously convenient. I finally found toothpaste the other day. It's a bit pricey though. Someone told me about it, I never thought it would actually exist. So, I brushed my teeth and came back to the room.
"What's this all about?"
"Yes. I went to the first floor, borrowed the kitchen and ingredients from Milenoa-san, and in return, I promised to teach her how to cook tonight..."
Yeah, I give up. I decided to sit down obediently.
"Hey, remember what happened yesterday? I'm not worried about it. Well then, Itadakimasu."
"Yeah. I'm sorry."
Hmm, it's been a while since I had such rich flavor. It's delicious. I really like the taste of Rosalier-san. She mentioned teaching Milenoa-san about it at night, so maybe I'll be able to have this rich flavor even at this inn?
"Yeah, I really like this taste. It's delicious."
"T-thank you."
"Oh, what about Rosalier-san's?"
"I was just doing a taste test, casually with Milenoa-san."
"I see, I get it."
So she was already casually telling her about the seasoning for breakfast. I'm sure she were surprised. But Rosalier-san can create this taste well with the seasonings here. Is that what cooking is all about?
"...Phew, thanks for the meal."
"Yes, it was a humble meal."
Anyway, it's super luxurious to have tea served silently after a meal. It seems the plates were borrowed and quickly returned downstairs.
When I returned to the room, she prepared tea for herself this time and sat opposite me. She stood until I finished eating. I'm not some important person... Ah, never mind. Let's not think about it. Yeah, let's do that.
"Hey, you know..."
"Yes?"
"Rosalier-san, you're kind, so I always thought you're the type to get involved in various things from the beginning."
"I don't want to be told by Goshujin-sama."
"Huh?"
"...Saint-sama."
"Oh, sorry about that."
"Understood, that's fine."
Oh, right. I shouldn't criticize others either.
"By the way..."
"Yes?"
"Is it possible to infiltrate the royal castle?"
"Yes, it's somewhat possible at night."
"Wow."
"During the day, it's quite difficult, I believe."
"Yeah, I guess so."
"You're returning the day after tomorrow, right?"
"Yeah, that's the plan."
"In that case, it's fine to do it once. I want to look down on this country from the sky and make a map."
"Oh, in that case... um..."
I peeked into my inventory. Yep, found it. This didn't disappear. It was for gaming, but I bought a UMPC, so it's just a regular phone now.
I put it in my palm. Yep, looks like it's turning on. Battery's still at 100%.
"What's this?"
"Oh, this? In this world, it should be a Magic Tool. It's a normal tool for me, sent over from the other world."
Of course, no signal. There's no way I have Wi-Fi, so I turned it off. I also turned off Bluetooth to reduce battery drain.
"This, you see..."
I opened the camera app, tapped the shutter button. Then there was a weak sound, and the screen froze for a moment. I check the recent images for the one just taken.
"You can leave a picture like this."
The one I took a picture of was my bed. It'll take a picture, anyway. Storage is also a waste of 512GB. Really, it's a useless ultra high-end product.
"...this is?"
"Sorry about that."
I turned off the flash, which was set to auto, and took a picture of Rosalier-san this time. Judging from her history, she's a beauty.
"How about this?"
"Ah, that's me... Why is this? Magic Tool?"
Oh, her dialogue back to normal.
"Yeah. It was a common tool in the world I was in, but here it's a Magic Tool. But can anyone recreate it? It won't work for a day, so I'll use it to take pictures of the country from above. I think you should come back here and copy it."
For now, I store it in my inventory. I'm scared of running out of battery. However, does time really flow slowly or does it stop? Looking at the places where there is no spontaneous discharge, I wonder which one it is. That was helpful.
"Hey, it's a little early, but should I go now while I can?"
"Yes?"
"Anyway, I really want to change clothes."
"Oh, um, I'm sorry."
Rosalier-san hurriedly left the room. I quickly finished changing clothes.
"Rosalier-san"
"Yes?"
"I'm ready, shall we go?"
"Yes."
We decided to leave the room and head to the stable where Centrena is.

- Additionally, we have a worth-to-read project about someone who has returned from an isekai. The main character is a hero who has defeated the Demon Lord. However, for some reason, the human-demon war has resumed and will take place in the MC's original world. The MC, unaware of this, meets a Saint from that world and she asks him to join the war. But what does the MC say? He refuses. Is it because his pas love was rejected by the princess when they adventured together in the past, or is he simply fed up? Discover the answers by clicking here.
We hope you enjoy reading these works!
