Chapter 418 – Mine? (9)
“Hey.”
The third day of mine construction.
The monsters went down to the village for lunch, and while they were carrying the soil and stones they dug up, Kritiana spoke to me.
By the way, to call you ‘hey’.
I can’t stand this.
“Like.”
“… Do you really want to go back?”
“Mifasol.”
I feel great joy.
It felt as if thrilling electrical impulses traveled down my spine and stimulated the neurons in my brain.
“Are you crazy? Is it because it’s hot?”
“Hey… Nighttime.”
“… Snack.”
“Eat power. The ability to identify things.”
“History.”
“Death force.”
“Weightlifting.”
“Energy.”
I have memory skills.
I never give up on the ending.
“… Oh no!”
Did he realize that he had fallen into an infinite hell of ‘power’?
Kritiana exclaimed, slightly annoyed.
“Hehe, why did you call me?”
If you enjoyed this much, you should be moderately satisfied.
I asked why she called me.
“When will this end?”
“Um, I’ll come after asking, so wait a minute.”
I left Kritiana behind and approached the white golem standing at the very bottom of the hole dug to build the mine.
“Golem, the current hole we dug is this deep.”
I took out a notebook and a ballpoint pen from my dimensional pocket and drew a circle in an inverted triangle.
“If the vertex located at the bottom is the target point, how far have we come down now? About here?”
I asked while placing the pen in the middle of the inverted triangle.
Bang.
The golem responded by hitting the floor with both arms.
I meant lower.
“So this much?”
About 60% point.
That’s how I figured out the golem and the current depth, and as a result, it turned out that it was about 75% digging.
“Well, good job.”
After talking to the golem, I went back to Critiana.
“What?”
“Now 75%. If you go down until today and start digging tomorrow, the day after tomorrow? It will be over by sometime.”
“Ugh… , There is still a lot left.”
Kritiana said, fanning her face with her hand fan, as if the scorching sun pouring down from the sky was hot.
“Is it hot?”
I made her disc with Magi and moved it over Kritiana’s head.
A shade was created to shelter from the sun.
“Yeah, aren’t you going to become steamed dumplings like this?”
Steamed dumplings
There were two steamed dumplings that were too big for her breasts.
“Don’t worry. Fried dumplings are my preference, but I like steamed dumplings, so I’ll enjoy them.”
Of course, that doesn’t mean eating breasts.
“Put… , What is he saying now.”
I guess my joke was fortunately pretty funny. Kritiana replied with a smile.
In fact, I might not be a pretty humorous guy.
“Thank you for helping. A lot of trouble.”
“Yeah, it’s terribly difficult. I guess I just came along to help.”
“If you are having a hard time, you can stop helping. You’ve already helped enough.”
Kritiana is not even a lover, but an outright stranger.
It is an undeniable fact that she agreed to accompany her on the condition that she would help with the work, but Kritiana had already helped her to the point of overflowing as she hadn’t had enough for three days.
“No thanks. I said I’d help, but I’ll take responsibility until the end. And… , I have to repay you for saving me.”
Critiana speaks softly.
“Heh, thank you. I’ll buy some rice next time. With something delicious.”
“… Anything delicious?”
“Yeah, I’ll feed you whatever you want to eat.”
“…”
Kritiana’s gaze moved slowly.
From my face and stopped for a moment.
“Where are you looking?”
“What, what?”
When I asked, she quickly looked away and answered.
I must have looked at the groin.
She wonders if the thing she wants to eat is what Riel likes.
“You just looked down.”
“Oh, isn’t it!?”
“Um, well, let’s do something like that.”
“I haven’t seen anything like that!”
I think it’s better if you don’t.
The reaction was fun, so I wanted to do more.
“The map just looked at my chest.”
Little voice.
But it was loud enough to hear what he was saying.
I saw it.
When I was talking about dumplings, my gaze went down before I knew it.
As usual… I did see it sometimes.
The part that sticks out over her clothes draws attention.
“Hmmmm, I have to work hard.”
Eventually she decided to back off.
“… , Buy me some meat next time.”
“Okay.”
“Did you get along well?”
The moment the conversation was about to end.
Riel returned via teleport.
“How are you? We’re not kids.”
Critiana’s answer.
Kid is right
If the age difference is 180 years.
“Have you been well?”
“Okay, I decided to pick him up in an hour when the meal was over.”
“You worked hard. Thanks for your help.”
“It’s a family business, so of course I have to help.”
It’s a family business.
Having said that, I like it more like a family.
“Let’s go eat some food now.”
Riel looked at me with her enchanting eye smile and said.
Apparently Riel is trying to eat me for lunch today.
“Yes, then shall we simply boil some ramen?”
The lunch break for pregnant women is 1 hour.
The sooner you do it, the more free time you will have.
“Um, that would be nice.”
“What about Kritiana?”
“I don’t mind either, as long as it’s not too spicy.”
Kritiana couldn’t eat spicy food.
What kind of reaction would you show if you sliced Cheongyang peppers and put them in Shin Ramyun and boil it?
I was curious… You shouldn’t play with your food.
“Then wait a minute.”
I used my telekinetic powers to gather the fallen twigs and leaves around me and placed a stone of a similar size in a circle around it.
After using the fire skill to light the fire, he took out a pot and ramen from the dimensional pocket.
“Sister, give me some water.”
“Okay.”
Riel made her magic circle and she started to fill her pot with water flowing from it.
“Got it now.”
After she stopped the water, she put the pot on the fire and cooked the ramen.
“Let’s eat now.”
A pungent odor wafted in, and the meal began.
And by the end of the meal.
“Huh?”
“Why?”
“Something is flying… , Rye is coming.”
I didn’t know when and where monsters would appear, so I sensed something from the search skill I had always activated.
A small golden hatchling flying at high speed.
It was rai
No one is picking up, so I guess I’ll come alone.
“Of course now…”
Riel used to love Rai, but she didn’t seem to be very happy about it now.
After finishing the ramen, it must have been the turn to eat the main dish.
Either that or not.
Rai flew towards us at high speed.
And as soon as she landed, she transformed into a human form.
“Ray, are you here?”
“Brother! Hi!”
Lai, who vigorously greeted me today.
“Yeah, what did you come for?”
“By Bored!”
“I see.”
I wondered if something had happened because he came so suddenly, but I guess it wasn’t.
“Is the potato harvest over?”
“Huh! It’s over this morning, so there’s nothing to do!”
“It’s over quickly.”
The harvest ended much earlier than expected, probably thanks to the dragon’s power.
“So I will work here!”
“Oh, that’s fine.”
With Rai, the time would be much shorter.
“Welcome. Did you eat lunch?”
“No, I left as soon as I finished in the morning. I’m really hungry… Smells delicious! Is it ramen?”
“Yeah, I was just eating ramen. But I ate them all.”
“Oh… ! No, nonsense!”
Rai speaks in astonishment as if he cannot believe it.
Anyone who sees it will know that the world is lost.
“I have more ramen. Shall I boil it for you?”
“Really?! Really?”
“Yes, of course.”
I cooked ramen for Rai.
And she said I cook much better than Riel and Kritiana did, she admired.
It’s been years since I’ve been eating jjambab.
∴
“Haaa… , I’m full.”
Rai said, patting the slightly protruding belly with both hands on her cute dress.
“But did you tell War Wolf?”
“Huh! Her grandfather told her to take care and have a good trip.”
“Our rai is nice. Good job.”
“Lol!”
Rai smiled confidently, placing her hands on his sides and spreading her chest wide.
Will Lai come later because she is a teenager?
I wish I could be cute like this for the rest of my life.
“But do you know what’s going on?”
“Huh! Her grandfather said she was digging. I am very good at digging! Are you referring to the big hole we saw in the sky earlier?”
“That’s right. But now it’s break time. We will start a little later, would you like to wait?”
“Then oppa, read me a fairy tale.”
“Even a children’s book?”
I told her to wait for a while and then I told her to go with Riel.
“I want to hear you read it with my brother’s voice! You have a nice voice.”
You bastard, you already realized how to live a social life.
It was a mixture of innocence and cuteness unique to children, so I couldn’t resist it.
Still, as much as I made an unspoken promise with Riel, I can see a bit of notice.
“Rai asks you to read it that far, won’t you read it?”
Did you notice that I was hesitating?
Riel asked me.
“Okay. I’ll read it to you, so do you have anything with you?”
“Huh! This.”
Today’s children’s book was Hen X and That X Tell.
I made Rai sit on my lap as he wished and read me a book, and when he had read about four books, the work started again.
“Brother.”
“Huh?”
As I was digging down the hole, Rai called me.
“Something down here… I am calling.”
“I’m calling… ? What?”
“It’s like me… I don’t know what it is.”
