175-Small Talk (3)





"...... Hmm?

 Morning.
 Richt wakes up with a cold feeling on his forehead.
 All he remembers is that he ate Faith's special dumplings and fainted.

 Other than that, I have no memory at all.

"Oh, good morning. Mr. Richt. I'm sorry I woke you up. ......

"Rosé?

 What Richt saw was Rosé carefully changing the ice.
 It seems that she was careful not to wake him up, and she looks apologetic when she sees him.

Why are you here ......?

I'm going to be in charge today. I'm going to be in charge today.

...... You don't have to do that much.

 In the event that Richt tries to stop him, Roze's work does not show any sign of stopping.
 On the contrary, she seemed to be moving at a brisk pace.

 I noticed that breakfast had already been prepared.

Please take it easy at least at a time like this. You've always taken care of me, so no one will complain if you take some time off.

No, but it's more work for Roze.

No, no, no! No, no, no! This is not part of my job! In fact, it's almost like I'm taking a day off too!

I don't really understand your logic, but ......

 I'm not sure about the logic behind it, but it's a good idea.

 Gentle taste.
 I'm not sure what to make of it.

What do you think, ......, Mr. Richt?

It's delicious. I feel like I could eat a lot more than that.

"......? I don't know what you're comparing it to, but I'm glad you liked it!

 I don't know what you're comparing it to, but I'm glad you're happy with it!" Hearing Richt's impression, Rose smiled.
 This breakfast is the same one that her mother made for her when she caught a cold as a child.

 She had prepared it in a very short time, relying only on her memory, but apparently Richt was satisfied with it.

I wish I could have nursed him until he was healed, but the Demon Lord wouldn't let me do that. I'm sorry.

"Don't apologize Rose. I'll do my best to heal you as soon as possible.

Yes! Please do your best!

 And - " he added.

"The Demon Lord seems to be bored without you, so I'd really appreciate it.

 Richt nodded his head.

 Is it true what Rose is saying?
 Or is he lying to cheer up Richt, to make him happy?

 We don't know which it is, so we'll need to heal him quickly to find out.

 Thank you," he was supposed to reply.
