Someone who benefits?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Yes, sir. If I had to guess, it all started with the garbage, didn't it?　I was curious as to why you dumped your trash somewhere other than where you dumped it."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't see how they can get money by dumping trash elsewhere.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If it was to hide the fact that the dump site was overflowing with trash, the tamer might be involved, but I don't think there's any need to hide it in the first place.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

There is more than one tamer to take care of the garbage.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If all tamers in this village were involved, there would be no rumors that the amount of garbage is not right.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

If that's the case, I don't understand why there is a need to hide it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Indeed. If it started with the garbage problem, I don't see why.'

Mr. Gullit tilts his head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ginal is thinking about it too, but he can't come up with a reason.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hey, aren't you hungry?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Fiesche looked around at us, clutching his stomach.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Speaking of which, I might be hungry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Maybe it's time for lunch?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is it almost noon?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy, why don't we go back to the plaza?　You didn't sleep well, did you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Dad pats me on the head with concern.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was thinking about it so much that I forgot about it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I had been thinking so much about it that I had forgotten.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm fine now.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Really?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

This might keep worrying me if I don't go home and sleep.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You didn't get enough sleep?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Yes. But I'm fine, so don't make that face.'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Zinal looked apologetic, so I laughed and shook my head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy is a very hardworking woman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy tries too hard, doesn't she?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Not really.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She does. That's why I can't take my eyes off her."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Dad speaks with a slightly troubled expression.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't think so.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I shake my head silently, but dad sighs.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Speaking of which, isn't Ivy going to sign up with the Adventurer's Guild?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Well...'

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think these people would be fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sola said it would be fine too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I haven't registered either because I have some problems with my skills. I registered with my father in the commercial guild.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy too?　That's another thing.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Hey, I'm hungry!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Shut up, Feiche!　You've got to have a little patience!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's a long story, Zinal. I'm hungry, let's go buy some food!　The food stalls get crowded at lunchtime.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Mr. Zinal let out a sigh and got up from his chair.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Sorry," he said. You must be really hungry since it was so early in the morning.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, we're going back to the square.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm going back to the plaza. I'm going to do some research based on what Ivy told me. I've been looking into it from other directions, but I haven't had much success.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I left the room of "Michell's" inn with Mr. Zinal and the others.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The dining room of the inn was a little noisy, perhaps because it was lunchtime.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I left the inn while looking at it from the side.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you for today. I had a good time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, it was my pleasure.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll see you in the square in a couple of days.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I understand."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I stared at my father and Mr. Zinal, I felt a bit heavy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What was it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Could it be that I am tired?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Well, if you don't get enough sleep and talk about so many things, you must be tired.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, did Mr. Fiesche notice?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What do you want for lunch?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look ahead at the sound of my father's voice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Before I knew it, Mr. Zinal and the others were on their way to the food stall.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I knew they were tired.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You look a little pale. Shall we go back to the plaza and rest?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll do that. I think we need to take a break. I'll cook something for lunch with the leftover rice.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Of course. I'll help you, but don't strain yourself.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll be fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy's okay sometimes is a little unreliable.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She doesn't have to be.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But I'll make an easy meal for lunch.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I've got a little pain in my head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

A bowl of rice is easy, isn't it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Come to think of it, I remembered a dish called yakimeshi.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It seems that any ingredients can be used, and as far as I remember, it's easy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, let's try yakimeshi today.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Walking along the main street, I saw many lively food stalls.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

They all seemed to be thriving.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's the same as usual, even though we can't go out to the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We can't go to the forest, so we can't see Sharmi.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, but what's going on this year? I wonder what happened to him this year. I couldn't even see him from the gate.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is that so?　They are a blessing to the people of this village. It's a pity.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Shami?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think I heard that somewhere.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm pretty sure I heard it when I was researching gossip.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I believe they were talking about a "cute and friendly animal."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's healing. I'd like to see it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Do you want me to get you something?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, not today. Let's go home.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Okay."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I returned to the plaza, I found that many adventurers were making a bit of noise as usual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

We couldn't go out into the forest, so we had to stay in the plaza.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess it can't be helped.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm home. Sorry I'm late.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I went into the tent and apologized to Sola and the others.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was early in the morning when they left, so everyone had to stay at home.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The potion I had prepared for Sola and the others was gone, so it looks like they had finished their meal.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy said, "Yes, Ivy. Ivy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Dad brought the red potion that Flem had made.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I put a little in a small glass and drank it, and the lethargy in my head disappeared.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm not sick, but it seems to help.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy asked, "Are you all right?　You had a little pain in your head, didn't you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He knew.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm glad you figured it out. But I'm fine now."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm feeling a little lighter, thanks to the potion.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'll cook lunch.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have a dish I want to make. I'll cook it with you.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

You're stubborn.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'I was just thinking about it, and I kind of wanted to eat it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was remembering the cooking process, or maybe it was because I was remembering the cooking process, but I really wanted to eat yakimeshi.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Besides, it should be easy, so I'll be fine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I took what I needed and went to the kitchen, where other adventurers were also cooking.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Luckily, the kitchen table was empty.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I explained the cooking process to my father and we cooked together.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Bon appétit!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I tilted my head when I saw what was done.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I think the rice was a little more dry than usual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Is something wrong?　It's delicious.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I thought the rice was a little more dry.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Too much water?　Is it the heat?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Next time, let's cook it on a little higher heat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But it's easy to fail when cooking over high heat, isn't it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Thank you for the meal."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I was stacking the plates, he quickly took them away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy, go to bed. I'll wash these.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Are you okay?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can do the dishes with just one hand. It will be a little messy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

She laughed and went to the kitchen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was sleepy, probably because my stomach was full.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I decided to sleep in the tent and go back to sleep.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I go back inside the tent and arrange a place to sleep.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

As I lay down, I felt my consciousness fade away.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

He was very sleepy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was so sleepy that I could hardly hear myself say, "Hm?　Hmm?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

When I open my eyes, it is a little dim.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked around the tent and saw Sora and the others sleeping close to me.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

My head is clear from a good night's sleep.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I get up and stretch my arms up, my back feels nice and straight.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder if Dad is outside?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I stand up and stretch my arms upward again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I twist my hips from side to side, relaxing my body before leaving the tent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What's that?　He's not here.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I wonder where he went.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

But still, it's already evening.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I must have slept well.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look around the tent.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Next to the tent, female adventurers are enjoying drinks as usual.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

On the other side of the tent, children were doing something at a desk.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What is it?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It's the usual scene of the past few days, but something feels off.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look around again.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'That's scary. Yeah, I wonder what's going to happen.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Right."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I hear the children's voices.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, the forest is in such a state, it's scary, isn't it?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Huh?　There's something strange happening in the forest, and yet ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

So why hasn't anything changed in this village?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

It was certainly less lively than the other villages, but today was the same as a few days ago.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I look around the square.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The adventurers are drinking, eating, and making noise, as if they have no sense of anxiety or frustration, even though they haven't been able to go to the forest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ivy, good morning. You were sleeping so well I didn't wake you up. What's wrong?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I looked at my father's voice and saw that he was holding a pot.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Apparently, he was cooking.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Oh, this?　I made it with the help of the women next door.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Isn't that funny, Dad?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"What?　Cooking?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The father anxiously opened the lid of the pot to check inside.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, it's not. Why is this village and square so normal when the forest is in such a state?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The father looked around with an expression of surprise on his face.
