ㅤ
We’re in the City of Fefki.
ㅤ
“Since it’s late, we’ll stay overnight in this city.”
“Is that okay, Miss Ikkoji?”
“Don’t worry about it. You all are benefactors after all.”
ㅤ
If we continue forcing ourselves and someone gets injured, it would be terrible.
I’ll accept the generous offer.
ㅤ
“Thank you, Miss Ikkoji.”
“Sure thing. Let’s have a meal for now. Although, since the transportation is halted, I can only offer you some dried meat and hard bread.”
ㅤ
Transportation has stopped. . . . . .?
Ah, that’s right, the country is in turmoil because of the Rotten Princess right now, so no one can come in from outside.
ㅤ
Really, they do terrible things; we must hurry and put a stop to it.
ㅤ
『Big Sister.』『Peewee, Hungry.』『Stew.』
ㅤ
Kumakichi-kun and the others are expressing their hunger.
Miss Ikkoji speaks with an apologetic look.
ㅤ
“I’m sorry, little monsters, I wanted to make stew but the ingredients. . . . . .”
“It’s fine, Miss Ikkoji. If you pray.”
“Huh. . . . . .?”
ㅤ
Miss Ikkoji is dumbfounded. . . . . .
But, twitching her mouth, she shakes her head, saying, “No, no. . . . . .”
ㅤ
“Praying, you mean, having food and thanking for the blessings, right?”
“Yes.”
“But we have no food.”
“It’s there. If you pray, God will bless us.”
“T, That’s. . . . . .a metaphor, isn’t it?”
“No, God is always watching us. If we offer a prayer, God will bless us with something to eat. Just watch.”
ㅤ
I close my eyes and pray to God.
“Please God, grant us humble sustenance,”” whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!”
ㅤ
As I’m praying, Miss Ikkoji screams.
When I open my eyes, there are vines of food fruit growing there.
ㅤ
“What’s this?! Coconuts?! Vines are growing! And we’re indoors! What’s going on?!”
“It’s God’s food.”
“Whaaaaat?! What does that mean?!”
ㅤ
Indeed, someone seeing it for the first time might be surprised.
Kumakichi-kun demonstrates by picking one of the food fruits.
ㅤ
When he opens the lid. . . . . .
ㅤ
“What is thisssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss?!”
『You don’t know stew, Dwarf Big Sister?』
“I know it! That’s why I’m shocked!!!!!!!!!”
ㅤ
Kumakichi-kun is skillfully using both hands to eat the stew.
This child is really well-mannered, isn’t he? Fufufu.
ㅤ
“Hehe, not at all! You’re acting all nonchalant about it! Plants! This is a plant, right?!”
“Yes, so what?”
“Where in the world is there a plant that has stew in it?!”
“? It’s here though.”
“It’s here and THAT’S what’s wrong!!!!”
ㅤ
Strange. . . . . .
Is this weird?
ㅤ
“Isn’t it natural not to have seen it since it’s something God made? Isn’t it?”
“No, you made it, didn’t you. . . . . .!”
“No, no, I just prayed.”
“Open your eyes!”
“I can’t open my eyes while praying.”
“Aghhhhhhhh! What’s with you! Seriously, what’s with youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!”
ㅤ
Miss Ikkoji holds her head and rocks her body.
ㅤ
“Let’s be quiet during the meal.”
“Whose! Fault! Do you think it iiiiiiiiiis!”
“Whose fault?”
“It’s youuuuuuu!”
ㅤ
Did I do something. . . . . .?
I just prayed though. . . . . .
ㅤ
『Come on, Dwarf’s Big Sister, try eating this. It’ll fly, won’t it?』
ㅤ
Kumakichi-kun plucks a fruit of food and hands it to Miss Ikkoji.
She opens the lid with suspicion and sips the stew.
ㅤ
“It’s sooooooo delicious!”
ㅤ
With tears in her eyes, Miss Ikkoji hungrily eats the stew (the fruit of food comes with a spoon).
ㅤ
“What the! This is the first time I’ve tasted such delicious stew in my life! How tasty is this!”
“That’s good to hear. Let’s give thanks to God once you’ve finished eating.”
“Oh, Miss Kyrie, you really are. . . . . .a Goddess.”
ㅤ
No, no, no, no. . . . . .
ㅤ
“That’s not me. . . . . .”
『『『Thank you, Goddess Kyrie!』』』
“I told you, it’s not me!”
ㅤ
Monsters laughing heartily.
They’re teasing me again, naughty children.
ㅤ
From a distance, Miss Ikkoji observes this scene.
ㅤ
“This stew is of higher quality than the restaurants with lines in the capital. If we sell this fruit, we’ll definitely make a fortune. . . . . .”
“We’re not selling it.”
“Why not?!”
“Because it’s a blessing given to us by God.”
ㅤ
It’s outrageous to sell something that God have provided us for free, just to make money.
ㅤ
“I mean. . . . . .Miss Kyrie. . . . . .she’s. . . . . .like that.”
“Like what?”
“In many ways, she’s silly. . . . . .”
ㅤ
S, Silly?
What?!
No way. . . . . .
ㅤ
“No, I don’t mean it in a bad way. It’s more like, honestly silly, or pure in a good sense.”
“I, I see. . . . . .But I’m not silly, right?”
ㅤ
I ask Mr. Gankoji.
He avoids my eyes. . . . . .
ㅤ
Eh?!
ㅤ
“D, Decker-chan! I, I’m not
. . . . . .silly, right?”
“W, Well. . . . . .Ga, Gankoji! The stew’s going to get cold! Open up!”
ㅤ
She dodged the question!!!!!
Eh, no, no way. . . . . .
ㅤ
“Ku, Kumakichi-kun. . . . . .I’m not silly, am I?”
ㅤ
The monsters are all kind.
I hug Kumakichi-kun and ask him.
ㅤ
『Big Sister Isn’t silly at all!』
“Kumakichi-kun!”
『Just a bit of a weirdo!』
“Kumakichi-kun?!”
ㅤ
Eh, eh?! Was I. . . . . .a weirdo?!
