Marie and her companions decided to spend the night in the village.
They used magic to purify the well water that had been poisoned.
ㅤ
Afterwards, Kaito used a portable restaurant to prepare stew.
Marie gracefully sips the stew alone inside the restaurant.
ㅤ
“It’s delicious. . . . . .”
ㅤ
“Hmm,” Marie sighs as she speaks.
ㅤ
“Could use a bit more ingredients though.”
『Don’t be picky, Witch-sama.』
ㅤ
Ose, the demon, curls up on the table.
The stew contains Bazan meat and dried herbs.
ㅤ
“That beastman boy worked hard too. Using the leftover herbs and meat you had for potions, Witch-sama, he managed to create something this delicious.”
“Of course. He’s a culinary genius; that’s why I took an interest in him.”
“Is that so. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Ose also laps up the stew.
Suddenly, Marie notices something.
ㅤ
“Where’s Kaito?”
“He’s serving the stew to the villagers.”
“By himself?”
“Yes.”
“I see. . . . . .”
ㅤ
Marie pouts her lips.
ㅤ
“Jealous that Kaito’s being taken away? How cute—ow ow ow!”
ㅤ
Marie squashes Ose with wind magic.
ㅤ
“Don’t misunderstand. I just want seconds.”
“Go get it yourself. . . . . . Ow. How much of this is you being tsundere?”
“There’s no tsun or dere here. Fine, I’ll go get it myself.”
ㅤ
Marie gets up from her chair and leaves the restaurant.
Ose follows her with a sigh.
ㅤ
Upon passing through a space-connecting door, they find. . . . . .
ㅤ
“Witch-sama has arrived!” “Witch-sama!”
ㅤ
The villagers, who now look remarkably healthy, are there.
They run towards her with smiles.
ㅤ
“What’s going on? Weren’t these villagers looking like they were on death’s door just moments ago?”
ㅤ
Due to malnutrition, their cheeks should have been hollow, and they should have been staggering just to stand.
But now, all the villagers were standing strong.
ㅤ
Their skin was also radiant and healthy.
ㅤ
“It’s all thanks to Witch-sama!”
ㅤ
Kaito explains.
ㅤ
“Once they ate this stew, everyone quickly recovered!”
“Could it be because the stew you made was delicious?”
ㅤ
Ose takes a lick of the villagers’ portion of the stew.
ㅤ
“I get it. This stew is packed with magical power.”
“What do you mean?”
“You used purification magic on the water for the stew, right? At that time, you infused a significant amount of magical power into the water. When they consumed it, they regained their energy.”
ㅤ
Lack of magical power can harm the body.
They were deficient in magical power.
ㅤ
Then they drank the purified water Marie made.
As a result, not only did their magical power recover, but their bodies were also revitalized, making them energetic.
ㅤ
“Witch-sama, as expected of you! Not only did you purify the water, but you’ve also revitalized the villagers.”
ㅤ
It was a complete misunderstanding.
I had no intention of revitalizing them.
ㅤ
“Ugh. . . . . .”
『Huh? What happened to your usual misunderstandings?』
“. . . . . .It’s too much hassle. Just pass me another serving of stew.”
“Of course!”
ㅤ
Marie eats her stew, utterly unconcerned by the praise coming at her from all sides.
ㅤ
“Behaving as if helping people is only natural!”
“Indeed, Witch-sama is a wonderful person!”
“As expected of Witch-sama!”
ㅤ
. . . . . .Marie decided to just let them say whatever they wanted.
