Chapter 53: Paw Belt
Chapter 53: Paw Belt
The next day after the chocolate party with Amanda-san and Noir, I woke up to the sounds of the merchants closing and tidying up their stores in the courtyard.
A buzzing noise could be heard from outside the window.
The light that shone through the window felt nice.
It seems that the weather is nice today.
“Fwaa~h! I overslept again.”
I yawned as I woke up and saw Noir playing with Purun soundlessly as if they were trying not to wake me up. Noticing me, Noir cried, “Nyaa.”
The two were playing [Look That Way!] using Noir’s tail. I taught Purun before when it seemed to bee playing with Noir’s tail since it seemed to be having so much fun, and then they often played it.
“Morning, Noir and Purun.”
“Nya-u.”
Pururun.
After Noir lowered its head towards Purun, Purun hopped up to Noir’s head.
It seemed that their synchronization was perfect. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
Then the two of them jumped on top of my bed, greeting me once more.
“Nyaa.”
Purupururun.
“Let’s have lots of funs today too, Noir and Purun.”
“Nyaan.”
Noir washed its face with its forefoot as if saying ‘I ate lots of delicious stuff.’ Purun also stretched its body front-to-back as if agreeing with Noir.
Lately, Purun had been stretching its body front-to-back during the times when it was happy or having fun. When it was sad, it became flat, so it was easy to tell.
Slimes also feel emotions, huh~
“Now then. I need to get changed and eat breakfast.”
I changed from my pajamas to the pink dress that Georg-san made.
Hm~ Since I’d only be eating breakfast, there’s no need to wear my white cat robe, right?
As I was thinking about it, I could hear the sound of the door being opened, and Amanda-san entered the room.
“G-good morning, Amanda-san.”
“Morning, Yuuri-chan. Yesterday was fun, wasn’t it?”
“Yes!”
Being told the same thing that I just said to Noir, I reflexively grinned.
Ehehe. Amanda-san is also thinking of the same thing~
“What about this morning’s breakfast? Shall we go to the dining room?”
“Eh, but…”
We had been refraining from using the dining room for quite a while in order to avoid Count Rainier who wanted to make Amanda-san his second wife. So I was wondering if it was alright, but I heard that he had left Izel fort early this morning.
Then, it should be fine!
Two people and two monsters went to the dining room together. Perhaps it was due to that it was already past the most crowded time, but there weren’t too many people on our way.
“What is today’s meal, I wonder?”
After one sits down, a junior knight will come with a tray on their hands. A junior knight is someone who wants to become a knight but can’t go to the school. They are receiving swordsmanship lessons while doing chores in the chivalric order, and apparently they can become a knight as long as they receive recommendation from at least three knights and one of the chivalric order’s executives.
“Ah, we’re having ham today.”
A normal breakfast here would usually consist of cooking that used bread, soup, and beans; and also cooking that used meat akin to a ham and sausage. As for the dessert, there were lots of fruits. Fresh vegetables were there too, but there was no dressing, so it felt like chewing on leaves.
Hmm… Since there were only Western cooking, I missed Japanese cooking.
“Oh my. Today is Boafang’s ham, huh?”
As expected, it was a monster’s ham too, huh?
But it’s delicious. Chomp, chomp.
Noir also ate the ham from the plate that was put on the floor, and next to it was a small plate of candies for the round, tumbling Purun.
Purun moved and took in the candies before it happily quivered.
Noir and Purun were completely used to living in this Izel fort.
Apparently, the two also secretly received snacks from the knights.
Hm, hm. This too, was because Noir and Purun were cute.
“Yuuri and Amanda, good morning.”
Then, Ar-niisama’s voice could be heard.
Ar-niisama, thanks for your hard work yesterday!
“Argo, what’s the matter?”
Ar-niisama took a seat next to me and greeted me ‘good morning’ by brushing my hair gently first thing first. His gentle water-colored eyes were looking at me tenderly.
“Good morning, Ar-niisama.”
“Oh my, what’s wrong? Aren’t you busy cleaning up after the caravan?”
“No, Georg was a little—”
“What’s happened with Georg?!”
The moment Georg-san’s name appeared, Amanda-san enthusiastically drew closer to Ar-niisama’s seat.
Ar-niisama said, “Wait a little bit,” and held Amanda-san back.
“Nah… Before, there was a belt that Amanda requested to give a magic too, wasn’t there?”
“Yeah. It’s Yuuri-chan’s belt.”
We were going for the Earth Labyrinth after this, but since my equipment weren’t ready yet, we had Georg-san apply magic to lots of things.
Among them was one belt, but thinking that I was already wearing a white cat robe, I requested him to do that to the paw belt.
It was a belt with the design of paws meeting in the middle as if having a handshake, and it was a stylish equipment that I purchased from the white cat NPC, the same place where I bought my white cat robe.
What happened to that paw belt?
