Chapter 81 - And The Slow Life Continues
「Apology letter….is it?」
A few days after we sent back the high-rank adventurers and fellows from the criminals guild tied up with ropes, a guy from the royal capital who introduced himself as the Minister of Defense came.
What they did was a direct provocation towards the Demon King Cornelia even though they’re not aware of it. They took a polite and humble attitude after.
They even said that the king himself would come to apologize if we can wait for a few more days but I said “You don’t have to go that far…” and the matter was settled there.
Incidentally, there was a reason why I forgave them easily or rather…let them go.
As for why, it’s Arisa. She was present during my meeting with the minister and she demanded a lot of national favors related to business.
She had written dozens of contracts on the spot. It goes without saying that my brides are all horrible…
So—

Miyamoto took a direct hit from Cornelia’s extreme magic.
Maria said, “Turned to dust.”
Sonja said, “Turned to star nano desu yo.”
Mayu said, “A lot of evil things will happen if that was kept alive.”
….That’s it.
Anyway, that was amazing.
First, Cornelia blew Miyamoto a few kilometers away using wind magic and then, she flew into the sky. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺
Then, Cornelia transformed into a gigantic dragon—and a beam came out from her mouth that looked like something similar to world popular shounen manga where aliens with food names transformed to blonde superhumans.
As a result, a crater with a radius of about a kilometer was created.
I didn’t ask for it but the voice of god said “Even if you have farm work resistance level 10, you will receive a fair amount of damage if you take a direct hit.”.
Only fair!?
Thinking about it, it seems like skills that reached level 10 are a cheat themselves.
I’m going to conclude that Miyamoto is missing. We can’t say he is dead or alive since we never find any corpse.
—if he’s dead, that would leave a bad taste in my mouth.

As for Atom-kun, he has been offered a job at our company as a cook.
According to him, he was troubled by the fact that if he belonged to a criminal guild, he might be forced to do something evil one day.
He and Mayu seemed to have known each other since childhood and no one objected when she guaranteed him to be a good person.
By the way, I’m the head chef so I’m only supposed to be in the kitchen when we get some rare ingredients. And, so, well—
「Aniki! How can it taste like this!?」
That’s Atom-kun when he tastes the ingredients. He’s a diligent cook and….pretty useful.
As for the person himself, he’s like a gag character. He’s a macho guy but a sage, he’s a lolicon and a galge fanatic but looks like someone who kills for fun….
Maa, to put it in a good way, he’s kind and powerful.

Anyway, since he’s the one cooking in his family, he has good foundation in cooking.
I lived alone for a long time and I like cooking that I can even make my own homemade ramen…maa, I’m not that good but the food I cook is usually delicious.
I know how to utilize chemical seasonings and I feel like most of my dishes can score 70 points.
Mayu can also cook. Since it is time for a banquet, the ones in charge of cooking are me, Mayu, Atom-kun, Ouroboros, and Maria.
To be honest, it was tough because everyone drinks and eats like crazy.

The night of the banquet, when I warned Atom-kun about drinking….
「Eh? But I’m 20 years old.」
「What are you saying? Aren’t you in high school?」
I suddenly thought about that mysterious room where time flew faster but it seems like even without considering that, there won’t be a problem.
「No, I’m kind of embarrassed to admit it but….you know aniki…alright, I’ll say it. I was held back a year in high school. Not just once nor twice, but thrice.」
—-idiot. There’s a genuine idiot here.
Even Mayu, who knew about it, was holding back her laughter. She’s even on the verge of collapse.
Incidentally, he worked part-time for school expenses and also helped with the expenses of their family. He’s a really good kid.
As for me, I was quite happy that my burden at night will be finally reduced….Atom-kun is here after all.
With the 10 elves, I have to do it with 15 people each night. Or rather, it was even harder because I’m attacked by multiple individuals.
Sonja the hand riding rabbit, Arisa the fox beastkin, and Maria the succubus…when they’re in their mating season, even Atom-kun would be fine.
However, after observing the situation for about a week, I have not seen anyone who goes to Atom-kun’s remote hut at night.
I asked Sonja why—
「Everyone loves Tatsuya, of course we’ll sleep together with you nano desu yo.」
She said that with a “What are you even asking?” expression.
