by fnovelpiatweet-
I woke up from bed listening to the birds singing the morning.
I thought it was an illusion, but I actually heard birdsong outside the yard.
When I looked out the window, it seemed like the sound was not coming from my house, but from Ellis’ mansion right next door.
Yesterday, I went to sleep hugging Nam Da-eun, but seeing that there was no one next to me, I guess I woke up first.
“Ah, I’m tired.”
As I stretched and came out of the room, the fragrant scent of coffee wafted in the air.
It was Nam Da-eun sitting at the living room table.
“good morning.”
“Yeah. Did you sleep well?”
Just like always in the morning, Nam Da-eun slightly raised the corners of her mouth and smiled.
There was no difference whether it was a narrow dormitory or a spacious house.
“Huh….”
Soon Liliana came out of the room, sobbing like a zombie.
As if I had already forgotten what I was embarrassed about yesterday, I yawned and went into the bathroom.
Even though he looks like that, he takes good care of cleanliness.
I sat blankly on the sofa, looked at Liliana, and then spoke to Nam Da-eun.
“Ugh, I always hate Mondays.”
“But you’re comfortable today, right?”
sniffling-
I blinked as I looked at Nam Da-eun drinking coffee.
Can Monday be convenient?
“What’s comfortable?”
“Did you see the group message from the academy?”
“Group message?”
“Yes. I told you I would have shortened classes.”
As soon as I heard Nam Da-eun’s words, I checked my smart watch.
Piled up messages.
I turned off the alarm unless there was a message from the heroine, and it was like this.
My number was leaked out, so I’m getting a lot of useless contacts, like interview requests, commercial shoots, and guild recruitment texts.
“Is it true?”
There was indeed a message announcing shortened classes.
I guess I should change my number and turn on the alarm. I might miss an important message.
“huh?”
When you are happy about the shortened class.
I saw a message shining at the top.
This is Professor Lim Sol’s message.
I only discovered it because I sent the message early in the morning while I was still asleep.
-Professor Lim Sol: Sorry. I can’t contact you for a while. I think a lot will change.
“…?”
How busy was this meticulous professor that he made this typo?
I was thinking about calling or sending a message… Since I was busy, I decided to leave it alone for now.
Anyway, I was planning on going to say hello one last time before going to France, so I should ask in person then.
“By the way, how are you and Dahee going to school when I’m gone for a week?”
Since the contract for this house was in my name, someday it will be discovered that it is my property.
However, if it is discovered that you are living with Nam Da-eun, it becomes very bothersome.
“That’s something I’ve been thinking about.”
At that time, Scarlett walked up from behind.

Nam Da-eun’s problem was solved surprisingly easily.
Scarlett told me about the magic tools used at Ellis’ house.
It is said that if you have this, you will not be able to see it from the outside when you go in or out. The effect will spread around the house, so it will be easy if you have this.
There was such a good magic tool.
It was too big to be used in the dormitory, but since the yard was all that was left in our house, we just threw it there.
“The world is great.”
“Hoyeon, what do you mean?”
“Nothing.”
“What? It’s meaningless.”
The twins Rumi and Lucy sit next to each other in class.
It’s goodbye to the cute twins for a week.
“Didn’t you say it was Iron Blood Guild training?”
“Ugh. It was like that.”
“Hey, it’s going well as expected.”
The Sangvis Guild only contacted the top first-year students. This means that Lucy and Rumi have become quite strong now.
“Hoyeon, you said it was the Iris Guild… If you’re abroad, I might not be able to see you for a week.”
“I can’t help it. Rumi. It will be a good opportunity for Lee Ho-yeon as well.”
“….”
Rumi became sullen, and Lucy consoled her.
I feel sorry for the two who don’t know anything, but I can’t help it.
It was definitely an important opportunity for me.
Lucy, who was patting Rumi, made eye contact with me.
“But…are you going to say hello before you go? In the club room.”
“Well, I’ll be looking forward to it too….”
“Yes, of course.”
The heroines have to meet each other once anyway.
I haven’t been able to see you in a week, so of course I have to say hello.
… I don’t know how strong that greeting will be.

Morning class is cooking time.
You may wonder what kind of bullshit this is, but surprisingly, it is said to be a necessary skill level when going to a place like a dungeon.
During dungeon or gate expeditions where you don’t know how long the expedition will last, you often bring ingredients rather than cooking.
Among subspace artifacts, there are many that fix time, but in dungeons, there are places that invalidate artifacts. Naturally, I tend to take ingredients that can be stored for a long time and make simple dishes.
Of course, this means that it is not a necessary class for someone like Ellis… However, there is no need to say that in regular classes.
All the cadets started cooking while looking at the ingredients in front of them.
Actually, it wasn’t a very serious class.
The guest chef in front of us also told us to relax before going to practice, so most of us acted in a playful way.
The person who unexpectedly received an evaluation for the logo was Nam Da-eun.
I made a delicious-looking stew that best suited the class topic and had a pretty color that made my mouth water.
“… Cadet Da-eun is amazing. I think she will make a good bride.”
“thank you.”
By the standards of the old world, this was an incredibly sexist remark, but fortunately, no one in this world felt uncomfortable.
It was a world where if you did something wrong, you would die without discrimination, whether you were a woman or a man, so it must have been different from my standards.
They say that people only come to their senses when they are beaten, but the growth background is so important.
Behind him, Ellis was seen staring blankly while holding a charred muffin in her hand.
Let’s pretend we don’t know about that.
Meanwhile, most of the male cadets around me were having a hard time.
“Hoyeon Lee, are you good at cooking?”
“Unfortunately, that’s not the case.”
Kim Young-han, who had given up on cooking, came up to me and played a joke.
I made a decent amount of kimchi stew.
Normally, the male protagonist of this genre must be good at cooking… Unfortunately, there is no such perk.
However, since I have experience living alone, I can make a simple kimchi stew.
“…The color seems to be very dark. Is that a good thing?”
“Would you like to have a bite?”
“I was waiting for you to say that.”
In case there was a problem with the cooking process, Kim Young-han was used as Kimisanggung.
Heroine and I should test it before eating it.
Kim Young-han, who scooped up a ladle into a bowl, put every bit of meat in his mouth and nodded.
“oh….”
“Is it worth eating?”
How much experience do I have living alone?
Kimchi stew is a food that cannot be boiled.
Add kimchi, add meat, add vegetables, add water, and mix well.
How easy.
Kim Young-han savored the stew and then opened his mouth.
“You’re really bad at cooking.”
“…okay?”
I ate the kimchi stew with the spoon I had.
No, it’s just okay to eat… .
“Mr. Hoyeon, can I try it too?”
At that time, Rumi came to see me looking depressed.
“Of course. Please evaluate me properly, Rumi.”
okay.
There is no way a man blinded by jealousy like Kim Young-han could fairly evaluate the taste of my stew.
Our Rumi will evaluate you properly.
“Sigh….”
gulp.
“Wow, it’s delicious….”
Rumi swallowed her kimchi stew with her eyes shaking.
“…No, that’s it?”
I don’t know one person, but if two people do something like that, my confidence really drops.
“Give it to me. I want to try it too.”
Lucy approached Rumi, whose expression was becoming increasingly hard.
“You are my last hope, Lucy.”
Yum.
Lucy, who put the stew in her mouth, slowly looked away and looked.
“Um, um… I don’t think I can’t, uh….”
“Let’s just stop.”
The premise was wrong from the beginning.
If you think about it, why would I cook?
It’s okay if someone else does it for you.
For example, Nam Da-eun said she would make a good bride.
Yes, Da-eun can do it.
As I was thinking that, someone came towards me across the noisy classroom.
“I got complimented on this by the professor. Would you like to have a bite?”
“…?Uh, yeah.”
Before I knew it, Nam Da-eun was standing in front of me and naturally served stew in my bowl.
It’s like a friendly look that you only see at home.
I took the stew Nam Da-eun gave me with a confused expression and put it in my mouth.
A stew full of appetizing aroma and flavor. The chewy texture was so satisfying that it was hard to believe it was a preserved food.
Yum Yum.
“…It’s really delicious.”
Compared to this stew, my kimchi stew is trash.
“I’m glad. I mainly included things you like.”
Nam Da-eun smiled as if she was satisfied with my compliment, took the stew and returned to her original seat.
Then he started clearing up his seat with an expressionless expression as if nothing had happened.
“Were you that close to Nam Da-eun? That’s fascinating.”
The other cadets around me were whispering and looking in this direction, but only Kim Young-han, who was close to me, spoke directly.
“… Yes. In my own way.”
“I don’t think it’s right.”
I couldn’t answer because I didn’t understand the sudden situation.
Even though we decided not to pretend to be friends here, what kind of change of heart took place?
★Heroine status window
[Nam Da-eun]
-[Likeability: 100](+0.9)
-[Sex Drive: 70]
-[Appetite: 30]
-[Fatigue: 35]
Current status: Could it have been a public nuisance? But I wanted to do it in front of others at least once.
“….”
I looked at Nam Da-eun’s status window and laughed.
It would have been great if I had told you in advance. I couldn’t resist the impulse of the moment. Da-eun.
Is it because I fucked him too hard yesterday?
Nam Da-eun also seems to lose her composure sometimes.
In the corner of my vision, Ellis was looking at me with a reluctant look. Since I told Alice that we were living together, that gaze also bothered me for some reason.
“Lee Ho-yeon! Eat mine, too!”
“Please eat mine too….”
Lucy and Rumi blinked at Nam Da-eun, who had given me the stew, and then held out the food to me with their hands shaking.
It looks like she lacks confidence because her visuals are much weaker than those of Nam Da-eun.
Of course, everything was delicious compared to my kimchi stew.
“…What? Why is it so delicious?”
Quite surprisingly.
Now I see that it wasn’t my kimchi stew that was the problem, but the other food was so delicious.
“Really? I’m glad… But when did you get so close to Nam Da-eun?”
“I should have fed you my fried rice first….”
“…Let’s talk about that later.”
I tried to avoid the clinging gaze of the twins.
“When? Lunchtime?”
But Lucy didn’t give up and grabbed my arm.
“…No, I have work to do during lunch time.”
“The nurse’s office?”
“Yes. I’ll see you after I go to the nurse’s office.”
“all right.”
Fortunately, Rumi nodded, and seeing Rumi’s reaction, Lucy also let go of my arm.
“Then I’ll wait for you in the club room… so you must come.”
“I will also hold my breath until Ho-yeon comes. Breathe.”
Lucy looked up at me cautiously, and Rumi clenched her fists and puffed out her cheeks cutely.
“Don’t worry. I’ll go no matter what.”
I ate the kimchi stew I worked so hard to make, smiling at his cute charm.
There is a lot to do.
It’s a waste of time to eat during lunch, so I’ll have to eat this.
