CHAPTER 74 – LUMBAGO
After reporting the completion of a request at the guild, Dirkhert and others were having a dinner at the bar in the guild.
A little while after ordering meal.
「Ah~ …… Lumbago」
Meluerina sends a cold gaze to Volsung’s mutter and says.
「You returned quite late last night, aren’t you enjoying the nightlife too much?」
Although the three stand out normally, the eyes of the men and women in the guild turned towards them at Meluerina’s remark.
It appears that everyone is interested in Elf-sama’s night activities.
While the men were simply curious, the women are interested if they could perhaps become『Elf-sama’s night companion』by any chance.
Oblivious to the surroundings, the two continue conversing.
「How did it turn out like that?」
「Because you said that your back hurts all of sudden」
「The inn’s bed is hard, so my back hurts」
「…… You don’t have to restrain yourself because of me, you know? I don’t mind」
「I’m not doing it, I don’t plan on doing it」
Seeing Volsung denying with all his might while frowning, she giggles and says to him.
「I’m just joking. I know that Brother-in-law-sama doesn’t have interest in human women」
Hearing Meluerina’s words, the surroundings suddenly scattered. It’s because they realized they wouldn’t get to know more about Elf-sama’s night activities and the women understood that they had no chance.
「Melu and Vol are talking about adult things, how boring~ Tart」
Dirkhert sits Tart on the table and starts playing while talking.
Tart is replying to Dirkhert’s words by pikopiko nodding its head. The scene of a little child talking with a stuffed bunny is a truly lovely sight.
Again, the female maid and the male Elf sitting at the table with the little child are also a sight to behold.
That table is as if in a world of its own in this bar full of stern-looking men, so it can’t be helped that they are standing out.
「Dirk-sama, the beds in the inn are hard, is your back not hurting?」
「Melu you see~ She has prepared a soft futon for me, so it doesn’t hurt at all~」
「I have taken perfect measures for Dirk-sama’s sake」
「When did you…… Where’s mine?」
「Please prepare it yourself」
Receiving Meluerina’s words, Sister-in-law has been so cold recently…… when he hangs his head, Tart posuposu knocks on his head.
…… After such exchange was made, the meal has been finally brought.
Volsung lifts Tart in his arms and sits next to Dirkhert.
「Now then, let’s eat」
After Meluerina attaches a napkin to Dirkhert and prepares the meal,
「「「Itadakimasu」」」
They began to eat slowly.
