Chapter 5
At about 7 pm, I finally come back to Reese Clinic .
As if I was just returning home from work . I walked in and plopped myself on the sofa where I slept yesterday before calling out Reese’s name and completely lounging .
I relaxed and started by lighting a cigarette .
"What are you relaxing like you’re at your own house!" (Reese)
Reese approaches me before pulling me to a standing position . She grabbed my shirt by the chest and shook me back and forth .
I began laughing while saying, saying "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry" without looking like I’m sorry .
When Reese finally settled down, she asked if I had eaten dinner, then I told her .
"I'll make it, Reese . Just relax and wait . ” (Kaoru)
I didn’t want to eat food similar to yesterday .
I asked her where the kitchen is then I stood up and went towards the direction she pointed .
Behind me, Reese sat and relaxed .
"Where are the ingredients and the seasonings?" (Kaoru)
I called out to her because the kitchen looked sparse .
"Uhh . . . " (Reese)
When I looked at her she suddenly averted her gaze away from mine .
After seeing her reaction, I sigh realizing that she might have never cooked before .
"Well, I don't want to sound like I’m interrogating you . But where are the ingredients? And the seasonings?" (Kaoru)
"These are the groceries I bought today . And all the seasonings are on the lower shelves over there . " (Reese)
Reese presented me with a basket containing several kinds of vegetables and chicken meat .
I received the ingredients and placed them in the kitchen counter .
Then, I opened the lower shelf, checked the seasonings, and decided to make a menu that’s appropriate to the ingredients .
(ED: Now, from here on, the next few paragraphs are written like the steps of a cookbook recipe . There is no 'I' in here so I modified it a little . )
I cut the chicken, the cabbage-like vegetables, and the onion-like vegetables into bite-sized pieces, and put them in a bowl .
Then add soy sauce, cooking wine, and sugar to it, and season with salt .
I mix chicken and vegetables, then, I light a fire and put a frying pan on it .
I added a little oil and when the heat arose I added the bite-sized chicken and vegetable pieces .
It made a good noise and the smell of cooked chicken drifted out from the kitchen .
The vegetables are also cooked cooked well, and the chicken soaked up the juices and became more tender .
Picking up the buns on the table I cut it in half horizontally .
I put the chicken and vegetables on top of the bottom half-bun .
Finally, sandwich it with the remaining bun to complete the chicken burger .

"Whoa . . . " (Kaoru)

The sandwich looked too good to eat .
However, I couldn't beat my hunger .
So, I put the chicken burger on a plate and sat at the table .
"I can't cook a huge variety of food just things that are easy to cook and eat, but if you get hungry, want to cook together?"
I smiled and told Reese .
Reese takes a bite and her face immediately loosens .
The chicken gravy spreads all over the mouth and the sweet and spicy sauce stimulates the tongue .
The vegetables are firm and the taste sweetens as you chew, which pleases the tongue .
Reese has eaten it all up .
She had an expression saying that it wasn't enough, so she made another one from the extra ingredients in the frying pan, she looked happy upon completing it .
With such a look, I could easily imagine what kind of food Reese was eating .
I thought it would be a palate destroying dish again tonight .
I also ate a bite and said it was 30 points .
After finishing the meal, we both sat on the sofa,
"Have you been there today? At the noble family's house?" (Reese)
Reese asks me, sounding quite curious .

"Oh, I've been there . The rewards are perfect!" (Kaoru)
I looked at her then raised my thumbs up .
"How much did you receive . Even the High Priest, who could heal most illnesses, still couldn't cure it, so you must have earned a good amount of money . " (Reese)
Reese looks at me with an extremely curious expression so I decided to tell her .
Then I reached for proof that can be shown easily .
Yeah, I showed her the check .
"Eh? I wonder if I'm seeing things wrong? I'm tired lately . . . One, ten, one hundred, one million . Five million, four hundred fifty thousand liras!? You're not just fooling around! You’re getting a lot of money!!" (Reese)
Reese was surprised and frightened because the digits of the money were blowing her common sense away .
"Ah, it's hard to say, but it's the advance payment . I'll get the same amount next time . " (Kaoru)
Suddenly, Kaoru’s job made Reese’s face stony .
"I wonder how many years until I will reach this amount of money . Is it 100,000 Years? One treatment gives 300 lira, so hahahaha… hahaha… haha…"(Reese)
Reese had a distant look and was laughing in my direction .
Makes sense, I got a shocking amount of money after all .
Suddenly, she notices the sign of the check, and gets surprised again .

"Hey, this isn't the mark of Orvis! A nobleman who has built up a fortune by trade! He is a famous nobleman that everyone in this city knows!" (Reese)
I was not interested in the work of the person who I had helped .
I only thought that he’s a noble so he has money .
"I said it yesterday, but at that time you didn't say anything . " (Kaoru)
Saying it was a pain .
"You just told me the name of the girl patient yesterday . You’re quite strange when people suddenly go to houses like that . " (Reese)
She said with a horrified look .
"Oh, I asked a person I met in the aristocratic area to help me . I got lost quite a bit . I was grasping at straws . I couldn’t navigate the area well . " (Kaoru)
I said while laughing all the way .
As a result, she said she was glad that the patient was doing well, but Reese decided not to ask further .
She thought that she would lose if she started minding it .
After that, I asked for the location of the commercial guild and also asked if there were cigarettes sold there .
When I found out that there were cigarettes in this different world, I couldn’t help do a guts pose .
I have to go there tomorrow so I slept early on the sofa .
