The three of us turned around and saw that the people coming by the roadside turned out to be our father Cusfert and a small group of village guards.

"It seems that Alice, you don’t have to be sad or worried anymore."I bumped Alice behind me

"dad! Seluka waved his hands excitedly.

Then a group of people came to us......

"Okay, it'll be fine now. You should pay attention to rest when you go back."A middle-aged man used sacred magic to treat Alice's foot injury.

"I understand, thank you very much."Alice smiled and thanked

"Thank you so much."X3

"Then let's go back together." said Cusfert.

"That's fine."I got up and wanted to get the package, but the guards picked it up first.

"Leave this to us."A young man said with a smile

"Wow, there’s even a jumping bunny"

"Yes, there are many more"

"...."

I have heard many similar compliments and exclamations, but I have no reaction.

"Then let's go, Alice, and I'll carry you."Cass said uniquely and carried Alice on his back.

"oh...."Alice agreed softly, but I always felt that Alice was not so happy.

With everyone’s help, we quickly returned to the village, at the north gate of the village

"I still have something to do, so you should go back first. I will ask someone to hand over these things on my behalf. Sorry, Alice can only send you here. We have to go to the pasture in the west."

Cathfort put Alice on my back and said apologetically.

"Well, it's okay, Father, you'd better go and get busy."Alice grabbed my neck with both hands and said without caring.

"Dad, be careful on the road"

"Really, then Siven, these two people will be left to you."Cathfort touched my head and then followed the crowd towards the west.

"Let's go back too"

"good!"

Then we walked towards the east, towards home.......

As soon as I got home, I took off Alice's shoes and put them on the bench in the living room. Seluka also collapsed on the chair as soon as she walked in.

"Thank you both for your hard work."I wiped the sweat from my forehead and looked at the two of them with my waist.

Then I came to the dining table, picked up the kettle on the table, poured two glasses of water, walked back to the two of them, and then sat on the other end of the bench.

"Give"

"Swain, I'm sorry."

"Thanks."

The two of them drank heavily from the water glasses.

"Gudong Gudong~"

"Drink slowly, what else?"I looked at the two people who drank quickly and raised the water bottles in their hands to signal.

But they had already finished one cup.

"Want another drink?"

I asked again, and the two of them handed me the water glass in their hands in a tacit understanding, and I filled it up again, but this time they only took a few sips and then stopped.

"It seems that he has calmed down."

Then I stood up and looked up outside the window. It was already dusk, and many chimneys in each house were starting to emit white smoke.

"Is it already this time? It takes longer than I thought. It seems like I have to cook."I muttered

"In that case, I'll get ready right away."Hearing the sound, Alice, who was half lying on the wooden chair, quickly remembered to put on her shoes and go to the kitchen, but I grabbed my calf and pushed her back to the bench.

"Sister, forget it, just stay here and rest, and you! Seluka, sit back too!"

I will take advantage of the gap when I turn around to talk to Alice and call to Seluka who is slipping away.

"Hey~" Then she made a funny face at me....

"You two should have a good rest. I'll figure out what to do for dinner today, but for now I'd better go and boil some hot water for you, and you can take a shower first."I thought for a moment about my next move and said

"....."

After hearing what I said, the two of them looked at me with complicated expressions.

"What are your expressions? Hello!"I looked at the two of them with a somewhat disgusted expression.

"I was just wondering Sven, can you cook?"

"Same as above, after all, my brother never goes into the kitchen."

Alice tilted her head while Seluka raised his head slightly and tapped his chin with his index finger.

"What you need to know is that holding a kitchen knife is different from the knife in your hand"

"And even if my brother can hold a knife, what will you do?"

"......"

Forehead...

Listening to what these two people said, they seemed to find that there were a lot of problems.

Normally I rely on these two people, but now that they are both resting at the same time, I am really blind all of a sudden.

"Forehead...Think about it, there should always be a way."My expression gradually stiffened, and I stuck out my tongue and pursed my lips.

"Then I'd better boil some water for you first."

I thought about it and realized that I should give up thinking.

I went to the water room, poured water into an iron bucket placed on the special stove, brought wood from the wood room, lit a fire, and returned to the house.

"I have boiled the water. Do you want to wait here or go back upstairs?"I looked at the two people and said

"We can just wait here. Alice replied after the two looked at each other.

"That's okay too."Then I turned around and walked closer to the kitchen.

After seeing my figure disappear, Alice changed direction and lay down, and Seluka also moved her head over.

"Seluka, do you think Sven will be kept in there for a few minutes before he comes out?"Alice said with a smile on her face as she looked in the direction of the kitchen.

"Um...I think maybe about three minutes? Seluka said while holding his chin.

"Really? Then I'll bet for two minutes! No, probably shorter than that."Alice covered her mouth and smiled evilly.

"I think I've estimated it short enough."

"No, now I think Swain should be in a daze holding a kitchen knife"

"Ah, think about it, it seems very possible."......

The other half

I came to the kitchen. Although it was not unfamiliar, it was definitely not familiar.

"What should I do now?"

I looked around and saw that there were not many ingredients left, and they were basically all the ingredients for soaking that Alice prepared in the morning and lunch.

"Is it really okay to give me this difficult ingredient for my first time cooking?"The corner of my mouth was twitching. I don't know how to handle fresh ingredients. What are you going to do for me?

I shook my head and walked to the chopping board and picked up the kitchen knife on it. The knife was very small and the wooden handle felt very smooth, but The blade and the single edge still feel sharp and clean. It can be seen that the owner takes great care of it and maintains it regularly. It does not feel very heavy in my hand. I picked it up and turned it around in the air a few times to catch it.....I was at a loss.

What should I do now?

I just stood in front of the chopping board quietly holding the kitchen knife in a daze.

Light the fire first? wrong,! You should prepare the ingredients first!

Then I looked at the pile of ingredients in front of me

"this is? Cut it into pieces or how? this...".....

Soon I walked out of the kitchen.

The two people who heard my footsteps looked over at the same time, and Alice raised her hands.

"Great! I won!"

"Alas~ Brother, can't you stay in there for a while?"

Seluka, who was opposite, put his arms on his legs and his face with his hands, looking at me speechlessly.

My face was covered with black lines, but what can I do? The skill tree of the housekeeping ability is not sad at all, at least the cooking skills I didn't order it

"Sigh~" I sat next to Alice and sighed.

Alice bent her knees and turned around to lean against her.

"How about Swain? Is the kitchen fun?" Still with a bad smile on his face

"Sorry, now I know how wonderful it is to have you two."

I put my forehead against Alice's shoulder and rubbed it twice, then said angrily.

"Hum hum, it’s good to know."Alice touched my head with one hand and said proudly.

"wrong! Didn't you feel wonderful before?"But Seluka, who reacted first, found out that he was busy.

And I????

What you pay attention to is so strange!

"That's not true, I just feel this feeling has deepened now."Being together for a long time has greatly increased my desire to survive.

"So what to do now? How about I go to sister Wilia’s place to buy some food?"

I thought about the tavern in the village, but I don't know what food is available there now.

"Yeah, but I heard things aren't that good over there now." Alice added

"So what to do tonight?"

"Hum, let sister Alice teach you."

"Um?"......

"Right, cut that into shreds and put it aside for later use"

"Something is wrong there! That part is for eating! What you are holding is unnecessary!"

"The fire is too big! Smaller, yes, and now add this in, quick!"....

The current situation is that I moved a small chair in the kitchen, and Alice sat on it to direct me. Seluka is not here now, but is taking a bath in the water room.

Facing Alice sitting there directing, I am now

"ah? Is that so?"

"Um, where should I throw this? By the way, which side is the eating part?"

"Make the fire smaller, make it smaller, whichever one you add! ? Hey, this? How much?"

After a whole fuss, I finally finished most of the work.

Looking at the soup gradually taking shape in the pot, I feel so tired.

"Well, it's almost done now, let me taste it"

"oh!"

Alice was sitting aside and watching, and when she heard the sound, I took a spoon, scooped some out, put it on a small plate and handed it to Alice.

"Silk~"

"How about it?"I looked at Alice who was tasting it carefully with her eyes closed and asked with some anxiety.

"Um.....Not bad for a first time."Alice opened one eye and said playfully

"Phew~" I let out a breath.

I took out the food first, and then I grabbed Alice's shoulders and calves and carried her to the chair at the dining table.

I just came out of the kitchen and bumped into her. Seluka came out of the backyard water room.

She was stunned for a moment when she saw the two of us, but I didn't notice. She put Alice down and turned around and asked:

"It's been washed and ready for dinner."

After that, I returned to the kitchen and put the food on a large dinner plate and took it out.

As soon as I got near the dining table, the door opened. I looked up and saw that Cusfert was back.

"I'm back, eh? Oh, Sven is cooking today. Cusfert reacted quickly after being stunned for a moment.

At this time, I was still wearing the pink lace apron Alice used, so I could tell at a glance.

"Alice was guiding me on how to make the soup and bread."I replied with a smile

"Oh, the soup made by Swain, this is my first time cooking, I want to try it."Casvert seemed to be in a good mood today.

I turned back to the kitchen and took out the bread. When I came out again, Seluka had already come down.

"Well, it's pretty good. Cusfert took a sip and nodded.

"Well, it's okay."Speaking, Seluka took another sip.

Seeing that the two of them were satisfied with their meal, I felt a little relieved. I took off my apron and sat down, and also took a sip of the thick soup.

Hmm....It’s neither delicious nor unpleasant. It’s just an ordinary thick soup. It’s far inferior to Alice’s and Seluka’s.

Although I didn’t expect to be able to surpass the two of them, but I Looking at the other three people, they seemed to be quite happy eating and didn't care at all.

So I smiled bitterly and took another sip.
