NOVEL NEXT chapter 24
24 – Delicious Date (2)
The purpose of this date was to buy Perry’s supplies, so
First, we stopped by the largest grocery store in town.
When I came inside, it was a place that sold everything from pencils and ballpoint pens to small daggers.
In the corner, things to be used for animals were also on sale.
After entering the store, Stella walked away rather calmly.
He picked up a comb made for small animals and held it out to me.
“How about this comb?”
“Um… It’s small, but wouldn’t it be big for Perry?”
When combing the fur, use a comb that is suitable for the animal.
Otherwise, the fur can get caught and the animals can get sick.
“Then, how about this slightly smaller one?”
“Oh, this is just fine.”
What I handed over this time was a fine, small comb that would be used for dyeing in the other world.
The only difference is that it’s made of ivory, not plastic.
To the extent that pretty flower patterns are drawn on it?
“Next time… How about this hair dryer? Made by the most skillful artisan in town.”
“Oh, isn’t that expensive? I thought magic tools were expensive.”
The price was only 3 Dong.
In terms of Korean won, the amount is about 30,000 won.
“Those things are cheap because they are mass-produced. Expensive things like magical energy or magic stone lamps are a bit expensive.”
“Speaking of the magic stone light… You mean the one hanging in the dorm room?”
“Yes, it’s a bit cheap, but it’s on the expensive side.”
It looks luxurious, but it’s expensive.
Because there are many priests who study even at night or work hard on self-development,
It seems that they put a bright light on it.
Really, being considerate in many areas is no joke…
It’s like a newlywed couple choosing home appliances, so they’re choosing things.
It’s a bit embarrassing, but at the same time happy, it’s a mysterious feeling.
Until a while ago, it was all about talking and making skinships in a secret room.
Can’t we go out and go on a date while holding hands now?
*
A comb and hair dryer, plus animal shampoo and a few towels.
I bought a small cushion and blanket.
“How will you use the cushion and blanket?”
“I thought it would be warmer if I put a cushion underneath and a blanket over it.”
“Seobang-nim is really kind.”
Stella always praises me for being kind and kind, even for trivial things.
He stroked my hair lightly.
“By the way…Stella.”
“Yes? What’s wrong, Mr. Seo?”
“Stella likes to stroke my hair.”
“Yes, I like it because it’s so cute.”
I don’t know what’s cute, but if Stella likes to stroke her hair
I am confident that I will be petted in a cute way.
No, I don’t think it would be bad to designate that as a duty, right?
The duty of being petted by a saintess might envy someone who hears about it.
Anyway, it’s cute…
I used to listen to it often when I was in school
At that time, it was a word only used by girls when they made fun of me, so I didn’t like it.
It feels good to have Stella write it.
“Next time…”
Stella, who was carrying a shopping cart, turned the corner and pointed her finger in her direction.
Someone ran out and bumped into me.
Because it was only for a moment, the other person couldn’t avoid it, and Stella couldn’t avoid it either.
In the end, a contact accident happened.
I barely supported Stella from behind when she almost fell.
Perhaps because of that, only the person who collided with Stella was thrown back and fell.
Unfortunately…
Still, you are the perpetrator of the contact accident, so take it sweetly.
What?
I looked closely at the people who fell behind
They were small children with pure smiles on their faces.
Even though I bumped into and fell, I still smile without losing my smile
Ever since I was young, I thought that being a confident person meant these kinds of children.
“Saintess! Please play!”
“Please make candy like last time!”
Boys and girls asked for different things
Stella crouched down, then she patted them both on the head, smiling broadly.
“Is it better than that? Aren’t you hurt?”
“I’m not hurt!”
“Me too!”
“In case you don’t know, I’ll cast a recovery spell.”
Perhaps she is worried about her child, she begins to recite the spell for the recovery magic MAX.
At the same time, green light began to shine on the children…
Not much has changed.
It seems that there was no real pain.
“Today I’m on a date with Mr. Seo, so I don’t think I’ll be able to play because I’m busy.”
“Is the saintess busy? Then we’ll go home.”
“The teacher told me not to bother her when she is busy.”
“Teacher?”
Don’t your parents usually tell you not to follow strangers?
Here, the teacher planted in her head not to bother the busy saintess.
“No, these kids are talking about the teacher at the orphanage.”
“Oh, that’s what it was.”
“This is the orphanage I was in when I was young. These children are also from that orphanage.”
“Smart, I felt like a really well-bred kid.”
“Unsurprisingly, our orphanage teaches such things from an early age. In addition, orphans can learn education at schools supported by the church.”
Raise orphans to be worthy of children with parents and let them advance into society
Stella says that as a priest, it is the church’s duty to open the way to serve its followers and God.
She was a holy, holy woman herself.
“Who is the older brother next to you?”
“Who is your brother?”
As she admires Stella’s holy figure, a girl clings to her leg.
She says that the saintess is busy, so she seems to be interested in me, who seems to be free this time.
And the boy is staring at me with a sad expression
It really can’t be a polar opposite.
“He is my husband.”
Stella proudly introduces me as her husband.
My face suddenly heated up and my heart started pounding.
Is this it?
I almost fell in love with someone I already loved.
“Really?!”
“Sure, when have I ever lied?”
“No!”
The child who always clings to my leg and smiles brightly.
The saintess, Stella, is in really good shape.
Looking at the bright eyes, the saying that young children’s eyes are spotlessly clear is true.
Are all children in this world like this?
For a moment, out of habit, my hand almost went to the child’s head.
I barely covered my hand and let out a sigh of relief.
Trying to stroke the head of a parentless girl in front of her wife?
What common sense is that?
“It’s okay, these kids love having their hair stroked.”
“Yes? Guess…Is it okay…?”
“Look, he’s sticking his head out to be petted.”
Looking at it now, the girl was clinging to me, urging me to pet her.
It seems that she intends to enjoy it with her eyes closed.
“That…Then…”
I even got permission, but not stroking it
It’s rather disrespectful.
Gently put her hand on the girl’s head and stroked it.
“hehehe.”
“Whew…”
She smiled broadly as if she was satisfied, then ran to the boy with a crackling sound.
She then took her hand and ran out of her.
We get along well.
“Then, shall we finish the bill and go to dinner soon?”
“I’m looking forward to it. I skipped lunch today to eat with Stella.”
“That…Don’t do that! Seobang-nim is so weak that even if you eat more than the others, it’s not enough…”
She wanted to express that she had waited that long, but did Stella accept it differently?
He got a little angry and started to yell at me.
I heard that you have to eat a full meal every day and drink two glasses of milk a day.
I am thinking of my health.
Ah…
This is married life…
A life in which someone cares even if I don’t care about my health.
It’s so good.
***
After calculating all the items
Me and Stella headed to a restaurant run by a lady who lamented that the pope was less frequented when we entered the village earlier.
From what I’ve heard, it’s just a regular village restaurant.
It is said that the Pope and Cardinals, as well as Saint Stella, frequent this shop.
Not only that, but the residents living in the village
It seems to have a good reputation as a place to eat once a week.
“It’s delicious…”
“Pour some sauce on top of the potatoes and enjoy.”
My aunt recommended it as a very delicious way to eat potatoes.
I wanted to give it a try, so I picked up a very small kettle filled with sauce.
Divide the potato in half, pour the sauce on one side and mix lightly.
I remembered it as a fork.
And straight to the mouth.
“Demi-glace sauce…”
“How about our homemade sauce?”
“It’s so delicious that I want to buy it separately and eat it.”
Why did the pope and the cardinals come down to this village?
This is the part where you can tell if you have become a regular at this restaurant.
The menu is a very typical home-cooked dish of the denomination.
A salad made with boiled sausage or mashed potatoes and eggs sprinkled with salt and pepper to add flavor.
Or serve grilled pork trotters or grilled fish dishes.
The price of food is also very cheap, about 4 iron coins (about 4,000 won).
However, the taste is unmatched.
Wouldn’t it be possible to taste this taste only at local French restaurants?
“You can really feel the original taste of the ingredients…”
“How is it, Mr. Seo? What is the taste of a restaurant that some people say they haven’t eaten at, but no one has ever eaten at least once?”
“Awesome… It’s a place I definitely want to come to at least once a week.”
“Actually, there are people who drop out during roll call at the dormitory, right? Most of them eat here and are late.”
Suddenly, the senior priests who came in late yesterday and slept in front of the dormitory began to understand.
If you can enjoy this much food, you can sleep on the cold floor for a day.
