Today, I’m wearing a shirt and pants from Japan, not the servant clothing I have worn every day recently.
I finished dressing up in the morning, and then I locked gazes with a girl as I was stretching my back.
「 Daiki-sama, take care. I’ll let everyone know that we’re still here 」
「 Yeah, I’ll take care of it. I’ll be sure to tell Gilbert-san too 」
My cute Euphy’s sending me off with a smile.
I pat her golden hair, and then Nia, wearing her maid outfit, also hugged me.
「 Daiki-nii, don’t forget my Shaushau, okay? 」
「 Of course. I’ll go buy them in bulk 」
「 Yes! You have to! If you forget I’ll cry! 」
「 You’ll cry? You still have some left, don’t you? 」
「 Those will only last a few days! So make sure to buy them 」
「 You’re too desperate 」
Nia kept repeating”You have to” while hugging me intensely.
She’s so enthusiastic about food, just how much does she love sausages?
Even if I could buy it with my money, she’s too obsessed.
I check my schedule in my head while being amazed by Nia’s cuteness.
Euphy asked me to send a message to the Blaureite territory.
Since I’ve been away for almost three weeks, I decided to go there and see how things are going.
I’d like to take Euphy and Nia with me but my teleport skill has cooldown on each use so it’s much easier for me to move on my own.
Besides, I’d like them to keep Silka-chan company.
But first, I have to return to Japan.
The first reason is that today is when the 100-yen shop items I purchased before will arrive.
Earlier, when I purchased some products in Japan, I wanted to ask Ryo to receive the stuff, but when I went to the other house, Mirai got kidnapped so I forgot to ask.
And so, I decided to take it directly by shopping.
I get to check the time in Japan on my phone even when I’m in this world.
Well then, let’s get teleporting right away.
Perhaps because I’m getting used to the skill that I can pinpoint the transfer range in my head even if it’s movement between worlds.
My vision instantly shifted from the scene where I was looking at two beautiful girls to a warehouse with a dimly lit high ceiling.
「 Okay, first, check my phone. 」
After taking my phone out of my magic bag, I get notified of emails and messages as soon as the network is connected.
The only mail I checked was regarding the product, so after I confirmed that it had been shipped successfully, the next step was to open my messenger app while moving to the living room.
I sat on the sofa, checked on the messages, and since I received some messages from friends, I replied to them first.
Mostly they’re invitations for dinner, but I’ll reply that I don’t have free time yet.
We’ve known each other for so long so there’s no problem getting a little alienated.
The next thing is checking on the message from my aunt, the woman who raised me.
I’ve been missing for almost three months since being summoned to the other world, so she contacted me again to check if I was doing well.
「 Oh, I have to show up one of these days. She got worried that she couldn’t get in touch with me again… 」
Before I was summoned, I usually reply within the same day, so when I left it alone for three days, she kept messaging repeatedly.
She seemed quite worried, so I decided to check on her to reassure her.
While at it, I should bring Euphy and Nia with me.
But, it’s a little difficult to introduce them.
Even I would have a hard time replying if someone asked what’s my relationship with the two.
Even if I introduce them, it’ll be after a few years at the earliest.
But, if we put it later, I’ll likely have kids.
I wonder if that’s a future that Euphy’s considering.
Oh well, I’ll just cross the bridge when that happens.
「 Err, I’ll go back home next time 」
I put myself together and sent a message, which got read immediately and I received a reply.
As usual, she’s sending a lot of emoji.
But, she’s happy to see that I have no issues.
I also replied to other messages, like from people from the company I quit, I replied appropriately and thought about what I had to say to the person sending me the most messages.
Hmm…
Hey, I’m back in Japan.
I have time today, how about we have dinner–
As I was writing, I thought about the words, then I suddenly received a call…
「 Oh, I was just about to send a message— 」
『 Kotori-san, if you’re back contact me right away! 』
A voice as loud as her father’s came out of my smartphone.
「 I was just writing my reply… 」
『 It’s been thirty minutes since you’ve read it! I’ve been waiting since I saw it! 』
「 I can’t help it. I also had other people I had to respond to 」
『 Still, I wish you reply to me sooner 』
「 Sorry. I want to take it slow with you so I put it on hold. I didn’t mean to ignore you. Rather, you’re special so I put it to last 」
『 …I see. That’s great 』
When I told Mirai that she was special, her momentum calmed down.
I feel like she’s too angry, but, I guess that selfishness is cute.
On the other hand, it’s adorable that she’s acting like a girlfriend.
『 Kotori-san, did you bring Euphy-chan and Nia-chan with you? 』
「 They’re not here. I’m alone 」
『 I see. It’s unfortunate that I can’t meet the two, but that also means I don’t have to hold back, right? Do you have any plans today? 』
「 I’m going to shop in the morning and wait for the delivery in the afternoon. I plan to go back after receiving it 」
『 Eeeh? Are you returning soon? Then I’m going now. Oh, you’re shopping outside, right? Come pick me up then Kotori-san. I’ll prepare 』
「 You already set it in stone. Not that I mind 」
Mirai forcibly made the plans.
It’s a good thing that I planned to finish shopping by morning, I guess?
It’s much more fun shopping with a girl than doing it alone.
I ended the call, went out of the living room with the car keys, and boarded the SUV.
I hear that most people who drive cars of this manufacturer are weirdos, but it’s a nice ride.
After a ten-minute drive, I arrived in front of a three-story building with walls too high to be a single house.
Hmm, it doesn’t feel normal at a glance.
If this were an upscale residential area, the robust security wouldn’t be so strange, but when it’s in a downtown residential area, it stands out a lot.
It’s not so common to have such a heavy iron gate.
I parked in front of the building and called Mirai, then the iron gate began to open.
Seems like I have to go in.
Honestly, I thought she’d come out and get into the car, but considering Mirai, it might be bad if she goes out?
I drove the car inside, and then I Mirai wearing a branded T-shirt, and a denim skirt. Fitting for her age, yet strangely erotic.
「 Where’s our first stop? 」
「 Just asking first, did your father give permission? 」
「 Father didn’t go to Kyushu today. So he didn’t say anything. And I’m safe if I’m with Kotori-san so he won’t get angry 」
「 So you don’t have his permission. I feel like he’ll scold me for this 」
Several large people are watching, but they’re not stopping me so it should be fine
Ryou’s also with the gallery, and he puts his hand on his knees and lowers his head.
Well, let’s just deal with it when it happens.
I drove off the car with Mirai in it and she smiled at me.
「 So, what are we shopping for? 」
「 Just some groceries 」
「 Really, I thought that you were going to buy some stuff to sell there? 」
「 That’s for next time. For today, I’m buying some foodstuff
「 Hmm. Then, there’s a big supermarket near the station at the river, right? Let’s go there 」
「 Oh, that place? Good one 」
Mirai was at the office, but since the place we live is near each other, I can tell what she meant by such a short line.
Driving for a while, I arrived at a large supermarket with a pigeon mark, which was several blocks away from the station where we lived.
I put two baskets in a cart and threw in the stuff I needed.
Most of the stuff I bought was the sausages that Nia kept reminding me not to forget, and the dried fish Euphy told me not to forget, but before that, I bought a lot of drinks and sweets.
Oh, I shouldn’t forget to buy snacks for alcohol.
Next to me buying some fish is Mirai, wearing sunglasses, reaching out on the shelf putting more and more products into the basket without saying anything.
Especially since she came from the confectionery corner, this will depend on the pay.
「 Do you know how to hold back? 」
「 What? I didn’t pick anything too expensive you know. I was thinking about having some snacks while studying, should I not? 」
「 Get as much as you want then. I heard that Ramune helps in studying. How about you buy a box of those? 」
「 Fufu. See? I knew you’d say that 」
Why do you sound like you know me well?
She’s getting a little cheeky with her tone but isn’t that just cute.
We’re at our late stage in shopping and after buying more foodstuff for Euphy and Nia, Mirai was looking at the meat pack a little further away.
I approached her and her eyes were glued to the meat as she talked.
「 Kotori-san, what do you want for lunch? Meat, fish? Or this thing 」
「 You’re cooking? YOu sure? 」
「 Hey, that sounded rude! I can cook you know. When Mom goes home late, I cook for myself and for Mom, so I know the broad strokes.
Speaking of which, Mirai lived with her mom until she was summoned to the other world.
Looking at her relationship with the boss, she seems to meet regularly, but the two are basically living by themselves.
「 My bad. Mirai’s surprisingly a home girl. Hmm, how about I ask for the classic omelet? 」
「 Why are you surprised? That aside. Omurice? I got this 」
A girl is cooking me an omurice.
Furthermore, it’s a cute JK cooking.
No matter how bad it is, I’m confident I’ll eat it all.
But, looking at her chosen ingredients without hesitation, I don’t have to worry.
She’s doing it like it’s a habit.
