OWMB 84 – Housekeeper

After I finished the synthesis, it was time for dinner.

When I arrived at the mansion a little sweaty, I decided to join the others in the living room.

[Hey, Caro! What’s going on?]

Aphrodite’s angry cries echoed down the hall.

[I’m hungry, but I can’t be satisfied with just this.]

Aphrodite’s argument was actually correct.

Carolina always prepared pretty delicious dishes, but today’s dish was mostly leftovers from yesterday and had less flavor.

Although Aphrodite had nothing to complain about, since she spent all day sleeping on the ball.

[Actually, I’d like to know why today’s dinner seems a bit sparse.]

[… I’m sorry, I’m sorry about that, but it’s hard to make time with all my homework.]

Carolina is not doing anything wrong if you think about it.

The truth is quite terrible that Carolina, who is working with us on our adventures, returns to the mansion and has to work.

This is wrong.

If this continues, the burden will exceed Carolina.

If Carolina gets overworked, our group will surely be destroyed.

[Hey, why don’t you give the kitchen job to Yuuko?]

[Well, that’s because…]

[It would be quite difficult, because a maid’s apprentice like Yuuko wasn’t even allowed into the kitchen before.]

Is that the case?

In the place where they worked before, Carolina was the service manager, while Yuuko seemed just to work in the organization.

Even so, not even being able to enter the kitchen… They really were in a very hard place of work.

[What about Sheryl?]

[Sorry, but… Even though I can do blacksmithing work, I’m not really good at housework.]

[Is that so?]

I guess I expected that.

A person who has always been in a closed environment, focused on his own hobby, doesn’t have the image of someone who is good at domestic affairs.

[No one in this group, besides Carolina, can cook.]

This is a serious matter.

How can this be?

[Wait a bit, Souta! Why didn’t you ask me? Don’t you think I could be a good cook?]

[Have you cooked before?]

[Naturally not! The goddess of beauty doesn’t need skills such as cooking!]

[Yeah, that’s why I didn’t ask you.]

Thank you for such an obvious answer!

Ignoring Aphrodite for the moment, we proceeded with the discussion.

[So… why don’t we hire someone?]

They mean a housekeeper.

Fortunately, we have over 10 million in money thanks to the mineral collection quest.

We have enough money for this; maybe we can hire someone to do the housework.

[It could be a risk for us. There are many things we have to keep secret and inviting strangers could cause everything to come out.]

[… Certainly… It’s difficult to find reliable people.]

[How about buying a slave?]

[Huh?]

Huh? What? What’s wrong?

Do I hear a bad idea?

Please give it up immediately!

[It can be surprisingly useful, plus there would be no risk of our information leaking out.]

[Surely, if it’s a slave, we’ll be able to reduce the risk. And if they can help with the cleanup, it would be a great help to me.]

I can’t find a reason to object.

Why didn’t I think of that before?

Buying a slave in this different world might be a good idea!

My goal in this world is to get beautiful girls of different races and take them to my world.

If I use the slave system well, it must be a shortcut to achieve my goal. After hearing Yuuko’s idea about buying slaves, I spent the whole night with a strong sense of excitement.
