As I looked up at the boy brushing his teeth while watching me in the mirror, I started to whine about how stupid I was.
Naturally, everyone around me, whether it was my mom or my dad, had healthy teeth for a reason, the strange thing was that I didn't realize it. When I never saw my mom brushing her teeth, I was prejudiced and thought that there was no toothbrush in this world, but I was wrong.
Somewhere high up in the bathroom where I couldn't see it, there was the toothbrush my mom used and her handmade toothpaste. Not as sweet as in my previous life, but still usable. Without any expectation to complete the system's task, when I told my mother about cleaning my teeth, she handed me her toothbrush without hesitation and showed me how a person brushes their teeth.
In short, for the last 3 days, I had been failing to perform a repeated task in vain. As I promised myself that I would not be so affected by my prejudices in the future, I heard my mother's voice
"Yuto-chan, if you've finished your preparations, come here and let's put some clothes on you."
Speaking of which, no matter how much I insisted, I still couldn't convince my mom not to take me to the annual checkup. Now that I can talk, I'm going to try different ways to stop my mother from drinking the sleeping pills.
"I'm almost ready, please wait for me"
"As you wish, my sweet!"
Although I had some plans to protect my mother's chastity from the dirty hands of the pharmacist witch, my first choice was still not to go there at all, and I was ready to do anything that had to be done.
So let's start the first attempt to accomplish the task of protecting mom from the perverted witch.
--------
Elena was on her way to the pharmacist's office to check the fit of the clothes she had chosen for her son when she heard a loud noise and turned her head toward the bathroom door.
When Elena saw her son running out of the bathroom with her used underwear over his head, she reacted after a brief shock and began to chase him as he ran towards the outer door.
"Hey Yuto! Will you stop being bad, please! I'm starting to get angry "
"I refuse, Mother. I am already healthy enough. If you think I am unhealthy, come and catch your unhealthy son"
-----------
Even if I said this, I was already aware that I had a physical strength that surpassed that of ordinary people. Even if I could hardly move, probably due to illness, I could easily run away from my mother, whose back was aching when she ran because of her huge breasts.
Whatever. Even if my mother's anger reaches the limit, I won't go for a physical examination. I'll just let her beat me up at the end of the day.
When I stepped out of the front door of the house and came across our own garden, I turned around and started running around the house. Naturally, I didn't want to go too far away from our house and show my mother's underwear to our neighbors.
As we continued to run around in our big garden, I thought that one of the best things about this world is that no matter how poor you are, as long as you are healthy, you can have a detached house with a big garden.
Like almost all the people in our village, our house was built with our own hands. And in this world, unless you lived in a big city, you didn't need anyone's permission to build a house.
Would this have happened in my previous world? Even if I wanted to go and build a house in the Amazon jungle, the government officials would see the house I was building on satellite imagery and ticket me because the land didn't belong to me.
As soon as I turned the corner of the house and looked at the few meters of distance between me and my mother, who was gasping for breath and holding her knees, I realized that I was too caught up in my thoughts. I reacted quickly and with a few maneuvers I passed by my mother and continued running.
"Boo-hoo boo-hoo"
What was that sound?
I turned back and saw my mom still standing in the same place, looking at me with tears in her eyes.
What's that look? Full of regret... It's the first time I've seen my mom cry. Ohh it feels bad...
"What happened?"
I realize my throat hurts as I nervously ask my mother what happened, but it doesn't matter to me right now.
"I... I beg you, stop being like this. What should I do if you have a serious illness? Please... my sweet boy"
She's really crying... I really have a strange feeling in my chest, like ants walking around in my heart. I want to cry too. I think I have to find another way to protect my mom.
"I'll go there if it means that much to you, but I have a favor to ask in return."
"I'll do whatever my dear son wants"
"When we go to Grandma Pharmacist, if I ask you for something, you must do it without hesitation, just like I did last year. Okay?"
"Hahaha. It's a deal."
Huh? Is she laughing????
Ahhhhh! How can a person like me be so easily fooled. I'll take note of this defeat and take revenge on you in the future, woman.
"Weren't you crying just now. Why are you laughing all of a sudden?
My mother answered by patting my head and giving me a tongue and telling me that she was very happy that I listened to her. Of course, while she was patting my head, I also noticed that she secretly took her underwear off my head
-------
After looking for a while at the wooden door, which evoked mixed feelings in me as it stood in front of me, I hesitantly reached out my tiny hand and punched the fucking door.
After a short wait of just a few seconds, the door creaked open and I was greeted by the image of an old woman who brought back memories.
I already knew that even though she looked old on the outside, she made herself look old with the help of makeup or a spell or something.
"Elena, have you finally come to see me, my girl. These old bones have been wanting to see you for a long time. Ever since your child was born, you've never come to see me."
"Ahaha, I'm sorry, but taking care of a child is harder than I imagined."
Is taking care of a child harder than you imagined? Hahaha... If I was a real baby, I'd be crying and wetting myself all day long or screaming because you left me for no reason etc.
"I know, I know. At one time, I had children of my own. It's definitely as hard as you say."
What a fake manner of speaking. Giving open-ended answers without giving any information and being as affirming as possible... Hmm, she's definitely lying.
As an experienced liar, although I am not very good at lying, I am sure I could write a book on the techniques of lying. It's her foolishness to use such a simple lying technique in front of me.
