30. a quiet dinner.

"If you had told me that you would bring an important guest, I would have taken out the tables that they gave me in the restaurant.

- forget that ren, master wanted to see how common people usually live.

I turned my attention to Kiriko who was sitting at the kitchen/dining room table.

"I hope my humble abode is to your liking, sir.

- I know I said that in the academy we are all the same, but outside of it too, ren, I don't want that formality coming from you.

"As you like, now I can ask calmly

"What are you doing here?

- I wanted to know how Kumiko was living these days.

" what do you think?

- as long as you have used the bed you bought together with the beauty utensils.

- eh? I also send utensils-

I ran as fast as I could to Kumiko's side and covered her mouth before she finished her sentence.

"Right now we're going to prepare dinner, if you'll excuse me for a moment I'll be right back.

- I'll help too.

- I also want to help.

" Please no kiriko, they already told me that they left you to boil water and you put detergent in it thinking that you would kill all the germs that way, go to the living room, there is a television, you can watch whatever you want.

As a kiriko walked sheepishly into my room, I turned my attention to both girls.

"How was Kumiko? What happened at his meeting?

- I don't know, when I was going to talk about how I felt more specialized for my work, out of nowhere he began to apologize about how badly he treated me, that he shouldn't have given me only cleaning and kitchen utensils and made me promises to be more open with me and that I will be the same way.

"Hoh, my training worked.

- excuse me.

"kiriko was too much of an idiot, in the daily reports he asked his opinion about situations with girls and whenever he answered badly, he couldn't train that afternoon, it seems that he is not so dense anymore.

-Huh? So that's why you looked sad at lunch? You're very cruel! Apart from that, I love to clean, I don't know why he told you not to talk to me about it.

"Liar!, whenever it was your turn to clean the apartment you wanted to come up with stupid excuses for not cleaning, how the hell is that a day of not moving your hands is celebrated according to the nobles?

-That's it! That's because it's kiriko!

" So say it then, don't come to me with hints!

"So you know, take advantage of it before a girl comes and attracts him, but I doubt it, you're the closest to him.

Kumiko gave me a cute smile and bowed 90 degrees.

-thank you very much for the advice master of him, thanks to you at last I will be able to make him notice me.

"Don't thank me yet, thank me when you're at the altar and I'm selected as the groomsman.

- eh! marriage!?, that's very early!, but it's true, I have to think about it, what color will my dress be or what name will I give my children? I could name it ren, better not, very silly, I'd better put...

As kumiko.exe restarted, I turned my attention to Akane.

"So Akane, what do you think of daggers?

- They served me a lot sensei, I promise to return them tomorrow.

"No need, consider it a graduation present.

- But that's an artifact right?

"Yeah, I got it cheap so don't worry.

- but...

"You know my stubbornness, besides those weapons are not useful for my style, I could use them, but I think you will be able to use them to their fullest capacity.

- Thank you very much, I promise to reward you properly later after things calm down in my house.

"As long as it's money or bacon, I'll receive it with the greatest of honors.

- will not ask that a recommendation be sent to start as a baron?.

"Please no, anything but being a noble, too much work for my liking.

- Really? I thought at first that he would use me as Kumiko to ascend.

"What the hell do you think I am? I think we need to train something new in you.

- Seriously, what?

"Your brain, I think the fight killed some brain cells to suggest he's a noble.

-How cruel! I just wanted to repay his kindness.

"If you want to repay such kindness, help me to eliminate bullying at school, although strangely those who wanted to bully me stopped doing it, they even avoid me.

-there is a rumor that a second-year girl with white hair took care of that, does she know someone like that?

"Not really, since I'm new, I don't know any second-years except the ones from the cooking club.

- Are you going to join a club?

"Of course not, I plan to enjoy my bed late from the next week.

- Aren't you too lazy sensei?

"And I agree with you, now don't call me sensei, it's all over.

- agree ren.

"Perfect, now you should help me prepare the ingredients, in the meantime I will send Kumiko who is about to restart with Kiriko to talk alone and I will help you.

"Oi Kumiko come here.

- huh?

I got close to his ear and told him.

" Take advantage of the fact that we will take here exactly 40 minutes for you to talk to him, and please do not count cleaning issues, that will not work, use other things, you have known him for more than 10 years, use that to talk to him.

After pushing her through the two-way door, I got to work.

When I went out to the new dining room that must be the living room, I saw the 2 lovebirds quiet and blushing.

'perfect, we have progress.

as he put the plates on the table with Akane putting down the salad.

"Alright guys, let's enjoy a nice dinner to celebrate Akane's achievement.

-eh! this was for ku-

Covering a blushing Akane's mouth, I whispered in her ear.

"If I tell her that it's all to celebrate Kumiko's future, those 2 will explode with embarrassment.

Returning to my attention at the table of 4, I sat with Akane next to me with me facing Kiriko and Akane facing Kumiko.

It was 7 o'clock and dinner passed quietly, having food such as baked chicken, salad with bacon, and Cuban rice, among other things.

while we were chatting about simple things about school, kiriko brought a lot to the conversation, I wanted to make the conversation revolve around kiriko, but for some reason, it ended up turning in front of my kitchen.

- Master, I would have seen that cook from the northern gourmet restaurant saying that he came from his land just to treat a fake dish thief and when he was asked about all the ingredients of the dish, Ren gave him a private space and ingredients and told him He said to recreate it since he couldn't, he had to pay Don Julio, and he was kicked out by the guards of the nobles who were there, he would have seen when he screamed while they carried him like a sack of potatoes.

- Kumiko remembers, when they wanted to embarrass Catalina for supposedly charging wrongly by giving a big and wrong price, and Ren came out from the kitchen and changed the price instantly for him and his family from that moment on, they would have seen the look of death that he thought his wife was stingy.

"Please could you not say unnecessary things, the wife the next day apologized to me and said that she would not take her husband there again, so I returned the original price.

Out of nowhere, kiriko let out a big laugh leaving me with the sign? in the face.

- and I thought you were a boring guy for always being alone.

But it's calmer that way

- Don't worry, I understand.

" what do you understand?

- You are a person who is ashamed to start a chat with others, calm down, from now on I will help you.

(don't ask me)

haha...

after that moment the 3 at the table thought.

'how did you come to that conclusion with everything we told you.

I sent a message to Kumiko with a look.

'Take care of fixing his brain, I already taught you everything.

Kumiko, holding her forehead, answered me with her eyes.

-' I will do what I can.

- huh guys?

" Yes?

- something happens?

"nothing kiriko, finish the salad, it's going to be 8:30 and I guess you want to get home to train.

- Thank you very much for the consideration and the food, it was the most delicious.

- thank you very much ren for the food, let me feel paradise when I try the bacon.

" wait a moment.

I went out to the kitchen and came back with a tray full of small pieces of chicken surrounded by a piece of bacon each on a toothpick, it looked like a sandwich.

"Before you go, grab one of these, fresh out of the oven.

as Kiriko slowly approached one.

Akane and Kumiko took one each at maximum speed and when they put them in their mouths, it seemed that they wanted to moan.

While they blushed completely and had ecstatic looks, Kiriko grabbed one too and put it in his mouth, he made an expression similar to theirs.

wanting the first-floor neighbor not to yell at me later for moaning on my floor, I took the 3 of them outside since Akane had a limo waiting for her as well kiriko.

after leaving them, I nodded to their butlers who were looking at me strangely, and went back upstairs.

When I got to my room, I saw a box on my bed with a letter. When I checked the letter, it said it was a gift. Since I wanted to rest, I left it on the floor and went to take a shower and go to bed.
