64 – Ma, why does it taste like this…… ?

Rail tilted her head at Iris’s unexpected question.

I couldn’t understand why she would ask such a question when she was about to get seriously hurt, but it was a very important question to Iris.

She shook her head as she watched Iris stare at herself with her quivering eyes.

‘I’m glad… ….’

Iris let out a deep sigh of relief.

Carefully descending from her arms, Iris bowed her head to Rails.

“Thank you for saving me.”

“No. Rather, I am sorry for making you do something dangerous.”

Rail seemed to be sincerely sorry for Iris, and bowed down to apologize to Iris.

Seeing that, Iris hurriedly shook her hands.

“Don’t apologize! I did this because I wanted to help, but the Marquis doesn’t need to apologize!”

She looked at Iris, who was uncomfortable, and Rail finally lifted her lower back.

Then she put her hand towards the cement can she was holding earlier.

Raising her mana, Rail used lightweight magic toward the barrel.

Then she lightly lifts the barrel she was barely carrying with both hands with one hand.

“Huh?”

Iris is surprised to see the lightly lifted rail. Rail looked at her like that and said.

“I will carry it, so the saintess is resting in her room for a while.”

“Oh, no. I can do it too!”

“The saintess was almost seriously injured once. The knights also worry that the saintess will be hurt again. So, she is resting in her room cooling off her sweat.”

At the words of Rail, Iris looked around.

She stops what everyone else is doing and she looks at the rails and herself.

As he said, everyone seemed worried that Iris would get hurt again.

In this situation, even if she doesn’t make mistakes, other people’s eyes may be drawn to her, and the quality of her work may deteriorate.

“Okay… ….”

Realizing that she was getting in the way of her work after all, Iris nodded her head.

But that didn’t mean she would stop helping her.

“In return, I will make the Marquis’s dinner myself!”

“It is not necessary for the saintess to make it… ….”

Rail, who tried to refuse Iris’s meal, couldn’t continue her words when he saw Iris looking at him like a puppy that had been hit by rainwater.

And finally,

“Okay. Instead, don’t do anything else dangerous.”

“Yes!”

With Rail’s permission, Iris smiled at how happy she was and moved her feet into her dining room.

Kung.

When Iris moved to the restaurant, her drivers were able to put her mind at ease and concentrate on their work.

Rail again walked towards the articles carrying the goods with difficulty.

And I used lightweight magic at the items piled up in the warehouse.

“She used lightweight magic, so it shouldn’t be too heavy.”

“Thank you. Marquis.”

Looking at the much lighter barrel, the knights thanked Rail.

Received their greetings and before returning to the place where the work was in progress, Rail took out cold drinks from the warehouse.

“Everyone, take a break and start working. If you continue without a break, you may collapse from exhaustion in the middle.”

While saying that, Rail used his telekinesis magic to pass drinks to each of the knights.

He gave extra drinks to those who thought one drink wouldn’t be enough.

“Thank you!”

“Have a good drink!”

I’m sorry for breaking expensive items, but I was truly moved by the drivers who kindly gave me drinks.

‘I misunderstood such a kind person!’

‘As expected, rumors can’t be trusted.’

And it served as an opportunity to change the perception of those who had heard bad rumors about rails through the articles around them.

“I will start working again soon.”

“Yes!”

The short break was over, but the knights were not sorry.

And with more strength than before, I started to repair the mansion quickly.

The repair, which seemed to be done so close to midnight, was completed sooner than expected.

“Thank you for your hard work. Marquis.”

“Thanks for your hard work!”

“Yes. Everyone worked hard.”

I went straight to the restaurant without washing my feet as if I was hungry from working on the knights from morning to evening.

Rail also wanted to go to the cafeteria immediately and have a meal with the drivers, but it was unreasonable to see Rail doing more boat activities than others.

So, the rail, which had no choice but to pass by the dining room, went straight to the bathroom.

*

‘When will the Marquis come?’

Iris waited for Rail, who had not yet arrived at the cafeteria, as she watched the knights hurriedly eat their meal as they finished the work earlier than expected.

I bet you forgot my promise, right?

Iris, who has never cooked before, made her first dish for Rail.

She burned everything at first because she didn’t know how to cook it, but thanks to Luna’s help, she succeeded in making it look quite believable.

“Is today the last day? It’s a pity that you have to go back to the temple already.”

“That’s right. Compared to the temple, the meal and the bedroom are on a different level.”

And her knights helped repair the mansion all day long, but Luna seemed to have no desire to return to the temple, as if she liked the food she made and the comfortable bedroom in the mansion.

It was not polite for the saint Iris to speak and act to disparage her temple in front of her, but she also thought that the quality of food and bedrooms in her mansion were very good, so she said nothing. It didn’t.

“I ate well.”

In this way, the knights finished their meals one by one, and almost all of the knights left the cafeteria and moved to their rooms.

The only thing left in the room is Iris and the food she cooked.

Iris looked blankly at the door of the restaurant.

‘Perhaps he was tired and went back to his room first.’

Thinking he had forgotten that she had told Rail to cook her own, Iris picked up her plate.

And that was when she moved her foot to throw her food in her trash can in her kitchen.

Kung.

The door to the restaurant opened, she thought no one else would come in.

Jerbug. That buck

With the familiar sound of shoes, Rails with her hair uncurled walked into the dining room.

And after looking around her for a moment, Iris and her eyes met Rail, and headed towards where she was.

Sitting on a chair at her table with her iris on, Rail immediately apologized to her.

“Sorry for the delay. I washed up for a while because I sweated a lot.”

“Oh, no. You can come slowly.”

As Iris said, she looked at Rail’s hair, which was not yet dry.

It seemed that she had finished her shower and had gone to the dining room before her hair was dry, so that she wouldn’t wait.

‘I didn’t even know that and doubted the Marquis… !’

Iris reprimanded herself that she had doubted the rails once again.

“Is this the dish the saintess made?”

“Yes, yes!”

Rail looked at the food Iris made in front of her eyes.

The food she prepared was corn-scented soup and browned bread.

‘The outside looks pretty good.’

Rail nodded as he saw the food, which was much better than expected, and without hesitation raised a spoon and put Iris’s soup into his mouth.

“Gwa, are you okay?”

Iris waited for her rail’s reaction with a tense face.

“… ….”

But instead of answering, Rail picked up the bread next to him and put it in his mouth.

Well well. Gulp.

Rail passed the bread down his esophagus and once again took up the spoon and drank the soup.

And Rail, who continued to eat the bread and soup without a word, ate all of the food Iris made.

“Overall, it was a bit salty, but delicious. Holy Maiden.”

“Ah.”

The word “Slightly salty” Pierced her heart, but seeing as she ate the whole thing, it meant that the taste itself wasn’t bad.

Iris let out a sigh of relief.

“I’m glad you got hit by her mouth.”

“Thank you for making food for me.”

“Do you have any more dishes you want to eat? If you don’t mind, I’ll make more for you.”

She gained confidence in cooking, so Iris wanted to cook another dish for Rail.

“Sorry, I have a lot of work to do in my room, but I don’t think I can afford a meal.”

“No. It can’t be helped that the Marquis has a lot of work to do.”

Unfortunately, for Rail, she has a lot of work to do, Iris promised to cook next time.

Reil stood up to return to her room and turned her head to look at Iris before leaving her dining room.

“Can I go to the saintess’s room at midnight?”

“Oh yes! Or should I go directly to the Marquis’s room?”

“No. There are quite a few rooms, so you might get confused, so I’ll go find it myself.”

“Yes. Then see you at midnight.”

Rail nodded at Iris’s words and left her restaurant.

Kung.

The dining room door closed and Iris looked at her empty plate.

“This is the first dish I made, and I’m glad you liked it. Lol.”

Looking at the cleanly emptied dishes, Iris smiled and went to her kitchen to wash the dishes.

Shuaaa-

Turning on her water hose and starting to wash her dishes with her dish soap, Iris looked at the pot she used earlier as she was making food. She

She and she reached out to wash her pot like a dish.

‘Huh? There’s a little left.’

There was some leftover soup in her pot.

And half a piece of bread was left in the oven next to it.

‘Come to think of it, I didn’t taste it.’

She paid the utmost attention to her appearance and did not taste the liver of the food herself.

Thinking it was too much of a waste to throw away, Iris stopped washing her dishes and put her leftover soup into her mouth.

“…… !”

After taking a bite of the soup, Iris’ expression greatly distorted.

“Eh, why does it taste like this…… ?”

It’s not a little salty, but it tastes as salty as drinking seawater.

Furthermore, the flour in the soup hadn’t completely melted, and the flour clumped together in my mouth.

Iris looked at the soup she made with eyes she couldn’t believe. She

She and she put the bread next to him into her mouth.

“Ugh… ….”

Bread baked to a golden brown color was actually only cooked on the outside, but the inside was not cooked at all, so I could only taste the doughy taste.

She ended up not being able to eat all of her food and threw it all in the trash. Iris gulped down the water.

“Whoa… ….”

Thanks to the water, the food went inside, but I can still feel the salty taste of the food in my mouth.

“How the hell did Marquis eat this… ….”

I was grateful to Rail for making the poor food so delicious, but I couldn’t help but feel more sorry for making him eat this kind of food.
