Extra: The Church in Our Village (2)

And so, with the prayer’s effect on us, we hunted an iron golem in safety .
As a result of exchanging it to the guild and splitting it three ways, my wallet got pretty fat .

“It’s seriously better when we pray!”
“I can play around for a while now~”
“Still gotta work the fields though . ”

For me, field work is my life’s work . If I had to choose between that and being an adventurer, I’d choose the field . I’m super fortunate that I can have both at once—now I just wish I could have a bride .

“So, wanna go pray at the church?”
“Yeahhh, us getting that iron golem was thanks to Beddhism’s help after all . ”
“Zun, you’re just saying that because you wanna see Suira-san, aren’t ya?”
“What’re you on about, Doko! I just wanna pat Michiru-chan’s head!”
“You lolicon . ”

Like that, we headed to the church .
As for the time, it was in the evening . It closes early since we all sleep at night, but it should still be open now .

“Ah, welcome~?”

The small sister, Michiru-chan greeted us .
Come to think of it, her child sister outfit has a slit in the skirt too… and I heard that the Beddhism sister outfits were all prepared by the village chief… yep . Well, yeah . Guess that’s that, then .
Going that far, honestly, I think there’s some respect to be had .

Zun patted Michiru-chan’s head as he said he would and handed her an eggplant he was holding on to . Zun, just when did you pick that up…?

“Yaaay~, eggplant~!”

Michiru-chan rubbed her cheek all over the eggplant—what’s this feeling? It feels like I’m witnessing something wrong .

Passing our offerings to Michiru-chan, we did the informal prayer .
… It feels like giving pocket money to a niece . Calming .

“Well now we’re gonna head off to the bar for a drink, you comin’ too Robou?”
“Nah, I’m gonna pray a bit more . I want to read a book . ”
“Sure, suit yourself . We’re off then . ”

Saying that, I broke off from Zun and Doko . They’re a great pair I can talk to easily .
I borrowed a book related to agriculture from the bookshelf and sat back into a chair . I can’t read much since reading’s so difficult, but as an adventurer, I can manage enough to figure out what’s on a commission slip .
Moreover, this [Translated Edition: Ichika] book has lots of memos written by an adventurer, so it’s easy to read .
… What’s this? Fertilizer, flour made from grinding shells, into the field… heeh, shell powder can be used as a fertilizer? So it’s not just goblins? Maybe I’ll try it out with the next merchant heading to Pavuera?

I continued reading the book . It was very good… but I guess the day’s fatigue was building up, since I started dozing and—

—ah! I wound up falling asleep .
I hurriedly used [Cleanup] on the book and desk I drooled a bit on to . I don’t know if it was made of anything special, but the book cleaned up very nicely… that was dangerous, there’s no way I could pay to replace the book .
With that, a cloth fell down . It looks like one got put on me .

“You were praying zealously, Robou-san . ”

Suira-san stood next to me with a gentle smile .

“… Umm, Suira-san, this cloth, did you…?”
“Yes, I put it on you so that you wouldn’t catch a cold… You have an adorable sleeping face . ”

She saw my sleeping face?


I didn’t think much of my party members seeing my sleeping face, but just thinking about Suira-san seeing it is a bit embarrassing .

The sun had already set, it was night out . It was a time that the church should have already closed .

“Sorry for causing you trouble this late . ”
“No, nothing of the sort! If you’d like, you could continue sleeping a little longer?”

… Suira-san smiled, looking almost… disappointed?
Suddenly, I was reminded of a child caught red handed eating a treat—no, what am I thinking? It’s gotta be my imagination . But there’s no way Suira-san would do something like that, right?

“—Come to think of it, did you know that this church has a private room?”
“A private… room?”

When I asked back, Suira-san smiled gently .

“Yes, a place for Beddhists to calm down and pray one by one—ah, of course since it’s Beddhism praying, that means to have a nice long rest, but—it’s a room like an inn room . There’s even a key to lock it from the inside, of course . ”

Suira-san smiled .
Then, she put her face close to my ear as though to whisper . My ear suddenly felt ticklish and my mind quickly grew comforted and tired . I wonder if this is that ear-happiness thing?1

“If—if you provide two silver coins as an offering, you could even do a special prayer in the private room that uses two people…?”
“Wha—… t-two silver coins, s-special!? With two people!?”
“Fufufu, what will you do? You’ve been praying so… passionately, yes?”

The moment she said passionately—I gulped back my saliva .

Suira-san smiled coquettishly . Corrupted—with a feeling entirely unbecoming of her sister outfit .
And inside my wallet… it’s there! I nodded right away .

“This way, then…”

Handed her the silver coins, I was led over to the private room with her soft hand pulling me .
Once there, I saw a small bed laid out . It was a room meant entirely to sleep in .

There, I—

—slept on Suira-san’s lap .

Hmm? Wait, what? I mean, it’s definitely different from what I’d expected, but this is good . Rather, it’s great . Man, it’d actually be a bit ridiculous if I’d be able to do what I wanted to do with Suira-san for just two silver, hahaha . Hah…

“You can fall asleep whenever you wish . I will leave the room midway, but I will take care to not disturb your prayer . ”
“O-Okay . ”

She stroked my hair gently . Aah, this feels so good… wait, she smells so good, crap . Suira-san really smells super good—is there an incense specifically meant for Beddhism or something?

“Close your eyes, relax your body… that’s a good boy . Now, slowly, breathe deeply—I’m here, don’t worry…”
“—…”

Listening to Suira-san talk, I grew ever more tired .
I slept soundly until morning .
As expected, Suira-san wasn’t there when I woke in the morning, but—

—It might’ve been because I rested on her lap, but what I dreamed about doing with Suira-san is a secret .
… It’s also a secret that I used [Cleanup] on myself when I woke up… Might’ve been the first time I wet the bed since I was a child .

At any rate, I, having slept all night, came across Suira cleaning when I walked out of the room .

“Oh, Robou-san . Thanks for the treat last night—-I mean, you prayed zealously last night . How do you feel? Well?”
“Yeah, I feel great, thanks . Nahaha . ”
“That’s all that matters . ”

Suira-san smiled .

“Should I keep last night a secret?”
“Well, no, but it would be best to keep to only telling those you can trust . However, there is a limitation on the number of private rooms we have, so we may not have one open, and sisters hold the power of refusing anyone they deem unreasonable . ”
“I see…”
“… By the way, if you want to pray another night, next time will be a three silver coin co-sleeping course—”
“I’ll come again!”

I grabbed Suira-san by the hand and almost yelled it .
Suira looked at my face, her eyes looking bashful as they gazed into mine .
She then grasped my hands back and opened her mouth .

“… It’s a promise, right? You’ll definitely be here again…?”

SO CUTE, I’m falling in love .

Guess I’ll tell Zun and Doko about it for now . They’re probably dead drunk in the bar around now .

“Gotta go check on my field first though!”

With that, I headed to my field .
