Chapter 42: The Maid and Kazuma

Sector also played like others.

Because he has no money, I gave him an allowance...

And with this, there is only one more slave to buy in the name of "matchmaking."

I introduce Kazuma's partner, and that's the end of it.

Kazuma is my brother and father.

Besides, Kazuma gave Haruka to me out of the goodness of his heart.

I can't help but think so.

Cause I've always looked at him with envy... and I can't help but think he gave her to me.

* * *

I know what kind of slave Kazuma wants.

A 'maid.'

"Kazuma-niisan is the last... is what you want, just as you asked me before?"

"Yeah, can you do that for me?"

"But I want to ask you something..."

"It's about Haruka, isn't it?"

"Is Kazuma-niisan really..."

"Don't say anymore... she's happier with you than she is with me, Ceres... so I gave her up. And as you know, I'm a cooking fool... and when I get good ingredients, I never leave the kitchen. I've been doing this since we were newlyweds... and all we've had is one daughter, and that's all I'm a selfish man. People say we're lovebirds, but that's just a result of Haruka putting me first instead of doing what she wanted to do."

"But..."

"Hey, you know how Haruka always beats up on you, right, Ceres? She doesn't hit me or anyone else... it's an expression of love... Ceres, you have been special to Haruka since you were a child... she's happier being with you than with me... and that's the best."

For Kazuma, the number one thing was cooking... and Haruka was probably number two.

Therefore... he knew it himself... so he did this.

That's what he's saying.

* * *

"Unlike before, this slave is quite ordinary... a maid who likes to cook... Hahaha, this is a classic..." said Orcman.

What Kazuma needs is someone who will walk the same path.

Nobody like that existed in the village.

That's why he married Haruka.

Probably, Haruka is only an ordinary cook too.

"Nice to meet you, I'm Mary."

As one would expect from a noble maid, her manners are flawless, even if her main job is cooking.

"Ceres, I like her looks... but... is she all right?"

"That's not a problem. Mary was in charge of cooking at a noble's house and was praised by the head chef... so she can help Kazuma-niisan, and I think you will have a good time talking about cooking with each other."

"Well, that's good to know, and Mary-san...? I like cooking, and I think about cooking all the time... If you take cooking away from me, there would be nothing left... Is that all right with you?"

"I've spent most of my life doing nothing but cooking... and that's all I can do... is that okay with you?"

"That's my ideal, thank you."

"Yes."

Now everyone has an ideal slave.

In a way, it is a thank you, and in a way, it is a little payback to Zect and the others.

* * *

I chose the ideal slave because Kazuma really took care of me.

Only one thing is left to be done in the future.

It is necessary for a married couple to be close to each other.

'It's bad that I let Haruka go along with my selfishness' is a kindness of Kuzuma and a big mistake, I think.

I think Haruka was betting on Kazuma.

A relationship between a man and a woman can only exist if one of them is the one who supports the other.

If one person pursues his/her dream, the other person has to be the one who supports him/her. Otherwise, they can't be together.

I think it is similar to the relationship between a hero and a saint.

The hero fights, and when he is wounded, the saint heals him.

If there are two healers, they cannot fight, and if there are two fighters, their wounds would be fatal.

So, Kazuma and Haruka should have been an ideal couple.

But Kazuma wanted a 'companion' to walk the same path.

Maybe they will have a hard time in the future.

There is no one to support them in cleaning, washing, and so on.

Well, either one of them could break down or hire a third person.

And with this, I make Kazuma understand the importance of Haruka.

Then, when I tell this to Shizuko and the others, there will probably be no problem.
