Chapter 55: The Female Wizard, Kurune
After showing the deer off to the village kids on the way as usual, I parted with Kyle and Loren-san and returned ho.
I took a peek at the field of my house to make sure of sothing after I stored the deer away in the storage house.
There, I saw Flora working on the field just as I expected.
I knew that she wasn’t aware of since her back was facing , so I kept my presence hidden while I approached her from behind.
「Guess whooo~?」
「Woah?! Aldo-san?! Kyaaa~」
When I covered her eyes with my hands, she tried to stand up as she raised her voice in surprise.
But because she had been crouching down for a long ti to work on the fields, her legs did not respond well and she fell backwards.
Since I was also in the sa state of having crouched for a long period of ti, I fell back on my ass when Flora’s weight was suddenly pushed onto .
「Ah! The crops!」
「No worries. There are no crops behind 」
The mont I fell back, Flora let out an angry voice like she was worried about the crops, but everything was fine.
There was only soil behind since the line of crops ended before the end of the ridge.
She sighed in relief as she ca to realize the situation.
「…Mouu, you almost gave a heart attack」
While we’re in the situation of her back leaning on , she looked up at with reddened cheeks.
「Ahaha, my bad. I wanted to see what you look like when you’re surprised」
In actuality, her reaction was funnier than what I expected.
「Not fair, I want to see what you look like when you’re surprised as well」
When I laughed out in a burst as if I rembered sothing, Flora poked at my cheek as she pouted.
Before, when I was working in the field, she tried to sneak up and take by surprise but she had never been successful at it.
She seems to be feeling dissatisfied about it.
Even if I were to just flatter her, she isn’t good at hiding her presence at all when she sneaks up on soone.
Since I’d notice her no matter what, even if I tried to pretend that I didn’t, it would still be hard to act legitimately surprised.
I hope she’ll be satisfied and be behave like a good girl after poking or pulling my cheeks.
「Can we stay like this for a bit since my legs are a little tired?」
「Un, sure」
I slightly moved her upper body up a bit so she can have an easier ti leaning on .
A scent of gentle flowers tickled my nostrils probably because her back was so close to .
Although it was a sll that I like to sniff, the scent makes feel at ease when I sll it.
I instinctively took a deep breath and seed to have tickled Flora.
「I-I’m sweating right now so please don’t take such a big sniff…」
「You don’t sll bad at all. Rather, I’d prefer to sll this nice scent all the ti. But I wonder if my body slls like sweat right now though?」
Oh no, I’m feeling self-conscious after realizing it again. Maybe I’m sweaty right now since I’ve been hunting in the mountains during the day. I even did the bloodletting of the deer, so I might even sll like blood.
「No, I don’t mind because I like the scent of your sweat」
Doesn’t the sweat of a man stink? That kind of worries but from what I can see, Flora seems to not mind.
Well, I also like her scent, so I decided to stay in the sa position since she also seed to feel the sa. It makes happy when we’re having such close body contact.
The soft floating clouds were leisurely swimming in the sky.
While the hot sunlight shined on us, the occasional breeze that ran across my skin felt really nice.
The crops of the field were also swaying happily with a *za zaa* sound as the wind blew.
「This field has really gotten big, hasn’t it?」
「The two of us worked hard on this」
Our field has gotten so much bigger than before ever since we started working on it casually after we started living together.
We plucked the weeds together and planted new crops.
Now they’ve sprouted and were all quickly growing.
The unmanageable places within the newly cultivated field have been left for growing vegetables in the fall. This way, we would be able to harvest sothing year-round.
I realized yet again that I’ve been working with farrs all year long.
The radishes, carrots, green beans, shails and other leafy vegetables that I’ve first planted were all rapidly growing.
「It looks like we can harvest the carrots and green beans soon」
「Yes, we’ll be able to do so in another two weeks! Then I’m looking forward to the shails and the other leafy vegetables a week after that! After that, we’ll be able to plant more things once that’s over!」
I stroked Flora’s head as she cutely smiled in joy.
She becos more talkative than usual when it cos to planting crops. She really loves that kind of thing.
「Ti has really flown by. We will already be going into fall by the ti we harvest the shales and vegetables」
It was spring when I first arrived here.
And before I noticed, sumr is almost over already as we go into fall.
Living here in this calmness and fun really makes ti fly by before you could realize it.
Just when I was feeling sentintal, Flora’s body started to fidget in my arms.
I looked down at her as I wondered what’s up, then I saw her looking up at with a passionate gaze.
Then, she looked away from bashfully and started to mumble sothing.
「Um, at the harvest festival we’ll be…」
「We’ll beco a married couple」
I smiled as I finished off what Flora was going to say
「…Yes」
Flora muttered in a genuinely happy voice.
I gently put my hands on her body and turned her around.
Then, I hugged her tightly to answer her.
I closed my eyes to feel the warmth of her body.
「…Hey, is it about ti yet? I thought that I should wait a bit but it looked like you two would be going on forever if I did…」
Suddenly, Aisha’s uncomfortable voice ca from behind us.
I didn’t even notice her because I was so captivated by Flora.
「Ahhhh! Aisha?!」
Flora tried to quickly stand up in embarrassnt when she realized that Aisha had been watching her.
Ah, but because she was trying to forcefully stand up from her position, she fell back into again.
I gently caught her since I knew that she won’t be able to stand up while being so impatient.
「Oh, welco back into my arms」
「I’m backk~ -wait, no! We’re in public right now!」
Still, she sounded quite lively when she said that.
After she stood up with flushed cheeks, I also slowly got my ass off the ground and wiped the soil off myself.
Then, Aisha made a deep sigh after taking a look at us.
Weird, usually she would be all happy seeing Flora like this and tease her, but she was being serious today.
「I don’t mind you getting all chummy in front of , but a visitor is looking at you right now, you know?」
Aisha turned around as she said that.
There was a tree where she was looking at. Next to it, there was a girl looking at us with a stupefied expression.
Brown colored hair tied in a ponytail, and she was wearing a cloak that resembled an outsider.
Under her mantle was a pair of short pants made of nice materials. From there, her legs extended to her boots. While holding a long staff in her hands, she had the textbook image of a female wizard.
She did not look like soone from this calm and peaceful village, but she was soone who I knew very well.
She was a mber of the party “Black Silver” where I once used to be the leader of.
The female wizard nad Kurune.
