Chapter 32: Mining
She is already a rank 4 chef, who is about to reach rank 5, so she can’t understand why she was being sent here where no one can even understand her cooking.
From the very first day, she has been cooking without putting much effort and only using her basic skills, and even then no one had any complaints about her.
If she had served these dishes to her master, she would have beaten her up, but here no one is saying anything.
She had almost believed that her master had sent her on a vacation in the disguise of cooking in the mana mine, and especially being around so many male humans, she did enjoy her time.
She did find quite a few who looked handsome, but she didn’t have the courage to talk to them, so she would usually enjoy just watching from afar.
But out of everyone, the hottest human here had paid her an unexpected visit out of nowhere today. She can’t understand why, but she felt quite nervous now, because she had no experience talking to men, as she would usually train her cooking or train her magic, and her day would be under her master’s care.
But as a woman, she didn’t show anything on her face and stood in her place, trying to keep a poker face.
However, suddenly, the handsome human named Arthur held both her hands out of nowhere.
Fira’s mind went completely blank due to this sudden move. She hadn’t expected him to hold her hands out of nowhere.
She could feel his large hands all over hers; she could feel his warmth.
A blush appeared on her face due to being embarrassed by that sudden move.
Arthur had said what he wanted, and now he noticed the blush on her face. Realizing his own mistake due to his excitement, he quickly backed away with his hands.
"I am sorry; I was just so excited that I didn’t realize that I had held your hands."
Fira, hearing his words, quickly replied to him.
"No, no, it’s nothing. You don’t have to say anything."
While she was embarrassed, she did quite enjoy the time her hands were held by him. Her heart is still beating faster due to the sudden excitement.
But she wouldn’t say that, as if she said that, she would look like a creep in front of him.
She even felt everything was wrong, as she should be the one to say thank you to him for holding her hands, even if it was a mistake.
However, she felt quite strange for getting praised by him for the most basic dish, in which she didn’t even put much effort. She felt embarrassed to even accept his praise. She even thought he was trolling her; however, the excited look on his face when he said those words—she knew he was being genuine.
’But how? She had watched him for the last two months, yet he didn’t say a word to her, but now suddenly this?
It’s quite hard to understand this. Even yesterday, when he had thanked the staff out of nowhere, it did indeed feel strange. free𝑤ebnovel.com
’It felt as if he were a completely different person.’
Now that she looks at him, he even looks much more attractive than usual. His face is much brighter than usual.
She can’t understand what is happening.
But one thing is sure—the way she acted in front of him, he would definitely think she is a loser.
’Getting all red when having her hand held by a man, shouldn’t this be the other way around?’
’Hah! He must be thinking I am a loser.’
Arthur, unaware of her inner monologue and her finding his behavior strange, noticed that there isn’t much time left—he had to go.
So he quickly said goodbye.
"Miss, your food was very delicious. I will look forward to the lunch."
"I have to go now, so bye."
Arthur left without waiting for her reply, as he didn’t want to be late, and Fira was left standing in her place, waving to him, with a lost look on her face.
’I haven’t even put much effort into cooking those dishes, and he still seemed to enjoy them so much that he personally came here to let me know.’
’I can’t understand how someone can enjoy those basic dishes so much.’
She remembered the scene from before, which made her heart beat quickly once again. She could feel it—he was genuine in expressing his feelings.
She had a thought in her mind that brought a wide smile to her face as she couldn’t help but giggle to herself.
"Hehehe."
’If I had made such an average dish and he thanked me by holding my hands due to excitement, what if I put much more effort into cooking?’
She can’t imagine what would happen. She is very excited to find out.
She did imagine very wild thoughts in her mind, which made her blush once again. She quickly left the hall for the kitchen, as she had to prepare lunch, and she would like to take her time while doing so.
Arthur had now joined the line that was being led to the mines for work. From a distance, he could see the entrance of the mine, and at the entrance, he noticed two familiar half-elves—Liora and Zyra.
Seeing them both, he felt quite warm inside because of how much care they had shown him in the past days.
When he reached in front of them, he could see both of them were looking at him with warm eyes, so he decided to greet them with a warm smile on his face like their own.
"Good morning, Liora."
"Good morning, Zyra."
Liora and Zyra, who suddenly heard him, were caught off guard due to this unexpected greeting from him. It came as a surprise to them and made both their hearts flutter a bit.
They were quite worried about him yesterday after leaving him with the warden, but now, seeing him doing quite well, they felt relieved. But still, they were very curious to know what happened when they left.
But the unexpected warm greeting had made them forget this for now, as with smiles of their own, they replied to him.
"Good morning to you, too, Arthur. Be careful when you are in the mines."
Zyra especially added a bit more.
"Don’t get hurt, Arthur. You can call us if you need anything."
