“Well then, Kent, I’ll be cleaning the range hood now.”
“Understood.”
Kent and Josette decided to clean the range hood installed above the IH cooking heater.
“This screw is proving to be quite difficult to remove… Hnnngh!”
One of the screws on the range hood was stubbornly refusing to budge. Josette, standing on a step stool, was straining with all her might in an unstable position, causing her to tremble.
“Let me take over.”
“No, this is a mission entrusted to me. I will definitely remove it. Nggugugu.”
Refusing Kent’s help, Josette tensed even further in her precarious posture.
“Huh? Ah, Kyaa!”
Suddenly, Josette lost her balance on the step stool.
“Josette, be careful.”
“I-I’m saved. Thank you, Kent.”
Kent rushed forward and caught Josette as she was about to fall from the step stool, preventing her from dropping.
“Kent, how long do you plan to stay like this?”
“Huh? Ah!”
Josette’s body was soft in Kent’s embrace, and he found himself wanting to maintain that position. He continued to hold her as she was. The faint, sweet scent emanating from Josette was incredibly comforting.
“This is my way of thanking you for saving me. You can stay like this as long as you like.”
“Thank you.”
Because of the height difference between Josette, who remained on the stool, and Kent, her large breasts were positioned above Kent’s head. He felt a slight weight, but it was also comforting.
“Th-this is a chance to… do that.”
Josette seemed to be contemplating something.
“Kent, won’t we do something a little more… pleasant?”
“Pleasant?”
“Yes, please wait a moment.”
Josette was wearing the store’s uniform. For her upper body clothing, she loosened it, exposing her two large breasts.
“I heard from Rachel. You like this, don’t you, Kent?”
“Ah!”
Josette then sandwiched Kent’s head between her large breasts and began to press and move them with her hands.
“Th-this is…!”
What Josette was doing to Kent was the same thing Marie had done to him that morning.
“Does it feel good?”
“It feels very good.”
“Then I’m glad.”
Kent savored the softness of Josette’s breasts for a while.
“Well then, Kent…”
“Here’s 50G.”
“Oh, you gave it to me before I could even ask. As expected of Rachel. The amount is perfect.”
Before Josette could finish speaking, Kent presented her with 50G. Josette looked slightly surprised that the exact amount she was about to mention had been presented.
(What exactly is that sister feeding into those two?)
Kent thought to himself, but he was extremely satisfied with what both of them had done to him.
“Well, time is precious, so let’s call this break over and resume cleaning.”
Josette tucked her bared chest back into her uniform, and the two of them restarted their cleaning.
“Al, Emily, good work.”
“We worked a little hard, so we’re tired.”
“Master, Lady Josette, you both worked hard as well.”
Kent and Josette had finished cleaning the kitchen and, after completing their tasks, appeared in the store. Al and Emily were already sitting in chairs in the dining space, taking a break. When Kent called out to them, Al and Emily, who had just noticed him, responded.
“Everyone, good job. Let’s wrap up for today.”
A little while later, Marie also finished her cleaning and appeared. Since everyone had finished their work, they decided to disperse, even though the sun was still high in the sky.
“Then, Emily and I will go help Catherine.”
“Master, Lady Marie, Lady Josette. We’ll be going now then.”
Al and Emily seemed to be heading off to help Catherine. Today, Catherine was accompanying Hanako in her work as a Saintess. It was originally a day off, so she had made plans before the cleaning schedule was finalized.
“Well then, Josette, shall we take your luggage to my house?”
“That would be good. Kent, Marie. Thank you for your hospitality today.”
Josette bowed her head slightly.
“Thank you for having me. Oh, that’s right, I need to take off my shoes.”
In this world, there’s no custom of taking off shoes indoors. Kent’s house, having been renovated to match typical homes in his former country, has a strict no-shoes policy. Since it wasn’t a deeply ingrained habit for Josette either, she removed her shoes as if remembering.
“Kent, Josette, I’ll prepare some tea, so please sit on the sofa and wait.”
“No, I’ll help as well.”
“Really? Then please do.”
After placing her bag, containing her luggage, in the living room with Kent, Josette headed towards the kitchen.
“They seem to be getting along well.”
Josette and Marie started preparing tea in the kitchen while chatting amicably. Kent, left alone, felt a little lonely.
“Kent, thank you for waiting.”
Josette placed the tea set on the coffee table.
“Kent, please have some sweets with your tea too.”
“Thank you, both of you.”
Marie then brought over the sweets and placed them next to the tea set. Josette and Marie sat down, flanking Kent.
(It’s a little cramped, but maybe this is nice too.)
The three of them were in close contact, and the soft feel of Josette and Marie was transmitted to Kent.
“Kent, are you going out with Josette tomorrow?”
“Yes, we made that promise.”
When Marie asked about tomorrow’s plans, Kent answered.
“Marie, I’m borrowing Kent tomorrow.”
“I’m with Kent every day, so please don’t worry and enjoy yourselves.”
Marie didn’t say anything about Kent and Josette going out together. Since they were together at home every day, it seemed like a consideration to not monopolize him and to genuinely allow them to have their time. Afterward, the three of them enjoyed tea time while engaging in small talk.
“I’m hoooome. Huh? Josette, welcome.”
“Welcome home.”
“Thank you for having me.”
After a while, Catherine returned home.
“Mmm, I’m back.”
“I have returned.”
Hanako and Al returned shortly after.
“Oh? You’re going out with Kent tomorrow. That sounds nice.”
“If you’d like, Catherine, would you care to join us?”
“No, I’ll politely decline.”
Catherine and Josette were preparing dinner while chatting happily. Occasional laughter could be heard, along with the sound of chopping from the kitchen and what sounded like frying.
“Well then, I think I’ll go clean the bathroom.”
Marie, who had been sitting next to Kent, stood up and headed towards the bathroom cleaning.
“By the way, Hanako and the others, what were you doing today?”
“Mmm, administrative work and rounds of the store.”
“I see. That must have been tough.”
Kent asked Hanako what she had done that day. She replied that it was administrative work and store rounds.
“Did you have any trouble with the shop-attached fairies?”
“Hmm, if you say there was, there was, and if you say there wasn’t, there wasn’t.”
“Which is it?”
Hearing “store rounds,” Kent thought of the stores with shop-attached fairies scattered throughout the town and asked Hanako, but he only received an ambiguous answer.
“I’m sorry to keep you waiting. Dinner is ready.”
After a while, Catherine, wearing an apron and having finished preparing dinner, appeared in the living room and informed Kent that the meal was ready.
“Josette and I made chicken cutlets today.”
On the table, rice, miso soup, and chicken cutlets were prepared for everyone. The plate with the chicken cutlets was also served with shredded cabbage.
“「「Itadakimasu!」」”
Kent, Marie, Josette, Catherine, and Hanako surrounded the dining table and began their meal. Al had given his seat to Josette, so he was drinking water alone on the living room sofa.
“Kent, how does it taste?”
“It’s very delicious.”
When Josette asked about the taste and Kent replied, Josette and Catherine, who were in charge of the cooking, looked very satisfied. The chicken cutlets seemed to be frozen, but everything else appeared to have been prepared by them. Kent and the others enjoyed their dinner.
“Well then, I’ll take a bath first.”
“Huh? Marie, you’re going in first?”
Normally, she would bathe with Kent, but today Marie had started preparing for her bath first. Then, she went into the bathroom with Hanako. Catherine and Al entered together afterward.
“Well then, Kent, Josette, please enjoy yourselves.”
Catherine, wiping her wet hair with a towel and wearing pajamas, emerged from the bathroom.
“We’ll be in our rooms, so please sleep with Josette tonight, Kent.”
Marie said this to Kent. Both of them seemed to be considerate of Josette, who had gone through trouble to get permission to stay overnight.
“K-Kent. Th-then, let’s take a bath together.”
Josette, her cheeks flushed and a shy expression on her face, invited Kent to join her in the bath.
