Chapter 620: I Think This Might Be a Good Opportunity For Us to Get to Know Each Other Better (2/2)

[Eh? Ah, yes. What is it?]

[You like drinking hot milk, right?]

[Y- Yes, I do like them.]

[If you have the time, why don't you stop by for a while since my home is nearby? I also have some delicious pastries prepared.]

[Ehh? Ah, yes. If it's not too much trouble……]

I nodded my head in response to Luna-san's sudden suggestion. To be honest, I don't understand the purpose of this suggestion. The flow of the conversation is just too strange for her to simply invite me to her home.

In that case, her purpose perhaps isn't to invite me, but to treat me to hot milk and some pastries? Even so, I still don't understand why.

[In return, I want you to erase from your memory what just happened and not tell anyone about it.]

[……I understand.]

I see, it's an exchange condition huh. Come to think of it, I remembered that Luna-san had once offered me an exchange deal already, in exchange for not making fun of my dislike for bell peppers, I shouldn't pursue her dislike of bugs.

Perhaps, she is trying to make an exchange condition when she asks for something from the other party. Luna-san is a former adventurer…… It's a job where trust seems to be important, so it's possible that this exchange had become a habit from back when she was an adventurer.

As for me, I'm not really planning on telling anyone about this even if there are no terms of exchange…… but if it makes Luna-san feel more comfortable to accept the offer, there's no reason for me to refuse.

I'm also interested in what Luna-san's home looks like anyway……

Luna-san led me to an area of houses located a few distance away from the main street. Luna-san's home, which is erected on the corner of a street is…… how should I say this…… I don't mean to be rude but…… it looks normal.

The house isn't that big, a two-story house. It looks just right for a family of three. It seems to be a very ordinary house but…… this feels refreshing to me instead.

[It's a nice house with a relaxing atmosphere.]

[It might be a bit cramped, but please come in.]

The houses of the people I knew in this world were all far from the word ”common”. Many of them have large houses, like Lilia-san's mansion, Isis-san's castle and Fate-san's temple.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Sieg-san's home is also a commoner's home, but their house was also designed to look like a large hollowed-out tree, which is unique to the Elves, while Alice's miscellaneous goods store has been expanded with Spatial Magic inside.

Thinking about it again, this might be the first time for me, a Japanese, to visit a house with a familiar shape.

Dear Mom, Dad—————- This might be misfortunate for Luna-san, but this was just right for me who doesn't know how to respond to an incident like this. Luna-san usually has lots of work she needs to do, so we didn't have much chance to talk with each other. We've known each other for a long time————- so I think this might be a good opportunity for us to get to know each other better.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai: [It's seriousness' turn! ……wait, where did it……]

? ? ? : [You're one episode too late.]
