410 guardians (1/2)

The next morning, I woke up at the usual time, without much effect from the late night. Or, to be more precise, at the same time of day as usual.

In my previous world, I used to stay up all night and stay up all night, so I guess it doesn't matter that I lost a day of sleep. Physically, I'm getting younger.

Everyone, including the fairies, hadn't woken up yet. As usual, I suppose. Most of the time, everyone is up and getting ready while I'm fetching water.

There was a possibility that they would wake up later than usual today, so I proceeded with my preparations more quietly than usual.

When I finished my preparations and went outside, I found our two cute little guys waiting for me as usual.

I put my finger to my mouth and said, ”Everyone might still be asleep today, so be quiet.

I put my finger to my mouth and told them. I put my finger on their mouths and told them to be quiet. Krull replied quietly, ”Clu,” and Lucy made a small ”woof” sound.

”Good, good, good, good.

I patted them both on the head and handed them the water bottles. Two for me and Krull, and one small one for Lucy. The three of us headed for the lake.

”Hey, is everyone awake?

When we came back, everyone was awake as usual. So were the three fairies.

”A little later than usual, though. But it's not that late.

Deanna replies. They don't look as sleepy as usual. Maybe it's because it's only one night and they're young. The others don't look particularly sleepy either.

Except for Anne. She always looks sleepy, so it's hard to tell the difference.

I asked her if she was all right, but she waved her hands and said, ”It's the same as usual.

I asked her if she was all right, but she waved her hands and said, ”It's the same as always, so don't worry about it.

No problem. Okay, no problem.

Then we all had breakfast together. As I had imagined, the fairies, whose bodies are mostly made up of magic power, only need to eat very little.

They can eat if they want to, but the amount they need is about the size of our little fingernails. The amount of food they need is about the size of our pinky fingernails, and they often don't eat anything for a whole day. I guess the story that ”we live on the nectar of flowers” is not so wrong in this world.

He also said that he does not like meat very much. So, after stewing the dried vegetables, I prepared a small portion for the fairy before adding the meat. The seasoning itself is based on salt and pepper.

Without the meat, I personally felt that it lacked a bit of flavor, but when I asked Giselle to taste it (she drank from a spoon), she said

It's delicious!

But when Giselle tasted it (she drank it from a spoon), she said, ”It's delicious!” so I decided to serve it to the fairies. Since we didn't have dishes for them, we had to serve them in small cups. When I apologized for the lack of their size spoons, she said.

When I apologized for this, they said, ”No, no, don't worry about it.
