NOVEL NEXT Chapter 777
Phillip would carry the barrel
“…I suppose it’s during these times…where I have to carry it.”
I heard Phillip mutter as he carried the barrel.
I felt bad. And I would have given him a strengthening herb, only I didn’t have any on me. And I could not use Weed Cultivation while other people were around…
“Um, I would like to stay here and help Mr. Kanat. Is that alright?”
“Ms. Delia. Yes, we’re just going to return to the mansion now…so you should help him. But please don’t push yourself too hard.”
“Yes, of course. While I did a lot today, this will be nothing.”
“In any case…about whether or not you will be able to teach Liza. Have you made a decision?”
“Ah…yes. If you are fine with someone like me teaching her… I am not very smart… But I would be happy to do it. Or to work with the herb fields.”
My main reason for it was so that Liza could learn to read and write, while also having a beastkin friend. So she didn’t need to be that smart.“Haha. Well, I’m not much different… It should not be a very demanding job. However, are you interested in doing other work as well?”
“Well, that is why I came here. And to see Leo…”
“I see. Well, I shall think of something then…”
“Oh, but I hope it won’t be too difficult…”
“Yes, of course. Don’t worry about that. Haha.”
I did not want her to be overworked if she was also Liza’s teacher. I would just have to wait and see before deciding.
Ah, and one other thing…
“Here. For your room at the inn. I know it might be a little uncomfortable to accept it, but I wanted to thank you for playing with Liza and Leo.”
“Uh…very well.”
Sebastian had told me the average fee earlier. And I had added a silver on top of it.
“Well, we should go now. Liza and Leo. Say goodbye to Ms. Delia.”
“Okay, let’s play again!”
“Wuff!”
“Uh, yes. I look forward to meeting you again.”
While Claire and Sebastian were paying Mr. Kanat, we said our farewells. And then we left the store.
Apparently, Ms. Delia would help Mr. Kanat, and then return to the village tomorrow.
They had been able to sell all the products, and since there was a wagon, she decided to go with him.
“Phillip, thank you.”
“Ahh… I did not expect to have to carry something so heavy today. Well, I guess this is part of my training. The master would be furious if he heard me complaining about this.”
“Haha. Yes, Mr. Ekenhart would say that you’ve grown soft.”
“But being scolded would be preferable to undergoing that training again…”
We made our way through Ractos, and then waited for Sebastian to bring the carriage. And so I talked to Phillip, who was carrying the barrel.
While he might have expected to carry some things…he clearly did not expect something of this size.
As for the training, I had heard him talk about it before. He was shuddering by just thinking about it.
I definitely had no interest in experiencing it for myself.
And so I would be careful to never mention it in front of Mr. Ekenhart, as he was likely to gleefully force me to participate.
