I was able to nap in the central park without anything happening.
Though I ordered the Clothes Golem to repel people that might try to obstruct my nap just in case, it looks like that didn’t happen this time. But I slept quite well, about two hours.
… Crap, I slept too long. I wonder if Meat is angry.
As for information, I only obtained two things. “Apples here are sour, sugar is valuable” and “The central park is great for a nap”. Well even though I immediately had an idea, I might have to face my honor.
I rushed to the blacksmith where the commission to clean the restroom was in a bit of a run.
Since I didn’t make an appearance of leaving, I secretly entered the restroom.
“Goshujin-sama, you’re back?”
“Yeah, I gathered enough information. How was it here?”
“I turned him away just one time. Though he came again after that, I said we were done since it had been an hour. I got his signature and was waiting for Goshujin-sama.”
Ah, now that I think about it I didn’t say where to wait… yep, I’m really sorry.
“You didn’t have to wait in the toilet and could have been on a table or something you know?”
“S-sorry. Will you punish me?”
Meat apologized while hanging her head down and fidgeting.
No, I didn’t say you did something bad so why would I punish you?
I patted Meat’s head as gently as possible. Her soft hair was pleasant to the touch. Her dog ears were soft.
“Ahh…”
Meat made a blank look, making me somewhat shy after a short time of continuing to stroke her.
Was she overcome with emotion from being stroked? She followed along while hugging my right arm even though she usually restrained herself. What a cute child.
