CH 164

When I woke up in the morning, somehow I felt like Yurina-san’s cheeks were puffing out a little bit.

I wonder what I have done….

OH! Shoot! I forgot to say ‘I love you’ to Yurina-san last night!!

I did my best to say “Good morning, Honey! I love you!” in Lancaster language to brighten her mood again. She then donned an apron to make breakfast while humming a song while I went toI splash my face with cold water.

Phew… I feel so awake now.

I didn’t know what would happen from now on so I decided to keep on practicing. I couldn’t afford to be negligent. We had already decided to stay here for a little while but staying in one place like this had its own risk too.

I think the best course of action to make us harder to find was to stay in the middle of nowhere for a little while like we were doing now, move and repeat the cycle by finding another remote place to stay at. But I was also afraid of us running out of stuck during the coldest period of this winter. We could only stock up on the barest minimum and it’d be difficult if we only stayed hidden without continuing moving on. 

Well, we just need to train ourselves so we can be prepared for any possibilities. 

With that being said, I then practiced martial art, swordsmanship, archery and magic after I finished feeding hay and water to the horse. I was especially focusing on practicing my newly acquired skills, shield bash and round slash. 

Ash wanted me to play with him but I told him,”Papa needs to practice” so I let the blue wolves play with Ash instead.

After finishing a round of my usual practice, I went to have breakfast that Yurina-san had prepared. Today’s menu consisted of a sandwich with pickled raw uni and soup made from dried meat. I praised her cooking,”It’s delicious, Honey.” in a way that didn’t sound too unnatural. Ash, who was looking at the scene unfolding, wagged his tail happily.

I chopped some wood for firewood. The sharp sound of wood being chopped could be heard. The chopped firewood would then be stored into the covered wagon. Since we could never know when we need to move, it’d be better to store the goods that could be stored in the wagon. 

11:00

After that, I took out irene herbs, mylene detoxification herbs, berzin magic herbs, delune fruits and red grizzly bear testicles from the covered wagon to make egil recovery potion, dual potion (medium) and paruna detoxification potion.

As I was mixing the concoction, the usual mechanical voice of the system could be heard together with the system screen popping out.

T/N: Unlike the usual isekai novel, this MC doesn’t have item box skill so he needs to be mindful of his storage, just like in real life. It makes me wonder how big the wagon is since MC can store his alchemy and blacksmithing equipment there.
