Morgan le Fay Episode

Ethan. Get over here and rub my shoulders.

...Why would I?

I used a lot of mana because of some stupid pig... and now my shoulders are all stiff.

At this rate, I can't do anything.

Ngh...

Hmm. What's with that sneaky touch?

What are you talking about?! I'm just rubbing them!

Your hand kept sliding down from my shoulder.

T-That didn't happen!

Heh-heh. I understand.

To a pervert pig, this Fairy Queen's figure must be an irresistible temptation.

Thanks to my boundless generosity, I'll forgive you just this once.

Who are you calling a pervert?!

I'm not interested in a brat like you!

Hmm? Is that so?

What a shame.

If you'd been honest...

I was going to show you something even more amazing.

...

I'll give you one more chance.

Did you really not think anything at all?

Well, a little... I thought you were attractive.

...Pfft!

Ahahahaha! How long have you been holding that in?

You're the one who told me to be honest!

Hahaha... Fine.

Since you were honest, I should reward you.

Now, close your eyes.

Hey, what the hell is this...?

...Yawn. I'm getting sleepy.

See you tomorrow.

That brat... she played me!

I take that back! You're still a nasty little brat!!!

Yeah. Even if you got bigger, you're the same inside, right?

To me, you're still a nasty little brat.

Hmph. There's no point pretending you're innocent now,

I already know you stare at my chest every day.

T-That's just a man's natural instinct.

It's not like I was looking with bad intentions!

Ah, failed again...

What are you doing first thing in the morning?

It's nothing.

While we've been staying at the inn, we've been mooching off other people's cooking the whole time.

So I figured I'd make food for a day... but it's not going well.

The cooking methods are totally different from my world.

Hehe. I knew it. You can't do anything without me, Ethan.

If you had worries like that, you should've come to me first.

...You can't cook either.

Who said that?

It's not that I can't cook.

I just don't, because it's a hassle.

So you haven't cooked in ages, is what you're saying...

Heh-heh. For this Fairy Queen, nothing is impossible.

A simple recipe like this is easy if you've watched it once!

...Seriously?

Of course. Just name any dish.

I'll make it right away.

Uh, uh...?

What are you doing?!

You burned all the meat!

That's weird.

It's supposed to go whoosh on the grill, then bam, it's done...

Then first, let's season it...

Wait! That's sugar, not salt!

Next, the meat and vegetables...

You have to chop the vegetables before you put them in! Why would you throw them in whole?!

...

The recipe is weird.

Don't be ridiculous!

This is the recipe Elizabeth and Esteria used.

We're just hopeless at this!

No. This recipe is just needlessly complicated.

There's a much easier and tastier recipe than this!

What is it? Gah?! Why are you opening a portal all of a sudden?!

...

Just follow me.

Huff... huff...

How much longer... do we have to go...?

Tired already?

With stamina this weak... do you really think you can beat the Apostles?

You're... flying with magic...!

I've been climbing this mountain for five hours...!

Hang in there. We're almost there.

We're here.

Ugh! I'm dying here!

So... where are the ingredients for this recipe?

Don't tell me you mean that flower field.

That's right. Those flowers are the key ingredient.

...

You're messing with me right now, aren't you?

Heh-heh! Keep laughing while you can.

One bite, and you'll change your mind.

...This is definitely different from before.

Here. Try it.

...! What is this... it's good.

Hehe, see? This is who I am!

Just one flower changes the flavor this much... That's wild.

...

Morgan?

I heard it in passing.

I'm the Fairy Queen, aren't I?

There isn't a dish in Britannia I haven't tasted.

Of course I'd know.

...Fair point.

...

Morgan?

Heh-heh. No special reason.

If this recipe became public...

Greedy humans would ruin this flower field, so I kept it secret.

...Fair point.

All right. Time to pay for the meal.

Of course. Nothing in this world is free.

You used this Fairy Queen's special recipe... so it'll be expensive.

Sorry, but I don't have that much money...

Don't worry. I'll take something other than gold.

Heh-heh. No need.

There's a way you can pay it all at once.

What is it?

You become my servant.

No way!

Why? Isn't it an honor for a human to serve this Fairy Queen as your master?

If I become your servant... who knows what you'll make me do.

I'd rather pay than be your slave for life.

...

How about a million gold?

Enough for you to eat all the desserts you want and still have plenty left over...

Ugh. You're really this clueless...!

...! W-What... what are you doing all of a sudden...?

When I tell you to be my servant...

I mean don't go dying on your own and leaving your master behind.

Ah...

I know what you were thinking when you saved me back then.

But... think about how it feels for the people you leave behind.

Sorry...

Humans only die once. That's the end.

But you got lucky.

Because this Fairy Queen was your ally.

Right... I really do appreciate that...

So from now on, don't go dying on your own.

I paid a very heavy price to fix your mistake...

So live properly from now on. Got it?

...Yeah. I promise.

Protecting everyone matters, but...

I'm going to survive to the end and make it back home.

Heh-heh. Now that's a face I can finally stand.

But that "price" you mentioned...

It's a secret.

...Fine.

Hehe. Don't be upset.

Once a little time passes... you'll find out.
