It's Easy to Take Care of a Live-in Hero!Ch10.1 - Tender Care Rank B

One by one, I tossed the pitiful-looking potatoes into the pot, having crushed them earlier during the harvest.

I could still use them to make mashed potatoes, and since there was a recipe for this, the task fell under the cooking category, letting me earn PT as a result. It’s basically killing two birds with one stone. Bright and early tomorrow, let’s make my speciality potato salad. I’d finally have a use for the parsley too.

After lightly rinsing off the soil from the surplus potatoes, I stored them away in the underground warehouse. There should be around sixty if I didn’t count wrong. A good harvest, considering I had neglected the potatoes earlier.

“Does the coffee not suit your taste?” I said, pausing in mashing the potatoes to look at the hero. k59F2X

I couldn’t help but flash a wry smile as his face twisted into a mortified expression, a mouthful of coffee the culprit. He was definitely forcing himself to swallow.

“…Is this medicine?”

To hear him say this with such a serious expression troubled me, to say so the least. Coffee was such a useful thing. Kept you awake, helped you maintain a healthy bladder and all.

“It’s something people enjoy for the bitter tang and aroma. A luxury of sorts. Ah, I drink it as well.”

“Yes. I drink it everyday. It’s almost an addiction.”

“Sake, or plain hot water.”

Plain hot water? What were you, an old man?

I cleared my throat, trying to keep myself from bursting into laughter. Then I flashed him a bright smile, uttering a “that sounds nice,” before returning to my potato-crushing operation. 2IJY 7

Since he liked liquor, maybe we could have an aperitif during dinner. Of course, other than that Rosé Wine, which sounded too similar to that huge earthworm’s name.

…What a relief. It seemed like our relationship was going pretty well.

Previously, God had said the hero and I would definitely get along once I talked to him.

To be honest, I was completely overwhelmed by him during the morning. It might have been his aura, this unique atmosphere around him. tqKuhB

Since God had mentioned he was a hero, I was nervous, wondering whether he would be a strict person. I wasn’t a tough person from the start, so if he had treated me harshly with that beautiful face, my heart would have surely shattered.

But my expectations were dashed. The hero was willing to do manual labour and worried about me often… I kept receiving his good will ever since last night.

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

A gentle and reliable hero. I felt glad that he was the owner of this miniature garden.

Without me knowing it, the corners of my lips had tilted upward. But who cared about that now? The hero was currently in the bathroom. VSFvgt

We managed to have a hot bath tonight thanks to him.

After seeing me in high spirits at the sight of hot water, he let me have the first turn in the bathtub. Finally, I was able to enjoy a hot bath after so many days without one.

But because of this, I couldn’t help but feel sleepy now.

I was only recording yesterday’s balance in my notebook, but my eyes felt so heavy― lDkfQM

Since there had been no significant PT expense yesterday, I postponed it and checked my rewards first.

First of all, I managed to save a little PT after cooking breakfast with ingredients sent through the delivery box. There were now more than a hundred recipes added for each category. It could be considered a large amount. In the future, I’d make meals using the vegetables I planted in order to raise my cooking level.

My rank for both fetching water and chopping firewood was C. In other words, the reason why I could take a bath tonight was completely thanks to the hero. He should already have the highest ranks for both drawing water and chopping wood, right? Even I would evaluate his skill in chopping wood today as satisfactory.

After that, the only problem is this Share a Bed task… RNvukg

[Share a Bed: 2000 * 8 = 16000 PT]

The counter was increasing.

Since this was yesterday’s record, I should have received this PT reward as I had been tossing and turning with a fever. I had no recollection of it, but I was sure I had been tossing and turning a lot. Maybe this was what disturbed the hero’s sleep?

There was another problem. 0OXU3R

Before the Share a Bed task, there was a record of something else I did not remember doing. Looked like another notification had overwritten it, so I didn’t notice it until now.

[Tender Care Rank B: 6000 * 1 = 6000 PT]

Uh huh… Tender care, huh? I received this task and reward in the past as well. But this should be considered a bug, right?

After all, I really didn’t remember what I did to earn these PT rewards. I double-checked the record. Back then, when I had wiped down the hero, the task was only Rank C. ivzx6N

Now, it was Rank B. The evaluation increased by a level.

So scary. What did I do to get 6,000 PT in one go?

“That’s right, I should check my status screen!”

And the moment I did, I almost let out a scream. MTF0Ql


Edit: Sorry, I messed up with the date! (I’m a dummy dumb…) Chapter 10.1 is supposed to be out tomorrow… But since I already posted it, I’ll just leave it as it is, but there won’t be any chapter tomorrow. (• ▽ •;)

  1. Feeding your husbando, of course it’ll increase the level.

    Hehehe..

    I wonder what surprised him.

    Can’t wait for the next chapter.

    Thank you for the update ❤️

  2. …What joke? Author-San, you do realize that caffeine is addicting, yes? This is one of the most basic facts about it, yes?

  3. thank you~ thank mii~

    uwu I’m a dirty minded cat who cant wait for any little bit of steam…

    tehe~ ;9

    • You’re welcome~ It’s my pleasure! (=^・ェ・^=)

      Wahhh bad myuktea-san! I will be lying if I say I’m not looking forward when we reach more action though~~ (っ.❛ ᴗ ❛.)っ //slapped

  4. What happened last night?! Did they hug each other or something like that? Minoru doesn’t even know, he’s still pure in his head XD

    Thanks for the chapter!

  5. So, Minoru, do you have the tendency to hug others when you sleep or beeing sick? >3 I don’t know anything else to get the points xD

    Thx for the premature ch (ㅅ˘ㅂ˘)

  6. thank you for this chapter ^^

    my guess is the bed sharing is multiplied by the number of times they consecutively sleep in the same bed (at least for now)

  7. at least minoru knows to be suspicious, instead of just being happy to receive pts 🤣🤣🤣

  8. They’re so cute together! I can’t wait to see where this goes ❤️🎉

    (Also, people. It’s a relationship between two MEN – can we stop the whole ‘wife/y’ thing now, please? People can both be husbands, or both be wives!)

  9. They’re so cuuuute together!! I can’t wait to see what happens next. Thank you for the chapter and all your hard work!

    However, I do have something to say. As a queer person, it makes me uncomfortable when Minoru (and other male characters) are referred to as a wife/y. They’re both men. It’s okay to have two husbands, and it’s okay to have two wives. Just… something to keep in mind.

    • Whoa looks my comment posted twice? Sorry, all!

    • Ah, sorry if my comments make you feel uncomfortable, Momoo-san! I’ll keep that in mind from now on. (✿^‿^)

    • I don’t know if you’ll like this story then, since the whole plot is around Minoru becoming the hero’s “wife”.

      I think it’s sort of a joke or slang in this kind of novels, at least I believe most of us use it like that, not like we think Minoru is a woman or needs to act like one.

      I understand if it bothers you, it would bother me too if it was used on a real person and they disliked it.

      Still, this is that sort of story and we just use it for harmless fun. So I can only say sorry in advance.

  10. I want to read Sig’s pov soon~!

    Will there be one?

    And also want to read about them sharing the bed, will they cuddle? Will Sig eat Minoru’s tofu~? (Maybe nothing will happen….*sob sob*)

    Thanks for the chapter, love you lots~

    (๑ơ ₃ ơ)~🌸

  11. Awwww… mii-san, you’re not dumb. You’re smart for being able to translate this!! (I can barely read spanish, and i’ve been taking classes for a few years now…..)

  12. It’s so funny to me as a bisexual to read MC’s thoughts, like we all know that he’s a mlm but he doesn’t. It doesn’t occurre to him that most of his interne monologues in associations with ML are very much gay™.

    Realisation will slap him in face. “Ah… Everything make sense now. ” and “Past me is such a dumb bitch. “
