Chapter 40 - Chapter 40: Work? I can't possibly work

Satou Kazuma supported his cheek with one hand, tilting his head to look at Natsuki Subaru.

This guy definitely wants to use this as a reason to stay in the mansion, right?

Not only can he be by Emilia's side, but he can also maintain a close relationship with the two maids.

Natsuki Subaru, your idea is good—

But this method is too stupid!

Since the other party owes you a favor, you should take advantage of it properly!

If I were you, I would definitely say I want to be a freeloader here.

You would definitely question me, wondering if freeloading would bother me.

The answer is absolutely not!

If there's a chance to freeload, refusing would be idiotic!

What exciting world adventures? Living in a luxurious mansion, enjoying delicacies every day, and being able to spend time with beautiful maidens – that's the real good life!

Natsuki Subaru, you're still too young.

Although they are about the same age, Satou Kazuma's face showed a playful smile belonging to an elder, and then he shook his head slightly.

"Kazuma, you're looking at me with a disdainful look, aren't you?"

"Not at all."

Satou Kazuma gave his answer without hesitation.

"Since it's Subaru-sama's wish, then of course we can fulfill it. I'll have Ram and Rem give you a tour of the mansion later. Then, Aqua-sama, Kazuma-sama, may I ask if you two have any desires?"

Roswaal shifted his gaze to Aqua and Satou Kazuma.

He was very curious about what Aqua and Satou Kazuma wanted.

After Roswaal asked the question, Aqua showed a very serious expression:

"I don't know what extent Roswaal you can go to."

"As long as it's something I, as Lugunica's top court magician and border lord, can do, I will do my best to fulfill it."

"Then, do you have alcohol?"

"Alcohol?"

A hint of surprise rarely appeared on Roswaal's face.

Aqua's serious expression just now made Roswaal once think that the other party would make a very demanding request.

But she actually asked if they had alcohol?

Just alcohol?

Does her statement contain some unknown deeper meaning?

Is she testing me?

Roswaal frowned, trying to think of the possible meaning in Aqua's words, but he also knew that it would be rude to not answer for a long time, so he immediately said with a smile:

"Yes, of course. I just don't know what kind of alcohol Aqua-sama wants."

"Then bring a little of everything!"

......

Before long, Rem and Ram brought all sorts of wine bottles to the dining room.

"Aqua-sama, please, which would you like to drink first—"

"Just give it to me!"

Kids make choices; Aqua wants everything.

The profound pretense from just now was gone, and Aqua picked up a bottle of wine, used her goddess power to control the liquid inside, popped the cap open, and poured the wine directly into her mouth.

"Aqua's way of drinking... is so bold..."

Natsuki Subaru looked at Aqua with some confusion, then turned to look at Satou Kazuma, whose face showed an expression that seemed to contain a hint of resentment.

"Is Kazuma complaining that the reward Aqua requested is too ordinary?"

But he didn't know that what Satou Kazuma cared about wasn't this at all.

"That useless goddess! At other times, she purifies the surrounding liquid into water, but that ability is useless when she's drinking, huh!"

Satou Kazuma stared intently at Aqua, but seeing the dazzling array of glass wine bottles on the table, he couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

Since this is another world, he really should enjoy it!

"Subaru, come and help me open a wine bottle."

"Huh? Why me?"

"You're a servant now, right? This is what you should do as a servant, right? I'm a valued guest here."

"....."

Natsuki Subaru couldn't refute him for a moment.

He took the initiative to become a servant, but he felt like Satou Kazuma was taking advantage of him?

Just as Natsuki Subaru was thinking about how to refuse Satou Kazuma, he heard Ram and Rem's loud 'whispering' next to him.

"This guest said he would be a servant, but it seems like he hasn't prepared for it."

"His name is Barusu, right? He doesn't even know how to open a wine bottle."

"Hey, hey, hey, big sis, it sounds like my name has become some kind of terrible curse..."

Natsuki Subaru sighed helplessly. After all, he chose to join the mansion, so he could only step forward to help Satou Kazuma open the wine bottle and pour the crystal-clear liquid into his glass.

"You poured a good drink! Servant Subaru!"

"You could just not say anything, thanks."

Satou Kazuma poured the wine into his mouth, and the cool and spicy sensation instantly surged into his mouth, sweeping away the fatigue of the day.

"Ah—that's great!"

Another world, he should enjoy it properly!

"Is that stuff that good?"

Felt, who was sitting across the table, looked at Satou Kazuma with curiosity, and was also a little curious about the taste of the wine.

But just as she poured the wine into her glass, the next second, the glass disappeared.

"Lolis aren't allowed to drink!"

Satou Kazuma snatched the wine glass directly at a speed that exceeded Felt's imagination.

"Huh? Why can't I drink!"

"You're not old enough to drink yet!"

"I'm an adult already!"

"Lolis shouldn't say things like that!"

These words instead aroused Felt's rebellious nature, and she immediately stepped forward to snatch the wine glass, but Satou Kazuma held Felt's head with one hand, and the other party waved her two hands around in the air, but because of the difference in size between the two, Felt couldn't touch the wine glass at all.

In those few seconds, Satou Kazuma had already drunk all the wine in Felt's glass.

"That's great!"

"I'll never forgive you, Satou Kazuma! I must drink it!"

"As soon as you pour the wine, I'll use my steal ability! Don't blame me if I steal your panties then~"

"You! I'm going to kill you!"

On the other side, Emilia looked at the crystal-clear liquid in front of her and swallowed hard.

She had never drunk alcohol before and didn't know what it tasted like.

But watching the satisfied expressions on Aqua and Satou Kazuma's faces, she couldn't help but feel curious, picked up the wine glass next to her, and took a small sip—

The next moment, Emilia's face turned red, and her body began to sway.
