"Want a slap on the back?"

"..."

Eh——?Ehhhhh——?!!

Are my ears hallucinating? Can anyone help me confirm whether what this willful little princess just said was asking me if I wanted to rub her back, or asking me to rub her back for her? The latter option is more likely, right?

.

While I was confused, Princess Sanwu had already slid off the chair, came to my back, and started beating me hard.

"..."

Unexpected, it's really unexpected, and it's very comfortable. Even if it's not comfortable at all, I will feel very comfortable. Besides, it's really comfortable. I'm definitely not a novice.

"I used to help my father beat me."

Behind her, Princess Sanwu said in a low voice, her bright yellow eyes flickering for a few times, as if she was immersed in memories.

Uh, Princess Sanwu's father... I'm sorry, she didn't mention it, but I really forgot that that guy was the former King of Lugaoin, Hejiein, who was imprisoned in the palace in disguise.

It seems that I have to take some time to take this little princess for a visit.

I thought this in my mind and waved to Princess Sanwu behind me.

"Come, come, little Jasmine."

Obediently, at my call, she lay her entire upper body on my lap like a coquettish kitten, squinting her eyes and enjoying my caress on her head.

"..."

When I'm with this little princess, I always feel like a father. What kind of existence do I have in her mind?

I raised my head silently, feeling peaceful in my heart.

No matter what kind of existence it is, it would be great if it could always be like this.

"It's time for you guys to tell me the reasons."

I turned around and glared at the three Vilas who were tiptoeing about to leave. I felt like I was exuding a domineering aura as the head of the family.

"Eh...Eh? This..."

The three of them were startled, and like primary school students who had done something wrong and were called over by their teacher, they cautiously walked over and lined up in front of me.

"Actually, it's like this, because little Jasmine said something bad to the adults yesterday, which made the adults depressed for a whole day, so we discussed how to get little Jasmine to apologize to the adults."

"Then this cup of tea..."

After a pause, I raised the h book in my hand helplessly.

"And this thing, is it all your idea?"

"No, no, no... no, I, I, I... we won't let little Jasmine do such a thing, we just let her give her what she thinks is appropriate."

The three girls quickly denied it.

"Actually... we should have thought that if we talked to little Jasmine like this, she would probably give her something like this."

After being stunned for a while, Linya lowered her head and spoke softly. After speaking, the three girls lowered their heads in shame.

Yes, because little Jasmine... is the little princess.

This idea arose in the minds of the four of us at the same time.

"Is that so? Little Jasmine."

I continued to caress Princess Sanwu's head and asked.

I felt her head tap lightly first, and then shake slightly.

"What's the meaning?"

I looked at Willas and the others.

"Although the first two things were agreed upon by us, beating the adults' backs is something that little Jasmine decided on her own."

The three girls replied with smiles on their faces.

Oh oh oh oh, that’s it, I’m so touched little Jasmine!!

Full of tears, I picked up Princess Sanwu, rubbed her delicate face with my slightly prickly beard, and kissed her again and again.

"Ha...ah haha, actually according to the original plan, there is one last one..."

After saying this, for some unknown reason, the voices of Vilas and the others suddenly dropped. You looked at me, I looked at you, their faces full of hesitation.

"Oh, what else? I'm really looking forward to it now, hahaha~~, tell me quickly."

I didn't notice the expressions of Vilas and the others, and I didn't know that I had erected a death fiag.

"this……"

"You guys are telling me that no matter what it is, even if it is little Jasmine's princess kick, I will accept it gratefully."

While rubbing Princess Sanwu affectionately, I took the last step towards the abyss.

"My lord actually said this..."

Vilas and the others covered their pretty faces sadly, turned around, walked back to the kitchen, and took out a big pot.

"Please...please, can you tell me what this is?"

My smile suddenly froze when I saw a pot full of sticky substances that looked like the evil witch in a fairy tale stirring them.

"Also...what is floating on top of this?"

The black viscous liquid suddenly bubbled a few times, and some unknown objects floated out, and then sank. It was so fast and weird that I couldn't confirm what the things that just popped up were.

"This...this is the feast that little Jasmine carefully prepared in order to apologize to the adults."

Willas, you look at me, I look at you, and you take a cautious step back.

Don't back away, you bastards, are you going to leave me alone?!

Looking at this pot of hell food, I wanted to cry without tears.

"This is...a work of confidence."

At this moment, little Jasmine broke away from my arms and jumped out, giving me a thumbs up. Her shining eyes pushed me to the edge of the cliff.

“Ji~~~~~~~~”

No... don't stare at me like this, bastard, I'll eat it, can't I eat it?

After swallowing a sip of saliva, I turned my attention to the pot of hell cuisine.

Hey hey.

You saw it, you all saw it, just now, a black gas in the shape of a human bone came out of this pot thing!!

No...it doesn't matter. With an adventurer's physique, he should be able to get through it. That's right, and it might be unexpectedly delicious. You can't just look at the appearance, right? Answer me, bastard, even if it's a lie.

You bastard, don’t back off, you bastard!!

Hypnotizing myself like this, I tremblingly picked up the spoon and plunged it into the pot of viscous liquid.

Suddenly, the spoon inserted inside made a scream, followed by a burst of green smoke.

"..."

My life is at an end.

Determined to die, I took a spoon full of black liquid and put it into my mouth with my eyes closed.

Well?

"The taste...is not bad."

I originally thought that I would definitely die, but after subconsciously turning my tongue a few times, I found that the taste in my mouth seemed to be... subtle and okay. It was not as delicious as the one made by Veras, but if compared with my original expectations,

It is simply too much to describe it as delicacies from mountains and seas.

"Sir...sir, you don't have to force yourself."

Tears were already shining in Vilas and the others' eyes.

"I...I'm going to find the priest now."

Linya turned around and ran outside.

"I'll get the hot towels."

Sarah turned and walked towards the bathroom.

The whole house suddenly became a mess.

"They all say I'm fine."

Pulling each girl over, I said dumbfounded.

"I'm not lying to you. Although I have many criminal records and the appearance is really scary, the taste is not that bad."

"Really...really?"
