Chapter 495.1
A Busy Day
“Lefi”
“What?”
“I’m ultimately bored, so do something entertaining.”
“Oops, here it comes. My husband’s sudden and reckless demand. But I am a good wife. I can handle anything my husband throws at me.”
“Oh, good, you’re more enthusiastic than usual, my wife Lefi. Let’s see what you have in mind.”
“Well, look at this! –Behold, the towering pillar!”
“Bufu!”
Before Lefi even started her impersonation, the subject alone had me laughing.
At this point, I had already lost.
“Hey, buddy…when did you get so good at this? You really do act differently from usual.”
“Hmph, what can I say? A wife is only a wife when she evolves. How about you? Are you evolving as a husband?”
“…Well, since you put it that way, I guess I’ll just have to show you what I can do! It’s my turn. Watch me, Lefi!”
I mimicked burnt meat.
“…”
“…”
Lefi looked very disappointed.
“…Why don’t you say something?”
“My husband doesn’t have a sense of humor, huh?”
“Don’t be silly, if the world were a better place, I’d be a star by now, a successful comedian.”
“Unfortunately, such a society doesn’t exist anywhere in the world.”
What a load of nonsense.
Was there really no world or society that would accept a talent like me?
After exchanging a few jokes, I said to Lefi again.
“Lefi.” (Yuki)
“What?” (Lefi)
“I’m seriously bored. Do you have anything, anything we can do? Chess would be nice, but… something else would be nicer.” (Yuki)
“I’m not sure if I’d enjoy playing that. I’m certainly not busy, but… hmmm…” (Lefi)
Lefi and I struggled to come up with anything in particular.
“I don’t know how our little girls can have so much fun and enjoy each and every day of their lives. I’ve never once seen them not having fun.” (Yuki)
“I think children are better than adults in that aspect. Adults must first think of ways of ‘killing time’ in their mind.” (Lefi)
“And we argue like this. Yes, adults should learn more about the innocence of children.” (Yuki)
“You’re childish enough– Well, pure enough, I don’t think you need to learn more than you already have.” (Lefi)
“Now I think I’m hearing some slander, is it my imagination?” (Yuki)
“It’s just your imagination. So, why don’t we take a cue from the children and play tag today?” (Lefi)
“I’ll never win, will I?” (Yuki)
There’s no way I could beat her in a game of physical strength.
Even now, there were hardly any sports in which I could beat her.
By the way, I could barely beat her in table tennis and badminton even now.
In these two sports, if you put too much force into the game, the ball would fly in the wrong direction, which was relatively difficult for Lefi to adjust because of her overwhelming power and her inability to control it delicately.
However, since she started playing with little girls, she learned to hold back with all her might, and this weakness was slowly being improved.
…And, due to the evolution of my race, I have been the one who was becoming less skilled at controlling force, so the gap between Lefi and me was closing in.
The other day, when I was scrubbing a plate, I put too much force into it and broke it.
I was a little nervous, because if things continue as they were, there was a possibility that I might become the number one most clumsy person in our family.
I should practice holding back my power, which I should have been able to do as a matter of course…
