Chapter 2: Do j.a.panese People Appear Younger In The Eyes of Otherworlders?For ten years, I worked hard doing all the cleaning, laundry, and cooking for my husband . However, my husband laughed at me . He said those weren’t real jobs, and that all I merely did was to have fun at home . If I earned money and became independent by taking a job like that, my husband would probably ridicule me more .
He’d say things like, 「So in the end, that’s all you know how to do!」
「I want to do something different! I don’t want to give up without even trying . I-if it’s really impossible for me, then…」
I was upset .
I worked really hard doing the cleaning, laundry, and cooking . So hard, I’m sure I wouldn’t even lose to any other professional housewives . Household ch.o.r.es are proper work too .
However, my husband would probably say something like, 「Unlike you, who can only do the ch.o.r.es, she’s capable of both working and taking care of the household . 」
「Hmm, there are plenty of other folks out there that really want to become adventurers… what should we do with you?」
Huh? Adventurer?
「Guess it can’t be helped . I’ll introduce you to a job even a five year old child can do . Work hard and raise your level . Once your level goes up, I can introduce you to other jobs . 」
Was he introducing me to something?
「T-thank you very much!」
「Alright, follow me . I was just about to head to the potion field myself . I’ll bring you along . 」
Potion field?
So, a field job? Hm, that felt like something I could do if I worked hard enough . I could handle earthworms and stink bugs . However if a snake appeared , I probably would get so scared I wouldn’t even be able to get up .
The man jumped over the counter with ease, despite it reaching up to his lower back .
I took a proper look at him and realized he wore some incredible-looking clothing .
He was clad in brown from head to toe . He had a chest protector made of leather, and a belt with a sword hung off his back .
Was he cosplaying to make the place look more game-like? h.e.l.lo Work employees sure have it rough nowadays .
「Ahh, Rofas-san! Please don’t go and introduce jobs on your own accord!」
「There’s no problem though, right? I’ll take responsibility if anything happens . 」
So his name was Rofas-san .
「Geez . I know you’re an S-Rank adventurer, but you keep doing things as you please! You even looked at Yuuri-san’s personal information! I won’t help you if the guild master scolds you later! 」
The lady at the counter exclaimed in anger, then threw a bronze card at Rofas-san .
Rofas-san caught the card with ease, then pulled out the string that tightened his shirt collar .
He strung the card through the string, then stood right in front of me .
「Here, now you’re an adventurer too, young lady . Don’t lose this . 」
Rofas-san said and grinned . He put the stringed card around my neck .
His big hands grazed a bit of my hair .
Ah .
My heart skipped a beat .
I was a married woman, but my heart raced even though it was just a man putting a necklace – not quite, but still – around my neck . Something might be wrong with me .
Fu, fufu .
「Hey, this isn’t a situation where you should laugh . Tuck it into your shirt before you lose it!」
He pinched the corner of the card and pulled open the collar of my cutsew shirt .
「Kya! W-w-what are you doing!!」
He was almost two heads taller than me . If he pulled open my collar, he could see what was inside, right? S-s.e.xual harra.s.sment!!
「Oh, my bad, I mean, sorry . Um, well…」
I grabbed my shirt collar, and glared at him with a red face . I saw that Rofas-san’s face was even redder than mine .
Hm? That didn’t feel like the reaction of someone who just committed an act of s.e.xual hara.s.sment .
「Rofas-san, please don’t treat Yuuri-san the same way as the children who work at the potion field . I’m sorry, Yuuri-san . This guy’s helpful and all, but he likes getting into everyone’s business . He’s like a fly in the ointment…」
The same as the children?
Now wait just a second .
I was already in my thirties . That reminded me, he kept calling me a “young lady”…
Huh? Did he actually think I was young enough to be called “young lady”? No matter how you looked at it, there was no way…
