Noon.
When Yuzuki woke up, he caught a faint scent.
As he opened his eyes, he saw pure white.
He immediately understood what was happening.
Who uses facial cleanser in the morning?
He reached out and pushed the figure in front of him. As expected, Tohru—who had curled up and fallen asleep last night had gradually shifted into a hugging position.
"Mmm~"
Tohru woke up, lazily opening her eyes, her tail swaying behind her.
"Good morning, Yuzuki-san."
Yuzuki stretched. "It's noon, not morning."
"!?"
Tohru was startled and turned to look out the window. Indeed, the sun was almost at its peak.
"I slept so long, but it was so comfortable~"
Tohru stretched, mimicking Yuzuki.
However, her D+-cup figure was barely contained by her pajamas, nearly spilling out.
"..." Yuzuki showed respect but still wondered: "Tohru, I told you to decide after understanding last night. Did you really understand?"
"I understood." Tohru nodded in confirmation.
"What did you understand?"
"It's okay if a maid sleeps with Yuzuki-san. It's allowed, so I came in the middle of the night."
"???"
What kind of understanding was this?
Yuzuki was dumbfounded, barely maintaining his composure.
"No, are you sure that's what you understood?"
Tohru tilted her head. "Isn't it?"
"...Well, I suppose it is, as long as you're sure."
"Mm, I'm sure."
"Ah... alright then."
Seeing Tohru's serious and unrepentant expression, Yuzuki had nothing more to say. It was good that Tohru could decide for herself.
She wasn't a child.
Though her human form looked about 16-18 years old, her actual dragon age was unknown.
Of course, by dragon standards, she was still a young girl.
He got up and changed clothes.
Yuzuki then led Tohru who had magically changed her clothes downstairs.
Tohru looked around the restaurant, recalling the maid duties she had researched online last night, and suddenly became full of determination!
"Yuzuki-san, leave the daily restaurant tasks to me!"
"I'll definitely fulfill my duties as a maid!"
Yuzuki looked at the energetic Tohru and felt immensely relieved.
"Don't push yourself too hard. Rest when you need to. The daily tasks are cleaning and serving food."
"Mm-hmm!" Tohru nodded. "Leave it to me!"
Next.
Yuzuki prepared the ingredients needed for the night.
Meanwhile, Tohru cleaned.
She held a towel and mop, wiping down all the tables, chairs, and stools, then mopped the floor until it was spotless.
After finishing, she even checked if the pots, pans, and dishes in the kitchen were clean.
The two had a clear division of labor one in the kitchen, one outside.
What used to take time and effort, what used to give Yuzuki a headache when he woke up, suddenly became unnecessary today.
For once, his legs didn't ache, his back didn't hurt, and his spirits were high.
Yuzuki had been in a good mood since morning.
Especially after seeing how thoroughly Tohru cleaned the restaurant, he felt completely relaxed.
"I never imagined such a wonderful day!" Yuzuki exclaimed.
Tohru finished cleaning and stood with her hands on her hips. "How is it, Yuzuki-san?"
"Perfect." Yuzuki gave a thumbs-up.
After Cleaning.
Yuzuki went to the kitchen and made a large glass of lemon tea for both of them.
Tohru hugged the lemon tea, took a sip, and her eyes instantly sparkled she gulped it down quickly!
"Don't rush, drink slowly." Yuzuki sipped his own. "I made a whole jug. You can pour yourself more at the bar."
"After you rest, I'll take you to the nearby market to look around. From now on, we'll need to buy fresh fruits and vegetables daily."
Tohru nodded repeatedly, looking extremely happy.
Soon after, Tohru finished her glass of lemon tea, letting out a soothing "Ah~" sound.
"Want another glass?" Yuzuki asked.
Tohru shook her head. "Let's go to the market!"
"Alright." Yuzuki picked up his own lemon tea and took Tohru straight to the car.
The two arrived at the outer corner of the courtyard.
A small van was parked there, slightly dusty.
Tohru saw it and declared: "This little car also needs cleaning."
Yuzuki opened the car door. "Let's clean it when we get back."
"That works too."
Tohru got into the car wearing her maid outfit.
Yuzuki sat in the driver's seat on the right, and Tohru sat in the passenger seat on the left.
Neon lights flashed on the left as the car drove on the right.
Yuzuki took the keys from his system space, inserted them, and started the car. The small van's engine roared to life.
Tohru noticed Yuzuki had conjured the keys out of nowhere and suddenly understood.
"Yuzuki-san, you can use magic too!"
"Ah, this…" Yuzuki thought for a moment and nodded, as if he could do it later. "Let's just call it magic."
After the car started, Yuzuki reversed and headed toward the market they visited yesterday.
Along the way, Tohru observed the scenery and also watched Yuzuki's driving.
She even curiously picked up the driver's license and asked: "What's this?"
"A driver's license." Yuzuki glanced at it. "You need qualifications to drive. Otherwise, it wouldn't be good if everyone drove bumper cars on the road."
"I see." Tohru understood.
A short while later.
The two arrived at the market and went straight to shopping.
When they came out, they were carrying several bags.
They loaded the goods into the car.
Before heading back, Tohru suddenly raised her hand and said:
"Yuzuki-san, I want to try driving back!"
Yuzuki recalled when he had just learned to drive: "You've studied it?"
"Roughly."
"Give it a try." Yuzuki tossed her the car keys and reminded her: "Don't drive too fast. Don't exceed 60 mph."
"Yes~!"
Yuzuki had driven them there.
Tohru would drive them back.
Yuzuki supervised Tohru her handling was fine and very smooth.
Tohru was just a little nervous, or rather, excited.
"Tohru is really a genius." Yuzuki gave a thumbs-up, praising Tohru.
"Hehe, not at all." Tohru became even happier.
There was no need to rush back.
The small car circled around a bit before heading back.
Along the way, Yuzuki noticed that security personnel in District 20 had indeed increased.
There were people from the Security Bureau, CCG, and the Anti-Devil Division.
Even as the small car drove, it was stopped by two patrol officers.
"Hello, ma'am. Please show your driver's license."
Yuzuki: "..."
