The warm light spread all over her body, and the pain on her body was fading at an incredible speed, even as an ordinary person who didn't know anything about magic, Emma's mother instantly realized that the priestess in front of her, who claimed to be [Emma's friend], was definitely not an ordinary person. Having worked as a maid for a time in a wealthy family, she had seen firsthand the process by which priests treated the heads of their families. However, compared to the healing technique that the priest had just performed, the effect was too great, and in such a short period of time, the disease he had was cured as if it had never happened, and it was absolutely impossible to do it without a certain strength.

Thank you so much, good priest!" Emma's mother got up from the bed and tried to take Lu Jiu's hands, despite being a little weak.

Wagging her big tail, Lu Jiu, who found Emma's mother wanting to get out of bed, quickly came to the bedside, "Auntie, it's okay for you to lie down, I'm good friends with little Emma, so forget about thanking or something." ”

&Yes..."

Just when Emma's mother was about to say something, Lu Jiu's two golden ears twitched, and she blinked her big purple smart eyes and said, "By the way, Auntie, do you still have rice at home?"

& It seems that there is still a little bit left..."

"After thinking for a moment, Lu Jiu beckoned to the Divine Crack to come over and help take care of Emma's mother, then got up and walked over to the stove.

In this small house, there is actually no distinction between bedroom and kitchen, so Lu Jiu's movements also fall very clearly in Emma's mother's eyes.

I saw the appearance of Lu Jiu washing rice. Emma's mother, who was still lying on the bed, excitedly grabbed her cracked hands beside the bed, "Oops, this... How embarrassing is that. As the host, he let the priestess, who was a guest, cook for herself..."

&Relation~" gently patted the back of Emma's mother's hand. Shen Crack smiled, "Lu Jiu's cooking skills are still quite good~"

After about ten minutes, a sweet smell spread in the space of less than thirty square meters.

Due to the limited number of ingredients, Lu Jiu simply used the little rice and half of the corn left to make a small pot of polenta, but fortunately, with the cooking know-how taught by Asuna herself, Lu Jiu was still very confident in this small pot of polenta.

And by Lu Jiu's side, little Emma was holding a small notebook and completely recorded Lu Jiu's method of cooking porridge just now. After learning that Lu Jiu is not only kind-hearted but also good at cooking, the little guy's admiration for her becomes more and more uncontrollable.

Looking at the little one's eager expression, Lu Jiu scooped a small spoonful of polenta. After blowing cool, he handed it to Emma's mouth, "Come, taste it!"

& unequivocally, Emma's tiny mouth took the spoon in one gulp.

&Woooooooooo I've eaten such delicious food~"

Squatted down and pinched Emma's little face, Lu Jiu couldn't help grinning, "Hehe, didn't little Emma record all the recipes just now? You can also try to make it yourself in the future~"

Let little Emma make a guinea pig, and after confirming that there is no problem with the taste, Lujiu leaves the polenta in the pot in two bowls, one large and one small.

Looking at the satisfied look of the mother and daughter, Lu Jiu nodded with satisfaction and glanced at the sky outside the window.

The entire sacred mountain is covered in the glow of the setting sun. A gorgeous coat was draped over the thick snow.

>> Emma and Auntie, it's not too early, and it's almost time to go back~"

&Yes. Miss Priesthood... Such a great kindness..."

&Relationship~" interrupted Emma's mother, and Lu Jiu pointed at little Emma, "I have a knight friend who is getting married recently, and the family doesn't seem to have enough manpower." If you don't mind, I can introduce the little guy to his house to be a maid~"

& servant?"

&Little Emma is already so capable at such a young age, I believe she can do better than many adults~ As for my friend's character. I can also vouch for it~"

&I'm sorry for you... Lord Rujiu!" I don't know if it was because of gratitude to Lujiu or for other reasons, Emma's mother even changed her name to Lujiu.

Why, little Emma will come to me at the foot of the sacred mountain three days later, that is, on the day the celebration officially begins? ”

& Thank you so much..."

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After briefly telling little Emma some details of taking care of her mother's life, the four of them leave the touching room.

The hardships in this world are far from being as simple as they imagined. Even in Jerusalem there are people in such difficult circumstances, let alone those remote areas.

However, Lu Jiu did not give up on her ideals because of this, and she believed that as long as people work together, they can one day change the status quo.

& Heart!"

The transparent greatsword flicked off a burst of arrows from somewhere, and in just a second, Tolia, Godcrack, and Shinnu drew their weapons and cautiously looked in the direction they were coming from. The only thing who didn't figure out the situation was Lu Jiu, who was still in a daze.

&As if you were the guy who killed the [Ghost]... It was so easy to block my arrow. ”

Holding a longbow made of bones, a man dressed in a green leather coat jumped off the roof of a house and said nonchalantly.

&Be named, my sword, don't slay the nameless!" Taking a step forward, Tolia clenched the invisible sword in her hand and looked at the man with momentum.

&What an easy lion~" Putting away the longbow, the man waved his hand, "But don't be so nervous, I'm just coming over to see what kind of guy has replaced [Ghost], and I don't mean to do it." ”

& May I ask which one is stronger in the excavator major?

& My roommate has a cat in the dormitory, it's scary!

&&I'm going to go out~ It's just a very simple check on the side, if there are typos, please forgive me~ (To be continued......)
