When Mikoto threw up on , she turned away and continued vomiting. She threw up a few more tis before sitting on the ground, leaning her back against the wall. I walked over and moved her hair away from her face.
"What's wrong? I've never felt like this before. Am I sick?" Mikoto asked as she spat, trying to get rid of the bad taste in her mouth.
"You probably ate sothing spoiled. It's okay." I crouched down and patted her back. I knew why she was vomiting, but of course, I wasn't going to tell her. I'll let her figure it out on her own, just like Hestia.
I wonder how long it will take.
Knowing Mikoto, she'll only realize she's pregnant when her belly gets really big.
"I guess we'll have to cancel training," I said, smiling bitterly. However, Mikoto widened her eyes and stared at .
"No! I'm fine! I already feel better!" Mikoto stood up and wiped her mouth. After that, she started swinging her sword to prove she was okay. I chuckled.
"Are you sure? Training is going to be pretty intense."
"Yes, I'm fine! But…" Mikoto looked at my shirt, completely covered in vomit.
"First, I should probably change my clothes, right?"
"Good thing we didn't go too deep."
I left the dungeon with Mikoto, and everyone was staring at . They were all looking at the huge stain on my shirt. The sll wasn't pleasant either. Mikoto felt guilty.
"I'm sorry."
"It's okay, it wasn't your fault." I ruffled her hair and walked with Mikoto straight to the mansion. I guess from now on, I should start carrying spare clothes in my inventory in case sothing unexpected happens.
When I entered the mansion and Hestia saw the stain on my shirt and the awful sll, she didn't want to co near .
"What happened to you?" she asked while covering her nose.
For so reason, Mikoto's vomit had an extrely strong and unpleasant sll.
Embarrassed, Mikoto's face turned red, and she avoided looking Hestia in the eyes.
"An accident. Mikoto, stay here and talk with Hestia while I take a bath."
"Ah… Alright."
I ran to my room and took a quick shower. After changing into clean clothes, I placed so extra outfits in my inventory and went downstairs. Mikoto and Hestia were sitting on the couch, chatting.
They seed to be getting along well.
Cough… Cough… I cleared my throat to get their attention. "You two seem to be having fun. What are you talking about?"
"Oh, just random things," Hestia replied.
"You were talking about , weren't you?"
"Not everything is about you, you know?"
"I'm just kidding." I smiled at them. "Do you want to keep talking, or do you want to go to the dungeon? We can stay here today if you prefer. I can cook sothing for us."
"You can cook!?" Mikoto asked, surprised.
"Luan is an amazing cook," Hestia nodded proudly.
"Then I want to stay! I want to try your food!"
I smiled bitterly. I wanted to have so fun and get my body moving, but I guess it's fine. Mikoto doesn't look too well anyway. She was a little pale and shivering slightly.
She vomited a lot. She must have an empty stomach.
"Alright, I'll cook for us today. What do you like to eat? at? Potatoes? Pasta?"
"Anything is fine."
"Oh, I'm in the mood for your pasta," Hestia, unlike Mikoto, made a suggestion.
Well, I guess I'll make pasta then.

Since we didn't have anything to cook at ho, I went out to buy so ingredients with Mikoto. After half an hour, we were back. Mikoto and Hestia stayed in the living room while I went to the kitchen to prepare the food.
I bought pasta, tomatoes, bell peppers, various spices, three different types of at, and so fruits to make fresh juice.
Since there wasn't a juice machine like in my original world, I had to do everything by hand. It was easier than I expected. After cooking the pasta, I made a tomato sauce and seasoned it well.
I added one type of at to the sauce—it was enough.
Then, I placed the pasta in a pot and poured the bolognese-like sauce over it. Carefully, I sprinkled so fresh green leaves on top. The vendor said they had a strange na, but they tasted very similar to chives.
Once everything was ready, I carried the large pot of pasta to the dining room.
I didn't make a fancy presentation, but the sll was phenonal. Even I felt hungry.
Hestia and Mikoto slled the food and rushed to the dining room.
"Wow, it slls so good!" Mikoto exclaid.
"Doesn't it? Luan always seasons the food really well. I've tried to do it like him several tis, but it always turns out either too salty or tasteless."
"If you want, I can teach you how to cook," I said while setting the table.
"I'd love that~~" Hestia replied as she sat down.
After placing the plates, I sat beside Hestia, and Mikoto sat across from . Her eyes sparkled as she stared at the pasta.
She's drooling!
I couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahaha, relax, I'll serve you in a second."
"Sorry, I'm just really hungry," Mikoto laughed, embarrassed.
I placed a generous portion of pasta on her plate and Hestia's, but only a small amount on mine. I wasn't very hungry. Once everything was served, we ate while chatting.
Hestia was very curious about our training, so she asked Mikoto a lot of questions.
At one point, Mikoto looked at , silently pleading for help.
I decided to stay quiet.
"You two just trained, right?" Hestia asked, intrigued.
I smiled and remained silent, while Mikoto beca incredibly flustered, her face turning as red as a ripe tomato.
She's terrible at pretending nothing happened.
