Heroes From Other Worlds Who Don't Like To Fight

Chapter 17: Sweet Tea

Souma realized that they had not come to enjoy this sight, after 10 minutes had passed they started looking for the plants they wanted.

The plants live well in height but that does not mean they are easy to find or very large in number, but vice versa.

Souma searched among the bushes while Risela and Anna searched on the sidelines of the high cliffs.

The plant itself is only 30 cm tall with dark green leaves, there are no flowers or features so significant about it, if only at a glance it even looks like a wild grass.

Only one way to tell the difference is to take one leaf and then chew it in the mouth, if it tastes sweet then that is the plant in question.

Souma managed to find one after trying to chew some bitter leaves earlier. He had only found one plant but it was enough to make a few cups of tea while taking it home.

He got up and walked over to check on Risela and Anna, both of whom seemed to have only gotten one of them by day.

Risela sighed softly while sitting on the rock while Anna lay on her back.

"It's exhausting, I'd be disappointed if it doesn't taste good" Risela said, while Anna didn't mind, she obviously enjoyed it more.

"For me three is more than enough, let's go back."

"Souma, carry me down."

"Come down by yourself."

"But I can't move my legs anymore."

"I am too."

"Then let's rest here until you recover."

"Then what about the tea leaves?" ask Anna.

"One plant we're going to make tea, while the two you guys are going to get we're going to plant in a flower pot so we don't have to look here anymore."

Anna and Risela looked at Souma with sparkling eyes.

"I just realized it but it turned out that Souma was smart."

"I feel that way too."

"You guys are even mocking me."

"Are you going to punish me?"

Though hesitating he ended up using his hands to slap her.

"... Haha."

"What is this so-called adult play in the human world?"

"No, just don't let you go along," Souma confirmed that to the curious Anna before she arranged the small stone into a furnace and placed a small teapot on top of it.

He put in the foliage he had previously obtained then used water magic and let it boil for a few minutes before pouring it into each cup to serve.

"Rissell."

"Thank you."

"And so is Anna."

"Thank you."

The two sipped tea simultaneously and instantly their faces looked more relaxed and refreshed.

Anna first expressed her opinion before being followed by Risela.

"It tastes sweet as if mixed with honey."

"That's true, but not too sweet also makes the person who drinks it will not be enough with one glass."

"I make a lot of it so drink it whole."

"Good."

Souma only smiled afterwards, during his life this might be the first time he could go with someone just to spend some time together.

At first glance he recalled the goddess who had sent him to various worlds, his face was probably something he could not forget.

The beauty and charm that comes from a flower that no one can touch is something that can describe it.

Souma wondered if he would be disappointed in her or angry when he found out Souma instead preferred a path like this when he only needed to save one more world so that his wish was granted.

Thinking about it also won't find any answers in the end Souma just sat down while enjoying his tea quietly.
