I started putting in the equipment that I had taken out.
Andras sneaked up to me and looked at the items I had brought.
“Sihyeon, you brought a lot of other things besides the equipment with which you took pictures, right?”
“Oh… These are the things I ordered while I was buying them on the Internet.”
I finished organizing the equipment and put things that I hadn’t taken out yet on the table.
Colored pencils for coloring, writing tools and notebooks for studying, and some books.
Speranza had already taken out a colored pencil on the table and started coloring.
Andras asked, pointing to the books I had put up.
“Sihyeon, what are these books about?”
“It’s a book that tells you how to take pictures. I’m going to learn a little bit as a hobby.”
“Senior, couldn’t you just put that camera where you want to take the picture?”
“You can take pictures like that. But, there are a lot of things to study if I want to take more cool pictures. You have to pay attention to the composition and exposure of the light according to the situation, and you have to use the functional parts of the camera.”
Alfred lost interest in hearing the difficult explanation, but Andras looked at the camera and the book with an interesting look.
“Do you have any hobbies, Andras? Do Demons have hobbies?”
Speranza, who was coloring, was the first to respond to my question.
“Hobby? Papa, what’s a hobby?”
“Um… Something you don’t do as a job, but you do because it’s really fun?”
Speranza frowned slightly because it was a little difficult for her to comprehend.
I added a little explanation to help her understand.
“Speranza, you listen to Yoon Jiwoon’s song a lot these days with the audio that papa bought you, right? Then listening to music is Speranza’s hobby.”
Speranza, who heard the explanation, thought about something and replied with a big smile.
“Then playing with Papa, Akum, Gyuri, and sister Miri is also my hobby!”
It’s a little different from the usual hobby, but I didn’t force myself to point out the wrong part.
Well, everything is a hobby for children who are always full of things they want to do.
“My hobby is also playing with my sweet little girl.”
“Hehe!”
Speranza smiled pleasantly and hugged me.
I then turned my gaze to the person standing next to me.
Alfred replied with an ambiguous expression.
“I don’t think I have any hobbies. Since I was young, when I had time, I’ve been training.”
“Didn’t you ever want to do anything as a hobby?”
“Um… I don’t think I had much time. Even if I did, all I did was repair my swords?”
Alfred seemed to have spent all his life with the sword.
This time, I turned to Kaneff.
“Me?”
“Yes, does Boss have any hobbies?”
“I’m just like… drinking beer and taking a nap at home?… Can you call that a hobby?”
His answer amazed me, more than Speranza’s answer, in a bad way.
I lost my words at his twisted answer.
Are there really no Demons with normal hobbies?
I looked at Andras with last hope.
“What about Andras?”
“I don’t have anything special either. Like the last outing, I like to design and produce what I think is necessary. Recently, I sometimes spend my time studying the things Sihyeon brings.”
“Oh!”
I was slightly impressed by the first plausible hobby activity.
“Oh! And I’m having a great time hosting classes for Sihyeon and Speranza. It’s a hobby in a way, right?”
I nodded with satisfaction.
A hobby that is hundreds times more better than drinking beer and taking a nap…
“By the way, Sihyeon’s studies on Demon language are a little slow these days?… I know you’re busy, but shouldn’t you do what you have to do? I’ve been organizing what Sihyeon is lacking today, so we’ll look into it together in today’s class later.”
Maybe it’s better to just drink beer and take a nap?
I tried to avoid Andras’s eyes and turned to the last person, Lia.
“ Does Lia have any hobbies?”
“I… I like….”
She looked at our faces with embarrassment.
Everyone waited for her next word with a curious look.
“Cooking……It’s fun to do.”
As soon as the word cooking came out of Lia’s mouth, Andras and Kaneff quickly hardened.
Only Alfred, who didn’t know the situation yet, looked puzzled.
Lia also looked sullen as she looked at our reaction.
I felt very sorry for her, to be not able to do what she likes.
I took out one of the books I had bought.
Then I approached the discouraged Lia and talked to her.
“Lia. I promised you last time, right?”
“What? What… promise….”
“I said I’d help you practice cooking when I got back from my vacation. Don’t you remember?”
I picked up the book I had and showed it to her.
“Oh…”
“Huh?!”
“Sihyeon, you don’t have to?”
I heard a sound of astonishment from Andras and Kaneff, but I ignored them and continued to talk to Lia, who looked surprised.
“What do you think? Would you like to practice cooking together for lunch today?”
“I think it’ll only cause you trouble again…”
“It’s okay if you can’t. You can improve as you learn. And you said it’s something you like. If it’s something you like, other people will cheer for you.”
“Sihyeon…”
Lia’s eyes quickly became teary because of the piled-up emotions about cooking in her heart.
“You’ll try, won’t you?”
“Yes… I’ll do my best to meet Sihyeon’s expectations.”
Lia showed her motivation by clenching her fists.
Lia and I entered the kitchen with our aprons.
