On the way home that day, Kiriha and I stopped by the supermarket to buy dinner.
As I pushed the cart and walked behind her, she looked back at me with a sweet smile.
“Hey honey, it’s kind of like newlywed life when we do this.”
“Don’t say embarrassing things. Oh, look at that.”
When I went to the meat section, I found a variety of unusual items.
The chicken, pork, and beef sections had been cut in half. Filling the empty display shelves were venison, wild boar, Reeves’s muntjac meat, and civet meat.
“That’s the one that was guided by Shisae’s ability. What do you think, honey? Shall I make gingerbread with wild boar meat?”
“Right, let’s do a comparison between wild boar and pork. What’s this one?”
Further down the cart, raccoon meat was sold, but with a slightly different flavor.
It was a pack of meat for barbecue, which had already been cut into small pieces and dipped in a thick sauce.
“Why isn’t this one for cooking?”
“Raccoons are omnivores, and I think they have a strong smell. I think that’s why they marinate them in garlic and ginger sauce to remove the smell. Well, I just looked it up, and it seems to be a common food in North America. Here.”
Kiriha unfolded the MR screen and operated it, then flipped it to show the search screen.
“Hmmm, Native Americans used to eat it normally.”
“Well, honey, let’s eat wild boar today, venison tomorrow, and Reeves’s muntjac, civet, and raccoon the day after tomorrow, and so on.”
“Well, since we’re here, let’s do that.”
“OK, let’s start with wild boar today.”
With a wink, Kiriha put 400 grams of wild boar meat in the cart.
The next stop was the vegetable section, which had also changed considerably.
Instead of vegetables, fruits were more conspicuous.
I was surprised to see many tropical fruits such as mangoes, papayas, and dragon fruits.
In consideration of the elderly who were not wearing devices, the price tag was a physical sticker, while a digital pop-up was floating above the product on the MR label, saying “Plenty of vitamins” and “Fruits are a tasty way to make up for lack of vegetables”.
This must be the government’s strategy to make up for the insufficient supply of vegetables with fruits, as Director Sayuri mentioned.
I felt like I was being cheated.
“Mangosteen, lychee, pomegranate, all fruits I’ve never tasted before”
“Look Honey, I think that royal jelly supplement may be the one I made.”
Kiriha proudly showed them off.
“…Right.”
“It’s amazing how much Japan has changed in the last half month.”
“Ah….it’s because you guys changed it with your supernatural powers.”
Due to the scandals of the Prime Minister and the Bank of Japan Governor, Japan went into financial ruin and the Japanese Yen lost credibility.
Because of this, Japan became unable to import goods, even though Japan was a major importer.
It was obvious that the Japanese people would go bankrupt due to shortages of metals, food, and clothing.
But thanks to the efforts of Miina and Shisae, they succeeded in supplying metals, food, and clothing.
And other people with abilities were also active in their respective fields.
The combat team’s ability was to protect dignitaries, Kiriha’s royal jelly was traded for millions of dollars.
She’s my bodyguard, but she made more money than I do.
–I’ve been dating normally up until now, but everyone is so much more active than I am. Maybe I’m the only one who’s useless.
At that moment such a dark feeling welled up in my heart, Kiriha looked into my face.
“Ah, it’s nothing. Come on, let’s go buy the seasoning we’re missing.”
“Okay, but let me know if there’s anything bothering you. I’m Honey’s girlfriend after all.”
“I’m sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable.”
“No problem.”
Kiriha’s chest puffed out with happiness.
–She, if I were to marry Kiriha like this, it would be like a goal-line between a big-name actress and her manager.
The wife would make tens of billions of dollars a year, and the husband would be the exclusive chauffeur who takes her home and picks her up. With this image in my mind, I pushed the cart with heavy steps.
***
The next day at lunchtime.
I teleported back to the official residence, took out Kiriha’s homemade lunch from the refrigerator, heated it in the microwave, and teleported back to the classroom again.
“Hey, Kiriha, thanks again for the food.”
“Thanks for eating my food today, too.”
Despite being in the position of taking the time and effort to make her lunch every morning, Kiriha gave a spoiled smile.
Apparently, she liked to have someone she liked to eat her home-cooked food.
“Oh, it’s Miine, yahoo”
followed Kiriha’s gaze and saw Miine entering through the open door of the classroom with her lunch in her hand.
“I’m here.”
“Yo.”
I greeted her lightly, flipping the desk of Kiriha, who was sitting next to me, and the desk behind me (Bando’s), which had been empty for the past week, to join them together.
“I see you’re having lunch with your loving wife again today. Kiriha-san, you will make a good wife in the future.”
“’Well, I guess so. I’ve already captured Honey’s stomach.”
Kiriha proudly arched her back and flaunted her confidence.
“Indeed, Kiriha’s lunches are so good even the rice is good. The brand of rice is the same as the rice we buy in my home.”
“If you put a tablespoon of honey in two cups of rice, it makes the rice fluffy.”
“It’s physically filled with love.”
“What’s with the power words?”
“But Kiriha-san, no matter how much you like Honey-kun, you must not mix addictive poisons.”
“… no, I didn’t mix it.”
“What’s the pause?”
“What do you think?”
I asked with a straight face, and the corners of Kiriba’s mouth turned up in a grin, bothering me.
Miine raised her eyebrows and laughed bitterly.
“Honey-kun, it looks like she’ll be laid on the hips(+) in the future …”
“I will resist with all my might.”
I made a clenched fist to express my intention, but when I imagined being laid on Kiriha’s sexy hip line, it wasn’t too bad.
“I know, right? But Honey loves boobs more than hips.”
“It doesn’t mean that!”
I was strangely flustered, probably because I had been imagining sexually until just before.
