Re:Zero -Starting Life in Zero

Chapter 23 Breakfast or the Elf: Which Tastes Better?

Rem put down the milk jug she was holding and walked towards the trio.

Natsuki Subaru was terrified and collapsed to the ground, constantly moving backward.

"What are you doing? Don't come any closer, Green! Quick... quick, save me!"

Just as Green was about to react, he saw Ram shake his head at him, signaling him not to move for the time being.

Rem didn't get completely close to Subaru Natsuki; she stopped when she was only two or three meters away.

She pressed her hands against the hem of her skirt and bowed to Subaru Natsuki.

"I'm sorry, Subaru, Rem shouldn't have been so impulsive."

Ram explained to her yesterday that Roswaal's order was to observe secretly and not to act rashly, and that the possibility of Subaru Natsuki being a cultist of witches was extremely small.

Even if I don't obey the clown's orders, I still have to listen to my sister.

Natsuki Subaru was relieved to see that Rem wasn't there to kill him.

From his perspective, being inexplicably suspected and hunted down was simply unacceptable.

Natsuki Subaru looked at Rem with disappointment and said:

"Rem, I was so confused last night. Why did you come to kill me? And what is this Witch Cult you're talking about? What is this miasma? Am I really not trustworthy at all?"

Even though Rem had mentally prepared herself, she still couldn't help but feel angry when she heard the words "Witch Cult".

Seeing that Rem was a little upset, Grimm quickly walked over to Ram and grabbed a bowl to scoop out a few spoonfuls of porridge.

"Hey, why are you talking so much? Come on, let's take it outside to eat."

After saying that, Green handed the bowl of porridge to Subaru Natsuki and quickly sent him away.

After getting rid of the trigger, Green came back, made himself a bowl, and started eating it while blowing on it.

Ram was speechless at Green's appalling eating habits.

"Shameless bastard! He bullied his sister yesterday, and today he dares to swagger around in front of his older sister. I really don't know what to say about him."

Green sipped his porridge with great pleasure, and his cold stomach finally began to warm up.

He scratched his head, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "I didn't mean to hurt Rem, I just wanted her to calm down."

After thinking it over, Green decided to apologize to Rem.

"I'm sorry, Rem. Is something bothering you? I do know a bit about medicine, so please feel free to tell me."

"It's alright, Grin-kun, please don't worry about it. Rem is the one who should apologize to you for causing you trouble last night."

The blue-haired maid, Nuonuo, bowed to Green before returning to her busy work.

Green felt very uncomfortable.

Rem, burdened by unresolved issues, looked rather forlorn.

I must find an opportunity to help her.

Lahm gave Green a disdainful look:

"Rem is too gentle. If Ram were treated like this, she would definitely punch you hard and then stomp on your face after you fall to the ground."

Green's eyes lit up, and he shamelessly moved closer to Ram.

"You're too kind, Ram. Now that you've talked about the reward, what's the punishment?"

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell into an eerie silence.

Beatrice frowned and slowly retreated to the doorway: "The mansion is no longer clean. Betty, you should go back to the forbidden library."

Ram choked for a while before finally speaking: "Your shamelessness has once again broken records with Ram. Rem, remember to throw away that bowl he drank from."

Rem nodded: "Big sister, Rem thinks it's better to burn it to ashes."

Seeing that everyone had regained their usual mood, Green finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Haha, Ram and Rem are definitely cuter like this."

Having figured out Green's purpose, Ram also showed a rare smile:

"Stop being so cheeky, Grin. The manor's food supplies are almost gone. Rem will need you to accompany her to a nearby village to buy some food after she's finished with her work."

Given Subaru's condition, he probably can't go.

Whenever Rem appeared in his field of vision, his legs would go weak, so it was good to leave him at the mansion to rest for a while.

"No problem, just call me when the time comes."

Green nodded and finished the entire bowl of oatmeal.

After stretching, he continued, "Why do I feel a little sleepy again?"

Sleeping on the floor yesterday was really uncomfortable, and the magic mirror kept me up in the middle of the night, so I didn't get much sleep.

"Ram is almost speechless about how Green is a creature who wants to sleep right after eating."

"While I don't want to question Lord Roswaal's decision, I still think that hiring you as a guard has completely crippled the manor's defense system."

Ram took the empty bowl from Green's hand, but instead of throwing it away, he put it into the dirty dish basket that was about to be washed.

"Lamu, be careful you won't be able to get married if you're so mean."

Green was starting to become immune to Ram's sharp tongue. He yawned as he walked out of the kitchen, looking for Subaru Natsuki.

We need to talk to this guy, otherwise Subaru Natsuki might live in constant fear.

Sigh, I'm still too kind-hearted; I can't bear to see my fellow villagers suffer.

Finally, Green found Subaru Natsuki in the corridor.

This guy was leaning against the windowsill, eating while sporting a perverted grin.

Before he even got close, Green heard Subaru Natsuki's outrageous statement.

"Ha! Emilia-tan's smile is definitely the best, haha, it's so delicious..."

After saying that, Natsuki Subaru picked up the bowl and took a big, boastful gulp.

"What the hell are you doing here... spying?"

With a shocked expression, Green slowly moved to Subaru Natsuki's side and followed his gaze downwards.

Before the morning mist had completely dissipated, Emilia tiptoed across the dew-covered grass carpet.

Her silver hair, like lingering snow forgotten by the moonlight, cascaded down as she crouched.

Those fainter specks of light, even fainter than fireflies, floated up from the cracks in the moss; they were all tiny sprites that had just awakened.

They followed Emilia's scent and danced around the girl.

"Ha...Lia, good morning."

When Puck emerged from Emilia's hair, yawning, the micro-sprites scattered like startled stars.

The glow carried by the little creatures cast long, thin comet-like tails on Emilia's silver hair.

This gave her entire silhouette a nebula-like, dissolving quality in the fog.

"She's so beautiful! Looking at Emilia-tan's beauty, I feel like I could eat a hundred more bowls of oatmeal!"

Subaru Natsuki stared wide-eyed, drool dripping from the corner of his mouth. Looking into his bowl, there wasn't a single grain of oatmeal left; it was so shiny it was practically reflecting light as he licked it.

Green hardened his resolve, his fist hardened, and there was absolutely no need to worry about this pervert.

"You fucking...you're doing this, aren't you? You were looking like you were living a life of misery in the kitchen just now, and now you're here looking for girls."

"Shh! Green, please don't disturb Emilia's morning exercise. Although I don't want to share this beautiful scenery with you, please keep your voice down!"

"Oh, right, Mr. Green, could you go and get me another serving of oatmeal?"

After saying that, Natsuki Subaru handed the bowl to Grimm, staring intently at Emilia without even turning his head.

Green slowly raised his head, revealing a murderous expression, and bared his teeth, saying, "You're still a seasoned gourmand, huh!"

Then, the veins on his arm bulged, and he clenched his fingers inward with all his might, crushing the porcelain bowl in his hand into pieces with a "crack".
