Disappointing Teleportation Magic ~ Even Though The Movement Distance Is Only 1 Millimeter, I Will Rise Through Ingenuity ~ - Chapter 2.3

“Yuto, what did you do!”

“Huh, I don’t remember doing anything wrong…”

“Yesterday, the person in charge of cleaning was called to the kitchen first thing in the morning! Bring them here!”

“Oh, I’m sorry. Maybe I got carried away with cleaning too much…”

“Cleaned too much…? Oh, did you use teleportation magic?”

“Yes, because it was so dirty with soot and grease…”

“I see… well, you’ll understand when you go.”

According to the supervisor, the kitchen, where the royal and noble stomachs are entrusted, seems to have a higher status than the miscellaneous workers.

Even to the seemingly low-ranking cooks, the supervisor spoke humbly.

“Chef! The supervisor of the miscellaneous workers is here!”

“Oh, I’m coming now. Please wait there!”

“Please wait a moment.”

“Yes…”

Despite being greeted with a smile by the cook, the supervisor was captivated by the state of the kitchen.

Well, seeing the cleaned kitchen, it’s understandable.

“Yuto… isn’t this going a bit too far?”

“Yeah… I’m sorry.”

“I’m not saying you’ll get complaints, but it’s about how to handle things from now on.”

“If I take care of it once every ten days or so, would that be okay?”

“Well, I guess that’s the only option.”

Unlike modern Japan, there aren’t powerful detergents here, so the grease stuck to the walls can’t be removed.

As for the dishes, they seem to be washed with soap made from plant skins, but we can’t use it for cleaning because the amount available is limited.

Although I replied that I was coming, the head chef never showed up.

It must be a busy time preparing breakfast for the royals, as shouts could be heard, just like yesterday.

While it’s not like we’ll receive complaints, the supervisor, still uneasy, sat on the wooden crate where the cleaning staff waited, repeatedly placing his hand on his stomach.

He may act arrogantly towards us, but it seems he’s weak when it comes to those above him in rank.

In the end, the head chef didn’t show up until after all the preparations for breakfast for the royals were done.

While waiting, trying to relieve my sleepiness even a little, I squatted down next to the wooden crate where the supervisor was sitting, leaned against the wall, and dozed off, only to be awakened by a blow to the head.

“You idiot, you’re not sleeping!”

“Oh, don’t worry about it, don’t worry about it. You’re probably tired from cleaning last night.”

“I’m sorry.”

The middle-aged man who kicked me awake last night responded in a relaxed manner to the supervisor who bowed deeply.

“Come with me.”

The head chef invited the supervisor and me to the chef’s waiting room.

This seemed to be an unusual response, as the supervisor’s eyes widened in surprise.

When we entered the waiting room, the head chef instructed his subordinate to bring tea and sat across from us at the reception table.

“You were in charge of cleaning last night, right? Can you tell me your name?”

“Yes, I’m Yuto.”

“Udai, to be frank, can I have Yuto in the kitchen?”

“Well, that’s…”

Although he may have anticipated it to some extent, the supervisor’s expression turned sour upon hearing the head chef’s offer.

Since the cleaning method using teleportation magic was effective not only in the kitchen but also in other places, the supervisor probably didn’t want to let me go as a miscellaneous worker.

“Hahaha… no, sorry, sorry. I just said it knowing it would be impossible.”

“Head chef… please spare him.”

“No, I’m sorry. I knew we couldn’t let go of Yuto, especially after seeing how clean the kitchen was this morning, but I still truly want to recruit him. Honestly, when I saw the kitchen this morning, I almost collapsed.”

It’s a natural reaction if the walls and floor were so dirty that you couldn’t tell their original color, but they became sparkling clean overnight.

In the end, as a result of negotiations between the head chef and the supervisor, it was decided that I would be in charge of cleaning the kitchen once every ten days.

And with the recognition from the head chef, other requests began to come in.
