Chương 123: Setting up the Raid

[Flame Throw]

The crusted pot glowed slightly as green flames licked at the insides. Nix picked up the scraper and continued cleaning. "Can't leave a pot on the fire all night and expect things are just going to wash off." He rinsed it off and grabbed for the next one.

The pot cleaner kept working diligently, after finishing off the last one he moved on to the much easier stack of dishes.

"I do like a man in suds." Hyai's voice spoke from the entryway. She was dressed in her work uniform, even though it was still very early.

Nix glanced up from his work at the sink. "Hmm, food for thought."

Hyai moved beside him, pausing long enough to kiss the back of his neck, a clear exception to her strict rule about public displays of affection. "I'll rinse hun."

Between the two of them, they finished the rest of the party clean-up in a relatively short amount of time. Hyai made them both breakfast and they enjoyed some quiet conversation at the small table in the kitchen.
