Let's Train Heroine

But currently, she was 10 years old. This meant that if he decided to build a bond, it would be more like that of a father or an elder brother. The chance of becoming her husband was gone.

It was unfortunate, but Lucan didn\'t care as long as he had a good bond with Maris that could benefit him in the future.

Lucan looked out of the window, and the sun was setting. It was time to close the temple.

"Maris, do you know how to cook?" Lucan asked.

As far as he knew, Maris should know how to cook and do all the housework.

"Yes," she nodded.

"Then, wait a minute," Lucan said. He went to the kitchen, took out many vegetables and a knife, came back, and gave them to Maris.

"Peel the vegetables. I\'ll go and close the temple," he said.

"Um... but," Maris was hesitant as she looked at him, not knowing how to say.

"Don\'t worry about your parents and house. From today, you can stay with me. I will talk to them. Or if you want, you can go back. I won\'t stop you," Lucan stepped aside to make way for Maris.

Maris looked down, her eyes filled with tears. She shook her head and grabbed the knife. "I\'ll peel the vegetables."

Lucan smiled, went out to close the temple doors, and locked them securely.

When he returned to the room, he saw that Maris was very skilled with the knife and could peel vegetables easily.

"You\'re good at that. Nice," Lucan patted her head. She smiled back at him and continued.

While she was peeling vegetables, Lucan looked at the meat.

"Maris, what do you eat on a daily basis?"

"I... I eat leftover food or raw vegetables, sometimes grass," she said.

Lucan crossed his arms. Should he make meat since she could digest anything, or should he make just vegetable soup to get her used to proper food before giving her meat?

After thinking, Lucan decided to make vegetable soup and rice because he was too lazy to make a meat dish.

He put rice in a pot and boiled it, also boiling water to make soup. Maris finished her work and walked over to him, handing him the peeled vegetables.

Lucan took the vegetables and saw that they were neatly peeled. He felt that he was still better than Maris, but she wasn\'t bad.

It took 10 minutes to make vegetable soup and rice. When he was done, he brought the dishes to the table. Behind him, Maris brought plates.

After giving food to Maris, she asked if he was sure she could eat. Lucan nodded, and she began to eat, devouring the food without caring about table manners.

As a priest, Lucan should have prayed before eating, but he never did that. He should also have cared about table manners, but he didn\'t.

Lucan looked at Maris and felt good that someone was eating his cooking. It had been a while since someone had been able to eat his cooking. Maris was such a lucky girl.

But he knew he had to teach her table manners for the future, though not like the teacher Maris had in the game.

In the game, when Maris was brought to the grand temple, she ate like this but was scolded by her teacher and the priest there. Then she went through strict training to learn manners.
