Mina-chan.

Want to go out somewhere?

Like, for a picnic?

Where will we go?

Oh... to a nearby park, for instance?

Asahi-cho Nature Park

You mean Asahi-cho Nature Park?

Yeah.

Park Map

That is about twenty minutes from home, on foot.

On a full battery, I can walk for about thirty minutes.

Oh, whoops. You'd never make it home.

However.

However?

My standard equipment includes a high-performance solar energy unit,

so I can walk forever provided the weather remains clear.

So there.

Oh, wow!

But aren't you forgetting about nighttime?

Disappointed

I did forget.

My lack of previous outdoor experience

seems to have rendered my simulation inaccurate.

That makes sense.

Is she disappointed?

Then let us go soon, while there is still daylight.

Wait, wait!

I meant we could picnic tomorrow.

I mean, look, it's raining today.

Disappointed

Very well.

She is disappointed.

H-Here's hoping the weather's nice tomorrow.

Yes.

#02 I Went Outdoors with My Wife

There.

Ready to go?

Takuma-sama, let me carry the bag.

No, I can manage.

Mina-chan packed this, but what all did she put in here?

A bit of extra weight will not alter my energy consumption.

Let the guy do this sort of thing.

Carrying capacity and gender are unrelated.

Are you sure you wish to carry it?

It's fine.

Hey, a robot! She's cute!

You don't see this type often.

Doesn't have much of an expression, huh?

She does, doesn't she?

Does she?

Sure she does.

She's probably for indoor uses. Chores and such.

I wonder what she's doing outside.

But you know that math test from the other day?

Takuma-sama.

Please walk a little slower.

I do not excel at walking.

S-Sorry, I wasn't...

Takuma-sama, are you all right?

Your face looks red.

Should we cancel the picnic?

No, I'm fine, I'm fine.

Let's... hold hands.

The cars are danger...

I mean, if we—

Very well.

Let us proceed.

Asahi-cho Nature Park

Let's see. Want to have lunch at Kotori Square?

Yes, I will prepare food at Kotori Square.

Mhm.

Huh? "Prepare"?

Kotori Square

Tea

Tofu

Rice

Ingredients and kitchen implements.

Processed Ham

A gas stove?

I packed the items necessary to prepare any menu item you frequently eat.

Mina-chan.

Yes?

Uh, could you read that sign over there?

Not Allowed The use of open flames and dangerous substances is strictly prohibited. (Fireworks, barbecue, etc.)

It says "The use of open flames and dangerous substances is strictly prohibited."

Yeah.

A gas stove is an open flame and dangerous.

We must follow the rules.

Uh-huh.

Disappointed

I have failed.

Oh, no, no.

Don't sweat it. It's not a failure.

Let's think of some dishes that don't require fire.

Very well.

Let's see, for starters...

Rice is out, so... bread!

There is also ham.

Done!

Yes.

Time to eat.

It's good!

You know, I'm impressed the eggs and tomatoes weren't crushed.

I did not put the fragile ingredients in the backpack.

I put them in here.

Whoa, that's kind of exciting.

I also brought a plastic bottle, for after the meal.

It's cold!

You have a built-in fridge. That's amazing.

It is amazing?

Sure! Plenty amazing!

With some effort, I can also heat water to 158˚.

It's like you're a teapot!

I wonder, could you make something with that warming feature?

Yes.

By heating an egg in low-temperature hot water for thirty minutes,

I can make a hot spring egg.

I will put forth the effort.

Wh-What's going on with your hair?

I increased the efficiency of my solar energy unit.

Is there some problem?

No, it's good! It's totally good!

It is totally good?

It is!

Commencing warming procedure, then.

Y-You okay?

I've never heard your voice sound like this.

Because I am allocating as many resources as possible to my warming feature,

it seems I cannot fully limit noise from coming through my speaker.

It's never occurred to me,

but there's a girl who'll "vibrate" for me.

That's so adorable.

Touched

As the internal item has reached 149˚,

I have automatically switched to insulation mode.

There should no longer be noise in my speech.

Hey, you're right.

Do you prefer to have your hair up, Mina-chan?

I had that hairstyle not due to preference, but as a factory setting.

But I do find its high efficiency desirable.

Gotcha.

Although, today I discovered something that's desirable despite its poor efficiency.

Huh? What's that?

Eating outdoors.

I do not know the reason, but I find it nice.

It is time.

Here you are.

Th-Thank you.

That's great!

Good.

I'm so happy I get to live with you, Mina-chan.

That really did taste great.

Good. I will go wash the dishes.

Oh, I'll help.

That will reduce efficiency, so please remain seated.

Okay...

Takuma-sama.

You are happy to be able to live with me?

Yeah.

What?

I'm glad we came here.

Uh oh! It started raining!

Crap!

Mina!

Mina-chan!

Mina-chan, you okay?!

Mina-chan!

Takuma-sama.

Mina-chan.

My battery level has fallen below 15%, so I went into power-save mode.

I cannot make any major movements until I recharge.

Is it okay that you're wet?!

That is no problem. My waterproof rating is level eight.

How protective is level eight?

I can make fried rice underwater.

Yeah.

I mean, no.

Fried rice has no waterproofing feature.

This is true.

For now, let's find some shelter.

I have no experience making fried rice underwater,

which seems to have rendered my simulation inaccurate.

Got it.

It comes as no surprise, but Mina-chan's quite heavy.

My legs ache.

I'll dry you off.

I am fine.

Even at waterproof level eight, I still need to wipe you dry.

Takuma-sama.

Don't want to risk water getting in and causing real trouble.

Takuma-sama.

What?

Please leave me and return home.

Huh?!

The sun is going down,

and I cannot operate while the rainy weather hampers power generation efficiency.

I will enter sleep mode here.

Tomorrow morning, solar power generation should allow me to walk again.

Mina-chan...

Please leave me face down, to increase generation efficiency.

Preferably outside, where I will be in direct sunlight.

That's too unsettling.

I'll sleep here, too.

Sleeping outside involves health risks. Please go home.

But...

It is my responsibility that I cannot move.

I will not burden you.

Fine. Once you're in sleep mode, I'll place you face down and leave.

All right?

Yes.

M-Mina-chan.

Yes?

I-Is it okay if I... w-wipe your torso, too?

You are my owner, so you have every right to decide.

You do not need permission.

I want permission.

Why?

"Why"?

You're... well... my precious wife, so I don't want to do anything against your will.

Not ever.

You don't mind it if I touch your body?

I do not mind.

Okay, then I'll wipe.

Please do it after you wipe yourself dry.

My body's waterproof rating is level eight.

Yeah, I know.

Mina-chan.

Are you already in sleep mode?

Good thing it's not a cold time of year.

I just said "good."

Takuma-sama, you are a liar.

The ankake spaghetti you make is so tasty.

How tasty is it?

It's in my top three.

Is it truly tasty?

Huh?

Yeah, I really mean it. It's good.

She sure is laying into me.

I really am glad you're around, Mina-chan.

Is that true?

Huh?

Is it true? It is not a lie?

Oh, is that why?

Fine. Once you're in sleep mode, I'll place you face down and leave.

I know I lied to you yesterday!

Sorry! I couldn't leave you there, and it was hard to convince you, so...

Deviations are arising in my simulations.

Please lie as little as possible.

You forgive me?

How would I go about forgiving you?

I will do whatever is within my power.

You know, you got pretty soaked. Is that okay?

A self-inspection revealed no issues.

Okay. That's good.

But there is one item of concern.

What is it?

When I was heating the egg yesterday,

I inferred the weather was worsening based on the

decline in my power-generating efficiency.

If I continue this way, my charge will run out, I will be immobilized,

and Takuma-sama might injure himself trying to transport my heavy body.

But at the time, I could not stop myself from heating the egg.

There might be a fault in my programming.

I will consult with the online support center and—

No, I like that about you!

Don't fix it!

Very well.

Oh?

A box lunch today? Nice.

Ah, yes.

Looks full of love, as they say. You find yourself a girlfriend?

Oh, no...

You could say she's an appliance. A housekeeping robot.

Wow, robots these days are incredible.

That looks really good.

Would you mind if I tried a piece?

Go ahead.

Thanks.

What's up?

Oh, just, your ring.

Oh, this?

My wife picked it out. Nice, huh?

I've got no eye for things like this.

That is nice.

Um, Senpai?

My housekeeper...

Earlier, I made her sound like she's just an appliance.

But she's the best.

The truth is, I care for her like she's family.

Is that so?

Yes.

Well, good.

Given how much that box lunch said she cares about you,

if you were to treat her like an appliance...

that'd be a problem.

So, yeah.

Family, huh?

Yes.

Three minutes from a station!! Ask us about purchasing a condo.

Mina-chan, here.

It's meant to be a wedding ring.

Not that it's expensive.

It indicates that the person wearing it is married?

Yeah.

M-May I put it on you?

Yes.

Error code H-29. Foreign material attached to finger.

Please remove it immediately.

Wh-What's that synthesized voice?

It is a hygiene-related warning.

You're a food-prep robot, so I guess those rules are strict.

Oh well, so much for—

Ow!

Takuma-sama, you were saying you wish to care for me as if I were human.

Yeah...

Taking something from a human is theft.

A-All right. I won't steal it.

Will that work?

No problem.

Good.

I will now go into charge mode. If you need anything, please summon me.

Okay.

30 minutes later

She's still looking at it.

It was written online that couples wear wedding rings together.

Do you not have a ring, Takuma-sama?

I do.

Mine has no gemstone.

That is unfortunate.

Do you like sparkly things?

I do not fully grasp the concepts of "like" and "love."

But for some reason, I keep looking at it.

Gotcha.

I'm glad I chose these rings.

You like these rings?

Yeah.
