Note From Developer: I’m a big fan of Chinese web novels, but I often came across great stories with poor translations. That’s why I started this website! My goal is to make this the best web novel translation site out there. If you have any suggestions or feedback, feel free to reach out on Discord or Instagram.

The additional post on 12/25 is the next section: "Interlude: Party."
Humming a tune—hmm hmm hmm, hmm hmm hmm, hmm hmm hmm, h-hmm~
"Arisa feels sick."
"Are you okay~?"
Hmmph, how rude!
"I'm busy preparing for christmas."
"Chris?"
"Is it fun?"
Grrr. Unpleasant memories from the past flash through my mind... Calm down, Arisa. Today isn’t a christmas spent with the one you love. It’s not just the two of you, but it’s rare for the god of fortune to give such a service, so you have to enjoy it!
"It’s fun. Eating delicious food and playing with everyone."
"Same as usual~?"
"Every day is christmas!"
Well, that’s true, but it’s different.
Damn it, this bullet point magic is interfering with me!
"On christmas, there’s a person called Santa who wears a red outfit and delivers presents."
"Presents~?"
"It means gifts."
"Meat?!"
"Fried whale meat would be great!"
Ah, that was delicious, wasn’t it?
Oops, I got caught up in their pace.
If this keeps up, I might not finish preparing the Santa costume in time.
Alright, I’ll aim for killing two birds with one stone.
"But, you know, only good children receive presents."
"Tama’s a good girl~"
"Pochi’s a good girl too!"
"Oh? Is that so? Even if you think you’re a good girl, others might not think so."
"Ugh~"
"Th-That’s not true! Arisa is being mean!"
"For bad children..."
I pause my words to catch their attention.
"A black namahage wearing a black outfit will come."
I try to make it dramatic, lowering my voice gradually.
Waiting for the moment they hold their breath.
"Are there any bad children~!!"
"No bad children here~!"
"Pochi and Tama are both good girls~~"
Raising my hands and shouting loudly, they scream and dash down the stairs to the room where the Masters are.
Yes, they’re good kids worth teasing.

As an apology for scaring them during the day, I gave socks as presents to Pochi and Tama.
When I told them to hang the socks by their pillows so Santa would put gifts inside, they happily hung them up.
Mia also hung her usual over-the-knee socks, but since they’re thin, I wonder if putting presents inside will stretch them?
The four of us lay down on the bed and fell into a happy sleep.

"Oh? It looks like even Arisa has fallen asleep."
"Then, let’s put the presents in and go back downstairs."
"Yes."
Looks like Arisa won’t be joining the christmas night party.
It’s a shame since I prepared magical artifacts that play moody music, stylish adult tableware, and appetizers.
I quietly closed the bedroom door, feeling soothed by the peaceful sleep of the four of them.
