Isekai Ryouridou

It was not until two days after the day of the meeting that I was invited back to Castle Town.

In other words, Fermes himself said even the day after the talks, so he managed to get only one day's respite.

Anyway, this request was not to use meat other than seafood.

Needless to say, I have so far assembled my dedication around giva meat. I had handled carons and Kimmus meat with the help of Kimmus's Tail Pavilion, but the chances of getting seafood were very limited.

Of course, if it is dry seafood, I still use it deliciously today. but only dry foods similar to bonito and kelp are used in the main, which is also just used to take stock of juice dishes, and even fresh fish have never touched their hands exactly three times. In such a state, suddenly it would be natural to be in trouble, even if he were told to prepare the dishes to be served in the mouth of the noblemen of the king's capital, etc.

"But Lord Asta was able to cook all that food with the first fish I ever touched in the land. Don't worry about anything."

At the parting of the day of the talks, Polearth said so with a face that seemed extremely relaxed.

I'm sure it was the word I was trying to get rid of my anxiety. Anyway, it was impressive how Polearth was also so full of expectations that Fermes couldn't beat it.

(Well, it's always the case that Polearths makes his mind bounce on delicious dishes... but for now, you don't seem to be on guard about the Fermes)

Of course I'm not that wary of the Fermes. So much so that if I complained about this, the bees would hit, they were always friendly.

But if he were to be a nobleman of the king's capital, he would have belonged to his hands, and Fermes was an extremely difficult man to read inside. My impression was that he seemed so unpretentious that he couldn't beat Camua-Josh. I checked with everyone else on the way home from Castle Town, and that seemed to be the same thought for everyone.

However, the Donda-Lou and the others also said, "It doesn't seem like they are speaking falsely".

At the beginning of his encounter, Camua-Josh was certified as a frigid human being by the people of the woods because he was making various falsehoods, but that is how he stated that there were no such suspicious signs. As for the falsehood of the other, he was a forest people who were all the more sensitive.

"Something called a secret thought may exist. But it doesn't seem like it's based on hostility or malice."

Gazran-Rutim said so.

It was an extremely comforting story for that Gazran-Rutim to say so.

"Well, not many people will be exposed to all their moods the day they first face each other. It seems like we're going to have to take a long time to deepen our bond with that strange person."

I could agree wholeheartedly to that word.

This job is the first step to be remembered.

As far as I'm concerned, I had to prepare the dishes with all my heart to satisfy the Fermes.

"... but that was a strange man indeed"

After I broke up with everyone and went back to Fa's house, Ey-Fa and others were spilling the truth that way.

"I didn't think you were a spiteful person, and I didn't think you were speaking a word you didn't even have in mind. But... a man as strange as that, it's hard to stay."

"Yeah. I'll check it out at the end of the day, but 'man' is fine, right?

When I pushed him like that, Ai-Fa happened to look grumpy and stuffed him.

"What are you talking about? Sure, there was a whole side to it with a woman, but there's no doubt that she's a man.... Did you think she was a woman?

"No, I thought I was a man, too. I wanted to check it out again because there was something about Dial."

"Is that true? Speaking of which, it seems to me that every now and then you have the kind of look that he sees..."

"That's not true. I thought you were a man, but there's no way you could see it, is there?

After I said it, I was supposed to understand my failure as "shit".

As you can see, Ai-Fa comes close to his face in such a way that he is in a bad mood.

"Hmm... so if he was a woman, he'd have been watched."

"No, that was after the words. Whether you're a man or a woman, you won't be impressed or surprised."

…………

"Uh, you don't trust me, do you? Then why don't you explain why I can't be seen by anyone else? Because my heart is monopolized by a certain woman."

I couldn't finish saying it till the end because I-Fa has been waving chops down my brain.

It is such a painful pain that it has been reduced. Ey-fa, who had rolled it out, was trembling with a smugness as he turned red in his face.

"Enough is enough. Don't be upset about this."

"No, it's important to me. I don't want them to suspect me of a change of heart."

"I'm telling you, that's enough!

Now shake the tip of your hand to the left or right and put your peppy on my head.

I managed to do more damage than I needed, but I didn't love it.

"Wow, okay, okay. It's time for you to give me a break, because even with such gentle force, my brain is going to shake when I count."

You cared the way I said it, Ai-Fa finally pulled my hand in after turning my head crooked at the end. I don't know because I don't have a mirror, but it would be a sawdust original hairstyle.

"Hmmm!... so it's hard to cook decent food without using meat?

"Today and tomorrow, I'll try to do something about it. They brought you this souvenir."

The luggage truck was loaded with ingredients prepared in Castle Town. When I explained that I needed drilling to cook with unfamiliar seafood, they brought me something like this. In a large barrel, fish similar to Ivana should have been swimming cramped.

Fortunately, the next day was a holiday, so it was a day when I built up my personal training. I used all that time to complete this day's dedication.

◇

"Nevertheless, I didn't think you'd be expected to cook without giva meat"

In the Totos car proceeding down the castle town, it was Raina-Lou who spoke that way once again.

"The last time the dregging auditor didn't even try to mouth Gibba's cooking at first, but he gave it to Zilbe... this time, you're talking about not being able to eat the meat itself, right?

"Yeah. Not only is Karon no good for Kimmus or wild bird meat. However, since you can eat as many fish dishes as you want in Wangdu, it doesn't seem inconvenient."

"But will that fermese nobleman be spending time in Genos from now on? In Genos, you say that there are limits to live fish, but is it okay?

"Yeah. He brought a pile of seafood for himself. And then, every three months, they're replenished."

And I guess I'll take those ingredients to the cook at Castel Genos to make them cook. Even the cooks at Castel Genos probably held their heads because they should not be so familiar with the handling of seafood.

"Those living fish were talking about no other humans to deal with in Varcus. In the future, Vulcan may be called to Castle Genos."

"I see. Is that why, even today, Varcus was to be called?

I don't know what that means, but Varcus was also called as a cook at this evening's dinner. Depositing Kamado on the same day as Varcus was indeed a crackling story.

Thanks to this, Raina-Lou and the rest of us are more than willing to do so. At first it was a tempting look to hear of unfamiliar fish dishes, but I guess I was motivated enough to write that off.

The rash of the day, by the way, is me, Raina-Lu, Sheila-Lu, Limi-Luu, Tour-din, Yun-Sudra, Malfira-Naham,. They were all elites who also participated in my personal training venue.

Nevertheless, the one called my personal training has still only been held four times. The most recent yesterday we were to train fish dishes, and until then we were all going to spend it at Fa's house on existing ingredients and miso bargaining. Before I begged Jan or Giese or Michelle to teach, I wanted to try everything I could think of myself first.

It would take a long time for those achievements to bear fruit, but I was able to live my days with more reward and accomplishment than ever before.

Even with regard to this strange request, I feel more fun than annoyed. Fish dishes may not be the main dish by the woods, but this should have been enough experience for me.

"... you seem to be standing up a lot, Asta."

And, I'm not in a very good mood in the morning, Ey-Fa, I hear you softly. Today's escorts are two: Ai-Fa and Rudd-Lou.

"Yeah, well, I think it's a rewarding job.... I think you look a little less floating in the eye/fa"

"Well, it's something we're not interested in, like cooking without giva meat."

And I seemed to be reminded of the complicated feelings of Fermes trying to make me such a dish.

Rudd-Fa's twinkle reached my ear, Rudd-Loo, who was happily talking to Limi-Lu, looks back at this one.

"Whatever you want, let us have Giva's cooking too, okay?

"Yeah. I brought you plenty of giva meat, for fuck's sake. Fish dishes are delicious, so eat Giva dishes."

While I was exchanging those words, I arrived at the VIP hotel.

They still choose this place when they make us cook. Well, it's a convenient place to be.

"Hey, hey, I've been waiting for you. Best wishes, Lord Asta."

At the entrance to the VIP Hotel, Polearth was waiting for him. His eyes capture Rudd-Lou's appearance, and he narrows it with a dust.

"You accompanied Lord Rudd-Lou today. Sorry to hear about your busy giva hunting job."

"No, thanks to the hounds these days, it's a long way to go. Nothing annoying."

Even the Lou family had incorporated a system of half-time breaks to give their hounds a rest, and the Giva harvest is nevertheless improving dramatically. Polearths gave a gleeful expression, "Well," he said.

"Now you want to invite people from the woods as guests. I mean, Lord Fermes himself seems to want it, so I look forward to it."

"Hmm. This time nobility is a lot friendlier."

"Yeah. Maybe that's in your hands over there, too, because there's no dark spot behind you either way. I wonder if I can help you out."

I believe he has quite a forensic eye with Polearths. Even such a pole earth did not seem disturbing to both Fermes and Aug names.

"Though time is running out, are you okay? Lord Asta and the others are done with the stall business, right?

"Yes. I'll try to make it exactly in time for the upcoming carving limit. Rest assured."

Even after the stall's commerce, there are still plenty of nearly four hours left by sunset. With all this respite, you shouldn't have had to panic.

Thus, in the forestside settlements, reliable compatriots are encouraging us to go down for tomorrow. Even if core members like me and Yun-Sudra and Tour-Din, Raina Luu and Sheila Luu fall out, talent is growing in Fa and Luu so much so that there are no deficiencies in those jobs. Supported by those people, we were standing here.

"So, Lord Fermes has a proposition for you."

"Yes. What would you suggest?

"Yeah. He wants to enjoy the aftermath of winning which dish is better than eating the dishes of Lord Asta and Lord Varcus. So could you hold off in the separate room during the meeting?

I was supposed to tip my little neck wondering if that would make me feel better.

"I don't mind this one at all, but among you, is that the kind of entertainment you get?

"Hey, that's a pleasure not to ask in Genos. In the first place, it will be easy for us to distinguish between the two dishes, so it won't be too much fun."

That being said, Polearth smiled delightfully.

"Well, after all, perhaps you wish to correctly determine if Lord Asta's arms are anything less than a castle cook. Whatever it is, Lord Asta, if you prepare your dishes as always, that's enough."

"Yes, I understand"

"After the meeting, you'll be greeted as usual. Until then, Lord Asta and the others should proceed with their meals."

That was a thankful story. Tasting with the Varcus is also a big event for us.

"See you later. I hope it's delicious."

Leaving those words behind, Polearth left the VIP Hotel. Until the start of the meeting, I guess I'll do another job. In such a busy time, did you come all the way to the VIP Hotel to speak to us? It was a Polearth-like concern.

That's how we cleaned ourselves up and made our way to the cook.

When I open the door, a very complicated scent strikes me. Naturally, the Vulcas had begun cooking for a long time.

"Thank you, Varcus, for today"

Varcus doesn't like working conversations, so only me and Raina-Lou decided to leave a greeting.

Varcus, who was skipping instructions to Roy, who was setting the iron pot on fire, turns back to us. Of course, they are both masked.

"Nice to meet you. I am more than happy to keep my cook on the same day as Lord Asta for crackling."

Speaking out in a completely emotional voice, Vulcan quickly turns his gaze back to Roy.

"Look, the fires are getting stronger. I told you not to let the size of the boiling foam get bigger than the nails on your pinky fingers, right? Are you going to ruin my cooking?

"Yes, excuse me. I'll adjust immediately."

Roy doesn't loosen up looking back at this one, he's fighting Kamado.

With such a mentor on our asses, we decided to disperse early.

"After all, Vulcan instruction seems to be very demanding"

"Yeah. So I guess Roy could have lifted all those arms, too"

"… I would also like to encourage you more than ever"

Raina-Lou, who describes it that way, had a crisp face.

I make him laugh, "Right."

"Shall we start this one, then? Share, as I explained yesterday."

"Yes, I understand"

We started our work too, forming the most distant workbench with the Vulcas.

If I take the cooking of live fish or dry foods that I haven't had much chance of dealing with before, there's nowhere to turn into the work of the Raina-Lou's. I was able to safely entrust myself with my work because all of the things I did today were the best kamadoku by the woods.

(Besides, the only thing that's forbidden is beast and bird meat. Conditioning like this is more like an arm buzzing)

Today, I was not forbidden to use Kimmus eggs or Karon's dairy products. It's not that I'm allergic or vegetarian, I guess I'm just a pure predator. Although it wasn't a story that I personally could be very impressed with, I couldn't even get a kerchief on your hobby of nobility.

(But it's a shame you can't share the same joy in Giva cuisine)

The dinner party today was to be attended only by Dari-Sauti and Gazran-Rutim as representatives of the people by the woods. Dari-Sauti was elected here, but Gazran-Rutim was the result of Fermes' request for a seat.

So, the two of you can't even mouth a good giva dish that is made in a cook, so you have to fill your stomach with fish dishes alone. We also had a day when we only finished dinner with caron food when we traveled to Dubbag, but as for the Dari-Sautti people, it would be a sad thought.

(But well, I'm sure my family is preparing a giva night meal at home)

Even if you mouth the same amount of meal as a nobleman, if you're a hunter by the woods, your stomach must only be about half filled. I laughed at them for feeding me something funny, and then I hoped they filled the other half of my stomach with the heartfelt of my family.

Even while I think about it that way, the food gradually finishes.

As time grew deeper, the cooks working at this VIP hotel showed up and began to get to work on their own. The smaller chef alone probably couldn't get the job done. Even at such times, we cannot force the people staying in the hotel to fast.

"... excuse me. You're Lord Asta, the cook by the woods?

And a slightly familiar, magnificent cook finally bowed his head to me.

"I know I have greeted you a little before, but I am the one who keeps the head chef at this VIP hotel. This time, thanks to the efforts of the people by the woods, we will not be able to handle the wonderful ingredients."

"Ah, yes. Is that a miso?

"Yes, even in this hotel, dishes with miso are very popular."

That was, above all, the story. Miso's reputation appeared to be high in both the residential and castle towns. Of course, in the settlements by the woods, it is natural.

"We treasure miso because it is as easy to handle as tau oil, boiled, juiced or baked.... It just seems hard to match with vanilla seeds. Even here, as Lord Asta was guided, we used Myrmu, Kerr's roots, etc. together, and vanilla is in the same condition."

"Right. I'm still thinking about combining it with vanilla."

"Yep. I'm just going to have to separate the vanilla dishes from the miso dishes, so I don't have a problem with that... but if it's Lord Varcus, they'll come up with the perfect combination of miso and vanilla soon"

That being said, the person saw Varcus working on a far away workbench better.

It feels like there is a light in its eyes that is neither enviable nor visionary.

"Now, if you'll excuse me in the middle of your work. Please do not hesitate to speak up if it is any missing equipment"

"Yes, thank you"

Being heard by an unknown castle cook was quite a fresh experience.

Besides, I can't thank a man in a position like me enough to pay that much respect.

Even more time had passed and visitors were informed from outside the door at a time when it was thought that the dish was currently complete.

Turning to her feet with Ai-Fa, a Sim woman stands wrapped around a beautifully embroidered hooded cape, instead of Rudd-Lou, who was serving as a escort outside the door. Needless to say, it was Alishna, the astrologer.

"Asta, it's a hiccup. Sorry I'm busy."

"No, not at all. What the hell is wrong with you?

"Yes. Asta, talk, there is"

That, of course, must have come because we needed to talk. As I waited for the words to continue, Arishna looked quietly at Ai-Fa with black eyes reminiscent of the lake at night.

"... just Asta, talking, is it possible?

"Does that mean you want to keep me away?

Occasionally, the eye-fa lifted his eyebrows, tingly. It looks as if a disheartened bobcat and a graceful sham cat are relative.

"Yes. If I could, I'd like to ask, I think"

"I don't know why you want to keep me away. If there is no darkness behind it, it is not necessary to imitate it."

"... in the dark, somewhat, there is."

Feeling the noisy light coming out of Ey-Fa's eyes, I rushed to speak up to the mood.

"I don't know what you're talking about, but I-Fa is my parent. I don't think it makes sense to keep Ai-Fa away because it's not the time to hide anything"

"... So, Asta and the parents, just the two of you, talk, can you?

Originally Rud-Lew speaks with fun with the young man in the guard. Still, we decided to take a few meters to make room for a secret conversation.

"Soon, Diplomat of Wang Du, I will visit. Me, talk, we have to hurry."

"Yes. Is this a story about a diplomat?

"That's right. King of Selva, star reading, hating. Diplomat, I'm the king's deputy, so I'm on guard."

That was something I remember hearing when Dreg and the others visited. Treasuring astrologers seems to be an unwelcome story for the king of Selva.

"..." Ameshorn's Turning Around, "stories, remember?

"Yeah, when it comes to" Ameshorn's Turnaround "-"

"Marquis Genos, by chance, the guard exercises, he was there. Therefore, Genos' damage, minimal, was retained. … I am irrelevant"

Arishna had probably foreseen the arrival of a major earthquake with astrological techniques. Malstein, who was advised to do so, placed a guard in the name of the exercise to prepare for it.

But I hear the story is confidential. The reason for this is just as Alishna said. When you do politics according to the words of an abundant astrologer, you fear buying the wrath of the king of Selva.

"Oh, I see. You're here just in case Arishna's irrelevant, aren't you?

"Yes, I, irrelevant"

"Of course, it's awkward. Besides, I don't think there's ever going to be that kind of talk between us and the Kingsville people."

"Yes, Asta, I trust you, but, hey, I wanted to keep it."

Then Ai-Fa, who was grumpy enough to listen, put her face closer to Arishna.

"In other words, is the darkness behind you against the men of the king's capital? Don't talk too loud."

"Yes, if you misunderstand or invite me, I apologize."

Alishna was staring back at Ai-Fa's face without fear.

"Hidden, if not, you, this story, were you listening?

"Whatever. You even handed Asta a catastrophe-free talisman? I was grateful for that concern."

"Really," Alishna turns to me.

Not a sticky, blameworthy look. but it felt like a faceless sham cat staring at me, and I was restless about nothing.

"… me, irrelevant"

"Yes, you don't need to push. In the first place, Arishna's words were only revealed to Ai-Fa."

"... you two, strong bonds, you're bound"

"Hey," Ai-Fa stuffed Arishna, blushing a lot.

Arishna looks back at the black crystal statue with no expression.

"Me, my family, I'm not here, so I envy you, I just thought. No other intentions."

"... I don't care, wasn't that story passed on to that daughter named Dial as well? If you want to stop talking, isn't there somewhere else to go around?

"That, Lord Genos, please. I just told Asta that I was myself, so I needed to do more."

"... Speaking of which, besides Asta, did you even give her a talisman for disaster relief?

"No, only Asta"

Ai-fa turned a slight gaze at me.

So Alishna stares at me, just like she's been followed.

Stared at by both Bobcat and Shamcat, he also doubled his restlessness.

"And anyway, I won't spread that story. In the first place, Arishna said it was irrelevant. We're guilty of falsehood, but that's what Alishna herself said, so we don't have to lie."

"... Yes. Please."

Arishna bowed her head deeply before walking away across the corridor.

Only a loving parent with a bobcat's eye was left behind. Those blue eyes were still on about me.

"... you have the power to move people. Like Tia and Yun-Sudra the other day, that Arishna will move for you."

"Ugh, yeah. Thank God for that."

"Oh, not at all"

So why are Ai-Fa's eyes so snug?

Faster than I could find that answer, the door behind me opened and I could hear Rayna-Lew.

"Um, Asta. I think it's time to finish it, don't you?

"Yeah, I'm coming! Come on, let's go back to the cook!

"Wait," he grabbed his collar.

Ai-Fa's face approaches with momentum that is about to hit her forehead.

"... now it seems to me that I was narrow. Forgive me for being so childish."

"Oh, really?

"Mm-hmm. I don't really have much to do with the guy, so I guess I'll be a lot more disturbed"

That being said, Ai-Fa smiled just in front of her eyes.

As usual, it is an attractive eye-fa smile.

"But it's no different that he's also showing us about Asta. Next time we see each other, we'll apologize for today's lawlessness.... Come on, you do your job"

"Yeah, I got it."

I = fa, since about yesterday - I mean, since I played face-to-face with Fermes, my emotions may have been just a little unstable.

But I can say that both the eye-fa who frowns back at interacting with other women and the eye-fa who honestly bumps their hearts can be described as an eye-fa-like attitude. However, the sudden fluctuation makes me feel a little unstable.

(I wonder if I can reassure myself if I can make a definite bond with Fermes)

Hopefully, then, this evening's dinner party will help.

I smiled back at the imminent Ey-Fa and then decided to go back to my job.
