Episode 7: Seeking Gastronomy

The Grand Palace of Nova Remulia.

It is the centre of the politics of the current Lemurian Empire, and also the place where Elquille lives.

This Grand Palace of Nova Remulia is the largest palace in the world, at least in the knowledge of Erkür.

Built by numerous artisans, including the coal miners (Dwarves), the palace itself is a kind of work of art.

And the palace is decorated with stained glass and mosaic paintings, and there is a beautiful purple carpet that supposedly only the emperor can use.

The walls of the palace, made of marble, are, if you look closely, beautifully sculpted.

It is the pride of Lemuria, whose breasts are stretched by the Lemurians, and the best works of art, in which the architectural skills and art of the Lemurian Empire have been aggregated.

Well...

This can be said for infrastructure installations such as roads, but buildings cost more to maintain than to stand.

This Grand Palace of Nova Remulia is no exception.

Beautiful sculptures applied, mosaic paintings, etc. are not much need to be repaired because they are sturdy.

The problem is not the luxury.

It is a broad thing.

The bigger it is, the more prominent the building is.

This is the truth.

The Grand Palace of Nova Remulia is huge anyway.

It also takes a lot of work to clean.

And if it's huge, that's all the protection costs.

So Elquille thought.

Let's seal off two-thirds.

Suzu Erkühl succeeded in reducing the cost of maintaining the Grand Palace to one fifth.

Assuming you have to use the room at some ceremony, you can clean it just before and after.

At least most unused rooms should be sufficient once a month.

It's not silly, like cleaning it up once a day.

That's why.

Though Erkühl has thoroughly omitted waste and sounded his finances to the feeling that…

In some areas, he wastes more than Hadrianus III.

One is the uniform of a servant who serves the palace, that is, a servant ().

From the very plain uniforms that we've had, Erkühr has adopted beautiful, cute designs, mini camouflage garments.

Naturally, only cute, young, unmarried girls can wear miniscamerican clothes.

My aunt is just like before.

I don't need to tell you.

What if it gets dirty? You can replace it with taxes.

Also, the young servant of a woman who works for the Grand Palace...

Thirty people.

Twenty Mixed Elves.

only fifty in total, so it doesn't hang as much gold.

Fifty, by the way, are a selection of beauties.

Design is an artist Elkhur and an ancient acquaintance.

This artist designed dozens of adorable maid clothes in Norinoli.

And Elquille adopted almost all of that.

As a result, the design changes depending on the day.

Why did you employ miniscamade clothing?

for the maintenance of Elquille's eyes.

I was also thinking about eating (sexually) if there was a cute kid at last.

Here's the thing, it sounds like Elquille is a ghost... but no, it's actually a ghost...

The young girl serving the Great Palace in the first place is a candidate for concubine of the Emperor.

The fact that recruitment criteria are faces tells the story.

And the girls, naturally, know that.

Rather than be willing to be the concubine of the emperor.

Erkühr is a beautiful man, muscular and in shape, young and, above all, the country's largest powerful man, located above among the long ear clans (elves) with a range of beautiful men.

To target that seed, the girls' eyes are glittering.

Well, Elquille is obsessed with Carolina right now, so it's unlikely that the girls will be held at the moment.

By the way, the young girl's servant leaves the palace in almost a decade.

If you can't keep your eyes open for ten years, you'll have to compromise with another man.

Well, human beings (human beings) don't change their beauty in ten years if they're mixed ears (half elves) anyway, so marriage is easy.

But I still want to be the Emperor's concubine.

While those girls blushed slightly, they pretended to be butts in front of Elquille again today wearing miniscamaid clothes, saying, "Fuck it, fuck it!" He remembers it in his heart.

There is another Erkür waste besides miniscamaid clothing.

It is cooking.

"Yeah, it's delicious today"

Elquille sips the soup with a silver spoon and drinks it cold with hoohoohoo.

Then tangle the pasta with a silver fork and transport it to your mouth.

Including labor and materials costs, meals of 100,000 yen (Japanese yen equivalent) per meal are arranged.

Salad, pasta, fish dishes, meat dishes, soups and desserts.

All its ingredients were fresh and seasonal, gathered from all over the Lemurian Empire, and it was the highest cook of the Lemurian Empire who cooked it.

Without a doubt, the dishes lined up in front of Elquille are the highest level of things in this world.

While carrying such a sumptuous meal into his mouth, Elquille's face does not clear somewhere though.

(You're slightly inferior to the three-star dish I remember from my previous life...)

"Um, about one or five stars? Well, you're better than before."

"Thank you. … I will continue to refine and make dishes to show His Majesty roaring"

The head chef thanks Elquille deeply.

Erkühl hopes, he calls out and concentrates again on his meal.

In fact, it's not like the man who was Elquille's previous life was a millionaire, so he wasn't eating three-star dishes on a daily basis, but rather as much frozen foods, etc., so the dishes he's eating far more now are nutritious, including flavor, up there.

But now Elquille is the emperor.

It's the greatest thing in the country, so you shouldn't be complaining about eating three-star class dishes on a daily basis.

But...

Hate, at the culinary level of the Lemurian Empire, the extent of Michelin between one and two stars in Erkühl's previous life was the limit.

The technical level of the Lemurian Empire, however advanced the field, is precisely about the Renaissance period.

However, because of magic and magic, ingredients can be stored for a long time and transported from afar without losing freshness, and the firepower used in cooking can be adjusted more than modern Japan.

Besides, the Lemurian Empire is expensive when it comes to spices and sugar because it is a trading nation… it is readily available if you are an emperor.

Still, it was to this extent.

But I can't help it with this.

The culinary drill hasn't progressed yet.

Besides, the cuisine of the Lemurian Empire is quite expensive compared to the surrounding countries.

Even royal aristocrats, such as countries of the West, ate food by hand, and the food was just baked and spiced.

The Lemurian Empire is a developed country.

But Elquille is not satisfied with that.

So Erkühr increased the number of cooks and ordered the cooks to develop new dishes and improve their flavors.

And that, to some extent, is becoming a success.

Hamburg, for example, is a dish that has never existed before in the Lemurian Empire.

Hamburg, which Erkühr ordered to be made and improved, had become a favorite of Erkühr.

New flavourings were also allowed to be studied.

To give a specific example, it is mayonnaise… and many other types of sauces have been made to complete five seasonings, including mayonnaise.

Most recently, the idea is getting depleted, which is bothering the head chef.

The improvement in taste is steadily progressing.

Cooks prototype day and night dishes, summarize improvements in reports, and make new ones…

improved the flavour of the dish slightly by repeating.

The final thing of it shall be soup.

Numerous soups made with the concept of 'flavour' in mind, flavoured by Erkühr, had become far more than standard soups in this world.

In addition, Elquille was causing various ingredients to be scratched from all over the empire in order to increase culinary variations.

Coffee was buried.

There must be some ingredients somewhere that were delicious but not forward-looking.

Yes, tomatoes were found due to the search for ingredients that Erkühr began to think about.

As you know, tomatoes are an essential part of many dishes.

Tomatoes had already become an indispensable substitute in the palace cuisine of the Lemurian Empire.

Most of all, they haven't been eaten in the private sector yet.

Well, as for Elquille, I don't care much about the dietary situation of the people as long as I'm satisfied with my tongue.

The level of palace cuisine in the Lemurian Empire is jumping due to huge amounts of money and the hardships of the cooks.

Most importantly, Elquille has not yet reached a satisfactory level.

Elquille shrugged as she ate ice cream for dessert.

"Bread, pasta, pizza... it's delicious, but I think it's time to eat something else"

Specifically, I want rice.

Well, Elquille herself (...) is Rice... I've never had rice or Japanese food.

Still, I was interested in Japanese food, which the man of my previous life loved.

"I want Japanese food. I'm tired of western food. And then I want Chinese and Indian food."

But it is just impossible to recreate a dish that neither a cook who contends for the Lemurian Empire I or II has seen nor heard of, and there is no rice in the Lemurian Empire in the first place.

What's the matter...

Think of it as something like that, Fu and Elquille come up with it.

"Well, if it's not in the Empire, you can have it from out of the country."

Coffee and tomatoes were discovered within the Lemurian Empire, new ingredients, but there have been no reports of discoveries of new ingredients since the tomatoes.

It would be time to turn our eyes abroad.

"Let the merchants find you."

Fortunately, the Lemurian Empire is a trading nation.

There are many merchants coming from foreign countries.

Get information from them...

"If you bring ingredients and cooks from all over the world...... yeah, it's a good idea"

Erkür is a man of power.

It's as much money as it takes. With money, we can do anything.

First, rice.

And miso, soy sauce. Soybeans without it. I want some more beans too...

Erkür grinned with Niyaniya.

Nova Remulia, gastronomic capital.

The day is near when the capital of the Lemurian Empire will be so called.
