The War Hero Raises a Demon Slave

23 – Satisfy the noble lineage!

I looked closely and saw that it was an iron shovel with a long handle and a square head.

Is that the original kitchen? Or did Ael buy a new one?

By the way, why is that shovel in the kitchen?

It looks like it could be used in any mine.

Ael began to place thinly sliced pork belly on the square blade of a shovel.

Not only pork belly, but also whole onions, mushrooms, and sliced garlic.

Ael sprinkled coarsely ground salt on it.

Ainer was curious about what Ael was going to do with that shovel, so he decided to stand and watch it.

After finishing all the preparations on the shovel, Ael opened the lid that blocked the entrance to the oven.

Then the scorching heat of the red-burning firewood came out.

“Ouch, that’s hot!”

Ael backed away with a frown on her face and pushed the blade of the shovel with her pork belly deep into the oven.

“One, two, three!”

After counting to three, Ael took out the shovel and Einer exclaimed.

“Wow!”

A perfectly cooked pork belly appeared as the juices boiled over the shovel blade taken out of the oven.

Einer swallowed his saliva involuntarily at the sight of the thick, dark golden-colored pork belly and vegetables.

Where did you learn to cook like that? It’s a novel method that I’ve never heard of before.

“Huh? What are you doing there? Come on, wash your hands!”

“Uh uh. Okay.”

Wanting to taste Ael’s cooking quickly, you hurriedly ran to his back door and scrubbed his hands.

When he returned to the kitchen, Ael finished preparing the meal by transferring everything, including the pork belly, to the plate.

“Welcome, master. Are you hungry?”

“Awesome, great. You made this all by yourself, right?”

“hehehe.”

No need for long words.

Einer immediately picked up a fork as soon as he sat down on the chair.

Let’s see.

Bulgogi stir-fried with soy sauce on bibimbap topped with vegetables and eggs.

Hey, what is this? Oh, it’s fried chicken.

One is fried and the other is seasoned.

And last but not least, the samgyeopsal that made an unprecedented appearance in the oven.

Let’s try this pork belly first.

This is what I often ate when serving the baron in the past.

At that time, I took out a barbecue grill in the large garden and grilled it on the spot.

But the samgyeopsal grilled in Ael’s way also looks very appetizing.

The pork belly was quickly grilled with the tremendous firepower of the oven, and the oil on the surface was still simmering.

You felt goosebumps all over your body as Ael put a slice of it in his mouth and chewed it.

The elegantly shiny outer surface was as expected crispy.

In the distinctly layered fat, the oil melted and blended with the savory taste of the burnt part to create the best harmony.

In addition to the soft and moist pork belly that can feel the elasticity, the pork belly completely took over Einer’s tongue with a sensuous pattern that stimulates the taste buds.

Yes, this is it. This is meat

Samgyeopsal is delicious eaten alone, but the flavor deepens even more when you dip it in salt or wrap it with lettuce, ssamjang, red pepper, and garlic.

Unfortunately, though, Ael didn’t seem to know that much.

Of course, that’s how people who are serious about oriental food like the late Baron know.

I’ll tell you later.

If you tell me right now, you won’t be able to feel restless while saying, “I didn’t know again, I’m sorry.”

Starting with the fantastic pork belly, Einer tasted all the other dishes prepared by Ael.

The bibimbap was overwhelming with a splendid combination of various vegetables, stir-fried meat, and eggs.

When you mix it well with a spoon and eat it, the sweet yet slightly spicy taste of the sauce that spreads in your mouth, the texture of fresh vegetables, and the softness of the egg are all mixed together.

For the fried chicken, the harmony between the crispy batter and the moist flesh was perfect.

Einer was startled by the gravy bursting out as the batter crumbled when he cut it big.

The well-roasted bulgogi is full of savory aroma as the unique seasoning permeates the thinly sliced meat.

The sweet taste of soy sauce and the scent of minced garlic and ginger filled Einer’s taste buds.

Einer thought as he felt the chewy meat and the savory taste of the seasoning slowly melt in his mouth.

I am happy.

I had no choice but to admit it.

Ael has a talent for cooking.

As expected, it was good to bring him back.

I can finally realize my dream of running a restaurant as a proxy.

Very good.

But Ael, who doesn’t know what you’re thinking, couldn’t even eat a bite the whole time Ei-you was eating wa-gu-wa-gu, and was holding his hands together in agony.

This is the first time A.L. Has put so much effort into cooking.

Of course, I didn’t work casually at the kitchen, but there was always a hectic environment with insufficient ingredients and time.

Unlike the time when the main purpose was simply to fill the stomach, now you have to captivate customers with taste.

So Ael was uneasy about Einer just continuing to eat without saying anything.

Actually, Einer was so delicious that he ate like crazy without even having time to speak.

“Whoa…”

As Einor stopped forking and let out a long sigh, leaned back against the backrest, Ael trembled and asked.

“Uh… How are you…?”

“I can’t eat anymore.”

Ael felt like the world was collapsing at Einer’s words.

He said he couldn’t eat anymore….

You don’t like the taste….

As expected, I am a stupid pig who is not good at anything….

“I’m sorry, master… I don’t think I’m good at cooking… Opening a restaurant is…”

“So delicious.”

“Eh?”

Ael, who was apologizing week after week, opened his eyes wide and looked at you.

“It’s so delicious, but I can’t eat it anymore because I feel like my stomach will burst.”

“hehehehe? It’s delicious?”

“Delicious. Excellent. You are amazing.”

“Whoops!”

Ael felt dizzy at the sudden shower of compliments.

Ael had almost no memory of being praised.

I couldn’t help but be distracted when Ael, the owner who held his leash, praised Ael.

“You were really a cook? Didn’t you work at a restaurant?”

“Ah, no…”

Ael, whose ears were reddened, smirked at him, not knowing what to do with his body, and lowered his head.

“I can open a restaurant right now. If only a few things are improved.”

With that, Einer told me his impressions.

“Everything is delicious. I like the appropriate variation on the Eastern cuisine recipe that can be liked or disliked. But can you handle the entire menu by yourself?”

“Eh…? Well…?”

“If you look at this, the cooking method is very different. There is no continuity, so you must be very busy.”

“Hmm, if a lot of customers come and order everything, I think that’s the case.”

“I’d rather try changing the menu on a weekly basis. That way, it’s easy to procure ingredients, and it’s also possible to introduce a variety of Eastern cuisines and select only those that are well-received and make it a fixed menu.”

Ael nodded his head because your words made sense.

“Master, you are right. Then what should we do?”

“First of all, let’s feed the members and think about it. If we listen to their opinions, we might get a better number. Maybe they’ll be crazy about it too.”

“Hee hee.”

Hearing the praise again, Ael covered his cheeks with both of his hands and hid.

“I don’t know how Ryan will react.”

“Ah, yes…”

Gourmet security officer Ryan, said to be from the royal family of the fallen kingdom.

An uneasy shadow fell on Ael’s face when he heard that name.

The owner said it was delicious, but… It might feel different in the mouth of the royal family, right?

I’m worried….

As scary as it is, time passes quickly.

Ael, who was busily wandering around the kitchen, screamed when he realized that the sun was setting outside the window.

“What can I do!!”

Today is the day to present food to the master’s crew.

Now everyone will be coming home from work soon.

As the moment he had been waiting for but wanted to avoid was right around the corner, Ael groped for the kitchen counter in a daze.

Let’s see, let’s see.

Did you forget to prepare everything?

Maybe this isn’t enough?

Ah, I don’t know. I really don’t know.

Ael unknowingly grabbed the air on either side of his head, but was startled to find that his horns didn’t hold.

Whoops! That’s right, I cut my horns?!

Al is in a state of extreme tension right now to the point where he forgets even that obvious fact.

Calm down, Ael!

I can’t hold a tasting party properly now.

If you act like this, you’ll disgrace the master’s face!

Ael started singing to calm his mind.

“Burning bravery, infinite passion…! Like a star that shines on the battlefield without stopping…! Legion advancing towards victory!!”

As he sang the marching song of the Demon King’s Army, Ael gained strength.

“Stand strong in the midst of the storm!! Show courage even in the midst of lightning! I will advance on the path of glory-!!!!”

* * * * *

Einer, who was walking up the hill while chatting, stopped at the sound of Ael shouting outside the house.

“Huh? What does that mean?”

Kira tilted her head and Toby shrugged her shoulders as if he had no idea.

“Determination, strength and indomitable spirit!! The glory of the Demon King’s army, the name shines!! The legendary Shijaaak that will be remembered forever!!!!!”

Ainer, realizing that the pitches were all wrong and that Ael was singing a whale song, touched his forehead.

Why is that suddenly like that?

“Captain. Your slave seems to be starting a war alone to get revenge.”

Kira and Toby burst into laughter at Marco’s joke.

“You really can’t sing.”

Einer shook his head at Ryan’s cold-hearted comment.

“Because not everyone can be perfect.”

“The unfulfilled dream sparks in my heart! I will awaken with endless passion!!!!”
