Chapter 8 (1/2)

I think this will probably be the end of my roll for the week, and I will probably start releasing c09 on Thursday or Friday-ish of next week.

Have a wonderful weekend guys!

-love, haru

TL Note: So, I’ve been writing Teikoku as “enemy country” for the longest time for some dumb reason (it translates to empire). I will fix the previous errors I made in past chapters. From now on, I will refer to them as just their transliterations, since it honestly doesn’t sound cool unless it’s transliterated. So

enemy country (typo, the one Lint Bloom is fighting) -> Teikoku, and

Kingdom (the side that Lint Bloom is fighting on) -> Oukoku.

Sorry for the changes and mistakes everyone. Improving everyday~

Chapter 8

We left early in the morning and arrived at the northern plains in the evening.

By the way, lunch was rice b.a.l.l.s.

Rice is great!

A little further away seems to be Teikoku.

Leader, who was filled with antic.i.p.ation and nervousness, said,

「Why are you guys all shaking in your boots? Because the war will start at noon tomorrow?」

「Eh? The starting of the war has been decided?」

「Ah, Teikoku and Oukoku discussed and decided on this. We decided on other rules, but you guys don’t need to worry about it.」

「I see.」

A war having rules, well, I guess they did it in my old world, so it wouldn’t be strange for them to have rules here.

「Now that you say that, I have a message from the leader of Oukoku’s Order.」

「Eh? For me?」

「Yeah, before it gets dark, please come, he said.」

「I- I understand.」

I wonder what it’s about? There’s not enough people and I have to fight? What should I do! I can’t fight human beings!

I got to the tent for the Oukoku’s Order but I just loitered around until a knight across the tent said,

「What the h.e.l.l, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you’ve been sneaking around the front of the tent for a while. You’re suspicious!」

「Ah, Yes! …Wait, no, I would never be a suspicious person!」

「What’s going on with all the noise.」

「O-Oh, Leader. I found a suspicious person.」

「Suspicious? Ah, him? He’s a guest I called over.」

「Wha-! I- Is that so? I just remembered I had something to do. Please excuse me.」

All the knights hurried away and went somewhere. It must’ve been very important business?

I was led inside the tent by Leader and we sat facing each other.

「It was Kio, right? 」

「Ah, yes! That’s right, Leader of Oukoku Kis.h.i.+dan.」

「I’ve heard the rumors about you, you make all sorts of delicious food.」

「Y- Yes. I don’t know if it’s delicious but I can cook.」

「Hahah, so humble, aren’t you. Well, fine, I have a big job for you.」

Wh- what. Something like becoming a spy on Teikoku or a.s.sa.s.sinating someone?

「Don’t make that difficult face. It’s your specialty. I want you to make food for about ten thousand men.」

「T- ten thousand!? Even for me, I…」

「Ah, you won’t be the only one cooking. There will be 20 more cooks along with you. I want you to cooperate with them.」

「Well」

「Please! This battle’s victory depends on raising morale. Teikoku has 15,000 troops, compared to our 10,000 troops. Our numbers are definitely inferior. So, I beg you! Please lend us your power!」

「Ah, please raise your head! I understand, I understand, so!」

「Really! Will you do it! By the way, you can use all the ingredients we have.」

The leader said to please use the ingredients here and showed four carriages filled with all ingredients.

「What will you make?」

「Hm, you are?」
