Chapter 60 (2/2)

「Geez, no matter what, I absolutely will never eat what Roury-sama makes…」

Thanks for them talking about Roury, Souta remembers there is a letter for her from Elmia.

「Come to think of it, I still haven't given that letter to Roury…」

「Is it a letter from Elmia?」

「Yeah, so you know?」

Narasu nods deeply.

「The free-spirited Roury at the time went to the human territory with Carena, however she suddenly came back, while leaving Elmia in Carena’s care. Isn’t it obvious that she must want to try contacting her mother?」

「That’s too free-spirited. Well, that’s fine, so where is Roury?」

As he knows Roury is not in this room, Souta asks the two about her whereabouts.

「Umm, I don’t know, Roury-sama comes and goes as she pleases…」

「I apologize for my foolish disciple.」

「You don’t need to apologize, I was just told to pa.s.s on the letter if I meet her. It’s fine as long as I remember to give the letter the next time I meet her.」

Narasu tries to lower her head only to be stopped by Souta.

「That’s right, Master. Roury-sama wandering around is just like it usually is, there is no end to it if Master minds it.」

「Let’s start eating then, it took quite some effort to make this, it would be a shame if the food cooled down. My stomach has been stimulated by the good smell from some time ago.」

Dina changes the topic to the breakfast.

「I’m sorry, I will prepare it now then.」

Narasu goes back to the kitchen to pick up the remaining dishes.

Arezel also follows her along to help arrange the table.

Then the door swings open.

「Ta~da~, Roury-san is home. Um, smells great. As expected of Master, let’s eat it soon! I’m already starving.」

Souta and Dina are taken aback by Roury who enters the room with great momentum, sits down on an empty seat, and starts demanding food.

「Oh, Souta-san, Dina-sama, good morning. The meal Master makes is delicious, so look forward to it!」

「I-I see.」

Because of the flow of the conversation, Souta’s reply is a bit delayed, but then he remembers about the letter.

「Right, the letter. Roury, here is a letter from Elmia, I'll pa.s.s it to you now before I forget about it.」

After checking the front and the back of the letter, Roury puts the letter into her pocket without opening it.

「You aren't going to read it?」

「Yeah, I’ll read it later. It was sent straight to me, so I feel that I need to read this alone.」

Roury’s reply is a bit toned down somewhat compared to when she had entered the room.

「Yesss~, thank you for waiting. Here’s the breakfast.」

「Yes, also the soup.」

Narasu and Arezel put the dishes on the trays that are already arranged for each person.

After the distribution is done and everyone is seated…

「「Itadakimasu 」」

The three, Narasu, Arezel, and Roury, start eating the food as is, only Souta and Dina give a pre-meal greeting unique to j.a.pan.

「What is that? That itadakimasu?」

Arezel asks the question on behalf of others who clearly have similar questions.

「It’s a greeting for before the meal which is common in my hometown. I taught Dina a long time ago…… I'm surprised that you still remember.」

「Eeee~, it was Souta-san who told me to do it before you start your journey, you said “Always say itadakimasu before the meal, okay?”.」

「Hmmm that’s interesting. Master, let us also say it.」

「Right, then Arezel too.」

「Yes」

「「「Itadakimasu」」」

And the meal goes on peacefully. By the time they finish breakfast, Souta decides to explain about 『Gochisousama』 this time.

t/n: we got an actual note this time

G.o.d’s blessing mentioned in this chapter using same kanji with divine protection in stats ‘window’, the reason i translate it otherwise here is because it’s more accurate, i don’t plan to change the translation in stats window, hence why there is this note

A-A~a is a stutter of a~a, it’s different from aah which means yes, the meaning is closer to is that so, or i see, but with a hint of confusion in this case

lastly, i did plan to translate itadakimasu and gochisousama, and i probably already did so, but looking at this chapter, it looks like i can’t

there is no real plot this chapter, there is one next chapter though, also i’m sorry, this chapter is already finished since friday night, the edit finish since sunday night, so this should at least released on monday morning, which doesn’t happen simply because i’m lazy at the time, so yeah, i’m sorry
