Chapter 19 Ive Made some Friends (1/2)

I don’t know how much time passed, but I woke up and joined the rest in sharing barbecue again, chatted with the others, and before I knew it, the time had passed in a flash.

I thought about helping with the cleanup, but there wasn’t a single speck of dust left in the area by Ein’s hands. With a wry smile that spontaneously appeared on my face, I heard Neun-san call out to me.

[Miyama-san. If you want, I have some souvenirs you can take home with you…… First, here.]

[What’s this?]

Ein-san handed me a… black, square block-shaped jewel? There doesn’t seem to be anything special about it other than its shape.

[This is, well…… To put it simply, it’s like a storehouse that you can carry around. It has Spatial Magic and State Preservation Magic on it, making it able to store all sorts of things in it.]

[……Doesn’t it make this jewel something really amazing……]

That is to say, isn’t this that thing!? That an Item Box that’s a must for any Isekai stuff! I see, Ein-san was using a magic tool like this to prepare various things in an instant…… However, wouldn’t this thing be quite expensive?

[No no, it’s not that big of a deal. I made it out of the leftovers this morning, so don’t be shy and just accept it.]

[Sechs-sama is a master in making magic tools after all.]

[T- Thank you very much.]

Probably sensing my anxiety, Sechs-san calmly laughed and told me not to worry about it. Thanks to the fact that I’ve gotten to know him to a certain extent, I’ve noticed that even though Sechs-san looks like a skeleton, his expression changes properly. It might be strange, but I heard that there even are demons in the Demon Realm that have bodies made of ore, so if I just think about small details, it would be my loss.

[Muuu~ Even though I thought I would make Kaito-kun’s “Magic Box” myself~]

[Please give him a break. If Kuromu-sama were to use your magic power just to make it, it would become a national treasure just by itself……]

In response to Kuro who muttered out her complaints while puffing out her cheeks, Acht muttered something that sounds disturbing for some reason.

Apparently, this thing is called a Magic Box. Probably sensing my lack of understanding, Raz-san added some additional explanation.

[The amount of stuff that can be put into the Magic Box depends on the magic power of the creator~]

[Is that so?]

[Yeah, someone with an average magic power could make a Magic Box about the size of a closet to as large as a room…… But with Kuromu-sama’s magic power, it would probably have a ridiculous amount of space that I think you could fit an entire metropolis in it.]

I don’t know if I should say that it’s to be expected from Kuro or something like that, but I certainly couldn’t see any future where I would want an outrageous item like that. This made me doubly grateful for Sechs-san.

[Well, I think the space in Lord Sechs’s Magic Box would be bigger than a house though.]

[…………….]

……Even the substitute was already ridiculous enough huh.

While I’m surprised by the words Acht told me, Neun-san made some kind of magic circle-like object appear in the box and as she pointed at the center of the magic circle, she spoke.

[Touch the center of the magic circle. Then, the ownership will be registered to Miyama-san. Ah, you don’t have to be clad in magic power in particular.]

[Ah, yes.]

Touching the magic box as I was told, the magic box glowed for a moment, but there’s no particular change in its appearance. Did I do it right?

[Yes, the ownership has been successfully registered to Miyama-san. Next, well… The way to use it easily. Holding the magic box, think of the thing you want to take out and you would be able to, and if you think of storing an item while touching the item you want to store, you would be to store it. Ah, you can’t store living beings, so just keep that in mind…… After that, you could also check the contents, and you could also make the magic box itself recall and reappear.]

Receiving Neun-san’s explanation, I tried recalling the magic box in my hand, and in an instant, the black jewel disappeared. When I thought of making the magic box appear again, it appeared in my hand. What the heck, this is very convenient! As one would expect from magic!

Seeing me being impressed by the magic box, Neun-san smiled and then made a magic box appear on her hand as well.

[Well then, once again, I’ll be giving you some souvenirs.]

[Eh? Isn’t the souvenir this magic box……?]

[Ah, no, it’s just because having that would be convenient to carry and store stuff…… That aside, these are actually the main stuff!]

[T- These are…… Could these be……]

What Neun-san took out was a white wondrous stuff compressed into a triangular shape and it looks like it’s shining to me right now. The yellow color of the garnish makes a wonderful contrast and even feels divine to me now.

[Yes, the heart of the Japanese…… Onigiri and Takuan! I thought you might be missing them by now.]

[Gulp.]

(T/N: Riceballs and Pickled Daikon Radish)

I couldn’t help but gulp down looking at it. Neun-san…… So you’re actually a goddess……

It’s the fifth day since I came to a different world…… The food we have at Lilia-san’s mansion is extremely delicious. However, I guess it may just be a Japanese thing, but as expected, when I’m being served bread every single day, I tend to miss the white rice.

But unfortunately, there is no white rice in Lilia-san’s house. I’ve heard that white rice exists, but in spite of that, eating bread is the norm in this world, and rice is rarely distributed. I was even prepared to eat bread for the whole year.

[W- Would it be alright? I heard that rice isn’t widely distributed in this world, so it should be valuable……]

[You don’t have to worry about it. These are rice I grew personally. I assure you that it tastes great. I’m also a former Japanese, so as expected, I wouldn’t like to eat bread all the time. I have prepared lots of them, so please enjoy it with the others.]

[Thank you very much! I’m really happy about this!]

What a surprise, Neun-san says she personally makes her own white rice. I’m aware that they would earn her some money, but I’m seriously happy about this. I could even see a halo shining behind Neun-san’s back.

Moreover, the color and shape of these onigiris are wonderful. I can tell that it’s delicious for sure just by looking at it. Not only in her appearance, but her actions are also like a mirror of a Japanese.

[……Even though she said that, it was Sister Raz who made the rice and she was also the who cooked it though.]

[Uggh…]

[By the way, we don’t eat a lot of rice, so it’s almost only Neun-san asking for it, or rather, I felt like she just made it because she’s throwing a tantrum about wanting to eat it.]

[……She was very enthusiastic, saying “If it’s breakfast, it’s no good if it isn’t white rice, takuan, and miso soup!”.]

[Uuuhhhhh……]

Ah, it’s not Neun-san who made it huh……

With Acht and Ein-san’s tsukkomi, Neun-san’s shoulders slumped as if to say that she had been hit in a sore spot.

[……Even I tried to do it myself in the beginning. However, compared to Raz-sama who grows the highest quality produce regardless of the weather or topography, or Ein-sama who could bring out the flavor more skillfully than a skilled cook, how am I supposed to win over them……?]

[Ahaha, well, Raz also had fun raising all the rice-san~ You don’t need to worry about it.]

[I’m a maid, so please don’t compare me to a mere cook. Being able to cook all kinds of food is the least I can do as a maid.]
