Chapter 73 Well be Exchanging Letters (2/2)
Since she was the First Hero, I thought her heart would have monstrous toughness but…… It seems that Neun-san is the type of person who can’t stop herself from getting depressed.
It certainly seems like she’s taken the responsibility of making it, but I don’t think that’s something that she should be self-loathing for.
Well, this feels really awkward…… How should I say this…… I don’t think this is something I can show to the people of this world who worship the First Hero.
[E- Errr, Raz-san has told me about it but…… Even you should know how outrageous of a being Ein-san is. I’m sure Neun-san’s tofu would also have a taste that won’t be inferior to others……]
[……Then, please try it.]
[Huh?]
[You’ll know the difference once you try it out.]

[Ah, errr…… Alright.]
I tried cheering up the depressed Neun-san by saying something that I didn’t know if it would be a good follow-up.
Thinking that it was just a mistake to compete with a monstrous person like her to begin with, and that the tofu made by Neun-san, who’s quite particular with Japanese cuisine, must be delicious, I told her about those things but Neun-san just took out two types of tofu from her magic box and held them out to me.
[The one on the right is made by Ein-sama and the one on the left is made by me…… Compared to Ein-sama’s, my tofu is just like trash.]
[……………….]
Under the pressure of her very depressed atmosphere, I tried each of the tofu.
The tofu on the right, I don’t know if just terrific is enough to describe it…… It’s smooth and doesn’t get caught on the tongue, and the taste is so refined and elegant that even I can tell it’s a top-quality product. Ein-san made this in one shot? Just how much of a monster is she……?
The tofu on the left is very homemade, and has a warm and gentle taste.
Arehh? But, isn’t this just……
[……Ummm, as far as I’m concerned though, I prefer the tofu on the left though……]

[……Eh?]
[Ah, no, I’m not really saying that either of the tofu is good or bad. However, the tofu on the right certainly is very elegant and tasty…… but for me, I guess it tastes like home or something like that? I prefer the tofu on the left, which is simple and gentle.]
[A- Are you sure?]
After hearing my impression, Neun-san still looks like she can’t believe it, as she raised her face that was being covered by her knees and looked up towards me.
[Yes, it tastes really good. It’s so good that ” I would like to eat it every day”.]
[Fueehhh!?]
When I told her my honest opinion, Neun-san suddenly made a strange sound before standing up in one go.
Arehh? What’s going on? I get the feeling like she suddenly got flustered about something but……
[Mi- Mimi- Miyama-san!? T- T- T- That is to say, errr, y- you’d like to eat my miso soup everyday…… A- A- Are you saying that with that meaning?]
[……Miso soup? Yes, if it’s miso soup made by Neun-san, that sounds great and I’d love to have some.]

[ ~ ~ ~ ! ? ! ? ]
The miso soup made along with this tofu. Unnn, Neun-san is a Japanese foodie, and if she can make such good tofu, she must be a good cook, so if I’m not being a nuisance, I’d love to drink it.
[P- Please wait for a moment!? T- This is the first time I’ve been said such by a man, and my mind can’t keep up so……]
[Ah, no, it’s not like I’m forcing you or anything like that.]
[N- No, I- I don’t dislike Miyama-san by any means, and when we spoke before, Miyama-san had a favorable impression as you’re a very kind person…… H- However, I don’t think we know much about each other yet!!!]
[Eh? Ah, yes. That’s certainly true.]
Unnn? What in the world is Neun-san talking about? Does that mean she isn’t comfortable serving her home-cooked meal to someone she doesn’t know well?
No, I just wanted to try it if you’re okay with it Neun-san, but it’s not like I’m forcing you to give me some of it…… Could it be that because I’m Kuro’s acquaintance, she just can’t say no or something like that?
[Ummm, Neun-san. You don’t really need to mind it that much, if that’s impossible, it’s alright and just say so.]
[N- No, I- I think Miyama-san is a wonderful person, a- and I’ve been alive for a long time now, so I’ve also thought that it was about time to think about it, b- b- but please give me some time! F- First, let’s start with “exchanging letters”!!!]

[……Exchanging letters? Yeah, I don’t really mind but……]
Arehh? Why are we suddenly talking about exchanging letters? She did say earlier about how we still didn’t know each other very well, so I wonder if it’s related to that?
In short, it seems that she wants to deepen our friendship first, and then, she can serve me some of her home-cooked meals.
I heard that Neun-san was born in the Taisho Era, so perhaps, the means they have to deepen their friendship with someone is to communicate by exchanging letters.
I’ve never exchanged letters before, but since I have too much time in my hands since I came to this world, talking with her through letters would be great.
[W- Well then, ummm, I may be inexperienced…… F- From now on, I will be in your care.]
[Ah, yes. Me too.]
[U- Ummm, w- w- well then, I still have things to do, so I’ll be excusing myself! S- See you later!!]
After Neun-san quickly told me that, she vigorously left.
I’m not really sure what happened, but anyway, I guess it’s great that Neun-san had become better huh?

[Neun-san looked very bewildered, but do you have any idea why?]
[Raz also doesn’t know. But I’m glad to see she’s gotten better~~]
[That’s right.]
[Yes! And that’s thanks to Kaitokun-san~~ Thank you!]
Looking at Neun-san’s departing back, I just tilted my head along with Raz.
Dear Mom, Dad—— the day before the Sacred Tree Festival, I met up with some people I never expected to meet. Later on, the flow of our conversation somehow turned strange, and before I knew it——- We’ll be exchanging letters.
Two shadows stare at the figures of Kaito and Razelia, who are tilting their head, from a few distance away from them.
[……What do you think? Aoi-senpai.]
[……From what I see, it seems that there’s also a problem with the other side? I know he said that she’s a Japanese, but it may just be that even her way of thinking is also very old-fashioned.]
Aoi and Hina, who happened to pass by in the middle of their stroll and were watching the series of exchanges, mutter with a somewhat dumbfounded expression.

[I mean, why is Miyama-senpai’s reaction like that? He doesn’t look embarrassed from her reaction, it even looks like he’s really confused~]
[No, you may not have noticed it since they’re speaking with each other normally, but I don’t think you can expect Miyama-san to notice her reaction when he’s talking with someone whose expression is hidden behind her helmet……]
[Isn’t Miyama-senpai supposed to have an absurdly keen sense towards emotions because of his Sympathy Magic?]
[If he can’t see the difference between and , it would be impossible for him even if he can read their emotions……]
The two women, who are conversing with each other with a resigned expression on their faces, are approached by Rejnhardt, who is acting as their guide.

[Unnn? You stopped walking, what’s the matter?]
[No, it’s nothing.]
[Yeah, we were just watching a natural womanizer in action.]
[……Unnn?]

Kaito just said before, that riajuus should explode.
Does he want to commit suicide?
T/N: 1/9… That’s one rather long chapter.
