Arnold quickly cut thefroh it without any resistance as if it was pudding After splitting it into three portions, he put it into the three containers

“H- Here you go! Ah, don’t eat yet, brat!”

Hiiro tried to dig in without delay, but Arnold stopped him

“What? Do you want to torture me?”

His sto the alarht happen

“Don’t be stupid It’ll only be perfect with this!”

Saying so, he pulled out a long container with a sauce fro

“And that is?”

“A special sauce made from the ≪Orczy Fruit≫!”

“Whatever It’ll taste even better with that?”

“Yeah, forget about getting addicted, it’ll send you straight to heaven”

“Heh, interesting Count me in!”

The sauce had a colour like ketchup, but was more fluid than solid It had a faint sweet and fruity smell

“Okay! Now it’s perfect!”

“Yep!”

“Mhm”

Each of them responded

“””Time to eat!”””

Hiiro used the received fork in place of a knife and cut into the meat very easily It was incredible tender He cut an appropriate mouthful and ate it

“Ohh…!?”

A tingling ran through his head

(It- It’s gone!?)

Yes, the piece in his mouth had melted and disappeared Still, he was by noflavour intensely stimulated his taste buds

(Th- This is…!)

He took another mouthful And yet another

Then the quite large piece of one in no time All three had an entranced expression Hiiro never expected such an effect from it

“…Fuh, so what do you say about this meat, brat?”

Hiiro closed his eyes and immersed himself in the aftertaste Then he opened his eyes a bit and leaked a tepid sigh

“Well done, my servant”

“I know, right After all, thisyour servant!”

“Just a joke Don’t make a fuss, you’ll just ruin the mood”

“It’s your damn fault!”

“Aah!”

Seeing their exchange, Muir was bewildered

“Hmpf, whatever So, brat, what’s your name?”

“Name yourself first”

“You’re really so damn self-important! Geez, I’m Arnold Ocean An adventurer and cook!”

“A cook? I see, that explains your cooking method”

“Yeah, I travelled all around the world for cooking receipts Consider yourself lucky”

“And this shorty is?”

“Hey, listen to me!”

Arnold retorted, then continued with a sigh

“She’s Muir Castreia I picked her up during my travel”

“Oh, so in this world children are lying around”

“As if! They aren’t treasure chests!”

“Not?”

“Of course not! Soe”

It indicated that he didn’t want to tell more about it Muir also cast down her eyes somewhat sorrowful
