308 Bear-san Encounters the Long-Awaited Curry. (1/2)

I entered the dining room with Karina.

[Yuna-san, please sit here.] Karina

Sitting as I was told, Karina happily sits next to me.

As soon as we sit in the chair, the door opens then Balima-san and Ristil-san enter the dining room.

Also, there is a little boy holding Ristil-san’s hand. Speaking of which, you did say that you have a 3-year-old son.

[Mother…] Boyo

When the boy saw me, he hid behind Ristil-san.

He must have been surprised by the appearance of the Bear.

Bears are scary so it can’t be helped.

[Fufu, it’s all right. Because it’s a cute bear. Yuna-chan, let me introduce you. This is my son Norris. C’mon, say hello.] Ristil

Risti-san pushes the boy’s back in front of herself.

[Norris.] Norris (TN Chuck?)

After the boy says his name in a small voice, he becomes flustered and hides behind Ristil-san.

[Um, I’m Yuna. Nice to meet you, too.] Yuna

I introduced myself, but Norris just poked his face from behind her.

[I’m sorry this boy is a little shy.] Ristil

Ristil-san takes Norris to his seat.

Bears have a big heart so don’t worry. (TN: only for lolis and probably shotas.)

I call it indifference.

[Karina seems to be in a good mood, did something good happened I wonder.] Ristil

Seeing Karina sitting next to me, Ristil-san asks.

Maybe it was because Karina’s expression was so bright. Thanks to her playing with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, the childlike smile of Karina returned.

It seems that her stiff heart became a little soft.

[Yes, I got along with Yuna-san’s Bears. They were so fluffy and comfy.] Karina

[That’s good then, thank you, Yuna-chan. She’s been gloomy ever since that incident.] Ristil

Ristil-san smiled and thanked me.

When I first met Karina, her expression was so dark like its the end of her world. It was a good idea to let her play with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, so that she would get distracted.

When everyone gets to their seats, Rasa-san carries the food on a trolley.

A certain smell drifts from Rasa-san.

What’s that smell?

Really?

No way, can I really find it here?

Rasa-san placed bread, salads and a bit of food in front of me. And she placed something similar to ochre-curry-like-soup on the plate.

At that moment, the nostalgic smell stimulates my nose.

It’s been a long time since I smelled this scent.

……… This is definitely ……… Curry.

I stared at the soup that smells like curry. The color and the smell this is definitely curry. Now if the taste is different, it’ll be enough to sue for fraud.

But there are no other ingredients in it.

It feels like its not a curry that I know of.

When I’m investigating the , Rasa-san speaks.

[Please put it on the bread and eat it.] Rasa

Teaching me how to eat curry, of all things.

After all the food has been distributed to everyone, Rasa-san sits in the corner of the table. Apparently the house’s servant Rasa-san, also eats with them.

[Well then, Yuna-san, was it not to your palate?] Balima

No, I want to eat it as soon as possible.

Let me eat now.

In Balima-san’s words, everyone starts eating bread dipped in what appears to be curry. Imitating everyone, I grabbed the bread, then dunked the bread on what seems to be curry and ate it. The spicy and nostalgic taste explodes in my mouth.

………This is definitely ………Curry.

No way, I never thought I would find it here.

[Yuna-san, what’s wrong?] Karina

Karina asks, while I’m being immersed in the excitement of encountering curry.

[Karina, what is this?] Yuna

[It’s called curry. Did you not like it?] Karina

[It’s delicious.] Yuna

[That’s good. It is very delicious.] Karina

Karina also eats bread with curry, she’s making it looks delicious. I continue eating curry on bread. It was delicious.

With this, I can make curry pan, curry udon and curry rice.

Everything looks delicious.

[Karina, do you know how to make this?] Yuna

[Um, the curry?] Karina

[Yeah, if you know the ingredients, I’d like to go buy some.] Yuna

Spices are sold because they are also used for cooking.

However, curry powder is made by mixing various spices.

I have it in my knowledge, but that doesn’t mean that I can make curry from spices.

So, if you’re selling curry powder, I would like to buy some.

[Um, I’m sorry…. Rasa!] Karina

Karina is panicking a little, she calls out to Rasa-san for help.

Rasa-san moved away from her seat.

[What do you need, Karina-sama?] Rasa

[Yuna-san wants to know how make curry.] Karina

[Curry is it?] Rasa

[I would like to know the ingredients, are there other good spices? Where are they selling it?] Yuna

[Well, we do sell spices, but to make this curry, we mix various spices, so they are not being sold to shops.] Rasa

Its not being sold…….

No way…

You cannot buy it……

….But you can make it.

[Can you tell me which spices to use?] Yuna

[Because this spice is an important recipe taught by my mother.] Rasa

An important recipe from her mom.

Then maybe…

[I’m sorry to hear that.] Yuna

[Oh, I’m sorry, don’t get me wrong. My mother is still alive.] Rasa

[Alive?] Yuna

This is confusing.

I thought she was dead.

[Yes, she’s fine. I decided to work for this mansion and then she taught me the recipe as a congratulatory gift. My mother made this curry when there was a celebration in my house.] Rasa

Though I understand that the recipe was important for Rasa-san, but…

[Let me tell you a story, this recipe is……] Rasa

There is a way to ask Balima-san for the reward of a request, but this is sneaky, it takes advantage of the weakness of the person and he becomes the least human.

There is no other way…

Money?

As a person, that would be no good.

You can’t buy people’s important things with money.

…….It’s no use.

I can’t think of anything.

But I want to know.
