423 419. Family restaurant in another world.txt (2/2)

He said it was sweet and delicious, but he didn't seem to like it that much.

Basically, the intensity of the flavor must be different in the two worlds.

'Mmmm, muggy ....... Okay, next!　Go ahead, Mr. Chairman!

Quuner ate about half of his food and then sloshed his parfait over to me.

I suppose they want to eat a variety of dishes, but I'm a little taken aback by their relentless passing.

Most importantly--

I hate to say it, but ......, do you know what an 'indirect kiss' is?

'Yeah, I know, but ....... Are you old enough to care about those things?　If you say you don't like the insanitary nature of your guess, I'll stop sharing it, but I'll stop sharing it: ......

It seemed to require a minimum level of courtesy, but she didn't seem to mind.

Rather, the culture and customs of other worlds probably have a low hurdle to sharing meals.

So the only one who has a problem right now is me.

No, I don't mind. I don't care about it, at all.

Seriously, you care about that?　It's scary how much the chairman's mentality about that kind of thing can get you here: ......!　Isn't the Chairman's way of life and values too unbalanced compared to his power and experience?

'No, no, you've always been bad at this sort of thing. ...... Of course, I'm okay with it.

Seriously scared of Kounell, she was a little strong and took a spoonful of the rest of the parfait into her mouth.

She tantalized her tongue with the cream, which she rated as too sweet.

'Oh, it's sweet. Yes, it was this sweet: ......'

The cream melted in his mouth along with a soft milk taste.

It spread out to envelop the entire organ of taste, slowly penetrating it.

The sweetness that reaches the core of my tongue robs my whole body of strength. I almost dropped my spoon even now. I swallowed the cream and took a breath, and the sweet smell passed through my nose.

A dazzling sense of happiness.

For me, it was just the right amount of sweetness.

But it really is amazing.

Even though it's been a thousand years since this body has ingested the food of the 'original world', it's still only a few years in terms of experience.

To be honest, I hadn't expected this level of excitement.

After savoring the nostalgia and sweetness to taste, I try to move my spoon for two bites.

This time it's not just the cream, it's the fruit and the flakes.

But before I can do that, Kounel shouts out his thoughts on the second item.

'Mmmm!　This one is more palatable!　Bingo!　...... Amazing!　That's awesome!

Kounell was chewing on a piece of chocolate cake and raving about it.

'Heh, that's a bit surprising. We didn't have any chocolate on the other side. I honestly thought it might make me feel bad.'

This fluffy, sweet, yet nutty flavor ......?　The flavors, it's very safe. Maybe it's because there are so many nutty dishes here.

'Could it be that there were nuts from the same tree as the cocoa, if you searched the other world?

If I can afford it, it might be fun to find it and spread the chocolate culture over there.

As I was pondering this, Kounel ate the cake in two bites and took a breath that was many times bigger than mine.

''Phew!　Oishii!

She, too, seems to be happy with the smell that fills her nostrils.

It can be seen from his loose face.

Then, having eaten the dessert first, Kounel reaches for the soup, the third dish.

I watch the situation, thinking that his personality is showing in that order.

''Hm?　On the contrary, ......, this authentic miso soup. This is a bit harsh.

Dexterously holding the bowl, Kounel sips the miso soup (I spread it out a thousand years ago, so Kounel can use chopsticks, too). But it was only a bite away.

'What? You can't have miso soup?　It tastes so warm and soothing.

It's thick. It's pungent. It's kind of unsettling, .......

That's ridiculous.

Leaving the parfait behind, I get my hands on the miso soup.

And what spreads in my mouth is the best taste I'm used to as a Japanese.

I thought it would be a bad idea to eat it with the handicap of being after the parfait, but the soup had an absolute stability to it that overturned that common sense.

'Oh ......, it's so calming. Thanks to the id, miso soup was widespread, but I still prefer Japanese miso. It's a little different, but it's soothing to the body. ......

Even though Kounell's rating score was bad, the miso soup was the highest score for me.

It was a relief to find out that the miso soup wasn't bad, just a different taste.

Meanwhile, Kounel was working on the fourth item of steak.

He chewed and shredded the meat with his sharp teeth and spoke while eating without behaving.

''Mmmmmm?　The quality of the meat isn't much different, but the seasoning is nice!　No. Is it a cooking method issue?　Let's see, this meat is ...... and, come to think of it, there's no edible monster meat here at all, is there?

Kounel spreads out the menu and enjoys the meat while reading it.

From the distraction of his concentration, he doesn't seem to score too high on the steak.

''None. But you can eat a lot of things like chicken, pork and fish instead. Here.

I point to the picture on the menu, wondering if it's the wrong kind of meat.

'Oh, here. They all have different kinds of meat. I guess that's because the distribution is excellent. Then--

He thought they were all the same kind of meat.

After correcting his mistake, Kounell asks for an additional order of pork, which is a lesser variety in the 'other world' over there.

And when I tried to press the call button to call the waiter again--

'Mr. Chairman!　Let me push that!

I know the feeling.

I've heard the kids of the family guest over there make the exact same argument.

When it's your first time, that request is inevitable.

When I show him how to do it, Quuner happily mouthed the words, ”Pop it,” while pushing hard.

'Heh heh,'

Then, with a grin on his face, he shook his body from side to side and waited for the shopkeeper to arrive from afar, and as soon as he arrived, he said, ”I'll have this! He ordered with a big smile on his face.

The waitress looked at him with a smile, agreed, and walked away.

'Good!　While we're waiting for the new meat, let's make sure we have all the meat types we have now!

The underrated food would be passed around to me as I got my hands on the hamburgers and teriyaki on the table (Kounell made sure to cut it up properly before eating it. But even then, sharing the meal was ...... a little embarrassing. (That's just the nature of it).

I'm already eating the parfait later.

Part of it is that I'm a bit of a sweet tooth, but I simply prefer dessert to be last.

I hadn't planned to eat in earnest, but caught by the sight of Kounel's voracious appetite, I now make up my mind to eat the day's food.

''Here it comes!

Kounel would be happy to press the call button, order her own food and receive it herself.

She receives her food with great joy, and proportionately, the waiter who watches her reach the highest level of harmony.

Combined with the power of Tida's mask, Kounel's appearance now was a perfect child itself.

Including her gestures, no one would be able to tell that she was an old lady over a hundred years old.

In fact, now I almost lose sight of the fact that Kounel is a cunning politician.

It was so cute to watch her gobble up her diverse meals with such relish.

I'm convinced - and made to believe - that there is no one more happy and at ease to eat with than her (・・・・・・・).

Without a doubt, this is the most powerful weapon of the bloodsucking species known as Kounel Chronicle Shulus Legia Ingrid.

I've been attacked once by a Ragne guy with a similar weapon, so I know what she's trying to do.

I understand, but .......

For now, I'm going to dare to expose myself to that weapon and enjoy this time.

--You will find that each and every dish in this ”original world” is filled with memories.

The old days of being a hermit. I used to love to eat retort curry and ramen.

Seeing the actual food in front of me reminds me of how much I was addicted to junk food back then.

I think Yotaki was a thin eater and always ate only salads.

No, that was an act. If he wanted to eat, he could have eaten as much as he wanted.

I'm sure he just didn't have the time or need for it.

In comparison, my parents were big eaters and ate nothing but expensive steaks.

When I lived in that fancy apartment, there was an array of sumptuous meals every day.

But now his parents would be in jail, so the food would be pretty simple.

I'm a little worried that they might be too proud to eat it.

Oh, I really miss it.

I can't wait to see my parents--.

”-- it's better (・・・・・・・) not to meet (・・・・)

On the way, face-to-face, Kounell stabbed a word like a blade.
