Chapter 256: The Kannaoi of fire and oil (1/2)

Chapter 256: The Kannaoi of fire and oil

Hearing both the report of Beren and the talk of the sword, I could feelsteadily But salvation descended upon me

Pin Pon

The sound of a chi, and after that, a voice called out

It is the waitress

A call telling us that the o

Beren’s report had been turning into a lecture about the history of the dwarf blacksood ti

This sword, that’s na about his own personal history in a merry manner

If I keep a bit calm and composed, and simply whisper inside my heart what I think, he won’t hear it, but if I don’t put , it will be picked up by hi with the sword are like that

Obviously, I have only tested it a bit and checked its reaction, so I ht be mistaken

But…because the inside of my head has already been read by third parties so s But well, since there’s the part about privacy, it is a plus that I have found a safe sphere in this mental conversations

“Then, ill continue after eating, how about it, Waka?” (To it now then” (Makoto)

“Yes” (Tos the room’s chime to request the preparation of the meal

A few minutes after…

A number of people I don’t knohere they were in standby had entered into the shed along with the scent of food

This is the shed and the corridor is quite long, so in what kind of way did they get here so fast?

This level of speed could be considered a feat already

The darkness of the service business is deep

It surpasses the line of being impressive and turns into scary

H?” (Makoto)

As if natural, Beren, Hokuto, and shi+ stood up and were about to leave the roo to eat now

“We were thinking about eating in a separate rooether with Waka-sama would be too much of an honor”

“…Hah? I don’t really ether The food tastes better when everyone eats together” (Makoto)

“B-But…”

“It is fine I don’tfor your opinions on it later, so we can do that while eating and that will save time Tomoe is interested in what Hokuto and shi+ have to say, so we can get so See? Lots of benefits” (Makoto)

…Regarding To what dishes she likes thethe me aside, I pity Iroha-chan

I want to avoid the route where Toht

I will have these three work as lightning rods– no, as insurance in case Tomoe isn’t satisfied with only her portion Yes, insurance

Well, what I said a o was also how I truly felt

“I-Is it really okay to accompany you?”

“Of course” (Makoto)

“Too long-winded Waka said it was okay-ja Just sit already” (Toe our clothes i you to sit down, right? Good grief Also, we are all family here There’s no need to ht, Waka-sa Beren and the others who are crazy nervous

Mio did so them swim in midair, and had the as the results are good…

After that, I nod at the words of Mio

“Everyone from the company is like family, so there’s no need toour meal in a japanese-style hotel, so they will probably be bringing the dishes in small trays We will probably have respective trays for each one of us

In that case, we can just eat withoutmuch

It is exactly as Mio said, we are all family, so there’s no need to mind our clothes

“Pardon the intrusion Is everyone going to be having their meal here?”

“Yeah, please do the preparations”

I nod at the waitress-san that asked for confir this, she turns her gaze towards the corridor

“Hoh?” (Tomoe)

Toht so that seems to betable

Eh? Could this be…

“There’s a small space between the table and this Is this a part of tonight’s plans for dinner?” (Tomoe)

“Yes This is a device that is used around Kannaoi since a long past Like this…”

No doubt about it

In the middle of her explanation, the waitress-san places a hand on the round shaped ‘table’ and turns it

Just as Tomoe said, there’s a space in between, so the round shaped table revolved

It is not like I have seen it thatyou see at chinese restaurants

In that case, today’s dinner is not japanese-style…but chinese?!

So it really is a chinese restaurant!

I cos like nabe and sashi+ tray, it re about a feast, it has to be chinese food’, maybe a Wise from that kind of era was involved in the food here

“It is rotating” (Tomoe)

“Yes The dishes are placed here and distributed in order It serves for that function”

An expected explanation

And while at it, thelined up one after the other

Dishes that are considered the art of fire and oil, in a sense, nostalgic dishes

By the hen it is called chinese food it ed to fit the taste of the japanese, and when it is called chinese cuisine it means that the food is uy in my archery club that was specially fussy about this

He was saying things like: ‘don’t nonchalantly go to stores thatlike that

I didn’t understand what he meant

In the first place, is sichuan cuisine and chinese cuisine any different?

Chinese food will obviously be different though

Mapo tofu tastes good though, is that so bad?

For so about a pointless mystery

“Sauteed octopus, deep fried chicken, and that’s…sweet-and-sour pork? Ah, ebi chili! I see, so that was chinese too Also…mayonnaise shrimp? Isn’t that from the Heisei era? I hope it doesn’t simply look like mayonnaise shriet angry with you if that’s true, okay “mayonnaise shrimp”?” (Makoto)

“There’s dishes here that you can easily find in other restaurants around the city, but all the ones here are redients and by the nue I can vouch that this will definitely becooodit”

The waitress-san turned her gaze and ently smile at me when she heard about how I knew a nuave supple: ‘our food is different from other places, you know Hehe’

Ah, the fried rice arrives

A fragrant scent… This…it sed the soy sauce

That

Nice nice

Might be a particular style of this world though

And there’s also…is that the dessert?

Annin tofu and Agar are cut in cubes and floating in so with some fruits, like a chinese-style fruit punch

This is a guess that relies on a past that already feels pretty far, but it is probably not so off

Next is…the black and big iron pot that has so sounds The looks are similar to mapo tofu

But a part of it is different from the one in my memories

A darkish powder has been sprinkled all over it, and maybe it was cooked beforehand, there’s clear vivid red chili pepper placed on the sides

Well, that’s probably decoration

It seems like there’s retful-type of mapo tofu?

In the end, the round table that was pretty big was lined up with dishes one after the other, and after preparing a massive amount of plates, the waitresses left

I woke up Iroha-chan, and after the custoan dinner in our first day at Kannaoi, at this room that’s completely filled with the scent of chinese food

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

When there’s a rotating tray, the revolving will create fights

The moment Tomoe and Mio were atas simple as what direction I turn it to, sparks would fly

I moved away as soon as possible, so it ended only as sparks though

It is true that going around and around is a pretty interesting gimmick, and as a result, everyone had fun with it

The food was ood as well

It was truly chinese food

The bon bon chicken was good, the sweet-and-sour pork was on the sour-side which is toone was carefully made and the skin was crispy No complains

It must be made differently compared to the deep-fried chicken until now It was cut in chunks after all
