Chapter 218 (1/2)
Break
After seeing the children off, I immediately got to work.
”Now then, let's do this.”
The ingredients… meat, let's see~ maybe I should use bird meat and make a chicken sandwich?
A simple grilled one seasoned with salt, sandwiched between lettuce and mayonnaise. Ah~… but wouldn't the taste of salt be difficult to discern if I use mayonnaise? But, I would prefer using mayonnaise~
All right, let's think about this later!
”A type of bird meat, let's see…”
Oh! We got plenty of c.o.c.katrice meat in a dungeon!
”Oh, what a nice smell.”
Rudolph-san approached as I started grilling the meat.
”Tak.u.mi, what kind of meat is that?”
”Err… It's a c.o.c.katrice.”
”……”
For a moment, I was worried about what to say, but when I told Rudolph-san what kind of meat it was, he sunk into silence. Wasn't c.o.c.katrice a B-ranked monster? Is this too much?
I have usually talked with the Ruven family about what kind of meat I was going to use, but I remember hearing that the n.o.bility often eat the meat of B-ranked monsters.
”You seemed to be hesitating to speak up, so you are aware that it's not meat you would usually use, right?”
”Do ranked adventurers not eat the meat of B-ranked monsters often?”
”Only sometimes when I splurge, but I rarely get to eat it.”
”… Is that so?”
Unlike the n.o.bility, adventurers bring down the monsters themselves, so I thought that it wouldn't be so unusual for the top cla.s.s adventurers to eat B-ranked monster's meat often… it seems that I was wrong.
”Ah, yeah, there's no problem for you guys to eat good quality meat. Just be aware that it's not the usual thing to do.”
”… Roger that.”
It means that it would be better to use C-ranked meat the next time we eat in front of other people!
”Isn't it good already?”
”Indeed, it's grilled.”
