Thinking that we couldn’t see him off, we said goodbye to Rudolph-san and were brought by Kevin-san and Quigg-san to the Feudal Lord’s mansion .
When we were directed to the lounge, I saw a middle-aged man, who I think might be the Feudal Lord, talking to Austin-sama .
“Takumi-dono, long time no see!”
“… So it was Austin-sama . It’s been a while . Oh, it would be helpful if you called me without honorifics . ”
When Austin-sama saw us, he shook my head with a refreshing smile .
“Well then, Takumi . I’m glad you seem to be in good health . Allen, Elena, were you doing well?”
“”Yeah, doing well~””
“Is that so?”
Austin-sama patted the heads of Allen and Elena who stood on my sides .
“Marquis Stanval, this is Takumi . They are his younger siblings Allen and Elena . ——Takumi, this is Kelm’s Feudal Lord, Marquis Marcus Stanval . ”
“Marquis Stanval? Eh? Umm, Lilika-sama’s?”
“”Lilika-sama!””
The Feudal Lord smiled gently in confirmation .
It appears that the Feudal Lord of Kelm is Lilika-sama’s father .
“N? Marquis Stanval, are you already acquintanced with Takumi?”
“No, this is my first time meeting with Takumi-dono . We have been given a Pastel Rabbit by Takumi-dono before, though . ”
“Oh, a Pastel Rabbit! My Mother and Wife also got one each, they both love them to death . ”
“My daughter also loves it so much she brings it everywhere . ”
It looks like the Pastel Rabbits are being loved as they should .
“”Is Fleur well~?””
“Yes, Fleur is doing well . Once again, Takumi-dono, it’s my honor to meet you . I’m truly grateful that you fulfilled my daughter’s wish . ”
“Nono, I was searching for potential owners, so I was really helped . ”
“But, later on, my daughter asked of you something selfish, right? Sorry about that . ”
“Erm, is it about her cousin wanting a Pastel Rabbit too? If that’s the case then you don’t have to worry as it was an official request . ”
I had a condition that we would search the forest only once and she would not ask for it anymore if we didn’t find any, plus we were properly rewarded for finding the Pastel Rabbit .
“Moreover, you have provided her with dessert recipes at a tea party, right?”
“Ah, yes, I handed them to everyone who participated at the tea party . ”
“Oh my? Was that so? Our chefs recreated the recipes and I had some too, all of them were phenomenal . ”
“I’m glad to hear that . ”
If I’m not mistaken, that time… I handed out recipes for the pound cakes, cookies, and ice cream .
“It’s unfortunate I wasn’t able to participate at the luncheon that day . I couldn’t help but feel frustrated~ Those who participated were praising something called curry and rice very highly, so I found it regrettable~”
“Huh? The Fiji Company is already selling curry powder and I also taught everyone how to cook curry… was it not conveyed to you, Marquis Stanval?”
“What!? Is that the truth?”
It seems he wasn’t informed .
“Come to think of it, I have never eaten this thing called curry too~ Takumi, could it be made in time for dinner?”
“Yes, I think it will be fine . Err, the recipe… oh, here it is . ”
I prepared a lot of papers with recipes on them for the tea party and luncheon, so I still have a few sheets left . I took it out from my Infinite Storage and placed it on the table .
“This is the recipe for curry . Err, do you need curry powder?”
“Oh my, you won’t be making it yourself, Takumi?”
“Eh!? Nonono! There’s no way I can simply enter the kitchen of the house I have visited for the first time, right!?”
“There’s no problem to do that here . ”
Nono, there’s a big problem, right!?
“T, that reminds me, you have not told me the reason you have came to Kelm yet, Austin-sama! What’s the matter?”
I forcibly changed the subject .
“Takumi went out and he was brought here right after returning . It can’t be helped, so let’s leave it at that today . However, I will be asking you tomorrow . ”
“Eh, tomorrow!?”
“Yes, please!”
Austin-sama smiled wholeheartedly . His expression told me that he won’t back down more .
