Isekai Yururi Kikou ~Raising Children While Being an Adventurer~

can only experiment with this.
Also, let’s use the Aging magic to shorten the cooking time.

“Oh~ it started smelling good.
I wonder about the taste…——”

Magic really is convenient at times like this.
It would normally take several hours to cook, but I am able to shorten the time enormously.
The Wild Ape meat became quite tender and I did not feel any foulness from the Armored Buffalo.
Both tasted good and seemed to be quite compatible with rice.

“Allen too~”
“Elena too~”
“Yes, yes.
—— Look, it’s hot so eat after cooling it down.”
“”Yea!””

Allen and Elena wanted to taste it too, so when I handed them the spoons with the meat, the children blew on it and then stuffed their cheeks.

“”Hafuu~””
“!! Takumi, me too!”
“Takumi-dono, I would like to taste it as well.”

Looking at the children’s reaction, Al-sama and Kevin-sama demanded to do the tasting too.

“… Your Highness.”
“… Kevin.”
“It smells this nice, and the kids made such reaction, you know? It makes you want to eat it immediately!”

Najack-sama and Claudio-sama seemed exhausted from the two’s reaction, but when I handed over spoons for tasting to Al-sama and Kevin-sama, the two have also immediately received them.
It seems that Najack-sama and Claudio-sama were also curious about the taste.

“””D, delicious!””””

The four expressed their impressions, it seems they like it.

“Takumi, is this made with the flavoring called soy sauce?”
“Yes, indeed it is.
As expected of you, Al-sama.
You could tell right away.”
“As I thought! The recent topic in the Capital has been a stall that sold dishes made with soy sauce, after all.
I had a certain feeling that the taste was similar.
But, Takumi’s cooking is remarkably delicious! Just as I expected… no, your cooking ability far exceeds my expectations.”
“That’s… I am glad to hear that.”

Far from liking it, he seems to be considerably pleased with it.

“How about the other one, Takumi.”
“Look forward the meal for that one.”
“Kuh.”

Al-sama wanted to taste the miso-flavored Motsu too, but I will have him endure.

“Umm… what next?”

I believe that a meat stew and salad would not be enough, so I would like to make one more thing.
But, as the people here seemed to be eager to eat, I decided to leave it with a simple soup with plenty of vegetables.

“Shall we eat then?”
“”Foo~d.””
“So it’s done!”

After finishing the soup and preparing a freshly-baked bread, I called everyone and they quickly gathered around.
After I served the meal, everyone immediately began to eat.

“”Onii~chan, Onii~chan.””

“N? What’s the matter?”
“”Want rice!””

As expected of Allen and Elena.
Rice really goes along with sinewy meat.
I thought so too, but… as usual, I thought I could not let the guys eat White Wheat which is considered a fodder, so I prepared bread instead.

“Takumi, what’s this ‘rice’ the kids are talking about?”
“It’s softly cooked White Wheat.”
“White Wheat? That White Wheat?”
“I don’t know what you mean by ‘that’ but it’s the White Wheat that is used as fodder for animals.”
“Right, that! You going to eat it?”
“It’s delicious, you know? Err… would you like to try it?”

I offered the rice to Al-sama after handing a bowl to Allen and Elena.
Al-sama received it with great interest.

“Your Highness!?”
“What, Takumi is saying that it’s delicious, so it will be fine, no? Takumi, why don’t you give this ‘rice’ to Najack and others too, if you still have more?”
“Ah!”

Najack-sama did try to stop him from eating the White Rice, but after Al-sama told me to give Najack-sama and others the rice too, he promptly started eating the rice.

“Nn!!”
“””Your Highness!?”””

The knights panicked because Al-sama suddenly groaned.

“T, this is tasty!! The compatibility of this rice with the Wild Ape meat is extraordinary!”
“Y, your Highness… don’t startle us like that.”
“N? What are you groaning about, Najack.
You guys give it a try too.”

When the three knights tasted the rice after being pressed by Al-sama, the three opened their eyes wide.

“See? Isn’t it delicious?”
“… Yes.”

Al-sama and the knights were pleased with the rice and the Wild Ape meat that I made in a slightly larger quantity got cleaned up prettily.
It seems that everyone was satisfied.
