Tensei Reijou wa Shomin no Aji ni Uete Iru

Ah, Sei… -sama.”
“Were you called by Teacher Neil as well, Miss Cristea? We had a meal with Teacher Neil yesterday too, but… it would be better for you to get barraged with questions.”

Whoah… as I thought.
Looking at Sei’s fed up expression, he must have been quite obstinate.

“I told him that things don’t work the same way back in my country so I won’t be able of reference, so I was able to resist a little, but you might encounter trouble, Miss Cristea.”

Ehhhh… being questioned during the meal is bothersome.
He’s probably going to ask how I established the contracts with the Sacred Beasts, but… it’s not like I can tell him that I was introduced to them by one of Sei’s contracted beasts, Byakko-sama.
I can’t also tell him that they decided to form a contract with me because they like the dishes I make because of my magical power in them, as it won’t be of any help.
Seeing me so troubled, Mashiro and Kurogane moved to both of my sides.

“You need not worry, Lord.
Just do as you please.”
“That’s right.
We will shut him up if needed.”

Nono, Mr.
Mashiro!
How are you planning on shutting him up?
Let’s stop with the violence, okay!?

“… Thank you.
I will try to deal with him suitably by myself.”

“That’s fine.”
“Cristea, you can always rely on us.”
“Y, yeah…”

As I was overwhelmed by Mashiro’s uneasy remarks, we arrived at the door next to the lounge.

“Oh, you are here! Come here, come here!”

Following Teacher Neil who beckoned us, we entered the room where a big dining table with food was set.

“This is a conference room, but there were no contractors for many years.
It might be good to start using it as a dining room instead!”

Teacher Neil said so with a smile on his face, but nono, it might be fine as an occasional activity, but I would like to restrain from dining together with you, Teacher Neil!

“I don’t know your preferences yet, so I ordered the same menu for everyone, is that fine? Come, why don’t you sit down, everyone.”

Teacher Neil sat down on the so-called birthday seat, while Sei’s group and my group sat facing each other.
