Chapter 308

308 Bear-san Encounters the Long-Awaited Curry .

I entered the dining room with Karina .

[Yuna-san, please sit here . ] Karina

Sitting as I was told, Karina happily sits next to me .

As soon as we sit in the chair, the door opens then Balima-san and Ristil-san enters the dining room .

Also, there is a little boy holding Ristil-san’s hand . Speaking of which, you did say that you have a 3-year-old son .

[Mother…] Boyo

When the boy saw me, he hid behind Ristil-san .

He must have been surprised by the appearance of the Bear .

Bears are scary so it can’t be helped .

[Fufu, it’s all right . Because it’s a cute bear . Yuna-chan, let me introduce you . This is my son Norris . C’mon, say hello . ] Ristil

Risti-san pushes the boy’s back in front of herself .

[Norris . ] Norris (TN Chuck?)

After the boy says his name in a small voice, he becomes flustered and hides behind Ristil-san .

[Um, I’m Yuna . Nice to meet you, too . ] Yuna

I introduced myself, but Norris just poked his face from behind her .

[I’m sorry this boy is a little shy . ] Ristil

Ristil-san takes Norris to his seat .

Bears have a big heart so don’t worry . (TN: only for lolis and probably shotas . )

I call it indifference .

[Karina seems to be in a good mood, did something good happened I wonder . ] Ristil

Seeing Karina sitting next to me, Ristil-san asks .

Maybe it was because Karina’s expression was so bright . Thanks to her playing with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, the childlike smile of Karina returned .

It seems that her stiff heart became a little soft .

[Yes, I got along with Yuna-san’s Bears . They were so fluffy and comfy . ] Karina

[That’s good then, thank you, Yuna-chan . She’s been gloomy ever since that incident . ] Ristil

Ristil-san smiled and thanked me .

When I first met Karina, her expression was so dark like its the end of her world . It was a good idea to let her play with Swaying Bear and Hugging Bear, so that she would get distracted .

When everyone gets to their seats, Rasa-san carries the food on a trolley .

A certain smell drifts from Rasa-san .

What’s that smell?

Really?

No way, can I really find it here?

Rasa-san placed bread, salads and a bit of food in front of me . And she placed something similar to ochre-curry-like-soup on the plate .

At that moment, the nostalgic smell stimulates my nose .

It’s been a long time since I smelled this scent .

……… This is definitely ……… Curry .

I stared at the soup that smells like curry . The color and the smell this is definitely curry . Now if the taste is different, it’ll be enough to sue for fraud .

But there are no other ingredients in it .

It feels like its not a curry that I know of .

When I’m investigating the , Rasa-san speaks .

[Please put it on the bread and eat it . ] Rasa

Teaching me how to eat curry, of all things .

After all the food has been distributed to everyone, Rasa-san sits in the corner of the table . Apparently the house’s servant Rasa-san, also eats with them .

[Well then, Yuna-san, was it not to your palate?] Balima

No, I want to eat it as soon as possible .

Let me eat now .

In Balima-san’s words, everyone starts eating bread dipped in what appears to be curry . Imitating everyone, I grabbed the bread, then dunked the bread on what seems to be curry and ate it . The spicy and nostalgic taste explodes in my mouth .

………This is definitely ………Curry .

No way, I never thought I would find it here .

[Yuna-san, what’s wrong?] Karina

Karina asks, while I’m being immersed in the excitement of encountering curry .

[Karina, what is this?] Yuna

[It’s called curry . Did you not like it?] Karina

[It’s delicious . ] Yuna

[That’s good . It is very delicious . ] Karina

Karina also eats bread with curry, she’s making it looks delicious . I continue eating curry on bread . It was delicious .

With this, I can make curry pan, curry udon and curry rice .

Everything looks delicious .

[Karina, do you know how to make this?] Yuna

[Um, the curry?] Karina

[Yeah, if you know the ingredients, I’d like to go buy some . ] Yuna

Spices are sold because they are also used for cooking .

However, curry powder is made by mixing various spices .

I have it in my knowledge, but that doesn’t mean that I can make curry from spices .

So, if you’re selling curry powder, I would like to buy some .

[Um, I’m sorry… . Rasa!] Karina

Karina is panicking a little, she calls out to Rasa-san for help .

Rasa-san moved away from her seat .

[What do you need, Karina-sama?] Rasa

[Yuna-san wants to know how make curry . ] Karina

[Curry is it?] Rasa

[I would like to know the ingredients, are there other good spices? Where are they selling it?] Yuna

[Well, we do sell spices, but to make this curry, we mix various spices, so they are not being sold to shops . ] Rasa

Its not being sold…… .

No way…

You cannot buy it……

… . But you can make it .

[Can you tell me which spices to use?] Yuna

[Because this spice is an important recipe taught by my mother . ] Rasa

An important recipe from her mom .

Then maybe…

[I’m sorry to hear that . ] Yuna

[Oh, I’m sorry, don’t get me wrong . My mother is still alive . ] Rasa

[Alive?] Yuna

This is confusing .

I thought she was dead .

[Yes, she’s fine . I decided to work for this mansion and then she taught me the recipe as a congratulatory gift . My mother made this curry when there was a celebration in my house . ] Rasa

Though I understand that the recipe was important for Rasa-san, but…

[Let me tell you a story, this recipe is……] Rasa

There is a way to ask Balima-san for the reward of a request, but this is sneaky, it takes advantage of the weakness of the person and he becomes the least human .

There is no other way…

Money?

As a person, that would be no good .

You can’t buy people’s important things with money .

…… . It’s no use .

I can’t think of anything .

But I want to know .

Yet I don’t want to force her .

Here, depending on whether I can get a curry powder recipe, my life in another world will change .

Uuuuuuuuuuu, what should I do!?

[I know Rasa takes good care of this recipe, but can’t you tell Yuna-san?] Karina

While I’m having a conflict in my heart, Karina sent me a rescue boat .

[Karina-sama… . . ] Rasa

[Um, can I please?] Yuna

I have no idea what I could do to make Rasa-san agree, so I’ll just ask .

Rasa-san looks at Karina and me alternately . Then, she sigh a little .

[……I understand . ] Rasa

[Are you sure?] Yuna

Somehow, I asked Karina to ask Rasa-san and she was forced to teach me .

[Yes, However, there are conditions . ] Rasa

[Conditions?] Yuna

[In exchange for teaching you the recipe, I would like you to teach me a recipe for a dish that I don’t know . I’d like to offer new dishes to Karina-sama . ] Rasa

[Dishes that Rasa-san doesn’t know…] Yuna

Certainly, it is a more sensible idea to exchange for a recipe than money .

But a recipe? Hmmmm… .

[Yes, please show me a delicious dish . ] Rasa

[Isn’t that difficult? Rasa is studying cooking in many ways . ] Karina

[Yes, that’s an important recipe after all . ] Rasa

Karina told me about Rasa-san’s diligence in cooking . It seems unlikely that Rasa-san herself will teach easily . But, conversely, if I teach a cooking recipe that convinces Rasa-san, she will tell me the curry spice recipe .

But studying cooking doesn’t mean you can’t use ordinary ingredients .

I have the knowledge of earth in my hand . There are many recipes that Karina doesn’t know .

However, there are many cases where it cannot be made due to problems with materials or equipment . Even though I have the knowledge of making curry, I cannot make curry without the spices .

First of all, I do not know the type and name of the spices here .

The problem is what food to teach .

Something that Rasa-san, who is studying cooking, doesn’t know and it needs to be delicious… .

With that, the choices became limited .

Currently, I can make pizza, pudding, or cake .

There is a problem with the material, but it is likely to be an equivalent exchange as the most traded .

[Can I use sweets?] Yuna

[Yes, it doesn’t matter . ] Rasa

[Well, can I have you eat it after the meal?] Yuna

[Um, are you going to make it now?] Rasa

I shake my head .

[I have something ready, and I’ll give it to you after your meal . If Rasa-san doesn’t know the food and if it’s delicious, please teach me the curry recipe . ] Yuna

[Yes, I understand . ] Rasa

She made a firm promise .

Everyone here is a witness .

[Does Yuna-san knows how to cook?] Karina

[Yeah, I made it myself . ] Yuna

I often eat Morin-san’s bread and Anzu’s dishes, but sometimes I make and eat my own food .

I often cook my own dishes, especially rice .

I also make sweets for Fina and the others .

However, since it is troublesome to make it, I only make a small number of batches every time .

[Yuna-san is a strange person . She looks like a Bear, a strong adventurer and can also cook . I can’t do anything . ] Karina

[Well then, if my food judged by Rasa-san passed, why don’t we make it together tomorrow?] Yuna

[Are you sure?] Karina

[If I get a passing mark, I’ll have to teach it to Rasa-san . ] Yuna

I thought it was going to be just a city exploration, but it turns out I’ll be getting a curry recipe .

Exploration can be done even after the request is over . There is only curry for now .

Rasa-san’s feelings may change .

Then I resume eating curry on bread .

It was delicious .

I have to get it .

After enjoying the curry, I put a pudding and a spoon in front of everyone .

Curry spice recipes and pudding recipes should be equivalent in value .

However, value rises endlessly according to people’s wishes . Pudding is worth it, but it doesn’t really matter to me .

However, Rasa-san’s curry spice recipe was a family’s passion .

All I have to do is let Rasa-san understands it .

[Oh, is it okay for us as well?] Balima

[Yes, please try it too . If it tastes good, please help me persuade Rasa-san . ] Yuna

[Well, okay sure . I’ll make a fair decision . ] Balima

[Rasa-san, have you seen this food?] Yuna

[I haven’t, this is my first time seeing it . ] Rasa

Well, of course… . If you have seen it before, I’ll be in trouble .

[This is……」Balima

But Balima-san responds while examining the pudding .

Are~… Did you perhaps know what that is?

[Oh right! From the time of Follout-sama’s birthday celebration!] Balima

Oh, Balima-san . Did you perhaps attended the King’s birthday party?

[Dear do you know what this is?] Ristil

[Oh, it’s a dish that was served during Follout-sama’s birthday celbration . It was very tasty, it made quite the commotion . ] Balima

Rasa-san made a surprised expression when she learned that this dish made its appearance at the King’s birthday party .

[Why do you have this, Yuna-san?] Balima

Hmm, what should I do?

[I want you to keep this secret, I was the one who made it . ] Yuna

[I think I understand why Follout-sama hid the information . ] Balima

Balima-san looks at me and the pudding alternately .

[Yuna-san, have you ever cooked for the King?] Karina

[A few times . Well, what are you waiting for, please try it . ] Yuna

It is difficult to explain my relationship with the King, so I urge them to eat the pudding to dodge the topic .

[Mother, this is delicious . ] Norris

Norris, who ate the pudding before anyone else, answers with a full smile .

Then the others started eating as well .

[It is so delicious . ] Karina

[Ara, Dear you ate such a delicious thing before?] Ristil

[It’s a dish that was served at the birthday celebration of Follout-sama . ] Balima

[It is really delicious!] Rasa

Popular words came out from Rasa-san .

[I’ll teach you this recipe . ] Yuna

[Are you sure? This is a dish that was served at the castle of El Fancia Kingdom, isn’t it? Moreover, Follout-sama’s said . ] Balima

[Well, because I’m the one who made it, I am free to teach it to anyone . Besides Rasa-san won’t teach it to anyone that easily . ] Yuna

[Yes, of course I will not do such a thing . I’m just happy if Karina-sama is eating delicious food . ] Rasa

At that moment, the recipe trade off was completed .

I thank Rasa-san .
