The polar bear's recipe, "Sumr Hunt," beca imnsely popular.
While the price of affogato made with gelato and espresso is expensive, Sumr Hunt was only half the price.
Simply making a Maxim coffee and asking the polar bear would give you the amazing experience of having it frozen on the spot.
Above all.
"Bolitur, one Sumr Hunt please!"
"...Understood."
Chirrup─!
"Ugh, so refreshing!"
The cold air coming from the coffee as it freezes blew away the heat.
Brrrrrr.
The refreshing chill felt through the clasped bear hands was exquisite.
"Oh my, the texture is so smooth."
"So this is why people eat Sumr Hunt."
Even the young ladies who used to enjoy affogato frequently ordered Sumr Hunt just to hold hands with Bolitur.
"Please wave at too!"
"Ahh!"
In the anti, due to those who went too far with inappropriate physical contact or boldly attempted to peek through holes, warning notices were posted.
● A polar bear is working inside.
● Don't startle the polar bears.
Perhaps it is because of the explosive popularity of the 'Polar Bear Cave Café'?
Wow! A Polar Bear Cave Café has been built in our neighborhood too!
"It's a Polar Bear Cave Café, so why is soone from the Miao ca out instead?"
"Maybe this isn't so bad after all..."
Various cafés headed by the different beast folks, have erged.
There even appeared 'hole-in-the-wall shops' that had a hole drilled into the wall on the street to do business.
While the popularity of Sumr Hunt was causing an increase in hole-in-the-wall shops, the White Tower was planning the official release of the real "Sumr Hunt."
Since Sumr Hunt was essentially made by freezing mixed coffee there were no difficulties in production.
The wrapping paper can be made using the dwarves' papermaking techniques.
Of course, it will take so ti to maintain the factory for mass production.
While the alchemists and dwarves were busy preparing for the sumr hunt, our Magic Tower family went to the beach for a vacation.
Caw, caw.
The sumr sky without a single cloud and the clear erald sea of another world were spread out before .
I lay under the shade of a tree and leisurely watched the beach.
Of course, I didn't ca to the vacation spot just to have fun.
If I wanted to play I would just lie in the garden of the tower; I wouldn't co all the way to the beach.
This was all to shoot an 'advertisent' for the release of Sumr Hunt.
'In sumr, we go to the beach.'
There is nothing like a beach to beat the heat in sumr season ads.
It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the models for the ads of 'cool sea' and 'cool outfits' were cheat codes for sumr hunt.
─Alright, Miss Bianca! Good!
─That bastard, is he filming that?
At the beach, Zion, holding a crystal orb, was posing for the cara with a wide grin on his face.
'At this rate, they'll get sucked into the crystal orb.'
The model for Sumr Hunt was Bianca, who beca famous from the Milk Calisthenics Song.
Bianca's abundance, reminiscent of bountiful milk, was perfect for the sumr advertisent.
'No, is it for all seasons?'
Bianca, who debuted in an advertisent with the Milk Calisthenics Song, entrusted her tavern to her father and was working part-ti as a crystal orb model.
Personally, I see it as a desirable choice.
Losing such talent to a tavern would be a trendous loss for the Empire as well.
Even though they were just splashing around, a miracle was happening where it looked like a photoshoot.
"...The view is nice."
I was leaning in the shade, blankly watching the sumr hunt advertisent.
Suddenly, a shadow fell over my head.
"What are you doing?"
"Working."
When I looked up, Aria was staring down at intently.
"Working while just laying around?"
"Just getting to the beach in the sumr is already a hassle."
"You're funny."
Ignoring Aria's scoff, I got up and took out the sumr hunt from the icebox.
"Want so?"
"Sure."
I tore open the wrapping and split the sumr hunt in half.
"Ugh."
I tried to divide it perfectly, but it didn't break as I intended.
I handed the noticeably smaller piece to Aria.
"Why is it smaller for ?"
"That's just how it is."
"Where does it say things have to be that way? Change it."
"No way."
Without giving her a chance to take it away, I bit it and Aria clicked her tongue.
In the end, Aria, who had given up and was sitting next to eating sumr hunt, suddenly asked with a curious expression.
"Why did you make it like this? Just make the shape properly and cut it in half."
"Then it wouldn't be fun. It has to have the thrill of splitting to be interesting."
"That's not fun at all."
"That's because you ate the smaller piece."
"What the heck is that? That's totally unfair."
"That's why it's interesting."
What made Sumr Hunt sell well was precisely this unfair distribution.
It was a wicked ice cream called Sumr Hunt, which was difficult to split in half, so one side usually ended up getting a larger portion.
Even if it were perfectly divided in half, due to the asymtrical shape, one side would inevitably have more.
Because of these characteristics, the sumr hunt was also called the friendship destroyer, and it was common for children to fight over size.
So there was a ti when they improved the shape to be perfectly halved...
Sales plumted.
In a way, it's like the principle of a lottery.
Just like scratching a lottery ticket with anticipation, sumr hunt was the sa.
Cutting it in half and having the bigger side win was another kind of fun besides the taste.
It's a kind of trivial entertainnt.
─Cut! The filming is all done!
Hearing Zion's voice, I got up from my seat.
*
The "Sumr Hunt" was trending in the Empire, but it was not a formally released processed food; it was a "recipe" for freezing Maxim Coffee.
Even that was a dish difficult to taste without a magic cold storage.
The advertisent for Sumr Hunt ca out around the ti the recipe was spreading.
[ Enjoy together! Sumr Hunt! ]
It was an advertisent showing Bianca, dressed lightly and revealing her smooth skin, getting tired from splashing in the water and sharing a sumr hunt with Lilith.
It was just a video of splashing around and eating ice cream, but...
"Huff!"
"This, this is the sumr hunt?!"
"...Shall we go to the beach?"
The advertisent for the sumr hunt, which could be considered radical for the Empire, shockingly etched itself into people's minds.
Thus, Bianca's Sumr Hunt advertisent garnered such an enormous response that it beca a hot topic in the Empire for a while.
"It's sumr hunt ti!"
"Wow, this even cos as a processed food."
As soon as Sumr Hunt was released, countless crowds flocked to the store to taste it.
"Cutting it like this is the right way, right?"
"That's right, it's about tearing and splitting it in the middle."
The citizens who saw the advertisent bought a sumr hunt and shared it with their close friends.
"I can't wait to see what it tastes like."
"It won't exactly taste just like Maxim, right?"
At first, the atmosphere among the people was warm and friendly.
The problem appeared after they split the sumr hunt.
"Um? Wait a minute! Doesn't this size seem a bit off?"
"Just eat it. You can't reattach sothing that's already co apart."
"...What did you say? Then why is it bigger for you?"
"It's a mistake, a mistake."
"Let's switch!"
"Haha, if you can take it, go ahead and try!"
A bizarre scene unfolded as they fought over the uncut sumr hunt or ran away with the larger half.
"You have to split it evenly. It's ice cream that can change in size."
"Leave it to . Even though It look like this... Hmm?"
"Haha! What did I say? You have to split it properly."
"Haha, I'm sorry. I made a mistake."
"Give the big one."
"Sorry, but that's impossible."
Sumr hunt, which blows away the sumr heat, is famous not only for its taste but also for its size.
Above all, the lower prices compared to gelato or espresso allowed everyone to enjoy the sumr hunt.
Even in the scorching afternoon sun, even in the cool evening after the sun has set.
People paired up in twos, sharing their sumr hunt and chatting.
And.
"It's sumr hunt ti!"
"Wow!"
Through the White Tower, Sumr Hunt was donated to nurous orphanages across the Empire.
The cold breeze of ice cream was hunting the Empire's sumr heat.
It was sumr.
*
"Don't let go of my hand."
"Don't worry, I won't let go."
"You already said that earlier."
"This ti, I'm not letting go."
"Really? If you let go, you'll die."
The erald waves of the Empire's eastern sea.
Aria, who caught the buoyant stone floating on the water, is diligently splashing around.
In front of him, Yuri was holding the buoyant stone.
Even Ranya was swimming alone, while surprisingly, Aria was afraid of the water.
It was because Yuri was holding onto the floating stone.
"Didn't you put it down?"
"Uh, I'm holding on."
Aria frequently checked if Yuri was holding onto the buoy while swimming.
It was more like a child's splashing than swimming.
With her head subrged in shallow water, Aria diligently moved her arms and legs.
"Sigh, this is quite tough."
"...."
"?"
When there was no response, Aria's eyes, which had been lifted, trembled.
"Where did you go?"
What Aria was holding onto was just one buoyancy stone.
The mont she beca aware of it, her body, which had been floating just fine, sank as if it was like a stone.
"Pant, pant, gasp!"
*
While Aria was struggling alone in the shallow water up to her chest, I was facing an unexpected person.
"You were enjoying it all by yourself, leaving out."
She was a noblewoman who seed to be draped in elegance.
I stood up from my seat and bowed my head.
"I am honored to et Her Highness the Second Princess."
The woman who approached the shade of the tree was Princess Christina, the Second Princess.
What are the odds of running into the Second Princess by chance at a beach like this?
It was clear that she had co looking for , so I asked with a puzzled expression.
"What brings you to see ?"
Christina frowned, perhaps displeased with my question.
"You're still as clueless as ever."
"Yes?"
"I just ca to hang out."
"...."
"You don't seem to believe ."
"Yes, well... The princess is not soone who has a lot of free ti."
Christina, who would be busy preparing to conquer the Demon Forest in alliance with the Cornel Kingdom, wouldn't have co to the beach without any reason. It was right to think that she ca to see .
"Tsk, what a boring guy."
Christina, who grumbled at my answer, took out the sumr hunt from the icebox. Then she tears the paper and splits it in half without hesitation.
Sumr hunting was cut exactly in half as if with a knife.
"Your skills are impressive."
"Hmph, it's nothing."
Christina, who had chuckled softly, handed the sumr hunt and sat down in the shade of the tree.
At that mont, Aria was splashing water everywhere and thrashing about.
'Even if she stands on her tiptoes, she still sinks.'
Where had she thrown away the buoy?
It was a mystery how she was flailing around like that.
It was while I was curiously watching Aria's flailing, which defied the laws of science.
Christina opened her mouth.
"I decided to send 'Sumr Hunt' off to the upper echelons."
"Your Majesty, is it... the palace?"
"No, higher."
I widened my eyes at Christina's gesture as she pointed to the sky with her index finger.
"Imperial family..."
"It seems the Emperor was pleased."
You prefer Sumr Hunt over Affogato? It was surprising, but Christina's words didn't end there.
"The Emperor has acknowledged that the cultural invasion of the Cornel Kingdom was effective. He decided to create the Cultural Invasion Departnt and make take charge of it. With the White Tower as an advisory body."
"I assu you have received the permission of the Tower Master..."
Christina nodded.
Our Tower Master was soone who would fall head over heels for the imperial family, so there was no need to ask.
By the way.
"Um, what you an is..."
Christina twisted her lips and laughed.
"Let's see each other often."
"...."
Am I being reeled in?
I was feeling frustrated when suddenly my cheek stung.
When I turned my gaze, Aria, who had erged from the sea as a water ghost, was glaring at as if she wanted to kill .
It looked like she had been through a fierce battle, with seaweed strands hanging all over her head.
