After visiting Chris-san in Archlesia Empire, we decided to move on again, but we’re still not sure where to go next. If we were to go around the Human Realm in the proper order, we would go to Hydra Kingdom next…… The only common acquaintance between and Kuro is Laguna-san, and unlike how it was with Chris-san, Kuro and Laguna-san aren’t particularly close with each other.
And since Laguna-san isn’t a particularly good cook or anything like that, there’s no reason for us to consult her. That being the case, there’s no other mutual acquaintance between Kuro and in Hydra Kingdom.
However, as for whether we aren’t going to Hydra Kingdom, that’s not necessarily the case. Hydra Kingdom is at the forefront of the latest trends, and has a wide variety of rare and unique ingredients. As Kuro pursues new possibilities for baby castellas, that place is a definite must-go in Kuro’s mind.
And thus, we ca here to see the markets and other places around Hydra Kingdom.
[……Whoa, so this is that yuzu that’s recently co into circulation?]
(T/N: Yuzu is a Japanese citrus fruit. Like a smaller, rounder lemon or a yellow li.)
[Yeah, that sure looks like it. So this is also being circulated now huh.]
[Shiro and Earth God have been talking recently, and various ingredients from the other world have been coming into the market.]
The reason why yuzu ca into circulation is probably that Kaori-san wished for Eden-san to make a tree that would produce yuzu for her, and after talking to Shiro-san as well, she allowed it to be distributed.
I don’t know what happened after that, but is it likely that the Gods distributed them under Shiro-san’s instructions? Regardless, this is a rare ingredient in Kuro’s eyes.
[Let’s buy so of these too!]
[Well, depending on how you make it, yuzu certainly seems to go well with baby castellas.]
[Other than that, let’s also get so fresh fish……]
[That, I will stop.]
Yuzu and fish really is a wonderful combination. Whitefish, for example, would go well with yuzu. However, adding both of that to baby castella would be nothing short of a devil’s amalgamation.
It’s scary how she actually tried to buy fish with a completely normal look on her face.
[Ah, speaking of which, it’s almost lunchti. What should we have for lunch?]
[Ahh~~ You’re right. Since we’re at it, how about we eat at that restaurant you said Kaori-chan runs?]
[Well, I’m sure we’ll be heading there after Hydra Kingdom anyway…… However, if we go there at lunchti, I wonder if Olivia-san will be there as well?]
[Olivia-chan? ……Eh? Olivia-chan eats food?]
[She has apparently beco a regular there. No, the original cause of why that happened was but……]
Kuro seed to know about Olivia-san as well, and it seems like she really is surprised about the fact that she eats lunch at the set-al restaurant.
I told Kuro that I went to Friendship City and t Olivia-san before, but I haven’t ntioned how she beca a regular at Kaori-san’s restaurant after that.
[Heehhh…… That makes look forward to eating there even more. I also like Japanese food a lot.]
[Now that you ntioned it, they’re often served at Kuro’s house, right?]
[Neun loves them after all.]
Kuro is also good at using chopsticks, and it feels like she’s used to Japanese food. The cause for this is definitely Neun-san…… I just can’t imagine Neun-san eating bread, so I’m convinced that was the case.
Well, she probably eats bread as well, but she did ntion in her diary how she dislikes eating bread all the ti……
After we had enough shopping in Hydra Kingdom, we went to Kaori-san’s restaurant. It was still a little early in the afternoon, so we were able to get there before the restaurant got too crowded.
When Kuro and I entered the restaurant, Kaori-san greeted us with a bright smile.
[Welco. Ahh, Kaito-san, you’ve co again huh. The one with you is…… Hyiiiih, Kuromueina-sama!?]
[Kaori-chan, it’s been a while~~ Last ti we t was about 12 years ago, right?]
[Ah, l- long ti no see!]
Seeing Kuro waving her hand with a bright smile, Kaori-san bowed her head with a look of astonishnt on her face.
[I heard from Chris-chan that Kaori-chan runs a store here in Friendship City, so I ca to have lunch here with Kaito-kun.]
[Ahh, I see. Thank you very much. Errr, please have a seat.]
[Thanks~~]
She seed nervous, but Kaori-san just seed to be just surprised by her sudden arrival, as she didn’t feel as still as when I brought Olivia-san here for the first ti.
I guess she knows Kuro’s personality to so extent, having t her when she was playing the role of Hero.
Guided by Kaori-san, we sat down at the counter seats and looked at the nu…… when Kuro seed to have suddenly thought of sothing and spoke.
[Ah, that’s right. Since we’re here, I might as well ask Kaori-chan about it.]
[Eh? What is it?]
[What do you think are the new possibilities for baby castellas?]
[…………Say what?]
Kaori-chan looked like a pigeon that had been hit by a peashooter, but upon further reflection, I guess her reaction was normal. The people we’ve t so far know Kuro well, people who would just be astounded, but convinced that “Kuro would say sothing like that”, but if soone suddenly ntioned the possibilities of baby castellas, it would be natural that they’d react that way.
With this in mind, I decided to explain to Kaori-san the circumstances.
Serious-senpai : [This character is well-qualified to be a new Stomachache Character, but as expected, she couldn’t co close to the Legendary Stomachache Lilia……]
? ? ? : [Indeed. If it was Lilia-san, Shallow Vernal-sama would have probably co at that mont as well.]
