Reincarnated into a Game As the Hero’s Friend Chapter 15

T/N: Due to the complaint about the info dump in the previous chapter, I decided to add a skip button.

After the awarding ceremony is done, next is a banquet. I really dont know what these people are thinking to open a banquet in this kind of situation. Maybe the royal family or the nobles had so sort of plan? Who knows.

What I know is currently we had beco a celebrity among our peers.

Sigh really, how did things beco like this?

Welner, youre the only person who will complain after being given a peerage you know.

Mazell, whose contribution earned him third place in the award ceremony said. In the ga, Mazell was the first place, not the Crown Prince. As I expected, deviation from the ga scenario appeared.

A banquet like this also didnt happen in the ga. Well with the death of The Crown Prince, who is in the mood to open a banquet?

Even now, Its actually not the ti to open a banquet. The demon king is in the midst of his revival after all. Not that anyone knows. Even if I go on my way to announce it, I wont be able to answer where I got this information.

Regarding the banquet itself, the Crown Prince and the King had already left. Maybe they need to take care of the kingdoms matter or sothing, I dont know.

While I and Mazell stayed here. That punk Mazell, why did he look more handso wearing a students uniform compared to who wears the gallant formal suit? God sure is unfair.

Not that I believe God exists.

No way its just ! If you properly search

If you properly search youre only going to find that other students envied you.

Mazell said. It makes sense that being bestowed on a peerage is an honor for others but for , its the worst thing that can happen.

First of all, its already bad enough that its hard for to left the capital for a long ti as a student. Now, my chance of being in a castle, the heart of that event just increased.

My stomach hurt

Now you know how I felt yesterday, dont you.

Now that I looked closely, Mazell seems to be more relaxed compared to yesterday. Despite everything that I had said before, it seems like Mazell was really nervous yesterday because of his manner.

So he can converse that well with His Majesty yesterday despite being nervous, eh. I rember thinking, that the scene of Mazell conversing with His Majesty is good enough to be included in a future history book. Being able to do everything perfectly seems to be included in the protagonists cheat.

Well, my number one problem right now is this stomachache. It did co at a perfect ti though since I had no intention to eat anything at this banquet.

(T/N info dump warning about dieval cuisine here to skip)

Talking about eating in many works that included reincarnated into another world the, many of its protagonists speak about how bad the dieval cuisines are. Among those stories, so stories even make cooking a more delicious food as its main the. But, many stories got the information about cuisines of the dieval ti wrong.

The wrong part is the descriptions of the food in dieval tis are plain, or you can only taste the ingredients but nothing else. I dont know food for commoner taste, but the food served to nobles or the royal isnt like that.

Food eaten by the nobles and royals is quite lavish according to their standard. The problem is that standards suck.

The standard of lavish food is its price. In the north, that ans dried fruit. Thats good. Dried fruits are delicious.

But for other nobles whose territories are mostly far from the sea, their standard of lavish food is any food that uses most salt. The kind of food that will make your blood pressure shoot through the roof is the most expensive food here. The tradition of leaving a large container of salt near the dining tables head seat must be because of this.

My guess is this kingdom hasnt entered the age of sail. Thats why people cook with salt not spices. Spices are as expensive as gold after all.

There was a record of soone eating a food fully season with pepper and drinking wine that is also filled with pepper. When I read that record, I rember thinking how did this guys tongue and stomach handle that much pepper?

It must be because in dieval tis people eat nothing but food seasoned with salt so the taste of a simple pepper must be really delicious for them.

By the way, the dieval period in Europe is around the Heian until the Edo Period [1] in Japan.

In the latter half of the dieval period, the taste of food must have gotten better while in the earlier half I dont even want to imagine it

As for the Bain Kingdom, the food here is at least not as bad as pepper-filled cuisine and wine. I know so cuisine that is called delicacy despite having a questionable taste, though. If there is one unique thing about food here, is that its normal for people to eat demon at.

Ive once had a soup made by demon innard seasons with self-created spices. The ingredients of that self-created spices were justurgh. Lets forget about it.

As I was thinking, a familiar man wearing a ceremonial suit approached . Its Marquis Norporth.

Sir Welner von Zevert. First of all, let extend my congratulation on your new peerage.

Thank you, Marquis Norporth.

First of all. That ans theres more. Arghh Is it about that? Lets just apologize first.

Also, Please accept my apology for my action in the previous battle.

Hm

Did he or did he not accept my apology? Anyway, I just lowered my head. I was the one who was in the wrong after all.

After I raised my head, I can see Mazells confused face.

I stayed silent and waited for Marquis Norporths next word. What I got is the low hearty laugh of this dandy uncle. He looks handso when laughing. Why is the ratio of handso n near so high?

Its fine as long as you understand. I also need to honor His Highnesss request.

His Highnesss request?

His Highness requested not to be too harsh on you as youre still young. Despite His Highness request, I ca here prepared to scold you if you let your achievent go over your head but, it seems like its a needless worry.

I am thankful for your kind intention.

Wha- Did I just enter His Highness good grace? What should I do

Count Zeavert is lucky to have such an excellent heir. I will be looking forward to your future.

Thank you for your praise.

I bowed again. When I raised my head, Marquis Norporth is gone. Fyuh

So, what just happened?

Well, to put it simply

To Mazell, who had to repress his question until now I explained the situation at that ti. After I noticed the enemy is using Tsuri-Nobuse I imdiately went to the main camp to report to the Crown Prince. Thats the problem.

According to the armys chain of command, I should have reported to the left flank commander, Marquis Norporth. Then, the marquis should be the one that contacted the Crown Prince.

But if you did that, wont it beco more dangerous?

Yeah. Thats why I went straight to His Highness because I dont have any ti to persuade Marquis Norporth.

Still, I ignored the rule. This is the sa as I, a representative of the sectional manager skipped the departnt head and imdiately reported to the CEO. Thats ignoring the proper procedure.

But if soone is allowed to ignore the rule because that person had so achievent, the order of the army will collapse.

I see

Mazell stared at like I was so kind of alien. Can I slap the stop looking at ! on his face?

Welner, are we really the sa age? I understand why Marquis Norporth ca here only after your explanation, so how did you

Thats called the difference between our life experiences.

Literally. That is If you count the experience from my past life.

As we were talking, other people started to gather around us. The nobles that want to form ties with the hero must have exhausted their patience.

We might get busy for a while

We did.
