Im sorry you had to co out here.
No, master. Im always happy to co when my master calls.
At the end of the year, on the 40th day of the winter month, it was midnight.
Following Yuris call, Sofia appeared in the reception room of the Yuritania Palace and bowed her head deeply.
She is probably one of the busiest workers in the city of Ulysses, as she is the head of the Explorers Guild, which has an ever-increasing number of users.
I also heard that the master is treating you to sothing delicious that master made herself today. If you say such a nice thing, I will be happy to make ti for you no matter how busy I am.
Oh Im sorry, but I only made one part of the dish. And to be honest, I dont know if Sofias taste buds will like it.
Im always happy to co over if I can at least taste so of Masters cooking.
Sofia smiled cheerfully.
If you say so, Yuri doesnt feel bad.
By the way, Sofia still calls Master, doesnt she?
Was that wrong?
Not that theres anything wrong with that, but The reason why you call Master is because you call yourself a slave, right? Isnt it strange to call that now that Im your concubine?
Yes, thankfully I have been added to one of master concubine From now on, I am going to do my best as a concubine slave to gain more favor from my master?
Ive never heard of that before Whats a concubine slave?
A concubine, a slave, you an. That would be .
Oh, yes.
Yuri imdiately understood that it was useless to say anything to her.
Shes probably no match for Sofia in words, even if she tried to tell her off. Yuri accepted her self-proclaid concubine slave with a feeling of resignation.
Am I the only one whos coming today?
No, Im talking to everyone in my side room, not just Sofia. The food Im going to serve today is from my hotown. Its also an opportunity for to use it as a touchstone to see if its taste is suitable for the people of the Holy Land, the Principality, and the Kingdom.
Mm-hmm. Im looking forward to the cuisine of Masters holand.
While we were talking about thisthe other kids seed to have arrived.
As soon as Yuri said that, there was a knock on the door of the reception room.
Please co in, Yuri said to the people outside the room. Led by Estoa, the saint of the Nimun Holy Land, Lizelia and Roselotte also entered the room.
Good evening, sister. Thank you for inviting us here today.
At the sa ti as Estoa bowed, Lizelia and Roselotte also bowed to Yuri.
Welco. Im sorry to call you at this late hour.
No, Im usually out in the [Labyrinth Dungeon] until much later.
In moderation, please.
Every morning and evening, Estoa devotes herself to fulfilling her duties as a saint in the cathedral of the Holy Land of Nimun. At night, she turns into a full-fledged explorer, enthusiastically tackling the [Labyrinth] of Ulysses every night.
Estoa level, which was already high at 64 when we first t, has now grown to 78.
This is the highest level among the explorers challenging the labyrinths of Ulysses. She has already graduated from the [Advanced I] labyrinth, where the recomnded level is 66 to 80, and will soon begin to challenge the [Advanced II] labyrinth, which is the most difficult of all the labyrinths in the city of Ulysses.
Yuri invited the three of them to sit on the facing sofa in the room.
Sofia shifted her sitting position to the side, so Yuri sat next to Sofia on the sa side. The two sisters, Estoa and LizeRose, sat on the other side.
Sofia imdiately took out a teapot and cups for four people from the [Maid Bag] and created an impromptu tea party.
I invited her over to serve dinner, but I thought it would be nice to have a little conversation first.
The other day, my sister and I challenged the [Labyrinth Dungeon] of Ulysses for the first ti together, though it was the least difficult one
Oh? Did you get interested in it from the broadcast?
Yes, I did. That actually, Im embarrassed to admit that Im the one who got interested in it, not my sister.
Lizelia replied in response to Yuris question.
She still seems a little nervous, though. Even so, she seems to have gotten used to it and is now able to talk to Yuri with a smile, which is a change from when they first t.
It made Yuri very happy to see that she was slowly opening up to her.
Thats surprising. I thought Lizelia had a weak temperant and would not like any kind of violence.
She had been taught by a knight of the kingdom to practice stick fighting in the royal palace. Of course, its only a self-defense technique.
But when she saw the low-level explorers being broadcasted, she thought that her martial arts might work as well.
I see. So, how was it when you got there?
I was too scared to fight well in front of the enemy
Blushing, Lizelia murmured in a muffled voice.
Its not unreasonable.
If I had only learned martial arts as a form of self-defense, I would never have had the opportunity to face an opponent with a clear intention to attack. It was only natural that she would cower when she experienced it.
Well, It might have been a good thing that I was able to fight calmly because you were so full of yourself, Lize-sister.
Fufu, Roselotte is very sisterly, isnt she? When she saw that Lyseria was stuck, she got fired up and decided that she had to do her best here, didnt she?
Uu Well, well, I guess you could say that.
Roselotte imdiately blushed when Yuri interrupted her.
A sister who loves her sister is a highly desirable quality in Yuris eyes.
After that, Yuri and the others lost track of ti for a while and were absorbed in talking about the Labyrinth. After so ti had passed, the conversation was suddenly interrupted by a sound that rang out in the room.
Im sorry
Roselotte murmured in a small voice, her face turning bright red.
The only thing that interrupted the conversation was Roselottes stomach sound, which rang out unexpectedly.
Fufu. Ill go prepare dinner now.
Yuri told everyone this and went out of the reception room.
Then, she received the food that she had left with Aria, the second-in-command of the , who was waiting in a nearby hot water room with a cup of tea. He stored it in his inventory and returned to the reception room.
Unlike the [Maid Bag] that the [Maid] occupation class acquires, the items stored in the [Iinventory] are affected by ti.
So, to keep the hot food warm, I needed to ask the child of to take care of it for a while.
This is a new dish for
Its a noodle dish. It looks delicious.
Theres sothing about the sll that makes want to eat more.
Sure, the colors are subdued, but the aroma is so delicious
On the table in the reception room, Yuri laid out the dishes that she had received for five people. The four people in the room each gave their impressions.
Master, what is this dish called?
Its a dish from my hotown, called Soba, and we like to eat it, especially at the end of the year, like today. I wanted everyone to try it.
What I served to the four of them was just plain, hot soba noodles.
However, since it was made by hand and boiled by Euro, a level 200 , there was no doubt that it tasted even better than it looked.
Hmmm Did you make this, sister?
No, I had my n make it for . Why dont you try a bite?
After saying this, Yuri took out a wooden fork from her [Inventory] and handed it to the four of them.
To tell the truth, I would like them to eat with chopsticks. Im sure that if I let them do this all of a sudden, the results would be terrible.
Wow. Delicious! Ive never tasted anything like it, but its so good!
Its so clear, yet so complex and delicious? What is this soup?
As soon as both Lizelia and Roselotte tasted a bite of the noodles twirled around their forks, they let out a cry of surprise.
Yuri was a little worried about whether or not the taste of bonito soup would be understood by the people of this world. It seed that her fears were unfounded, and she let out a sigh of relief.
Its delicious. I could eat as much as I want
I would love to learn the recipe for this soup.
Both Estoa and Sofia also relaxed their cheeks at the deliciousness.
If the taste of bonito soup can be understood by the people of the Holy Land, the Principality, and the Kingdom, then the taste of Japanese food itself can be accepted by most countries.
By the way, I made this one.
Whats this, sister?
Its called tempura Well, you can put it on the dish and try it for yourself.
Yuri deftly placed two tempura on each of the four soba bowls.
One prawn tempura and one vegetable kakiage per person.
As it was the end of the year, everyone in the Yuri Empire was having New Years Eve Soba for dinner today. While leaving the soba to Euro, as usual, Yuri cooked the tempura for everyone by hand.
It was a lot of work to fry the tempura for 360 people (especially the kakiage), but Yuri is proud to say that she did very well thanks in part to [Cooking II] skills.
The two kinds of tempura that we are serving to the four of us today were also fried by Yuri when she made them for the mbers of the Yuri Empire.
Although so ti has passed since they were cooked, thanks to Aria of storage, you can still enjoy the crispy texture of the freshly made dishes.
Wow, Ive never had fried food this good!
Its so good, it absorbs the soup!
Sofia and Lizelia imdiately shouted with delight.
Its the kind of thing that would make a princess of another worlds tongue moan. I think Japanese cuisine is great cuisine, dont you?
Whatever the case, if the four of us were pleased with the al, we were happy.
Of course, after the al, Yuri enjoyed the four of them.
It was only natural that she had taken the trouble to have them beco her concubine.
It would be rude not to embrace them. There was no way I was going to shy away.
Its called a Two-year visit to a shrine if you stay up all night from New Years Eve to New Years Day. But what would be the appropriate na for the Princess Beginning who stays up all night from New Years Eve to New Years Day?
