67 8. Dinner party

Yut sighed a sigh of relief when he saw that Prince Alsace's entire line had entered the VIP room on the top floor.

After a full tour of the castle, we are supposed to have a few hours' break for dinner.

In the meantime, it would be easier if we crossed there... Should be.

Valtrude was smiling as if she were a lady.

It's as beautiful as a painting, and it doesn't work perfectly.

"Smiles stick"

"You're so tired. Let's get some rest."

"Val, you're not talking back."

"No, no, um. Thanks, I'm confident I can do the same thing again after I put it back."

Valtrude, who rarely shows the colour of fatigue, seems to be different.

Instead, I'll rub her face loose, like they did to Acorn or Alcia, and I'll take her strength.

"Yeah. This one's cuter"

Maybe Yut was tired too.

If he was sane, he would never do it. To the act and the words, Valtrude hastily hesitated, not to appear.

"No, well, what. I don't like it. That, that. For me, too, there's something called mind preparation. In the first place, some people wonder what it's like to touch a woman's face without permission."

"Ah. Ugh..."

That's what they said, and they noticed the audacity.

Distract while disturbing, turning your face bright red.

"Well, I wouldn't mind Yut. Still..."

"Kitsukemus"

The two of us look at each other, and every time we do that, we get nagging. What a nasty sight.

No one had seen me.

Not to be seen.

"Are you done?

Alcia, who had finished her work in the VIP room, was unaware that she had come out.

"Ah. Ugh..."

"Shit......"

"Ha... You'll be considerate ahead."

As for Alcia, what do we do in light of this extent? I just want to say more forcefully...... but now only during the big event called Prince Visit, all you have to do is give up.

"Both of you, are you ready for dinner? Later on."

I can't be here forever for now.

Encourage the two hardened and immobile to move away from the guest room and from the top floor, which was rarely visited, to their private space.

"Ready? What are you talking about?

"It's no use getting stuck."

"Ugh..."

"Not in this outfit?

"Val, I know I can't do that."

Give up, put your hands on your shoulders and tell them.

I'm ready now. The option of escaping now is unacceptable.

(Originally, it seems that Yuuto-kun started the case.)

- And it did not steam back, and Alcia also grabbed Valtrude's shoulder disappointingly, forcing him to go to the modest room where Regina Nievez, coming from Hardentrum, waited.

Numerous unused rooms exist in this fortress of Falve.

That was the case with the first kitchen, which became the fort of Acorn, and so was the guest room on the top floor that went through the line of Prince Alsace.

This room, adjacent to the luxurious large hall - was also finally set to see the day this time.

It would originally envisage its use as a modest room during meetings in the Great Hall or as a discourse room in small numbers. It was a relatively mediocre room.

Still, the walls are decorated with gold yarn silver yarn, and paintings, figurines and other conditioning are top notch. A dining table made from a single plate of sandalwood is a delicacy prepared for this purpose.

There are few accompanying people this time, which makes a cold impression in the Great Hall.

Neither Prince Alsace nor Eudit, who has been guided by Alcia, see the colour of dissatisfaction.

And more importantly, the beauty of the host is out of group.

Valtrude, who stood up and welcomed them, was wearing an unfamiliar dress.

The dress, tailored in dark blue jade (satin), is cut large diagonally from the root of the neck to the underside of the armhole, with exposed shoulders.

It is woven with gray boleros close to white to hide it, and the costume made of the same fabric worn on the ribbon at the neck creates glamour.

A belt like a belt distributed around the underside of her chest highlighted her chest, and the skirt area, in contrast to which the spread was suppressed, was making her look smarter.

It is like the costume of a mythical goddess, coupled with the appearance of Valtrude as if he had received a mysterious and heavenly grace.

Next to it, Yut, who stood embarrassed, also took off his usual uniform and put his sleeves through his new clothes.

Even so, the slack and white shirt stay put. Topped with a vest, the student clothes on the collar are removed and a white robe of magic equipment (magic item) is woven at the top.

Acorn seemed to want to wear a suit anyway, but lacked time and skill. From the yurt that even the tie feels cramped, it won't be a hoarding one though.

"Again, I cordially welcome you"

Two of the guests confirm that they have laid down their hips on the stool and Valtrude greets them. At the same time, an aperitif wine is poured into the glass.

The role of Sommelier had asked Prince Alsace's entourage. Originally, I don't even have the in-laws to serve Valtrude or Yut, but the outfit was put up with because there are no other suitors.

"... delicious"

"It's a gift from the Kingdom of the Chronica God."

"Ho."

With admiration, Prince Alsace opens another glass.

The anxiety felt on the balcony a few hours ago is not even given out in the yawn.

I didn't think Yut was very tasty, but I guess this is what it is if you don't like alcohol. For that matter, I have no problem with Valtrude drinking happily.

"It's really bold, but it's lovely."

More concerned than wine, Eudit asks Valtrude.

"Another visitor from Amaxa's hometown. It's due to her efforts."

"We're still in the prototype stage, but if you don't mind, I can show you a sample later"

It was called Amaxa by Valtrude to other demeanor the other way round is fresh on the contrary, and I pinch my mouth to avoid laughing weirdly.

Eudit, who had been asked ahead of time to make a request, hung up like a girl.

"And an order?

"Of course."

That's why I bothered to call Regina. I can't possibly call on a councillor from Hardenturm just to help Valtrude change his clothes.

Now, with what face will you be surprised?

I don't mean to, but it gives me a good response to what Yut does, so I'm a little excited.

"Yeah. You'll have time."

"Today we would like you to enjoy a course dish from our hometown"

"Dinner from another world."

"Don't worry, it's not a flying thing"

"What is the course?

"Instead of bringing in the dishes at once, we will serve them at the speed they are served and in turn"

Wine and bread. And while indicating that there are just some dishes on the desk, explain.

At least there is still no concept of course in the Rotosilt kingdom. In other words, this is the first time this has happened, so to speak, acorns become the rule.

The sunny smile she showed when she realized it, who cared about manners, is unforgettable.

"It's a chicken breast ham and fig appetizer."

Like wine, the hors d 'oeuvres brought in by Prince Alsace's entourage.

Sliced ham with black pepper, sprinkled with chopped apple fruit and dressed with vinegar and olive oil similar to balsamic vinegar. The colors were complemented by herbs.

"Well. How artistic"

"Yeah. This is beautiful."

Royal palace cooks should be loaded with drills every day.

But that is hundreds of years apart from culinary advances on Earth. Though I'm not an expert, I can't possibly be the acorn I enjoy as a matter of course.

"… this seems to be a luxurious use of pepper for a long time"

"This sauce is also refreshing."

The sweetness of the ham and apple of the peppered chicken is harmonious and makes the tongue enjoyable.

The chickens judged what they were raising in the village of Cayenne, and the acorns processed it from hand to hand. I've been making chicken ham since I was on Earth, so there was nothing wrong with it.

The taste also seems to have received a passing score, which is relieving. Akane, who should be peeking into this room at Miller of Furfroom, would also be delighted.

Valtrude, who should have had a taste for it but is focused on eating it... he is so cute, I can't say anything. If I don't lose my gratitude, I'll make it better.

The first plate disappeared beautifully while we had a chat, and the soup was carried next in anticipation of the fit.

"Bouillabaisse. This is the dish we have here too"

"Really?

"In fishermen's towns, where the sea is close, it's common. However, this is how it works."

It's the first time I've looked into diversity and all, but it seems that Bouillabaisse has something that will be a bouillabaisse charter.

I get tired of everything being all unusual. Materials as much ground as possible. But I also want novelty.

Such selfishness.

When it was difficult to make potage without potatoes or corn, I hit it in the search for it and it was too convenient for me to make a high touch.

Serve the soup in front of you, and the fish that serves as the utensil is sprinkled on another plate and divided.

The soup, which I took stock of with small fish and seasoned with plenty of spices, was excellent.

"You're so rich in flavor. I'm going to be obsessed."

That being said, Eudit carries a spoon gracefully.

In contrast to her like that, Prince Alsace continues to eat silently and does not hesitate to reach out to Baggett.

The bread was baked at the shop where the Yuts were in the king's capital. He responded well to my order to get something to match the soup.

If it's the original full course, fish dishes next.

But that's omitted because acorns don't keep it. This time, she's the rule.

The next main meat dish I was carried was a hamburger that I showed off once.

However, we have taken on board the opinions of Valtrude and Alcia, and the details are fairly adjusted.

For example, pork rose meat was wrapped around the hamburger to give a bite of meat and a sense of volume.

"In my hometown, it's the most popular dish. It's often requested even in celebratory seats."

I'm not lying.

I'm just not saying - for a child.

"That's exciting"

"Yes."

Two people using knives and forks to cut them apart.

Carry it to your mouth and take a bite.

The result is - needless to say.

I opened my eyes to surprise, that look is everything.

(Indeed, it is delicious. But you don't eat all the way to Val...)

When you're really impressed, it seems like something that keeps you quiet.

It wasn't until Alsace remembered that his mouth was an organ for uttering words that he ate the second plate that came out without asking for it.

Patty kept it slightly smaller in conjunction with Eudit, so it was actually as calculated.

No one knows that there was a cook who had a story on his mind's notebook when he saw Alsace like that and said, "Looks like he's going to make progress with a carnivorous beauty prince or something.

"Excellent. No, really great. I seem to have spoken of God's food."

"The cook will be delighted with the excessive compliments"

"Absolutely. I'd love to meet you."

"Come here with dessert"

Yes, rather than Eudit, I call on Acorn, who would be watching over there. You'll look blatantly disgusted, but you can't hear that selfishness.

Enjoying wine and conversation for a few minutes.

As Yut said, Acorn showed up at the dining room.

The outfit is a made-up outfit I was wearing one day.

Acorn, who finished handing out dessert sorbets with his best shot on his face, bowed his head next to the two main guests.

"Taste first"

More natural than Valtrude. But recommend dessert with the remaining voice of steadfastness.

Because the ice was all-you-can-use, I made a sherbet of milk tea, still made of rare tea.

The shades are slightly plain, but the sweet, more importantly cold texture greatly entertains the two guests.

"Did it fit your mouth?

"I've never eaten anything like this before. No, if it belongs to your hometown, of course."

"I'm proud to be the same woman who's still young."

"It's an occasional piece of hometown technology."

You look humble, but I actually want to get out of this place quickly. No, you must be wanting to escape.

"She - Zhu Yin is also the originator of this costume"

"Well."

Several surprise voices this day.

Naturally, there's no way we're letting today's useful actors get away with this. I have a grudge from Acorn. My gaze flies, but I ignore it as a matter of course.

"Brave man..."

I couldn't bear it, Acorn was even speaking out in his voice.

It's hard to follow...... and Yut laughs inside.

"I heard you can't use this magic, but you seem like an extra lady to make it up to."

That word of Alsace is a frank praise and, at the same time, I cannot help but recall the question of why so many people gather in this land.

Valtrude Istas.

Perhaps the best Cathedral Knight (Paladin) in this Brewers, a beautiful Virgin who also dresses in costumes from different worlds.

If you are a hero who saved the world, is that natural too?

"Who is he who was imprisoned by the Book of Nothingness (Caios Evil)...

"Master Alsace?

Eudit's sweet voice draws back Alsace's consciousness, which has fallen into the abyss of thought.

"No, I was just wondering how to make this dessert"

"If you add salt to the ice, the temperature drops a lot, so we use it."

"That's the first phenomenon I've ever heard."

On the surface, no, the postprandial discourse proceeds softly except inside Alsace.

Thus, the dinner party succeeded in bringing the curtain down.

So there is only one person who has noticed the darkness in his heart that Prince Alsace has felt. I kept thinking of him for decades, just her.
