Chapter 310

Tandoori & Friendly [Part 1]

“H-HOT!”

*hah hah* William gulped down water after eating a spoonful of Emma’s special curry because it was too spicy.

“Are you alright, William?”

Arban helped William refill his now empty cup.

“See what I told you? Just eat the mild one from the pot over here. You still have a child’s palate.”

“William, I will eat yours, so take another plate for the mild curry.”

“Ughhh, even though my spicy food tolerance used to be top-notch (in our past life)...”

Emma reminded William with a fed-up face while George asked him to pass over his plate of curry.

William bitterly went towards the mild curry pot.

“Excuse me... How’s the spiciness, everyone? Is it alright or...?”

Other than Emma’s embroidery friends and Arthur, who she invited to dinner together, His Majesty the King and Prince Edward were also in the Stuarts’ tent for some reason.

Arthur reached his hand for Edward’s plate when he saw how the prince hadn’t moved his spoon for a while now.

“W-What are you saying, Arthur! This is Emma’s precious home cooking... Of course I will eat it! *chomp!* ...?! HOT!”

The prince hurriedly stuffed the curry into his mouth before Arthur could take it, but it was spicier than he imagined.

“P-Pardon me, Your Highness? There’s also the not-spicy one, so there is no need to force yourself...” I’ll be in trouble if I am called out for lese majesty because of something like this. Emma panicked.

“No, Emma, that’s not it! I’m alright. It’s just that it was spicier than I imagined... but it’s incredibly delicious. It doesn’t taste like anything I have tried before, but it’s surprisingly delicious. It’s not only spicy but has many complicated layers(?) of flavors...?”

“Pfft! Your Highness, is that even a compliment? That’s too hard to understand!”

Arthur didn’t hold back his laughter in the face of the faltered prince.

“It’s a compliment! Of course, I’m complimenting it! It’s a little spicy, but there’s also this moreish taste, you see?!”

“Your Highness? I will bring you the mild one if it’s too spicy, you know?”

“I’m alright! Sit down, George. I’m really alright!”

The prince hurriedly stopped George before he stood up to serve him the mild curry. How can I, as an older gentleman, eat the mild one when Emma is eating the spicy one...

“Pfft! Your Highness is too funny.”
