*****
Amon laid out all the ingredients on the table.
He didn't know how mana beast meat tasted like but in an extra note at the end of a volume, the author had described the meat as leagues tastier than the one on earth.
He could just hope it was true.
Surprisingly, a mana beast sandwich had never been mentioned in the novel like a chicken sandwich.
Because of which, Amon thought that maybe the people in this world didn't have a snack like that.
He thoroughly rinsed the meat through the water from the tap.
Then taking a bowl he placed some mayonnaise, which surprisingly existed in this world. Placing some tomato sauce and vinegar in the same bowl, he added salt and pepper before giving it a good mix.
After at least 2 minutes of good mixing, he finally made the sauce for the sandwich.
This was usually their main sauce in his previous world, where he would use it on any quick meal after coming back from work.
Going back to the meat, he observed that it was very similar to the normal beef from his world rather than a chicken.
Therefore, he chose to just go the normal way to do it by sprinkling some salt and pepper on the meat and covering it in it.
Taking a pan, he quickly covered it with olive oil before setting it to heat on a stove.
This world was supposed to be medieval but in many ways, it was no different than modern.
The novel's author described the reason for it to be the advancement of mana technology and research.
After the pan was hot enough, he gently placed the meat on it.
Then, he took two whole heads of garlic and placed them in the corner of the pan before putting thyme on top of them.
Letting the meat rest for a while to get a sear, he walked to the refrigerator and took out a stick of butter.
Since the meat was the fillet of the beast, it didn't take long for it to get a sear on one side.
Turning it over to the other side, and getting a sear on that as well, Amon placed the whole piece on top of garlic and thyme.
Letting it rest for a minute, he cut a small part of the butter stick and placed it inside the pan. Following that, he started to baste the meat constantly for 20 seconds.
After being done with everything on the pan side, he put the pan in a preheated oven for 15 minutes.
In the meantime, he decided to work on the tomato relish.
A smile coated his face when he remembered that this would mostly be his sister's favorite part of the sandwich.
Taking some red onions and chilies, he started to dice and chop them.
[Why are you so focused and silent?] Zepyhra inquired.
'Huh?' He questioned in his mind.
She suddenly burst into laughter.Discover new chapters at novelhall.com
[I mean that your face looks like it will burst apart if anything goes wrong.]
He scratched his head in embarrassment.
'I guess I just cook that way.'
He felt her chuckle in his head again.
[Want me to help with the cooking?]
He was taken by shock.
'Do you even know how to cook?'
There was silence from the other side.
[Uhhhhh maybe.]
'Of course you don't.'
He sighed before mumbling.
"Useless."
[I heard that you know?]
He grabbed the chopped chilies and onions and threw them into another pan.
maniac in his head, he quickly extended his hand inside.
"Why are you standing at the door? Come in."
Katherine realized she was still standing at the door, so she quickly turned to say goodbye to
them.
But suddenly, Amon got an idea. "Would you two like to have dinner with us? I made quite a lot actually."
"Oh you did? Then why are you both standing there, come on in?" Katherine also invited
cheerfully.
Both sisters exchanged glances with each other, and then nodded back with a smile to Katherine and Amon.
Since the apartment was quite spacious, the dining table was quite large for all of them as
well.
After having them all seated, Amon quickly went and plated the sandwiches in front of them before joining them at the table.
"What's this? I have never seen anything like it?" Elizabeth questioned, poking the sandwich
with her fork.
Sitting down, Amon chuckled.
"Ahh, its just a new idea that I wanted to make. It's called a 'sandwich', just mana beast meat
placed between bread. And uhh, if you don't mind, I would recommend eating with your
hands." He explained to all of them.
Initially confused at his explanation, they chose to trust him at the end and held the sandwich
with their hands.
Finally, they took the first bite.
Inside, Amon was hoping that it turned out good since he didn't have time to taste it.
Fortunately, his efforts paid off, as all of their eyes gleamed with satisfaction. With a surprised look on their faces, they quickly took the second bite.
Their eyes sparkled with satisfaction even more.
All of the looked at him with surprise.
"This is really good!"
Amon laughed.
"Hahaha, I'm glad that you enjoy it."
Elizabeth noticed that he wasn't eating.
"You aren't eating?"
Amon's mouth contorted to an 'o' shape as he realized that he hadn't taken a bite yet.
He quickly held the sandwich and took his first bite and all of them watched him.
He munched down the bite, but suddenly his mouth went rigid and his head lowered.
Memories started to flow through his mind as the familiar taste hit his tastebuds. The memories of his younger sister.
How he would come back home tired from work and she would beg him to make it.
And he would, just to put a smile on her face.
Sometimes, when he came home late, he would find his sister making them by herself and
often cut herself on the finger.
All of the happy times flowed through his mind in that instant.
How she would feed him sometimes when he was tired.
The times when he made this for her cause she was sick.
He thought was ready to transmigrate.
But he wasn't.
Suddenly, Alice and Elizabeth's face contorted with shock at Amon and the latter quickly
lowered her face to see his face.
Amon was crying.
Tears were flowing down his cheeks like a downpour.
