CH 94

After that, the preparation is completed somehow.

“Everyone! Thank you for waiting!”

A deep blue sky! Grasslands swaying in the wind! A simple furnace and burning firewood on the premises of the Knights! A grill! And the tables and chairs lined up!

. . . Today is a barbecue!

“Let’s eat!”

“Oh!”

With my voice as a signal, everyone put the meat on the grill all at once.

Ah, this smoke and the smell of meat! The real pleasure of eating outside!

“The good thing about barbecue is that you can choose and eat as much as you want.”

I called out to Shizuku-chan who was next to me and handed her a plate.

For the time being, it feels like eating with salt, and you grill it and eat it yourself.

Keep it simple!

“Shina-san, are you still not eating?”

“Hmm, I want to eat, but I think I should heat this meat first.”

“Then I will grill the meat and bring it to you.”

“Oh, that would make me happy.”

You can eat it while cooking, but if you focus on cooking, you’ll miss the chance to eat it. . .

That’s why, to Shizuku-chan’s suggestion, I replied that it would be helpful.

Then, I will entrust it to Shizuku-chan! Saying this, I joined the others as they grilled the meat.

“Okay. Then I’ll go this way.”

Put the prepared Wagyu beef into the Dutch oven.

Then Hurst-san came next to me and gently helped me.

“Shina-sama, should I put some meat in here?”

“Thank you!”

“This is just this lump.”

“Yes. This takes time, so while everyone is grilling the meat, this is also a strategy to be completed.”

“I see. . . .Is this from the royal palace?”

“That’s right. I borrowed it.”

Yes. This dutch oven was lent to me by the head chef of the royal palace.

Since I came from the royal palace to the Northern Knights on Gyabussh, I felt sorry for the increased weight.

But Gyabussh said with a smile that it wasn’t that big of a deal. . . . .perhaps.

“Would you like to grill this over charcoal like you did when you made the roast chicken at the royal palace?”

“Yes. Close the lid and put the charcoal on top.”

“Okay. Then I’ll take this one.”

“Please.”

Hurst-san volunteered to be in charge of the roast beef, so I’ll leave it to him.

Once you put it in the charcoal, you just leave it alone, so Hurst-san can immediately participate in the barbecue.

That’s why next. . .

“Roast pork!”

I took the black pork belly that I had prepared and headed to the place where everyone was grilling.

Ryleigh-kun was there, and seemed to be adjusting the power of the fire.

“Ah, Ryleigh-kun, I have a request.”

“Shina-san! What is it?”

“I want to brown the surface of this pork, so can you turn the heat up a little higher?”

“Yeah, leave it to me!”

Ryleigh-kun immediately responds to my words and raises the firepower.

When I put the prepared pork belly on it. . .

“Hmm! A good sound. . .!”

“It’s true! And it smells so good. . .!”

As soon as I put it on the grill, it makes a sizzling sound and spreads a fragrant scent!

Meat marinated in sauce is best at this moment. . .

“This will grill the entire surface, so can you turn the heat down after that?”

“Yes!”

While feeling the sound and aroma, the surface of the pork is grilled.

Then, turn the heat down to low and let it cook all the way through.

“Is it okay if I ask Ryleigh-kun to continue this?”

“Leave it to me!”

I also smiled back at the cheerful voice, thank you.

Then, Shizuku-chan came over.

“Shina-san, it’s meat.”

Saying that, what she showed me was a very delicious-looking grilled piece of meat. . .

“Wagyu ribs!”

“It might be a little hot, but. . .”

“That’s okay!”

Shizuku-chan held it out to me, so I popped it into my mouth.

The point is, uhm, but it can’t be helped because we’re two women, and right now my right hand is busy because I’m turning over the meat.

Then, the meat I put in my mouth was really the best!

“Mmm! It’s delicious. . .”

Juicy.

The meat juice that spreads at the moment of chewing is amazing. The overflowing fat is amazing. What’s more, it’s not a bad feeling, it’s a slightly smooth fat. . .! Japanese beef! This it wagyu beef. . .!

“Happy. . .”

Meat makes me happy.

“It was good.”

Seeing me like that, Shizuku-chan laughed really happily.

Then, I heard a hoarse voice. . .

“. . . Yes.”

“Hmm, yes, what do you mean?”

After swallowing the meat and turning towards the voice, Zezgard-san was there.

Zezgard-san was holding his chest for some reason. . . . . . .Why?

“I just noticed. . . when Shizuku and Shina get along, my heart feels kind of fluffy.”

“Fluffy”

Oh, I don’t know what to say, this feeling. . . I’ve been feeling it for a long time, but. . . it’s good now too. . .”

“. . . huh”

I’m not sure.

“Okay, can Zezgard-san help Ryleigh-kun with the pork, too?”

“Yeah.”

“Shizuku-chan. I’m going to make the last dish, so can I ask for another piece of meat?”

“Yes!”

I’m scared of not knowing, so let’s get back to work. Let’s do so.

If I give Zezgard-san a mission like this, he will definitely fulfill his mission as Fufun Rush, so that’s a big help.

So, I left Zezgard-san looking at me and Shizuku-chan with some strange eyes and headed for the free-range chicken!

Since this is also grilled, I decided to grill it on a barbecue stove that is different from the place where the pork is cooked.

“Oh! Isarai Shina! Are you going to make something again!”

“Yes.”

Ha ha! Ash-san greeted me with a big laugh.

The Kei Bihei Brothers are also nearby.

“This contains a lot of Ash-san’s favorite grass.”

While saying so, I put the chicken on the grill.

Just like with the pork earlier, it made a sizzling sound and the smell spread all at once.

But unlike the pork, this time it smells more spicy!

“It’s not like I like grass.”

Ash-san raised his voice as he breathed in the spicy scent.

His cheeks were red, and his mouth was mumbling. . .

“. . .But, well, if you like grass, I like it too, or rather, if we like the same thing, it means that our tastes match, in other words, you and I-”

“Irrelevant.”

Zash.

Wow. Nice wind sound today. And then a blizzard.

“It’s dangerous! Don’t swing things around near the fire!”

“Then let’s take you to a distant place as soon as possible.”

“Stop! Don’t throw wooden sticks! What are you going to do, I don’t have any hair or collar!”

Kii! While yelling, Ash-san dashes away.

Hurst-san chased after him while creating a blizzard.

I’m sure they were just waiting on the roast beef and came here.

The two are on good terms, so they play like this. Yes. Yes. Let’s go with that.

“Isarai-sama! Then I will get the chicken!”

“Us too!”

As I watched Hurst-san and Ash-san leave, Garrez-san and the Kei Bihei Brothers offered to grill the chicken for me.

So I will leave it to them.

Like that, I ate meat together with Shizuku-chan, and while I was going around and around among everyone, the meal was finally completed. . .

“Everyone, have you made enough?”

“Yes!”

Everyone responded to my words in unison.

Thoroughly grilled roast beef, grilled pork, and jerk chicken.

Once they are baked, cut them with a knife and distribute them to everyone, and you can finally eat them!

There was a lot of meat lined up on the big table, and I smiled when I sat down on the chair.

They all look delicious.

Among them, first I took the roast beef on the fork.

“Delicious!”

It’s nothing else!

The outside is well baked, and the center is still slightly pink.

Soft when you bite into it, this red meat has a solid flavor!

Wine is added to the marinated pork sauce, and the meat juice is added to the sauce.

And next to me, Hurst-san put roast beef in his mouth.

“. . . . Delicious”

. . .The usual sign of good taste.

“This sweet sauce works well with the seasoned beef. The meat is not hardened and is very moist because it has been cooked slowly.”

“Yeah! The meat I just grilled was full of fat, but this one is refreshing!”

“Kuh. . . It’s good today. . . Gyabussh, how’s Gyabussh?”

“Ngaah!”

“Isarai Shina! This meat is amazing!”

“It’s so good!!”

“Shina-san, it’s really delicious.”

. . . Everyone says it’s delicious.

“. . . . It’s good.”

That makes me happy.

So my heart is filled with joy and I laugh.

“Both grilled pork and jerk chicken are also delicious, so please eat more and more.”

When I recommend it, everyone eats the next meat and says it’s delicious again.

True to my words, the grilled pork was the best with it’s savory outside and juicy inside, and the spicy jerk chicken was addictive.

It’s a fun time.

Then, Thruster-san came there. . .

“I need to talk to you.”

Oh no. I wonder what Thruster needs to talk about. I hope something bad didn’t happen again.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
