The next day, I stood in front of the front door of the mansion, anxiously waiting for the emperor.

　Even though we were a highborn aristocrat and my father and the emperor were on good terms, I couldn't believe that the emperor would personally visit our vassal's residence.
　Inside the mansion, our servants have been bustling around since morning. Even the calm Sebastian, who had never seen them in a hurry in his life, seemed to be on edge at the emperor's visit.

　The head maid rushes to the front door, shaking her large body.
Your Majesty, the emperor has arrived!

　Almost at the same time as the voice, a distinctly opulent carriage, surrounded by a number of escort carriages, entered the grounds .
　...... It really came .......
　What, in a previous life, it's like the Emperor came to our house, right?
　No, no, no, hahaha ....... ...... Huh?　Are you sure?
　As the carriage came to a stop in front of the front door, a group of strong guards descended, and one of them opened the luxurious carriage door.

　Then the emperor got out of the carriage and smiled as if he had come for a walk around the area, spreading his arms out in a casual manner.
　Then the emperor turned to his father.
'Three years ago we were both busy with replacements and we didn't see each other for a while, but how are you doing?'

　Then Dad was reverent.
Yes, it is a pleasure to inform you that... It is my great pleasure to inform you that His Majesty is in good health and is doing well.

Hey, hey, I told you to stop using honorific language except in an official capacity.

"Oh, Orton, I was just kidding you on purpose. This is your first time here as emperor, right?

You're the first 'Emperor's Reception' you've ever had as head of the family.

Yeah, we've been having a field day this morning.

"I'm sorry to hear that. You can tell people I'm off duty. It may be a little late for that.

As the Emperor and Dad were laughing at each other, a lovely voice sounded from the side.

"Dad, don't take too long to talk on the way out.
　As he pushed the emperor aside, a silver-haired girl about my age came out.

　She's cute. She's a pretty girl.
　The emperor pats the girl with her mouth agape and pats her on the head.

Oh, I'm sorry. --Dioruk, this is my daughter, Shelia.

Hey, you're as pretty as they say. It's a pleasure to meet you, Shelia.
　When Dad greeted the girl, Shelia, Shelia picked up her skirt and bent her knees lightly, greeting her like a full-fledged lady.

'It's nice to meet you. I'm Shelia.
　Ka, cute: ......!
　No, no, no, it's not like I'm a pedophile, right?　In a little animal way!

　As I'm making excuses in my chest, Dad points to the Emperor.
"This is my son, Leonce.
　I, too, will bow to the Emperor and Shelia in good manners.


Then more voices came from inside the carriage.
Oh, you're so pretty. He's definitely going to be a good man one day. That's what I thought of Mr. Diorc and Kara's baby!
　Out of the carriage with a high-pitched voice was the queen. Her eyes were sparkling and she was looking straight at me.

''Long time no see, Ashley!　I've missed you!
　Your mother runs to the queen.

Me too, Carla!
　The two of them are holding each other's hands and are so buoyant that they could hold hands and twirl around at any moment.

　Dad laughed at them with a mixture of dismay.
I'm sure we have a lot to talk about, but we'll talk about it later. Why don't we all enjoy a nice lunch first?


　Then he took the emperor and his men to the lunch room.
　This lunch had been prepared early in the morning by the people at home.
　The food was absolutely gorgeous and delicious.

Everyone take your seats!
　My dad will seat us all in a chair.

　And with one glass of booze.
So, here's to welcoming Orton, Ashley, and little Shelia!

「「「「「「 Cheers!!!」」」」」」
　And so began a tense lunch.

　And each of them reached for a dish they wanted to eat.
Whenever I come back, the food is always so good. Every time I return to the castle, I can't resist the urge to try it again.
　The Emperor raved about our food as he ate it.

''I've never seen such rare and delicious food before!
　The queen is eating her food with a big smile on her face, as if there was such a food in the world.

Speaking of which, Ashley and Shelia have never cooked for the Forster family before. This dish is food from the home of the brave men.
　As he spoke, the emperor took a large hamburger steak, cut it into large pieces, and threw it into his mouth.

　Then the emperor said to me and I realized that our food is from the previous life.
　The food on the table was fried chicken, pizza, and gratin: ....
　I had never eaten anywhere else, so I never thought about the food culture of this world.



'Oh, is it the taste of home, my brave friend? That must be delicious!

I'm glad you like it. It's my father's prized possession that he and our head chef came up with the recipe for.

'I'm sorry Diork, but ..... Could I have that recipe? Please, for the rest of your life! Every time I've had to endure three years of this food, I've hated it, and I've dreamed that if I became emperor, I would definitely ask you for help.
As he said this, the emperor bowed his head so hard he thought his head was going to land on the desk and begged his father for help.

Did you ever think about that? It's not like I was keeping the recipe a secret, so I could have given it to you whenever you asked me to.

'Oh, I didn't know that: ...... Why, why couldn't I ask you about the recipe ......
The emperor had his head in his hands, regretting his actions.

I don't know how much you love our food.
I can't believe you became an emperor because you dreamed of getting a recipe: ......

'Come on, let's put a more positive spin on it! Now you'll be able to eat every day.

'This, every day from now on! Yes, you can't help but regret what you've done so far: ..... From now on, you can eat every day: .....
At my father's words, the dead-eyed emperor's eyes changed from dead to alive, as if he couldn't wait to get started.

Oh, you're looking better. I'll have the chef prepare the recipe for you before we leave. For now, let's just enjoy what we have. Then we'll go for a dip in the hot springs.

　Then lunch continued as the adults talked happily and the kids just listened to it: ....
