 When he peeked into the common room.

"Ah, Jin-sama, it's been a while."

"Uh, Lyanna?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com


Yes. I'm now in charge of Avalon.

 Lyanna was the leader of the second team of the Royal Secret Maids. She is a master of self-defense.

"Is that a promotion ......?"

Of course it is. We're the second team and we'll be transferring directly to the new position.

The second group is ......

 The Royal Secret Maids that I met when I visited the Kingdom of Egelea in the past.

Yes, I am Mary, Kate, and Lisa. I am the only one accompanying you this time.

"Lila is now with His Highness the Prince, isn't she?"

 One more person, Laila Soluç, who was in Jin's charge, is now with the third prince and will not be coming to .

"Yes. ......And also, His Highness wanted to come with us to this meeting, but was not allowed. So I have a message for Mr. Jin to give his regards.

"I see, thank you very much."

 Jin then saw a familiar face in the back of the room.

"Jin-dono? It's been a while.

 It was Pascoe Rush.

 He is the third son of Baron Rush, who worked with Licia to transport the cure for the magical exhaustion fever that once ravaged the Klein Kingdom.

"I've just been knighted from apprentice. I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused you,......."

 Pascoe bows his head lightly, and Jin thinks that he has changed a lot.

 Whereas before his aristocratic arrogance was on display in a bad way, now civility seems to have overtaken it. Or perhaps, as he has learned more about Jin, he has realized that he cannot treat him lightly.

"I hear that you have maintained this <> together with Makina-dono. I respect your skill.

"Thank you."

 Jin returned the polite words politely.



 At that moment.

"Dinner is ready, sir.

 The people in the common room all stand up at once, and Jin thinks, "Oh....

 In fact, the food served at the last <> had been so well received that expectations were high for this year's event as well.

 Not only those who had eaten at the last conference but also those who attended the conference for the first time this time have heard about it by word of mouth and have high expectations for this year's conference.

The first time I ate there, I was very much looking forward to it.



"Oh?

What is this?

What in the world is this?

 One of the main items on the menu this time was .

 It is a food made by kneading fish paste with salt, shaping it, and then heating it to harden it.



"It is made by processing fish."

 Jin, the provider, explains.

 In fact, the Peridos, who are in charge of household chores in Bongnae Island, selected suitable fish through trial and error.

 They mainly use white fish from saltwater, and add salt to make it sticky. A small amount of starch is added to the mixture to give it a more even texture.



 This time we made <<<.

 Each of them is kneaded and then heated by .

 When Jin explains this to the group, there are shouts of "Oh!

"What the hell kind of meat is this ......?"

 There was another new dish on the menu.

"It is called . It is the meat of a juvenile dragon eel from the Kingdom of Klein.

"My God!"

 The dragonhead eel (dragon eels) grows to over three meters in length as an adult, and its flesh is tough and difficult to eat, but the flesh of juveniles less than one meter long is delicious, much like that of eels from the earth.

 Perido and his team also took great pains to recreate the sauce for kabayaki, and this is the first time they have presented it to the public.

"We can catch dragon head eels (dragon eels) in large numbers," said Peridot. If we are careful not to let them become extinct, they can be a good food source.

"Well, my hat is off to you."

 Even Alois III, who loves raw river fish, was both amused and delighted by the broiled dragonhead eel (dragon eels).

 Of course, the others also enjoyed the kabayaki.

The smell is very appetizing, isn't it?

"It will taste even better if you pour this on top if you like.




 Jin sprinkled powder in a small container and showed it to me.

"Hajikami," he said.

 It was sansho (Japanese pepper) powder.

"Oh, this has a nice aroma," he said.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com



"It has a different aroma from that of pepper.

I would like to try it with other dishes.

 The people gathered here were smacking their lips at the kabayaki and the fish paste.

"Now, please try this with these dishes.

 The sake served was sake. It goes great with fish dishes.

"I thought this sake was also sweet on its own, but when paired with food, it is excellent.

 Reinhardt, who is a wine lover, tasted this sake and gave his approval. It was no wonder the guests liked it so much.

"I don't think it's a great taste, but it's a very gentle taste.

 One of them described the fish paste as such.

"You can eat it every day and not get tired of it. You can eat it every day and not get tired of it.

 As before, the rice was also well received.

"Hmmm, is it the way you cook it differently? It doesn't work like this at home.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com



"You might want to polish the rice just before cooking."

 More and more aristocrats prefer white rice.

 The rice harvest seems to have doubled in the past two years, which makes Jin happy.

 Of course, we also welcome the delicious bread and noodles made from wheat.



"Oh, here they come. I can't forget the last time I had this!"

 A person who liked Miso Soup.

"I'm glad to have this again!"

 Meat topopo was also a hit.
