Chapter 250
Special XX
After returning to Austin-sama’s place together with Cloud-sama, we got permission to cook the dinner safely .
Therefore, I was led to the kitchen to make the food as soon as possible, but Allen and Elena stayed in the room . With the drawing tools and Kevin-san .
“Now then, what do I make?”
It seems that this kitchen was used by the previous Queen——Rain-sama and Cloud-sama’s grandmother . The previous Queen was apparently just an innkeeper’s daughter, and sometimes used this kitchen to cook in secret .
It was a happy miscalculation for me, because I had thought that I would have to borrow a corner of the royal kitchen .
I mean, it would interfere with the cooks at work, and from my experience, things would probably turn troublesome .
Still… this is a situation where “stealthy” and “unobtrusive” are possible .
“Speaking of a menu that kids might be happy with… maybe that?”
First, I took out the mincer and Armored Buffalo meat from the Infinite Storage and made ground meat . Next, I chop some spring onions, stir-fry them and remove from the heat .
I then knead the ground beef with the stir-fry onions, bread crumbs, milk, eggs, salt and pepper .
The kids will probably love this, it’s the hamburger . I’ve made hamburgers before, but it’s a necessary dish to what I’m going to make after!
“Next is…”
I let the kneaded ground meat rest for a while, shaped them, and grilled .
“They said they wanted to eat pudding, so let’s make that for the dessert . I have to cook the white wheat, too!”
I don’t have to worry about the food getting cold by storing it into the Infinite Storage, so I continued working without worrying about the cooking order .
“Now then, this is where the real work starts . ”
I peeled the shells of the largish shrimps I got in the Dungeon of Ripples, leaving the tails out, and fried them in order with flour, eggs, and breadcrumbs .
Next was the rice . I mixed it with finely chopped stir-fry vegetables, making butter rice . I then wrapped it in pan-fried eggs .
“The rest is the arrangement . ”
What I made was hamburgers, omurice, and ebi fry . I tried to arrange it in a way the kids would like it .
I didn’t forget about the sauce, ketchup and tartar sauce on it . Plus a salad, soup, and pudding on separate plates .
“And it’s done!”
A special kid’s lunch… it’s not noon, so it’s a children’s plate? Anyhow, it’s complete!
It’s mini-sized for the kids, but quite a big volume for adults .
I stored the food in the Infinite Storage and went to the room to pick up the twins .
“Allen, Elena, sorry to have kept you waiting~”
“”Onii~chan!””
When I entered the room, the kids jumped off the bed and rushed to me .
“Were you guys behaving?”
“”Yeah . ””
“We were . ”
“Good children . ”
I patted the heads of the two twins who were hugging me .
“How did it go, were you able to draw a picture?”
“Yea, look, look~”
“We drew lots~”
Allen and Elena hurried to the bed and brought the paper on which they were drawing .
“Let me see . ”
When I took a look at the pictures the two were drawing, they were each different but all shared the same subject . That was Allen, Elena, and me . And also, Joule, Feat, Bolt, Vector, and Mile .
“You’ve drawn everyone~”
“”Yeah!””
Allen’s picture had everyone hugging on top of huge Vector while Elena’s drew me hugging the twins and Joule and others in their small forms .
“Both are so good!”
“”Ehehe~””
This is no flattery . The two’s drawing had everyone drawn with their features firmly captured, so they were properly good drawings .
“I will leave the crayons with you, so draw more when you have the time for it . ”
“”Yea!””
After complimenting them a lot, I turned to Kevin-san who took care of the children for me .
“Thank you very much, Kevin-san . ”
“The two were quietly drawing, so I was just relaxing in the room with them . ”
“Nono, even so . ”
Even though I know Allen and Elena would listen and obediently stay in the room, I was more relieved with an adult by their side, so I had to say proper thanks .
“Well then, I believe Austin-sama and Cloud-sama’s group should be already waiting for us, so we should go . ”
“Ou, see you later . ”
“Allen, Elena, you are hungry, right? Let’s have dinner . ”
“”Yea! Looking forward to it!””
While guiding the twins outside the room, I quietly took out the extra dishes on the table in the room so that they couldn’t see them .
“Ah, this is for you, Kevin-san . ”
“Oh, thanks . ”
Sensing my intentions, Kevin-san thanked me in a way it wouldn’t arouse the children’s attention .
“Onii~chan . ”
“Quickly~”
“Yes, yes~”
“”Where to~?””
“The room we talked in this afternoon . ”
“”Moving shelf~?””
“Correct . The room with the moving cupboard . ”
“”Then, this way~””
The children had a firm grasp on the room’s location, so they advanced without hesitation .
“”It’s there~””
When the room in question came to view, there were knight guards standing in front of the door . Moreover, they were both Guardia’s and Creta’s guards .
That means the princes are already inside .
“Excuse me . Sorry to have kept you waiting!”
When we entered the room, the three princes were already there as expected .
We made it before the promised time, but even so, we were still the last ones to arrive…
“Takumi, you are still early, no need to apologize . ”
“That’s right . We just gathered here too early . ”
Austin-sama and Rain-sama smiled with soft smiles .
Cloud-sama suddenly stood up, faced the twins and spread his arms .
“Alright, come!”
“”! Here I gooo!””
Allen and Elena who noticed Cloud-sama’s intention jumped into Cloud-sama’s waiting arms .
“Ohh!”
Cloud-sama was able to catch the kids properly this time .
“Oh, we did it, we did it . ”
“”Did it~””
When Cloud-sama made a delighted expression while holding Allen and Elena in his arms, the two smiled happily, too .
“Takumi, just what is that about?”
Austin-sama and Rain-sama were surprised by the sudden interaction between Cloud-sama and the twins, and Austin-sama sought answers from me .
“Erm, they did the same when we went to look at the gryphons, but that time, Allen and Elena ended up pushing down Cloud-sama, so… I guess it’s a re-try?”
“Puh…”
When I explained, Rain-sama spilled a laugh, while Austin-sama smiled wryly .
“C, Cloud, you were pushed down by the kids?”
“I got overwhelmed splendidly . ”
“I’d like to see that . ”
“That’s not going to happen again . I will have you try next time, Rain . ”
“No, please keep that privilege, Cloud . ”
… I would be troubled if there was a second time .
“Allen, Elena, normally, if you are rude to a prince, you would get scolded, you know?”
“”Is that so?””
I took Allen and Elena from Cloud-sama’s hands and gave them a warning to not do it again .
… It was very difficult warning them since it was me who told them to do it in the first place, but it would be best to not repeat this .
“Yes, it is . Therefore, please don’t do that again . ”
“”Ehh~””
“Cloud-sama . ”
“Said come, though~?”
“That’s true, but…”
Allen and Elena showed dissatisfied faces to my words .
That’s right . I told them to do it the first time, and Cloud-sama himself told them to do it the second time, huh~ Then, Allen and Elena wouldn’t really understand what I am trying to warn them about, right~
“Takumi-dono, there’s no problem with that . ——Allen-kun, Elena-san, definitely try to push down Cloud the next time . ”
“”Got it~””
While trying to figure out how to convince them, Rain-sama gave them permission to push Cloud-sama down and there was nothing more I could say .
Well, what I was worried was lese majeste, so everything’s fine as long as they have no problem with it~ besides, they won’t have many opportunities to push down Cloud-sama down in the future .
