The smoked at was delicious
“More importantly, you should eat with us, Ms. Delia. After all, it would be easier than going ho and preparing it now, wouldn’t it?”
“Uh, are you sure?”
“Of course. It is more enjoyable to eat with others. And you brought us so food. So this is our way of thanking you. Though, I am not sure if the other food will be as good as the smoked at…”
“Thank you. Then I accept your invitation…”
Ms. Delia lived alone, and since she had co out to greet us, she probably hadn’t prepared any food yet.
Besides, I knew what it was like to live alone. Sotis, I could barely even taste the food.
Things were more fun after Leo arrived… Though, she would also sotis target my food, and it was hard to resist the urge to give it to her.
“Ohh… This is even better than the smoked at I ate before.”
“Yes, it is delicious. However, I don’t know about just tossing slices into fried vegetables like this…”
As the food was ready, we all sat down to eat. After one bite, Phillip was praising the smoked at.
Nicholas was being a little harsh. But I was also expecting to eat at least so of it separately.
Phillip’s whole style of cooking seed to be to mix everything and fry them together and hope for the best. I suppose a lot of n were like that.
“Who cares, as long as it tastes good. Just look at Ms. Delia. She is not complaining like you.”
“…W-h-what?”
“…It’s nothing. Please continue to eat.”
Ms. Delia looked at him with a mouth full of food, and Phillip’s ears turned a little red.
Nicholas and I smiled at each other and then focused on eating.
I suppose he was happy to see Ms. Delia eating like that…
“It really is good. Perhaps wrapping it around the vegetables would also be great.”
“Yes, that’s a good idea, Takumi. Unlike Nicholas, you can really appreciate the taste.”
“I wasn’t saying anything… I just thought it could be improved a little. But I’ll be careful in the future…”
“…Ah, this taste… Is this made of orc at?”
“You noticed? Yes, it is usually made with orc at around these parts.”
There was a wood-like aroma that made it hard to tell. But the taste was a little familiar. And when I asked Ms. Delia, it turned out that I was right.
Orc at was like pork…it was no wonder I was thinking of ham.
Even if it tasted different.
“Is that because there are a lot of orcs around here?”
“Hmm, not really. They do not co near the village, so you only see them deep in the forest.”
“And yet you use the at a lot. Ah, you must buy it from Ractos then.”
Nicholas was curious about the orc at.
Orcs were monsters that could be defeated by people with a moderate amount of training.
“No, we hunt the orcs in the forest. After all, it is much cheaper and faster than going out to buy it.”
“…That’s true… So the villagers go hunting?”
“Recently, I have been doing most of the hunting… But the woodcutters also hunt them while they are working.”
“You, Ms. Delia? And the villagers… Isn’t it dangerous?”
It was certainly cheaper to acquire the at here, but… Hmm…
