This “Summon Kitchen” Skill is Amazing! ~Amassing Points by Cooking in Another World - CH 109
When we were looking at the pearls, the stage in the center square seemed to be in trouble.
As I heard, this town seems to be a tourist spot, and it feels like a resort area.
Other than the port with many boats, there is a white sandy beach.
And there were many detached houses with similar construction, and that was the place to stay this time.
We rented three of them.
We decided to talk before going to sleep, so we gathered in the living room of the building where Elja-san, Hurst-san, and Zezgard-san were staying.
“Today was a lot of fun!”
Elja-san laughs hahaha!
His voice echoed in the large living room.
The ceiling is higher than usual, giving it a sense of openness.
There is a three-seat sofa and two one-seat sofas facing each other. Stools were placed on both sides to surround the low table.
Me, Shizuku-chan, and Ryleigh-kun are sitting on the three-seat sofa, and Elja-san and Thruster-san are sitting on the one-seat sofas facing each other.
Yeah. . . It’s a strange feeling for Thruster-san to not be sitting at Ryleigh-kun’s feet and serving him. . . It’s scary to get used to it.
In addition, Ash-san sat on a stool and Hurst-san stood next to the three-seat sofa.
Zezgard-san is still on the run.
He must be running away from hunters.
“It was my first festival, but it was a lot of fun.”
“I had fun too.”
“Yes. I’m glad I was able to come on the day of the festival.”
Ryleigh-kun and Shizuku-chan nodded at Elja-san’s words.
I feel the same way.
I ate a lot of delicious food, and it was a really good day!
“I was really happy that I won the Grand Prize at the end! All the girls saw me and gathered around me. This is the way to travel!”
A lot of kiss marks on Elja-san’s cheeks.
. . . . Yes. He was looking forward to it.
“Because of that, I couldn’t do anything after that.”
“. . . That’s right! ‘Later’ is gone.”
Unlike Elja-san, who was able to play with girls as he wished, Hurst-san and Ash-san are unusually in agreement.
The two of them glanced at me and let out a sigh.
“Hahaha! If you say that, I haven’t played with Shina-kun either! Isn’t that great! We still have more travel dates to go!”
Elja-san laughs at those two.
Then Thruster-san placed something on the low table.
“We got this while you guys were fooling around.”
What Thruster-san put on the low table.
It’s the pair of pearl earrings that he bought at that dubious shop.
“This is?”
In an instant, Elja-san changed his expression and focused on the pearl.
The purple eyes were a serious color, as if the face until just now was a lie.
“Amazing, I’ve never seen a stone like this before.”
“Oh. . . is this a stone?”
“The owner of the shop where I bought it said it was a stone.”
Hurst-san agrees with Elja-san.
From the way he spoke, I could sense that pearls were not common in this world.
“When we entered the alley, we were called out and taken to a basement store. This is what they sold there.”
“Wait. Then, while we were on the stage, did Shina-sama also enter a suspicious store?”
“Yes. I decided that it would be safer for the four of us to be together than to be separated.”
“I’m sorry. I was thinking that if something were to happen, I should just run away to the kitchen with Shizuku-chan. . . I found out from Thruster-san’s nose that there was information.”
Yes. Because he’s a truffle pig.
I also explained the situation to Hurst-san, who was looking down at Thruster-san with cold eyes.
Because it’s cold. . . The temperature in this room has dropped. . .
Hurst-san shook his head.
“I don’t want to object to Shina-sama’s judgement. I just wanted to be by your side.”
“Impossible. It seems they were targeting male and female tourists who seemed to have money. If Volvi and the others were there, they wouldn’t have spoken to us.”
Thruster-san immediately cut off Hurst-san’s words.
That’s right. . . I think it probably wouldn’t have been good if Hurst-san was there.
“Since Ryleigh-kun was with us, I thought we were safe. In the end, I just believed in Thruster-san’s love for Ryleigh-kun.”
The one who can be trusted is Thruster-san who is panting.
“. . . Certainly, Thruster-san can be trusted for one thing: his love for Ryleigh.”
Yes. One point only.
“I understand that Hurst-san is worried about us. Thank you.”
Yes. Hurst-san is not angry that we entered a suspicious shop, but he is really worried.
So, I looked up at Hurst-san and smiled.
In addition. . .
“I thought that if anything happened, Hurst-san would come right away.”
It’s always been there in my chest.
If Hurst-san is there, it will be absolutely fine.
“. . . Really, I’m no match for Shina-sama.”
Hurst-san’s light blue eyes narrowed softly.
Thruster-san continued talking as if he had confirmed that the temperature in the room had returned to normal.
“Let’s get to the point. From what the shopkeeper told me, this stone has recently been mined around here and is being traded secretly. New minerals and specialty products have been created. They are supposed to report the case to the country, but there is no report about this stone.”
“That’s right. It’s a story I don’t know.”
Elja-san nodded at Thruster-san’s words.
Since the next prime minister and the crown prince don’t know about it, they must have just started their business, or they may be hiding.
If it’s just a stone, I don’t think it’s important enough even if it’s a little problem.
But this pearl wasn’t just sold as an accessory. . .
“You know, that stone seems to have magical powers.”
“Did Ryleigh see it?”
“Yeah. It’s the same as the magic stone I’m wearing. I can feel the pure, dark magic.”
“Magic power. . .”
“No way!”
Ryleigh-kun answers Elja-san’s question.
Having magic seems to be very important, and Elja-san’s eyes became more serious.
In addition, Hurst-san and Ash-san spill their words.
Ryleigh-kun’s words seemed to surprise everyone.
“Um, is it that amazing that it has magical power?”
Shizuku-chan timidly joined the conversation.
We don’t understand the common sense of this world, so we don’t really understand everyone’s surprise.
“The red stone you’re wearing can be obtained from magic beasts, right?”
“Yeah. Vol-san got it and processed it.”
Ryleigh-kun nodded back at my words.
Then Thruster-san added an explanation.
“Magic stones can only be harvested from magical beasts. And only the red stone that Ryleigh is wearing exists. The country manages and uses it.”
“Nowadays, it’s rarely used except for the barrier device that Shizuku-kun used and the large-scale devices!”
“Even if you defeat magic beasts, you can only collect a few magic stones. I don’t think it’s worth it to risk your life.”
The weight of the words is precisely because Hurst-san, who faced the magic beasts in the Northern Knights.
“Because I couldn’t live without magic stones. . .”
Ryleigh-kun said so and gently touched the red stone on his chest.
I think it’s rare to see someone using it like this.
“I’m glad I was able to travel with you, Ryleigh-kun.”
I gently stroked his fluffy blue hair.
When you can spend time like this, it’s not something you take for granted.
Because you overcame many hardships and painful things.
So there is now.
“Shina-san’s kindness helped me.”
Ryleigh-kun, who said that and laughed. . .
“Shina-san remade everything about me.”
. . . .He smiles enchantingly.
. . . . . Should not! That’s not good! My soft side! Escape!
But my order to evacuate was in vain, and Ryleigh-kun’s enchantment grew stronger. . .
“Because you put Shina-san’s big and hot stuff inside me.”
Bad words.
Ryleigh has to be doing that on purpose. There is no way it happens on accident that often.
