Otome Game Mob Villain

Chapter 360

When we arrived at the courtyard of the mansion where the event was to be held, delicious-looking dishes were already laid out on the table, filled with an aroma that tickled our stomachs.

Matilda hid her mouth with her fan as she looked around at the dishes on display.

"It smells so good."

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I know you have never tasted any of the dishes we have prepared, so I am sure you will enjoy them."

Chris, who was walking alongside her, gave a small nod and turned his attention to Matilda.

"I and the other members of the Christie Trading Company have tasted the food, and it is very delicious, so I am sure that Matilda-sama will like it as well."

"If Chris and the others say so, then I am sure that it is good."

Hiding her face with her fan, Matilda answered happily.

Chris calls Matilda "Matilda-sama" in intimate situations.

This is because His Majesty has asked her to do so.

Perhaps because of this, the two of them seem to have a very friendly atmosphere when seen from the side as they talk.

Soon after, when I saw Fara, David, and the others enjoying themselves with the other members of the Second Order, Her Majesty Matilda raised her index finger to her mouth and grinned.

I and Chris couldn't help but chuckle at the sight and nodded.

She quietly walked up behind David and whispered in his ear, "David, you look like you are having fun.

David sobbed, probably because of the sudden voice.

When his coughing subsided, he turned to His Majesty Matilda and gave her a reproachful look.

"Mother, please stop playing tricks on me like that all the time!"

''Oh, that's fine. This is also a family exchange. What are you guys eating?"

She looked at the food David and the others were about to eat.

Fara, who had been sneaking a laugh with Adi and the others, stepped forward and said, "This is a Bardia egg."

"This is one of our new snacks using Bardia eggs, 'ham and egg taiyaki."

......Ham......Taiyaki?"

David turned away and ate the taiyaki, while Kiel and Adi also tucked into the taiyaki with a delicious look on their faces.

Her Majesty Matilda, as well as the maids who accompanied her, looked on in amazement.

I looked at Farah and coughed "Gohon" to get her attention and to get her to speak.

"Then, let me explain about 'ham and egg taiyaki' first."

Matilda nodded her head and began to talk about "Taiyaki.

In fact, after researching various food cultures, I found that there are very few "castings" that are just for baking something like "Taiyaki".

Well, it may be natural if you think about it.

After all, the cost of making "castings" is not so expensive.

In the previous world, in addition to advanced processing technology, raw materials could be obtained relatively cheaply, but in this world, such technology does not exist yet, and it costs a certain amount of money to produce iron.

If we tried to make a "casting" of taiyaki as usual, the cost of raw materials and processing would be very high.

The "taiyaki" castings we are using this time are made by Ellen and others, dwarves, and Tonage, fox men, after explaining the purpose of use, so the cost has been greatly reduced.

At the time of the request, Ellen gave me a somewhat stunned look, saying, "You're asking for something eccentric again, .......

However, her evaluation turned around when I showed her the "taiyaki" made with the completed "cast metal".

It is now a favorite snack in the workshop of Ellen and her staff, who work with fire.

However, perhaps because of the craftsmen's particular tastes, the girls call the castings for social gatherings that can be baked in large quantities at once " renshiki," and the castings that can be baked piece by piece " itchoyaki," a clear distinction.

Ellen and her staff emphasized that the "ippchoyaki," in which the degree of grilling can be finely adjusted, is the one that reveals the true value of the taiyaki flavor.

As for the filling of taiyaki, in addition to "shiro-an" and "kuro-an," which are "-an" based on azuki beans and white azuki beans imported from Renalute, "ham and eggs" are made from eggs from poultry farms in Bardia territory and mayonnaise, which is a processed food.

Although a food with a different name similar to mayonnaise already existed, it was a high-class sauce known only to those in the know due to the time and effort required to process it, and it was not well known.

And since it would be in Bardia territory to market it under the name "mayonnaise," it could be marketed as a practically "new food product" as well.

The use of mayonnaise that could not be made without "castings" and processed with eggs from their own territory made "ham and egg taiyaki" a dish with a taste and appearance that had never been seen before.

'......, so perhaps it will be a taste that even Her Majesty Matilda has never tasted before."

"I see. I see. It is indeed a method of cooking that I have never heard of before."

Her Majesty looked at the process of cooking taiyaki nearby with great interest.

Soon after that, the taiyaki will be baked.

"I would like to invite Her Majesty Matilda and the maids to join us, if you don't mind."

"Yes, I would like to. It's a good opportunity, so let's all enjoy it together."

After the "ham and egg taiyaki" was delivered to the hands of all the guests, Her Majesty Matilda said, "Then, let's eat it."

Then, from all over the place, small, eerie sounds of "crunching" and "crunching" echoed.

Watching the scene with bated breath, I soon saw her roll her eyes.

"'This ...... certainly tastes like nothing I've ever tasted before.'

Her Majesty Matilda muttered to herself and continued her words as she stared at the taiyaki.

"The surface is savory and moderately hard, yet the inside is soft and fluffy with a sweet dough. And the sweetness and the salty and sour taste of the "mayonnaise" sauce intertwine in the mouth, while making the plain tasting egg and ham taste good and salty. It has that kind of taste that makes you want to take another bite ...... right away."

Then, from the maids around the area, we hear voices of agreement, such as "Indeed ......" and "It is as Your Majesty says," and at the same time, small, eerie sounds are echoing from all over the place again.

I had no idea that the "ham and egg taiyaki" would be evaluated in such a way, and I smiled inwardly at the development, which sounded like something out of a cooking cartoon, and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your kind words, Your Majesty."

After that, "taiyaki" became very popular with customers who also tried the "kuroan" and "shiroan" varieties.

Soon after, his father and His Majesty Irwin, who had noticed the bustle, joined them.

His Majesty also tasted the "ham and egg taiyaki" and said, "This is delicious! His Majesty was quite impressed, although his reaction was not so exaggerated ...... that his clothes were blowing off.

While everyone was enjoying the taiyaki, the second prince, Kiel, suddenly had a curious look on his face.

"Speaking of which, why do 'taiyaki' take the shape of a 'fish' all the way down here?"

Oh, it is because it is made in the shape of a fish called " Tai", which is said to be a lucky fish that can be caught in the sea. So it is a "tai-tai" candy.

Smiling, Kiehl responded, "I see. ......" At the same time, the temperature dropped, and after a short pause, a few hearty laughs broke out from all over the place.

After that, I continued to guide and explain to the royal family members the various dishes they were to enjoy, such as curry, steamed meat buns, eggplant ramen, pork cutlet, pork cutlet on rice, rice topped with pork cutlet, steamed rice in a bowl, sushi, and more.

By the way, for each dish, I pulled out the recipe from my memory of my previous life and asked all the cooks in the Bardia territory, led by Chef Ary.

The necessary seasonings were gathered from all over the place through the Christie Trading Company.

Of course, it was quite difficult to procure the seasonings and reproduce the flavors of the curry and other dishes, but the unexpected "beastmen" were a great help in all dishes.

The girl from the Beast Tribe who helped me came running up to me and bowed to me.
