Two hours have passed since the start of the cherry blossom viewing festival.
“The slime-baked food is delicious!”
“The yakisoba are also delicious!”
Fran and Horn, wearing matching happi coats, called out from inside the food stall. A long line had formed in front of the slime grill stall and yakisoba stall.
How did this happen? Well, at the slime grill stall, Ao and Leaf are working hard to make pancakes. And I am also making yakisoba at full speed.
“Here’s your change. And here’s your food. It’s hot, so please be careful.”
“Thanks for your patronage.”
I don’t even have time to do the accounting, so Sue and the Magician-oneesan are helping me.
“Hey, I really didn’t expect to have such a long line. The slime grill stall is rarity, and the smell of the burning sauce for the yakisoba must have led them here.”
The chairman of the executive committee was surprised by the queue, but it’s true that many people are lining up because of the smell and the novelty.
“Hahaha, there are a lot of people on the first day indeed. Well, there will be more people once it gets around lunchtime.”
“Eeh!?”
The chairman of the executive committee laughed as he spoke, but me, Ao, and Leaf were surprised.
There are more people coming to later on?
And true to the chairman’s word, Ao, Leaf and I continued to cook at the food stall until past lunchtime.
“I’m tired……”
“Hahaha, I never thought we’d run out of ingredients. It will take some time until more arrives, so take a little rest.”
It was past noon, and the noodles and toppings were gone. So, me, Ao, and Leaf were finally released from the stall.
I’m eating my yakisoba while leaning face down on the table with Ao and Leaf. I never thought that I would be casting a healing spell on myself.
Ao also casts healing spells on herself and Leaf.
“It was fun.”
“Yeah.”
Fran and Horn were happily talking to each other, and they were drinking juice with satisfaction.
I was especially concerned about Horn, but they both had very good smiles, probably because they were happy to be praised by those around them. Who knows, maybe the food stall experience will be for the better.
And in the temporary hut, the adventurers who were hired as a security guard this morning are also eating fried noodles.
“It’s just fried noodles, but it’s insanely delicious.”
“Come to think of it, there was a long line of people lining up at the stall.”
“As expected from the one who taught the chefs of the Margrave’s family.”
Wait. What did they say?
How did they know that I taught the chefs at the Margrave’s house yesterday?
“Hahaha, don’t underestimate the merchant’s information gathering. I know that you made a dish called curry at the Margrave’s place and at the inn.”
“It was you?”
“Haha. I wrote on the request that the staff meals will be prepared by the skilled chef who taught the chefs of the Margrave’s Family some special dish.”
Mr. Chairman, you are doing too much you know.
I entered the cherry blossom viewing venue as a healer, but now I ended up as a cook.
