Chapter 22: Danger

「Oh, no, if you’re fine, then it’s nothing…」

Rofas-san sighed a breath of relief and staggered over to an empty seat at the table .

「Still, if an S-ranked adventurer like Rofas-san was out of breath, then something scary must’ve happened . 」

「Well, when I got to the intermediate dungeon, I heard that there was a lot of smoke coming from the potion field, so…」

Eh? So he rushed back because he was worried about us?

Rofas-san combed up the hair hanging off of his forehead and attempted to fix his disheveled hair .

His facial expression showed how relieved he was . He started smiling as he tried to catch his breath .

「You’re amazing, Rofas-san! We’re a few hours away from the intermediate dungeon, but you ran all the way here!」

Kurtz-kun’s eyes glittered in respect .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

「I’m quite tired now, as expected . 」

Although Rofas-san said he was tired, he didn’t try to shoot down Kurtz-kun’s compliment .

「Sorry for making you worry . We had been smoking some meat, so that’s where all the smoke came from . 」

Bryce-kun lowered his head in apology .

「Smoking? Actually, what’s going on here?」

Now that Rofas-san had calmed down, he looked at all the dishes lined up on the table .

「Um, you see, Yuuri-oneechan is cooking for us!」

Kirikchan said . Rofas-san looked over at me .

I served a piece of the kakuni onto a plate and handed it to Rofas-san .

「To be correct, everyone is cooking with me . Please try some, if you’d like . 」

「Oh, uhh, thank you . I’ve never seen any of these dishes before . I see, everyone made it together . 」

Rofas-san pierced the pork kakuni with a fork .

「Uwah, is this really meat? It’s so soft!」

The fork pierced through the kakuni and clashed against the plate .

「Pft, Kurtz-kun said the same thing . 」

Rofas-san’s actions were the same, down to the fork hitting the plate . It wouldn’t be strange if they were parent and child .

「It’s tasty . 」

The moment he put the entire chunk of kakuni into his mouth, he looked delighted .

That made me happy .

「Can I have some more?」

「Of course . 」

「Rofas-san, please try it together with the “bad wheat”, instead of bread . 」

Bryce-kun scooped some rice into a bowl and handed it to Rofas-san .

「Bad wheat? Don’t tell me you guys ran out of stock for bread and potatoes? Sorry, I’ll replenish it as soon as I can . 」

Rofas-san looked sorry .

「No, we still have a lot, but the bad wheat tastes better . 」

Kurtz-kun explained, causing Rofas-san to look down at the bowl of rice .

「Isn’t this a strange way of eating it? Does the wheat taste better if you don’t turn them into bread?」

Rofas-san scooped some rice with his fork and ate it .

「I see now . The appearance is strange, but it certainly doesn’t taste bad . No, it actually tastes quite good if you mix it with the broth!」

Rofas-san poured the sauce that the kakuni simmered in on top of the rice and ate it that way . If he was at a beef bowl restaurant, he’d be the type to order a beef bowl with more sauce!

Ah, I might be able to make beef bowls now too . Okay, if I get my hands on some beef-like meat, I’ll make it . I wonder if I could get some wine? I could make it with cooking sake, but I wanted to make it with wine .

Meanwhile, Rofas-san silently stood up, refilled his bowl of rice, poured some broth on top, and then devoured all of it together with the kakuni .

「Ahh!! Rofas-san is eating everything! Kirika was planning to have seconds!」

「Oh, sorry, it’s just that it tastes so good, so… Huh?」

Rofas-san began shaking his head slightly .

「Um, is something the matter?」

「I didn’t drink any potions, but for some reason I feel like my energy’s returning . 」

Ah, so he noticed too .

「There are potions in this, you know? They were used to season the dish . 」

「What?!」

Rofas-san slammed his hands against the table and stood up .

「How much did you guys put in?! Everyone, stop eating now . Yuuri, you probably don’t know this, but drinking too much potion can poison you . 」

「Eh, really? I-I’m sorry, I really didn’t know…」

What have I done?!
