After they had walked for a while, a familiar sight appeared in front of Shin and Schnee. Needless to say, it was Tsuki no Hokora.
Because the wooden sign at the door said 『The storekeeper has left home』, it seemed like the store was already closed. Naturally it was locked, but Shin was the owner, and Schnee was registered as an employee. So the lock automatically opened when Shin put his hand on the door, and the door swung open.
The store hadn’t changed much from the last time that Shin visited, and there was a faint scent of dinner in the air.
“It can’t be helped, my stomach is grumbling.”
“I’m hungry~”
Shin held his belly, and Yuzuha, who had been silent for a long time, also raised its voice. Whether it could read the mood or not, it appeared to be bored because it had hardly barked while they had traveled with Wilhelm and Rashia. Now it was being carried by Shin.
“It’s just the right time, let’s have dinner first.”
They both nodded at Schnee’s proposal as she canceled her disguise, and then the sound of a person running loudly, probably from the main room to the counter’s interior, was heard.
“Master!!”
Surprised Tiera
It was Tiera, who was tending the store. She had probably heard the sound of the bell chime when they entered the store.
She appeared to be out of breath while holding a kitchen knife. She might have been in the middle of cooking as not even a little sense of danger came from her.
“Calm down. You are too flustered.”
“S-Sorry. But, as I wrote in the message card, a person came and told me he was master’s acquaintance, and then he left some amazing things behind!!”
Though the person in question was right in front of her, it seemed like she hadn’t noticed yet, probably because of her panicked state.
“Is this person the one?”
“AHH! T-That’s certainly right, but…Eh? Why are Shin and master together?”
Tiera became aware of Shin’s existence only after Schnee stepped sideways. But now the question of why the two people were together came out from her mouth.
It was because Tiera thought that her master should still be in the Wraith Plains and had no clue as to why the two of them were together. Aside from Schnee, Shin should still be in the plains when one thought about it with this world’s common sense.
“Just some various things have happened. Can we have dinner before we move on to the detailed story?”
“Because we had a bit of a complicated situation yesterday, it might take a long time to explain.”
*Sigh* “I understand…then Shin too, is gonna eat with us?”
Tiera, who didn’t know the circumstances, responded to Shin who talked like it was only natural.
“Of course he will.”
“Eh? Of course…what?”
“…Come to think of it, no one has told you yet, right Tiera? This person here is the ‘Manager’ of Tsuki no Hokora, Shin.”
Schnee smoothly dropped a bomb there.
“The man..a..ger?…Ah, the manager…THE MANAGEERRR!?”
It took a while for the word, “manager” to register in Tiera’s brain.
Tiera’s reaction when she finally understood what Schnee meant was as followed; she opened her eyes wide, her mouth formed an ‘O’ shape, and she almost dropped the kitchen knife she was holding. She was indeed easy to read.
“Isn’t she is a bit too surprised?”
“Because the common knowledge among the general public is that you don’t exist anymore, it’s no wonder that she is so surprised.”
“Who wouldn’t be surprised!? The manager, the… legendary manager!?”
“Eh? What? Am I known as the legendary manager?”
“That’s not it!! I mean a High Human!!”
“But, didn’t I tell you that when we first met?”
“Normally no one would believe it…”
The scene of Tiera losing her composure alone was amusing, but Shin was beginning to think that this might be the normal response. Like Tiera said, normally if someone said “I am High Human” or something like that, no one would take them seriously. But the best witness, Schnee Raizar, was here. Because she wouldn’t mistake the person she had actually served, it could be said that her testimony about Shin being the real deal, a High Human, was the definite proof. In the meantime, Tiera’s face turned pale.
“I’m terribly sorry, I didn’t realize you were the manager!!”
“Yes?”
“Kuu!”
She was completely transformed from the shock. Tiera bowed vigorously.
This time, it was Shin’s turn to be surprised.
What was she thinking of, because Yuzuha put its paw on the lowered head of Tiera, and Shin also stopped her immediately.
(This is…that, huh? That feeling when the other party casually speaks to their superior. Even though I experienced that shock, I still got flustered.)
The partner with whom Shin got along with, at his old part-time job, was in fact the shop manager, so he could understand a bit of Tiera’s feelings. Though it wasn’t a straight comparison, the partner who unbeknownst talked overly familiarly with their superior, often fretted and felt embarrassed when they found out.
Seeing Tiera in a flustered state made Shin unconsciously feel some pity.
“Don’t worry about it. I understand your feelings.”
“Eh? Oh, yes.”
While nodding, he put his hand on Tiera’s shoulder.
Of course, Tiera didn’t know that Shin’s thoughts expressed understanding, and his action caused her to become even more confused.
“No, really, don’t mind it. It’s weird and embarrassing for me too, if you obey respectfully at this point.”
“R-Really? You won’t say something like, ‘Get out of here’?”
“I won’t say it!?”
What kind of unreasonable action was this!? He wanted to retort.
After that, they talked for a little while, and it concluded in the same manner as before. Aside from Shin being Schnee’s master, because there was more trouble when Yuzuha was introduced and could talk, Tiera had a similar reaction as before, so the rest of the story was omitted.
“Then, shall we eat?”
After a short period of discussion, all three people and one animal sat down together at the dining table. Needless to say, they had taken a bath prior to eating because they were covered with dirt.
They appeared to be in unity as they clapped their hands while saying “itadakimasu”. Elves didn’t seem to have such a custom, but because Schnee did it, Tiera too, did the same.
And Schnee was certainly imitating Shin.
“But, as expected from Schnee. All of them look delicious.”
It was only natural that Shin praised her. The dishes that were arranged on the table were something that was not very often seen, even by Shin.
Even if the pinnacle of chefs, Cook, was in Rokuten, they didn’t eat homemade dishes every day. Moreover, the skill level Ⅹ of ultra high-class cooking was not meant to be eaten at every meal. It was sometimes made only by experimenting, and there was the possibility of serving a terrible failure of a dish, too.
However, the dishes in front of Shin were not that inferior when compared to Cook’s high class dishes. As she compensated her skill with special flavors that were from this world, the dishes rivaled the best menus in a row.
In front of that type of meal, that even the royal family might not be able to eat, it was no wonder that the sounds of gulping in his throat resounded.
“Kuu~ A feast, a feast!”
“I have never seen Master cooking like this until now…Master is serious.”
“Of course I am.”
Yuzuha, who saw the dishes lined up, was also in high spirits.
Tiera, who lived together with her for a long time, was also astonished at Schnee’s enthusiastic attitude.
“When it comes to a great dish like this, it’s worthwhile to supply the ingredients.”
“Amazing~”
“Hey, though I heard a little, just what on earth did you supply? There is a weird aura coming out of the dish.”
“Ehh?”
“Kuu?”
When Tiera said that an aura came from the dish, Shin stiffened. Yuzuha tilted its head.
Even though nothing was displayed in Shin’s eyes, he recalled the ingredients which he handed to Schnee. And it was not strange that Tiera, an elf, said that the dishes radiated an aura.
“Th-That right. The main meats are Thermal Leo, Orc King, and parts of Elmora. The vegetables are Blood Radish, Karma Onion, and Baocha Potato or something like that. The fruits are the Topaz Pear and Fruit of Idea. The others are somewhat proper. I guess you used the ingredients you had stocked up after that?”
“Indeed. I have used a few high-class ingredients because today is special. Though I didn’t have enough time to do anything special.”
Schnee’s words seemed like she was indirectly saying “I’m not serious yet”.
And speaking of Tiera, who just heard the name of the ingredients.
“W.. WH.. WHAT’S THAT!? Almost all of the ingredients are extremely hard to obtain!! I’ve never even heard of some of them before until now. Moreover, when you say Fruit of Idea, it’s the fruit of dreams that only bears fruit once every 100 years. Though I was told that the real deal didn’t even exist anywhere…”
She was at her wit’s end after hearing the names of the ingredients which left Shin’s mouth.
Thermal Leo and Orc King, were both acknowledged as monsters of calamity. As soon as they were discovered, there was such a degree of danger, that the guild conveyed an urgent summons for all of the adventurers. Even though Tiera hadn’t heard of the name Elmora, because it was treated on the same rank as the previous 2, she could imagine that it might be a similar one.
Blood Radish was a vegetable similar to a half monster that grew by sucking out demon essence from the air, and Baocha Potato was a tuber vegetable that exploded from a certain amount of pressure, just like a landmine.
As for the Topaz Pear, its surface glistened like a jewel, and about the Fruit of Ideas, there was no need to say anymore.
Once they were put together, one did not expect them to be used for cooking.
“Hey, Schnee. What aura does Tiera refer to?”
“It’s similar to the remains of the life force and magic
