Isekai de Kojiin wo Hiraitakedo, Nazeka Darehitori Sudatou to Shinai Ken Chapter 46 part1

I safely completed making the prototype mirror and now I was returning to the orphanage with Clarissa.

Her parents have also been bereaved, a future of an orphan and managing a second-hand shop hence she wasn't able to make friends.

In the orphanage there is Lucia, Elin, Shii and also Laara that's why we should go there as soon as possible so she can become good friends with them.

But the girls sitting around the table were somewhat nervous.

"Ehm, what's wrong with you girls? Did I do something perhaps?"

"No. How do I say this…? It's certainly that concerns Master but also is out of reach for Master… You don't understand since you're not a girl it's kinda delicate matter."

Lucia had a troubled expression and said something like that.

Un, what's going on?

A question mark was floating on my head.

"I will definitely not hand the 2nd place!"

"I also will defend the 3rd place to my last breath! I have the dignity of the Spirit Deity!"

"I'm the runner-up to Silvy's place, so I also have dignity of 5th place!"

The other girls opened their mouths and voiced their opinions.

Fumu, as I thought I understood nothing.

It seems the positions are important so it must be a competition for something.

What kind of competition is it?

While thinking that Lucia opened her mouth again.

"Ehm, Clarisschan, I have just a question but is Clarissa fine being on good terms like this?"

She asked with an anxious expression.

I was relieved and sighed.

What, it was a discussion about everyone to get along.

Even so it's different from the conversation when men are becoming friends.

For some reason there was a time where everyone's eyes were like the sharp eyes of a wolf aiming for prey.

Receiving her question, Clarissa began to speak.

"I belong to Master. I vowed to offer everything to Master. That's why I have no intention to cause trouble to everyone. That's definitely something that Masatsugu doesn't wish for. Besides I'm also afraid of being thrown. Probably I wouldn't live. That is why he belongs to everyone. Monopoly is definitely prohibited. That is how everyone will be happy!"

While she was saying that she sent fleeting gazes this way and hang her head down which for some reason her cheeks were red.

Fumu, being thrown and monopoly prohibited, in what kind of meaning?

Who in the world would throw somebody or monopolize who?

I cocked my head in doubt and tried to articulate my thoughts.

But

"That is exactly right! Clarisschan! Only one being chosen is definitely a disaster!"

"Yei, let's get along from now on! Let's all be happy!"

"Masatsugu-san has a really big capacity, surely any number will be fine~"

"Umu, we'll all be married for life."

All of the girls gave their approval to her.

For some reason the nervousness that was lying around them disappeared and instead bonds resembling like solidarity was born between them.

Uumu, I understand little.

From their conversation now just what exactly has been born?

No matter how much I think I cannot understand so I gave up and asked the girls.

But the girls

"To master it's a secret!"

"That's right. Please wait for us until we get much bigger!"

"Yes, yes everyone will be happy!"

"Nay, rather we'll make Masatsugu-dono happy!"

They gave me a reply which was as I thought so I didn't understand much.

I was troubled so I looked at Clarissa.

"I intended to offer everything but I still lack in some areas. Please look forward to it!"

But for some she looked downwards on her body and indifferently replied.

Uumu, girl's talk is unintelligible to me.

I gave up on understanding and I don't know the reason but I'm glad that the girls at anyrate have formed an emotional bond between themselves.

"Well, I'm glad that you're getting along. Ааh, that's right since everything well let's celebrate. Have you girls heard of something called Soda?"

The girls tilted their heads to my question.

Fumu, it seems they don't know about it.

In this world carbonated drinks still haven't spread.

"It's a really delicious drink and easy to be made. It's about time so I'll make it"

"Delicious juice!? *slurp*…."

"Lucichan, don't drool! But, I understand you! It is Masatsugu-sama's handmade juice! Surely it's delicious so much your cheeks fall!"

"Ehehehe~ All of the things Masatsugu-san created are delicious~ I'm looking forward to it~"

"First class chefs are really pale. I want to drink that thing called Soda really soon!"

Everyone except Clarissa gave their opinions.

"Oi, oi calm down. My skill is nothing noteworthy."

I shook my head and said that.

"Un, Master should be more self-aware of his own abilities."

"There wasn't any chef even in the elf country that can cook more delicious food than Masatsugu-sama."

"That's right~ I've lived for tens of thousands of years and I think that a person like Masatsugu-san won't appear once more."

"Once my country is revived please teach the chefs your recipes there, Masatsugu-dono!"

But the girls objected to it.

Sigh. Concerning me I'm satisfied if the girls are happy.

That's why whether I am professional rank or not doesn't matter and I don't have interest in it.

"More than, shall we start immediately making it?"

With that reason I changed the topic of the talk.

"Is Masatsugu-dono's cooking that good?"

Clarissa looking at our conversation poised her question.

"That is right, Clarisschan! Once you taste the deliciousness of Master's cooking you will never be able to go back to normal food!"

"It's scary that it isn't an exaggeration. Even imperial meals will end up unsatisfactory."

"Being together is just happiness~ I'm being able to eat the most delicious food in the world~ Truly a blessing more than this Spirit Deity deserves~ I'm glad I have lived for so long.~"

"Masatsugu-dono is multi-talented, but his cooking talent stands above the rest."

Before I could object immediately the girls were faster than me and gave their affirmations.

"Is that so?"

Clarissa looked at me with a gaze full of admiration.

Haa, good grief.

To me it it's fine either way. Let us continue with the cooking promptly.

"Now, I'll name the ingredients, can you get them?"

With that, I forcibly changed the topic to making the carbonated drink.

As expected they changed to postures of listening when I say it so.

"The first thing is what we used recently in making the soap and the hot-cake. What is it?"

It was long-waited for me so I gave them a hint in the formality of a quiz.

"Yes! Yes!"

"I understand!"

Such lively voices came.

Fumufumu, it seems everyone remembers it. I'm amazed.

"Then, Laara! Please tell me the answer."

"Yes! The answer is baking soda!"

She answered to me calling her.

"Ooh, correct. Amazing that you remember it."

I said so and pet her head.

"MMasatsugu-dono…"

For some reason her cheeks were red and her usually slant-eyes were now looking drowsy.

Oops, I've treated her a bit too much of a child in front of everyone.

It seems I made her very bashful.

I reflected so I removed my hand.

But she grabbed the hand which was separating from her with a terrifying power.

"Seperating is bad!"

With a sad expression she was leading my hand to the top of her head.

Un, it was supposed to be making you bashful, what's happening?

I cocked my head in doubt and continued petting the girl who was blushing.

Now, she finally released me after accepting her prolongation request and continued asking the girls this time about the 2nd item.

But the girls state was now very different.

"The next ingredient will be guessed by me!"

"No, Lucichan. I cannot afford to lose to you this time!"

"Shii also challenges this as a deity!"

"I too have to show the pride of a dwarf!"

For some reason they were strangely energetic.

I could only cock my head in doubt.
