Chapter 217: Plans for the Second Night
After finishing dinner Sakura and I relaxed out on some seats on the beach.
「That sea cucumber eel was surprisingly delicious…」
「That’s true, it wasn’t bony either.」
The snake trepang had a large body, but had very few bones. It was to the degree that you could barely believe it could support its own body.
…….though it looked like that even before being processed.
Be that as it may, after cooking it well it gave off the impression of a large eel. We had no problems eating it.
「Well it’s all thanks to your skill that it ended up so tasty.」
「No no, it was my first time challenging such a large eel dish. I’m just glad I was able to satisfy your expectations.」
It was so fragrantly grilled that Dianeia and Athena, who were holding back because of its appearance, couldn’t help but try it.
What was amazing was that there wasn’t a fishy smell or taste. It was just satisfying and delicious.
It made your body feel as if it was being energized just by eating a piece.
Plus there was quite a lot of it. Even when we ate it and shared some with the Knights and Shining Heads.
「Such high class cooking! I’m so grateful to eat it during training!」
「Boss’s kindness and the strong ingredients are flowing through me…..!」
They said such things happily.
All in all, catching this thing ended up well.
「In a way this was Athena’s achievement.」
「Yes, however she seemed to be a little down a while ago. But she cheered up as she ate.」
「Yeah she said something like….{at times like this eat and forget! Daichi-oniisan I’m going to overeat today!}」
She was truly a high-tension kid.
She was probably one who recovered magic through eating, so it suited her.
「Well as long as she’s lively…..I think I’ll take a little walk and find a place to fish…what about you Sakura?」
「I’ll prepare you a late-night snack again. Plus Athena-chan asked me to teach her to cook.」
「Oh, is that so? Then I’ll leave it to you.」
「Yes please do.」
And so Sakura headed towards the kitchens.
I stood up to take a walk to help my digestion when…
「Ah, good. You’re still, here.」
Hesty arrived.
「Oh Hesty. What’s up?」
「n~, Karen told me she wanted to, talk to us. I thought, if you had time, if you could come with, us.」
「That’s right Daichi!」
Karen appeared suddenly and followed up Hesty’s words.
For having just eaten she was quite energetic.
「I think a peaceful night like this is perfect for a chat! I’d like to invite you.」
A chat huh? Well I was going for a little walk so having a chat while I do it should be fine.
「What kind of chat?」
「Thanks for helping Princess Athena, the Four Spirits, sending them back, and other things. I was thinking to just go over them one after another.」
I see. Sounds like it’ll take a while.
「In that case do you mind if we walk and talk?」
「I don’t mind.」
「I’m, fine with it, too.」
「Ok then let’s go.」
And so Hesty, Karen, and I went on our nighttime chat along the beach.
