Chapter 130

「Oh my, what might this be?」

「I have never seen something like this before」

「But, it looks really delicious~」

Today, there’s a tea party organized by Rebeccsan in the Ruven House.

The partic.i.p.ants of the tea party are naturally people of the n.o.bility. Madams of various ages and young ladies slightly younger than me.

It’s a women’s party, so the only men partic.i.p.ating are children. And yet, here I am partic.i.p.ating and extremely uncomfortable. I’m sorry, but there is a reason for this.

「This you see, was made by Tak.u.mi-san. He’s an adventurer our House is a guardian of, but his cooking is top-grade. Now then, all of them are exquisite. Please, try them by all means」

As requested by Rebeccsan, I came up with the menu today and made it with the chefs of the Ruven House.

Various mouth-sized sandwiches with jam, eggs, tuna and more.

Pound cakes made from a mix of b.u.t.ter, sugar, eggs and flour. The expanding itself was poor because of no baking powder, but it was made with a plenty of nuts and dried fruit, so it was pa.s.sable.

I also improved the tasteless cookie recipe of this world, made them into small containers, and tried to make fruit tarts by filling them with custards cream and fruits.

Of course, we also made the improved cookies and the chefs prepared various ice creams by trial and error.

「My! Rebeccsama, it’s really delicious~」

「Truly」

「Each of

them are wonderful~」

The things we prepared were seemed to be well-received in general.

「Isn’t that right? Her Majesty and Her Highness the Crown Princess also praised them highly~」

「My, is that so?」

「But, with these articles, I can understand」

As Rebeccsan said, today’s articles were tasted by Grace-sama and Aurorsama.

While coming up with the menu for today, they suddenly appeared incognito in the Ruven House, and sampled the food. I was really fl.u.s.tered at that time.

I was hesitating to let them sample the food which I made as an experiment, but Grace-sama and Aurorsama wanted to try it no matter what, so I had no other choice.

Well, they received it deliciously even though there was still a plenty of room for improvement.

「Also, Tak.u.mi-san was kind enough to give a permission to convey all things necessary for the sweets you see today to those interested」

While the partic.i.p.ants ate, Rebeccsan continued talking.

「My, is that true!?」

「I am so happy to hear that~ I would definitely like to ask for them!」

「Of course, I would like to take them home as well!」

Thereupon, the madams unanimously desired the recipes.

Winning the madams like this and building up their friendship with me. That was the purpose of today’s tea party.

To begin with, a great number of letters have apparently arrived at the Ruven House from people that intended to get close to me after the audience with His Majesty.

It was

was possible to decline and not get in contact with those people, but Matthias-san and Rebeccsan told me that rather than poorly hiding, it would be better to build up a friendship with them.

Thus, today’s tea party was carried out as we are starting by winning over the women with sweets. Well, the people that are here today are people whom Rebeccsan has a good relationship with, so I expected there wouldn’t be any problems. It appears we were able to grasp their hearts.

「U, umm……」

「Is something the matter?」

As the second half of the tea party approached and the inquiries about sweets came to an end, a girl of around thirteen or fourteen years of age called out to me.

「My name is Lilika Stanval」

「Thank you for your politeness. I am sorry for my late introductions, I am called Tak.u.mi. So, what is the matter?」

「I wanted to thank you, Tak.u.mi-sama」

「Thank me?」

I don’t know any n.o.ble young ladies. Therefore, this should be our first meeting.

N~ I don’t recall ever hearing a house name Stanval either. Someone like her wants to thank me?

「Yes! Thank you very much for giving me a Pastel Rabbit. I have always wanted to keep one」

「Ah!」

She’s one of the people who received the Pastel Rabbits from Matthias-san.

「My! Liliksama got a Pastel Rabbit? Me too!」
