Chapter 218

Break

After seeing the children off, I immediately got to work.

"Now then, let's do this."

The ingredients… meat, let's see~ maybe I should use bird meat and make a chicken sandwich?

A simple grilled one seasoned with salt, sandwiched between lettuce and mayonnaise. Ah~… but wouldn't the taste of salt be difficult to discern if I use mayonnaise? But, I would prefer using mayonnaise~

All right, let's think about this later!

"A type of bird meat, let's see…"

Oh! We got plenty of c.o.c.katrice meat in a dungeon!

"Oh, what a nice smell."

Rudolph-san approached as I started grilling the meat.

"Tak.u.mi, what kind of meat is that?"

"Err… It's a c.o.c.katrice."

"……"

For a moment, I was worried about what to say, but when I told Rudolph-san what kind of meat it was, he sunk into silence. Wasn't c.o.c.katrice a B-ranked monster? Is this too much?

I have usually talked with the Ruven family about what kind of meat I was going to use, but I remember hearing that the n.o.bility often eat the meat of B-ranked monsters.

"You seemed to be hesitating to speak up, so you are aware that it's not meat you would usually use, right?"

"Do ranked adventurers not eat the meat of B-ranked monsters often?"

"Only sometimes when I splurge, but I rarely get to eat it."

"… Is that so?"

Unlike the n.o.bility, adventurers bring down the monsters themselves, so I thought that it wouldn't be so unusual for the top cla.s.s adventurers to eat B-ranked monster's meat often… it seems that I was wrong.

"Ah, yeah, there's no problem for you guys to eat good quality meat. Just be aware that it's not the usual thing to do."

"… Roger that."

It means that it would be better to use C-ranked meat the next time we eat in front of other people!

"Isn't it good already?"

"Indeed, it's grilled."

The meat was grilled, so I finished my work.

I cut a long white bread, placed lettuce, the grilled meat, and mayonnaise in-between.

"Rudolph-san, could you call Morgan-san over?"

"Yeah, got it."

"Allen, Elena, come here. The food is done, so let's take a break."

""Yess~""

First, I applied Washing on the children who ran over immediately after I called them.

"Take off your gloves for a little bit. Are your palms hurting?"

""It's fine?""

They kept on swinging their pickaxes for a while, so I had the children take off their gloves to check whether they got any blisters or if their skin got peeled.

"Seems there really are no problems."

""Yea, no problems!""

"Oi, oi, their soft hands didn't even turn red?"

"Indeed. Surprisingly, there seems to be no change."

It's no wonder Rudolph-san was surprised. Despite working so hard, the two's hands were soft as ever. The feeling their hands give off when touched is superb.

"Well, their bodies are strong from the start, after all. Rather than that, why don't we eat before it gets cold? Huh? Rudolph-san, where is Morgan-san?"

Just when I thought to start eating, Rudolph-san returned, but Morgan-san was nowhere to be seen.

"Old man is over there. I called him, but it seems that my voice didn't reach him."

"Your voice didn't reach him, you say… is he so focused? Is he always like that when he works? Wouldn't it be dangerous if some kind of emergency situation occurred?"

"This should be the first time it happened in the mines? Well… he's on fire today, so it can't be helped."

Morgan-san looked very happy when he dug out Mithril, after all~ He might be trying to mine as much as he can.

"… N? Rudolph-san, did you say 'in the mines' just now?"
