While saying that, Ma-kun brought me the milk can well. . . I would like to thank Zezgard-san.

“Thank you very much, even though it’s heavy.”

“It’s not that heavy.”

At my words, Zezgard-san said no and looked into the pot.

There are well-fried bacon and onions. Unlike the beginning, the flour has lost it’s fluff. It was mixed with oils and fats and became smooth.

“Are you going to put milk in this?”

“Yes. If you add milk to well-baked flour, you can make a thick sauce.”

“. . . Is it like a stew?”

“That’s right. This time, I want to make it thicker than stew.”

Yes, what I’m making now is a white sauce thicker than stew.

It’s white sauce!

White sauce is made by stir-frying butter and flour, adding milk, and mixing with a whisk, but this time I saved a little effort and stir-fried the ingredients together to prevent failure.

Stir-frying it with the ingredients makes it less likely to become lumpy.

Furthermore, if the flour is fried thoroughly, the richness will increase and it won’t have a powdery taste after completion.

However, if you try to fry the flour thoroughly, it can easily burn and you may not get a pure white sauce, so you need to be careful. . .

This time, Ryleigh-kun adjusted the heat and Hurst-san mixed it well, so it was fried well, but it wasn’t burnt.

“Can I put in all the milk?”

“Yes, it’s okay to put everything in.”

When I smiled at the well-made contents of the pot, Zezgard-san confirmed the work.

So when I nodded to his words, Zezgard-san tilted the milk can and poured it into the pot.

When the milk touched the hot pot, it made a sizzling sound once, and then quietly filled the pot.

“Ryleigh-kun, can you raise the heat until the milk boils?”

“Yes!”

Hurst-san, the flour tends to clump on the surface of the pot, so please mix the whole thing well.”

“Yes.”

I left the work after adding the milk to Ryleigh-kun and Hurst-san.

Then, when they raised the heat and mixed the contents, the milk made a noise.

In addition, it got thicker and thicker. . .

“Shina-sama, how is it?”

“Yes, it feels really good. . . !”

White milk was scooped up with a wooden spatula while it was steaming.

The fragrant aroma of well-fried bacon and plenty of sweet-looking onions gave off a strong presence in the white sauce.

After that, season it with salt, and the ingredients are complete!

“I’m going to put these ingredients in the bowl that Zezgard-san cut earlier.”

“Ah? Are you going to put this in that bread?”

“Yes. When you mix this with bread, it soaks into the air bubbles in the bread, but when you eat it, it becomes soft and overflows.”

“. . . That sounds delicious.”

When I was answering Zezgard-san’s question, Hurst-san’s light blue eyes glittered at my words.

I smiled back at those eyes and asked Ryleigh-kun, who was next to me, to put out the fire.

“The ingredients are now complete, but I have a request for Hurst-san and Ryleigh-kun next.”

Yes. The ingredients have been completed, but this is not the end yet.

After putting it in the bread, there is another thing to work on!

“I want Ryleigh-kun to warm up the oven. Because I want to bake bread with ingredients from now on.”

“Yeah, leave it to me!”

In response to my request, Ryleigh-kun moved to a big oven and put firewood in it.

It should take some time to warm up the oven, but if I leave it to Ryleigh-kun, it should be fine.

So, Hurst-san and I moved away from the pot and over to the work desk where we cut the bacon and onions earlier.

“I want Hurst-san to shave the cheese.”

“Cheese?”

“Yes. I want you to make a lot of elongated things. . .”

There is a large round of cheese on the work desk, and while looking at it, I asked Hurst-san.

The size indicated by my thumb and index finger is 3 cm in length and 5 mm wide. The thickness is thinner.

Yes. I want him to make shredded cheese.

“I was wondering if there was a tool for shaving cheese, but I wondered if Hurst-san could do it with his skill.”

“Yes. It’s possible.”

Hurst-san nodded strongly at my words and extended his hand to the cheese. Then the cheese shined. . .

“Amazing! In not time. . .!”

As expected, Hurst-san.

There is cheese in the specified shape.

Thin strips of cheese would be great on pizza.

“Shina-san! The oven is warm!”

“Amazing! In no time. . . !”

As expected of Ryleigh-kun.

To instantly warm up the oven that should take time.

“Hurst-san’s skills and Ryleigh-kun’s skills are the strongest. . .”

What great skills. . .

I admire the amazing skills of the two.

Then, Hurst-san and Ryleigh-kun looked at each other. . .

“If Shina-san says so, I think I’ll like this skill.”

“That’s right.”

Their eyes became soft and narrow.

Then, the two who were making eye contact shifted their gazes to me.

Both light blue eyes and young leaf-colored eyes have a thick and sweet color. . .

I was kind of embarrassed by that, so I cleared my throat and asked everyone to do the final work.

“Then I’ll put the sauce on the bread, so I want you to put some shredded cheese on top of it.”

“Yes!”

“Can Hurst-san and Zezgard-san arrange the items prepared my me and Ryleigh-kun on the iron plate and put them in the oven?”

“Yes.”

“Understood.”

Everyone immediately responded to my words, and each of them started working on it.

Hurst-san brought the iron plate and arranged the bread prepared by Zezgard-san.

And Zezgard-san brought the iron plate to me.

In the bread bowls there is dice-shaped bread, just as I requested.

I scooped the white sauce over it and poured it on.

“. . . Amazing. It looks delicious.”

One in each hand. Zezgard-san, who has a total of two iron plates, looked at the work and made a sound in his throat.

So, I looked up at Zezgard-san while smiling.

“There’s still a long way to go. If you bake it with cheese, it’s even more amazing.”

Yes! The potential is high.

“Ah, even so, isn’t it dangerous to hold the iron plate with one hand? There are six loaves of bread on it, so if you put sauce on it like this, it will be quite heavy. . .”

“It’s not that heavy.”

He deftly holds the iron plates in each hand, but it must be really heavy.

However, Zezgard-san said it wasn’t, and hurried me to work.

Then, when all the bread was filled with sauce, it should have been quite heavy, but Zezgard-san doesn’t look particularly spicy, and he lightly holds the two heavy plates.

Then, he walked over to Ryleigh-kun to put cheese on it.

Looking at that reliable back, my heart felt fluffy. . .

“Fufun Ru-”

“I’m not Fufun Rush!!”

“Well-”

“I’m not Ma-kun!!”

Zezgard has gotten another strange nickname from Shina. She really likes giving people nicknames. I wonder why she hasn’t given Ryleigh one yet. Zezgard, Hurst, Thruster, Ash, and the palace guards all have them. . . Who will fall victim to Shina’s strange nicknames next? And I think she forgot one very important thing when she was talking about amazing and strong skills. . . Her skill is quite literally the most secure safe room to ever exist. With a practically endless supply of food and water.
