. . .Pork cutlet.

After instructing everyone to work and looking around for a bit, Shizuku-chan and I moved to the kitchen.

Then, I move to the Liquid crystal display panel and exchange points for what we need!

“I want Shizuku-chan to bring the ingredients with me.”

“Is it like when you made hot spring eggs yesterday?”

“Yeah, eggs today, just like yesterday. Also, I wanted to bring some cabbage.”

Yes. Shredded cabbage for tonkatsu!

When I answered with a smile, Shizuku-chan also smiled softly.

“Cabbage is important, isn’t it?”

“Yeah. Cabbage is important.”

Besides, leafy vegetables don’t grow much in the land where the Northern Knights are located, so they don’t have many opportunities to eat raw leafy vegetables.

Since it’s a big deal, I want to eat a lot.

I operated the liquid crystal to get 4 cabbages. After that, I exchanged the eggs for points.

As usual, white light shines and cabbage and eggs appear on the cooking table. Thankfully it’s in a basket. . .

“Thank you as always. . . . .”

Rub. Rub the kitchen.

I stroked the kitchen about 8 times and share the things on the countertop with Shizuku-chan.

I got Shizuku-chan to bring the eggs, and I got the cabbage.

It’s quite heavy with 4 cabbages. Because it is tightly wrapped.

I can feel the quality of the cabbage from it’s weight and smile again.

“Well then, let’s go back. . . . [It’s done]”

I held hands with Shizuku-chan and returned to the kitchen.

Then Hurst-san, who seemed to have finished cutting the meat, came over right away.

“Shina-sama, I’ll take that one.”

Saying that, he took the heavy cabbage from me and carried it to the wooden desk.

“Shizuku-chan, are the eggs okay?”

“Yes. This is what Shina-san asked me to do, so I will carry it.”

“Yeah. Then please.”

“Yes!”

I thought about accepting the eggs from Shizuku-chan because I was at a loss for what to do, but Shizuku-chan nodded that she was fine.

I could feel Shizuku-chan’s serious personality from the way she spoke, and I couldn’t help but narrow my eyes.

So I let it go! When I smiled, Shizuku-chan laughed happily.

Then, after placing the cabbage and eggs on the empty wooden desk, move on to the next task!

“Hurst-san, can I ask you to carry something else?”

“Yes, of course.”

Shizuku-chan and I have something that seems impossible to carry.

When I showed it to Hurst-san, he immediately nodded.

I asked him to carry the big can of milk I saw when I made bread gratin.

It’s the one that Fufun Rush brings, but what’s in it today isn’t milk.

I had the milk can moved to the desk where Ryleigh-kun and Zezgard-san were working.

“Could you please tilt it a little for me?”

“Understood.”

I pick up the ladle and ask Hurst-san to tilt the milk can.

Then, put the ladle into the spout, and what comes out it. . .

“Is this yogurt?”

“Yes!”

Shizuku-chan who was curiously watching the work, raised her voice saying, ‘Ah!’.

Ryleigh-kun and Zezgard-san cut the meat and poured them into what was lined up in a large metal pan.

“There’s yogurt here too.”

“Yeah. Dairy farming seems to be popular around here, so dairy products aren’t a problem. It looks like they also make yogurt.”

There was yogurt along with milk and cheese.

Since there is plenty to use, I will use yogurt for preparation this time.

Then Zezgard-san, who was working on the meat cutting frowned.

“Ah? Why are you putting it on pork?”

“Yogurt tenderizes the meat.”

Yogurt is natural, but it is acidic with plenty of lactic acid bacteria.

Somehow there are a lot of things in it, and the meat becomes juicy.

Meat pickled in yogurt.

“. . . I have no idea what you want to make.”

“But I know it’s definitely delicious because it’s made by Shina-san!”

Zezgard-san whispered softly to me as I switched from the ladle to the spoon and spread the yogurt over the surface of the meat.

Well, if you think about yogurt-flavored meat, it might be hard to imagine.

But Ryleigh-kun said that there was no problem at all with a bright smile.

“I’ll take this yogurt after a while, so it’s not like it’s going to taste like yogurt. . . Look forward to it.”

I’m sure I’ll be able to create something delicious that neither Zezgard-san nor Ryleigh-kun can imagine.

When I smiled, Hurst-san’s light blue eyes sparkled.

“It’s fun.”

When I look into those eyes, my chest always feels soft and warm. . .

“You look weird.”

Zezgard-san pointed it out when I stretched my out to the side because it seemed like my smile would leak out on it’s own.

I’m aware of it, so I don’t object to it, just clear my throat.

And then, I turn my gaze to Ryleigh-kun.

“Then, is it okay for Ryleigh-kun to continue cutting the muscles?”

“Yes!”

When I asked him to continue working, Ryleigh-kun said, ‘Leave it to me!’ and nodded brightly.

Ryleigh-kun and Zezgard-san cut about 30 slices of pork.

It’s just a little bit more, so the rest should be fine with just Ryleigh-kun.

So, I ask Zezgard-san to do something different.

“Is it okay if Zezgard-san replaces Hurst-san and supports the can of yogurt?”

“. . . Oh.”

“Shizuku-chan, can you pour this yogurt on it.”

“Yes.”

Right now, I entrust the work that Hurst-san is doing to Zezgard-san, and my work to Shizuku-chan.

It’s not a particularly difficult task, and I can’t imagine Zezgard-san and Shizuku-chan having a fun conversation, but since Zezgard-san thinks of Shizuku-chan like a younger sister (self-proclaimed), it shouldn’t be dangerous. . .

Other than me, Shizuku-chan seems to be the most open to Ryleigh-kun, so it’s safe if Ryleigh-kun is nearby.

“Then please come here. Shizuku-chan, if you have any troubles again, please call for me.”

“Saint-sama, I’m here, so if you’re scared of Zez-san or if you don’t like it, tell me right away!”

“. . . I won’t do anything you don’t like.”

When each of us called out to Shizuku-chan, Shizuku-chan nodded yes.

And she started working right away.

Ryleigh-kun arranged the pork on a metal tray and handed it over to Shizuku-chan.

There were 5 pieces of meat in a single vat, and Zez-san tilted the heavy milk can to make it easier to pour out the yogurt, while Shizuku-chan scooped it up with a ladle and poured it over the pork.

“Yeah. It looks okay.”

“Yes, Shina-san showed it to me, so it looks like it will work just like that.”

“It’s perfect!”

Shizuku-chan smiles softly, and Ryleigh-kun raises his voice brightly.

. . . Zezgard-san and Shizuku-chan didn’t talk at all, but I guess that’s fine. Because Ma-kun is shy. Yes. I understand, Ma-kun.

“. . . Those eyes. I know.”

Ma-kun. . . . . Zezgard-san glares at me like that.

I nodded gently and returned it.

And then, I called out to Hurst-san.

“I would like to ask Hurst-san to do something different.”

“Yes.”

“I apologize for making you move so many times, but the cabbage we were talking about earlier. . .

I said goodbye to the three and went back to Cabbage.

Working there. . .

“I want to make shredded cabbage.”

“I see. This cabbage looks fresh and can be eaten raw.”

“Yes. It’s indispensable for this dish.”

Shredding 4 heads of cabbage would be a little troublesome.

It’s a division of work in anticipation of Hurst-san’s knife skills, but the amount of work is also large.

So, when I was thinking that I was sorry, Hurst-san nodded as soon as he understood.

“We don’t have many opportunities to eat raw leafy vegetables, so I think the members will be happy. If it’s about this much, I think it will be gone soon.”

Saying that, he immediately put the knife into the cabbage. . .

“. . . Shreds are made at such a speed.”

Quick. Too fast. Shredding speed enough to cause a buzz when you post a video.

He easily cut the amount by hand that will take more time even if I use a slicer. . . I wonder what it is, it feels like this one cabbage is shredded with feeling. . .

Hurst-san, you definitely have skills. A meat slicer (electric) and a vegetable slicer (cooking utensils). There is no doubt.

“If I leave it to Hurst-san, I will be surprised because you can do anything.”

“I’m in front of Shina-sama right now, so maybe I’m excited.”

“Eh”

Very expressionless.

He’s shredding at a god-like speed without moving an eyebrow.

Were you excited?

“I want to show my good side in front of a nice woman.”

“. . .ugh. . .!?”

Wait a second! Weird voice, strange voice. . .!!

My heart began to act strangely at the sudden words, and before I knew it, my voice came out, but. . .!

Looking at me like that, his light blue eyes narrowed gently. . .

“I’m happy to be relied on by Shina-sama.”

Yes, it came. It came. It’s been a long time since I’ve been frozen.

Somehow, I couldn’t move at all.

. . . A straight low and calm voice.

. . . The light blue eyes are a little hot.

I can’t help it anymore. That’s impossible.

“. . . I’m just. . . over there. . . I’m going. . .”

I move my frozen body and desperately leave Hurst-san.

I’m not sure where I’m going. . .

Ah yes. Let’s go to everyone in the first group. Let’s go see if they can make bread crumbs properly. . .

“Yes. Let’s keep working.”

Hurst-san looked at me and smiled softly.

My chest has been going crazy for a long time. . .

“. . . Scary. I don’t remember the second half. Scary.”

. . . When I noticed, the tonkatsu was ready.

. . . .What could it be. I don’t even know what it is.

After soaking in yogurt, wipe it off and season with salt. In addition, the bread crumbs were mixed with dried herbs to enhance the flavor. It is then coated with flour, egg and bread crumbs and deep-fried in lard at a low temperature until golden brown.

Plenty of juicy shredded cabbage next to the tonkatsu. When you put it in your mouth, it is thin and evenly sized, and when you put it in your mouth, you can feel the sweetness of the cabbage.

The sauce was made in the kitchen with a mixture of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and roasted sesame seeds.

. . . I should have made it. Perhaps.

If there is something delicious in front of me, I must have asked them to do the work, and I must have done some work myself.

. . . But I can’t be sure that I did it.

Scary.

“Wow, it looks delicious!”

“That pig turned into this!”

“It’s good. The smell is already good!”

“Hurry up and eat!!!”

Everyone in the knights gathered in the dining room, seeing the perfect tonkatsu they said, ‘Hurry up! Quickly!’, and waited for that time.

When I went up to the stage to explain the meal, just like I did with the bread gratin, I finally came to my senses. In other words, I forgot myself until now.

“What I made is tonkatsu.”

Whether it should be dipped in sauce or eaten as is, compatibility with cabbage, etc.

I have a lot to say.

But I also forgot myself, so I don’t feel like I can explain it well, and I won’t be able to hear everyone.

That’s why. . .!

“No explanation!”

. . .Black pork loin cutlet.

“Let’s go!”

I wonder when she will finally realize that she likes Hurst-san. She blacked out because he said nice things and smiled at her. If anyone else does that, she just smiles back like a teacher looking at cute kids.
