Chapter 296

(296) Pancake

Translator: Tseirp

My Jeweller examinations pa.s.sing celebration was over .

The turtle rice soup was really delicious .

“Right, I’ll make something as thanks . ”

I said and asked everyone to wait for a while as I prepared the ingredients in the log house .

After preparing flour, sugar, milk, b.u.t.ter, and egg, I started cooking .

“Master, I will help with making the meringue . ”

“Ah, thanks . ”

Sheena No . 3 made meringue from the egg white .

I imagined and would tolerate a chaotic cooking method by transforming her hand into a whisk but that Sheena No . 3 actually poured all the egg white into her mouth and started shaking her head at a high speed .

“What in blazes are you doing?”

“Hnennnn”

She had her mouth shut so I couldn’t tell what she was trying to say at all but Sheena No . 3 spat out perfectly made meringue from her mouth .

Whisking in her mouth … well, the inside of her mouth was a machine as well and she washed herself every day so it was probably clean .

… I hope n.o.body saw it?

I guess I’ll use it after applying Clean .

Then, I mixed the remaining ingredients in appropriate amounts .

Then, I brought the power generator and a hot plate to everyone .

“Ichinojo-sama, what is this?”

“This is a tool to heat the metal plate ― Oil Create . ”

I applied oil on the hot plate with Oil Create and poured the dough I made .

“Is this bread?”

“Similar but different . It’s pancake . ”

I answered Rarael’s question as I made pancakes to treat them .

“! It’s so tasty! It’s delicious, Ichinojo-sama . ”

Rarael ate following Pionia and Neete and she commented sincerely .

“I see . They are made entirely from ingredients from My World so I’ll teach you girls the way to make it next time . It’s very simple after all . ”

I didn’t use baking powder because I didn’t know how to make baking powder from what I could gather in My World .

Although I might be able to if I carefully read through the cooking book that Miri brought from j.a.pan .

“Such a delicious item can be made easily?”

Yeah, it’s easy … ? .

But it would take a large number of eggs to make for the number of people we have and the chickens we have now would probably be insufficient .

Making b.u.t.ter from Sugyu milk would be laborious too .

“Sorry, preparing the ingredients might be difficult . ”

“No, it isn’t too much trouble if it can be made with the ingredients from this world . We hope that we can let Ichinojo-sama taste the pancake we make one day . ”

“Thanks . ”

I thanked them and made a large number of pancakes for them .

Regardless of whether they are Dark-Elves or Hume, it seemed that girls always will love pancakes .

Incidentally, I only recalled that I swapped my Outdoor Chef job to Jeweller after I finished making pancakes for everyone .

Thus, the turtle stew party meant to celebrate my pa.s.sing ended . There were a few pancakes left but there weren’t many and I left them with Pionia so it won’t turn into a quarrel .

Given her interest in food, she would probably deal with it secretly .

I volunteered to wash the dishes as well . The Dark-Elves said that they would do it but I could finish in an instant with Clean so I did it in the end . Neete helped to clean up . Because she still had to serve punishment for the hug pillow case .

Incidentally, she was wearing the maid uniform which was the first attire she wore after she was born .

She normally wore maid attire for everyday wear but this was probably her most proper use of her attire so far .

As we were about to finish cleaning up, Pionia came back after burying the rubbish in the fields .

“Master, my task is complete . ”

“Good work . Clean . ”

She didn’t look dirty at a glance but I cleaned her entire body with Clean .

Pionia bowed to me with her expressionless face .

Although they have the same expressionless face, I could tell when Haru was happy from her swinging tail but I truly didn’t know what Pionia was thinking .

“May I borrow Neete for a while?”

“Hn? Are there any other tasks?”

“Affirmative . To attend to our visitor . ”

“Visitor? Who?”

“G.o.ddess Minerva has come to visit . ”

“Minerva-sama!?”

I left the dishes and cleaned Neete and my body before heading to where Minerva-sama was .

A long black-haired beautiful woman was pouring something into a washbasin .

“Waaa! Minerva-sama, stop stop! What are you planning to do?”

” … Do you know there will be poisonous gas produced when you mix two types of detergents? I wonder if I can die comfortably with that . ”

Minerva-sama seemed to have taken detergent from my item box on her own accord and poured two types of detergents into the washbasin .

But …

“Erm, I don’t think any poisonous gas will be produced if you mix the same type of detergent . ”

I wasn’t very sure but I believe poisonous gas is only produced when you mix with chlorinated bleach .

And either way, even if poisonous gas is produced, we were outdoors so it wouldn’t be dangerous .

Perhaps she read my mind (G.o.ddess-samas can really read minds), Minerva-sama smoothly stopped doing what she was doing .

“I guess I was mistaken . ”

No, you weren’t mistaken .

She was the G.o.ddess of Medicine after all .

“Ara? I am a failure as the G.o.ddess of Medicine . ”

… I knew they could read minds . Please stop reading my mind .

“Even in professional baseball, there are fourth batters who don’t get a home run at all, right? It is the same . ”

Please don’t use that example . There are too many baseball players who I can think fit that description .

“Minerva-sama, we have prepared tea and sweets over there . Please ―”

Pionia said and gestured to the terrace beside the log house which she prepared without me noticing ― seriously when did she prepare that!? It wasn’t there this morning! All right, I led Minerva-sama over .

Pancake was served with the tea .

“It’s tasty … I’m not allowed to make my own food so I can only have others cook for me like this . ”

I thought to myself that it was as I expect from Minerva-sama to not be allowed to make food instead of not being able to make food .

Neete silently poured the tea .

I was just thinking that she was doing work that suited her attire but now she updated my impression in just a few minutes .

“Did Pionia-chan make this pancake?”

“Negative . This pancake was made by Master . ”

“Eh? Is that so, Suke-kun?”

“Suke-kun!? Eh? Ah, yes . ”

That was the first time I was called Suke-kun .

“The curry was good, the pancake is good too, Suke-kun likes cooking? Do you want to become my private chef?”

“I respectfully decline . ”

I would be troubled if she tries to commit suicide every time she fails her cooking — I would normally be honored to do so but I declined her invitation .
