"Ray, how about this!

A soup dish is placed on the table, making the sound of dong,.

Inside that plate are soup and noodles.

... Yes, we should have been busy having a New Year's party, but Georgima was still studying ramen.

Although not entirely, Ray can only admire Georgima's enthusiasm for cooking, which nevertheless also did as much research on ramen as possible.

Not to mention because this is how the ramen came out until I was able to taste it.

The soup has the aroma of fish soy, which stimulates the appetite.

(What about ramen with fish soy, classified? It's about fish soy, so I figured you could use soy sauce ramen? No, but the ramen I used snuggly wasn't soy sauce ramen, it was named snuggly ramen)

In the meantime, I decided that ramen is ramen, and I turn my gaze to the soup dish again.

A soup dish made a little deeper than normal would be just right for adding ramen.

Only soup and noodles are in the soup dish.

If it's the original ramen, there are a number of toppings on here like boiled eggs, chashu, memma, seaweed and chopped onions, but I guess there's no toppings for that hand because what matters this time is the noodles.

Take the soup dish in front of you and Ray sips the soup first.

Bowl...... No, it's not strange to be told that mouthing directly on a soup dish is rude.

But since it's a corner, that's how Ray wanted to drink it.

I don't know if I can use a spoon to drink it, but the biggest reason for this was that it still seemed more delicious.

The first thing that spread in my mouth was the taste of the fish until it was thick.

I've had soups made by Georgima with fish soy before, but now a bite tasted... different from what I should even call depth.

"Delicious."

Georgima and her disciples all smile satisfactorily at that word of Ray, who was whined only one word.

New Year's party or the solace party of the servants that takes place the day before that.

I also made the dishes I serve to them without ever losing my hand, and while I was at it, I didn't do anything to stop the research hand about the ramen prototype either.

It would be natural to think that Ray should not miss as many chances as he can than he has been told he will return to the Guild in a few more days.

I drank a soup that could be described as such a hard crystal and made it say it was delicious, so I'd rather not be happy with it.

(Subtly different from the ramen soup I know... well, it's fish soy, not soy sauce, and that's irresistible. If we continue our research in the future, there will be room for more evolution. And soy sauce and miso...)

Imagine the coming ramen soup, then Ray rolls the dough with a fork.

I figured chopsticks would be better at times like this, while I carry that in my mouth.

Important in ramen - then in other countries it is often assumed to behave badly - the act of sipping cannot be done in a situation where you are eating ramen like pasta.

While I'm just a little sorry about that, Ray tastes the noodles.

(Similar, but not)

That was Ray's honest sentiment about eating noodles.

Compared to udon, it's obviously closer to the ramen noodles Ray knows.

I'm getting closer... Still, something like the taste and texture of the noodles somewhere was different from Ray's known ramen noodles.

"Delicious."

That's not a compliment or anything Ray said when he finished eating noodles. It was an honest, heartfelt feeling.

But still... No, that's why I should say, something bitter comes to mind in the look on Georgima's face I was watching it.

Because I understood from Ray's expression that I definitely said the noodles were delicious and at the same time read them differently than I thought they would be.

At the same time, that was enough to convince Georgima that Ray had eaten a dish called Ramen.

Otherwise, he would eat the dishes he just saw in the book and not taste delicious or unsavory, and he wouldn't get the feeling that it wasn't what he thought.

(Then why didn't you say that?... Well, it's about Ray. I'm pretty sure there's a reason. Given Ray's personality, it's unlikely that he's wearing it)

With some dissatisfaction, Georgima opens her mouth when there is more to be done now than that.

"Ray, be honest. That ramen noodle... it's not what you thought, is it?

To Georgima's words, his disciples, who were delighted and pleased with Ray's reaction, reveal their surprises.

Because if we tried other disciples, it just seemed like Ray was happy to eat their own ramen.

I guess this neighborhood is a big difference between a master and a disciple.

Stared at by Georgima, that's what turned his gaze on him, not allowing him to lie, Ray eventually turns back reluctantly but nodding.

"Right. Precisely what I read in the book and the texture of this noodle seemed different. It's just that I feel that way, maybe..."

"You're not."

Blocking Ray's words, Georgima affirms.

That's exactly what this would deserve an expression such as not being allowed to say whether or not, such a word.

"Falsification is good. I wonder if you felt that way when you made this noodle unlike ramen noodles. Let me just hear that."

"... no"

Georgima's Question...... No, Ray answers that in the end to a word you can call Ningro Stuff.

That's because I know a dish called ramen when I look into Georgima's eyes... and that's why I decided that I didn't just read it in a book, but that I had actually eaten it.

But that was only shared between Ray and Georgima, and the others around them had no idea.

The real meaning of such a conversation between the two of them would not have been known around them, but it was natural for Georgima to concentrate her consciousness on those who would make the dishes she made taste better than those around her.

"So? How exactly is it different?

"Right, like I said, teething... the feeling when I bit the noodles seemed different from the noodles I found out in the book. I think I've said this before, but the ramen noodles are supposed to be filled with ginseng. I don't know exactly what that is... what did you use this for?

"It's a liquid that concentrates a certain monster's body fluids. In a country quite far from here, they use this when making bread."

Ray opens his eyes unexpectedly to Georgima's words.

We were talking about ginseng, and I had no idea there was going to be monster fluids here.

"That's... for now, I don't think it's candlewater"

At least, Ray's knowledge of Kanju is usually Japanese… No, it cannot be obtained by imitating monster fluids other than those used on Earth.

It should be noted that Ray has nothing in particular to think about in terms of enriching the body fluids of monsters.

In the first place, it was Ray's perception that there was no particular problem, even though it was unclear whether the phrase "ingredient" - or "ingredient" - was correct in this case because he normally viewed the monster as food.

Even on Earth, bodily fluids are used in winds such as the use of animal blood for sausages and the use of oxime bodily fluids for healthy foods.

As much as that, Ray still remembered, though he didn't remember either.... I can't answer if you ask me exactly how I use animal blood for cooking, but it seems Ray.

More than that, I didn't think it was particularly odd as Ray when he told me he used monster fluids instead of kanji.

... Unfortunately, it turned out to be something slightly different from the noodles Ray knew.

"Really? But Ray doesn't know what kanji is, does he? Then maybe..."

"Uh... for now, I don't think it said I would use monster fluid"

Regardless of the fact that I was found to have had experience eating ramen, there is no reason to say that I came to this Elgin from another world, etc.

(No, well, given Georgima's character, if you hear I'm from another world, don't you feel anything in particular?... I'm more than likely going to tell you to teach different world dishes)

For cooking, if that's Georgima with what we should call obsession, I'd say that's pretty much definitive.

But even when Ray and Hate were in Japan, he wasn't very good at cooking.

That's why I can only explain a lot about dishes like udon, pizza, and meat meat, and it's actually the cook who studies and makes them.

If Georgima told me to tell you about Japanese… or Earth cuisine, I could tell you what kind of cuisine it is, but if you asked me how to make it, it would be just fine.

That is the proof that the ramen that Georgima is struggling with right now would be.

What kind of dish ramen is...... taste of soup, texture of noodles, topping utensils.

I could explain what they are, but this is how the Georgimas manage to make ramen, beyond actually knowing how to make them.

It's this with a single dish called ramen, so if it means other than that, teaching the dishes Ray knows... that's the only way I don't even know when I'll be able to go home to Gilm.

Or there's even the possibility that Georgima will come to Gilm with Ray.

Although such imitation would not have been possible by nature, given Georgima's obsession with cooking, it is by no means unlikely that he would have made it to such a means than being employed by the Duke of Keller.

No, instead of being low, there was a feeling in Ray that he would definitely come to Gilm.

"It's fluid, right?... then shouldn't I use this?

That being said, Georgima turns her gaze to the pot where the seasoning is located.

From such a trick, Ray also understands that it is the contents of the pot that concentrated the body fluids of the monsters used in place of the kanji water this time.

Georgima looked slightly unfortunate, but Ray hung up on it.

"Isn't it okay if I use that? The ramen I ate was definitely slightly different than I thought. But still, compared to udon or something, it's definitely getting closer to ramen noodles. Then I think it would be best to keep using that fluid and improve it...? More than not knowing who Kanju is."

Yes, it seemed best for Ray to keep looking for it while at the same time improving the noodles using the monster's body fluids as they were, beyond knowing exactly what Kanju was like.

It may not be the ramen that can be done as a result, because it doesn't use kanji water.

Still, it could be a dish close to ramen, or it could be more than ramen.

If so, it seemed to Ray that abandoning the opportunity would be unnecessary.

"Really? Well, this ramen... no, maybe I can't call it ramen, but I think it's going to taste pretty good."

To Ray's words, Georgima tells him that he doesn't seem to be full.

Usually a strong face, just a little... really just a little, but with a happy grin.

Originally, even if Ray, who has never eaten ramen, says so, it's a subtle thing to believe.

But Georgima understands that Ray actually had ramen.

That is why I was very convinced, not to express any particular dissatisfaction with Ray's words.

"Okay. I'm not going to stop looking for ginseng, but I'm going to let you study ramen with this seasoning."

Seasoning? and was Ray tilting his neck to that word for only a moment, but soon I understand that's about the monster's fluid.

I'm just a little surprised at Georgima calling her body fluids seasonings, but still Ray also seasons animal blood...... no, I'm not uncomfortable with using them as ingredients, so I guess that area comes from her way of thinking as a cook.

"Oh, do that. If we keep doing research with condiments, maybe we can make ramen that goes beyond ramen."

To Ray's words, Georgima deserved to be called fierce... and that was the kind of grin the cook would not have thought would come to mind.
