Rice for Enoch’s Second Expeditionary Unit

The assignment that arrived in the morning was something different.

The captain has a rugged look on his face, and Deputy Berley is puzzled with his brow butt down.

What exactly is the mandate? I get war-torn.

"I was told to turn in Lord Ciel Icecolletta for this assignment."

"Huh!?

What the hell kind of assignment is it that Master Siel, who is not part of the Knights, will go with him?

The captain scratches his head once and becomes a distressed expression just saying how this happened.

And he said as he turned the order delivered by the Knights to us.

"This time I was ordered to go see what the" World Tree "looks like in the Great Forest, in the southwest of our country."

"Hey, Shinrinoto-kaiju...?

Unexpectedly, I recite it.

It's called the Great Forest. I've seen it in a picture book.

A forest as beautiful and cruel as a dream, inhabited by spirits, fairies, phantom beasts, elves, dwarves, beasts, etc.

It was like it said that there was a world tree growing in it that was the foundation of the world.

"Captain, the Great Forest is creative, isn't it?!?

"Don't you say that. Elves thought they were creative creatures, too."

"Oh, you did"

Apparently, this task was prompted by the statement that Master Siel reported to the King, "I feel strange about the magic flow emanating from the world tree".

"Late at night, His Excellency Ice Colletta suddenly appeared on His Majesty's pillow and reported,"

Every time a full-body armored Shiel shows up late at night or something, it would be pretty horrible.

Unexpectedly, I feel sorry for you.

But maybe that was all that needed urgency.

"His Royal Highness Ice Coletta said he would be on his way alone, but the king waited"

It's happening in my own territory, so I guess we can't just let Master Siel go.

"So I heard from our Second Expeditionary Force..."

Here the captain cut off his words and turned out to look like he had crushed the bitter bug.

"The forest, called the Great Forest, is called the 'Forest Without Return' where powerful demons emerge and among adventurers"

I mean, I guess you're saying in the dark that once you get in, you can't come out again.

As dangerous an expedition as it has ever been, I guess.

Turns out why the captain and deputy Berley had a harsh look on their face.

"However, this time the Honourable Ice Coletta will accompany you. Your Excellency will not be able to return because he can use metamagic."

But no matter how many siers there are, it's no different that it's a forest that's dangerous enough to threaten your life.

"It's sudden and bad, but we leave after noon. Food, etc., was prepared by the Knights, so that they would take it"

They seem to have prepared sun-drenched food, not the Knights' unsavory portable food.

They took a lot of care of it because they know there's a fairy Nix with infinite storage capacity.

"General, get ready and meet me at noon."

Copy, salute and dissolve, everyone.

First I check with the three sisters Amelia, Stella and Esmeralda, the phantom beast.

"I'm going on a mission after this, what do you want to do?

It's a dangerous place, so you won't have to follow me.

"Que Que!"

"Ku!"

Amelia and Stella say they will accompany them. He wants to protect me.

"Oh, thank you. Very, very comforting."

Esmeralda, on the other hand, said as she moved her ears a little.

"Cu, cu, cu"

Even if I go on an expedition, there's nothing I can do to help, and if I'm forgotten, I'll be in trouble, so he says I'll wait.

"Oh, but what's the meal...?

Esmeralda basically only eats what I make.

"Cu, cu"

"Oh, really? Okay."

Said I wouldn't have to eat the fruit if someone peeled it off.

What a lady!

But he said he would eat even the fruit stripped by others. The Phantom Beast Protection people will be happy to peel it off.

Looks like Esmeralda's trying to change me, too.

"Okay. So keep Esmeralda a good girl."

"Cuh!"

Amelia and Stella went to pick the fruit to take on the expedition.

Esmeralda enters a cage with velvet and becomes round.

The cage was entrusted to the Phantom Beast Protection Authority, which brought fruit.

I'm complaining about some cum, but I want you to do it well.

"Humph, humph, humph."

Singing a nose song, wrapping nuts, cookies, candy, etc. in a tang grass patterned cloth was an album.

"That, Album. Are you following me this time?

"Un. Great forest ha, oily ingredients no treasure trove dakarane!

"Are you familiar with it?

"Maa, Chotdakene"

Leaving aside that it's for food purposes, it's comforting if you know the Great Forest.

"The Great Forest is not like the usual expedition destinations. If you were distracted by all the food, it would be a big deal."

"Pancake no daughter Monet!

"Well...... right"

Album is right, I too have been distracted by the ingredients and have failed a lot.

We must be vigilant and move on.

Then we have to get dressed, etc., and pack the ingredients prepared by the Knights in the nix.

It was prepared by...

"Hey, raw ham!?

It was overwhelmingly stocked with logs. Then, on a chunk of bacon, I was wondering if this was still the case with fish smoke, half-life dried meat, salted fish eggs, fluffy white bread, hard black bread and luxury ingredients that you wouldn't normally see.

"This seems to have been ordered and prepared by the king."

The captain calls out from behind if he's stunned up front with luxury ingredients.

Oh, my God, these ingredients seem to have been provided by His Majesty the King.

"I guess it's because I have His Excellency Ice Coletta. You can't feed me bad stuff."

"I see."

I was feeding the most important person in such a country a native leaf around...

With trembling hands, I stuffed the nix with luxury ingredients.

And after noon - Master Siel appeared with metastatic magic.

"You made me wait!

With a comerve on his shoulder and a full body armor across Alita, Master Ciel looked like a brave hero as portraited.

No, I'm a real big hero.
