61. Proposal to His Majesty
The day after Gu-sama ate the sandwich.
I spent the whole day in the kitchen cooking for His Majesty.
With the help of the cooks, Gilbert and the others managed to shape it in time.
I am thrilled to go to the castle to thank them and offer dinner to His Majesty.
Before I got into the carriage, I was glad that the phone rang to support me.
"Good evening, Your Majesty. I am honored to have your Majesty for dinner today."
"Of course. Today's dinner party is like my selfishness."
While he exchanged greetings, he crossed the table with His Majesty.
Behind me is Lucien and Gilbert, whom His Majesty knows.
When I got to my seat, I first took the lid off the basin that Mr. Gilbert had.
"Is that a sandwich...? Seems a little different from the shape you were hearing?
"We have devised ways to keep the shape from collapsing along the way."
A large square sandwich with bread down and arranged on a plate.
Stick a thin vertical skewer and decorate the top so as to sew the ingredients and bread.
I travel by carriage from my separation to this place.
It was necessary to devise a way to prevent the sandwich from collapsing due to vibration.
So I remembered the colorful pick that I had stabbed in lunch cooking in my previous life.
Stick a skewer instead of a pick to pierce the sandwich beforehand and it shouldn't easily fall apart.
"I see. Sure enough, I can carry it in a beautiful shape, no matter how far away it is."
"Yeah, looks like it worked. Please pull out the skewer when you put it in your mouth."
"Now, let's have it.... is this a wolf?
Your Majesty was staring at the top of the skewer.
Iron skewers are what I refined.
The top tip is decorated with a thin metal plate that resembles a wolf silhouette.
"I'm leaving the house and playing with the wolves the Wolf Watch takes care of. And His Majesty, the King, is in charge of the Wolf's Watch. I have been decorating the wolves with gratitude for my daily contact with adorable wolves."
"Wolf...? Looks like you love the wolves, don't you?
"Yes, it feels smart and adorable, and it feels like caressing will wash your mind and calm you down very much."
Fufufu is great. I love it!
I couldn't even tell you the tension in my brain, so I decided to change it like that.
Oblate is important, isn't he?
"... calm down? You used to sing weird songs...?
His Majesty opened his mouth, but his voice was too small to hear.
"Your Grace, what is it?
"No, I thought it was a wonderful piece of work. Did you make this decoration yourself?
"I used refining and made it. So it won't last long, but it should be all right for today."
His Majesty nodded at my words, pulled out the skewer and put the sandwich in his mouth.
Your Majesty first reached out for a thin slice of the chicken thigh grilled with vanilla.
When I put it in my mouth, I felt that His Majesty's eyes had loosened a little.
Apparently you liked it, after which His Majesty reached out to the sandwich in turn.
It seems that all nine pieces of sandwiches were put into the stomach.
"How are you, Your Majesty? Each sandwich changed its ingredients, but did you have a favorite one?
"That's right... It seemed particularly delicious what I first ate with vanilla grilled and what I sandwiched with sausage."
... I'm glad.
The word "delicious" and His Majesty's answer delighted me.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Does your liking of vanilla grilled and sausage sandwiches mean that you like chicken and pork?
"My preference....."
His Majesty cut off his words and lied a little.
"I haven't really thought about it, but if you ask me, I might prefer chicken and pork to fish and beef."
Hmm, is it like changing your preferences?
Your Majesty, I've been told that you weren't interested in eating, but you seem to be very indifferent.
"I see. Your Majesty, may I bring chicken and pork dishes for your next visit?
"... why did you make such an offer?
"It's like thanking me for giving me that separation."
I just verbally told him that I wanted him to be interested in food, and the relationship between me and His Majesty is meaningless.
Your Majesty may have taken great care of you, but I wanted you to enjoy your meal.
Some people say that the pleasure of eating is half the pleasure of life.
I think it would be better for you to eat three meals a day rather than a small pleasure, because you will be young, take your throne, and have a lot of trouble.
It reminds me so much that yesterday I put a delicious sandwich on my cheek.
The atmosphere was relaxed and it seemed like my heart was jumping at that time.
Like His Majesty Mogu-sama ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Your Majesty, how are you? If you're in any trouble, don't hesitate to say that--"
Was it a big gesture?
I got anxious and asked,
"That's not true."
The words of denial came back quickly.
"If you don't mind, I'll bring you some more food next time. I don't think I can react the way I want because I don't like food, but is that okay?
Yes, it's okay.
It is because you are a disinterested majesty.
It may be difficult to change long-standing habits that have made eating obligatory.
But I think it would be a pleasure if we could share the pleasure of food.
Fortunately, I had time and a pleasant ally named Gilbert and the others.
Even though I could not help the reign as queen or whisper love as a companion, I wanted to help His Majesty.
