"Val, were you here too?

"Ah? Leon. Temehe, too, is not a pain in the ass.

... For some reason, Leon is very fond of Val.

Leon, who finished his greeting with all of them, sparkled his eyes and spoke to Val, who was picking all the different world dishes. Val, uninterested at the time the visitors arrived, beside the others greeting him, also served dishes for Chemetho and Sefek.

Leon, who visits our country as an ally, and Val, who regularly visits our castle as a courier, never have many contacts.

Still, every time Leon comes to my castle, he says, "Is Val because...?" He was asking us. Besides, sometimes I even bother to adjust the date of my visit when I find out the day Val returns to my castle.

Sometimes he appreciates Val for helping himself during his top-secret visit, but he's happy with his unhesitant attitude towards himself.... I tell him that he is one of those who attacked the Knights of the kingdom of Anemone five years ago, before being obstinate, the covenant of Val's priors and servants.

I thought Leon the boulder would also be angry about the knights of the kingdom of Anemone, not to mention the covenant of subordination: "I will not blame you any more for those who have atoned for their sins. The knights were also saved by the kingdom of Friesia as a result." He took it amazingly well.... Although I was a little scared when I laughed in a small voice, "Well, if the dead were, I probably wouldn't have forgiven you".

Then Leon came to me wanting Val to annul all orders, rather than royal disrespect for himself.

I mean, so that Val can kill Leon or betray him if he tries. To the boulder. I also said no to that... and Val himself said, "Are you dying?" He was pretty intimidating Leon at the time. But Leon confidently said, "I'm not going to die.... if it's your opponent." He laughed quietly. I was convinced of that in my heart, too. Because Leon's prowess, one of the targets of the offense to defeat the most powerful Queen Pride in the game last, is real.

In the end, you can lie, hide or defy Leon. I was convinced by giving Val only the permission to do so.

For Val, it's a level of recognition that he's missed by a troublesome guy, but after Tiara, the second princess of our country, he's missed by Leon. This makes me feel like a lot of trouble. Moreover, there are some verses where Chemetho and Sefek have been baking a little yakimochi lately on Leon, who nostalgic for Val, sometimes giving him a glimpse of an interesting triangle.

I still notice Leon walking over to Val and Sefek and Chemetho shouting, "Go ahead and cook!" "Val, I want this!" and the two of us worked hard. Val is quite a sight to soothe from a third party, as he is Sefek and Chemetho, and Leon has a smiling view of the situation.

"Val, why don't you have another drink? I got some good booze in here.

"If you don't mind if I drink it up.

... and the wonder and horse seem to fit. It's really weird though.

"What are you eating? I think I'll take one too.

"On your own. Tha  s better than Temehe ate that one first. It's made by the Lord.

"Pride's ………"

Leon looks at me with his eyes round to Val's words that he says with his hands to get rid of him.

Although it's my cooperation with Tiara to be exact. When I told him, Leon quickly rushed to the table for dessert. If the boulder prince of perfection is just my handmade, you can't still not eat it if it's Tiara's handmade.

Everyone else was taking a breath of dessert and was finally starting to get their hands on the main dish. … though there are only a few more left for dessert. Boulder men. He ate all that dessert and still can afford to cook. It was good that Leon's share was still on the table, although I had prepared the placement for once.

"Hey Lord! Is this some kind of rare ingredient?

Is it a hassle to go get another one, Val grabbing and eating directly in front of a table lined with dishes? I see a croquette with Val grabbing eagles in both hands, ordering him not to grab them bare hands at least from a large plate.

"No, that's not a particularly rare ingredient because it's mainly potatoes, beans, bread flour, etc.

Val looked at this one with interest in my answer. Sefek and Chemetho on both sides took the croquette from Val's plate and ate it too.

Could you have liked it? Though I thought I might like curry or something on my own from the look of Val's brown skin.... Well, I can't make curry out of spices without curry powder on boulders either. Drink big, eat some calf dope, and this time croquette is like an old man in a previous life town.

As it is, Val tells me to come back for the recipe with another one, plus one on my cheek.

"I don't mind that............ you make it?

"Do I look like I'm gonna make it?

It was a quick answer. Chemetho on the side, it's delicious! "You want Mr. Bail to make it," he chuckled as he raised his voice. If you ask me, it seems to be the owner of Val's destination tavern. "I like this too," Sefek agreed with Val with Croquet cheeky on his mouth. Is it like the owner of the store, who even makes recipe dishes that customers don't know about because of their wishes? I'm sorry that I'm going to get more work.

"... than that, don't you just get tired of eating the same thing from earlier?

When I asked her if she liked carbohydrates so much, Val just glanced at her as she raised one eyebrow and said, "What else do you want to eat?" No, there's a lot more!

"Like this if we're going to eat together...

Take one mixed rice rice rice rice rice balls that are a classic dish of fried goods and also carbohydrates and serve to Val to show

And I didn't hesitate to stick around.

It's like an animal to ride out of your upper body, change the angle of your neck, and twist. Eating up more than half in one bite, Val shrugged chewing "Not bad," as he couldn't swallow his mouth in a plain manner. I want you to at least swallow it before you say it.

"... please take it properly.

The person was eagling croquettes in both hands, though I may be worse off that I offered along the way.

When I said that without anger, Val reached out troublesome to retrieve the near-eating rice balls from my plate. He was angrier at Val for throwing the rest into his mouth as it was, "Be rude to the Lord's opponent, aren't you?" as Sefek beat him with pokapoka than I did.

"It's a party, and I'll leave it to you to eat which one... but please don't eat it all by yourself.

Because there are other people's shares. And to sigh and say, once on the plate, Val seemed to have no choice but to croquette this time as he replied raw. He still wants that. Why did you like it so much?

"... you liked it so much?

Unexpectedly, Sefek and Chemetho on both sides replied before Val. As Val picked one croquette out of the plate, he gave it a bite to show off.

"Will the Lord eat too?

See, I picked a new serving of croquette on a plate when I could eat another bite of the croquette in my hand, making it look like it was teasing me. No, for once I'm the dish to serve, I thought.

Just a quick bite.

Stealing a person's rice from a boulder was bad behavior, so I hurried and took just a small bite and immediately looked up. I snuck around, but I was relieved that Sefek and the others were the only ones to see me.

……………

Seeing, rarely did Val keep his eyes round and his mouth wide open. He didn't think he'd get hit back the same way by a boulder. I feel a little rewarded with arrows, and I feel good at the bottom of my heart. Swallow the croquette and then smile and show it proudly, "Yeah, it's delicious".

"... touchy no.

Val, who strayed from my face, shrugged in her mouth small and abominable. That's just a dong pull. You don't have to pull that far into bad behavior to be the first to do the same!

Is it still different from what ordinary people and royalty do to you?... kind of snaps a little.

When Val silently handed Sefek my eating sprinkles and pushed the croquette still served on the plate to Chemetho, he leaned down with his head scratched. They made me angry unexpectedly. I'm kind of sorry, and I say, "Uh... anyway, I'll prepare the recipe for that dish properly, so I promise to raise my voice to the three of you." Then.

"What, can I get a recipe?"

Suddenly, a voice rose from another direction.
