596 – Side Story) The Home of Ramen

A gourmet trip with Sylvian to regain a younger body.

From noble mtl dot nete

The first destination is none other than Japan, a neighboring country that can be reached just by crossing the sea.

ㅡShoo… … !

A large city in Japan facing the sea.

Perhaps because it is a foreign country, the smell of the sea is different.

An exotic landscape unfolds before your eyes.

‘I never dreamed that I would be able to visit a foreign country not on a plane but on a dragon’s back, but this is quite convenient, isn’t it? There is no need for a passport or entry procedures.’

To put it bluntly, it was an illegal stay.

But there was no other way.

I couldn’t make a passport for the dragon, and it was difficult for me to prove my identity because I was too young.

Anyway, even though I’ve been to this world, it’s been a really long time since I’ve been to a foreign land.

If you walk a little forward, a bustling city will soon unfold before your eyes. There was a reason why I chose Japan as my destination.

-Japanese Islands. Let’s go there. The first food I introduced to the Senpung clan was also Japanese ramen, so it will definitely be a good experience for that child.

Another voice of mine in my head.

So the breeder’s voice comes to mind.

He highly recommended a trip to Japan, saying it would be of great help to Sylvian, who is passionate about ramen and noodle dishes.

As expected, it was a good thing I went back to the academy for a moment and asked for advice.

As I cautiously stepped onto Osaka, Japan, I reminisced about the past.

-How did you know about the dish called ramen in the first place ? In fact, I’ve known for a long time that another world exists somewhere out there. Before even building this system.

It’s something I’ve been curious about for a while.

His answer was simpler than expected.

I answered it as if it wasn’t a big deal or as if it wasn’t a big deal.

-After accepting many dragon hearts from my friends into this body of an ordinary human, I was awakened to a new sense. A different dimension that cannot be seen with the naked eye. Perhaps that’s why images of your hometown, Earth, would come to me vividly in my dreams every night.

When asked how I knew about ramen, I was given an unexpected answer.

He had been vaguely aware of the existence of Earth for quite some time. At first, I treated it as just a dream, but I soon realized that it was a real place.

But at that time, I had no idea that things would turn out like this. To think that he would be selecting his own representative in a completely different world… … .

ㅡAs I indirectly came into contact with the world of Earth through a dream, I naturally began to refer to its food culture. I was especially fascinated by a special food called ramen, which involves dipping noodles in a broth made from broth.

He said he was more interested in the food of the East, which has a completely different culture, rather than the West, which has similar eating habits to the Drango continent. Then, when it came time to elect a representative, they took inspiration from Japanese subculture and created a pattern-only game called Destiny Dragons.

Afterwards, when he began to need his own agent in earnest, he connected the two worlds through a system he built.

-Anyway, that’s the way it is. Trying to heal your body with Sylvian’s cooking seems like a pretty good way to do it. Even now, I can’t think of a suitable way.

Even he doesn’t know a clear solution.

Because I’ve never had to cancel a buff.

Instead, he gave me a hint before I left again.

ㅡGiving abilities to food is something that even I, a beginner, cannot control at will. Even though I amplified my abilities through the system for convenience in the name of ‘the five senses of a gourmet,’ it would be more difficult for another being to give abilities to food… … .

-As you saw, it will only be possible to reach 11 stars if it is a food with a special story or emotion. So, go to Japan, the birthplace of ramen, and inspire that kid. Since we are a member of the Whirlwind clan with a talent for cooking, it might really be possible.

That was all the advice I heard from him.

First, take a few days and visit.

In the meantime, he said he would find out if there was another way.

Anyway, the conclusion I got from my conversation with him was ultimately one. There is no way to do it right now, so try to inspire yourself through gastronomic experiences.

“… The beginning? Is there any problem? “Why didn’t you say anything earlier?”

Sylvian’s voice awakens me from that flashback.

“Oh, it’s nothing. “It’s been a really long time since I’ve been to Japan.”

I had traveled to Tokyo for 4 days and 3 nights when I was a college student, but this was my first time to Osaka.

“Right. “You’re sure you didn’t forget the way, right?”

ㅡKkook… !

Sylvian holds my hand tightly in case I become lost. Anyone could see that Sylvian was acting as my protector.

“Put those worries aside. “With this one, you don’t have to worry about getting lost.”

“hmm? Obviously that… … .”

“Did you say it was a smart phone?”

“that’s right. “If you refer to the map here, you won’t be able to get lost.”

“That’s a really convenient item in many ways. Anyway, let’s go to this store first. “I looked into a few places before leaving.”

“Oh, you’re so meticulous! “It’s like the beginning!”

When you come to Earth, you should use the power of civilization rather than magic. The star ratings of famous restaurants pop up on the map app.

The reason I chose Osaka among the vast Japanese archipelago was not because there were any artisan restaurants that I had in particular in mind. As it is a famous tourist city, I chose it as my first destination because I could experience various types of food in one place.

If I wasn’t inspired by Osaka, I planned to move to another area. At Sylvian’s flight speed, he could move in the blink of an eye.

“

Irasshaimase (Welcome)—!!!!”

Oh, and the language barrier was no problem. Because the system was automatically providing real-time translation.

“Please give me two pieces of Soyu Ramen.”

The first place I visited was, of course, a ramen restaurant.

There are many ramen options for Sylvian to experience.

Because Japan has as many types of ramen as it has a large land mass.

First of all, I planned to give people a taste of ramen that captures the characteristics of each region. These are commonly referred to as the three major ramen.

Of course, it was a bit disappointing that the branches were located in Sapporo, not locally.

“We got 2 pieces of Soyou Ramen!”

The first place I visited was Soyou Ramen Restaurant, which has its main branch in Kitagata (Saga Prefecture).

[Soyou Ramen – ✮★★☆]

[Ramen featuring a refreshing soy sauce broth made from pork, chicken, and anchovy broth. The texture of the thick and curly aged noodles is excellent.]

“oooh..! It’s a familiar taste! “Did you ever think you’d taste this refreshing soup in another world?!”

For a moment, I was wary of the unfamiliar environment.

Sylvian lets out a small exclamation.

As expected, she was tasting the soup first.

Just like I always said that when it comes to ramen, you have to taste the soup first.

“how is it? “Does it fit your mouth?”

“hmm! It’s a familiar yet new taste! “The noodles are slightly thick and chewy, so it tastes good!”

“I’m glad. If so, savor it slowly. “There is still plenty of time.”

“ ─Slurp slurp… !”

When Sylvian is told to eat slowly, he immediately drinks the entire bowl of soup. She empties the ramen in one mouthful.

“Huh, Sylvian?”

“It’s not something to be savored slowly. I want to eat quickly and move on until something clicks in my head. “This is delicious, but it still lacks stimulation.”

“That’s right… … . okay. “Then shall we move right away?”

“good night! “I hope the next ramen will be a little more special!”

The first meal ended up being surprisingly bland.

The refreshing taste of the soup was good, but

Sylvian’s overall opinion was that it was pretty ordinary overall.

“… “It will be a little different this time.”

“Indeed… the smell of the soup wafting through the store gives me a different feeling.”

This was the second ramen restaurant I visited.

“Tonkotsu ramen is here!”

[Tonkotsu Ramen – ✮★★★]

[Ramen characterized by a thick broth made from pork broth and pork fat. The thin noodles retain the deep flavor of the soup. The thick char siu served as a garnish will fill you up right from the start.]

Tonkotsu ramen from the Hakata area.

Ramen is quite familiar in Korea as well.

This is also the style of ‘Ichiran Ramen’ that most people who have traveled to Japan have tried.

-Whoop… … !

Sylvian immediately picks up the spoon and checks the soup. As she tasted the broth, her eyebrows wrinkled slightly.

“… Hmm, it’s delicious, but the soup is heavy enough to be burdensome. “It might have been a bit overwhelming without the seasonings and vegetables that came with it.”

This time, Sylvian mutters to himself and analyzes the ramen. Her eyes are alive as if she is serious about ramen.

-Rattle! Dalgak… !

From then on, he moves his chopsticks quickly and savors the noodles and the overall taste. Every time Sylvian swallows a chopstick, he says, ‘Hmm..? Let out a small exclamation like ‘Hmm!’

“Do you feel something?”

I wondered if this kind of reaction must have prompted some kind of gastronomic stimulation… … .

“I don’t think this place is really to my liking. “I want to move on to the next store.”

Sylvian’s taste was cold.

When do you express admiration like that?

He puts down the bowl, saying it’s not his taste.

“already? also?”

“Already? “I already ate it all?”

Sylvian holds up a bowl that is already empty. It’s a quick decision, because who doesn’t belong to the whirlwind clan?

‘By the way, he eats it up as fast as anyone else.’

In case anyone thought I was a dragon, the bowl was empty in less than 3 minutes after I took the ramen.

“You said it wasn’t your taste, but you ate everything?”

“It’s just not to my taste, but that doesn’t mean it’s not tasty. And isn’t leaving food disrespectful to the person who prepared it?”

“Yeah, but… … . “Then, can you wait until I finish eating?”

“Oh, of course.”

This time too, there was no significant harvest.

That’s how picky Sylvian’s taste was.

Since I am so proud of ramen, I guess inspiration doesn’t come easily to some extent.

‘Phew, it was delicious, but did I eat it too hastily for my small body?’

On the way out of the second ramen restaurant.

Before I knew it, my stomach was bloated.

It might be natural since I ate two bowls of ramen in my young body.

“Where will your next home be?”

“It wouldn’t be fun if I told you in advance. “Just follow along.”

“i get it. Rather, this city… is so huge that I don’t know where to focus my attention. I can’t believe this was created solely by humans… … .”

The guy talking quietly next to me.

Sylvian’s eyes move back and forth.

Does he look like an excited puppy going for a walk after a long time?

His usually quiet self is busy looking around Osaka city with a very excited expression on his face.

“Tsk, this is the last ramen restaurant I knew about in advance… … .”

-Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Eventually, we arrived at the last store after walking for about 10 minutes.

“I’ll give you two ramen!”

It doesn’t take long for the ramen we ordered to arrive on a tray.

-Slurp!

As expected, Sylvian checks the soup first.

A quick inspection takes place before I can even visually check the ramen’s star rating.

‘If I just say that this time, would it be a good idea to stop by a dessert place to clear my throat?’

… It was a time when I was thinking deeply.

“ooo… ?!”

“Hmm?”

“This is it!”

For some reason, Sylvian’s eyes, which had always been evaluated as mediocre, were sparkling.
