Jilgeongjilgung-.

After a round of battle, a very brief break.

Adele was sitting in her seat, absent-mindedly chewing on beef jerky.

From nob le mt l. co m

My co-workers swear at me that I feel like I’m chewing some kind of cow dung.

If it’s this much taste and texture, wouldn’t it be quite edible.

“Oh, no. This is not real.”

Took-.

A man throws the jerky he was holding onto the ground.

Nutritional supplementation is essential at a time when you don’t know what kind of battle there will be right now.

In such a situation, complaining about food is disobedience to orders, apart from being immature.

Tell the others around you to shut up and eat them quickly.

It was natural for him to say something like that.

“Today, I also agree with you.”

Took-.

“I really can’t eat this.”

Took!-

Here and there came the sound of jerky being thrown to the ground.

At that, a woman who was quietly chewing beef jerky next to Adele opens her mouth.

“What are you doing? At most, it was prepared by the captain.”

“That’s the problem. The jerky prepared by the captain.”

“Isn’t this telling us to eat and die?”

Dissatisfaction erupts from all sides.

In response, the woman clicked her tongue and stood up.

“Do it in moderation. It’s a battle after a while. At best, it’s to fill your stomach before the battle. If it’s like this, you’re completely ignoring the captain’s thoughts.”

“We say we are wolves, but this isn’t quite right. No, beef jerky made from the corpses of monsters. Eat this and become a real wolf? Before that, even wolf cubs don’t eat monster meat!”

“Right! It doesn’t have to be at least a pig!”

Were they in a situation where the supply line was cut off again this time?

No, this time I can receive supplies.

Furthermore, the emperor puts supplies into Wolfheddin first.

Despite this, Wolfhedin was in a state of disillusionment with Adele, who insisted only on dryness.

“Leader. Please, let’s eat properly. I understand only during operation. But even when you step back and rest for a while, jerky isn’t a thing, is it?”

“I don’t know anything else, but please don’t give me beef jerky made from monster meat. It’s just bitter, it’s tough, and why did you add so much salt? Are you making any pickles?”

They are colleagues who never complained under any circumstances.

Even when giving orders to charge into a battlefield where massive damage is obvious.

Even when there were multiple casualties, they were always smiling.

But today, it seems like they can’t help but laugh.

If this happens, it seems that there will be a real protest, so the woman hurriedly opens her mouth.

“everyone. Just calm down… .”

“I don’t understand.”

tall-.

Adele, who had been quietly chewing on jerky all this time, finally spoke up.

Then the woman next to him, as well as the other Wolfheddins, became quiet.

Same Wolfhedin, but in the same tragic situation.

The man in front of them is a monster on a completely different level from them.

If they were just wolves, Adele would be at least a mythological monster.

“Why are you so dissatisfied?”

Everyone trembled at the words that did not feel the height at all.

It doesn’t look angry, and it doesn’t feel like asking questions.

However, every single word Adele uttered was filled with a deep coolness.

“How delicious jerky is.”

However, what actually came out was the complete opposite.

It’s not just a random comment, it’s like a sincere question.

Adele asked as she chewed hard on the beef jerky.

“I, chief. Are you sure it’s delicious?”

“yes.”

“Pork jerky or something more?”

“That’s right.”

“… don’t you knit? Don’t you?”

“I don’t knit, I don’t write.”

Saying that, Adele picked up the jerky that had fallen on the ground.

He brushed off the soil with a few taps for a while.

Without hesitation, he began to chug the jerky again.

“If you don’t like eating this beef jerky as it is, how about beef jerky soup?”

“… .”

The moment they heard Adele’s next words, all of the Wolfheddin knew.

This man must have lost his sense of taste in exchange for strength.

No, apart from the lost level, it is certain that it is completely distorted.

It’s not usually twisted, but it’s so much that I can’t even touch it!

“Or I can make you stewed or seasoned jerky… .”

“Hey, bury that.”

* * *

The way back to Lichtenau’s hometown.

Shien wondered if he had made another mistake.

I thought about it and thought about it again.

‘Jerky is the best… . Maybe it was because there was nothing to eat but beef jerky? Since combat was their main mission, they must have eaten a lot of dry matter. But it wasn’t a volunteer army, it was a unit under the direct control of His Majesty the Emperor. In addition, the best unit that even the Imperial Knights can fold. Then you would have received the supply unconditionally. There’s no way I’ll just eat beef jerky every day.’

Oddly enough, I used to think like this.

Perhaps the supply from the imperial family was so good that the beef jerky tasted so good.

From nob le mt l. co m

Maybe it was made with the finest meat and the finest spices.

But if I did, I’m sure I would have eaten other good foods at least once.

You said it was from the hardest times of the Great War to relatively recent times.

It is absurd to say that there was no such opportunity at all.

‘if… Did he even notice why I was asking? So that I don’t have to prepare something difficult for no reason, I’m answering with an extremely simple food called beef jerky!’

For Shien, who didn’t know about Adele’s beef jerky incident, it was reasonable to misunderstand.

If old colleagues saw this scene, they would say, ‘That bastard is just not normal!’ I should have told you.

Unfortunately, none of those old colleagues were here.

‘But this time, I never want to yield.’

It was said that people can be comforted simply by eating delicious food.

It seems that Adele quite likes the atmosphere of Lichtenau.

If so, if it is accompanied by your favorite dish.

Wouldn’t it be possible to present a better day than expected, Xian thought.

“Hmmm.”

And with that said, the question inevitably arises again.

“Hey, Adele? Let me ask you again. Is there really anything else?”

“You mean your favorite food?”

“yes. Beef jerky is delicious, of course. I think it’s the best out of the dry ones. But it’s kind of emergency food. The food I’m talking about, um, yes. You can think of it as being close to cooking.”

At the word “cooking,” Adele fell into old thoughts without realizing it.

In the days of Wolfhedin, there was a colleague who was quite close to him.

There was almost no age difference, and the circumstances of losing the whole family were similar.

Perhaps because of that, the colleague followed him very much.

To the extent that other colleagues complained that they were looking at some kind of adjutant.

‘He said he was a good cook.’

To be honest, I thought I didn’t know what to say.

It seems to be just like that to eat, but my colleagues screamed that it was this.

‘Then he asked why a person who is so good at cooking would stick next to the captain and lie about what he could eat with ridiculous crap.’

For Adele, it was a bit, no, a bit unfair.

It’s really delicious, so that person says it’s delicious too.

From nob le mt l. co m

My co-workers kept shouting at me not to lie and to tell the truth to my co-workers.

Every time that happens, that person says that what Adele did is delicious enough.

It’s good to eat, but why do you keep pushing the captain?

Thanks to my colleagues, I’m a traitor! too much! I’ve even heard it said.

“Adele?”

“… Ah yes. Shien.”

“I will ask again. Anything other than beef jerky?”

Looking at Shien’s expression, it seems that he won’t back down until he gets an answer.

“… Well, except for beef jerky… Ah yes. Those roasted mushrooms… It seems to come to mind.”

“ah. Mushrooms? Well, that’s not bad.”

“And mushroom soup… That’s all I can think of at once.”

“great. That’s enough.”

As if he finally got the answer he wanted, he liked Cien.

If it was something very complex and difficult, I would have no choice but to entrust it.

If it’s grilled mushrooms or mushroom soup, you can do it yourself.

The others are already busy enough with the banquet, so there’s no one to stop them.

‘Look forward to it, Adele. I’ll treat you to better food than you think!’

* * *

A butler with the heavy task of taking charge of Lichtenau’s true nature.

Now he was very bothered by the faint smell of burnt somewhere.

Even if it’s not, it’s a sharp time to prepare for the banquet to be held in a few days.

Even though Lichtenauer was famous for swordsmanship, not everything was affluent.

Wasn’t it just a few months ago that the financial crisis was barely resolved?

‘All the food ingredients are top-notch, so I told you to do it without mistakes.’

The butler clicks his tongue and moves to the original kitchen.

However, the quiet inside doesn’t look like the chefs are preparing something.

If so, what the hell is going on?

It was the moment when the butler cautiously stepped forward and looked into the kitchen.

“… Head of household?”

“Ah, butler. Welcome. I just needed someone.”

After saying that, Shien gestured for the butler.

It’s not anywhere else, but why is my owner in the kitchen.

As a butler, I was very curious, but I headed for her.

And soon, he could see why it smelled so bad.

“… Lord. What is it?”

“Mushrooms.”

“mushroom… I say.”

“yes. I tried grilled mushrooms, how is it?”

At Shien’s words, the butler slowly looked at the ‘grilled mushrooms’.

“… .”

No matter how well you looked at it, all you could see was a burnt lump of charcoal.

“That, well-baked… Same. However, it seems that there is a part that is too burnt.”

“Is that so? Next time I’ll have to adjust the heat a bit. Oh and! this too.”

This time, it was soup with mushrooms.

First of all, compared to grilled mushrooms, this one has a very foody color.

So the butler, who tasted the soup Cien gave out without much thought… .

“Keep it off.”

I couldn’t help but scream.

Our head of household, it seems that he added sugar instead of salt.
