I Think It’s Inevitable for Tension to Rise After Seeing Meat for the First Time in a Long Time (1)

Mia and the others cut up the meat that was laying on the table.

It seems like the flowerkins don’t have the culture of eating meat so Frau and the others watched the preparations for the barbecue from afar with a curious look on their faces.

Instead, they gathered dry firewood from the mountains in the east so we had no trouble making fire.

「Seasonings: salt, garlic, and….a few herbs.」

In the upper and lower continents, pepper is a very expensive seasoning.

The main seasoning is salt.

「Good thing I planted garlic!」

I’m no culinary expert so I only sprinkled salt, herbs, and garlic on the meat. As expected, the smell of garlic is so appetizing.

Since we don’t have a grill, we used an open fire.

We made skewers out of the fireproof handy grass and stuck meat and vegetables on them.

Skewers looked like barbecue.

「Ohhhhh～!」

「Catkins don't like leeks, right? Here, these skewers are yours.」

「Nyaa, how can you know the weakness of our race?…..Riito-shi, who are you….!?」

「Eh? Ah, don’t mind it.」

I thought that was common knowledge. In my previous life, I had fantasized about owning a cat as an escape from reality while working at a black company. My knowledge came from it.

「Funyaa～♪ Silver vine sake nyaa～～♪」

「Ah, Mama, you sneaky nyaa! Give me some too nyaa!」

「No, nyaa, first come first served.」

「Uhnyaa!」

While looking at the sake-loving catkins from the side, I can’t help but stare at them seriously.

Since nothing is happening, let’s just cook.

The fire used is something that emits infrared rays so the meat is grilled carefully.

The savory smell of the meat wafted through the air and even the flowerkins were gulping down as if they discovered something other than the usual vegetable they eat.

「Alright, it’s ready.」

The barbecues I slowly cooked are distributed to the guests.

The flowerkins were a little intimidated by the juicy meat so I made separate vegetable skewers for them. There were literally thousands of vegetables to choose from.

「Thanks for the food!」

Fresh meat is a luxury item for both the empire and the guild autonomous region.
