Chapter 11 – Omurice

We three return to the church with the setting sun.

Eirias has been just driven out from the apartment, therefore, she will stay in te church for a while.

「We are back nanodesu!」

「This is our home」

「So sorry, not only you saved me, but you even give me a place to stay……」

「We don’t mind this much」

Rather, having one more cute girl around, what kind of reward this is.

I thank the G.o.d for this treatment wholeheartedly.

「Does’t Tak.u.ma-sama seem to think about something perverted desu?」

「Do, do, don’t be so absurd!」

I avert my gaze from Tina.

Is that because she’s young that she’s very sensitive or am I that easy to understand?

Let’s be careful as much as possible from now on, un.

「By the way, Tak.u.ma-dono」

「Yes?」

「Although it’s our first meeting, would you please drop the honorifics?」

The sense of distance is making her itchy.

She’d like me to call her Eiri if possible.

「Okay, I understand, Eiri. I would also feel more comfortable like that」

「Ah, sorry about that, Tak.u.ma-dono」

「Hey, you will keep using the dono?」

Ah, well.

I have a feeling that the mood has lightened compared to before.

「Then, right to the subject……」

Kuu~

I heard cute sounds, different from Tina’s stomach from somewhere.

「…… Though I was going to start, let’s eat first」

「S, sorry…… I didn’t eat anything since yesterday……」

「I can see that」

The most important thing is filling one’s stomach after all.

You can’t fight the war on an empty stomach.

I will let Eiri eat plentily so she can do a good work.

「Tak.u.ma-sama! I want to eat the『Omurice』we had before!」

「Omurice, huh? We have some eggs left, let’s make Omurice then」

The stock of rice is more than enough.

Besides, after collecting seasonings, we have been able to get a sauce similar to ketchup.

At this rate, the day I will find mayonnaise may be close.

「Omu, raisu?」

Eiri tilts her head.

「It a dish that consists of rice, chicken, onion, and ketchup wrapped up in a thin layer of omellete」

「Hou, rice!」

Eire has snapped.

「Is rice perhaps Eiri’s country’s staple food?」

「Yes! Rice is our Yamato’s source of energy! There is a legend that G.o.d has infused his energy to every single grain and bestowed it to 800 million people」

「That’s too much of belief」

I wonder if Eiri’s birthday Yamato is similar to j.a.pan?

It also sounds imposing.

「Tak.u.ma-sama is amazing nodesu! He is able to make any ingredient taste delicious nodesu!」

「Hou hou, I will look forward to it」

「Wait Tina, don’t raise the hurdle」

Therefore, it has been decided that I will be making Omurice.

First, I cook the chicken and onion cut into small pieces on the frying pan.

I salt the onions after they become soft and throw in the cooked rice.

I add the ketchup and after the chicken becomes nice in the color I sprinkle it with a black pepper.

I stop the fire and divide it into a three bowls.

With this, the foundation is done.

The nostalgic sweet fragrance of ketchup is very appetizing.

「I’m already hungry nodesu!」

「What…… to use rice in such way……」

The brightness in Tina’s eyes increases, Eiri stares at my cooking technique.

I start making the omelet.

I have to make it before the rice becomes cold.

I put b.u.t.ter on the frying pan and let it spread all over the surface.

When the b.u.t.ter melts, I weaken the fire and pour a mix of eggs and milk into the frying pan.

I wait for five seconds, then mix the eggs and milk with chopsticks, making scrambled eggs.

When it becomes half-cooked, I slide around it with a spatula.

This is the most difficult step.

When I did this for the first time, I left a hole in the egg similar to blast hole from an explosion, but I’m able to do it quite well now.

Cooking is fun, after all, un.

「Conceal the tears with ketchup and…… done!」
