「Rofas-san, you should only eat this much at a time. If you put a lot of it into your mouth, you end up like that. Also, I recommend mixing this wasabi with soy sauce and dipping your sushi in it.」

I said. I mixed the grated wasabi into the soy sauce, then took a piece of sushi with my hand, dipped it into the soy sauce slightly, and ate it.

It was difficult to determine how much wasabi one should spread onto the sushi directly for beginners who’ve never had them before. Therefore, I introduced the wasabi-soy sauce method instead.

「Fwah… I see. Mhm, so that’s what it was. It’s dangerous to eat all of this at once. That’s the same thing with strong alcohol. Your throat would burn if you drink a bunch of carbonated alcohol at once. That’s what this, uh, wasabi, is like.」

Speaking of which, alcohol… Since he compared the wasabi to alcohol rather than things like chili peppers, does that mean there aren’t many spices around here?

Or was it simply because it was Rofas-san making the comparison?

「Kirika-chan, Kurtz-kun, you might find the wasabi to be too spicy and thus hard to eat, so be careful. There are people back in my hometown that also don’t like it, so if you don’t like it either, you can eat the sushi without using any.」

Rofas-san scooped up only a bit of takowasa this time and ate it.

「Hah… The raw kraken has this chewy texture. It’s so tasty this way too. Also, *gulp gulp*, phew. Just like you said, Yuuri, it goes well with alcohol. The spiciness is great too.」

Right?

Spicy food and strongly flavored food go hand in hand with alcohol.

…Although, I barely went drinking after I got married. My husband had said,「Women shouldn’t drink alcohol at home. So indecent.」So, I haven’t drank much alcohol since.

Thankfully, I wasn’t that fond of alcohol to begin with, so I didn’t feel like drinking even though the person in front of me was enjoying them quite a lot. Also, I had to pretend to be a child, so I couldn’t exactly drink.

Mhm. I didn’t like alcohol, but I still wanted to drink some again one day.

Someday…

I know, I’ll celebrate when I reach level 10 by having some alcohol. Let’s do that!

「Yuuri-oneechan, um, the sushi? Kirika wants to have them again. Um, Kirika likes the smoked sushi.」

Mhm, mhm. Sushi with meat was popular among children after all.

One day, I should make hamburg steak sushi or the standard tamago sushi for them.

「Before, I hated vegetables, but now I love them. The spring onions are so good. Eating them together like this tastes even better…」

Kurtz-kun placed the thinly sliced spring onions and smoked meat on top of the sushi rice and ate them altogether.

「Uwah, Kurtz-kun, how smart. That’s right, they taste good when they’re eaten together. How about we call this one ‘Kurtz Sushi’?」

「Kurtz Sushi? Hehe. Kurtz Sushi, I see.」

Kurtz-kun looked happy.

Mhm. Sushi like this doesn’t exist in this world, so nobody would say anything about us naming the dishes ourselves.

「Then, Kirika will call this one Kirika Sushi!」

Kirika-chan ate the smoked bird meat together with the kraken.

Um, could she chew through that? Was she going to be okay?

「In that case, this will be Rofas Sushi!」

Rofas-san spread the takowasa onto the sushi rice and ate it.

「Ah, but that has its own name. It’s called Takowasa Sushi.」

In Japan, there’s a gunkan-maki topped with takowasa, so technically speaking, we already had sushi with takowasa.

「W-w-what did you say…」

Rofas-san looked disappointed, but for him to compete against children so seriously… He really was a child!

Still, if he was a father, he’d be the type that would have fun playing together with his children.

It would be better than a strict father… Rofas-san seemed like the type of father who would act strict when necessary, but would care for his children with kindness. He’d probably raise some good children.

「Putting just a bit onto the rice is perfect. Yuuri-san, what is this dish called again?」

Bryce-kun asked me after he ate a piece of sushi with the wasabi soy sauce.

「Ah, the wasabi?」

「Wasabi? That is the first time I’ve ever heard of such a vegetable. Maybe it’s not a vegetable, but a type of spice?」

Hm? Is wasabi a vegetable or a spice? Um, wasabi is wasabi. Which one is it?

「I got these from Rofas-san.」

I took the ungrated leaves on the kitchen counter and showed them to Bryce-kun.

「Eh? Aren’t these antidote herbs?」

Bryce-kun looked at them confused.

「They look similar, but they’re different. Those are losing antidote herbs. My brother grabbed them by mistake, but I never expected them to taste this good. My brother’s mistakes can be a good thing sometimes.」

Saga-san said and laughed.

「That’s right. Rofas-san is helpful sometimes.」

Bryce-kun nodded.

Huh? Wasn’t what he said slightly different in meaning? What Bryce-kun just said.

「Hm? Right, I’m useful, right?」

He wasn’t praising you!

「Still, another losing ingredient… Status open.」

Bryce-kun checked his status.
