“I want to eat shaved ice.”
“Shaved ice?”
I was in the middle of training at the Court Mage Division’s training grounds.
I couldn’t help but say that because it was so hot.
Shaved ice is popular in Japan, but it doesn’t exist in Slantania Kingdom.
Head Magician-sama tilted his head in confusion when he heard my mutter.
“I ate it a lot in my hometown.”
“What kind of food is it?”
“It’s made from shaved ice, and then you put fruit syrup on top.”
“Shaved ice…”
Ice was precious in this world, so they didn’t make sweets out of ice.
Hence, it seemed like he couldn’t imagine what it looked like, and thoroughly asked me about shaved ice.
Still, I couldn’t remember what shaved ice machines looked like, so I could only explain what I knew.
Nevertheless, he seemed to understand it to a certain degree.
After he thought for a while, he cast ice magic.
As a result, an ice pillar towered over the training grounds.
I looked at the ice pillar that was taller than me and thought, what the heck is he trying to do? I looked at him, and this time, he cast wind magic.
The ice was scraped off by the magic before my eyes.
“Like this?”
“Yes, well…”
I saw stunned by the mountain of shaved ice in the training grounds.
Cold air drifted through the area thanks to the ice mountain.
“You can make it if you have syrup, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then, shall we go?”
“Excuse me?”
I tilted my head at his surprising words.
Shall we go? Where?
He said syrup so are we going to the research institute’s dining hall?
I followed the smiling Head Magician-sama without knowing where we were going, and we ended up at the Royal Palace’s dining hall.
The chefs all looked as if they were questioning why he’d come.
Amongst the chefs, I found a chef who comes to the research institute dining hall.
“Can I help you with something?”
“Could we borrow some space? We’d like to make something.”
“You want to make something?”
“Yes. Also, do you have any fruit syrup? We want to use that.”
Head Magician-sama answered the timid chef.
Even though the request was abrupt, the chef showed us to a corner of the kitchen probably because he’d cooked with me before.
“Is here fine?”
“Yes, thanks.”
Another chef brought us some fruit syrup and jam.
They also brought us other things we needed, such as plates as instructed by Head Magician and I.
The preparations were done, and he recast the magic he’d cast at the training ground.
He made a small ice pillar on top of the big plate and shaved it to create a mountain of shaved ice on the plate.
I put some shaved ice into a small bowl, and put syrup on top before carrying it into my mouth with a spoon.
Oh yes. This is exactly what I wanted!
I absolutely love this coldness and sweetness!
After tasting it, I made another bowl for Head Magician-sama and gave it to him.
He looked at the shaved ice in anticipation. Not waiting any longer, he scooped a mouthful and put it in his mouth.
He looked surprised, and the corners of his mouth went up.
“Ooh… This is nice on hot days.”
“Yes. It’s something that you want to eat in summer.”
“I can tell.”
After that, we ate our shaved ice in silence.
I received permission from Head Magician, so I served some for the chefs to eat since they were looking at us in curiosity.
I heard them raise their voice in surprise.
“Aah, that was good.”
I couldn’t help but sigh because I hadn’t eaten shaved ice in so long.
It’ll probably still be hot for a while, so I want to eat it again.
But it’s hard to make this much ice.
Head Magician-sama made some for me this time because he was interested in shaved ice.
“Thank you for making the ice.”
“You’re welcome. I was also able to try a new type of sweets.”
“I’m so happy that I got to eat shaved ice again.”
“If you want to eat it, then I’ll make as much ice as you want.”
“REALLY?!” I replied quickly because I was happy with his offer.
Head Magician-sama put his hand to his mouth when he saw this and turned to the side.
Huh? Don’t tell me he’s laughing?
His shoulders were shaking a bit.
I feel like our positions have changed.
Whatever.
I really wanted to eat shaved ice, you know!
