As one would anticipate from somebody who runs a Set-Meal Restaurant, Kaori-san may be very deft in her cooking.

[You’re very skillful.]

[Well, I’ve been running my restaurant for years after all. Ahh, right, right, you can expect a lot from my cooking…… but don’t expect too much from the rice.]

[Errr, does your rice not taste very good?]

Once I requested her this in response, Kaori-san defined with a wry smile on her lips.

[No, it’s not that it tastes bad. But Kaito-kun, having been around this world for a while, you also realized that rice is a minor food in this world, right?]

[Yes, I certainly don’t see them very often. However, they are still made in many countries, aren’t they?]

[Unnn. That’s right, but it’s still expensive because production is low and there hasn’t been much progress in selective breeding or stuff like that that improves rice. For us Japanese, these matters were rather delicate, wouldn’t it? I also do my best to select and purchase rice, but it still tastes somewhat like foreign rice.]

[I see.]

Simply as Kaori-san mentioned, rice isn’t widespread on this world. The staple meals on this world is bread, and the one individual I do know who eats rice as her essential weight loss program can be Neun-san, proper? Neun-san can also be a former Japanese although.

By the way, as for Kuro’s household, it’s not that Kuro has a specific choice for both bread or rice. She eats each of them, and rice is a traditional a part of her weight loss program. Raz-san additionally likes rice and eats it usually, however nonetheless, she eats bread simply as a lot as rice.

In the meantime, Acht and Eve mentioned they don’t eat rice a lot as a result of they really feel uncomfortable having a meal with out bread.

“”

Nonetheless, even when that’s so. Since I got here to this world, I don’t suppose I’ve ever questioned the style of rice, nor have I ever felt that it tasted like international rice or something like that.

The truth is, I assumed the rice right here tasted a lot better than the rice I ate after I lived alone. I assume this may most likely be because of the distinction within the capacity of the producers.

[……Ummm, Kaori-san.]

[Unnn?]

[Can you try some of this? It’s a salted onigiri……]

[Onigiri? ……Shiny, it looks like it’s made of great rice.]

Once I handed her the salted onigiri I had taken out of my magic field, Kaori-san took a chew with a curious expression on her face, earlier than her expression turned to one in every of astonishment.

[Eeeehhhh!? W- What is this, this is delicious…… It’s on a level that can’t even be compared to our rice. The heck, you got this from Niigata? Is this Niigata rice!? Is this that Koshihikari premium short-grain rice!?]

[No, I don’t think this is Koshihikari rice…… That’s actually rice that a friend of mine grows.]

The onigiri that I had Kaori-san strive was made with rice produced by Raz-san. Me, Aoi-chan and Hina-chan nonetheless prefers to eat rice, so I often ask Raz-san to share rice with us, however Raz-san’s rice is definitely of a really excessive stage, as even Neun-san, who may be very fussy about Japanese meals, is happy with the style.

……Effectively, I didn’t carry this as much as brag about how top quality the rice I’ve was.

[Just as Kaori-san said earlier, rice is a minor commodity in this world, and because of this, my friend seems to have a surplus of it, so she asked me to let her know if there is anyone who wants it.]

Sure, Raz-san appears to take pleasure in rising rice and has a good-sized paddy discipline, however there have been few in Kuro’s household that eat rice, so she was anxious that consumption was low for the quantity of rice harvested.

Each time I went to get rice from her, she would at all times ask “How about getting extra?”. Nonetheless, even with the quantity consumed by me, Aoi-chan and Hina-chan…… which has elevated a bit just lately with Mother and Dad dwelling with us, it’s nonetheless solely a fraction of what I devour. Consequently, her stock will increase yearly. Due to this, Raz-san seems like they’d find yourself being wasted, so she was pondering of lowering the scale of her paddy discipline.

[So, if you want, should I introduce you to her?]

[Eh? Really!? If I can stock up on this rice, I for one would be very happy. Even if the purchase price is higher than the rice I’m currently using, it’d be perfectly acceptable for a rice of this level.]

[That would be up to your negotiation with her, but since she seemed to be having trouble with a large surplus, I’m sure you would be able to buy them wholesale at a reasonable price. Well, I’ll bring her some other time.]

[Thank you! I think this rice would make “Shigeru-san” happy.]

[Shigeru-san?]

Listening to a reputation I don’t acknowledge from Kaori-san, who speaks very fortunately…… It sounds considerably Japanese-sounding, so I requested her again.

[Ahh, Shigeru-san, Shigenobu Okuma-san is also someone who played the role of Hero like me, and is now a farmer in the Hydra Kingdom. I also met him by chance. Even though he’s almost 90 years old, he’s still going strong and comes to my restaurant about once a year.]

[Heehhh…… There are also other emigrants from Japan huh. I would like to meet them if I have the opportunity.]

[Unnn. I think Shigeru-san would also love to meet you…… I myself would also like to meet the three high school kids that Kaito-kun mentioned earlier.]

With the subject turning in direction of the folks in our homeworld, the each of us bought excited and for some time, we had a nice dialog concerning the Japanese folks we knew.

Critical-senpai : [I see, so this is how he’d make connections with the other migrants huh…… She hadn’t got a connection with the other migrant, right?]

? ? ? : [Right. However, since that one seems to be connected with Kuro-san, they might get to know each other through her.]

Critical-senpai : [Ahh~~ I see.]
