That was an in depth name…… I bought house at 10:30 pm…… and wrote the chapter in an incredible hurry from there, so I made it simply in time.
On a avenue lined with eating places within the Friendship Metropolis, Hikari, the shopkeeper Mizuhara Kaori was getting ready to open her restaurant, the Set-Meal Restaurant Suiren.
Her restaurant is open from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm, and being a Set-Meal Restaurant, it’s most crowded through the daytime. Even then, as one would count on, she isn’t that busy that she will be able to’t sustain with the workload.
For instance, through the Competition of Heroes, she turns into so busy that she would want to rent momentary wait employees to maintain the place working, however throughout regular instances, it’s not that busy. Her major prospects are vacationers who’re attracted by the rarity of the opposite world delicacies, and though they aren’t that many, she additionally had the regulars who stay within the Friendship Metropolis.
The Friendship Metropolis is essentially the most well-known vacationer vacation spot on this planet, and there are numerous eating places that wish to reap the benefits of its recognition, so common prospects are very uncommon and valuable.
After getting ready the components in a well-recognized method and ending the preparations nicely prematurely for the opening time, Kaori glanced on the calendar hanging on the wall.
Right now’s date is circled in crimson, and after confirming it, Kaori positioned a tag on one of many counter seats that reads “Reserved”.
[Alright! Let’s do our best again today!]
Full of willpower, she unlocked the door and introduced out the noren and the signboard with right now’s suggestions within the entrance of her restaurant. Thereupon, a buyer who seemed like a vacationer got here in immediately, and Kaori served them with a smile.
(T/N: Noren are these cloth dividers held on the doorways of a restaurant, kinda like a curtain.)
Whereas her restaurant was reasonably busy, Kaori checked out her watch as she ready for meals. The present time is 11:45 am……
[……15 minutes to go. I think today will be Mackerel Simmered in Miso Set-Meal, so I have to get it ready……]
The rationale for her soliloquy was the presence of certainly one of her regulars. The common buyer, who would come to the desk with the “Reserved” tag, is extraordinarily punctual and at all times arrives on the restaurant at precisely 12:00 nn.
And since she’s ordering “the subsequent in line from the highest of the menu” each time she involves the restaurant, until there’s a restricted time menu, it’s simple for Kaori to foretell what she’s going to order right now.
Since there’s no restricted time menu right now, the subsequent one she could be ordering could be the Mackerel Simmered in Miso Set-Meal, so Kaori began to arrange the dish prematurely in order to not make her wait.
Simply because the Set-Meal was ready to some extent, 12nn lastly arrived, and at that second, a silver-haired lady opened the door of the restaurant and entered.
The lady’s title is Olivia…… The consultant of the Friendship Metropolis, Hikari and the Founding father of the Central Cathedral. Because of the affect of the singularity, Miyama Kaito, she has grow to be a daily buyer of the restaurant.
Though Olivia is thought to everybody residing within the Friendship Metropolis, it doesn’t look like she’s seen usually, most likely as a result of she wears plain garments as an alternative of the priest uniform she often wears in public, and her hair has been tied in a half-up coiffure.
[Welcome, please have your usual seat.]
[Excuse me then.]
Having been to the restaurant many instances, each Kaori and Olivia had grown accustomed to the scenario, and following Kaori’s urgin, Olivia took her normal seat.
[I’ll have the Mackerel Simmered in Miso Set-Meal.]
[Yeeees, please wait a moment.]
Thereupon, as Kaori had anticipated, an order for a Mackerel Simmered in Miso Set-Meal was positioned, so she completed the set meal that she had ready to some extent and put it in entrance of Olivia.
Thereupon, placing her arms collectively in a pre-meal prayer for just a few dozen seconds, Olivia picked up her chopsticks and started consuming her meal.
[……It’s a little different again from the mison used in the usual miso soup.]
[I used a slightly sweeter miso for this one. It goes better with mackerel.]
[I see, a dish made with some ingenuity.]
[At any rate, Fou…… Olivia-san, you’ve gotten really good at using chopsticks.]
It might simply be for his or her momentary peace of thoughts, however Kaori calls Olivia by her first title as a result of it’s much less probably for them to draw consideration than calling her “Founder-sama”.
Properly, which may be so, however there are nonetheless some individuals who acknowledge Kaori’s restaurant as “the Founder’s favourite restaurant”, which hurts Kaori’s abdomen a bit.
[As expected, having eaten this many times…… Fumu, I see you’ve changed the leek you use in your miso soup. Indeed, this one might suit it better than the one you used before.]
[To see through that from a single mouthful…… It seems that your palate was growing at a terrifying pace.]
After exchanging these few phrases, as she watched Olivia’s very swish actions…… “Arehh? Since when did my restaurant grow to be a excessive class one?”, or so Kaori couldn’t assist however surprise. Not minding Kaori’s ideas although, Olivia elegantly continued to eat her meal silently.
After ending each grain of rice, she put her arms in a prayer once more earlier than standing up and inserting a coin and a chunk of paper on the desk.
[Thank you for the meal. Here’s my schedule for next month’s visit.]
[Ah, yeeeeees. Alright.]
[Well then, I’ll see you again.]
After leaving these phrases with a light-weight nod, Olivia left, and after seeing her off with a smile…… Kaori seen that the opposite prospects within the retailer…… had realized that Olivia was the Founder. Feeling that a number of of them wished to ask Kaori questions, she may solely set free a sigh.
