A Feast [Part 2]

The information from Imperial Japan would be unlikely to directly link to the situation. The whole family went Ugh as they racked their brains.

O-Oh no, Mother! This is terrible!

Whats wrong, Emma? Did you come up with something?

The sun has started to set!!! Its about time the rice is cooked!

Oh!!! Thats right!!!

The Over in Imperial Japan would shoot in summer.

They could still put it off till later.

What was more important than that was

Thats right.

It was tonights dinner.

We have to go to the kitchen quickly With that sentence to conclude, the fifth Tanaka family meeting ended early today.

In the kitchen stood a cook who had nothing to do. Beside him were four blue-haired boys who were cooking the ingredients brought over from Imperial Japan.

How is it? Is everything okay?

Melsa asked the idle chef.

Madam, these are all ingredients I have never handled before, so I didnt partake in the cooking. I left the dinner preparation to the boys who Madam brought along from Imperial Japan, but we were unable to communicate with each other cried out the cook to Melsa in frustration.

The spaghetti napolitan Melsa made in Imperial Japan was more well-received than she ever expected. It was said that the dishs gentle taste had given the Imperial Japanese people a little peace of mind when they had given up on everything.

When Melsa handed Yorikos recipes that she had written with Violets help to Ume, Ume asked her for a favor.

Melsa-sama, as things are, the rice will run out in half a year. We have to live on the food from the Kingdom for the remaining six months until Imperial Japan perishes. To let our people eat delicious food in their last six months, can I please ask you to teach these children how to cook?

Ume wanted Melsa to teach these four boys how to cook dishes that would suit the taste of the Imperial Japanese people using the ingredients from the Kingdom. And these boys who Melsa brought along to the Kingdom after she agreed to Umes request were the very boys who were currently cooking in the Stuarts kitchen.

How was it, Itou? Do you find it hard to cook here because there are no magic stones? Melsa talked to one of the boys.

!!! Melsa-sama! Its alright. The kitchen here is similar to the one in my grandmothers house, so I can manage somehow.

Melsa thought these boys would face difficulties in the Kingdom, a country without magic stones, until they adapted to life here, but it seemed she did not have to worry.

Excuse me Melsa-sama Its about their names Its hard for us to make out the names. Were unable to pronounce them too, the cook reported with difficulty.

Everyone can say Imperial Prince Tasukus name just fine, though? Emma tilted her head in wonder, her nose twitching from the smell of cooked rice.

Pardon me but Master and Young Masters?

Not just Emma, but George, William, and Leonard too, had gathered together with their noses sniffing towards the kitchen.

Oh thats right. His Majesty, too, was calling Imperial Prince Tasukus name normally Leonard nodded at Emmas words without trying to hide his thundering stomach growls.

Imperial Prince Tasukus name is easy to catch! But theirs I-Ituu? Hera? Chiwawa? N-Na-Na I couldnt catch their names at all, let alone remember them!

Im troubled if I cant call their names, the cook muttered.

Mother? Their names How about their given names? While holding back his drool, William suggested calling them by their given names if their surnames were too hard to pronounce.

Well, the thing is all four of them are Tarou.
