Huh, having the Shogun cook?
Miss Yumemizuki Mizuki was momentarily stunned. She had thought Mr. Cid would cook while explaining some grand principles to the Raiden Shogun…
She never expected he would actually have the Raiden Shogun do the cooking?
"Why should I cook?"
The Shogun asked exactly as Miss Mizuki had anticipated.
"Food is the paramount necessity of the people, Your Excellency the Shogun. I believe that the act of cooking will effectively help you understand the emotions of the common folk."
"I see. Then I will begin cooking."
The Shogun, who completely trusted Shura Anyakonsen-shou, had no doubts at all. She stood up and went to the kitchen provided by Mr. Cid.
At this moment, Yumemizuki Mizuki—who was seeing the teaching scene for the first time—was greatly shocked.
Mr. Cid is truly amazing… to actually make a god cook…
"Wait a moment. Do you have any ideas about what to make, Your Excellency?"
Mr. Cid stopped her first.
"This body has never cooked before. I have none. What ideas does Shura Anyakonsen-shou have?"
The Raiden Shogun spoke honestly.
"I have a recommended item: dango milk. Take a small sip, Your Excellency, and use that as your impression to create a dish. How about it?"
"Very well."
The Shogun took the dango milk and took a small sip…
At this moment, the Shogun only felt that the drink was somewhat sweet and thick. Beyond that, she felt nothing else…
Then, the Shogun looked at the dazzling array of ingredients prepared by Shura Anyakonsen-shou and began her first-ever intuitive cooking in life…
She lit the fire. Dango milk—as the name suggested—must involve milk, so the Shogun's first ingredient choice was correct. At the very least, it still looked somewhat proper.
Then… it was sweet, so obviously sugar must be added…
Yumemizuki Mizuki watched as the Shogun dumped in a lethal amount of salt…
She subconsciously wanted to speak up and stop her, but Mr. Cid reached out to restrain her.
Since Mr. Cid was doing this, he surely had his own deep intentions. Better to follow his lead…
Then Mizuki watched as the Shogun boiled the milk in water while adding Violetgrass, Snapdragon, Naku Weed, Sakura Bloom…
So many random miscellaneous things thrown in…
And remembering that lethal amount of salt earlier…
The Shogun also realized that what was boiling didn't seem right—it didn't look like dango. So she picked up the nearby kitchen knife and started cutting dango directly in the pot…
As for the result, nothing in the pot could be recognized as any specific ingredient anymore. It was all a mushy mess, and the Violetgrass had even turned purple from the coloring…
The Raiden Shogun looked thoughtful. It seemed not sticky enough, so in a stroke of genius, she grabbed the nearby flour and poured it straight into the pot…
Yumemizuki Mizuki realized something was wrong.
Wait—the Shogun had just used Electro energy to process the ingredients, right? And collecting Sakura Bloom also requires Electro attachment…
With the way the Shogun was pouring, flour was flying everywhere. Electro energy plus the open flame under the pot, combined with the flour dust…
The old uncle had already positioned himself in front of Miss Yumemizuki and little Sara.
Bang~~
Bounce-bounce bomb!
Everything could explode!
Art is explosion!
Dust explosion plus Overloaded reaction—it was an instant work of art!
Fortunately, Shura Anyakonsen-shou promptly created a flow of wind, forming a safe zone. Not only did he protect the two humans and one youkai inside, he also saved the Tenshukaku itself.
This Tenshukaku couldn't be blown up—if it were, he'd have a headache figuring out how to rebuild it.
Truly a sight he had lived long enough to see. He never thought kitchen explosions were something that actually happened…
The old uncle wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. Getting older really meant he couldn't handle such intense stimulation anymore.
