Pour the shacha noodle soup into the bowl, add the cooked noodles, and top with the prepared or pan-fried toppings.
With that, the shacha noodles are complete.
The old uncle Cid also carried the large bowl filled with shacha noodles to the table.
Naturally, he also saw the petrified and now sorrowful cat Kirara...
"Kirara, what's wrong? What happened?"
My cat was still lively and cute when I came in—how did she turn into this sad state after I finished cooking?
"Meow... meow..."
The sound from cat Kirara was truly heartbreaking to hear and tear-jerking to listen to.
And the more painful part was...
The old uncle couldn't understand Kirara's cat language at all...
He only knew that Kirara's condition was very bad.
Since Kirara seemed unable to be questioned, the old uncle instinctively turned his suspicious gaze toward Yae Miko nearby, who clearly looked like she was enjoying the show.
No, can't look at the fox with biased eyes. Although there's a 90% chance she did this, confirmation is still needed first.
"Shogun, do you know what's going on?"
"Miko just leaned close to Kirara's ear and said something, and then Kirara became like this."
Hm...
Only now did the Shura Anyakonsen-shou look at this fox of joy who had clearly found her amusement.
"What did you say to Kirara?"
The joyful scent emanating from Miko wasn't hidden in the slightest.
"Nothing much—just simply told Kirara the fact that she's actually a cat~"
Although the Shura Anyakonsen-shou belonged to the category of [boring but interesting], the premise was that she couldn't find his troubled expression, or rather, finding his troubled expression was truly too difficult.
But this also meant another thing.
[Rare] is also a kind of preciousness.
The Shura Anyakonsen-shou's troubled and distressed expression when encountering something would be the most exciting [interesting] thing for the fox.
At this moment, the Shura Anyakonsen-shou was indeed having a headache over this matter...
The current situation was roughly understood.
Kirara must have realized that her proud fox identity was being denied, so she felt sad...
Actually, the most realistic approach right now would be to just let it pass.
After all, Kirara really is a cat girl, not a fox girl.
But how to put it...
Seeing Kirara so overly sad that she probably doesn't even want to eat...
It actually reminded Cid of something.
Child, do you believe in light?
For Kirara, this fox identity might not just be about being a fox.
It probably contains a lot of emotions from other foxes as well...
In the end, the Shura Anyakonsen-shou tried to activate the face-saving fruit and looked at Yae Miko.
"Miko, how about you agree to let Kirara register as a fox for a bit?"
At this time, Miko was completely immersed in the Shura Anyakonsen-shou's fun.
"Hm? Even if I agree, it won't work, because a cat is a cat, and a fox is a fox~"
Yae Miko could be said to be fully indulging in the old uncle's troubled expression while taking care of a child.
And upon hearing this, Kirara became even sadder...
Yae Miko, you're even adding fuel to the fire...
Fine, I don't have no way to handle this myself. Once I'm done with Kirara, I'll deal with you...
"Raiden Shogun, is Kirara a cat or a fox?"
Cid could only pin his hopes on his good student, Raiden Shogun.
At the same time, he winked and signaled to Raiden Shogun.
Raiden Shogun was just about to answer, but seeing the Shura Anyakonsen-shou's special expression, she first paused to think silently.
