Chapter 7 | |
Yuma Mochizuki |
Are you guys… making something? |
Senri Nito |
N– No, nothing! We were just playing around with knives! |
Yuma Mochizuki |
… That’s dangerous. |
Touji Harimiya |
No, worry not, Mochizuki-kun! Th- The truth is, there exists something in the world called the “Kitchen Knife Championship”! |
Senri Nito |
Right! In order to secure first place there, we’re doing special training! |
Yuma Mochizuki |
“Kitchen Knife Championship”…? Yanagi-senpai, too? |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Me and knives don’t go well together. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
… Even though you get stabbed with them? |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Oh, yeah, that did happen ^_^ |
Senri Nito |
A-Anyway, Yumapi! It’s dangerous in here, so youd better return to your room! |
Yuma Mochizuki |
But… my sweet potatoes… |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
What a pain. It’s useless to keep trying to hide it. |
Senri & Touji |
! |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Yuma, we were trying to make your favorite food for you. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
Eh…? |
Senri Nito |
Ugh, dammit! Why did you just reveal it like that, you moron lion! |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
We can’t trick him, you know. (r u sure) |
Touji Harimiya |
Well… I suppose he’s already seen the ingredients, too… |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(My favorite food… for me?) |
The vegetables laying out, the aburaage, konjac… and what looks like pork. | |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Could it… pork soup?) (But why is there smoke coming out of the microwave…?) (That thing charred black, the thing chopped too finely on top of the cutting board… it’s a mystery.) |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Let us finish it. I don’t like leaving things half-assed. |
Senri Nito |
That’s right. Yumapi, we’ll definitely make you delicious pork soup, so just lay back and watch! |
Touji Harimiya |
Heh. Behold my first-rate knife-handling skills! |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Anyway, we’re going to keep making it until it’s finished, so sit there, shut up, and wait, stupid Yuma. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Going this far… just for my sake…) |
Yuma Mochizuki |
… Thank you. Then I’ll watch. |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
I’m waiting for a call from my sweetie, so I suppose I’ll stay and learn a little by watching myself. |
… ….. ……… | |
Senri Nito |
Huh? Is this really how you’re supposed to cut the carrots? Well, whatever. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(That’s practically finely chopping them… for carrots, it’s okay just to cut them into quarters…) |
Touji Harimiya |
Hmmm. Is there skin on this thing called a burdock? No skin? How puzzling. I’ll look it up online. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Harimiya… the skin on that burdock looks thick. If it were Granny, she’d scrape it off with the back of the knife. Then, you cut it diagonally into thin slices…) |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Oh? So that’s what a burdock root looks like. I’ve never seen one before it’s already been prepared. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
… What kind of life have you been living that you’ve never seen a burdock before it’s been cooked? |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Hm? A normal one? ^_^ |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Oi, Bonbon, are the safety goggles not here yet? |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Goggles…?) |
Touji Harimiya |
Ah, my apologies. It should only be a little longer. Right now, old man Yoshi is arranging to send powerful protective goggles that can withstand any gas, liquid, or solid. |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
What are you going to use such high-performance goggles for? |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Ha? For cutting the tamanegi, obviously. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
Eh…….. |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Why do you need to wear goggles for cutting tamanegi? |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Because the allyl sulfur compounds make your eyes water. Didn’t you know that? |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Oh? Cooking sounds quite perilous. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Going out of your way to wear goggles for cutting tamanegi…? Shishimaru and Harimiya are… both weird.) |
Senri Nito |
Huh~? While I was peeling the skin off the poatoes, they suddenly turned super tiny~! |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(Wha…!? He cut off so much of the edible portion… wh-what a waste…) |
Takaomi Shishimaru |
Isn’t anything fine as far as potatoes or whatever go? |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Ah, by the way, Yuma. Why have you been holding on to the sweet potatoes this whole time? They’re big. |
Yuma Mochizuki |
So you’ve at least seen what sweet potatoes look like before they’re cooked… |
Yanagi Hanabusa |
Haha. I at least know that much about the world. |
Senri Nito |
Nice, Yumapi~! Please! I’ll put those sweet potatoes in the soup in place of these tiny potatoes! |
Yuma Mochizuki |
Ah… sure, but… |
Senri Nito |
Thank you~! I’ll take good care of them! First I’ll take the knife and slice off the bothersome purple skin~ ♪ |
Yuma Mochizuki |
– Wait. |
Senri Nito |
Eh? |
Yuma Mochizuki |
(That’s it, I can’t take any more.) |
With nimble movements, I took back the sweet potato from Nito. | |
Senri Nito |
Wah… |
