Isekai de Kojiin wo Hiraitakedo, Nazeka Darehitori Sudatou to Shinai Ken (WN)-Chapter 39: Making soap and hotcake! Part 1

A few days have passed since Laara came to the orphanage.

There still isn’t any report from Silvy through the cross-continent guild network investigation about behind the scenes evil god’s subordinates, nor about the 7th rank Whikram or about his allies the Balk empire, nor movement about the demon emperors.

Well, it should be fine. Afterall to me the most highest priority is the orphanage, so I can’t do anything but wait.

Despite being in the middle of this, I was currently making the so called soap.

For that sake I bought oil and baking soda and made Shii create pure water with magic.

Making soap is strictly simple it’s complete by mixing natural materials and heating them up.

I’ve done research like this from the time in elementary schools.

But, I had come across a formidable enemy that I had not expected to show up.

“Master what’s that thing which gives out a happy and fluffy smell.”

“Masatsugu-sama, you are already finished!? The dish is finally here?”

“The honey is prepared too~ Hurry, hurry!”

“You guys are drooling too much! So improper!”

“““Laara is also drooling!”””

The soap now was reborn as “Hotcake” instead.

What the heck! I retorted myself as a straight man, no, I understand the reason why it happened this way.

To make a soap you would use “baking soda”, but in cooking this would become “baking powder.” .

Both of the things are the same.

What does this mean?

As long as you have baking soda and water, milk, eggs and finally wheat then you can make a hotcake.

The process of making a soap halfway is exactly the same as making a hotcake.

Well, I somehow managed to convince the orphanage girls that it was a failure.

The girls couldn’t help themselves but eagerly jump at such an interesting conversation like hungry wolves.

Just as one would think, the girl’s eyes brightened up and rushed out towards the town and to buy in bulk.

And in an instant they returned back and gave the ingredients to me and looked delightfully at me and were frolicking with *Woof* *Woof*.

Sigh, why are you guys looking forward for my cooking so much.

But well, I’m satisfied with them being fully fed with food.

That is why my making of soap turned instead into making an hotcake.

Now, I was cooking the dough in a fry pan over low heat.

On the surface of the dough little bubbles were coming and going away.

If I overheat it will become horrible. Baking soda is easy to burn after all.

It’s about time to turn it over.

Being able to cook in this time and area of earth it’s very useful.

I skillfully turned the dough on the other side. A thing I’m used to.

It was making a sizzling same and light brown colour started showing up on the dough and sweet smell was coming out too.

Okay, the heat is just like planned.

“Master’s hot-cake looks very delicious!”

“This hotcake’s taste must be so delicious that I could die from it!”

“Hurry I want to eat it~ Hurry~ Hurry~ Compared to my wait of the seal this moment seems much longer.”

“Masatsugu-dono has the talent of a strategist and the talent of a top-class chef. You’re truly talented!”

The girls were looking at it and were making noise.

Fuumu, it’s overboard with this dish.

Well, certainly I was told that I was more skillfully than the stores they bought but that was probably because the shops were in bad shape.

This time aswell, the girl’s probably were especially hungry.

I was thinking along those lines.

While I was doing such things in the mean time the flame went away.

“Okay, it’s finished! Everyone can eat!”

I placed my finished hotcake on the girl’s plates.

The girls were making cheerful noises and smeared themselves with the honey and butter. They couldn’t wait anymore and impatiently bited the fluffy dough.

“Nnnnn!?”

“This is, terrific!?”

“Haa~I’m so blissful that I’m entering Ascension~”

“It’s more delicious that what the chef in my country makes!”

The girls were giving me praises in high admiration.

“You’re flattering me much. But, surely you’re not making it too much? Anyone can cook as good as this.”

“That’s no it can be true! *Munch* *Munch*! I haven’t encountered such a delicious dish before.”

“Even from my time as a princess of the Elves! *Momu* *Momu* I haven’t eaten any cooking as good as this.”

“I aswell exist from the Myth Era~ But *Hamu* *Hamu* this is the first time that I’ve eaten something this delicious”

“When my country is revived I’ll do *Mogu* *Mogu* whatever it takes to spread the recipe of Masatsugu-dono!”

The girls stared with amazement at me and shook their heads.

Apparently they cannot stop eating.

Sigh, they are really good at flattery. Well, even if it’s a lie I’m still happy since beautiful girls said it.

“Why is it that Master cannot understand how terrifying he is?”

“Too much humility is a problem…”

“Probably this time he also wasn’t serious~ Ha~ trully dreadful~”

“He’s able to do anything, but he’s not even aware of it. Truly troublesome.”

I once said that it was flattery but the girls sighed and let their truthful opinions.

Um, what do they mean.

At any rate, I’ll eat and see.

*Chew* *Chew* Ooh, this is something I made but certainly it’s plenty delicious!

I liked the taste even in Japan, so I reduced the oil and sugar this time. With that a light mixture was able to be completed.

The dough was fluffily delicious. When you bite it there was a dim aroma of milk spreading in your mouth.

I was able to arrange the ingredients into a fairly elegant taste.

You can eat this as much as you want!

This world’s honey has the similar taste as the one from my world!

The honey was giving an impression that it didn’t mix with butter, but it’s totally not like that. It mixed plenty enough so a delicious hotcake was made.

When you put it into your mouth there’s a fragrance of flower, certainly a result from the hardships of the beekeeper.

I eated the hotcake that I made without reserve and gave out my thanks to the unknown beekeeper.

Now, this would be the end of the snack time.

Everyone at any rate was satisfied and had ecstatic faces.

Fumu, to be that deeply moved…

“Was it that delicious? If that’s the case then I would be able to make it before long again since it wasn’t that difficult dish.”

When I said that, the girl’s burst out in a complete agreement of a chorus.

Sigh, you girls are overboard.

But within the group Laara suddenly became aware and opened her mouth.

“But Masatsugu-dono. Is the orphan management all right? Won’t the food expenses pile up?”

She said that in worry.

“No, there’s nothing to worry about it. I’ll figure it out somehow.”

I clearly replied to her.

“Masatsugu-dono…”

Laara stared openly in wonder.

Sigh, what are you so surprised about? 𝒇𝗿𝙚ℯ𝑤ℯ𝑏𝒏𝑜ѵe𝙡.c𝐨ｍ

“It’s natural for the orphanage to feed you girls? You girls don’t need to worry about that, it’s me the director to worry about that. It’s fine for you girls only to play together and study.”

“Master is truly a wonderful person.”

“Yeah, it’s true. He has a bigger heart than even the elves from the forest.”

“As I thought my partner can’t be anyone other than Masatsugu-san…”

“I feel a open-mindness of the ability to rule a Country… no, the world”

At my words for first time Laara was deeply moved as the girls.

“Sigh, I’m just doing things that are natural?”

I said that and denied it.

“The level of Master’s “Natural” is too high.”

“Yeah. It’s as Lucia-chan says. Everyone else would lose self-confidence.”

“If that’s true then the things that the country had done are on the account of it’s talents~”

“If you apply the words of normal to current Masatsugu-san, then he is already beyond the scope of everybody else.”

But the girls looked at each other and said that.

Oi, oi it’s a bit grandiose.

But, the country should put more effort in it’s own parts.

With that from now on I should correct the country so they can guide with leadership.

“But what specifically are you going to do?”

Laara has asked me a question.

“That answer is contained in your stomach.”

I shook my head and answered her that.
