My World Traveling System: The Harbinger of Death-Chapter 590 - Beautiful Memories

-----

Within her memories, Harumi recalled the first time she ate Omurice here.

"Mom… I don't know what to order…" she sighed.

"Oh dear… Well, what do you want to eat?" asked Clementine.

"I want… rice…" she said. 𝑓𝙧𝘦𝘦we𝘣𝙣𝘰𝘃𝗲l.com

"Rice? Hmm… you like eggs, right?" asked Clementine.

"I do! I do!" said Harumi.

"Very well, Omurice is the best option, I am sure you'll like it." said Clementine.

"Omu… rice?" wondered the little Harumi.

After a few minutes, the food arrived.

Harumi was served a strange meal she had never seen before, while her mother had asked for grilled Wagyu Beef and a small bowl of white and puffy rice.

"T-This is egg? It looks not like egg…" said Harumi.

"That's an omelet, my lady. It is the yolk and the egg white beaten together until they combine into a beautiful yellow color… It tastes just like egg, but more uniform." Said Gustavo.

"Oohh…" Harumi said, using her little spoon, she pierced the omelet, as a fountain of egg came out, alongside the fried rice.

"T-The fried rice is inside?!" she asked. Wondering where it was, she thought they were going to bring it to her later… but no, it was inside!

Her little crimson-red eyes sparkled with surprise.

"Indeed, try it out, dear." Said Clementine, while eating a slice of the beef, it was juicy and filled with flavor.

Harumi swallowed saliva as she timidly took a spoon with rice and egg.

The flavors melded together wonderfully inside of her mouth, she ate the first spoon and continued eating and eating without stopping nor saying a word…

Gustavo, Dan, and Clementine looked at the adorable girl eating happily as they smiled.

"Sho tasty!" she said happily, surprising Frank.

"S-Sho?" asked Frank.

"Uwah! N-Nothing…" said Harumi while blushing a bit.

Frank smiled gently as he tried out the meal himself. The tonkatsu was pork cutlet finely chopped in a generous portion and then covered in panko and deep fried, it was a crunchy and delicious piece of pork meat covered in egg, the combination was wonderful, even more with the rice.

Although it was rather dry, when he combined it all together, the egg yolk gave it enough moist. There was also some gently amounts of spices mixed in, and it wasn't just white rice… there was also sea salt melted over the tonkatsu.

"Oh, this is so good… Gustavo's cooking is amazing!" said Frank, he continued to devour the entire thing as he and Harumi complimented the food in between bites, the food was so good they barely spoke that much, the enjoyment of some good food often left people speechless.

That's because they simply were too busy enjoying the food to talk!

"Silent guests mean that they're enjoying the food."

Was one of the things that Gustavo was once taught when he was taking cooking classes while he was still young.

Gustavo smiled as he saw the two enjoy his cooking. Since he arrived in Japan that he had always wanted to open a restaurant and do his passion, cooking and brewing coffee… despite being such a strong Vampire, this life… for an eternity, was fine to him.

He smiled gently as he sat down.

A voice whispered to his mind.

"You've grown into a boring old man, Gustavo." It said.

"It is this boring life that brings me the most happiness…" he responded.

"How dull… immortality, strength, wealth, you have it all yet… this is what you comfort yourself in? instead of seeking more power? or to discover the truth about everything?" it asked.

"I do not care about any of such things. Deep down, I am still the same person that my family knew… I am a human, even as I am now… and as a human, this is… what I wanted. Clementine-sama allowed me to open this place, and she even sold me the area very cheap…" he said.

"Sigh…"

The entity that whispered to him was obviously the being that he had been harboring since he was a child… a mysterious being that had given him great power and seemed to have said to have a "purpose" but never showing what that purpose truly was.

As of now, since it was called in the battle between Gustavo and Orb, it had woken up, and had showed a very sassy personality, with a seriously annoying superiority complex.

However, Gustavo was an unwavering old man, he was always calm even when annoyed, every time the entity told him how dull and boring his life was, he would respond with the honesty of his heart, and always ended up shutting down the entity…

"I suppose it was fun to watch you cook." Said the entity.

"Oh? Feeling some interest?" asked Gustavo.

"I would had eventually grown interest, you don't do anything else than that, old man." Said the entity.

"If you call me old man, what should I even call you?" laughed Gustavo.

"Hmph." Sighed the entity. It was obviously way older than Gustavo to be calling him an "old man".

Harumi and Frank finished their meal happily, as they drank the last drop of coffee.

"Phew, that was so good… I love Omurice." Said Harumi.

"You really do… Yeah, this was super good, let's come together again." Said Frank.

"Sure! You can bring the rest of your family as well." Said Harumi.

"Oh! Good idea. I want to show my boy in here." Said Frank.

"Hehe, I am sure he'll make memories that will stay on his heart forever." Said Harumi.

The two paid for the food and quickly decided to continue their date, now with their bellies filled.

"Have a good date you two!" said Dan while waving his hand.

"You don't have to scream at them!" said Gustavo.

"Aw, come on grandpa. Let me have some liberties." Said Dan.

The door suddenly opened as new customers came in, a whole family.

"Now get to work!" said Gustavo.

"A-Alright! (Sigh, this old man really works me to death…) Ah! Welcome!" said Dan.
