Chapter 36: Volume 4 - CH ss2

Seasons have passed since I’ve been summoned.

And it should be February in Japan.

I wanted to make some sweets with chocolate when I remembered this.

I didn’t have a boyfriend when I was a student, but I made chocolate sweets every year for friends.

I’ve looked for different ingredients in this world since I cook at the research institute, but there were still some I haven’t found yet. 

Chocolate is sold at the Royal Capital, and I was happy when I found it. 

Since they had so much chocolate for sale, I started searching and found some cocoa. 

Today, I’m going to make brownies with cocoa.

I gave the finished brownies to my colleagues at the research institute, and they loved it.

Jude loves sweets, so he also tried my brownies and even ate two.

By the way, Director did too.

I thought they tasted good enough, so I was bringing some to the 3rd Knight Order barracks today.

I’m a little worried since I heard that Captain-san doesn’t really like sweet food.

“Excuse me.”

I arrived at the barracks, gave my greetings and entered Captain-san’s office. He stood up from his chair and greeted me. 

Then, he urged me to sit down on the lounge suite sofa. 

“I heard from Johan that you made a new type of sweets,” he said as soon as he sat down. I was a bit surprised by this.

He’d gotten this information quite fast.

“I went to see Johan last night and he boasted about them,” Captain-san smiled wryly and explained because I was surprised. 

Somehow, I can picture how he looked at that time.

Honestly, that person…

I laughed in amazement and there was a knock at the door.

The maid entered the room with tea after she’d received Captain-san’s reply.

I sometimes come here for tea, and they always bring it straight away. 

The knight outside of the office must have asked a maid to bring some for us.

I received the tea from the maid, placed the brownies I had brought with me on a plate and put it next to the tea cup.

Captain-san saw this and laughed happily.

“You brought some for me.”

“I did. I’m not sure if you’d like it though, since I heard that you don’t like sweet food…”

“I don’t, but I wanted to try some after hearing about it from Johan.”

“Really?”

“Yeah. I was thinking of visiting the research institute tomorrow if you hadn’t brought them with you.”

Eeeh?! He’ll go that far for the brownies?

I was a little surprised that he was looking forward to eating them. 

I widened my eyes. Captain-san looked at me and smiled. His smile was sweeter than the brownies or any other sweet.

Stop making that face!

You’re embarrassing me!

I averted my eyes to stop my heart from throbbing violently, and sat down. 

… I’ve sat down, but he told me to drink the tea straight away like he normally does.

This is strange. I looked at Captain-san and he opened his mouth when our eyes met.

What is it? I tilted my head and froze, then he smiled mischievously. 

“I heard that you fed your colleague when he tasted it for you.”

“What?!”

I do know what he’s talking about.

It’s true that I had fed Jude like a fletching when he’d opened his mouth to taste it.

And we were seen by Director.

His information source is Director?!

But, never mind Jude, I wonder if it would be good manners to feed Captain-san since he’s a noble. 

“Mm… Isn’t that a breach of mannerism?”

“In a public place, yes. But we’re the only ones here right now so it’s fine,” he declared with his face full of expectation, so I could only give up.

“I see…”

I mustered up my courage and put a brownie into Captain-san’s mouth.
