This “Summon Kitchen” Skill is Amazing! ~Amassing Points by Cooking in Another World

The crown prince is the first person in the line of succession to the throne.
In other words, this blond, curly-haired man in front of me will eventually become the leader of this country. It means he is the next king.
It certainly has a great sparkle to it.
Furthermore, the words ‘blonde hair’ and ‘crown prince’ evoke memories of the past. . .

“Come to think of it, I feel like I saw you together with Shizuku-chan a long time ago. . .”

When I lived quietly in a corner of the royal palace.
When I went to the backyard, I saw Shizuku-chan.
I couldn’t even call out to her, I could only see her in secret, but there were handsome guys with colorful hair around Shizuku-chan.
One of them was Thruster-san, and there was also Zezgard-san.
And, I have a feeling that this sparkling blond person was standing next to Shizuku-chan.
At that time, Ash-san spilled information, and I remembered the formula that blonde hair = royal blood = crown prince. . .

“You knew about me!”

The crown prince’s face brightened and he held out his hand towards me.
However, Hurst-san immediately knocked it down again.
. . . . As expected of Hurst-san. Fast and powerful.

“. . . Um, what do you want after all?”

Shizuku-chan put her body forward to protect me from the crown prince.
The tone is clearly not welcoming. But the crown prince didn’t mind, and laughed. . .

“There’s no need! We’re supposed to be together!”

“. . . Are you with me?”

Shizuku-chan’s gaze filled with distrust.
The crown prince gave a quick wink with purple eyes.

“Yes! I’m traveling with you guys too!”

Eh.

“I’m looking forward to it!”

Eh.

“Let’s have a lot of fun at the South Sea!”

Take a trip to play in the sea.
With this country’s next leader?

“. . . It’s a little tough.”

I refuse.

“Hahaha! Shina-kun is honest!”

The true feelings from my heart. The crown prince refreshingly laughed off my words that came out unintentionally.
. . . .Yes. The feeling of this loud laughter. Don’t feel the blood. It looks exactly like Ash-san, who was about to have his collar taken off just now.

“Okay. First of all, I need to introduce myself. My name is Eljar Rengle Brua Lydiata.”

A spell?
Is it a spell you’ve heard before?

“I have a good reason for going with you guys. I need to go to the South Sea.”

“Haa”

“That’s why I will explain.”

Thruster-san, who had been clinging to Ryleigh-kun’s feet during the exchange up until now, stood up.
Yes. I agree. It’s not the time to be there. I want an explanation as soon as possible.

“Actually, regarding the southern sea that you, the saint-sama, and the special forces were planning to head to, there is information that something has gone wrong.”

“An accident?”

“Yes.”

Thruster-san nodded at my words.
Then, Hurst-san apologized and lowered his eyes.

“The south sea is famous for the fish caught in the nearby waters, and it is a sightseeing spot with a shallow sea and port.”

“Yeah. I’ve been there with Gyabussh, and it’s a nice place with no problems. That’s why I chose it. . .”

Zezgard-san, who followed Hurst-san’s words, also seemed apologetic and whispered.

“Well, it’s not unreasonable for these two to choose to go to a place in the south. Even the information that’s coming up now isn’t something that can be asserted as a problem.”

I nodded at Thruster-san’s words.
In other words, let’s go to the South Sea! When I decided that, it was peaceful, and Shizuku-chan and I were planning to have a fun trip together.
However, Thruster-san says that there seems to be a problem. . .

“The information is not a big deal. Recently, complaints with only a vague feeling that something is wrong with the sea, and petitions that are addressed not by the country, but by the region, that there are poachers. That’s about it.”

Thruster-san continues his explanation indifferently.
But smiled at me.

“However, I received information that a magic fish was seen there.”

“Magic fish?”

The usual smile that raises only the right corner of the mouth.
To that unfamiliar word, I replied, ‘Eh.’
Magic fish? What’s a magic fish?

“It’s like a magic beast. There is a place in the sea where magic power tends to accumulate, and it’s called a magic sea. Living things that enter the magic sea absorb magic power and leave the circle of life. That’s it. It’s exactly the same as the relationship between the magic beast forest and the magic beasts. . . . But unlike the magic beasts, the magic fish don’t come out of the magic sea even without a barrier.”

In other words, if it’s on the ground, it’s a magic beast, and if it’s in the sea, it’s a magic fish?
And since are fine without a barrier, it doesn’t seem like there’s anything to worry about. . .

“Then, if they saw a magic fish, does that mean they were in the magic sea?”

“No. The information is that it was in a different area than the Magic Sea.”

Thruster-san is looking at me with a smile on his face.
Strange, right? In addition.
At Thruster-san’s words, Shizuku-chan tightly grasped my hand.

“That’s . . .”

Shizuku-chan didn’t say anything.
But I’m sure it’s the same idea that popped into my head.
Yes, I’m sure everyone here is thinking it too.
In short. . .

“. . . My appetite is running wild.”

. . . . I want to eat fish.

Gokuri, it’s rumbling.
Then, glittering golden hair trembled. . .

“. . . ! Haha! Hahaha!!”

. . . . .Hmm. He’s laughing.
This is what it means to hold your stomach and laugh. I wonder if it’s okay to laugh so much even though he’s the crown prince. . .

“Oh, that’s really funny! I’m getting a stomach ache!”

I stare at the crown prince who is laughing with his body bent.
Then, Ryleigh-kun tightened the hand that was wrapped around my arm.

“Shina-san, I don’t think it’s something to worry about. I think my brother is just trying to follow us on the trip. . .”

“Certainly.”

It’s possible. It’s very possible.
He wants to follow Ryleigh-kun away from the royal palace. But he can’t just go. Thruster-san is such a person, but he is the next prime minister.
There must be some big reason for such a person to leave the royal palace.
Last time, he followed Ryleigh-kun to the Northern Knights as an attendant to the saint, Shizuku-chan.
And this time. . .

“If there is an incident in the South Sea, and if the magic fish have begun to deviate from the world’s conventional wisdom, the country needs to know as soon as possible.”

The crown prince, who had been laughing until now, withdrew his smile, straightened his posture, and looked at me.
Glittering curly gold hair. The purple eyes peeking out from his long bangs are a very deep color.
Even though he just erased his smile and stood in front of me, it seems like he could see through everything instead of the light atmosphere he used to have.

“This country cannot escape from the threat of magic beasts and magic fish. I should see it myself.”

. . . The crown prince himself goes to inspect the southern sea.

Thruster-san is probably going to accompany him as an attendant.
The resolute appearance of the crown prince took my breath away for a moment.
But Shizuku-chan didn’t get distracted. . .
She told the crown prince with eyes of disbelief as usual.

“. . . In that case, shouldn’t you have a proper escort and go without Shina-san?”

That’s true, isn’t it?

“That’s right! I think so too!”

Ryleigh-kun agrees with Shizuku-chan’s honest opinion and raises his voice.
If anything, Hurst-san is nodding deeply, and Zezgard-san is also glaring at the crown prince and saying, do that.
However, when the crown prince loses his posture at such an opinion, he said ‘I don’t like it!’ and stuck his tongue out.

“It wouldn’t be fun to go with those stiff guys! I’m definitely going with Shina-kun! I was able to laugh so much the moment we met, so it should be even more fun if I knew more about her! We can learn more, we can learn more about the South Sea, and if we travel together, everything will be fine!”

So let’s go together! declared the crown prince loudly.
Eh. . . no. . . eh. . .

“Well, this idiot was bored with the royal palace.”

“Yes!”

Hahaha! The prince laughs. Even if you call him stupid, he still laughs.
Thruster-san also said that he was an idiot.
That’s true. Thruster-san probably just wants to follow Ryleigh-kun. That’s why he said something to the crown prince and sent him like this.

“It’s okay! I know it’ll be a nuisance if the crown prince follows you! This time, I’m going to go myself, not as the crown prince! That’s why I want you to feel free to call me Elja.”

A declaration of incognito.
An outstretched hand. A hand knocked down in seconds.

“Don’t come.”

“No way! I will definitely go! I want to have fun! I’ve been working hard at the royal palace for a long time!”

“It’s because he’s the crown prince.”

Zezgard-san’s sharp tsukkomi enters the words of the crown prince.
However, the crown prince. . . Elja-san is undeterred.

“Even I want to eat the food that Shina-kun made!”

Really. . . . .Since he’s the crown prince, he must have heard about the [Summon Kitchen] skill.
In that case. . .

“. . . If I make one dish, will you stay in the royal palace?”

Don’t say you won’t do it.
I’ll make it, so stay in the royal palace. . .

“I won’t stay! I’ll definitely follow you to the sea!”

Because he says it so clearly, ah, there’s nothing I can do about it anymore. . . and I give up.
Then, Shizuku-chan whispered into my ear. . .

“I’ve talked to this person before, but he doesn’t listen at all.”

“. . . .I see.”

“Because he’s the crown prince!”

“I see. . . . .”

Yes.

“. . . Okay. Then let’s go together.”

It’s a little different from what I originally planned, but. . .

“If everyone is here, we can do something about it.”

. . . I’m sure it will be fun.

 

Shina’s group has gained a troublesome person. I wonder if Thruster already told him everything about Shina’s skill or if she will have to hide it.
