Miso Soup That’s Too Delicious
“Well, go on, try some.”
Your heart’s pounding, right? Excited, right?
It’s an unknown flavor. It’s miso! Come on, try the miso.
Don’t close your eyes. It’s fine.
“Then… as the head chef of the Marsh household, I, Gordon, shall partake… gulp.”
Yeah. Yeah, that’s right.
That face, that’s the one. He looks so happy… huh? Though his eyes are bloodshot?
“Eh? Gordon. You shouldn’t make that kind of face… maybe after all…”
“What bliss. What on earth were the dishes I’ve made all this time? Garbage? Trash?”
Marle, you can’t wait anymore, can you? After hearing all that, you want to try it too, right? Of course you do. Of course you do. Go on, try the miso.
“Gulp. So this is miso… it’s far too delicious. This is a revolution in food. That miso from the miso bees could taste this good…”
Whoa there, Gordon, you’re going for seconds already?
W-wait a second! Mine’s going to disappear!
Hey now, hey now, Marle, don’t smack Gordon on the head and hands like that.
Let’s eat nicely, okay?
“Hey… there’s still some left for me, right?”
What’s with those faces? Like the end of the world just came.
You two are making the exact same grim expression.
“Ah~ y-yes, there is, Young Master. Please, go ahead.”
Hey, Gordon, let go of the pot! I want some too.
H-hey, Marle… why are you glaring like that? What’s with the hand in your chest? Don’t pull out a knife!
“Yeah… man, this miso soup is good.”
I ended up throwing my hands up, banzai! Banzai!
“Hauu… so cute…” dazed
“Hauu… my oshi is precious…” spacey
“So? The miso’s delicious, right?”
““Yeees~””
Hey now, keep the replies short.
But they look so happy… well, whatever.
Seeing the two of them smiling made me grin too.
“My my, what are you all doing?”
“Marle, Gordon, your faces are completely slack. Tighten them up.”
“Young Master Kaito, Chairman Inuma of the Margin Company has arrived. Where shall I show him in?”
“Hmm? What is this delicious smell? And what have you two been eating? Am I being left out? How cruel.”
“Sebas, calm down. You should taste it too. Here, it’s good.”
“Thank you very much, Young Master Kaito.”
“That’s miso from a miso bee, by the way.”
Sebas, what’s wrong?
Why are you holding the spoon and slowly turning your stiff neck toward me like that?
“Sebas? You want to drink it, right? Go on.”
“………………………………”
““Hurry up and drink.””
Hey, don’t stare at it like you’ve got no choice, making that resigned face.
“Gulp.” ………………………………
“Gulp gulp gulp.”
“Hey~ hey, wait! That was mine~”
“Haaah… that was delicious.”
Don’t say that was delicious! My fish-head soup!
You drank it all, Sebas, you idiot!
“Gordon.”
“Yes, Young Master.”
“You remember how to make that miso soup from earlier, right? Later we’re going to have Papa, Mama, and Ari try it too, so make the same thing again, just a bigger batch. Someone might go and eat it all on their own like a certain someone.”
Sebas, what are you doing praying and crying for?
Smack!
I lightly slapped Sebas on the cheek.
“Honestly, I never want that to happen again, got it? A steward eating all the food before the son of the head of the house he serves, that’s impossible. Reflect on yourself.”
“My deepest apologies. I will be more careful from now on. I am truly sorry!”
A ninety-degree bow.
Well… honestly, I’m not really that angry.
Because the shock of encountering that deliciousness for the first time must be overwhelming.
So… well, whatever.
“Marle, alright, introduce me to Chairman Inuma of the Margin Company.”
“Understood, Young Master. But first, shall we get you changed?”
“Oh~ and the pork should be cooked through and tender by now, so turn off the heat.”
