◇◇ Houtau City • While Furio was still in the snowy mountains ◇◇

Lately, Jarren had been staying locked in his room all day.

There, he went to his desk, took a sheet of paper, and started drawing women’s clothes.

Jarren had been the one who designed almost all the clothes that were used in the Fashion Show organized by the Ûgo Variety Store, which had been held a few days ago, and due to the success it had, a certain company from the Castle City of Cryroad asked him to design clothes.

Someone knocked on the door of Jarren’s room.

「He~y, are you alright?」

Jarren’s face, who was practically glued to the desk, lit up completely the moment he heard Brossam’s voice.

「Ye~s! I’m fine 」Jarren replied as he ran towards the door.

「Dinner is ready, come on, take a break and go eat something」

「I’m sorry for the inconvenience, Brossam-san」

Jarren closed the door to his room and went down to the living room on the first floor next to Brossam.

Normally, that big table felt quite small when the more than 10 inhabitants of the house gathered to eat, however, now there were only three people sitting to eat, Jarren and Brossam, and also Berano, who had also been unable to go on the trip due because she had to teach at the Magic School.

「Brossam-san, why didn’t you go to the Snowy Mountains with the rest? 」, asked Jarren as he drank his soup.

Hearing those words, Brossam, who had just put some mustard on the boiled crab that she had taken with her fork, said, 「N~n? I think I told you I had to plant the seeds for the spring vegetables. We are in the planting season after all 」, while chewing on a hot potato.

「Besides, you were also going to stay to finish making those designs you were working on, and I didn’t like the idea of leaving you alone」

Hearing those words, Jarren shrugged.

If things had gone normally, Jarren would have finished much earlier, however, he suddenly received an additional request, so his work was extended, and he was unable to go on the trip since he had to finish it.

Therefore, mainly at the request of his stepsister, Brossam stayed to take care of him.

「Well, I won’t say it wasn’t a little annoying, but I didn’t want her to worry while having fun with her Husband<Gozaru>. Also, I have to take care of the farm 」

That was the reason why Brossam decided to stay to take care of him.

「Work is work, and you can’t just avoid it. Well, I really can’t do much, but I can still cook a little. I am better than Gozaru-san at least 」, said Brossam while laughing.

「I’m sorry, you wouldn’t have had to stay if I just knew how to cook」

「Enough, alright? You don’t have to give importance to that. If you want I can show you how to do it next time」, said Brossam while smiling.

Hearing those words, Jarren, whose face lit up again, said, 「Th-That’s a date!」

「Why do you put it that way? Oh well, I guess it is」

Brossam, while smiling wryly, lightly slapped Jarren’s head, who abruptly stood up from the table.

Then, Brossam turned her gaze to her side, and said, 「Anyway, shouldn’t you be worrying about learning to cook a little yourself too? You are already big enough so you should start to think that what you will do when you get married, also, it is not good that you are eating as carelessly as you are doing now 」, while pointing to Berano, who was bringing some bacon to his mouth

*Mogomogo《Chew》*. The moment she was targeted like that, Berano looked away as she covered her mouth and said, 「…… (That's still, impossible)」 (Whisper)

◆ ◇ Furio’s Family • The night Furio returned home ◆ ◇

「Here I go~, today I will prepare a lot with this large pot」, said Lys while stirring the contents of the big pot with a huge spoon.

After the group returned home from the Snowy Mountains, everyone except two people began helping to unload the luggage. The two people who did not help were Lys and Barissa, who were in charge of preparing today’s food and were moving around in the kitchen.

「We just got back, wouldn’t it be fine if we went out to eat somewhere?」, asked Furio.

「It's alright, besides, we also have a lot of vegetables, so we should use them」, replied Lys while smiling.

The twins, Garyl and Elizabeth, were in the kitchen with Lys, sitting on the small sofa in the back of the kitchen.

However, Garyl, who had been exhausted from the trip, had begun to fall asleep from the exhaustion he felt.

On the other hand, Elizabeth was staring at Lys with wide eyes.

「Elizabeth, it will only take a little longer. When I’m done we’ll go with Danna-sama(Husband)」, said Lys as she looked over at Elizabeth over her shoulder, then turned her gaze back to the pot.

Later, Lys, 「… This, may be a problem,」said that with a frown as she looked at the contents of the pot.

Barissa, after noticing the state of Lys, said, 「Any problem? Lys-sama? 」, as she stopped her knife and started walking towards Lys.

Previously, Barissa referred to Lys as 「Okugata-sama(Wife)」, however, now there were many other girls who could also be called "Okugata(Wife)" in the Furio Family, such as Uliminus, Bireri and even Barissa herself, so they all started calling each other by name.

NT: I should have pointed it out before, but I’ll do it again. “Okugata(Wife)” would be something like a feminine “equivalent” for the “Danna”, although, well, this instead of referring to the Head of the Family, refers to the “Wife of the Head of the Family”, or well , "The lady of the house”… or just "Wife" but said respectfully. I dunno.

Lys turned to Barissa and said, 「I made a mistake… This pork soup will insufficient for everyone… I will have to make something extra」, with a sigh.

「But, this is the only big pot we have」

「It can't be helped, we will have to finish this first. If we start cooking something right after we empty it, then maybe we can finish before the soup is done」

As they said that, Lys and Barissa moved to the back of the kitchen to find some bowls to serve the soup.

Elizabeth, who had been watching that discussion, continued to watch Lys until she was unappreciated in the back of the kitchen, then turned her gaze to the large pot.

Then, as Elizabeth stared at the pot, 「Indufidien*? 」, she stammered that as she extended her hand to the pot.

NT: Lys says “Insufficient” with “Kanji”, but Elizabeth says it with “Katakana”. I suppose it was so to point out that she still doesn't speak pretty well.

Then, from her hands, a divine light began to emanate.

The intensity of the light emanating from her hands began to increase gradually as the pot began to shine as well.

The light continued to shine for a few seconds.

Then, 「*Fu~u《Sigh》*」, Elizabeth sighed exhausted as she leaned against the sofa. At the same time, the light emanating from her hands and from the pot disappeared.

「Oh Elizabeth fell asleep too」

Lys, who returned to the kitchen carrying some bowls in one of her hands, gently adjusted Elizabeth’s head before heading to the pot.

「Lys-sama, let’s serve the soup to take it to others」

「Yes, the others must already be hungry」

After saying that, Lys started pouring the pork soup into everyone’s bowls.

Then, a few minutes later.

Lys and Barissa, who had just finished pouring the soup into everyone’s bowls, continued to stare at the pot with their eyes wide open.

「… Hey, Barissa …」

「… What is it, Lys-sama?」

「… We… did we served enough soup for everyone?」

「… Yes, there is no doubt… There is enough pork soup for everyone here」

After confirming that, the two looked at the pot again.

Although they managed to fill enough bowls to feed everyone, the amount of pork soup in the pot hadn't changed in the slightest, and it was still the same amount as when they started serving.

◆ ◇ ◆

Furio, who was called to the kitchen by Lys, was checking the large pot with his arms crossed.

「… This pot, isn't a 『large magic pot』, isn't it? 」

Both Lys and Barissa were shocked when they heard Furio’s question.

「Yes, we have not bought any magic pot」

「It’s the same ordinary big pot that we’ve been using so far」

The two said with a surprised look on their faces.

After hearing the response of the two, Furio, with his head tilted to the side, extended his hand towards the magic pot.

Magic Pot.

It was a pot imbued with a special magical power, and it was said that its contents would never end until those who were destined to eat it were satisfied.

By the way, it was an article classified as a Legendary Class Item.

「Danna-sama, didn’t you put magic on it?」

After hearing Lys’s question, Furio shook his head from side to side to deny it.

「No… I thought I shouldn’t be creating legendary items on a whim, so I refrained from doing so…」, said Furio as he tried to find some clue that would lead him to who had turned the large pot into a magic pot.

「Huh?」

Furio, who found the trace of its origin, raised his voice in surprise as he turned around.

There was Elizabeth, sleeping peacefully on the sofa.

◇◇ Naniwa City • Interior of the popular cafeteria 「Food • Moderately • Poisonous」 ◇◇

The popular cafeteria「Food • Moderately • Poisonous」

At first glance, its name might seem quite suspicious, however, apparently, its owner gave it that name since he wanted it to give the image of 「a restaurant where its serve such delicious food that you will become addicted to it」 when he opened the tempts to attract more customers.

However, thanks to the skills of the store owner, Ihitu, who worked as Chef de Cuisine in the Army, the cafeteria became really famous in Naniwa City, in addition, it had also gained quite a lot of popularity thanks to the dishes that were served were cheap and generous with regard to the quantity of food.

That day, the store was full of customers as always.

However, all those customers stopped eating while staring at a certain table.

What they were looking at was…

To the Blond Hero• Yûsha •, who was sitting in a chair holding his face with his arms crossed.

Tsuya, who was by his side with her eyes wide open.

And to Ririanju, who was in front, watching stunned who was next to her.

And finally, Valentine, who was filling her mouth with an incredible amount of food.

In front of her were about 20 plates, almost completely empty, in which there were only the remains of what Valentine had eaten so far.

「Blon-Blond He-*Kiahkiah《Biye》*, this-, this food called Gyûdon* is incredible… *Mugumugu《Chew》* 」

「A-ha, I don’t understand, finish eating before speak! I don’t understand anything of what you’re saying!」

The Blond Hero• Yûsha • got mad at Valentine, who was talking to him while she still had food in her mouth.

NT: Gyûdon or "beef bowl". It is a rice dish covered with minced beef and onion that have been marinated in a sweet sauce made with soy sauce and mirin.

Then

「*UnakuKukuKu《Drowning》*…」

Valentine, who appeared to be stuck, got up from the seat with an awkward look as she held her throat.

「Stupid Woman! That happens to you because you eat too much! Ririanju, give her some water!」

「Y-Yes! Valentine-sama, here!」

Ririanju quickly handed Valentine a glass of water.

Valentine immediately took it and started drinking.

「… *Buha~《Exhale》*, -… *Ze~《Breathe》* … *Ze~《Breathe》*…」

Valentine, who somehow managed to prevent an unprecedented event such as that of 『A Wicked died after choking while eating Gyûdon』, tried to catch her breath agitatedly while holding her body resting her arms on the table.

The Blond Hero• Yûsha •, looking at her with a frown, said, 「You don’t have to rush so much, the Gyûdon won’t go anywhere. So eat more calmly 」, while giving Valentine a handkerchief.

「It-It could be, but it was so delicious that I couldn’t stop myself」, Valentine said laughing as she wiped her mouth with the handkerchief that the Blond Hero• Yûsha • gave her.

「… Oh?」

Valentine, who noticed something strange, stopped as she began to examine the handkerchief.

「The Blond Hero• Yûsha •, this scarf has the name 「Elizabeth」 embroidered- 」

The Blond Hero• Yûsha •, at incredible speed, snatched handkerchief from Valentine's hands before she could finish what she was saying.

「There was nothing embroidered on it!」

「Ah? Eh? But-」

「There was nothing embroidered on it!」

「Ah? Eh?-」

「There was nothing embroidered on it!」

「Ah? -」

「I said there was nothing embroidered on it!」

「Y-… Yes」

Valentine had no choice but to stop asking because of the insistence of the Blond Hero• Yûsha •.

「Ah, but, I messed up the handkerchief. Let me clean it up 」

「You do not have to worry about that! Just keep eating until you're satisfied!」

「Y-Yes! Mr. Employee! Bring 10 more bowls of Gyûdon! 」, shouted Valentine as she raised her right hand toward the counter.

「 understood! I’ll bring it right away! 」, shouted the shop owner cheerfully.

「Damned! I know I said you could eat until you were satisfied, but this is too much! And you too employee, you shouldn’t respond so fast!」

Ignoring the angry voice of the Blond Hero• Yûsha •, Gyûdon’s new bowls continued to be brought to the table.

NT: The Image doesn't really “fit” at all with the situation in the chapter, but taking into account that the Light Novel maintains certain differences with the Web Novel, we can assume that technically, this image would correspond to this moment.

NT2: As always, if you find something weird, whatever, just tell me in the comments.
