A Former Police Officer Who Died And Get A Second Life!-Chapter 104: Making Doria Together
In the end, Cari did not wake up until morning, which made Qiong Xing worry, but he was relieved when told that he was simply tired because he had used magic for the first time.
"Since Cari worked so hard yesterday, shall we make the promised doria today?"
"Yay, I’ll help make it!"
Seeing Cari back to his usual energetic self after getting plenty of sleep made Qiong Xing feel relieved.
So today, they decided to make the doria they had promised before.
Since he had already asked for the preparations as usual, when he headed to the kitchen with Cari, the usual members were there, along with Alberich.
When Cari stopped walking without thinking, Qiong Xing picked him up and greeted everyone who looked fully prepared and full of motivation. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
"Thank you for your help today as well."
"Yes, thank you!"
"Yes, thank you!"
"Yes, thank you!"
"Yes, thank you!"
"Huh? What is this?"
Qiong Xing gave a wry smile to Alberich who looked surprised at the scene he was seeing for the first time.
Qiong Xing had also been surprised at first, but he was already used to it.
"Well, to explain simply, this is a dish where you pour stew over rice and eat it. But you don’t have to stick to rice. It’s also delicious with bread, so please choose whichever you like."
Originally, it was probably meant to be made with rice, but since what Qiong Xing was teaching was only a doria-like dish, there was no need to make it sound complicated.
"Some of you might find it not filling enough as it is, so let’s add some meat as well. I’ll leave the portions up to all of you."
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"...Seriously, what is this?"
If you think too much about it, you lose, Alberich.
When Qiong Xing asked Cari what he wanted, he said rice, so he plated it together with his own portion.
"Now it’s Cari’s turn. Please sprinkle as much cheese as you like on top."
"A lot?"
When he told him that he could add plenty, s
he happily covered it with a generous amount of cheese.
With that, the preparation was complete.
"Now it’s Alberich’s turn. I’d like you to lightly burn the surface of what everyone has made, just enough to give it some browning."
The problem when making doria had been the oven.
Of course, there was no such convenient thing here, so it was impossible to brown just the surface.
Even if they tried to bake it in a kiln, they didn’t have heat-resistant dishes, so once it went in, everything would end up burning.
While Qiong Xing had been wondering what to do, Alberich had appeared.
Although his specialty was dark magic, he said he could use a little fire magic as well, so Qiong Xing decided to ask for his help.
Alberich seemed slightly exasperated that his abilities would be used for something like this.
"Got it. But it’s dangerous, so stay back."
He warned everyone who was trying to get closer out of curiosity.
Then, after muttering something under his breath, the flames began to burst from Alberich’s hand.
When asked if it was hot, he said it was fine for the person controlling it, but of course it would harm anyone else, so Qiong Xing made sure Cari stayed well away.
As the cheese sizzled and released a wonderful smell, the sound of someone’s stomach growling could be heard, but no one said anything.
They were probably all feeling the same.
"It smells really good."
"It does. Freshly made food tastes best, so please start eating as soon as yours is ready."
Since it would take time for everything to finish, Qiong Xing suggested this and everyone happily carried their plates toward the dining hall.
"Be careful, it’s hot when freshly made."
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"So seriously, what is this?"
Alberich who kept browning the dishes one after another wore an exasperated look, but the others did not seem to mind at all.
After saying thank you to Alberich, they happily carried their plates and headed toward the dining hall.
"...Well then, this is the last one. Alberich, thank you for your hard work. Everyone was happy thanks to you."
"Well, it’s probably not the original use, but I’m glad if it helped. Ah... and... about the name, you can just call me Albe. You don’t need to call me Alberich."
After saying that with a slightly embarrassed look, Alberich picked up even the plates for Qiong Xing and Cari and quickly headed to the dining hall.
"...Then let’s go eat as well."
When Qiong Xing went to the dining hall with Cari, the members who had already finished eating happily told them how delicious it had been.
"Joa, you should try it too. But it’s hot, so please be careful when you eat."
"It’s delicious!"
"It’s hot! But it’s really good."
"Amazing."
Qiong Xing was glad they seemed pleased.
Elias seemed to have a sensitive tongue for heat, but he still ate it little by little.
It’s look like he was enjoying it.
"It’s so tasty!"
When Qiong Xing cooled some and served it to Cari, he ate it happily.
"This one is good too. Cari, say ahh."
"Ahh... it’s delicious!"
When he let him try the one made with bread, he smiled and said it was tasty.
Qiong Xing gently patted Albe on the back who looked relieved beside them.
The one Cari had just eaten was actually the one Albe had made.
Both Cari and Qiong Xing had only made theirs with rice and Albe had been about to do the same, but Qiong Xing had asked him to switch to bread.
No matter who made it, the taste would not differ much, but when it comes to someone important, one would want them to eat what they made themselves.
Albe still did not seem to have the courage to say that he made it, but seeing Cari eat it happily made him look pleased.
