V1 Chapter 4.3

“Heey, nee-chan! If you have bacon then I want that in a steak style however you cook it! Sandwiches ain’t enough, I get hungry too quick!” Chise-san’s voice resonated within the shop, while he was sitting in the sofa with one of his leg up. I headed towards the table seat.

“Chise, use respect” Boss-san with his low toned voice, which made Chise shudder profusely*. Chise then slowly brought down his leg from the sofa and opened his mouth while shaking.

“T-t-ten.. tenchou…?” The grown adult wolf turned 180 degrees around into a scared puppy. I desperately try to hold back my laughter.

“I currently have bacon block in stock, would you like it to be served in steak style?”

“…Y-yes please”

Moving my gaze from Chise-san to Ryuse-san, he replied to me while licking his left hand.

“Theen, I’m having that bacon steak too” He’s like a cat grooming his fur.. Wait, not that..

“Umm, are you perhaps hurt?”

“It’s not my blood though”

“….Should I bring over a towel?”

“Not needing it. It’s dried up already, I don’t wanna dirty your towel” Which almost made my imagine things, but let’s not. I’m more worried about Ryuse-san being dirty than the shop. Since his pure white fur is too beautiful.

“Heeey~ Nee-cha, I mean, Tenchou, please hurry up!” Chise-san who’s on his hunger limit, fluttering his tail around.

While thinking of how pleasant it is seeing him do that, I turned around towards the green jackal, Sena-san, to see that he has fell asleep. It seems he is really exhausted.

“Let him sleep. He’ll order later on” Since Boss-san said so, I left Sena-san sleep as he did.

Afterwards, Boss-san too ordered a bacon steak, and to bring over the same drinks as yesterday. Returning back to the kitchen, I suddenly realized something.

“Umm… Is garlic alright?”

“Hah?! We’re not monsters!!” Chise-san in an irritated voice while leaning his chin on the table.

In my previous world, garlic is not only used as an food ingredient, but also to ward off evil. And similarly in this world, it is used to ward off evil as well. That’s why it seems that Chise-san felt insulted but–

“Umm, that’s not what I meant. Since you disliked the smell of the cologne used by the previous customer, I thought of how the smell of garlic would bother you”

“I hate that, but garlic’s fine.”

“Understood, please forgive my rudeness”

After taking a bow, I headed to the counter before going back to the kitchen. Then, from the lower drawer, I took out a deodorizer pack since the smell of the cologne just now may have lingered and left it beside the sandglass.

Similar to yesterday, I served the drink first before preparing the steak. I then cut the bacon block and since the bacon block has already been salted, I held back in seasoning it with just slightly adding some pepper and rosemary.

Next, I sliced some garlic and fried it in a previously heated pan with olive oil. Slowly cooking it in low heat until the smell of the olive oil seeps out and place the bacon in. While paying attention to its doneness, I also prepared salads by the side. Here, I added the same amount (of vegetables) as in sandwiches.

And so, a simple bacon steak is completed.

Bringing it over to the table, “Wooo! Coool!” Chise-san while fiercely swaying his tail.
