I, Kousaka Kyousuke, the Knight of the Helping Table

"And then they beat us two into a mixed couples match? Thank you, I don't want to die yet."

Melissa made up her mind and suggested maliciously: "Just blame everything on Lancelot. It was that guy's fault from the beginning anyway. Anyway, as long as it is about the big sister, it is that guy's fault no matter what."

【What you said makes a lot of sense, I simply can't refute it. 】

Although Aguguiwen knew very well that what Mary said was completely nonsense, he found that he could not find any effective reason to deny her. What made Aguguiwen even more upset was that deep down in his heart he was still tempted by this proposal.

[Is this really the so-called "the closer you are to the red, the more red you are"? Have I been too close to this guy recently? ]

——————————————————————————————————————————————————— ————————————

"Ah-choo! Ugh...Ah-!"

"what happened to you?"

Lily stopped the motorcycle and looked back at the towed Lancelot - the guy had just sneezed.

Lancelot sniffed his nose, "It seems someone was saying something bad about me just now."

"Are you sure you're not sick? After all, in this environment..." Lily looked around and said with some concern, "It would be troublesome if you caught a cold..."

"..."

[If you think it will be troublesome, don't drive here! ]

Lancelot looked at the endless ice field in front of him and the white bear not far away that was smiling at him with ill intentions. He couldn't figure out how Lily brought him here. Didn't we just say we were going to travel around Japan? Although there are bears in Hokkaido, they are clearly breasts, okay? They are completely different species from the white bear in front of him! (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

"My king, I want to ask, why are we here?"

"I'm sorry, Sir Lancelot." Lily scratched her head embarrassedly, "I don't know... I think I'm lost."

"How on earth did you manage to get lost in the Arctic Circle? You were riding a motorcycle!!"

Lancelot twisted his body to vent his dissatisfaction to Lily. Anyway, the situation couldn't get any worse, so Lancelot simply gave up.

Lily gave Lancelot a thumbs up and encouraged him with a smile: "Sir Lancelot, you must know that everything is possible!"

"I don't believe you!"

Lily suddenly pointed to the sky and shouted in surprise: "Look! It's the Aurora!"

"Don't think you can get away with it like this! Where is the aurora at this time?" Lancelot felt his nose itchy, and he sneezed again, "Ah-choo! Damn it, I definitely have a cold. King, please leave here quickly!"

"Oh well."

Lily restarted the locomotive and dragged Lancelot forward. However, the two guys who had already lost their way did not notice that they were not heading south.

Apparently, Lancelot would have to skate on the ice for some time.

PS: I am still in a sick state, dizzy, weak limbs, vomiting and acid reflux. Based on my experience of being sick for many years, I think it is probably acute enteritis again. Let's rest for a while. _(:з」∠)_

Chapter 84: Rie: It’s time for dinner~

"Did anything good happen today?"

Kyosuke was a little surprised when he looked at the table full of food.

The most eye-catching thing on the table was two small bowls, one of which was filled with vegetable salad and the other with white rice, but Kyosuke knew it was vinegar rice for sushi from the slightly sour smell he could smell. Apart from these two particularly eye-catching bowls, the rest of the table was filled with plates of side dishes: shredded cucumbers and egg skins, beef mixed with seasonings, shrimps that had been peeled, and various sashimi that were cut to the right thickness.

Rie smiled as if it was a matter of course and said, "Of course it's to celebrate Kyousuke and Mashu-chan coming to stay at my house! In order to prepare these things, I left school early in the afternoon to go home and prepare these things."

"When I checked in yesterday, you served me ordinary home-cooked meals..."

Kyosuke felt a little hurt, and he squatted in the corner and drew circles in frustration. Although he never had any intention of competing with others, this kind of differential treatment still made him a little frustrated.

"Well..." Rie saw that Kyosuke was in a depressed mood and quickly explained with excitement, "That's because when Yumiko told me yesterday that Kyosuke was coming, it was already very late. If it was earlier..."

"No, thank you very much anyway."

Kyousuke felt a little embarrassed for being so upset.

"Really? Then eat more."

"Ah."

Kyousuke nodded and sat directly in his seat.

"this is……"

Mashu pointed at the food on the table and hesitated.

"Hand-rolled sushi~" Rie said proudly with her arms open, introducing the fruits of her labor, "I personally select my favorite ingredients and roll them up to eat. It's fun to make and delicious to eat. There's no better food than this. This is my favorite family banquet dish in Japan~"

"In Japan?"

Mashu raised her eyebrows.

[Oh no, I haven’t made hand-rolled sushi in a while. I’m so excited…]

"Ah... maybe you heard it wrong..."

Rie laughed it off and tried to get away with it.

[This woman, doesn't she have any conspiracy? ]

Mashu was reluctant to sit down. She narrowed her eyes and stared at Rie suspiciously.

stare----

"That's annoying, Mashu-chan." Rie waved her hands to try to hide her embarrassment, "Sister, is there something on my face?"

"No, it just feels a little weird."

Mashu sighed. After the conversation last night, she was wary of Rie.

"That's annoying, Mashu-chan. Please sit down and eat."

"Um……"

"What are you doing? Sit down and eat, mom makes the best nigiri!"

Seeing that Mashu was still hesitant, Yumiko quickly pulled Mashu to her seat.

"That's right... (chewing) The taste is just as good as Yu's chef's... (chewing) Hmm... delicious..."

"I was just about to ask, why are you here?"

Kyosuke's eyebrows twitched and he pointed at Nero who kept stuffing sushi into his mouth.

"Wu Na's one-man show..."

Nero, with his mouth full of food, responded to Kyosuke vaguely.

"Swallow it before you speak!"

Nero swallowed the food as quickly as possible. "Sister Lihui invited me. She said there would be delicious food tonight, so I came."

While answering Kyosuke's questions, Nero's hands never stopped. With her dexterous hands, she made another sushi roll the moment she finished speaking and couldn't wait to put it into her mouth.

"You are a guest after all, the host didn't do anything..."

Kyosuke shook his head helplessly. Facing Nero who had become a complete foodie, he didn't have any better solution.

"Well, just eat." Rie didn't blame Nero for his actions. For her, the best compliment to her as a chef was that diners liked her work.

"That's right, that's right. Kyousuke, Mashu, you two should eat quickly, it's really delicious~"

Yumiko followed Nero's footsteps and rolled a sushi and stuffed it into her mouth.

"Mmm - delicious~"

Kyosuke laughed softly as he looked at Yumiko, who was smiling happily. He signaled Mashu with his eyes to join in, and then he picked up a piece of seaweed himself.

At first, Kyosuke planned to make a beautiful tuna sushi roll, but he obviously overestimated his own skills, and he couldn't make a sushi roll with his clumsy hands. Every time, the vegetables would slip out or the vinegar rice would fall on the table because he squeezed the seaweed too hard.

"Um……"

[I didn’t expect this to be so difficult. I thought it was as easy as making spring rolls…]

After once again stuffing the vinegar rice that fell on the table directly into his mouth, the ruthless Kyosuke no longer cared about the appearance and roughly stuffed the rice and vegetables into the seaweed, kneaded them into a ball, and stuffed it into his mouth.

"(chewing) Hmm...delicious..."

Looking at Kyosuke's funny appearance as a young boy, Rie felt both angry and amused.

"Kyosuke...are you eating rice balls?"

Kyousuke licked the rice on his palm and said nonchalantly, "It's okay. There's no difference in essence anyway."

"Oh hoo..."

Rie felt that her dignity as a chef was challenged, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes.

"It seems that Kyousuke is very worthy of education. Let me teach you what real nigiri sushi is."

"what?"

Kyosuke, who had just eaten another homemade rice ball, was stunned, his hand just raised in the air and stopped at Li.

"That won't work. Come, let me teach you." Rie picked up a piece of seaweed and pointed at Kyosuke, "Open your hands."

"Oh……"

Rie suddenly exuded an irresistible aura, and Kyosuke didn't even have the thought of resisting. He obediently stretched out his hand and let Rie put the seaweed on his palm.

"Next is vinegar rice."

"Okay." Kyosuke used the rice spoon in the vinegar rice bowl to scoop some vinegar rice and put it on the seaweed, but Rie slapped it down with her hand.

"That's too much. If you keep doing this, the rice will overflow. Come on, this is enough."

As Rie said this, she held Kyosuke's hand and taught him how to put the right amount of vinegar rice on the seaweed.

"Next is the side dishes... Put the cucumber and egg shreds first, then the main dish... Let's choose shrimp and squid this time... Don't be too greedy, only when the rice and vegetables reach a perfect ratio can it be the most delicious..."

As Rie spoke, she controlled Kyosuke to put things in place. Kyosuke followed Rie's instructions like a puppet and placed the ingredients for the sushi rolls.

"Hmm...alright. Kyousuke, try it."

Finally, Rie fiddled with Kyosuke's fingers to help him roll the sushi.

"Hmm... delicious."

"Right? Sister, this is the best experience~" After seeing Kyosuke finish the sushi roll in two or three bites, Rie took out another piece of seaweed, "Come on, let's try the sea bream."
