After all, going to fight Darius at this time would be like throwing an egg against a rock.
Not only would they be unable to defeat their opponent, but they might even cause the Boreas family itself to be destroyed.
Even so, Shirou could not completely let go of Darius's existence. He secretly resolved to spend a lot of time trying to eliminate Darius.
Even if it takes a long time to prepare, he will not stop.
Because this is the justice he has chosen.
……
After undergoing treatment for more than half a month (although he had long since recovered), Shirou finally received a full diagnosis from the healer, confirming that he had no injuries and no aftereffects.
The Boreas family breathed a sigh of relief and stopped forcing Shirou to take care of him.
Just as Shirou thought he could finally breathe a sigh of relief and welcome peaceful days, his room door was suddenly opened, and an energetic old man barged in.
Shirou, you're all better now!
The visitor was undoubtedly Sauros.
After the old man, who never controlled his volume, entered the room, he reached out and grabbed Shirou's head, then roughly rubbed it.
Although he was completely unceremonious, this very attitude showed that Shirou's status in the old man's heart had risen further, and he was now a complete family member.
"Yes, it's almost done."
"Good good!"
Seeing Shirou's fully recovered body, the old man said "good" three times and laughed heartily, "This time, thanks to you for saving Alice, whatever reward you want, I will definitely grant it!"
Shirou then realized why Sauros had rushed to find him.
The other party originally intended to reward him.
However, Shirou is not the kind of person who cares about profit, nor does he need any material possessions to reward himself. But judging from the way Sauros looks, it is clear that the other party will not give up easily.
Left with no other option, Shirou could only stall for time, saying, "I haven't decided what reward I want yet. Could you wait until I've thought about it before you speak?"
"of course can!"
Without hesitation, Sauros replied, "You are the one who saved my granddaughter, so there's no need for any reservations!"
"Okay, okay."
Shirou gradually got used to Sauros's loud and boisterous speaking style. After all, a certain person he knew before, Fujimura Taiga, who was like an older sister to him, often spoke in a similar manner.
Shirou adapted without much trouble.
"Shirou!"
Shoros suddenly became serious again. "I have a favor to ask of you."
"Please?"
Shirou was momentarily confused, not expecting the lord of the Fetoa territory to have any request of him.
Shaoluos clapped his hands vigorously and then looked towards the door in the distance.
While Shirou was still confused, the next second he saw an incredible scene through the door of the room: a red-haired girl dressed in a maid outfit with animal ears on her head walked in from outside with her head down.
"This, this is..."
"Alice!"
While Shirou was still in a daze, Zoro spoke up aggressively: "What are you supposed to do now?! Have you forgotten what I told you before?!"
Shaolus's voice was very loud.
Shirou even felt that his eardrums would rupture.
This old man really doesn't like to lower his voice at all.
As Shirou sighed inwardly, he noticed that Alice had already raised her head at Sauros's request.
The girl's face was flushed red as she glared fiercely at Shirou, her expression filled with anger and humiliation.
But with Shoros there, she dared not resist under any circumstances, and could only speak in a coquettish voice that was completely unlike her usual self: "Please...please..."
"Is this the attitude you should use when asking someone for a favor?!"
Sholos seemed very dissatisfied with Alice's reaction and roared loudly.
Upon hearing this, Alice seemed to have given up all hope. She grabbed her fiery red hair from the roots and tied it into two braids on the side of her head, making it look like twin ponytails.
Then, the maid with animal ears and twin tails, looking almost like a completely different person, cheerfully said, "Please, please teach Alice swordsmanship, meow☆"
"???"
Shirou was completely stunned by this truly mind-blowing scene, and it took him a long time to recover.
Is this some kind of prank?
Although she wanted to think that way, the people of the Boreas clan seemed to approve of Alice's actions.
Without a doubt, everyone in this family has some serious mental illness!
Chapter 113 Shirou's Cooking.
Although the Boreas family has a strange family tradition, Shirou really wanted to complain about what kind of family values they had, but right now, the most important thing for him was that Alice was finally willing to learn swordsmanship from him.
In this way, Shirou will also be able to learn the later stages of the Sword God Style from Kyrie Il.
Everything is finally back on track.
However, while it was supposed to be on the right track, it was actually in trouble from the very beginning.
After all, forcing Alice to make that expression and make that request to learn swordsmanship was a huge humiliation for her.
At this moment, although she tried her best to keep smiling because of the presence of Sauros, that smile actually made Shirou feel almost terrified.
A smile played on his lips, but there was no smile in his eyes; it was the look of a predator.
"Please teach me swordsmanship, Shirou-sensei, meow☆"
Stop using that strange tone of voice.
Shirou really wanted to say that, but because the people from the Boreas family around him all seemed to think it was perfectly normal, and even praised Alice, he couldn't say a word.
Although the people around her were very enthusiastic and thought Alice's approach was excellent.
But Alice herself made it clear that she did not give this feedback.
Look at Alice's expression now; she's probably 80% angry and 20% humiliated.
Not only was his face flushed with anger, but it also seemed as if he would have already punched him if they weren't in this situation.
Shirou even suspected that the level of disgust he received from the other person had increased to a new level.
How are we going to live like this?
Shirou sighed inwardly.
Meanwhile, Sauros was so happy his face fell, and he laughed loudly, "Oh, little Alice is so cute, of course you'll say yes, right, Shirou?"
"I agree."
At this moment, Shirou simply couldn't bring himself to refuse.
Especially since Alice was looking at him with a fierce gaze that seemed to say, "If I've done all this and you still refuse, I'll beat you to death."
There's absolutely no way out now.
"Why is it done this way?"
After agreeing to be taught swordsmanship, Shirou couldn't stand it any longer and raised a question.
The maid beside her chimed in, "The male heirs of the Boreas family all have a great fondness for beastmen. This was a plus when they hired Lord Kyrie, so when educating Miss Alice, they also hope that she can show more of a beastman's demeanor to attract his favor."
Sure enough, this family is very abnormal!
Although Shirou had expected it, he still didn't expect these nobles to be so perverted.
Although Shirou had mixed feelings, the fact that he was willing to accept Alice and teach her swordsmanship was confirmed in this absurd development.
The entire Boreas family came to celebrate and even planned to hold a banquet.
However, the banquet did not begin smoothly.
As luck would have it, the castle's head chef took sick leave, and the substitute chef was only capable of preparing home-style dishes and lacked the skills to host banquets.
This result undoubtedly disappointed Sauros greatly. He even wanted to go directly to the city and hire a famous chef to cook for him.
Such reckless actions were undoubtedly stopped by the rest of the Boreas family, since even if they went into the city to find someone, there wouldn't be enough time to complete the banquet if they started preparing now.
"How about I cook?"
Seeing how things were developing, Shirou couldn't help but speak up.
He had actually had the idea of cooking at Bereas Castle for a long time, but firstly, he was an outsider, and secondly, the Bereas family was a noble family with all sorts of strict rules. This meant that even if Shirou had this idea, he could only think about it in his heart and could not bring it up on his own initiative.
This time, however, Shirou had already integrated into the Boreas family through the kidnapping incident, and since they were short of a chef, he simply volunteered and wanted to show off his culinary skills after a long time.
"How does this work?"
As expected, Zoro immediately rejected Shirou's request.
He didn't think Shirou was capable of making decent food, and it was impossible for him to do something that only servants would do.
Shirou saw through Shoros's thoughts and had anticipated them, so he took the initiative to speak up: "Master Shoros, cooking is not a job that only servants can do. In fact, in most commoner families, cooking is an important part of strengthening relationships and enhancing the family atmosphere. Normally it would be fine, but since we happen to be short of a chef, why don't you let me give it a try?"
"This……"
Upon hearing Shirou's words, Zoro's furrowed brows relaxed slightly.
However, his attitude remained primarily skeptical.
After all, Shirou looks too young and doesn't seem like an experienced chef at all. Letting him prepare for the banquet might embarrass him.
Shoros now treats Shirou like his own grandson, showing him great care.
Seeing the situation was somewhat deadlocked, Philip couldn't help but step forward and say, "Father, why don't you let Shirou give it a try? Although Paul has been kicked out of the family and severed ties, he still has the blood of the Greira family. As his son, Shirou is naturally a member of the Greira family. So, having him cook for us is not a problem. Even if it's not delicious, it's still a good idea to improve family relations."
Philip was always a gifted talker.
With just a few words, he gradually changed the mind of the stubborn old man, making him agree and nod.
Shirou was thus given the opportunity to enter the Bereas family's kitchen.
"……stare"
As Shirou prepared to head to the kitchen to cook, he noticed Alice watching him cautiously from the side.
For Alice, although Shirou had saved her from Thomas before, that did not completely change her preconceived notions about Shirou. In addition, Sauros forced her to do such a shameful thing to Shirou this time, so Alice's complaints about Shirou could be said to have reached the sky.
If it weren't for her encounter with Emiya that night, she would never have taken the initiative to suggest learning swordsmanship from Shirou.
But because of her promise to Emiya, even though Alice was full of resentment, she could only grit her teeth and force herself to learn swordsmanship from this annoying guy.
As a result, although Alice became Shirou's apprentice on the surface, she was still filled with resentment in her heart.
Aside from swordsmanship, she had no desire to have any interaction with Shirou, let alone eat his cooking.
Only a dog would eat that kind of stuff!
Alice made up her mind that she would never eat a single bite of Shirou's cooking!
Shirou was unaware of Alice's thoughts. He simply followed the butler to the kitchen in Boreas and deeply felt the immense wealth and influence of the powerful family.
Even the kitchen, as the Boreas family built, was quite elaborate.
All sorts of tools and materials were laid out inside, and various ingredients that were rarely seen in this era were spread out as if they were free.
The moment Shirou stepped into the kitchen, he felt as if he were an adventurer who had stumbled into a treasure trove, and he felt extremely satisfied.
However, even with such a treasure trove of ingredients, Shirou had no intention of using the Boreas family's ingredients to prepare a grand meal.
While the sheer quantity of ingredients and tools here is outrageous—even the largest fresh food supermarket Shirou ever visited in his life probably didn't have as many items—this place certainly does.
But Shirou has always adhered to only one principle when cooking: the chef's heart is above all else!
For the Boreas family, delicacies from land and sea are probably already something they've grown tired of, and rare ingredients are not uncommon for them.
In addition, the original chef of the Boreas family was highly skilled, and Shirou had even planned to ask that old chef to discuss cooking techniques.
Therefore, Shirou didn't feel the need to prepare any elaborate dishes.
Instead, Shirou intends to make the simplest and most basic home-style dishes.
