Shirou Emiya stands on the Terra continent

After finishing the conversation with Is, Emiya began to prepare for today's work.

Because he had promised Penguin Logistics a few days ago to make desserts, but he himself didn't know how to make many desserts, and the few he knew were almost exploited by them, especially a creature whose staple food was almost sweets.

It's only been a month.

So Emiya also studies some of Longmen's desserts in his spare time.

I did some research on apple pie, but in order to avoid being asked for apple pie by Archangel every day, Emiya didn't plan to make it right away.

At least on some special days, like birthdays or something.

After going to the supermarket, Emiya looked at the discounted products and selected ingredients for tonight's dinner and tomorrow's breakfast, as well as the discounted milk and whipped cream, and also picked up some gelatin sheets.

Emiya planned to make panna cotta, a very simple dessert that he saw on his phone.

Bringing all the ingredients back to the dormitory, Emiya did not process the ingredients first, but instead processed the jelly first.

Because the milk jelly needs to be refrigerated for a while to solidify.

The ingredients are the fresh milk and whipped cream that I just bought, as well as gelatin sheets, and the soul seasoning of the Rutlanders - sugar.

"I remember soaking the gelatin sheets in ice water until soft..."

Emiya took a small bowl and put drinking water in it, then cut about 15 grams of gelatin into small pieces and put them in the bowl, then added ice cubes.

If there were no ice cubes, you could see the gelatin sheets disappearing into the room temperature water. Emiya had confirmed this from the video.

"Then pour the fresh milk, whipped cream and sugar into the pot and heat it up, but it seems like it won't boil."

Pour 480 grams of fresh milk, 480 grams of light cream and 40 grams of sugar into a pot and heat them. Because it cannot be allowed to boil, Emiya uses a low heat.

"When you feel that the sugar has dissolved, squeeze the gelatin sheets and throw them in. Then stir evenly and it is ready to serve."

While recalling the instructions in the video, Emiya operated it.

Pour the evenly stirred or liquid jelly into a prepared container, let it cool and refrigerate to solidify, and you can enjoy it after dinner in the evening.

Recently, Emiya has been reducing the amount of main courses, and giving some fruit after meals, and occasionally some dessert like today.

He felt that Angelica was getting a little fat. Compared to Croissant and Texas who exercised a lot every day and had no time to restrain themselves, Angelica ate almost as much as he could, eating whatever was available.

Almost turning into a fat angel.

So Emiya is slowly adjusting the portion size of each meal, and we will have to wait and see the results.

As Emiya prepared dinner, several people from Penguin Logistics were on standby in the living room. They helped Emiya put dinner on the table and quickly finished it.

"Is contacted me this afternoon and said that he had a long-distance trip to take place in the next two days. He asked us to show you what you should pay attention to when taking a long-distance trip tomorrow."

Texas got straight to the point after finishing his meal.

They don't talk about serious things during dinner because it can easily affect their appetite.

"So soon? This morning, Is asked me to find some time to ask you guys first."

Emiya was a bit surprised that this long-distance mission came so suddenly, as he had thought he would have to wait for a while.

"Well, there happens to be one that needs to be delivered to Ursus. If it's fast, it will only take a day or two."

In order to prevent Emiya from not knowing where Ursus is, Texas took out his mobile phone, opened the map and asked Emiya to compare.

The location of Ursus is roughly above the Dragon Gate, but it is ridiculously large. However, Texas has slightly marked the location to be delivered, which is probably just at the border of Ursus, very close to the Dragon Gate.

"Ursus."

My knowledge of Ursus Emiya is still limited to books and some statements from other people.

Overall it is very powerful, but seems to be very cruel to the infected.

But Emiya had never seen it with his own eyes, and at most he had a bad impression of Ursus.

Maybe even lower than the impression I have of Archer?

"Don't worry, we are only going to the border village and will not go deep into Ursus."

Seeing Emiya's solemn expression, Sora suddenly remembered that this seemed to be the first time that Emiya was going to go somewhere outside of Longmen.

The news about Ursus outside doesn't seem to be very good, so it is not a good choice for the first time going out.

"We are following legitimate channels. As long as we don't go too far, we won't come into conflict with the Ursus officials."

The Archangel beside him added.

"Well, provided you don't go too far."

Recalling past experiences, Croissant emphasized it particularly.

"Don't bother with them. Anyway, we'll buy some supplies tomorrow, and by the way, tell you what to be careful about when you go out."

Texas felt that Exia and Croissant were making things worse, especially the bread man who gave them a last hurrah.

"No problem, I'll make time tomorrow."

Shirou didn't pay much attention to what the two said. After all, what he was thinking was completely different from what they were saying.

Just after hearing what they said, the things that he was not worried about before became worrying. In order to change his mindset, Emiya went to get the jelly that he made at noon.

"Milky jelly?"

As someone who had seen countless desserts, Archangel Exiah could tell at a glance what kind of dessert Emiya was holding in his hand.

"Have you learned a new dessert? Emiya, you learn pretty fast."

Kong, who was holding the jelly, first used a small spoon to scoop out a small piece, and then watched the jelly swaying on the spoon.

It's quite healing. Kong has seen videos of things shaking like this before, but they looked like animals.

But a piece like this is also good. After all, the production process of animal shapes is too complicated. It would be difficult to make it without a certain level of understanding and tools.

"Emiya, how did you come up with the idea of ​​making jelly?"

Angel took a bite and ate it directly. The characteristic of milk jelly is that it has a very strong milk flavor and tastes very similar to pudding. Although it is not that sweet, the taste is just right when paired with milk.

"Because milk is on sale, and I saw milk jelly a while ago, and it's pretty easy to make, so I gave it a try."

Discount expert Emiya said that the process of making milk jelly is almost not difficult. It can be easily completed by ensuring a few points. The only utensils used are pots and bowls.

“…As expected of you.”

Upon learning that Emiya even had to choose discounted items to make desserts, Croissant was filled with admiration.

Normal people would go shopping for what they want to eat, but Emiya would first look at what is available and then think about what to make.

But she is also responsible for food, which is also good. At least there are desserts of different flavors every day, unlike before when Angel would only bring back apple pie.

55 Seat belt

On the day of departure, Penguin Logistics Dormitory.

"Emiya! Have you seen what I bought yesterday?"

Next to a large van, several people from Penguin Logistics were packing things they would need for going out.

The goods to be delivered, tents, sleeping bags, dry food, weapons, shields, and the snacks and biscuits that I bought specially yesterday...

Among them, snack biscuits account for a large part, and Pocky accounts for the vast majority.

While stuffing things into the car, Angelica noticed that the apple pie she specially bought yesterday was not in it, so she asked Emiya.

"In the fridge?"

Emiya thought about what Exiah bought yesterday. It should be only apple pie. If it was bought yesterday, it should be in the refrigerator.

"Oh! I'll get it right away."

Upon learning that his favorite apple pie was still in the refrigerator, the Angel rushed upstairs to get it.

"Sister Neng, you're such a jerk. You have to bring apple pie with you when you go out at a time like this."

Croissant, who was carrying his hammer and shield, complained.

"She is an Angel after all. Apple pie is spiritual food to her."

Kong, who was sorting things inside the car, leaned his head out and said.

Anyone can see that Angel's love for apple pie.

"But eating too much isn't healthy. So what about Texas?"

After chatting with the two of them for a while, Emiya remembered that he hadn't seen Texas for a while.

"Texas is in the driver's seat. After all, the boss brought this car over these two days, and Texas needs to get familiar with the configuration first."

Speaking of Texas, Sora pointed to the driver's seat and said.

After hearing what Sora said, Emiya also noticed Texas in the driver's seat of the van.

Rather than getting familiar with the new car, Texas seemed more excited about having a new car to drive.

Emiya had only seen Texas with his eyes shining and his face full of joy before, when he helped him fix his headphones.

How should I put it... Emiya always feels that Texas is the kind of person who doesn't usually show his inner emotions on his face. He usually has a cold expression, and only when he encounters specific things will his facial expression change, or his ears and tail will wag happily.

Rather than being cold, he is the type of person who doesn't have many thoughts?

Emiya thought about Texas' past behavior.

"By the way, Emiya, don't you have a thick coat?"

After finishing organizing most of his things, Sora asked Emiya.

"Thick coat? No, I only have this one."

Emiya pulled the collar of the Penguin Logistics jacket he was wearing. After all, the climate in Lungmen was quite warm for him when he came here, and as far as he knew, it was spring in Lungmen now, so he did not buy a jacket.

"I knew it. Fortunately, I asked Is to prepare. Although Longmen is warm now, Ursus is still quite cold. It may even be snowing."

Sora gave an expression that said, "I knew it," and took out a coat that looked quite heavy from a box nearby and handed it to Emiya.

“Is the temperature difference so big?”

After taking the thick coat, Emiya took a quick look at it.

The coat seemed to have been taken care of, which was great for Emiya. At least it could be worn directly. If such new clothes were not washed and sorted, Emiya would not dare to wear them directly.

Next, the jacket also has the black and white color scheme that Penguin Logistics likes, as well as a Penguin Logistics logo.

Finally... it’s really thick. Emiya hasn’t worn such a thick coat in a long time.

"Well, it's safe to take it with you. Remember to put it in the trunk later."

After stuffing the things he was going to deliver in there, Sora reminded Emiya to remember to put his coat in the trunk.

Shirou nodded, then put it on a little bit. It was a little big and might not be suitable for battle, but it should be very warm for daily use.

After putting it on, Emiya felt a little hot, so he quickly took off his coat, folded it and put it in the trunk.

"Is everything sorted?"

Immersed in the joy of driving a new car, Texas stuck his head out of the window and asked his teammates.

She can't wait to drive this new car! It's the latest model! The boss is so generous!

"Almost done, just waiting for Nou-san to bring her apple pie, where are you going to sit, Emiya?"

Croissant quickly checked the things in the trunk and confirmed that he had taken everything he needed, except for the Angel.

In the past, four of us always went out together, so the seats were fixed. But today, there was one more person, Emiya, so the seats had to be arranged separately.

"Um...passenger seat?"

After thinking about it, Emiya felt that the front passenger seat might be better. He wouldn't have to squeeze in the back seat with other people. In the past, he was squeezed in the middle by Sora and Croissant. It was okay for short trips, but he would definitely feel suffocated if he sat like this for long trips.

After all, he is still a teenager in adolescence, so it is reasonable for him to have a little trouble, right?

"The passenger seat is not allowed. That person is responsible for assisting the driver. Just sit in the back."

Croissant's words ruthlessly shattered Emiya's idea of ​​sitting in the passenger seat.

"Then let's go by the window."

Emiya rubbed his aching head. Since the passenger seat wasn't available, he had to at least sit by the window.

Although other people didn't care, he didn't want to die socially in Penguin Logistics. This group of people hardly treated him as a boy.

"Okay, Sora, you sit in the middle."
