82 – Spit fire

“Yeah, is that right? You didn’t hear me wrong.”

“How-wah-? uh, that can’t be… … ???”

I ignored Raylin’s reaction and continued cleaning.

Today’s core ingredient, drill apple.

ㅡBlah blah… ! widely! widely! widely!

The thick skin peels off with difficulty.

My esophagus didn’t even go well.

Still, I was finally able to meet the golden flesh.

‘Isn’t there anything particularly difficult if you just peel off the skin somehow?’

ㅡsqueak, clap… !

It was beautifully divided into equal parts in a fan shape.

It is more sturdy than expected and holds its shape well.

Cut it so that it fits in one bite and you’re done.

The flesh was crisp like an apple, so it wasn’t difficult to slice it.

ㅡCrunchy, crunchy!

After I trimmed all the drill apples,

I wanted to taste it one more time.

I was fooled by the pineapple-like shape and wondered if I had misunderstood the taste earlier.

‘Well… ! It’s almost like a pineapple! As long as it’s slightly acidic and strong.’

The sweet and sour juice fills the mouth with a crunchy texture. At the same time, a lot of saliva is secreted from the salivary glands. In addition, the rich fruit flavor fills up to the tip of the nose and gives a sweet finish.

It is definitely delicious enough to be called a specialty.

The taste of a tropical fruit resembling a pineapple.

But to think that this sweet and delicious thing has to be roasted… … .

Thinking of a drill apple that was about to be roasted to a golden brown made me feel depressed for some reason.

“… White kid? Do you really not know what pizza is?”

“yes? what does that mean… … ?”

“I’ve tried it a few times, but… ! There’s no way there’s fruit in pizza! Even if you think about it with common sense, isn’t that right?!”

Reirin, who had been watching blankly in silence, screamed in astonishment. In a voice that seemed unacceptable.

As expected, Hawaiian pizza does not exist in this world yet.

Don’t be astonished.

I understand that feeling well too.

But there was no immediate option other than this.

To satisfy that voracious taste of Bennettrick.

“I know what your sister wants to say. In fact, I don’t want to put this precious fruit on my pizza either.”

“But why… … ?!”

“I can’t help but satisfy Professor Bennetrick’s taste. You’re a gourmet, and I asked for something unusual from the start.”

right. I’m not wrong.

It’s just that Benedict’s appetite is unique.

That being said, I have no desire to curse Hawaiian pizza.

Like mint chocolate, it’s all just personal taste.

The person who enforces that taste is wrong. There is absolutely nothing wrong with food and personal taste.

I just do these things myself,

It’s just painful to make that one after another.

My heart was heavy that I had to make a strange combination of food with my own hands this time.

‘Maybe I’m poisoning this world… … ?’

Looking at Drill Apple, I get confused.

Mint chocolate is the same, I wonder if this is right.

But what? You have to live once.

And after all, it was all thanks to Raylin that I was able to think of pineapple pizza.

I don’t blame Raylin, but

Getting a drill apple was the starting point.

Besides, it was an idea I came up with after hearing about Bennettrick’s eating habits of spreading cream cheese on bread instead of a meal if it wasn’t satisfying.

Bread and cheese, and even a drill apple.

Hawaiian pizza comes to mind.

It was a perfectly normal idea generation process.

“Well, then why did you bring that meat? Could it be that you want to serve fruit and meat together?”

Raylin pointed to the unglazed T-bone steak she had received from the kitchen and asked in a worried voice.

“Well… Half right, half wrong.”

“What do you mean?”

“I also don’t want to mix that expensive meat with fruit. I want to write that separately.”

“Whoa… ? I didn’t understand. How are you posting them separately when you’re not posting them together?”

Raylin constantly tilts her head and asks a question.

It will be difficult to understand with only words.

“You’ll know when you see it.”

“I’m still curious… … !”

“I’m sorry, but I’m going to really focus now, okay? Sister Raylin?”

With the intention of quelling Raylin’s curiosity, I dared to ask her by adding her sister to her name. If you continue small talk, you will run out of time.

“uh… ? Ah, uh, yes… … . Heck, that’s just… nice to hear… … .”

Unlike the normally cheerful Fire Dragon, he becomes docile.

ㅡJurruk… … !

And that wasn’t all.

A sudden drop of nosebleed.

What did you think of while looking at me?

“uh? sister?”

“Oh, nothing! Training is intense these days… ! You, do what you were doing!”

Raylin hurriedly turned her head and wiped the blood from her nose. like it’s not a big deal.

‘Still, I’m glad I didn’t collapse while spouting nosebleeds like a fountain like before.’

ㅡ Tak Tak Tak!

ㅡsqueak, clap… !

After that, I focused only on material handling.

After cutting the drill apple generously,

The steak was also cut into cubes of the same size.

Things like sausages and tomatoes are already trimmed.

Now just put it on the dough and you’re done.

All that remained was an easy and simple task.

Of course, Dough had to prepare it himself.

‘Now the dough is the problem… … . Oh right! It just went well!’

I was wondering if I had to knead the dough again.

Reminds me of the wrong dough I made in the morning.

A dough made from wheat flour with nothing added.

ㅡBussleuk… !

“Didn’t it swell well during that time?”

When I checked the dough covered with paper wrapping paper, it came up like a giant steamed bun.

Calling it a blessing in disguise, it actually went well.

It was matured while going to a restaurant.

The amount of dough was quite large, so the burden of failure was less.

“Okay, take this off in moderation… … .”

ㅡChideok, Chideok! castings castings… !

I was in the cafe part-time job in the past,

I remembered the baking I learned over my shoulder.

I still remember the basic kneading process clearly.

—-Go and go… … .

Once the dough is rolled into a ball.

It should be about the size of your fist.

It’s smooth. So far there is no blockage.

It’s because the handling of the dough when making basic bread is almost the same up to this point.

‘By the way… … . How can I spread the dough evenly?’

If it’s basic bread, it ends here.

The rest is shaped by a loaf pan,

If you bake while maintaining the original form, it will be complete.

Bread with special shapes like pastries or croissants was not easy to make unless you were a skilled person.

The same goes for pizza dough.

ㅡChideok, Chideok! Back! hold on… … !

From the outside, it seems like you can just press it with your hands or roll it with a rolling pin.

Of course, if you make it roughly, you should be able to make it somehow. However, today was a day that should never be taken lightly.

Because the opponent was not a normal opponent.

‘Ha, isn’t this easier than I thought?’

I watched cooking videos I enjoyed watching as a hobby, replayed them in my brain, stretched the dough, and even clumsily turned it over my fingers using centrifugal force… … .

ㅡGee Iik… !

ㅡ Hairy!

The dough would often tear or slip out of your hands and fall to the ground.

It’s not going to be as easy as you think.

A prototype is never created.

The thickness is also different, so it is easy to tear.

Even though I was inexperienced in spreading the dough, it was more difficult to control as it kept sticking to my hands.

It’s good that I prepared a lot of dough at once to make a lot of biscuits, otherwise I would have wasted a lot of time remaking the dough.

“Once again… … .”

“Hey, white boy… ? it’s okay?”

Reirin, who had been watching this silently, cautiously intervened.

Even Reirin must have been worried about the repeated mistakes.

“yes. it’s okay! I still have enough dough… … .”

I replied with a shy smile and turned my back again. I tried to pretend nothing was wrong, but my crumpled expression didn’t straighten out as easily as pizza dough.

It must have been due to an unexpected crisis.

‘I can’t ask Raylin for help… … .’

Earlier, Raylin told me to help her, but I can’t ask the noble dragon to make some pizza dough for me.

But if you keep trying, you will definitely succeed.

ㅡBoo Woowook… !

This is another failure.

If it is too thick, the dough will tear in vain.

My will is also torn to pieces at the same time.

I wanted to just stretch it out and cut it into a circle, but then the chewy texture of the dough wouldn’t come out.

ㅡ Hairy… !

ㅡGee Iik!

ㅡToo-du-duduk… … !!

fail, fail again

This is already the 7th failure.

A series of failures in making dough gradually discourages him.

‘I thought I had a talent for baking… … . That’s not it. I’ve been lucky in the meantime.’

I must have been mistaken for a moment of success.

I have talent for baking and cooking, but damn.

Looking back, it was always trial and error.

Didn’t he make it a day in advance and make up for the lacking points and complete it? Even if I made one, I did my best with alertness.

But today I was pretty complacent.

Although I was putting in a lot of effort,

I’ve been overconfident in myself since yesterday.

I chose to sleep because I only knew how to make it through today.

It was because he let go of his tension after being intoxicated by his brief success.

“… … .”

Besides, there was not much dough left.

At most, two or three times the amount.

I don’t want to fail again, so I don’t have a hand.

The toppings of worry and worry fill my head excessively. Thanks to this, my head gets complicated and my body naturally stiffens.

“White kid? why are you like this?”

“… Can I do well in the remaining opportunities?”

“yes? what are you saying now… … ?”

“Whoa, if I fail again this time, I won’t have time to make the dough again… … .”

“White kid? Don’t think like that, start slowly… … .”

“Maybe I couldn’t do pizza with my skills in the first place—”

“stop! Until there-!!!”

“Le, Raylin sister?”

At the moment when I was thinking in a dejected voice that I could fail again, Raylin’s evil command suddenly hit my ear.

It sounded like he was scolding me severely.

It wasn’t a voice that had always been kind to me.

It was a voice telling me not to be weak and to come to my senses.

“The Shaolin I know… ! No, the albino is-! He was always a confident and bright kid! Such a low-spirited figure doesn’t suit me at all!”

Reirin yelled at me as if she didn’t like my broken will.

“… I know. But no matter how hard it is, it’s impossible with my current skills. look at this It is impossible to make just one dough—”

ㅡFurrr

It was a time when he muttered weak words in a momentary frustration.

“Hot, hot… … ?!”

Raylin suddenly spews hot flames from her mouth.

At first, I just thought it was emitting toward me.

But that didn’t happen.

Fortunately, the flames were directed towards the furnace.

ㅡ roaring roaring… … !!!

The breath emitted by Raylin sets the furnace on fire. The hot heat spreads to the kitchen in an instant.

It was to the point of indirectly heating my body.

“… Stop sounding impossible.”

“Ah, lady… … ?”

“Because it’s enough to just spit out ‘fire’ from the impossible!”

ㅡTitling!

[The communion target’s perk “Fire Dragon’s Heat” is activated!]
