Knights, Let’s Smash Them

53 – The majesty of the cuisine of Count Rupel, where Judge Arthur is overturned and the Duke of Hebron sheds tears. ＞

‘Look through the dragon’s eyes.’

I opened my eyes and watched the night market. Originally, festivals do not always have pleasant events.

Since there are so many different people from different regions, this kind of accident often happens.

Crimes against the socially underprivileged are also rampant.

If you commit a crime and jump out, it’s impossible to catch it with the detective power of this world unless you arrest it on the spot.

From noble mtl dot com.

There must be a CSI here, there must be a profiler.

This was also the reason why they called in the 4th Corps of Rupel, which was stationed near Tippen Village, to reinforce Petaronto’s security.

As this is the first festival, there are many shortcomings, but shouldn’t we at least stop the crime?

It’s a territory that hasn’t been recognized yet, so we need to raise awareness this time.

An enraged constable might cast a rebuke.

Actually, that’s even scarier. It’s an unrivaled negative impression among the retainers, but with the enforcement of this festival, it’s even more negative.

If this had been a yandere reunion, I would have been a drummer long ago and dipped in Lake Melbourne over there.

It was around the time that I was faithfully fulfilling the role of a biological CCTV.

“Guards! Watch!!”

A group of men waved their hands. The man in the robe hurriedly hid something in front of him.

‘Dagger?’

Unfortunately, I couldn’t escape my Hawkeye. He’s a man with a weapon, so he’s going to be purged!

“There!! What a fuss!!”

As I quickly head to the scene with my sword, the assailant runs away in amazement. It was an incredibly quick move.

The moment I saw that movement.

I thought I should never let go of that person. Because I definitely felt the danger.

“Lons!! Before! Hold the robe in front!!”

“Robe?!”

Lonz, who was controlling the entrance to the night market, immediately caught up with him, but the assailant avoided that level of movement as if it were funny and fell into the alley next door.

But unfortunately it’s a dead end there, kid.

I chased after the assailant with Lonz. Sure enough, the stranger at the dead end was stamping his feet as if in trouble.

“Question and answer dance! Danger removed!!”

Leave behind Lonz, who was spouting lines like a fighting machine.

I started negotiating first.

“Please identify yourself. Although we did not separately control weapons for self-defense. Taking out a weapon in the night market is a clear threat.”

Unless you’re really a madman trying to turn the night market into a scene of slaughter.

I wouldn’t have thrown a dagger without any reason.

Because the behavior of the men I checked as I passed by was not very correct.

Perhaps the other side might have started a fight.

Then, the man wearing a robe looked at me, Lance, and the dead end as if in trouble.

He had no choice but to take off his robe.

Long gray hair that shines in the floating moonlight. She is the woman in the enemy who is clearly imprinted in the mind just by seeing her once.

Lonz also gestured in amazement as if she had recognized her identity.

“Everyone, you…… !!”

“Alicia, the daughter of the ranch who lived next to our house…… !!”

“What??”

“What? Isn’t that Alicia??”

“Eh?”

In an instant of chaos, we were just staring at each other stupidly.

My God.

What is this muscular idiot talking about?

***

“Sorry, Princess Lilia of Hebron.”

Her dark-haired man apologized profusely for quickly returning the muscle knight who mistook her for her childhood friend from whom she had parted from her childhood.

“No. It’s fine.”

“If she had known you were coming, she would have treated you with the best treatment.”

Damn it.

She didn’t want to reveal her identity for fear of this.

Lillia scratched her cheek, slightly turning her head away. When she appeared, she was bound to be poured out by her flattery on all sorts of ostentatious ostentation.

I must have gotten caught up in a strange situation anyway.

She was the one who thought of leaving the Rupel estate before rumors spread.

The black-haired man rather presented himself with another proposal.

“However, the fact that he hid his identity…… It must be because of the situation the princess is in.”

“Are you familiar?”

“Because celebrities are tired.”

He chuckled and shrugged his shoulders. It’s not something to decorate, it’s a natural movement.

“Then I will give you this token.”

What the man handed over was a crest with a white leopard on it. Is it a snow leopard?

“What is this?”

“This is the crest of our Snow Leopard Knights. Oh, I’m so sorry. I haven’t introduced you yet.”

The black-haired man once again bowed politely and added.

“My name is Lubern Alroy. Former chief administrator of the Imperial Black Lion Knights, and currently administrator of Rupel Manor.”

Lubern Alroy.

Even Lilia had heard of that name.

Black fox.

A bookkeeper on the Lechenberg Plain.

In the great expedition three years ago, of course, her father, the Duke of Hebron, and his pack of wolves all participated.

At the time, I wasn’t old enough to be an official knight, so I couldn’t go to the battlefield.

Anyway, the first-class contributor who led the victory in the battle on the Lechenberg Plain, which is still talked about by knights.

After realizing her true identity, it felt like even her wariness melted away.

‘Yes…… That’s right, I said she has dark hair and black eyes.’

Looking at it now, it was completely in line with what the world was describing.

“It is an honor to meet you, Magistrate of Luberne. I didn’t expect you to be in Rupel Manor…… I never dreamed of it.”

Lillia immediately changed her tone, and this time she bowed her head first and shook Lu Bern’s hand. The administrator gently took her hand and shook it.

“Anyway, wherever you go, just show that sentence, and the merchants will provide you with all their services for free, even if you don’t reveal your identity.”

“Yes…… ?”

“It means a guest of our Snow Leopard Knights. Above all, I am saying that I will guarantee the identity of Princess Lilia of Hebron.”

Definitely.

If she didn’t have to take off her robe, her true identity wouldn’t be exposed to the world.

“Besides, you don’t have to wait. You just cut in line.”

“Is that okay?”

“We are the organizers, and if we are the host’s guests, of course we should. I can’t afford this kind of convenience…….”

Lubern smiled, revealing white teeth like a snow leopard.

“Then have a good night market.”

The legendary magistrate disappeared without leaving a single word.

As if he had no interest in himself, the only heir to the Three Dukes.

No, it was more like consideration.

He immediately figured out why he was truly here.

Lilia stared at the crest with the shape of a snow leopard.

In her mind again.

She began to think that it was good that she came.

***

“Delicious, delicious! Really, really delicious!”

Lilia, who inhaled four fish skewers in an instant, exclaimed in exclamation.

“Sure! Then!! I’m the best yakitori cook in the South, and it must be delicious, hahahahaha!”

The cook, who was fanning the innocent reaction, put her hand on her waist and let her snort.

The cook who was running another stall next to him said in an envious voice.

“Aigoo, if the knights’ guest likes it that much, you’re sure to advance to the finals.”

“What about the finals…… Although she was thinking from the beginning. The problem is that the theme for the finals has already been decided.”

“You mean the topic has already been decided?”

“Oh, don’t you know? As a guest of the Knights.”

“Ah…… That is…… I was simply really invited.”

What was it?

It seems that it was written on the advertisement she received then, but all I can remember are all kinds of shapes scattered in a mess.

“They say fried chicken. Baked is good too.”

“Fried chicken?”

Lilia thought of the chicken dish that was often served on the dinner table. She remembers cooking fried chicken in oil once…… It wasn’t very tasty.

The reason was simple.

Because I felt too much.

From noble mtl dot com.

“I heard that it is a favorite food in the Eastern Continent. Unfortunately, I’m from the South.”

The expression of the skewered street vendor, who was energetic just a moment ago, is darkening.

“Don’t worry too much. Since the original body is excellent, I think I will be able to finish with good grades in the finals.”

Lilia gave her sincere praise.

These skewers were so good that if she hadn’t cheated on her identity, she’d offered him a job as chef in the duchy.

“hahahaha, I am very sorry that the guest said this. Come on, let’s eat another one.”

“I really can do that!”

She has always maintained her modesty and modesty in front of others.

But at this moment, she didn’t have to wear the hard mask of being the Princess of Hebron.

With the token given to her by Lubern Alroy, she was able to enjoy all of her benefits while hiding her true identity.

“By the way, do you feel uncomfortable with Grove? I’d rather go naked.”

“Ah, there is a reason for this… ….”

“This nobleman is also true. Dress is the heart of the guest, what’s wrong with eating well?”

“Ehh! Hmm!”

Lilia nodded her head as she ate another mouthful of the grilled skewer she had received.

“Wait a minute, come to think of it, there is something I want to ask the guest of honor… ….”

The street vendor next to him secretly looked into the other people’s eyes and carefully opened his mouth.

“That…… I made a food for tomorrow’s entry. Can you rate it in advance? I haven’t decided on a name yet.”

The finals haven’t even been finalized yet. Have you finished preparing for the finals?

‘It’s nice, it seems like she’s working toward her goal no matter what the outcome.’

Lilia thought so.

Like what I said earlier, the street vendor next to me also seemed like a person with a pretty good personality.

Since he only enjoyed grilling skewers to his heart’s content, wouldn’t it be okay to serve him this much, even if he felt relatively deprived?

“Then let’s just taste it. I’ll give you a name, if possible.”

“It’s nice, draw it.”

Street vendors served golden-orange chickens that appeared to have been preheated under the stalls.

But strangely enough.

It looked very fresh with the chicken dismantled by part.

“I heard a tip from someone I know. The judges this time told me not to fry the whole chicken. I heard you should separate the parts and fry or bake them.”

“Is that true? Damn it, I could have been in big trouble if I hadn’t known.”

The yakitori chef is startled and starts writing down the contents in a notebook he doesn’t know where he got it from.

“And one of the main judges, the administrator, is crazy about spices. However, as if the aristocrats were eating extravagantly, if you eat it indiscriminately, points will be deducted.”

“Where the hell do you get all this information from?”

“A spice merchant I know is here just in time. Thank you very much.”

Anyway, just like he said, the chicken dish had a distinct scent of spices, but it wasn’t too much.

A rich yet light, appetizing fragrance.

Actually, even Lilia did not like overly spicy food. That’s why she was able to eat the yakitori more deliciously.

Skewered skewers, after all, were sprinkled with pepper, salt, and powdered spices.

“First of all, try a bite of the guest lady.”

“Okay.”

Basasak.

As soon as I picked up one of the legs and tore it off, a delicious texture resonated just by hearing it.

Followed by, spicy yet plain.

It can never be said to be greasy, but at the same time, the flavor that is not plain spreads through the mouth.

“…… Hmmm!”

A suspicious moan that burst out without my knowledge. Lillia is taken aback by this fact and backs away from her.

“Why, why…… Is there any taste…… ?”

The face of the street vendor who handed over the chicken dish suddenly darkened, but after seeing Lilia devouring a chicken leg without hesitation, she began to brighten up again.

In an instant, Lillia, who ripped off the flesh leaving only bones, jumped up and said.

“Is this really chicken dish?!”

Only those who have eaten it can know.

She was born as the only daughter of a duke and has eaten every kind of food in her life.

A truly heavenly taste. She

Even though she had no talent for cooking, she wanted to learn how to cook.

“Thank God. We use a spice blend that has been passed down through generations in our family.”

“It was very good that I could feel the slightly spicy taste, but rather it took care of the greasiness of the oil. Did you bake it as if you were priming it?”

She gave the best of her knowledge to the best of her knowledge.

Slightly disappointed was shown on the face of the grilled skewer vendor, who had been highly praised just a while ago, but unfortunately, what can I do when the chicken dish is more delicious?

Even Lilia herself never knew in her dreams that food that was more delicious than grilled skewers would be renewed right in front of her eyes.

“I sprinkled a special powder mixture of flour and eggs on top and put a little red pepper on top. I can’t tell you the rest of the mix.”

Lilia shouted as she slapped me on the thigh.

“That was it!”

“First of all, the taste is the pass…… If so, would the guest lady name this dish?”

She felt a great responsibility.

Honestly, I don’t know how delicious chicken dishes other chefs will prepare.

Lilia was sure that this dish would be at least in the top three at tomorrow’s cooking contest.

That’s why names are important.

If the top 3 food didn’t even have a name, that was a problem.

She carefully listed her thoughts.

It was definitely the worry of her life.

‘First of all, the texture is crispy, so I wish it had the onomatopoeia of crispy.’

‘And the taste of the spicy ingredients is characteristic, so if you put the two words together… ….’

Lilia immediately came up with the perfect word and shouted, clapping her hands.

“Crisp cock!”

“…… ?”

“What, what? Miss, what did you just say?”

“Kkochu, kkochu crispy!”

The two street vendors looked at each other at the same time.

“Keahmm!!”

“That… The grown-up wife is manly, uhm…”

Something…… It was clear that something was going terribly wrong.
