(AN: Warning! Contains vomiting. Apologies to those having a meal. Please be careful.)

"These are common foods found in this world. We"ll be looking for things your body can accept. If it"s bitter, or the tip of your tongue is numb, please spit it out quickly."

"Yes."

After Laham"s explanation, the beautiful woman and giant warrior turned to the opposite side of a.s.sam"s bed. A tray was placed on the bed, the giant warrior put a cleanly washed bucket beside it. It was for vomiting.

"Thank you."

When I thanked them, they smiled. I thought the smile made them more beautiful.

"Then, go ahead."

Urged by Laham, the first thing I picked up was something like a round and reddish fruit. Should I peel the skin? Just bite it? While I was thinking of these things, the beautiful woman next to me peeled off the skin and served them on a plate then held it out to me.

"Is it necessary to peel of the skin of the whole thing?"

a.s.sam said. Certainly, Laham looked at Toki in thought "There"s a possibility of breaking out into a rash, but only if you eat the skin often," he explained with a bitter smile. I see, thank you. Apologizing in my mind, I immediately put the toothpick with the fruit attached to it in my mouth.

"!!!—Peh!"

I spat out the remainder of the unpleasant taste. I"ve never eaten something that tasted like clay before.

"Water."

I received light blue water from the giant warrior to rinse my mouth.

Spitting into the bucket, I was hesitant to drink the water again. When I held it in my mouth, the taste was non-existent, I wonder if it"s okay to drink it?

"What"s the matter? Is there something wrong with the water?"

"Water, no taste, same. Colour, different, clear."

"The water in Toki"s world has no colour. Laham, something he"s okay drinking?"

"Tsugura, please bring the purified water in my room."

Laham told the beautiful woman. The beautiful woman disappeared through the door and returned in less that three minutes. The room, was it nearby?

"This purified water is primarily used in temple ceremonies and medicine, the water is completely free of impurities."

The water I was pa.s.sed was the transparent water I used to drink in j.a.pan, and so I completely drank the mild water with no peculiarities.

"So, that"s fine. Then, please try this fruit next."

A deep blue and spindly fruit was pa.s.sed over when he said so. I don"t know why when I touched it, it was jiggling, I really needed courage to hold what was on that dish in my mouth. And because it was a deep blue. This is jelly, this is jelly. This is the colour of a foreign dessert isn"t it! Hang in there! Go!

"Oee~!!!"

"Toki! Bucket!"

Although I"ve never eaten it before, it tasted like sludge. I rinsed my mouth with water. I tried out the next one. The purple triangular fruit made my mouth numb, the shocking pink hexagonal fruit caused pain in my hand, the fruit that looked like a yellow banana tasted like soap and made bubbles come out of my mouth, testing out many more of them, I was finally at the last one. Each one I"ve tried so far ended in crushing defeat.

I, wonder if I can still live… No, there"s still one more left.

The fruit was gold and shaped like an apple. In terms of visuals and touch, compared to the other fruits, there were no problems. With the skin peeled off, the fruit was light gold. It looked like it would be delicious and juicy.

I never thought I"d see the day when I thought a golden fruit looked delicious… goes to show how terrible the things I"ve eaten were so far.

Cautiously biting with my teeth, it"s texture felt just like an apple"s and I was surprised to find it delicious. Its taste was similar to the modest sweetness of custard cream. It was strange that it was fresh but wasn"t watery.

"Tasty."

When I finished eating a piece, the surroundings stared at me in relief. I was relieved too.

"The [Fruit of Golun]. It"s a very nutritious fruit. Do you feel any abnormalities in your body?"

Laham asked, I searched my body, but there didn"t seem to be any signs of abnormalities. Next was meat, several kinds of meat were taken out. But, before eating it all, there was a problem.

『Smells like blood.』

I unintentionally muttered in j.a.panese. All the meat arranged in front of me was raw.

"What"s the matter? Do you not eat meat?"

"Raw won"t eat."

"Should we diffuse heat through the meat?"

I nodded and the beautiful woman cleared the tray of raw meat. In this world, it seemed that meat was best kept in its basic form. Although they could cook it thoroughly with fire, blood dripping from fresh meat was apparently evidence of high grade.

This world could cook food directly at the bed, it was a good world. While waiting for them to heat up the meat, I was to try out the fish.

"We don"t have any others except [Wol] for you to eat. But, it"s very large and its taste differs depending on the part. This is usually eaten cooked."

A green fish was brought out. Why is it green. I noticed the several small hills stationed on it. It"s no use being cautious. I tried it quickly.

And, trying out my first green fillet, it had the flavour like lean tuna. Delicious!!

Next was a dark green colour. It tasted like shrimp. The texture was tender and delicious. Next, an emerald green. It was salmon-like. I was relieved by the familiar taste of oil.

The last piece was a yellow-green slice that tasted like a simple white-meat fish. Amazing! Wol is a delicious bargain.

"There seems to be no problems with Wol. Now, it"s time for the cooked meat."

The meat was arranged in front of my eyes. Because the fish was fine, I regarded the meat lightly and put it in my mouth.

"Ow!!!"

"Toki, spit it out!"

My body quickly stained red. It appeared to be an allergic shock. My whole body was in pain. a.s.sam dug his fingers into Toki"s mouth who was suffering and sc.r.a.ped out the meat. My mouth was rinsed forcibly with water, and recovery magic was immediately applied.

And I finally settled down. That was surprising. Turning towards a.s.sam to thank him, the small hills of meat in front of my eyes was decreasing.

"We"re removing the meat similar to the meat you ate just now."

Laham noticed my gaze and told me. The two remaining hills of meat were called [Yanak] and [Sahana]. I couldn"t imagine what kind of animal it was even if it was explained. I"ll try to eat them for now.

The result was that [Yanak] meat was chicken, and [Sahana] tasted like a blend between pork and beef. Both had delicious meat juices and were tender which didn"t change from what I was familiar with in j.a.pan. It was really tasty.

"It seems these two are alright. Then we"ll make meals with these. Tsugura."

"Yes."

The beautiful woman answered. We still haven"t been introduced yet, since I didn"t know if we"d meet again, I pointed to myself and said "Toki".

"Tsugura. I a.s.sist His Highness."

"I"m Yarra. Similarly, I also a.s.sist His Highness while working as his guard."

The giant warrior also gave his name, and I asked the both of them to please take care of me. After the greetings. Tsugura took the food away. I was looking forward to what kind of dishes I could eat.
