Chapter 198: Tell me Impikchan
In the Mountain Castle of the Nameless Kingdom exists the residence of the Pixies, while located on the opposite side is Yuu's personal farm field.
In these fields, there are seeds which are planted that were bought from various merchants, and seedlings which were brought back from the Plant Garden Labyrinth. By cooperating with the help of the spirits, plants which could not originally be cultivated with regards to the condition of the soil, humidity, and temperature, were now being cultivated at the same place.
「Goshujin-sama, it's time to eat desune~」
Izaya who was the servant on the field, plucked a corn from its parent and peeled the outer shell, revealing the densely packed grains which had grown properly with a *Panpanni*
「Alright, let’s eat and see how it is.」
On this field alone, there were five different varieties of corn.
Incidentally, the corn which Izaya had plucked out earlier was a dark-yellowish corn, which was known as Golden Corn.
「Odono-sama, is it fine to eat?」
「Aa, Namari you can go ahead and eat.」
「Yatta! Momo, it’s a good thing that we worked together right?」
Momo kept clinging on the corn which was letting out a sweet scent, sniffing at the smell while repeatedly nodding to agree.
Marifa places a pot filled with water on a fire, while Yuu adds in various kinds of corn while the water starts to boil.
「Yuu~ the water has boiled~」
「.......Quick」
「Stop shouting, we still have to wait before we can eat.」
Yuu plucks out two tomado and throws it towards Nina and the gang.
Lena nibbled on the ripe red tomado while adding a bit of salt.
「......Tasty」
Thinking that their stomach has cooled down for now, Lena breathes out with a mufu~ from her nose. Looking at such a funny appearance of Lena, Nina wiped the juices that still stuck on Lena's mouth with a bitter smile. Meanwhile, the corn was being boiled.
In fact, the steam that was rising was turning more vibrant due to the boiling corn.
「Hora, it's boiled tazo」
Namari approaches Yuu while crawling. As soon as she received the corn, she immediately opened her large mouth and bit into it.
「Tasty~~! Momo, it’s really tasty~!!」
Momo was urging Namari while hitting her cheeks with a *PeshiPeshi*.
While Namari said 「I know, stop.」and broke off a piece of corn then gave it to Momo.
Momo opens her mouth as if to imitate Namari and ate it while her body started to quiver at intermittent times.
「Awawa. Odono-sama, it’s so tasty that Momo is trembling.」
「Then that's good. By the way Marifa…」
「What is it?」
「Why does it feel like Koro is in a bad mood?」
Koro, who was rolling in front of Yuu, looked like it was in a bad mood and was raising sounds.
Meanwhile, Ran who was watching this situation from the nearby tree was shaking its tail from left to right in a cranky manner.
「It seems that Koro's favorite branch had been broken by Ran. To have shown this shameful behaviour in front of master, I shall take responsibility for this.」
Marifa lowered her head deeply towards Yuu.
「Such a hopeless kid right.」
When Koro came close, Yuu held out a piece of corn.
「Koro eat this, it might help your mood.」
「Kunnn.....」
While looking at Ran, Koro gave out a miserable cry.
It was as if Koro was saying, 「But that fellow…」.
However, the smell that was being let out by the corn was agitating Koro’s appetite.
Its patience was soon taken over by its appetite. As if being unable to stand it anymore, Koro nods strongly towards Yuu’s corn with spirit.
「It’s tasty right? Oy, Make sure not to eat the core. 」
Looking at Koro who was happily eating corn, Ran soon could not stand it anymore and therefore came down from the tree.
「Ran, you cannot have any.」
Ran rubbed its face against Marifa's foot while she looked down at it.
It was outright flattering, but reality was ruthless.
「It’s no use until you learn. You shall not even get dinner today.」
「Ni*ya!?」
*Gan*! Just hearing the sound was enough to see how much Ran was disappointed.
「Umm, ummm, Yuu-san.」
Hisui who was quiet up until now appeals to Yuu, while moving her hands up and down with a *guruguru*.
「What is it? Don't panic so much.」
「Me, me too! I also helped take care of Yuu-san's field too, right?」
「Aa, Hisui really helped me out often. I did say this before, you can eat as much as you want.」
Yuu answers while feeding corn to Koro. Although he did not deal with her roughly, Hisui seemed to be not convinced.
「Moouu! Yuu-san does not understand at all!」
Hisui was waving her hands up and down again, indicating and vigorously asserting that 「I am angry!」
「What are you saying? I did tell you that you can also eat right? And what’s with the *PuriPuri* waving hands and huffing? Have you not tried eating this? It’s really tasty.」
Yuu holds a corn in front of Hisui lips, while Hisui’s cheeks immediately dyed red.
「Fufu. So Yuu-san does understand ne~」
While smiling, Hisui bit into the corn with a sly smile.
「What are you talking about?」
Even though she was upset until now, but she suddenly is all better again and returned to being the cheerful Hisui. Yuu then felt some ominous aura coming from his back and turned around.
「Wait just a moment! Us too, give us some of that corn as well!」
[TL: It says Indian corn but let’s just stick to consistency.]
「That's right, that's right~」
「Give us corn as well~」
The Pixies were also slobbering like dogs.
When Yuu looked towards Marifa, Marifia quickly added more corn into the pot.
「T,Tasty!?」
「The ones over there, quickly distribute the next portion of the corn or do you wish for me to eat like a beast as well?」
「Waa fuuu..............tasty. Hisui was raising something secret like this without telling us, but still you have to admit this is so delicious.」
「It-it’s not really a secret, right Momo-chan?」
While Hisui looked towards Momo, Momo noticing the danger immediately ran towards Yuu's flying cap.
「Aa! Momo-chan, how bad of you! 」
「「「Ji~」」」
「Awawa. Hisui-neechan is strange~」
Namari was laughing at Hisui’s sorry state that was surrounded by Pixies.
「All of you, keep quiet... can't you eat silently?」
「Hahahahaha. Goshujin-sama, it’s almost next to impossible for Hisui and the others to not make some noise. I thought that Golden Corn was the most delicious, but white corn is definitely not inferior as well.」
「If you like it so much, you can bring as many as you want back to your family.」
「Goshujin-sama, thank you very much. My wife and son will be very pleased.」
「Come to think of it, I did hear from Narumo, but is it true that Izaya remained here even though you had enough to repurchase yourself?」
「Eee, it’s true. This is such a nice place. The soil is rich in spirit, originally I was shunned in my group, but everything is all good now. Also thanks to Goshujin-sama, my son and I can also go to school. These days even I can calculate, read, and write easily, my son can do it too you know? Thank you very much for all of this.」
After that, Izaya went on and on about how the Nameless Kingdom is such a great kingdom and so on. His wife Lorie was working with livestock which was also going smoothly and wanted to talk to Yuu in the near future as well.
While Izaya was going on and on without stopping, a shrill noise which sounded as if it was scraping against the field could be heard.
「Arere-? If it isn't King-sama, this is strange.」
It was Agafon who had scraped against the corn field and had come out.
For Pixies who were always carefree to the point that they could be considered brain damaged, they had a straight face in reaction to Agafon’s appearance.
「What a coincidental meeting this is. This mountain has Russ’ magic placed into it, so even if you want to reach here normally, you still wouldn't be able to. You, you used your skill didn't you?」
Agafon smiled when Yuu pointed that out.
「So the cat's out of the bag eh?」
「You even brought along Impikte」
「Ee? Impika?」
「What a good smell~」
Impika thrust her face from behind Agafon and sniffed at the corn.
「Impika?! Why are you here? How come even I did not smell you dazo?」
