Chapter 9 Original Text
On the next day, the fighting started.
CLING.
CLANG.
ăORAAAH!ă
ăGUHA!ă
ăFIGHTTT!ă
By the way, me and the other cooks were in the furthest back being protected by knights.
We were being pushed back a little. At this rate, Oukoku will lose this war.
I started seeing an air of anxiety amongst the Oukoku knights.
Once he saw this, the leader of the Oukoku Kishidan yelled,
ăORA ORA! Whatâs wrong! Remember the taste of the curry yesterday! Donât you want to eat it once more! If you guys win, I promise you guys can eat it once more!ă
What a stupidâŠ
How can that raise moraleâŠ
ăăUOOOH-!ăă
He-y! Why are you guys getting excited?
What~? What the heck, the front lines are starting to push Teikoku?
Ah, they got the Teikoku commander.
What? Is this the power of curry?
Food is amazing!
Ahh, I feel like I just saw the charismatic side of Oukoku Kishidanâs leader.
Just a few words from Oukoku Kishidanâs leader led to a 180 degree change in the situation. A few hours later, Teikoku surrendered to Oukoku.
ăTeikoku has surrendered to Oukoku! It is our victory!!ă
ăăâŠWOOAH-!!!ăă
ăăWe did it-!ăă
ăăCurry!ăă
ăThatâs right, curry!ă
ăIâm hungry!ă
ăOh yeah, Kio, thereâs no more meat. What are we going to do?ă
ăEh-! We donât have meat? I see~, it canât be helped, Iâll go hunt. ă
ăI see, weâre counting on you.ă
Oukoku Kishidanâs leader still didnât know. What is Kio going to huntâŠ
As usual, he went to a forest nearby. He didnât come with a group this time.
ăIâm pretty deep in the forest, huh-ă
ăBumoooo*!!ă*TL: Itâs a cowâs sound, Japanese âmoo.â
ăUwah! What!?ă
Bam! Bam!
Somethingâs coming.
ăUwah-! ! Itâs huge!ă
There was a gigantic cow in front of me. About 7 meters?
Moreover, he wasnât a regular cow.
ăItâs the first time Iâve ever seen a cow walking on two legs.ă
Thatâs right, heâs walking on two legs. Furthermore,
ăWhy does it look like a body builder?ă
To make things worse, itâs a gachimuchi.* *TL: Big macho guy stereotype that also has fat. Look up if youâre curious.
A human-type cow thatâs a gachimuchi. A normal person would have already been overcome with fear and started vomiting.
However, the one here is Kio.
ăItâs beef!ă
I threw a rock towards the cowâs direction.
It looked annoyingly confident in its muscles. He was doing a body builderâs pose.
Kioâs rock did a direct hit.
ăBumoooo?!ă
It hit his hip.
ăBumo, Bumo, Bumoo-!ă
ăShit, it seems like heâs breathing excitedlyă
ăChu*â Chuu.ă*TL: Kissing noises.
Look, even Nezumi-kun is afraid!
Since he was too gross and gave me goosebumps, I chopped its head off.
ăOkay, how about we head home?ă
I was able to get the beef, so we quickly returned.
ăWas the hunt successful?ă
ăAh, Oukoku Kishidan Leader! Please look, itâs beef!ă
ăWhat-! I- Isnât that a minotaurus (ăăăżăŠăăč)!!ă
ăOh-, is this cow called a minotaurus?ă
ăSince a minotaurus has such impenetrable skin, itâs hard to even do much damage, so I donât even know if 20 knights can defeat it. ă
ăMoreover, even though theyâre all male, they like men. Thatâs why all us males canât really do anything because weâre too grossed out, and we canât really hunt them. And you did that by yourselfâŠă
This cow, is it an onee* (ăȘăăš)? *TL: According to JP Wiki, itâs a homosexual male that uses exaggerated feminine language.
ăIt really was gross. So, I immediately cut off its head.ă
ăCut off its head⊠I have to go ask something with the leader of Lint Bloom KishidanâŠă
Kio ignored the dazed and confused Oukoku Kishidan leader and headed to the cooking area.
ăHah-, if I donât make as much as that curry last time, it wonât be good- ă
After that, all of us cooks made curry while shedding tears.
More than yesterdayâs curry, they might be able to taste the salt more.
By the way, the curry was very delicious. Especially the meat.
Afterwards, we took several days to return to the kingdom.
Once we came back, the kingdom was in festival mode.
In the span of two days, the kingdom was able to give peace of mind to all of the citizens through a victory parade.
We rested at an inn.
ăOh! Kio. It seems you did some great work!ă
ăAh, Leader! Itâs been a while.ă
ăAhh, while we were dealing with the stuff at the northern plains, you were spending time with the Oukoku Kishidan leader, right?ă
ăYeah, I never want to do that kind of work ever again.ă
ăHahah, that seems about right.ă
ăWhich reminds me â it seems like there will be some sort of public recognition ceremony.ă
ăHuh, is that so?ă
ăWhy are you speaking as if itâs about other people? Youâre also in it.ă
ăEhh! Me!?ă
ăOf course. Your curry is the reason why we won.ă
Oi, oi, that canât be true.
Anyhow, it seems that theyâre making me appear at the public recognition ceremony.
What should I do, Nezumi-kun!
ăSqueak-!ă
This is bad, at this kind of time, I canât understand what Nezumi-kun is trying to say! Isnât that too convenient?
