ONE COULD BE THE KING OF ANOTHER WORLD
Volume 1 (Ch 3 Creating a Broadcast Program) Part 6

David goes into the broadcast destination when

the food crisis can be solved, they

these. As a way to buy time until it will introduce ingredients that are not commonly eaten in the country and show you how to prepare them. These ingredients can be obtained cheaply (or free of charge where they are grown in the wild). In addition, by eating those ingredients in the air, they will show that they are edible.

Even the citizens who were angry with the previous question, who seemed to be giving up responsibility, felt their anger cool as they listened to David's explanation. Because this king really thought of them. They can feel it very strongly.

"... So, thats. Well, now, I will hand the event back to the hosts, Poncho and Juna. "With his full explanation, David returned to his seat.

David couldn't possibly know this, but at that moment, roaring applause erupted through plazas across the country. It was a spontaneous applause from the citizens who were very impressed by David's words. Unknowingly, David slowly begins to gain recognition as their king.

The video returns to Poncho and Juna hosting once again.

"Well, let's get started" said Juna. "Ponco, what's our first ingredient?"

"Y-Yeah! Our first ingredient is here!"

With that, Poncho carried a cloth-covered box, placing it on a table where David, Liscia, Aisha, and Tomoe sat on a chair like guest commentators.

It was a box large enough to accommodate a large aquarium.

Pausing for a dramatic effect, Poncho retracted the cloth.

...****************...

We were in the cafeteria at Swan Castle for a live broadcast.

"Uhh..."

"Eeeeeeeeeeeek!"

"Wai- What?!

When they saw what appeared on the table, Aisha, Tomoe and Liscia each let out their own shouts of shock.

Juna, on the other hand, looked at it and seemed to be thinking, "Ohhhh, so I am."

"That's an octopus."

"It was really an octopus."

The one in the box in front of them was the eight-legged, soft-legged eight-legged creature that you all know as an octopus.

While many creatures in this world have a fantastic touch about them, like even cows and chickens that have armored carapaces, these are just straight (albeit rather large) octopuses. Yes, even in a fantasy world, a giant octopus is often something, so I guess it's okay?

In this country, they

call octopus "ocatos," but it's confusing, so we'll stick with octopus. I mean, with my mysterious translation ability, that word sounds like a "gurita" to me.

"Huh? You guys don't eat octopus in this country?

"Manyaku.

"We don't! Wait, David, are you

it really does eat one of those things

that was scary before ?!

"Liscia looked at me in disbelief.

Come on, it's just an octopus, you know? I had trouble accepting this reaction.

"Well, given their appearance, I'm sure they're only eaten in some coastal areas. My hometown is one of them, "Juna gently explained.

Yes, even when returning to Earth, in Europe (excluding Italy and Spain) they are called "devil fish," and in some countries people refuse to eat them? I figured.

"But they are delicious." I said.

As soon as she heard they were delicious, Aisha was ready to dig. Being my bodyguard means we eat together a lot, so I already know this, but this girl is quite greedy. He had a special weakness when it came to sweet foods (such as snacks that came as offerings to kings and servants), and he would chew on them to the extent that the servant was enviously grumbling, "How did he eat so much and still maintain that figure ...?"

"Yes. There are different opinions about how good it is raw, but if you just rub salt into it, wash the mucus, and boil it, it is worth it that way. Cooked, fried, served with rice, tastes good as you like."

There's silence.

"Aisha, you drool," I added.

"Ouch... I'm sorry."

"Honestly, it's high in protein, low in calories, so eat it too if you're on a diet."

"High-pro? I-I'm not sure what it is, but my ears sharpened when I heard the word 'diet... "Liscia seems ready to dig right now.

Honestly speaking, I think Liscia could stand up to put more meat on her bones. Maybe it's because he's in the army, but he's pretty slim.

"I don't think you need to worry too much about your weight" I told her.

“David... A girl stopped being a girl as she stopped paying attention to her weight," Liscia warned me with eyes that seemed to be staring into the distance.

Since Juna and Tomoe nodded firmly, I guess it was like that. Aisha was the only dissident, with a face that seemed to say, "Forget that, I've been willing to eat ..."

"Okay, then ... For now, shall we start cooking?" My toot.

We moved into the kitchen connected to the cafeteria and started preparing the octopus. The cooks working there protested, "If you have just said something, we will do it for you alone ..” but I love cooking, so I decided to do it.

First, I put the octopus in a large bowl, cut the entrails, ink bags, and eyeballs with a kitchen knife. (This raises the "Uwah.." of the girls, but I ignore them.) Then I rubbed salt into it, waiting for the slimy surface to harden, then washed off with water. I cleaned the sucker thoroughly, too, because sometimes there was mud in it.

After that, I brought boiling water, dropped it to the foot of the pot first, and then the very octopus-shaped creature (i.e., it was an octopus) boiled. Watching until his yellowish-brown flesh turned reddish-purple, I pulled it out, and the boiled octopus example was ready. After a bit of cold, I cut the legs into bite-sized pieces. It's gonna be dangerous like this.

"Eh, pretty good. It's time to eat, "I said.

"What ?!" Liscia and the others were surprised to see me biting at him without hesitation.

When I bite my mouth, yes, it tastes like an octopus. The slightly salty taste is delicious. And because it was so incredible, I couldn't help but feel sad that there was no soy sauce in this world yet!

"... Is it really edible?" Liscia muttering.

"Come, Liscia. You can try it and find out, you know?"

"Eh, no ... I'm not emotionally ready yet ..."

"You sure? It's delicious."

Ignoring the hesitant Liscia, Juna sliced her mouth.

"Ahh, not fair, Mrs Juna!" Aisha crying. "Okay, me too!"

Seeing that, Aisha goes chewing, and-

Hey wait! Do not bite immediately

his head! But just how many devourers is this dark elf ?!

"Oh! Crispy and delicious!'

. Is now?"

. Okay, time to get back in control of things.

I coated bite-sized octopus pieces in wheat flour, eggs, and white flour, putting them on three skewers at a time. Then I put the whole skewer in a pot of hot oil. I let them fry until the dough is light brown and crispy. I pulled them out of the pot, and once I had touched the finishing touches with Worcester sauce, which they had even in this world, and ah my homemade mayonnaise had been made with eggs, he said, vinegar and other things, they're done.
