It’s finally completed!?

    With that said, I assigned each of us a role.

    Suzaku-sama and I were in charge of shredding the cabbage.

    We worked together in earnest to shred the cabbage.

    The grated yam was done by Mashiro and Sei.

    They had a hard time because of the stickiness, but they grated it well.

    Thin slices of Orc belly were done by Kurogane and Byako-sama.

    “Alright, let’s get to grilling!”

    After mixing the ingredients together and placing Uncle Galvano’s special iron plate on a small portable magic stove, all that was left to do was to grill it over a slightly low flame with a thin layer of oil.

    I thought about baking it in a frying pan, but I thought it would be better to grill it in a large pan and cut it into pieces, and I also thought it would be more fun to bake it while everyone was enjoying it.

    “First, pour in the batter and…”

    Put in a thick drop so as not to spread it out.

    Using my special spatulas, I rounded out the perimeter of the okonomiyaki and placed a thin slice of Orc belly on top and grilled it slowly.

    There is another type of okonomiyaki where the batter is made into a thin crêpe and topped with cabbage, tenkasu, and pork belly, but I don’t think I could pull that one off.

    Even at my best, I’m just a little kid, after all.

    I have a feeling that I would get bathed in hot cabbage.

    I decided to go with the safe and secure mixed type.

    “… That should be it?”

    After checking the doneness of the okonomiyaki by flipping the edges, I held my spatula in both hands for the main event of okonomiyaki, the flipping.

    “W, wait a moment!”

    “Eh?”

    “Pl, please let me do this! I’m good at this one thing!”

    Mariel-chan raised her hand in the air and asked to be left in charge of the flipping.

    “O… okay, that’s fine with me…”

    When I handed the spatulas to the vigorous Mariel-chan, with a serious look on her face, she inserted the spatulas into both sides of the okonomiyaki.

    Mariel-chan, you always say you are not good at cooking, so I’m wondering if this will end up well…

    As Sei and I gulped and watched, Mariel-chan moved the spatulas, checked by feel that the okonomiyaki was off the griddle, and with a brilliant flip, flipped the okonomiyaki over. Everyone was like, “Ohh~” and Mariel-chan held up the spatulas and posed with a smug smile on her face.

    “I’m surprised. You are really good at this.”

    As I was impressed, Mariel-chan said shyly, “I used to do this a lot at my parents’ house…”

    As I praised her for her great skills, Mashiro and Kurogane competitive spirits were raised as they mumbled, “I’ll do it next!” between themselves.
