Project 3 Plan C: Let's Build a Giant Cauldron

Now we'll just let it simmer for a bit... It will be done soon, Master.

Heh, heh. Now there's a nice sight! A pot filled to the brim with stew. That's what a real meal should look like.

？！

Huh? You know, Father used to...

N-Never mind. This just reminded me of the time we were marching.

Whether the soldiers get enough food or not really affects the outcome of a battle, you know?

A soldier's stamina is a factor that partly affects their performance, but as long as you fill their stomachs they won't complain as much.

On the flip side, an army can easily break apart as food supplies decrease. After all, an army marches on its stomach.

That's why the quantity of the food is what matters most. The quantity! I believe you chose wisely, Master!

As for me...I had a younger brother and sister in my household.

Since we had to cook relatively large meals to feed us all, I'm quite used to seeing this amount of food too.

？！

And you know what else? I was one of those people who always prepared a little extra in case an unexpected visitor dropped in.

Like when a certain someone and His disciples dropped by.

I've always wanted to have cooking utensils that would whip up so much food all at once, much like a party this size.

Oh! Dear me, it's about time to take it off the heat. Taste test, taste test.

Okay, just right. Now then, everyone had better eat this, or it would have been pointless making a whole potful.

Is there anyone nearby?

I was confident that this would be the wisest choice. I was right in cheering you on.

I know this is for everyone, but if you will excuse me, I will help myself first.

Stew is the best.

？！

What is it?
