The lively noise occasionally rose from the kitchen. Satella felt like a firefighter, running back and forth to help, and was sweating profusely from exhaustion.
but……
What's the source of this joyful feeling?
Back when she was a shut-in, Satella tried cooking for herself because she was tired of takeout. But she must have frowned and done it back then because she found it too troublesome.
but……
Only now.
Satella wanted to approach this meal with a serious heart.
"call--"
Satella, holding a kitchen knife, stood by the kitchen counter, completely focused, and took a deep breath.
Cooking isn't difficult, and cooking well isn't difficult either, as long as you have someone you're willing to cook for.
I try not to think about how Kanna will leave tomorrow, or that I might die tomorrow because I can't complete the mission.
I simply focused on preparing this meal, pouring my heart and soul into it.

First, take a piece of pork hind leg and slice it thinly. Slice ginger, green garlic shoots, and green peppers. Then, heat a pan with oil. When the oil is warm, turn the heat to medium and stir-fry the pork slices until the fat is rendered and the meat is tender but not greasy. Then, add fermented black beans, broad bean paste, and ginger slices and stir-fry until fragrant. Next, add green peppers and green garlic shoots and stir-fry for 15 seconds. A plate of salt-fried pork, which Satella loved in her previous life, is now ready.
Of course, the salt-fried meat was on the heavier side, so to cater to Emilia's preference for lighter flavors, Satella also made some light and delicious home-style dishes such as tofu and monster fish, stir-fried cabbage with vinegar, and stir-fried shredded potatoes.
About forty minutes later, the standard three dishes and one soup were ready!
"Ooh!"
Kanna, who was making such a happy sound, was very diligent in carrying the dishes and bowls into the restaurant.
Kanna's behavior was one thing, but what made Satella laugh was that Emilia also joined in the madness.
According to the original novel, Emilia's mental age at this point should be 14 years old, but disregarding her deliberate act of maturity in public, she is truly like a child in private.
Soon, chopsticks, plates, and bowls, including three dishes and a soup, were brought to the table, and the cooked rice was also added to everyone's bowls thanks to Emilia's diligent work.
"I'm starting!"
When Satella clasped her hands together and said those words, Emilia and Kanna, who already had chopsticks in their hands, immediately joined the ranks of those grabbing food, as if they had heard the starting gun of a match.
Swish swish!
In no time, more than half of the food on the plate was gone.
Satella, who was initially a little hungry, suddenly felt less hungry. She ladled herself a bowl of tofu and monster fish soup and slowly drank it while watching Emilia and Kanna fight over the food.
"So delicious!"
Emilia's rosy cheeks puffed out like steamed buns, and she abandoned all her usual elegant demeanor.
Needless to say, Kanna's chopsticks never stopped moving, and a meal enough for three people was quickly devoured by her.
However, Satella wasn't worried at all that she would overeat. Instead, she asked, "Kanna-chan, is this all you have? Will you be full?"
"As long as Kanna eats her fill for one day, she won't be hungry for the next seven days, so this food is enough!"
"Wow, that's an amazing skill."
That's how it was. Just like a typical family of three having a meal, three dishes, a soup, and a bucket of rice were quickly devoured.
In this uneventful atmosphere, the system notification sounded quietly that the task was completed.
Because it was so mundane, Satella initially thought she was hallucinating, and only dared to believe it after checking the system panel.
Then, she stared in surprise.
She was self-aware. Although she had put her heart and soul into the meal and made it very seriously, she was still a novice when it came to cooking. The dishes she made certainly wouldn't taste as good as those made by professional chefs in restaurants.
But even so, the mission was actually completed?
"Kanna, do you think this meal is particularly delicious?" Satella asked in surprise.
"Mmm!" Kanna nodded her little head and said, "Because Sasha, Amy, and I made this meal together!"
Ah... I understand.
Satella let out a low sound from her throat. It turned out that the focus of the mission was never on the word "feast," but on the word "satisfaction."
It doesn't matter whether it's a Manchu Han Imperial Feast or just some home-cooked dishes, as long as it makes Kanna happy.
What truly satisfies Kanna isn't filling her bottomless stomach, but rather filling her lonely and isolated heart, which feels so empty after being kicked out of her home...
That's all.
"Sasha, what's wrong? You look very sad. Do you want me to use an energizing spell on you?"
Kanna gently tugged at Satella's skirt, tilted her head back, and her large, azure eyes reflected Satella's image.
“It’s nothing…” Satella smiled and gently stroked Kanna’s smooth white hair as if combing it: “Kanna-chan, let’s sleep together as a family tonight.”
……
night.
The soft moonlight shone through the window. Satella, Emilia, and Kanna were sleeping in the same bed, with Satella on the left, Emilia on the right, and Kanna in the middle.
Satella hugged Emilia, Emilia hugged Kanna, and Kanna hugged Satella. They talked for a while, and soon Emilia, tired from the journey, fell asleep. Kanna, who was still a child, also fell asleep quickly. Only Satella kept her eyes wide open, staring at her phone.
When the time displayed on my phone changed from 23:59 to 00:00, my arms suddenly felt empty.
"..."
Satella quickly opened the hiring interface, but did not see Kanna's name on it.
This is only natural.
Whether it's borrowing abilities or hiring characters, there seems to be a cooldown period, which could be a month, a year, or even longer.
But no matter how long it takes, there is only one thing Satella can be sure of.
That is, when Kanna's name reappears on the hiring list, she will summon this cute and obedient dragon girl, no matter the cost.
Then, still in the same position, as if she were holding a cute little dragon girl sleeping in her arms, Satella slowly fell asleep.
Author's Note:
PS1. Thanks to Rabbit Ball, Yu Yuyu, Nothing to be afraid of anymore, Dean Theresa, Book Guest 26225712888, Gentlemen, I long for breasts, Masochist, Bottom, Real*Old Driver, を令音る, Forgotten Remnant Soul, Houraisan·Kaguya, Saigyouji Genku, Think of a good name, Lexington·Prototype Ship, and Majesty Supreme for their rewards and blades.
P.S. 2. This chapter is almost 3,000 words again. I feel like authors who don't break chapters are at a disadvantage. Maybe I should start breaking chapters too? Will you guys attack me? _(:3」∠)_
PS3. I always feel that the author Hime has a very low tear threshold. It was the same when she wrote about Shokuhou Misaki before, and it's the same when she wrote about Kanna this time. She cried like an idiot while writing. I just hate that my writing skills are not good enough to fully express my thoughts.
④ Offering blessings to this wonderful world.
Chapter 54 starts on hellish difficulty.
As dawn broke, Satella opened her eyes and glanced at Emilia, who was curled up in her arms, fast asleep.
Satella gently kissed Emilia's smooth forehead, eliciting a few pouty murmurs from the girl in her sleep. Satella smiled and sat up in bed.
With Kanna gone, Satella's mission in this world can be considered to have been completed for a period of time.
Next, Satella will prepare to go to the next dimension to complete a mission.
She now has three planes to visit:
First, *Akame ga Kill!*
Borrowing ability: Murder techniques
Page 78
Borrowed from: Akame
Wish: To see my sister again
Term: Three years
Second, *A Certain Magical Index*
Borrowing ability: 103,000 magic books
Borrowed from: Index
Wish: I hope to be able to eat my fill at a family-run restaurant.
Duration: Half a month
Third, *KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!*
Borrowing ability: Water God's power
Borrowed from: Aqua
Wish: To return to the realm of the gods
Term: Two years
……
From initially being unwilling to use the system to now having three wishes owed, Satella feels like she's fallen into a trap from which she can't get out.
However, to be honest, Satella wasn't flustered at all. Instead, she felt like she was in debt and therefore the boss.
...This is probably what they mean by "the more debts you have, the less burden you carry."
In conclusion, Satella will now have to choose one of these three planes to complete her mission.
If we were to choose based on the order of time, Satella would naturally have to go to the world of "Akame ga Kill!".
If it were a matter of personal preference, Satella would definitely choose to go to the world of "A Certain Magical Index".
However, Satella ultimately chose the world of "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!"
The reason is simple.
"Akame ga Kill!" is also known as "Slay the Sisters". As the saying goes, there are wrong names, but no wrong nicknames. You can tell from this nickname that any pretty girl in this anime is really in danger. One wrong move and she could die a violent death.
As for whether Satella is a pretty girl or not—
