"She's going to help the people of Regulus." "Yes. Wherever people must live in fear and oppression. Where the chains of injustice and violence bind the heart. Who will answer the desperate call for help?" Sophia-sama and her faithful Beastman Companion Wolf!

This needs the "scifi" tag. Promising story.

"If you want to date me, you have to bring me a magic tool that satisfies me" You mean, like, from Hitachi?

Yes, but think of the publicity! Not just the "Mithril Coated Set", it's now the Exclusive Dragon-Slayer Cooking Set! He should definitely get a complimentary set from the company, plus the Solid Mithril Ginsu.

While "vintner" and "wine maker" and "wine merchant" are casually used interchangeably, the vintner is supposed to be the manager of a winery who oversees growth and harvesting grapes. They may also be involved in marketing/sales, though (I am a little uncertain about that part. It's been a...

The glass bottles that are being used are just too thin-walled. The stoppers are probably only barely adequate as well, although the thickened lip of the opening reinforces the neck to let the stoppers sit very tightly. A thicker glass bottle might do better, just as a champagne bottle is able...

Lightly grilling fish won't heat the interior meat enough to kill parasites, though. I think that there are regulations that require fish intended for raw consumption to have been frozen for one to seven days at -20C, which works out OK for factory ship tuna. Tuna caught by fishing boats are...

Cryo-vac packed boneless and skinless chicken breast. Such a cheat! Any other place trying to use chicken breast would have to pluck, scald, gut, and burn pinfeathers. Then they would need to find uses for the rest of the chicken in the day's menu, since it would go bad. Bones and feet would be...

OK. Is Helmina expecting a second child, and more time has passed than I though, or is that little girl asking about a little sister maybe Eva's little sister who has kind of 'adopted' Helmina's expected baby? Sometimes this story has timeskips that confuse me.

Nice. It's hard when a parent's expectations, however well-meaning, cause them to be controlling.

Aah! Herr Gernot and his flinty heart of gold.

I was really hoping for his waitress to give off a tell so he would recognize the "squid-helmed mercenary" serving him so attentively. I mean, it would be unpleasant if he peed his pantaloons right there, but it would have been hilarious.

Yes. I'm sure that Max has a regent to take care of things until he is older. Meanwhile, he is given an education. Hildegard is probably also well educated for a child her age, and may be receiving instruction on managing social affairs, as well as how to fulfill the traditional role of the...

Hans needs a hat. He can't be in the kitchen with his hair all out like that. It must be a strange thing to teach modern hygienic standards and practices, and then foodservice standards, to a 17th century type guy. For that matter, I wonder what he makes of things like piped gas and water and...

Eleanora needs a bodyguard if she's going to walk the town at night. She's the head of a shipping company and a woman, so a doubly-attractive target.

Nobu's always has fresh vegetables, even in winter. They have fresh and edible seafood even in summer. That must be quite a mystery to the customers (maybe part of the 'witchcraft' rumor), who would normally be reduced to the contents of the root cellars in the winter, and only dried and salted...

Samue look like rugged scrubs. They do look comfortable.

I think the Romans used to use lead deliberately to sweeten wine. It might not have been an attempt at poisoning, but an accident of ignorance.

Too confusing. Too much intrigue. I read manga to escape such things in real life. Otherwise I'd be reading the news or something. I hope there's some comic relief coming soon.

Gaah! I know! What a surprise and disappointment! Goddammit! Where's the Ancient Dragon Waifu that I was expecting since it announced that it could transform!
