until now I was okay with the story, it had a few good points, but now, slowly, but steadily it's getting bad,
first the trope about I crave for rice/soysauce/miso and not only do I find it, no I also have all the necessary knowledge and means to make the exact food as in my previous life and to top it, really everybody likes it as much as I (that is not meant against asian food, but everyone has other taste, and something completely new will not be accepted from everyone)
second the story with that noble kid: if he wanted to recruit him, why didn't he just send him a formal invitation?!? completely useless suspense and drama
but there were a lot of good story points and I like those scenes with Orst, his cooking attempts and the thoughts about it from his familiars
but that chapter now, no, just no - dear author, please, either make a happy go lucky story, let your mc just explore the world and have adventures, add a little action with monsters and all persons are not worse than some drunkards who like to badmouth people
or
give us all kind of people, good and evil and all that lays between, give us different societies with different laws and habits, I fully for it, even one in which slavery is lawful is okay if you don't let the slaves be happy about it -
but don't give us a mc who is so "good" that he is kinda worse than the villains and that elf who is supposed to be experienced is acting the same...
