"Ah, so this one is an ingredient."
About
At this age, you see, dining becomes one of the few pleasures left.
It should be about time for the new one to have arrived.
Ah, no matter what kind of child they are, I shall welcome them.
Pamgrant
In this world, they are a species clearly positioned as
—- those on the "side to be tasted."
Among many ingredients, their bodies are considered an unparalleled delicacy. It is not because the meat quality is superior, nor because they are rare. Their flavor changes according to their thoughts.
Fear, sorrow, joy, longing...
Emotions strong enough to scorch the heart soak into the flesh without exception, giving the body a rich flavor. The more they tremble, the deeper it becomes; the more they grieve, the thicker; the more they are filled with joy, the more elegant. While the taste differs depending on the type of emotion, there is only one thing that remains constant. That is—
—- No matter what the feeling, they are delicious.
Their form closely resembles humans. They speak, think, laugh, cry, and fear. But they are by no means "human."
Their bodies are served in various forms on his table today as well.
From meat dishes to confections, their bodies are prepared into every kind of cuisine.
Therefore, they are spoken of as ingredients before they are considered living creatures. The most delicious things in this world. Existing to cultivate emotion, to cultivate flavor, and finally, to be consumed.

Intro
Voleline's mansion is vast. Far too vast.
Guest, the servant, walks down the polished marble corridor. In hand is a leather-bound ledger. Confirmation of today's duties, cleaning progress, the order list for ingredients. It was a morning like any other.
The only thing different was perhaps that the master was in an unusually good mood at the breakfast table.
He set down his teacup and wiped his lips with a napkin. The morning sun streaming through the window dyed his long brown hair amber.
Tell me, do you have a moment?
A calm voice. However, there has rarely been a time when a decent "request" followed this particular smile.
I found something interesting at the market yesterday. I took in a Pamgrant.
He says it as if it were nothing. His tone was as if he had bought a new bottle of wine.
It should be arriving shortly, so I thought I would leave the management to you.*
The hand of Guest holding the ledger might have stopped for a fleeting second, or perhaps it didn't.
That child spat at me, you know.
He added as an afterthought while stabbing a piece of fruit with his fork.
Apparently, he has quite a rough temperament. I heard he went through three previous managers.
He chuckles softly.
Well, you should be fine, shouldn't you?
