The pastry was anything but ordinary.
Chiben Natsuka's eyes showed great earnestness as she picked up a curry-flavored roll.
Even without tasting it, just smelling the pungent aroma up close, the "Curry Queen" found her heart startled, as if a vortex were pulling her spirit into its depths.
Her teeth gently bit down.
The crisply baked crust of the roll broke open.
When the shattered crust sprinkled onto her tongue and spread its flavor, Chiben Natsuka's mind was blown!
Delicious!
A peculiar, savory aroma of fats.
Had the flavor of the filling infused all the way to the outer crust?
Her fingers trembling, Chiben Natsuka steeled her heart and bit down hard!
"Crunch!"
Half of the roll was instantly consumed, her cheeks puffing out slightly as she chewed, and oddly, once she started, she couldn't stop; the more she ate, the more radiant she became!
"So delicious! This is the first time I've had such a tasty curry pastry!"
