Dobrynya Nikitch (Lancer)'s Valentine Scene
At the cafeteria…
Nikitich: Hey, Master. Hehe. What's this, you were here all this time.
- “Nikitich-san!”
- “Huh? What's wrong?”
Nikitich: Yes, this is Dobrynya Nikitich.
- “Nikitich-san!”
- “Huh? What's wrong?”
Nikitich: Yes. I was looking for you.
Nikitich: You weren't in your room or the command room, so I went to the simulator and library as well…but I couldn't find you no matter where I went, and I thought that the sun would set before that happened.
- “Maybe we just kept missing each other.”
- “I'm glad that we finally met here.”
Nikitich: I guess so. I made a lot of these so I don't think it'll run out— Although it's quite popular with the children, isn't it? It's smooth, easy to eat, and quite delicious. So with that in mind—
(Huh)
“Wait, Nikitich-san—”
“Did you make something for me?”
Nikitich: That's right! I sure did. I, the valiant Nikitch, took on the challenge of making a foreign treat.
- “Oh!”
- “That’s great!”
Nikitich: …Yes, this was my first attempt. To tell you the truth, I'm not an expert at making these…in fact, I absolutely have no experience at all. Since I often travel alone, I know how to prepare a meal or two, but making treats? That's a different story. I always left that sort of thing to my spouse. But when those treats come from a different land, even I can't say I'm confident that'll turn out great. So at first I thought, “I should ask one of the Heroic Spirits in the kitchen who’s good with making sweets.” But then… My beloved mount? He said something like this.
Insert flashback sequence here
Dragon: Eh? Seriously? You're really going to ask a Heroic Spirit who's good at cooking? Because baking treats seems too much for an amateur like you?
Nikitich: That's correct. Making foreign treats would naturally be a first for me. If I were to serve something bad to Master, it would be a disgrace to my name as a warrior.
Dragon: Aw, well, yeah. While I understand how you feel Master, I don’t think this the right way to go about it.
Nikitich: Hm?
Dragon: Haah… Man, my Master's so cute. Wait, no! Now’s not the time! The feelings behind it are the most important part. Isn't that right?
Nikitich: ！！！！
Nikitich: I-I see, it's about feelings! You're saying I should put my heart into it!
Dragon: Exactly!
Nikitich: Hmm! Hmm hmm hmm! That makes perfect sense! Well done!
Dragon: Right? (Now all that's left is to taste it and make it look like I helped out.)
Nikitich: Alright then, let's begin this challenge right away! I'll need your help for this one!
Dragon: G-Gehhhhhh?!
Nikitich then drags her mount as the flashback ends
Nikitich: So! Here is our finished product!
- “This is…”
- “Luqaimat, a treat from the Middle East.”
Nikitich: It's luqaimat!
- “This is…”
- “Luqaimat, a treat from the Middle East.”
Nikitich: That's right! It's luqaimat!
Nikitich: We've made a lot, so don't be shy. It’s even more delicious with tea!
- “Thank you, Nikitich-san.”
- “I'll dig in!”
Nikitich: Yeah! Hahaha, eat as much as you like!
Valentine’s Gift from Dobrynya Nikitich (Swimsuit).
—A delicious treat from the Middle East, Luqaimat!
—It’s handmade!
While the luqaimat is the main focus, but as a little extra, a chocolate-made Fou-kun and his beloved mount, Dragon, are placed on the plate as well. So in a way, it still qualifies as Valentine’s chocolate.
Apparently they made a huge batch, and the childlike Heroic Spirits who got to try it first absolutely loved it.
At first, she planned to ask one of the kitchen-type Heroic Spirits to make it, but after a single remark from her mount… Nikitich took on the challenge herself!
With plenty of heart poured into it, her special homemade Luqaimat is now complete!
