Pass the Monster Meat, Milady! - Ep 01

Melphiera is a daughter of Count Ghislain and finally old enough to marry. Unfortunately, she is obsessed with cooking monster meat, considered foul by most of society. At a party arranged by King Langhdeyas, her governess Mrs Talbot urges her to find a husband or risk banishment by her stepmother. As her reputation is already well known, she is shunned by the nobles. A Back-horn attacks the party so she lures it away to save an elderly couple. She is saved by Aristide Galbraith, known as the "Blood-mad Duke" for his hunting obsession, who slays the Back-horn. Aristide is surprised she is not scared, but soon realises she is the infamous "Voracious Villainess". Witnessing her passion and beauty Aristide falls instantly in love and expresses an interest in trying monster meat. Realizing he is not disgusted by her, Melphiera falls in love with him. Aristide invites her to visit his lands where she can freely cook whatever he hunts. Aristides butler Chaos intervenes to prevent a scandal. Before leaving, Melphiera gifts him monster jerky she made from a Skatzbitt, which he and Chaos both find delicious. Departing, Melphiera sincerely hopes she will see Aristide again.
