A Chronicle of Life in a Different World
Episode 485: Home Part 2
It's been a long time since I came back to the abandoned city of Laval. It was still a place of calm.
I haven't seen Corona in a long time. Reurus was baffled in front of a girl (corona) with a soft, gentle smile just like he had when he first met her.
…… Mr. Reurus, what's wrong?
Corona leans her neck toward a slow-responsive revus, even though she exchanges reunion greetings. At that time, I saw flax-coloured hair stretching “to the waist” shaking smoothly.
(What... what is this feeling... something's wrong...)
One step closer to the corona with a strange face, Reurus stares still. Corona stared back at the reaction of the Reurus with a similarly strange face, but eventually she began to touch her face as if she had noticed something.
"Oh, did you get dirty? I'm sorry, I was in the middle of cleaning."
A corona that touches its face in such a way that it is illuminated. But it wasn't dirty, and Reurus accidentally shook his neck sideways.
"It's not like that... Corona"
"Yes"
"Corona... right?
Yes?
Though I don't know what I'm talking about, Reurus naturally asked.
Linen hair that stretches to the waist is glossy because it is properly cared for, and the two knots that were once fastened with the peach ribbon given by Reurus are shaken small. The brown eyes had soft light to represent the person's personality, and the whole face had a soft atmosphere.
Clothes are worn when working at Dominic's restaurants, long skirts on long-sleeved shirts. I put a pretext on it to avoid dirt, but nothing in particular seems to have changed.
Nothing seemed to have changed - "That's impossible.”
Is it because it's been a long time since I've seen you again, or have you just not noticed? Compared to when we first met, the corona was growing.
Previously, it was slightly over 150 centimeters tall, and whether it reached 160 centimeters or not. Cautious body ups and downs are also gaining richness, and although there was a rustic atmosphere like flowers blooming in the field when we first met, we can now glimpse a definite "flower”.
(It's been almost two years since we met, and you're growing up... it's called Eliza and Meer, and you're late to notice anyway.)
Before Corona became more feminine, Reurus unexpectedly roared. Sometimes I didn't see it with “such eyes”, but there is also the fact that Reus himself is growing in height, so it may have been difficult to notice.
"No, I'm sorry. I was just surprised because Corona was prettier."
"Ah, that's why... eh?
It was a realuse that honestly said what she thought, but once Corona nodded and leaned her neck to wonder if she had heard it wrong.
"You've grown in height and hair... I see, I see. But your hair was so beautiful... no, it was beautiful, yeah."
"Ah, you know? Mr. Reurus? Uh... well, why are you suddenly praising me so much... eh?
"Suddenly, it's been cute since before!?
It was a real face praiseworthy realus, but the tawashi flew from the kitchen and hit him directly on the forehead. It was a revulsion that blinked at the tingling pain and shock, but it sparkled when I saw Dominic coming out with a stunning sigh from the kitchen.
"What are you suddenly whispering about my daughter when you think I haven't seen her in a while?"
"While... it's been a long time, Oni-san. I didn't mean to dictate that Corona became a beauty."
"Next time I'm gonna throw a knife?
Speaking in a low voice, Reurus inadvertently closed his mouth. Even if a knife flew in, it could be stopped, even if it was stabbed in an acute condition, but Dominic wouldn't be able to disobey it.
Dominic sighed deeply against Reurus, who raised his hands and showed no resistance.
"At all... you hit me in the head while I wasn't watching you for a while?
"I didn't hit my head, but my torso was ripped out... oh, I wonder if that's what caused it..."
Reurus answered Dominic's words lightly, but his belly is filled with magic from the black spheres he fought in the town of Lemona. There was no such thing as a blow to the head, but Reurus reflected that his mouth would be lighter.
If the stranger or extra person is the opponent, tighten your mind, but when the opponent becomes Dominic or Corona, there are no shards such as vigilance as a realus, and the truth came out.
So, what, you're back here and you're done with Natalia?
"It took longer than I thought to come back..." Hey, there's a lot I'd like to talk to you about, but please let me eat first! I can't eat Ooi and Corona in the other town, so I'm in trouble!
"Me and Corona are in this town. It would be strange to eat in the other town."
When Reurus asked Dominic to cook with his eyes shining, Dominic laughed small after laughing with his nose.
"Is that appetite the same?"
"No, I don't know if I've changed my appetite... but I'll eat this dish even if my stomach rips."
"You don't have to eat that much... but I'm still preparing it. First of all, take off your great armor at home. Show them the rest of town. And...."
That said, Dominic points behind Reurus.
"Not since Eliza and the others were in a good mood."
Huh?
When Reurus turned around, there was Eliza who inflated her cheeks and Meer who sharpened her lips.
After receiving the keys to his home from Corona, Reurus, who had left his luggage and armor for a while, stretched his legs around the abandoned city of Laval to greet his adventurers and the city's inhabitants.
I didn't know when I would be back once I left the abandoned city of Laval, so I wanted to speak to my fellow towns as much as possible.
At that time, it was impressive that the residents of the town who saw Tina who had been entrusted with supervision on behalf of Natalia, who had a job as lord, were about to shake the edge of their mouth and burst out.
Though the Spiritual Church also showed its face, it also found that Gilba did not appear and did not return to the abandoned city of Laval.
So I asked Esther to ask the city of Speranza if Zilba appeared after Reurus and the others had gone to King's Landing, and to tell Rebecca and Chris not to be as violent as possible.
Then I asked Esther if she knew anything about going to King's Landing, but she just looked strange. As for Reurus, I thought Sophia knew something because she was biting one of the Sylas, but she didn't seem to know anything to Esther, her sister.
That's how Reurus, who talks around and occasionally squashes time while taking Eliza's mood, waits to open before heading to Dominic's restaurant.
Dominic's restaurants seem to be booming as usual, but even with the return of the Reurus, guests gathered more than usual and developed into a commotion.
It's a nostalgic time for a revulsion, but it's still warm and noisy. When you come to Dominic's restaurant, you must sip the salt soup you are eating and nod satisfactorily.
(Yeah, this is it after all, this is it. Hopefully Ohsan will open the shop in Speranza... is that for the moment?
Rather than a shop, the lord's mansion has not been built, and moreover, we have not been able to produce enough food to relocate the residents. For the first time, potatoes and root vegetables are planted and grown, but no matter how much Dwarves help us, we will still be able to obtain a stable yield.
There is support from neighboring aristocracy and food brought by merchants, but it is suspicious to say that food is divided for shops from there.
(I can't even make it myself... how can I make this flavor?)
The flavor is very simple, and the ingredients in it are not just vegetables and extremely difficult dishes. Even so, it was a taste that was unparalleled and could not be reproduced.
(Maybe because the person making it is Onii-san and Corona... yeah, this taste doesn't change...)
While sipping the third cup of salt soup happily, Reurus glanced at the store.
There is a noise of drinking and singing, but many young men participate in the ratio of people. Some of the remaining adventurers in the abandoned city of Laval participated, but the young men in the neighborhood also seemed to be using Dominic's restaurants, and their appearance was dazzling.
Men will be around fifteen years old below and twenty years old above. Speaking of fifteen years old, Mataroi is considered to be of age, but what is the purpose of many of the visitors?
Of course, some people are coming to the store to try Dominic's dishes. At least Reurus is the chicken.
(Hmm....)
With a wooden spoon in the fifth cup of salt soup, Reurus roars small inside.
The men's purpose is very simple and seems to be the corona in charge of the service. Ask to cook, talk if you pass by, and call out if you want to stay far away.
After a while, Dominic comes out, but to a certain extent, he's in the customer service. Corona responds with a smile, and Reurus turns to the kitchen to get a replacement after drinking the soup.
Hey, I'll have some soup.
"Whoa... no, wait, that's just too much salt. Keep it that way."
"Eh...."
It was a revulsion trying to get to the sixth cup of soup, but Dominic stopped me and looked desperate. The face of Lemona who fought Slaus in the city of Lemona and was pierced by a black sphere did not have such despair.
"I'll make it again tomorrow, so hang in there. You're not leaving tomorrow, are you?
"Yes, but... uhh, it's about time I was full, so I'll have fun tomorrow..."
It was a slender revulsion that dropped his shoulders, but Dominic jumped one eyebrow like he remembered a question.
"You think I'm full? Is that you?
"Ugh. Recently I've been feeling like this... I think I'll be back when my magic is exhausted."
From past experience, Dominic twisted his neck.
"I don't know... well, if there's nothing wrong with it, I don't mind."
"For now, it feels like. Well, thank you for dinner."
That's how Reurus tries to pay for it. In doing so, Dominic turned his gaze inside the shop, and then whispered to Reurus.
"Reurus, can we talk a little after we close the shop?
"Hmm? Of course, I'm fine."
Dominic would gladly make time after closing the shop or early in the morning. I was going to say that, but I saw Dominic's serious expression and shut my mouth.
