Have a Meal Before You Go

Khan is free today.

Khan has been doing a lot of work recently, but he's been resting for two days a week with very fast processing capabilities.

First of all, the comics of the 'Godfather Series’ were slowly going on. The manuscript has already been made and will be published in a magazine after the inspection process.

In addition, the storm is still ongoing. It was fun because there were a lot of places to call because it was popular.

Anyway.

On such a free day, Khan used to live buried in comic books or wander around the market.

“Khan.”

“Yes.”

To such a car, Chulho said.

“You, ask Elise to help Borjan and come. ”

“Borjan?”

“Yes."

Who is Borjan the bear in Khan? I thought about it. Obviously, I remember that name.

I thought so, added Chulho.

“Borjan Khalice, Imperial Knight Leader. ”

“Ah-”

Then Khan nods. Borjan was the Imperial Knight Leader who used to come to the diner once.

“So, what can I do for you? ”

“Ah. He wants to have a restaurant. I think I have a lot on my mind. ”

“But?”

“Something about menus, interiors, restaurants, and so on. What are you asking me for? I wish Elise would help me. ”

“Me?”

The Khan's eyes glaze over. Cheolho frowned.

“Hm? You don't need my help, Chulho? ”

“...... ”

Cheolho looks at the slither compartment. Then he tapped the shoulders of the sheep of the Khan.

“...... Maybe I need your help. Just stay out of trouble, okay? ”

“Of course! Just trust me! ”

Cheolho opened the subspace with a bloody smile.

“Qasim.”

“Yes! I've got it ready! ”

Qasim gives out a sack of sacks, answering in an instant. The compartment begins to walk on its cover, carrying it.

Echo comes out of the room, looking at the compartment.

“Where are you going? ”

“Yes, Espan continent. Want to go?”

Echo smiles bitterly, looking at the compartment.

“...... No. ”

The Khan heads back out to the back of the diner.

.

“Here?”

Elise seems excited to have come to Espan like Mo. She looks around and fixes her gaze in one place.

“Seems so.”

Khan replies, stealing his nose.

“What a beautiful view. ”

“Yes.”

Northeast of the Empire.

At the other end of the mountain range, across the high mountain range, the world of pure white looks pitiful. That's the Ice Shelf. A vast glacier that embraces the eastern end of the continent, is always the world of winter.

That's why this side was still maintaining a slightly chilly early spring weather. even though the continent is already in the middle of summer.

Pudding?

Khan flies away, riding Elise on his back in a polymorphic state. Suddenly, she heard the sound of sneezing, raising her body temperature and warming her like a furnace.

Idiot.

Across the high mountains, you see a small town below. Furniture looked a little over 200 and was quite small.

Khan lands quite far from the village and returns to the human race. Polymorphs are good, but every time I get bigger, I get naked.

To solve this problem, you'll need to wear very stretchy clothing, but such clothing will be hard to find.

My father did not change into a dragon. Especially in front of Humans.Then you'll feel ashamed.

I stood at the store at the entrance of the village thinking like that.

I wanted to see it here.

A small house. The sign is empty to make sure it hasn't run yet and that there is room for the sign. And to the left and to the right, a truly secluded village landscape unfolded.

All around the mountain was blocked, and I couldn't see the armor on the other side of the mountain because of the icy winds of the glacier belt. Khan took off his jacket and put it on Elise.

Elise smiles deeply, her eyes puckered.

In front of the shop, there were several sycamore trees. In the big fig tree, there were still wreaths.

I like the vibe.

Khan walks into the store thinking that.

“Welcome.”

You hear a low tone, and you see Borjan Khalyse standing in his apron.

“Oh, Lord Khan? ”

“Yes, hello? ”

“Greetings.”

Borjan bows politely. I thought it was because I was a former knight commander. I had dignity in my body. Elise also greeted politely.

“Cheolho has been helping you for a long time. ”

“Oh, really? Huh, this......”

Borjan scratches his head as if he were ashamed.

“I'm so sorry about this. I asked him a few questions the last time I saw him, and he seemed to care about them. ”

“No, no, no. ”

Him or me.

Inside, it was truly compact. Before it was opened, the interior was still crude wooden.

“What's on your mind? ”

According to Khan, Borjan hesitates a little and opens his mouth.

“Well, I think it's a menu. ”

“Menu.”

Borjan nods.

“First of all, there's a lot of meat growing around here. I think I can try a variety of meat-based dishes. ”

“Why not cook with steak or meat? ”

Borjan nods again to Elise's question.

“That's right. That's what I thought, but I'm a little hesitant about the way the locals eat." ”

Borjan speaks.

“Most people in this town rarely eat ‘fish.' ”

“Fish?”

The column tilts its head.

"Yes, so I really want to feed them fish."

“But there are forests and mountains. So you're saying there's reservoirs and towns and robberies? ”

“Not really. The climate here is really bizarre, keeping it the same as in early spring all year round. ”

“That's right."

“There is no river. Rarely distinguished by all seasons, many mountainous animals do not grow cold, thanks to the early spring and winter weather. The majority of the village's inhabitants are hunting and cultivating small crops for a living. ”

“Mmm-”

“Thanks to you, the only way to taste fish is to leave town and head north or near the capital. By the way, there's a reservoir. Would you like to see?”

“Yes.”

Khan nods, and Borjan takes him to the reservoir south of town.

“It was raining a lot, and the water was running. But here's the problem. ”

Kang Kang!

There was ice in the reservoir. Sometimes the fish you see are tiny minnows. I didn't think there was anything worth eating. Water quality did not look good. A lot of moss in here. It's heavy.

It was a protest that there are no living creatures to eat that moss.

“When it comes to yomam, it's cold, and when summer comes, it's usually frozen. ”

“It's a total mess. ”

It was a roughly understandable word.

It was definitely early spring and early summer, so in autumn or winter, there will be a severe cold.

“Why did you come to this place? ”

Borjan glances at Khan and smiles.

“This is where I come from. ”

* * *

Fish.

Khan was not a fan of rotten fish. Cheolho's food was always delicious, but the idea was that the fish couldn't just be meat.

But sometimes I also want to eat vegetables. Even though I hate vegetables so much, I miss fresh vegetables for about a day.

Perhaps that's what Borjan said, too.

The bear asked.

“Here, how do you get supplies? ”

“Once a month, the Silver Fox Merchants Guild passes through the capital. ”

“How are fish supplied then? ”

“I've tried it a few times, but the fish preservation problem has caused me to use magic and the price has increased too much. ”

“Hmm."

Makes sense.

Khan thought, bear.

Suddenly, Chulho remembers the sack he asked me to bring, and gives it to him.

Inside the sack was a very luxurious knife, a cutting board, and various utensils.

Borjan grins.

“I always owe this to Maze Lycas. ”

“It's okay, it's okay. She likes to sprinkle things like that. ”

The Khan replied with a thoughtful reply and was troubled again.

The car that had been thinking for a long time suddenly tilted its head.

“Elise.”

“Yes?”

Elise looks around the kitchen and says hello.

“You're thinking about cooking fish here. I have somewhere to be. ”

“Yes?”

While Elise was blinking, Khan stepped out of the store and huddled! He ran away.

.

Qasim had another peaceful life today.

His girlfriend's love for kidney water hasn't changed lately, but Qasim can at least have a hot meal.

Also, the sub-space these days is itself, so it feels pretty good. There were no noisy dragons, no damn Spirit King, and no Dwarf girl, so it was peace itself.

Oh, of course.

Until the Khan comes.

“Hic!”

Qasim starts running away from the burinake.

“Hey, hey, hey! Stop!”

“Hiya! Hiya! What's the matter with you? You're making a mess! ”

“Why is this kid looking at me like this? ”

After all, Qasim, who was caught by the Khan, struggled in the air.

“What is it again? ”

“That……"

Khan sighs, gazing at Qasim's boundary glances.

“I know Khan left the Weapons Depot out in the wilderness a while ago and ran away. ”

“...... ”

It's true. I didn't mean to turn it into a field, but I just touched it because I had a nice sword. If it wasn't for the possessed blade called the 'Magic Calypso,’ it would have been a good day.

The Mage Calypso wakes up feeling the energy of the Khan, literally turning the Weapons Depot into an open house five minutes ago. In fact, the sword Calypso was undergoing a cleansing. A few more cleanings would have been a sword, but Qasim could not forgive the wrecking blocks of the process.

“Calm down. No, I'm trying to take something. ”

Kahn said with his mouth shut.

* * *

“Yes, it is. You know, the fish. It's hard to store for long, so you can salt it. They're so lively on Earth that even pickled mackerel is delicious. It's easy to store.”

“Oh, really? ”

Borjan opens his eyes and asks.

“Yes. It's called a mackerel, but it doesn't matter. By the way, the cost savings for distribution will be huge as long as you get the process of picking fish, right? It's increasing conservation rates.”

Borjan nods and starts making burinake notes.

About the time I was discussing recipes and stuff.

Boom!

You hear something exploding from the reservoir.

“Phew!”

Borjan gets up on his feet and reaches for the kitchen.

Support -!

The sword flies into Borjan's hands like it flies through the air. Borjan runs out of the store.

Something must have happened in the reservoir direction.

What happened......

“Huh?"

Borjan rushes toward the reservoir, his head tilting. The ice in the middle of the reservoir opened up in a circle, and the compartment was pouring something like a sack into it.

“Well, what are you doing, Mr. Khan? ”

Borjan asks, Khan quietly gestures at him.

As you get closer, large fish pour down from the small sack. A sack is a small subspace bag that Qasim wears around his waist all the time. It was a coveted object because it had quite a large storage space.

“Huh? Wha, fish? ”

“Yes, this is Melon Fish. Have you heard?”

Melon Fish!

I've heard of it

“They live in the cold. Even when the ice freezes, you eat well in it. They eat moss, so they'll breed here soon. ”

“Ah……! ”

Borjan's face brightens.

“Have you ever tried it? ”

“Oh, no. ”

“Really?"

Khan fishes a young melon fish and delivers it to Borjan.

“Try it. ”

“Like this?”

“Yes."

Borjan hesitates, chewing the young melonfish alive. I felt a bursting melon aroma and unspeakable freshness. The sweetness of the white fish blended so sweetly, it was truly a heavenly flavor.

Khan smiles at him.

“Problem solved, right? ”

.

Borjan shows Khan and Elise out with a sad face.

“You can stay the night. ”

“There you go. Good luck with your business. ”

The Khan turns to look chic. Elise nods, smiling, holding Borjan's hand like that.

“Oh dear.”

Suddenly, I looked back as if I had remembered.

“What's the name of the store? ”

“Oh, yeah. ”

Borjan scratches his head and opens his mouth slowly, shamefully.

“It's a restaurant.”

“Dinner? That's our shop, right? ”

“Yes, it is. ”

Borjan smiles graciously and adds.

“This is the rice restaurant, the Espan continent point. ”
