Riot Grasper

"Ooh... wow. I'm also convinced that you should come once, as the king said."

Fourth week of July, Saturday.

He arrived in Horn, the king's capital of Richelle, on an itinerary of two days after leaving Melbeil.

A shared carriage would have taken more than twice as many days, but thanks to Luke's legs, he enjoyed his comfortable journey. Luke the Scale Dragon bought with a lot of money at a Melbail beast rider, but I'd say that decision wasn't wrong.

Running down the streets stretching north from Melbeil to Wang Capital, many countryside were seen around, and several cities of that size could be confirmed there.

But the Wang Capital, which is currently in my sight, may be large enough to fit all those villages and cities together.

- A big city where hundreds of thousands of people live.

My first impression was like that.

Demographically speaking, it may not even go as far as a large city when it comes to the feeling of previous life, but it looks extra large because of its low population density per land area.

Or have my senses become familiar with this world, I'm pretty sure it's a big city.

The capital, stretching along the sea, seemed to develop around rivers flowing into the sea, with numerous waterways endlessly present throughout the city.

Beneath the bridge connecting the brick-built private houses, we see enough waterways for a few small boats to pass through, travelling with supplies and people.

Water Capital...... something like that. It's a romantic sight.

Speaking of which, I'm still on the lookout on that waterway.

Riding all over the city is not separately prohibited, nor is it a problem.

Or the pedestrian aisle was crowded, and riding Luke was going to take the opposite time, so we dived into the waterway.

I didn't think the benefits of Luke being both surface and surface would survive here.

My body gets a little wet, but I don't care about the smell of water, so it is presumed that management of domestic drainage etc is decent.

... It's a relief.

Shall we relax and swim in the waterway and head to the inn while visiting the city?

Some of the majestic buildings thought to be churches, while in the distance we also saw buildings that would be royal palaces. There are other circular buildings like the arena, etc. - constant buildings that attract interest.

"Ooh..."

Along the way - the sunset begins to set on the horizon, burning the sea red.

Around where the sun went down and dimmed, but I never felt anxious.

Because at regular intervals, soft lights like pockets of phosphor began to illuminate the whole city.

I'm just wondering how the hell it works.

Not even 'dazzling', but the lighting that gives you peace of mind is not due to oil. It wasn't seen in Melbail.

"Somehow, it might have been worth coming just to see these sights"

- I managed to reach my destination and ordered Luke to leave the waterway, even though I was about to get lost.

Basha! Luke, who jumped out of the water with much more momentum, puts me down and then tries to shake my body to scatter water droplets.

"You... on purpose"

"Ku."

... I'll dry my clothes wet in the water later, for now I'll secure the inn.

It's supposed to be where the inn that's building right now before me was taught.

The name engraved on the sign is - "Taste Man Pompong Ko Pavilion".

Yeah...... apparently for sure.

It was Mr. Dario who told me what to hide from this inn.

I went around saying hello to the people I took care of when I left Melbeil, but Dario told me if I was going to the Wang capital, Horn, why not stay here.

When I asked why, I was just scratching my head so that it could illuminate for some reason... but it is quite a fine inn.

The building is larger here, although it's three floors as well as the "Full Stomach Oyaji Pavilion" I took care of in Melbail.

Is every room designed to be spacious?

... I looked up at the inn and was bogged back at me with the shock of something bumping into my body.

"Oops. Excuse me. Are you hurt?

"Oh, it's okay. I was in your way."

The only thing standing in front of the inn is getting in the way. Would a man with a large barrel on both shoulders be an employee of this inn?

"Hey, good. Er... Are you a possible guest planning to stay?

"Yep, that one too...... no!?"

"What? Something on my face...?

The moment the man's face, hidden in the barrel, was exposed, I leaked my surprise.

The other person also raises doubts about something.

A man's outfit is more than ten centimeters taller than mine. I can tell you have a lot of muscle strength at the time you hold two heavy barrels at the same time.

But that's not where I was surprised.

Though it's not the mouth beard, it's the stern face. But the tone is Gentle flavored with no intimidation at all.

... the guy who flavored me with a gap similar to this, no... I know the jerk.

If I shaved the hair of a man in front of me, I'd look just as good as I thought I could reproduce that man's youthful appearance.

I don't even have to use Bandit's Eyes.

but I want to make sure.

This eye was specifically granted to me when I was reincarnated into this world - Ealis - but it's a convenient special ability to identify simple items and grasp the status of the object.

... Again.

My family name is Fort...... this guy would definitely be Mr. Dario's son.

Is this what you were embarrassed to ask me why I would recommend this inn?

You're also a parent and child where you possess good cooking skills.

"Um, are you sure you're okay?

"Huh!? Ah... with a little surprise. By the way, is the inn room empty?

"... yeah, I'm in charge of the kitchen, wait a minute - Stella, you got a minute?

Mr. Uranium, who opens the door of the Tasteful Pompong Ko Pavilion and goes inside, put the barrel on the wall before calling someone's name.

Apparently, this inn also serves as a cafeteria and liquor store on the ground floor, and the woman who was serving looks back at this one.

"Huh. Oh, sir? Can you just wait over there for a moment? I'll be right back with the accommodation process."

Due to the sunset, the dining room is crowded with guests and diners. A woman called Stella was also busy moving around. Mr. Uran has pulled into the kitchen, too, and let's just say we wait here a lot.

... Hmm. The customers who drop their meals down their throats - look full. Mr. Uran said he was in charge of the kitchen, so this seems to be something we can expect.

Cooking skills, although not extended to Mr. Dario, were quite high.

Jiuru.

"- Thank you for waiting. Then please fill out this form."

After completing the lodging process at the reception, I take a good look at Stella.

Thin peach hair is doughed up for easy movement, the smile of an iron wall that doesn't break her smile all the time, working in an apron in a beautiful outfit, she can be described as exactly a billboard daughter.

Nightly prices are incredibly high, 600 Dallas per night.

Based on the location of Wang Du and the full range of amenities such as baths, it would be reasonable.

"Do you two run this inn?

"No way. It's the general who runs it. The scary-faced cook from earlier - it's called uranium, but both me and uranium are hired. Oh, by the way, I'm Stella."

Apparently, the general is currently bedmaking in the guest's room.

Apparently, it was decided that Billboard Daughter would be better served, and Stella has her cheeks polyed so that she can illuminate them.

Age is twenty. Older, but perhaps a woman whose adjective is more cute than beautiful.

"I don't think so either... all the time, the customers are taking the horseman, right? The Inn will be charged separately, but you can also keep the horseman."

Looks like Stella, who checked the form, found it checked with a horseman.

"Oh, please. It's connected to the outside now."

Stella nodded and spoke to the kitchen.

"Ulang, I'm going over to the Riding Beast Hall for a little while, so I'm gonna need some help."

- After I went to deposit Luke with the Riding Beast Hall, which is co-located in the Inn, I decided to have dinner in the dining room.

Stella, who brought me the dishes,

"The cuisine arm of uranium is a little something."

I say and arrange the plates on the table.

First, I swept the soup in my mouth.

This... is potato cold soup.

Potatoes that absorb the nutrients in the earth and are abundantly fat will probably be sent from the countryside to the markets of Wangdu. Add this sweetness. Potatoes are properly cooked and exquisitely sweet to blend in.

It also has an impeccable flavour, prepared with bouillon stewed with meat and vegetables. There's not even a minute of disturbance in salting. The overall taste is also tightened during the last cooling trip.

It is also a troublesome habit to soak hot baked bread in this cold soup. Your stomach is swollen.

... even though the main tomato-based pasta is still holding off.

Regardless, this isn't just tomato pasta either.

Utilizing the characteristics of the capital along the sea, combine various seafood products - squid, shrimp, shellfish, etc. - with salt and garlic, sautéed in vanilla and simmered in tomato sauce. Because of the sourness of the wine, it must be used for hidden flavors.

This can't be delicious.

... or I feel like I've been able to train my taste quite a bit thanks to Dario's cooking.

- Mr. Uranium's cooking arm seemed enough to please my stomach.

"Pfft, it was delicious"

After dinner, I'll share my honest thoughts.

Guests were getting sparse looking around because they enjoyed the meal slowly.

"I'd be glad to hear you say that."

"Uranium is an amazing dish."

It seems that Mr. Uranium, who seemed busy in the kitchen, also could afford to show his face with Mr. Stella in this way.

"It's just awful. I'm good at fishing, too. The main thing today is that I've caught plenty of sea bliss."

"Yes, sir. Lower the dishes, don't interrupt."

Forcefully blocking Mr. Uran's story, Mr. Stella wraps up the empty dishes.

"Totally... Oh, by the way, what were you surprised about me? I don't think I remember seeing her anywhere."

"Aren't you surprised at the look of uranium? Oh, they're attacking me."

"That can't be true. Stella, keep your mouth shut for a second."

"Really? I thought so when I first met uranium? I'm scared of faces."

"You."

... You're close, these two.

When Mr. Uran took a step forward, Mr. Stella took the dishes to the washroom in a quick move.

"- No, it was similar. Someone I know and Mr. Uranium."

"Oh, no way..."

I'll make it easy, but I'll tell you about the days I took care of Mr. Dario at the Full Oyaji Pavilion.

"Oh well. Your father and mother are doing well, aren't they? I came to Wangdu four years ago with a culinary training course, but I sent letters to my dads a few times a year... so it would be nice to hear from them."

Uranium, who has been serving dishes to Mr. Dario since he was a child, dreams of leaving his own shop someday.

This is all I have when I'm still young.

Whether you open an inn or a restaurant specializing in cooking, your dream will surely come true.

"You may still be immature compared to your father, but if you're staying in Horn, take your time and get tired at our inn"

Knock... the gap between the appearance and the contents is really intense with all the parents and children.

Decided to stay at Taste Mang Pong Ko Pavilion for a while...

"Huh, but if uranium was serving, customers would run away. Looks like the people who come to us are getting used to it."

Stella, who was coming back from the washroom at some point, squeaks bossy.

"I specialize in kitchens. The love officer would have decided to let a girl like Stella. Why don't we hire him at dawn when he opens the shop?

"... when I think about it"

Stella, who flushed the invitation with unsympathetic words, turns back her curly heels.

Trying to follow it, Mr. Uranium also went back to the kitchen.

Even though we're running out of customers, we're not done yet.

Moistening his throat with fruit water, he looks up to the ceiling of the inn, which has a blow-out structure.

... and nevertheless...

"- Two easy to understand..."

Nah......

I turn to the voice whispered inadvertently beside me.

There he stood, trying to make a woman with a good width smile.

He covers his hair with a white headscarf and wears an apron from the waist down, just like Mr. Stella.

"Did I surprise you? I run this inn, Magdalena. You're the first face I've ever seen... you're an adventurer?

I nod honestly because the general who caught my eye on the plate that was lifting around my neck asked me.

"Right. You shouldn't be too impotent. As you may have already said around uranium, keep it slow with us."

"Yes. Um, that was..."

"Oh, you noticed that, too? If you look around, you'll find out. I wish that kid was honest too... well, if we can both quit together when uranium is independent, it's a huge damage as far as this one goes"

The general leaves with a happy laugh.

Well......

In what Uranium said earlier, Stella's cheeks were stained red and thin.

If you look at that, you'll know how many kids I am.

But it is strange.

Normally, the moment they show a sight like that, the bursting magic that has increased its magic intensity to the maximum - it's not stingy (yawning) to activate the "Flame of Jealousy (Explosion)" (* Unavailable), but I don't really feel that way.

Immediately after enjoying a delicious dish, you may feel generous.

Phew... this is the only time I'm gonna miss it.

And, as a matter of fact, I have no right to speak out, so let me watch you gently.

Rolling over my tongue a dessert with condensed milk on a large grape specialty from the Horn region, I took a seat to think about my plans for tomorrow.

- It is the beginning of a new life.
