The Other World Dining Hall (WN)
Menchikatsu
"... what is this?
Sarah, a treasure hunter currently on sale, reached her 'destination' and raised her voice flashly to what was there.
A city of abandoned mines where legendary treasure hunter William-Gold, who died five years ago, says he spent his late years.
He lived in this city, where iron was dug and missed a long time ago, because he secretly hid some of the countless treasures he had in his hands in his lifetime in abandoned mines.
There were rumors like that.
Either way, it's like a Yatai story.
William's family… the Gold family is still a big merchant with William's legacy in hand, and at least officially, there is no record of William saying that he had hidden property.
Nonetheless, Sarah visited the abandoned mine because Sarah got William-Gold's late diary from the moment.
According to the diary, since moving to this city, William has been visiting abandoned mines precisely every seven days.
What it says is less than words: 'It's Doyo Day. Going Abandoned Mine' was a concise statement, but terribly disciplined emphasis was placed on "Doyo Day" every seven days.
William was bound to visit the abandoned mine on 'Doyo Day' while his body was in motion, and even after falling ill and his body stopped moving, he said, 'Today is Doyo Day. I resent my body for not moving, "the journal says on several occasions.
Besides, it's always just on a multiple of 7 days from the last "Doyo Day".
Once, on the 8th day since the last time I visited an abandoned mine, at that time I have left behind with countless evils a description that says' nothing but legs'.
Sarah and I are young but well-armed treasure hunters.
At least I'm proud that it's not the kind of thing they can't tell from being a gorotzki or a bandit.
That Sarah's idea said.
That this diary is authentic and that the day you should visit the abandoned mine must be the same 'day of doyo' as the day William visited the abandoned mine.
And Sarah dived into the abandoned mine, thinking of William's treasure, which she had yet to see.
William I found a hidden passage that was immediately disguised as impossible for amateurs to find, making maps to the deepest depths while sometimes fighting dangerous cave demons without having to be professionals, and going to the deepest depths of abandoned mines today on "Doyo Day" … face to face with it.
It is a door.
A cat painting and a door lowered with a sign with strange shapes of unknown letters.
Until yesterday, there was no shadow or shape, a door made of black oak trees appeared.
"Door... right?
After checking, there are no traps at the door… it has been confirmed that it is not even locked.
I mean, if you try to get in, I can even get in right now.
"... anyway, doesn't it start with not trying to come in,"
Frequently troubled, Sarah decided to enter.
To face William's legacy today, Sarah has prepared herself as best she can.
I even bought precious healing herbal medicines and tried to equip myself with the best equipment available at the moment.
I don't have a choice but to pull it off now.
"If you lose and expose the corpse, does that mean it was that far... go"
So determined, Sarah opens the door.
[]/tyrin/
Planted inside the door, the sound of a bell rings.
(Alarm!?
Sarah pulled out her favorite dagger, half reflective of the sound.
"Welcome... Customer, don't be such a mess"
Encourage a middle-aged man to dagger with a frightened face against Sarah.
"... what is this?
Sarah squeaked out a second grunt today.
"Cat ya?
"Yeah well. Western cuisine… it's a restaurant."
The owner of this store replied very briefly to Sarah, who behaved as a dagger and asked about this' shop '.
"What's a cook... in the back of such an abandoned mine!?
The man flaunts his shoulder to Sarah, who unexpectedly asks back.
"Abandoned mine?... Oh, did the customer come from Mr. William's 'door'?"
"What door was William using... that?
To the man's words, Sarah comes through the entrance just now… look at the door and say.
It's a black oak door fitted with a big, golden bell mimicking a cat with his right hand up.
"... is it some kind of magic item?
Sarah, who observes it again and sniffs it with powerful magic in its bell, confirms to her husband.
My husband nodded at Sarah's inquiry and answered.
"Yeah well. I don't really understand it either.
I'm talking about a regular grandfather here who twists and bends everything in time and space and creates a number of 'doors' to different worlds.
Cancer only occurs once every seven days. "
"... different worlds? Is this a different world?
That's what they say, and Sarah checks inside the store again saying she calls herself a different world.
Fairy country in the world of demons, underworld, heaven, mirrors… There are several worlds in Sarah's world that are called 'different worlds'.
There is no doubt about the existence of different worlds.
But I'm not convinced that this is the place to be.
"It's nothing normal... but it's nothing."
But look again in the eyes of the dealer's treasure hunter, and Sarah lightly overturns the conclusion.
This place was too far apart compared to Sarah's known 'cook'.
Apparently, this is a room that was cut through an underground room, and there are no windows.
But it is very bright because the spheres mounted on the ceiling, unlike the fire, perhaps emitting magical light, illuminate the area brilliantly.
The tables and chairs arranged are well maintained and show glossy shine.
Arranged on that table are tiny watermarks of clear glass bottles and ceramics in neat shapes, which are expected to be quite expensive.
Unless it's an obvious luxury store, it's an unlikely interior, but it doesn't have the appearance of a servant coming out.
Apparently, this store is chopped up by a guy on his own.
"No, it's a very normal store over here... what do you say? Why don't you eat?
It's quite early for lunchtime, and I'm free. "
"... right. Shall I take it?"
For a moment, I suspect the trap but I remember and recollect how I came here.
This is a place where William was supposed to be very obsessed, a restaurant of different worlds.
I was purely interested in that dish, which would have fascinated William.
"Good. Sit down, then."
That said, the man pulls into the back once.
"Well... what comes out of cooking in different worlds?
... I'd be in trouble if something weird came out. "
Sitting in the right chair, Sarah checks what's on the table.
Arranged on the edge of the table, in a glass bottle you can see red liquid, grains that are probably salt, and a stick of wood pointing at its tip.
Porcelain has a plaque on it that represents what it is, but Sarah doesn't know who it is because it's written in a letter she can't read.
"Customer, can you read Samanak?
I was just looking in the ceramic to make sure there was black liquid or white grain inside, and a man comes back and asks.
"Yeah, sure."
To the words, Sarah nods.
Samanak is the most widely used word in Sarah's world.
I can't seem to read or write this, so I can't work with a head like a treasure hunter.
"Good. Here's the menu… take your time."
That said, the man puts down a table of contributions written in Samanak, a corner where he can ask about the finesse, and a clear glass cup with ice filled water.
"... a little. I didn't ask for water, did I?
Blaming it, Sarah says grumpy.
I'm pretty sure I'm thirsty, and I thought about asking for water first, but I don't know what kind of damage I'd do if I'd allowed it to imitate like a push sale.
When it comes to paying, it is Sarah's parents' teaching, who are merchants, whether they are cautious or not.
If it's Sarah's common sense, a piece of clear iced water that you can't get without magic will be taken with silver coins.
I can't wait to be pushed and sold something like that.
But the man laughs at Sarah's question like that.
"Oh, lemon water is a service. It's free. Why don't you mind? There's an alternative, so feel free."
With that said, the man returns to the kitchen and begins to cook in a position where Sarah can be seen.
"... what is it? This store."
Apparently, this place is really a different world.
Once again, Sarah recognizes that and opens her cup.
"... you're so cold and delicious"
Lemon water seems to have a faint mixture of fruit juice, with refreshing flavors spreading to the mouth.
A reviving flavor for Sarah, who has walked extensively through a smelly abandoned mine.
It seems free for now, so don't hesitate to drink it up and open the menu.
Written there in familiar Samanak… a number of unidentified dishes.
"Uh-huh... I know about roasted beef and braised beef soup... but I don't know anything else."
View a dish with a description of the name of the dish and what it looks like.
As far as this is concerned, there are many dishes with comedy, a type of vegetable.
That and a dish fried in oil covered with crushed bread powder.
... None of them are in Sarah's common sense, just unusual dishes.
"Honestly which is better... ah"
I noticed that menu where I couldn't make a decision and was having trouble.
Daily fixed meals.
Apparently it changes every day, the recommended dish of the day.
About 2 copper coins are cheaper than other dishes.
"... yeah"
Look at that, Sarah decides to ask for it.
If you don't know which dish tastes good anyway, choose one with me.
Then I thought it would be good to cook cheap.
"... Sir, have you decided?
"Yes. Get a daily meal."
Sarah orders the dishes from her husband, who sees that the order has been made.
"Yes. You're on a daily basis. Please wait a moment."
"Oh, hey."
Listen to that, stop your husband trying to get back to the kitchen, and Sarah asks.
"What?
"By the way, what's today's day shift?
I don't know his name, but I ask him once.
Besides, the guy thinks a little...
"Oh, today... oh, I guess this guy's on edge too"
I laugh bitterly when I realize it and tell the menu.
"Today's day off is menthikatsu... that's your favorite dish, Mr. William"
Once upon a time, the name of a dish that William particularly preferred.
I can hear the oil blowing up from the kitchen.
Listening to the sound, Sarah organizes the information.
(First of all, the reason William-Gold lived in that city late in life... that's for sure)
Only once every 7 days… you can probably only visit 'Doyo Day' where William says it is, a suspicious dining room.
From the information, first of all, there is no doubt that the reason William deliberately decided to live alone in a lonely abandoned mining city would be this dining room.
(Thinking about it, are the dishes here... better than the fancy shops in Wangdu?
The treasure that William possessed in his lifetime and the grand mansion, built with gold earned from the commerce that began with it in his hands, is in the Wang capital.
Anyway, in Wangdu, where people and things gather, there are also restaurants that serve delicious delicacies.
Moreover, when it came to William, he was known both as King's Capital and as one of the finest wealthiest.
If it was about meals, there would have been enough money to stir up luxury.
I don't know how much it is because you're going to live for this dining room despite it.
Think so, Sarah waits for the food to come.
And after a while.
"Thank you for waiting. It's a set meal."
The man who finished cooking arranges several plates.
(... I see, it's definitely a different world dish)
Look at the content of the dish and recognise that this is a restaurant in another world.
So much so that there was a line of dishes out of Sarah's common sense.
Two large brown chunks, as big as adult fists, make a pussy sound, are served on a single large plate at the front.
Just around the corner is served with warm vegetables and pasta juices intertwined with four chopped fruits and some white sauce, as well as thinly chopped leafy vegetables, which remain raw.
Two pieces of bread are served on another plate. Is it a chunk of butter that accompanies it nearby?
And served in a bowl is a soup with chopped oraniers and plenty of finely chopped smoked meat.
Curlulululu...
Sarah's belly bug, who had not eaten anything since morning, rings.
My husband laughed and said to Sarah, blushing unexpectedly at the sound.
"Bread and soup are free to substitute, so tell me when you want them.
Besides, the Menchi Cutlet is good when eaten with sauce and lemon juice. "
That being said, one of the ceramics… points to a water pointing with a blue lid.
Slow your chin down.
That's all I'm saying, my husband also pulls into the back of the kitchen.
And there was only Sarah in the dining room and a set meal of menthikatsu that smelled delicious.
"... what is this!? Yum!?"
First Sarah accidentally raised her voice to the unexpected flavor, having somehow included a soup in her mouth that could be expected to taste.
The sweetness of onions and the taste of dried meat… that's good.
That was the only soup that seemed to contain countless varieties of vegetable and meat flavors.
Unexpectedly drink up all at once.
First, the soup alone tasted incomparable with the restaurants around it.
"Wow... that's so soft. This"
Bread next.
I'm amazed at the bread, which is incredibly soft in common sense.
It's fluffy, and instead of the black bread Sarah eats on a daily basis, it's softer than the white bread she had at home.
... Besides, it was white bread as a matter of course.
Just apply the butter, it's delicious enough.
This also flattened in an instant.
"Hey! Bread and soup, can I get an alternative!?
"Yes, sir."
Tell her husband so, and Sarah finally gets to the main thing.
A chunk of brown mystery... finally a knife and a fork on the mench cutlet.
Drink the sawdust and spit.
Bread and soup alone is the main course of a delicious enough restaurant.
How long had suspicions turned to expectations?
Sarah carefully, slicing the menthikatsu in a big bite.
Making a crisp noise, the knife enters, and the cuts overflow with juicy gravy.
Looks like a finely chopped meat dish to see the cross section.
I carry it in my mouth, hoping to see what it tastes like.
"... wow"
That's all I can say.
Not so much, it was delicious.
Spread in your mouth is plenty of gravy.
That mixes with a light textured coat and unwinds in my mouth.
Exquisite addition and subtraction meat with salt and pepper sharp, but never too sharp.
That invites Sarah into a wonderful world of delicacies.
"With that said... you said it would be delicious to sprinkle with lemon and sauce"
I remember my husband's words after instantly dropping half of the mench cutlet, round one, into my stomach.
Carefully cut the mench cutlet, which is now one left, in half, and Sarah takes the blue watermark.
Tilt gently toward the mentch cutlet and the dark brown sauce zeroes out of the water and goes on the mentch cutlet.
Then a bright yellow fruit served in the wrong place on the menthi cutlet… squeeze the lemon and sprinkle the juice.
Mench cutlets suck juice and just get a little softer.
Then Sarah carries Menchkatsu into her mouth again...
Then there was silence.
If I had time to say extra words, I would have liked to taste them at all, but for that reason.
Sauce with intricate flavour and refreshing sour lemon.
The menthikatsu to which it was added is God.
It was precisely the dish of God who said he would live in heaven.
Then Sarah replaced the mench cutlets with soup and bread (my husband told me on the way that it was delicious even if I pinched it in bread. It was a fact) and I tasted it until I was comfortable with it, ate to the point that I couldn't eat any more, and finally put the fork down.
"Huh... that was delicious."
Speaking frankly, place one piece of silver coin and several pieces of copper coin that will be the price.
"Maido... and miss, can you ask for this?
I saw that and made sure the price was right, and my husband had given it to Sarah.
"What's this?
It's a lunch box.
Laughing a little lonely, my husband tells me what's inside.
"Mench cutlet sandwich. Mr. William, when you come here, you always asked for this with a Mench Cutlet fixing meal.
I made it unexpectedly because the young lady eats the mench cutlet so deliciously.
I'll make it a service for today, so take it.
It's good when it's cold, but the sun doesn't shine, so eat early. "
"... okay?
Sarah confirms with surprise at the man's offer.
I don't feel like eating boulder because my stomach is full right now, but it tastes like I'd like to eat it again if I got hungry.
"Yes, when I decided to treat Mr. William today,"
"Well, I won't hesitate to take it."
Nodding, Sarah gets it in a paper bag.
Still warm, a paper bag with a hint of sauce stimulates my appetite just a little despite my belly being full.
"I'll go then... see you later"
"Yes, we look forward to seeing you again"
Say a word, Sarah heads to the exit.
A familiar abandoned mine that spreads in front of an open door with chillin chillin and noise.
"Oh yeah..."
I can hear my husband from my back.
"Mr. William, at the end...?
"I hear he was a freshman. I think I've regretted not being able to come here."
The door closes at the end of the word.
At the same time, the doors disappeared and the silence of the abandoned mines returned around.
"Legendary Treasure Hunter, The Last Treasure..."
Sarah looks back as she nods her tongue to her memory here.
"... I see it's a William-Gold treasure."
When I was younger, I was very poor, William… remembering the story that my great-grandfather, who had very little knowledge, was quite meaty.
Sarah Gold, a young treasure hunter on sale, rushed home looking forward to her next visit to Doyo Day.
