Transported to a hyper-realistic RPG.
Lesson 669 Information gathering (2)
To hear what the dwarves are saying, do you know a dove? I can't hear it on a straight sphere, so I have to hear it indirectly. Naturally, if the dwarfs did not convey their intentions well, or if there were no one to talk about pigeon husbandry in the first place... they did not get any particularly important information...
However, since the dwarfs became inevitable, they were able to listen to various things. If you can talk about it, you may be able to hear other ways to enter the demon world, and you should think about the story of the dove shepherd as part of the story of going to the demon world.
Of course, it wasn't that I was trespassing in the demon world, and it wasn't bad to try to find a demon tribe that was inside the Zaaganbel.
Starting tomorrow, we should be conscious of gathering information while exploring a few possibilities.
With that in mind, Nil and I walk the streets of The Gumbel, stained with red.
Along the way, she buys some drinks that could be a stubborn snack and returns to the workshop where the Sidorba family awaits.
Welcome back!
As soon as Nil and I return to the workshop, Shurna welcomes us well.
I'm home.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! I'll be waiting inside!" Hurry, hurry! "
I followed Shurna, who was busy gesturing, into the room and headed upstairs.
The second floor is a living space for the Sidorba family, with furniture tailored to the height of the taller dwarfs. However, the space itself is quite large, apparently because other races are planning to enter it.
Overall, it's a big space, but if there's only tall furniture, it's a bit disproportionate... It's like a children's room, if you don't pick a word.
However, all the furniture is made with Dwarf technology, so it is delicate, beautiful, and luxurious like an artwork.
"Welcome back."
When Nil and I headed upstairs, they were already in the room, apparently coming back.
The table is also short, making it look like a slightly larger chabuki table. Suratan and the others are sitting down on a small chair surrounding the desk. On the contrary, Sidorba and the others are sitting in slightly larger chairs, and when they all sit down, they have the same eye level.
"I'm home. Are you already starting?"
Various dishes are already lined up on the table.
“We just brought out what we bought as a souvenir.”
"Thank you so much for buying so many things..."
It seems that the souvenirs they bought exceeded Zinavirna's expectations. There's enough lined up to fill the table, and if I add what Nil and I bought here... I don't know if I can eat it all.
"Hehe! You just need to eat, drink and empty the table!"
"That's how you do it again... you always say you eat too much, so be careful."
"Heh! That's a lot of room!"
Sidorba looks at the food and liquor on the table and breaks her nose. Zinavyrna wants you to be careful with that... well, it looks like it's normal, so don't worry about it.
"All right! We're all set, let's get started!" I can't stand it because I'm hungry! "
I'm hungry, too!
Sidorba and Shruna stepped forward as if they were at the table. There is no doubt about the appearance of my father and daughter. They both look the same.
"At this rate, my husband and daughter will eat to the table."
“That would be troublesome, let's get started.”
When I say that, everyone lifts a wooden jock with a drink in it.
"" "Badanzig!!!" "
»» »» »» »» »» »»
Grrrr!
Badanzig, an unfamiliar call, is the "toast" of the Dwarfs. When I went out to the city with Shurna, I heard the call once, so I was not confused.
We hit the jock so much that the liquid that was inside splashed out, and there was a childish sound.
"Nh... ng... ng... puhaha!!" Noooooo!! "
The jock is quite large, and even though it was about the size of a big jock in the original world, Japan, Sidorba swallows up its contents all at once.
Looking at it in amazement, Zinavilna swallowed it all at once.
"W-What an incredible..."
It seems that not all dwarves are strong enough for alcohol, but there are many people who like alcohol like this, and there is no doubt that they are a race with a large number of alcoholic drinks.
No matter what, Sidorba and Zinavirna are apparently drinkers.
"After all, the Dwarfs are different..."
"Hey! It's just a nail (beer) with water!" It's like a hello! "
It's not that Sidorba is strong, but Sidorba drinks up the nail with a big jock, and it's just that it's kerosene. Of course, so was Zinavilna.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, don't drink too much!" It's always tough! "
"Hey! Don't worry, I won't get drunk like this!"
That said, Sidorba drinks nails like water again.
The speed and quantity of drinks are unusual...
"I wish I could drink Shurna too."
"Then who will clean up the mess?" We can't let Sinya-san do it, can we? "
I heard about Zinavirna, and it seems that Shurna also drinks it when she drinks it.
I thought that it was normal not to drink because I was a minor, but if the race is different, it is different, and it is not surprising that the age at which I can drink is different.
It seems that Shurna does not like alcohol as much as Sidorba and Zinavirna, but surprisingly, Shurna may be the strongest drinker.
By the way, what Shurna is drinking is not alcohol, but a sweet drink squeezed from the fruit. Shurna looks happy every time she drinks it, and she doesn't seem to endure it.
Well then... let's start with what to eat...
"What are you going to do if you eat first?"
"Ah... that's right."
It was about time we reached out to the cooks lining the table, but Zinavirna gently clapped Sidorba's hand as she tried to reach out.
On the other hand, Sidorba shrugs her shoulders when she makes a mistake.
"What do you mean?"
I don't care who I get the food from, but when I think about it, Shurna gives me the answer.
“Today is your welcome party!”
"Welcome party...?"
"It's like a dwarf ritual." Whenever you invite someone into your home, make sure the landlord has a place to welcome them.
That said, I don't do the euphoria I used to do anymore, and now I just have a table to drink and eat. "
When I talked to Zakri, it seemed that the Dwarfs had been drinking and eating for a long time to show their welcome to their customers. Similar customs exist in other races and can be understood. However, it seems that the Dwarfs' things were quite flashy, and in some cases they got involved in the surroundings and became like a festival.
It seems that the times have passed and we have stopped doing such flashy things, but the idea of entertaining customers remains, and this time it is that we have become the side to be entertained.
And in that welcoming seat, the welcoming side. In other words, it seems that we are the ones who put their hands on the food first, and then the people in the house put their hands on it after seeing it.
This is like a habit passed down to the race, so it's not that I don't care, and as usual, we'll have to cook first.
"It's delicious! It feels a little bit more seasoned, but it goes well with alcohol!"
"Mmm! This one is delicious too!"
"Ehehe, I made it!"
"Awesome. You can cook this elaborate dish."
Ehehe.
Apart from our souvenirs, the dishes that Shurna and the others cooked for us are naturally on the table.
They're all dishes I've never seen before.
Is Shurna's dish the closest to a dumpling?
Thin bread dough or something like pizza dough, finely chopped meat and vegetables, then folded like a dumpling, closed the mouth, and cooked with a lot of oil.
It's not as crispy as a deep-fried dumpling. In other words, is the texture of the skin close to that of "oyaki"? The contents are crisp and dry, and the chilli sauce is the closest flavor. The texture and taste are not in the original world, but they are all delicious and the salivary glands open.
There were other dishes that resembled the original world, such as slightly spicy bean dishes and food like mashed potatoes that were crushed into potatoes, but they all tasted completely different. Or it looks completely different.
There are countless foods that are unique in this world, and cooking with such a lot of them can be very curious.
At first, I had a toast with a nail, but I was immediately switched from a nail to another, and I drank a drink made from the fruit of the Branic, which is the wine that the dwarfs preferred.
The fruit Branic used is like a fruit with a sweet and sour taste like peach and apple. It is said to live only in the neighborhood of Zaghumbel, where the Dwarfs live, and is said to be one of Zaghumbel's specialties.
It has a very high alcohol content, and the feeling of drinking tequila and vodka is like drinking straight with a burning throat. Perhaps the alcohol content is just over forty degrees.
Because it is a sake with a sweet and sour taste, it is easy to drink even with a high alcohol content, so it is a type of sake that is drunk too much.
"Haha... this is amazing booze."
When I take a bite of the Branic and say it with a crooked face, Sidorba and the others laugh happily.
"In the Dwarf tribe, this is a drink that can't be drunk, it can't be said to be an adult!" You might not be used to it! "
"It's definitely a hard drink... but it's delicious." It's a flavor that makes you want the next bite. ”
All the dishes that could be bought in the dwarf city had strong seasonings, and there were a lot of things that could be snacks. The reason for the taste is probably to match this Branic wine.
"Huh! How dare you know this taste!"
I've heard that it's a drink that people don't like very much. ”
Probably heard from a guy named Kludd who comes every year.
"When it comes to alcohol, it's a little too strong for people with a basic nail to drink."
"I think this is very strong alcohol, not just for humans, but for any race." It's delicious, but I like it. ”
Heine is happy to say that and drinks a branic.
Heh!
Having heard that, Sidorba drinks happily.
Even though it is quite a strong drink, Branic is drunk one after another, and the amount of a helicopter is consumed suddenly.
"Phew..."
After drinking and eating for a while and blooming in the flowers, everyone gradually feels better and their eyes become trone.
"Delicious liquor and delicious food... amazing..."
It looks like you're having a good time. Pilates and slacks are getting better.
"Yees... it's time to get it out!"
That's what I took out the flame liquor I gave you. It's too strong to let it out at a time when the sight is getting a little torrential.
I've been waiting for you!
Yet Heine clapped her hands and was delighted. I can see that Heine likes alcohol too.
”I-I can't do it anymore... if I drink any more, my head will explode...”
"Oh, I wonder if Surakutan will shake a stick for a chance to drink the flame liquor?" It's a shame. "
“Mother, I don't think it's a good idea to say that. Please stop."
"Oh, I've offended Suratan's patron saint." I'm sorry. "
That's not a good way to put it either!
"Fufufu."
Heine and Pilte are both pretty drunk, and they're more aggressive than usual.
By the way... Effe doesn't try to talk much, to the extent that he occasionally participates in conversations. I think I want to hide that I'm a Dark Elf race... but I think I've already found out about Sidorba. I was living under the same roof, and I knew I would find out sooner or later, so I had no choice.
However, Sidorba and the others have seen that the Effe doesn't want to talk about it, and they think it's something they don't want to talk about. Even though the Effesters may feel it around them, they act like they are unaware of it, but they don't need to dare talk about the dark parts of the demon race. That could put Sidorba and the others in danger. And Jehovah said nothing, because he knew it many times.
The other one who hadn't heard her voice for a while... was Nil.
Nil, who was not originally strong on alcohol, drank a gulp of easy-to-drink branic, and after becoming the usual fuzzy Nil, she leaned against me and fell asleep. I've asked Sidorba and the others to put chairs in my back, but there's no sign of getting up for a while.
I don't drink as much as Heine or Sidorba, but I'm still pretty drunk. I'm not so drunk that I can't speak, but I'm so drunk that I can feel my thoughts fluttering.
I can't drink any more than this...
Um. Shinya-san too?
Heine swells her cheeks. It's a different direction from Nil, but if Heine gets drunk, she becomes cute.
"I want to drink in the mountains, but I can't say I'm strong on alcohol either."
"That's a shame." Flame liquor is not something you can drink many times, right? "
"I know that, but if I drink flame liquor now, my head will explode."
I had a chance to drink flame liquor once, but I saw Anti and Kanti of the giant race collapse, and I can imagine what would happen if I drank such a thing now. We have no choice but to be honest here.
If you really want to drink it, you still have it in your inventory, and you can try it sometime.
"Huh! Isn't that a good idea!"
That's good… Sidorba seems to be a raw drinker. I don't think I can imitate it.
"When that happens, we'll have to drink it over here."
"I'll drink!"
Heine reacts instantly as Sidorba holds the flame liquor and laughs.
"Hey! That's good!"
Sidorba and Heine laugh happily. Zinavilna was also holding an empty cup on the side.
"Well then... I'll take it!"
I'll take it!
Flame liquor is poured into Sidorba, Zinavirna, and Heine, and all three of them tilt their glasses together.
You can see the bright red liquid that doesn't seem like alcohol enters the three people's mouths.
When the two giants fell, they drank the whole bottle of flame wine. This time, it is about a bite in a small cup like an inoguchi. I don't think you'll ever get knocked down by this...
……………………
As we watched, the hands of Sidorba, Zinavirna, and Heine stood still as they tilted their glasses.
"I-Is everything okay...?"
…………………
When I call, the three of them don't react at all.
"Fuah..."
Mother?!
Heine was the first to move.
With a pathetic voice, she knocks down her body like a puppet with a broken thread towards Piltee.
Pilte is anxiously supporting Heine's body, but it doesn't seem to have any strength in it.
Are you okay?!
"...... Sue...... Sue......"
Pilate calls, but there is no reply, only a sleeping breath is heard. I fell asleep. Destructive... No, it's not just acute alcoholism...
"Guuuuuu....."
"Kuuuuu....."
Then, a few seconds after Heine began to sleep, Sidorva and Zinavirna finally reacted.
The two wake up immediately after lightly knocking their bodies forward while exhaling intoxicated breaths.
It's working! Whoa!
As Sidorba shakes her body, she almost rolls out of her chair and clings to Zinavirna.
"You! Steady on! Oh dear?"
Zinavirna tried to scold Sidorba. But she, too, is about to fall out of her chair and cling to Sidorva.
The two of them had bright red faces and their heads were fluttering and swaying from side to side. Before, even though I looked like I was lolly, I was in a state of drunkenness with a bite of flame liquor. Should I be surprised that I can still speak...?
Really... I'm glad I didn't drink it.
"Hey, hey... are you two okay?"
"Whoa! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" I always drink too much like that! "
"Huh! We can still make it!" Oops. "
"That's right! There's more to come!" Oh dear. "
Shurna's words were contradicted by their mouths, but the two of them were sitting clinging to each other.
"Shurna-san is right, I need to be careful not to drink too much..."
As for Surakutan, I'm probably more worried because I'm familiar with medicine. Looking at Heine, Zinavirna, and Sidorba while they were falling apart.
"Speaking of which..."
Sidorba was such a frivolous person, but suddenly another topic came up.
"It looks like you're going out to the city and asking a lot of questions."
All of a sudden I'm talking, and I'm serious. In this state, I am impressed that I can talk about it well.
