Welcome to the Monsters’ Guild ~ The Strongest Group Who Did Everything, for a Price ~

The brand new building was full of people.

Although there are never many tables in the store, there are too many visitors and there are very few seats.

A man sitting in one of those seats looks at the menu and calls the clerk.

"Shall I ask for a mimic pan?"

"Certainly!

This is a pot restaurant dungeon pavilion.

It was one of the rarest restaurants in the world where you could eat fresh mimic pans.

"I'm in a mimic pan -!

"Yes Mimic Hot Pot -!

From the kitchen where I received my order, a young clerk runs into the back room.

There was a staircase at the back of the store, with a dark space behind it.

And the clerk raises his voice toward the dark space.

"Mr. Zeld, I'm in a mimic pan!

Then a voice came from behind the stairs.

"I understand."

It is the voice of Zeld, the subordinate of Rise.

As Zeld approaches an iron pan with a beautifully arranged lid on the floor, he pierces the knife into a slit-shaped groove open to the lid.

Then I heard the interrupter scream from the pan and it stopped working after a few times trembling with Gatan Gatan.

As a precaution, Zeld sticks a knife in a few lid slots to see if he's really dead.

Because rarely is there a mimic pretending to be dead.

Yes, this pot is the mimic that was cultivated by Rise, and Zeld grew the mimic and planted it in this basement as his exclusive servant.

By the way, it is a shift system.

Mimic, which was begun by Rises and others, was initially thought to take a long time to successfully breed.

But Mimic only had demons, and it was very easy to raise them, and he found that if he fed them, they would grow.

They questioned the fact that there was little chance of finding Mimic in the labyrinth for that matter, but the answers were easy to find besides.

Mimic is a demon that needs a shell that is a yadkari-shaped dwelling.

But on the contrary, without the shell, the body was very fragile.

For that reason, it was speculated that Mimic was less likely to be encountered in the labyrinth because Mimic would feed on the outside enemy before he could get a shell.

The reason for this is that when mimics lay eggs, a very large number of juvenile mimics are produced.

Mimic gives birth to hundreds of naive mimics in a single birth. And when you're born, you're kicked out of your parents, and you're on a journey to find your shell.

But the dungeons are tough. In this limited environment, shell objects are limited, and the few shells take away from each other, so there are many naive mimics that don't get shells, and the majority of them were eaten by external enemies before they found their next shell candidate and ended their short lives.

Because of this background, Rise produced large quantities of shells for mimics.

And if you put the finished shell in the basement, you go into a pan where the naive mimic is the shell on its own.

The shell was then used as it was to make a mimic pan, wash and reuse the finished pan, and then use it as a new mimic nest again.

"But man's obsession with food is awesome."

Zeld stares at Mimic's open slit on the lid of his pan.

This slit is a hole drilled for a more efficient mimic pan.

Mimic is a waiting demon that strikes with sharp fangs when he opens the lid.

Opening the lid means approaching close range, and it is difficult to avoid it because it is kneeling in to open the lid.

For this reason, Rise asked the blacksmith to drill a hole to stab the knife so that he could plant the mimic without having to open the lid.

Coincidentally, the hole became a hole that missed steam when turning it into a pan, and it also had the by-productive effect of saying that it was also available for cooking.

Zeld opens the lid of a completely exhausted mimic, knives down the fangs inside, puts in water and then speaks to the “ that was beside him ”.

Salamander, please.

"Sher!"

Then a flaming lizard popped out of the fire and beneath the mimic pan.

He is Rise's submissive demon, the fiery demon salamander.

And the underside of the mimic shell that Rise made him have four legs that allow him to have a gap underneath.

This is so that the salamander can start a fire directly underneath and heat the pan immediately.

No need for this. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was a mimic shell made with a thorough emphasis on efficiency.

I hear the water simmering from the gutsy and mimic pans.

For a salamander who manipulates flames freely, both low and high fires remain a thought.

The salamander simmered the mimic pan, judging the optimum temperature from the heat of the pan himself.

◇

"Here we go."

Zeld comes up from the basement with a mimic pan.

And when I put it on the kitchen table, the clerk took it to the store.

"Good luck!

A cook in the kitchen speaks to Zeldo.

He was the second generation of small restaurants in this town and a cook sent by the shop owner for training when he was consulted by Rise to open a Mimic Pot store.

Mimic pan is a simple dish to simmer Mimic, so it is not necessary to consult with the cook, but as a rise, it was not a good idea to trample the territory of the town's restaurant and vandalize it.

That's why he asked the town's commercial guild to help out with the restaurant.

I was wondering if there is anything else I would like to work for because I want to make dishes other than mimic pans as a product.

The town of Dexsi is never small but not even big. If that happens, the second son or third son who naturally failed to become the second generation of the store will only have enough work to help the kitchen and be polite in other big town stores, so it is unlikely that the kitchen will be beaten.

There the owners appeared that they were free to use the kitchen called Rise, so they all came under Rise.

Even for existing restaurants, there is more chance that their sons will be able to stand on their own, so there is less need to eliminate Rise and as a result coexist with each other.

By the way, since the traveler who came to eat the mimic pot, which became the town's new specialty, couldn't get in full, and became hungry and intolerable to come and eat at other stores, the sales of the store were actually up, rather the restaurant owners were benefiting from the various rises and the by-products he opened the store.
