148 148 "Return to the City"




It's been a while. It's been so long since I've been back in town.

 With that said, the city of Mir, a city in the Elks Kingdom, stretched out in front of me for the first time in a long time.
 For those who have forgotten, this was the first city I visited when I came to the other world.
 It's where I met Lily and Mina, and there's also my house on the hill.
 It's also a place where you can see my house on the hill. However, thanks to the demon cultivation business, the hill is now a kind of ranch, and the house is as big as a villa.

It's a good time to go to Mina's restaurant and have a bite to eat.

I'm all for it.

I'd like to try Mina's food for the first time in a long time.

"Yeah! Rock too!

 After hearing each of Lily, Fitis, and Locke agreeing with each other, I went straight to the dining room where Mina was staying.
 When I entered, the place was already crowded with customers sitting at tables and chairs that had been made larger than before, and they were eating their food with relish.

Ah, welcome. If you would like to go to ......, please visit us at the moment.

"Hey, Mina. Long time.

 I greeted Mina as she entered and peeked out from the back of the store, and she approached me with a happy smile on her face.

Wow! Long time no see! How are you? I'm sure you've been to the desert country, right? Are you done with that already?

"Oh, well, sort of.

 While answering questions from Mina, we sit down at a table in the restaurant and receive the menu.
 We chat briefly about what we've done so far.

I see. So you have been through a lot, haven't you?

 Mina nodded at a light explanation from us. Then she spotted an unfamiliar member of our group and asked her to whisper a question.

By the way, Kyou-san. Is that woman at ......?

"Oh . She is Luna. I found her at the bottom of the ruins.

 Mina was looking at Luna, a beautiful brown girl with silvery hair flowing in the air.
 Since then, she's been following us around, occasionally gazing at the scenery and the city.
 I'm sure you'll find that Rock is sitting on her lap, and for some reason he seems to be taking to Luna.

I see. ....... I see that there are many more troublesome things going on without you even knowing it.

 After nodding to me, Mina listened to my order and headed to the kitchen.
 After a while, Mina appears from the back with a lot of food in her hands.

Here you go. Ladies and gentlemen. It's been a while, so I've made a little extra.

"Oh, thank you! Mina!

 It's been a long time since I've had Mina's special dishes on the table.
 It's not just the cockatrice with killer plant sauce, but also the monsters I grew and the custom-made ones that were brought in from another continent, some of which I hadn't seen before and I was almost drooling at the sight of them.
 I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one who's been there.

The food from Mina is the best!

Mina's cooking is so homey and comforting!

Eating Mina's food reminds me of the importance of everyday ease of eating, not just simple cooking skills and ingredients, and I learn a lot.

 It's a good thing that you're able to get the most out of it.
 On the other hand, Luna's first impression of Mina's cooking was--

"--?

 He sat there rigidly as if struck by lightning, then continued to eat the food in front of him silently, and when he had finished everything, he asked me with a straight face: "Hey ...

He asks me with a straight face, "Hey. Is cooking such a good thing?

 There was a lot of sauce and leftover pieces of food all over his face, ruining a beautiful woman, but he had no time for that, so he decided to answer.

Yeah, well . It depends on the person who cooks it, but Mina's food is one of the best I know.

I see.

 As soon as Luna heard that, she stood up suddenly and took Mina's hand in hers, she made an outrageous declaration.

"I like it. You will be mine.

!

 The sudden confession made by me and Lily spewed out what we were eating at each other.
 By the way, I immediately said, "Hey, you're dirty! And Lily prodded me, but that's the way it is for both of us.

What? Heh? Oh, no, no, I mean, I don't want people to say that to me all of a sudden. ...... I have a person who is interested in ......

 Mina, on the other hand, is a confession (?) from Luna. The answer to the question, "Why?

Why? I won't do anything bad. I will give my property the respect it deserves. You deserve it, I've decided you're worth it. I like to take what I want when I want it. Do not refuse me. It belongs to me now, or--

That's enough.



 Luna continues her strange seduction with a light chop on her head.

"What do you do?

 Luna looks back at me with a straight face.
 Hmmm. It's better to give her some knowledge of this world.
 For now, I apologize briefly to Mina, and then confess to her a mystery. to leave the cafeteria while holding onto Luna's collar.
