(EP.244) Son-in-law ? # 4
244 – Daryl son-in-law ? # 4
taken from noblemt l
Gracia, the city of the church.
He said that there is a high-end restaurant that can only be entered by reservation in the vicinity of the high-end residential area.
The name of the restaurant is “Fairy’s sake cup”. It is one of the top 3 places that foreign nobles and distinguished guests who have visited the city want to visit at least once.
As soon as you sit down, you feel a burden because it is a very expensive store where you only receive 500,000 coins in front of each person and 20,000 coins for just water.
“A dinner course. 2 people. Has confirmed. I will take you to your seat.”
The manager of the elf, with his hair in an all-back style, came to me and confirmed the reservation. I sit down and don’t panic, I just respond with a familiar feeling.
“It seems that the other person hasn’t come yet, so when you do, please serve the meal.”
“It is.”
As I watched the elf manager moving away, I looked around. The opponent, Stella Belhawk, cannot be seen. It’s just perception.
Stella Bellhawk, 10 points deducted from filial piety.
You must be able to keep your appointments strictly. I heard that elves are strict with time, but Stella has a different look. First, I sat in a chair alone and waited for about 30 minutes.
The elf manager keeps coming to me and asking if I want to add a menu. People around me giggled at me.
– How, that person must have had an affair. Puffy-.
– You still look like a young rookie. What should I do because the reservation fee, which I would have loved so much, is wasted?
“… … .”
Young is not coming
It was when I started to panic before I became angry because I wondered if I really had been cheated on.
Again, again.
Someone came up to me with a high hoof.
When I turned my head, I saw an elf in a Chinese dress with sleeves and a chest full of open thighs sitting in front of me.
-Who are you? Were there any elves like that around here?
– I don’t know. How could that kid be so pretty… .
I didn’t want to admit it, but the elf who decorated herself to the fullest caught people’s attention, so I couldn’t recall the anger I had been waiting for for a long time.
Because being a young and healthy man is made so that when you see a beautiful woman, your thoughts and all five senses are drawn to it.
“Tae-kun, am I a little late?”
“Very late.”
“In this case, you say no.”
“But you are really late.”
“It takes time for a woman to decorate. If I come prettier, it’s good because Tae-oh’s shoulder, who is with me, will also go up. is not it?”
It was as she said.
Just sitting next to a pretty woman raises my position in this high-end restaurant.
Up until now, I was just a kid sitting alone and miserable. Do I have to say that I feel like a young nobleman who doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing now?
Then I heard someone’s voice in my ear.
-Oh, that guy. Now I see that wizard. A duel trial I had a few weeks ago. That wizard… !
ㅡ Is that right? called that supernova?
It’s getting attention right away.
I thought that it would be better for me to sit alone like I did before, when I would receive such a burdensome gaze.
Eat quickly and dig this place-. As I was thinking about that, Stella Belhawk, who was sitting there, suddenly stood up.
“Tae-kun, how about moving around a bit?”
“You say this is a store that takes over a month just to make a reservation? I’m fine, but isn’t it worth it?”
“it’s okay. It’s a place run by our company.”
Oh, so that’s why the name of the store was preceded by a fairy-what-if name.
“Wilter, you can cancel today’s reservation.”
At Stella’s words, the elf manager, who was listening to the story, clicked his tongue.
―Okay, Miss.
It looks like you have a lot of ears to hear.
Eventually, Stella and I left the store.
“Because there is a place I know well. How about going there?”
“… … .”
“I will live. It’s as good as it was before, so don’t worry. And there are no ears to hear.”
“Then, let me guide you.”
Stella, who is several times more familiar with this city than I am, walked down the well-organized road with a hoofing sound.
It is dark and dark in the evening, but the security of the high-end restaurant is so peaceful that there is not a single drunkard. The nostalgia that reminds me of the modern 21st century of Machi… .
However, as Stella’s footsteps continued, people’s clothes and gaze became more and more unsettling, until finally they reached an area full of people staring at us from the back alley.
It’s the worst when you get into an argument.
– Guys, look at that. Looks like the fairy went the wrong way? Shall we guide you?
– Leave it alone. That girl is Stella.
Fortunately, there were no gangsters or robbers approaching us easily. Listening closely, Stella seemed quite famous here.
Why?
The turbulent back alley and Stella.
When I was inferring about the harmony of two inconsistent attributes.
She arrives at an illegal tavern with no signboards and noisy and disorderly sounds.
For a moment, I thought, ‘Maybe I’m getting hit in the back of the head and being sold to a place like a deep-sea fishing boat’. I wondered if that would ever happen, so when I followed inside, the inside of the store was even more messy.
━ Trying this Sweet Fist Punchnoy’s Honey Fist… ! Honey Bungwon-!
━aaah
ㅡWow, it just went into my chin!
ㅡI, Punchnoy, train endlessly until the fight against the strongest nymph on Earth, Eugenoi… is to do… !
Inside the store, people were gathering and fighting. People who fight without referee in an improvised stadium. The appearance of placing bets here and there and the coins scattered on the floor-.
“It’s disorderly.”
“But, isn’t it more romantic than a rigid restaurant?”
I don’t know about romance.
I also felt comfortable eating at a restaurant like this. It’s okay to be comfortable without being formal. Assuming no fights come to me.
“Honey show.”
Then, a giant with a grim face approached me. For a moment, I thought it was an ogre, but the scar-filled face in one eye was scary, but it was a human.
Did you even come to pick up the sibi?
As he thought about it, he smiled.
“Sister, it’s been a while. Have you had any fun? Are you here to sell?”
“No, today is a guest. Give me what you always eat.”
“Hehe, just leave it to me.”
You are the shop owner.
It was served with grilled pork feet and a drink with ice floating on it. It smells of green grapes, with a slight but bitter alcohol scent.
“Because that guy has made a highball amazing for a long time. Drink it.”
“I’m sorry, but I don’t drink.”
“okay? It’s delicious. It’s unfortunate.”
“I get drunk just by smelling it.”
“Can I just smell it?”
There is such a thing as the tempo of a story. In a party like this, the tempo of the conversation is particularly important.
However, as always, when you say, ‘I can’t drink,’ that tempo was broken for a moment.
If it’s educated people, they’ll say, ‘Oh, you can do that.’ In the case of Stella, I was a little nervous because I thought it might be a reckless suggestion for a drink.
Surprisingly, she readily agreed.
“There was one person I knew. A person who doesn’t drink at all. He was a funny man who got drunk just by smelling it—”
Stella’s expression seemed to be in a moment of reminiscence.
* * *
The food was purely delicious. In fact, meat dipped in sauce is delicious no matter how you eat it.
“It’s delicious.”
“I wouldn’t have brought it here if I thought it wouldn’t taste good.”
We ate a rough meal and chatted briefly. Surprisingly, the conversation proceeds normally.
“So the hypothesis that dinosaurs have feathers is also slowly going extinct. Now, what is drawing the attention of scholars are the glowing luminous dinosaurs.”
“okay.”
After listening to dinosaur stories for a while, I was surprised to find out that the conversation was surprisingly interesting.
Maybe it’s because Stella Belhawk still holds the title of ‘professor’. Maybe it was because he was a fairy who had been saving his youth for a long time, he had a lot of miscellaneous knowledge and wide conversation.
It’s been a long time since I’ve had a conversation going smoothly no matter what story I bring up, so it was comfortable for me to be able to talk about anything lightly.
It’s more common than I thought.
How would you feel if an ordinary man and woman met and had a conversation? Speaking of noble families and arranged marriages aside, Stella was a good conversationalist.
“Tae-kun, I’ll have one more drink.”
“By the way, you have already had four cups. If you stay like this, you will be incapable of saying goodbye.”
“Have you already had four? I?”
“yes.”
Stella’s amber eyes were slightly relaxed. Like I said, it was because he drank in succession and got drunk first.
Stella, who looked at the empty glasses in front of her, smiled softly.
“Yes. When did you drink this? It’s been a long time since someone listened to me so well. I guess I drank it without realizing it. In the old days, there was no problem with about ten cups of this kind.”
How many years ago was it?
“Oh, I don’t like it. If you get drunk, you’ll end up talking about the old days. In my time, say- just like that Kids these days don’t like that.”
“It will be different for each person. A lot of people don’t like it.”
“Yeah, that’s right. However, there were a lot of fun and exciting things in the past. This store is also a bit smaller. It was a time when the only guests were me and the seniors… .”
Stella’s eyes shone like starlight. If his normal eyes were blurry, the drunk Stella looked rather intelligent.
I think you’ve heard that alcohol reveals a person’s nature.
Perhaps the ingenuity that Stella competed with Opal, who was still her older brother, was radiating out like a dry well.
I asked implicitly.
“If it’s the seniors you worked with, was it an adventure club when you were an undergraduate?”
“okay. It was fun. Reinhardt isn’t now, but Aleister was then. They were all young and full of energy. Everyone had a dream. I had a dream.”
After that, the adventure club did a certain adventure for Stella without me asking. He also recounted what spells and ancient ruins he had discovered.
“Then I found a huge tree growing under the cave. Its height and thickness are beyond imagination… !”
The contents were quite fantasy, so there was no sense of reality. I don’t know if it’s an exaggeration, but the fact that I ventured freely is quite hopeful, and there is something I envy.
However, this kind of complaining about the past tends to end with the vague words, “It was good back then.”
Stella, who has a comparatively shabby reality compared to her shining past, lost her eyes and only spun around with a glass of ice on it.
“The adventure is over because Isaiah Gospel is missing?”
The reason I listened to her long spirits to the end was to ask a question. At the name mentioned by me, Stella half-closed her eyelids and spoke lightly.
“okay. He was a very rude man. Where did you suddenly go? .”
“But, from what I heard, Professor Stella went into the witch forest with the man.”
“… … .”
The hand that was turning the ice glass stands tall.
“Where is the story?”
“I have a reliable source of information. The reaction seems to be true. Professor Stella, could you please elaborate on that story?”
“The hidden stories. There’s a reason it’s hidden. Tae-oh-kun, it’s a pity, but I don’t have the loyalty to tell you that story.”
“What if I deserve to hear that story?”
I deserve more than anyone else.
