CH 113

“I was cooking for Olberto and his party, and before I knew it, it had become a huge feast.”

Translated by Dawn

“I was cooking for Olberto and his party, and before I knew it, it had become a huge feast.”

“I’ve been waiting for you, boy. Now, let me have my food as I promised!”

When I went to the Adventurers’ Guild, I found Olberto standing at the entrance of the guild like a gatekeeper. Apparently, he had been anxiously awaiting my arrival at the Adventurers’ Guild.

To begin with, I had promised Olberto and the others that I would serve them food as a commission for undertaking the escort of the merchants of the commercial guild, but how much did he want to eat my food…

“Alright. Then wait for me at the bar table.”

This time, I made them instead of stocking them in my storage. This was because I have some of the dishes I have made so far stored away, but I had decided that they would eat them up by their atmosphere.

I borrowed the kitchen of the bar attached to the Adventurers’ Guild and prepared the dishes I had made so far and served them to each of them. For some reason, Gyrmzak and the others were also eating, but I decided to ignore that because they had accepted the request together…

“Ah, I want some too.”

“Me too.”

“I’ll have three.”

…Huh? something’s wrong? Somehow, some of the food I’ve made is on the tables of other adventurers…

“Give me some as well.”

“Oohh.”

So, you were the cause of it Gyrmzaaaak? What on earth was he doing? While I was screaming my heart out, Gyrmzak was distributing food to the other tables, and before long the entire bar had developed into a banquet hall.

The adventurers were tantalizing themselves with delicious food they had never tasted before, and the deliciousness of the food was making them drink more and more. There were bouts of revelry happening all around.

Of course, the fact that the food was distributed to other tables meant that the food was not delivered to Olberto and his party who were supposed to receive it, which meant that I had to keep cooking until the food was delivered to them.

After several tens of minutes of repeatedly making and serving, the food finally reached Olberto, but that was the beginning of hell.

“Delicious, it’s delicious! Give me another one!”

“Me as well”

“Same.”

Most adventurers were voracious eaters, as their bodies were their most important asset. Because of the harsh conditions in which they must work, it was not uncommon for them to eat when they could, and they ate more than most people.

Naturally, the amount of food they ate meant that I had to cook for them, so I was busy with the incredibly busy task of continuing to cook for them.

(I don’t think I’ve been this busy since my last life when I was taking on a project that was about to be delivered……)

I was only a little tired because of my overwhelming physical strength, but if I were an ordinary cook, I would have been overwhelmed by being so busy.

After the idiot Gyrmzak started distributing the food to the other tables, I switched to steaks, which were easier to prepare, but still, the adventurers’ stomachs were filling up a little faster than mine, and I was starting to feel overwhelmed.

(Damn iiiiitttt! If it’s like this…Physical Enhancement max output! Limit Breakthrough!)

I didn’t expect to have to use the all-out combo I used on the demons here, but it was worth it, and I managed to fill the adventurers’ stomachs before I was crushed.

“It was delicious…”

While the other adventurers looked full and struggling, Olberto was the only one looking satisfied and basking in the afterglow of the meal. How much of a glutton was that guy ……?

I did not expect it to be this big a deal, but what surprised me more was the amount of monster meat I had. Most of the carcasses and materials I had hunted monsters with had been delivered to the Adventurers’ Guild and the dismantling site, but I had kept a certain amount of meat and other ingredients in storage.

But when I looked inside, I found that there was still more than enough to fill the bellies of the adventurers, who were gluttonous, and I was amazed at myself, wondering how much I had stored.

At any rate, despite the little incident, I was able to fulfill my promise to Olberto and the others, so I convinced myself that it was a good thing that this was the end result.

“Nom, nom…nom. Hmmm, Rolando-kyun’s cooking is so good!”

“…why are you here, you loli hag.”

“Well, I was just getting bored of being inside the barrier, and I thought I’d go out into the outside world after a long time…”

“You didn’t say that when I asked you!”

After the meal was over, I sat down at one of the tables to take a break and was surprised to see an unexpected person there. That person was Nagartinya, my master who taught me how to fight and with whom I had been sharing meals until recently.

Why she was here and why she was eating my cooking was not important at this point, but why she was out in the world was the only question I had.

Originally, she became immortal after drinking a strange elixir of immortality that she had created, and she became so tired of the powers that be rushing in to claim the elixir that she holed herself up in the depths of a dungeon.

The fact that Nagartinya was interested in the outside world again made me wonder if something had triggered such an extraordinary event as the imminent destruction of the world.

“So, why are you here?”

“You don’t have to be so mean–. We’re not in a relationship where we show each other naked—fugaa.”

“That’s a misleading way of putting it. I didn’t show it to you, I was seen by you. And in your case, it was by force, no?”

“It hurts, It hurts, It hurts!! M-my face…my face is going to be crushed! It’s going to be crushed!!”

The inherited treasure, the iron claw, was deeply set in Nagartinya’s face. However, it was far from effective damage and was quickly missed. Tch, she’s as stubborn as a cockroach…

“H-hey, master. Who is that girl?”

While we were having such an exchange, a voice called out to us from behind. If I looked closely, I could see the usual three people under Gyrmzak looking at me and asking me who Nagartinya was.

“Well, he’s like my master.”

“Master’s master?”

Gyrmzak looked at my words with skepticism. I know, it was hard to believe all of a sudden. If someone told me that a girl who looked sixteen or seventeen was my master, I would normally think it was a joke or something. But Gyrmzak……. She was an old hag of a monster, stronger than I was at an estimated age of four hundred years……. It was frustrating, but she was an outsider among outsiders that even I could not win now.

“Rolando-kyun? Are you thinking of something rude?”

“See?”

“What? What do you mean, ‘See?’”

“…..”

Oops, I thought Gyrmzak could hear my mind, but apparently, it didn’t work out that way. Well, reading minds was a trick that only a ghost could pull off. Like some loli hag.

“…..”

While I was thinking about such an unimportant thing, Maylene suddenly looked into Nagartinya’s face, pulling her face close to hers. I wondered if she had finally awakened to the taste for such things, and then, just as I was wondering if she had, she suddenly seemed to notice something and suddenly shot out a magic spell.

“[Shaked Icicle]!”

“[Flame Wall]!”

The magic of ice and fire exploded, and as a result of the two opposing attributes canceling each other out, a sparkling and fantastic sight was projected onto the eyes. Hey, hey, what kind of magic are you guys using inside the building?

“It seems you are an enemy I must vanquish…”

“Fufufu, I’m not old enough to fall behind a little girl like you.”

The other adventurers were unable to move as the two confronted each other as if to keep each other in check. ……What in the world was causing all this? I was sure these two had never met before, right?

“I, Maylene, will be the master’s first!”

“No, I’m the right person for Rolando-kyun’s first time!”

Ah, I see…it was about that. In other words, the equation was disappointing beauty x disappointing beauty = even more disappointing beauty spurred on. And the cause of this time was apparently me…I see, I see.

“Die! [Frozen……]”

“Nope! [Maximum…]”

“Stop!!”

“Gehh...”

“Buhuk…”

Their mysterious rivalry reached a peak and they tried to unleash even more powerful magic, so I dropped a chop on both of their heads. Just enough to not kill them, of course.

What Maylene was going to use was 【Frozen Blizzard】, which was a wide-range and high-power magic among ice magic. Incidentally, I probably didn’t need to explain to you what happened…if you use such magic indoors.

On the other hand, Nagartinya, the loli hag, tried to use a magic called [Maximum Ray], which specialized in penetrating power and single point concentration among chaos magic, so to speak, one laser beam. This magic was also not magic that could be used indoors.

“Master, what are you doing?”

“Rolando-kyun, you’re being a little mean!”

“Noisy! Sit down, both of you!”

From there, my sermon went on and on, but it was surprisingly short-lived, as Isabella, the guildmaster, soon noticed something was wrong and came over. When she saw Nagartinya, her eyes widened and a look of astonishment came over her face, then she took me and Nagartinya to the guildmaster’s office.

And when we came to the guildmaster’s room, Isabella turned around, got down on one knee, and prostrated herself to Nagartinya, a complete change from her earlier attitude.
