Chapter 861

Ms. Delia brought us some food



“Sorry that it’s not too spacious. This is not a proper inn.”

“No, it’s more than enough.”

“We’re just thankful to have a roof over our heads.”

“It is no problem. We are used to camping outside.”

Even if it was small, it was much better than camping out in the wild. Phillip and Nicholas also agreed with me.

“Also, feel free to use the village’s firewood. There’s enough for a few days behind the house. You can get water from the well.”

“Thank you.”

As the village was close to the forest, there was enough wood for anyone to use freely.

And since the water was from a well, you had to fill up a pitcher and use it. I had never done that before, so I was looking forward to it.

“In any case, while I would like to look around the town... I suppose we should prepare our rooms first?”

“Yes. And some lunch as well.”

“Then I will go get some water.”

“I will tell the others that there are guests here, so please make yourselves at home.”

“Yes. When I gave them the serpent, they gave me some smoked meat in return. And I also brought some konjac.”

“Oh, smoked meat! This tastes good if you grill it a little first! Well, this one might be a little different...”

Phillip was quite excited when he saw it. The meat was a little larger than a fist, and bound with string similar to ham.

“The old men eat it like that as well. When they are drinking, anyway... But it is delicious!”

“Thank you, Ms. Delia.”

“Hmm, it is rather hard. I suppose we should cut it into thin slices. I have high hopes for this one... Hmm, we should have bought some wine in Ractos.”

“Phillip, shouldn’t you thank Ms. Delia first?”

“Oh, that’s right.”

Phillip thanked her and then took the ham back to the kitchen.

“Oh, should I bring some wine as well?”

“No, not today. Phillip might want to drink...but we are tired from traveling. And they might drink too much.”

“Mr. Sebastian said that we shouldn’t let him drink too much. After all, he has a habit of doing that...”

Nicholas agreed with me.

Yes, it was not because I did not want to drink wine that had a serpent in it. That had nothing to do with it at all...
