"Oh wow… oh, shit this is better than last time I had it.""Does the sauce change it that much?"
"You bet. How the hell did they prepare this chicken? What do they mix in this sauce? Drugs?"
"Huhuhu, we can go ask the chef if you want."
She wasn't joking. The head chef that made the recipes of these things and looked after everything in this place also knew her well.
He wouldn't mind even if she asked him what the secrets to all the things in this place were.
"Hmmm… I'd like to take a look around the kitchen here. See how they make these things." He knew how cooking was done in a unique manner in this world.
They did not always use the common appliances that the people of the real world used. They had special methods and special ways– as well as special ingredients.
The chicken that they were eating right now was not the same kind of chicken that they ate in the real world.
The thing that they were eating was called (Kukooro) a creature that, though closely resembled a chicken, was something that lived in forest areas, on trees.
The overwhelming juiciness that was balanced perfectly with the crisp of the outer surface and the softness of the meat inside was just too unreal even to someone who had once lived on this particular food.
"Wow… this sauce… Elio I'm telling you… this is The shit."
"Hey. mind your words."
His hands were a little dirty so he hit her head with his own.
They were with someone she respected and she was using curses? Now that wasn't appropriate.
"Didn't you used to say you have tried all kinds of heavenly and divine dishes? How does simple fried food compare to those things?"
"Divine dishes?"
Elio's words suddenly caught Miss Aloha's attention but, when she looked up at the sauce stained face of the girl before her, she could only chuckle with a smile.
"You have no manners, little lady."
She wiped the sauce from her face with a napkin while smiling at her warmly.
This was a pretty familiar sight to someone who had taken care of tens of little children of this town.
She did not know what her background was or even What she was, but she kind of had a unique liking for this pretty girl.
There was something special about her.
"You.. ahem. Sorry. You didn't have to do that."
She got a blush of embarrassment when Miss Aloha did that.
It was out of the blue.
"It's rare for her to be embarrassed as well, miss Aloha. She's usually calm and stoic."
Elio was having more fun than the smile-gecko duo who had found a strange looking green plant in a corner and were playing with it.
She wasn't an expressive person in reality so he had not seen her so openly expressed many times in the past.
She was the most expressive when she was with his mom, or when they were with his family.
Alone at their place, she was mainly just doing her stuff or was playing around with him.
They talked, they helped one another with house work, and they went on dates. But still, this little lunch they were having was the first time she was being like this around someone they were meeting for the first time.
"Your mind allows you to be vulnerable around the people you feel comfortable with. And… well, let's just say everyone becomes comfortable around me."
She smiled lightly as she took a bite from her own unique dish– she liked chicken but fried food so early wasn't good for her health.
She avoided it inside the game as well until it was some special occasion.
"Seems like it."
Their meeting with her was something that happened by chance, but it must have been fate.
He liked this food, he liked how she was liking it even more. And perhaps if not for this chance encounter, they might not have had this unique experience together.
"Miu!"
"Muuuu~!"
"Oh, you two are back."
The little ones found the plant that was emitting Mana a fun thing.
It was their first time seeing such a plant, and since it was a rare kind that one didn't usually find in the beginner hunting grounds, their surprise was natural.
Still…
"You can't have it, Az. Can you even eat something like that?"
He could tell his little friend also wanted to eat something, and the plant was a fun option.
Miu also wanted to come out for some fresh Mana but they can't have it out here or the people around us will get scared.
It will have to wait for some time, but Az was still not getting that plant.
"What an interesting creature…"
She could tell what this creature was and how special the one inside it was as well.
In her time here, she had seen all kinds of slimes, but none were as unique as this one.
"I haven't seen many that are as curious and energetic as this one."

Since Az was back on their table, she caressed it gently.
"Muuuuu~."
And Az liked her touch as well, which was a rare sight for the two of them.
"Miu!"
Even Miu who was inside Az was happy after receiving her indirect affection.
The way the gecko was smiling was so pretty, it put another smile on Miss Aloha's face.
"You have some unique friends, Elio."
She called them friends– not creatures, not tamed beasts, not something the other players would call but friends.
"I'm fortunate to have these special friends."
They weren't simply creatures. They were his friends, as she had said.
"Then… can you tell me how you three met?"
Their lunch did not have any special objective that they needed to reach. They were simply having food together.
They were going to pay for their portion and they knew they would get some discount thanks to her so, they were thankful for that.
"You two know about the library's grand event, right? I think you two should participate in it."
"Oh, we are here for that exactly actually."
Their lunch had concluded soon and they were enjoying their dessert.
They would go and take a look at the kitchen before parting ways, and since it was still afternoon, the two of them still had a lot of time for their shopping.
"Is that so? How nice… we will get to watch something fun this time then."
"Hmmm? You won't be participating?"
The event that all the players in Moongold were excited about was something that was only held on the night of the [Golden moon].
A unique natural phenomenon that this town and this reagan experienced every three to six years.
"No. I've tried it last time, but I know that it isn't for me. I will be a spectator, and since the Mayor invited me to watch it along with the representative of Lord Viscount who will arrive tonight, I won't be standing in your way.
Besides, this event was always for the new players. Not us oldies." Sёarᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Both of them were looking forward to that event already, but now that she knew they would be participating, even Miss Aloha was looking forward to it…
