94 – 95. Being extremely calm

Seafood

Rare and delicious food from the mountains and the sea.

Three delicacies called truffle, foie gras, caviar, etc.

Humans have never been as sincere as eating when it comes to living.

Therefore, I could speak.

“Wheat dried under Apollo-sama’s clear sunlight for 100 days, potatoes grown in the field with Demetri-sama’s blessing, beef tenderloin delivered from Hermes-sama’s temple, cooked over flames with Hestia-sama’s blessing— ───

──Beef stew.”

“………”

I’m not kidding about eating.

After the explanation finally ended, I immediately grabbed a spoon and took a bite of the stew.

“The prayer is not over yet.”

“……Keep it off…!”

Is the stew getting cold right now?

I looked at the waiter and looked at him, and when he looked at me, the waiter smiled as if he didn’t have to worry.

“The bowl itself has a heating function. It was delivered from the Hephaestus Guild.”

“……. Ugh!”

Me

Let me hit just one human.

‘How did it take more than 30 minutes to eat a stew after entering the restaurant?’

In the end, after listening to all the hesitations, I finally took a sip of the stew and put it in my mouth.

“──── And”

Ah

This

What should I say?

It is difficult to explain in one word because the sentiment is complicated in many ways, but if I had to force it down into one sentence, it would be like this.

“Crazy”

It’s worth munching for 30 minutes.

I hurriedly picked up the spoon and put the stew in my mouth again.

‘Jonmat’

Sweet taste

Savory yet salty taste

At the same time, you go inside and feel the deep aftertaste.

Normally, this type of stew would make my stomach full, but strangely, my stomach didn’t feel heavy at all.

“As expected, a meal prepared by a disciple of Demeter.”

Minerva seems to be accustomed to this taste and passes it leisurely.

As expected, experienced people are different no matter what. I even picked up a spoon and tried to dispose of the stew.

“Guest”

“Hmm?”

And at that moment, the waiter reappeared next to me.

The waiter said, pointing to the half-eaten stew.

“Would you like to grind the beef stew, which is delicious as it is, into a cream stew?”

“Eh…?”

What?

“Yes, please.”

“Then I’ll cook for you first.”

“No…What…”

What are you doing with the delicious beef stew?

I stared blankly at the scene unfolding in front of me, unaware of the situation.

Wheeeing!

“No… No yee…”

A blender you don’t know where it came from

Beef stew was put inside and it came out as porridge after being ground up, and at some point it came out as smooth cream stew.

“Hmm… It’s delicious as expected.”

“That’s too much praise.”

“…………”

Is this, am I weird?

Minerva nodded and began to eat the stew.

‘Once you look at the expression, it looks okay…’

The waiter looked at me and asked again.

“The customer…?”

“Uh… Eh. Yes.”

“Okay.”

Please wait a moment.

Approximately 5 minutes after the waiter finishes talking

At some point, beef stew turned into cream stew.

“Slurp…Umm…mmm…!”

The taste was good.

In addition to the creamy taste, I felt the rich meat taste in places.

Compared to beef stew, the taste is slightly greasy and heavy.

I served it with the wine served next to it and went inside.

No matter how you look at it, this stew doesn’t seem lacking

“Would you like to make this stew into a sauce?”

“…….Um”

Yes

Please do as you please.

The waiter instantly reduced the cream stew to a concentrated sauce.

“Hmm…!”

The taste of the sauce was richer and more delicious than expected.

There is another taste. But it’s delicious, but it’s strangely lacking.

If there’s something that fills this strange lack…

“Would you like to have this sauce with your bread?”

“…….Yes”

I spread it on baguette bread and ate it.

There is a taste. It was still delicious.

But this strangely regrettable feeling…

“Would you like to try beef stew with this concentrated sauce as a base?”

“…………”

Infinite Galle of Beef Stew Returns Again

At that point, I quietly closed my eyes.

This feeling

This familiar sense.

I know for sure.

‘This… I feel strangely calm even though I’m nervous…’

That’s why I told you to do some collaboration.

They’re the same as this shop’s doobi dooba~ doobi doobi doobi doubab bar.

******************

After eating

As an offering to the gods in advance, truffles brought from home were made into a stew and presented.

The only way to offer is to put your hands together and pray. I don’t know if it’s because he’s an apostle or because of his title, but he didn’t offer it up to the altar, but he oxidized into light and disappeared on his own.

[Jusin─Hera: This taste is very warm.]

Hera said that the taste is excellent.

[Jusin─Demeter: How about making this delicious creamy mushroom stew with sauce and dipping it into bread?]

[Jusin─Hera: ….How will my sister be here? More than that, I’m on a diet right now!]

[Jusin─Demeter: Where is the weight you need to lose? No, do you? Because you always look like that, your breasts lack fat!]

[Jusin─Hera: You promised not to talk about that!]

“Um…..”

It looked like something interesting had happened along the way, but

[Jusin—-Athena: It’s delicious. This stew.]

[Jusin—Hera: Athena, I never invited you to this place!]

[Jusin─Demeter: I invited you? I’m salivating with my eyes saying it’s delicious, but it’s a pity to leave it alone.]

[Jusin─Hera: Uh…Ah, aaa…!!!]

“…..Uh”

I decided not to care.

[Jusin─Chronos: …Ah?]

“…………”

I decided not to care.

“Whoa….I ate well. I ate so well that it was a problem.”

Minerva follows me.

She is putting her hand on her upper stomach and making a happy expression.

“I usually take care of my diet, but when I come here, I end up overeating without realizing it. As expected… All of Demeter’s followers are excellent at cooking.”

“……Mmm”

Well, if you ask how your skills are, all you can say is good.

“I was a little scared.”

“Yes? Phew, it could be! Sometimes I feel like I am being tortured with food.”

Let’s get out of the stew, stew, bread, stew dilemma

Cow, Cattle, Pig, Chicken

Cow, cattle, intestines, intestines

…They put on a fire show in front of their eyes in order.

‘I feel like I only eat meat on the way…’

When I asked if they would serve something like a salad, they said that the livestock we eat already ate vegetables, so if we eat meat, we eat vegetables as well.

This is obviously nonsense.

“…Turn it off”

There was me who was strangely convinced.

Still, he said that he took care of himself, so he brought a few more sauces and served them.

It was an extreme meat restaurant that made me want to eat meat again after eating all of them.

“Whoah… How long have you been eating like this?”

“…Ah, come to think of it”

I turned my head to Minerva.

“I’ll send you the money later, so send me your account or ID. That way I won’t be sending you the money.”

“Oh, yes. I’ll send it later.”

“Don’t forget.”

“…If I forget, wouldn’t it be better for Chrono-san?”

“The child is talking about trouble”

I said to Minerva.

“Each of those trivial things becomes debt and karma. Especially when it comes to money, it’s best to end it quickly.”

“Is that so…Is that so?”

“Isn’t that usually the case?”

In reverse, I became curious about Minerva’s thoughts.

Why does the child naturally give off the nuance of ‘not really like that’?

“Hmm…Actually, this is the first time I’ve said this…”

Minerva’s steps narrowed slightly.

Averting her eyes slightly to the side.

“Because I am the daughter of the guild leader of Athena’s guild. It seems that she has rarely received money for solving the guild’s affairs.”

“What does it have to do with being the guild leader’s daughter and not getting paid for completing her mission?”

“Yes?”

“That’s it, this is this”

“…..That’s because it’s not such an easy story.”

Minerva continued her speech with a soft, clumsy smile.

“I am the guild leader’s daughter. Since I am the guild leader’s daughter, it’s a natural thing to do.”

“Looks like bullsh*t. Do you usually get pocket money?”

“As she is the daughter of the guild leader, she is always able to afford financially. However, all her payment details are uploaded to her father…”

“…Isn’t that actually tied to money?”

“Yes?”

“Isn’t it?”

“Yes?”

“………”

I feel like the answer is strangely mixed.

I turned to Minerva and paraphrased her question.

“So, is there a way to spend the money so that it is not shared with your father?”

“I’m so busy studying… But the guild members gave me a gift so I never really felt lacking.”

“Wrong”

I nodded lightly.

‘I was gaslighted to the point of gas poisoning’

It was only when I was playing games that I knew it to be a difficult child who was oppressed in the family, but

As I listened to it in real time from the side, it was more serious than I had imagined.

“Financial pressure due to passion pay…”

Isn’t it natural for a child to become a heavy metal fan?

As we walked forward, Minerva’s steps stopped for a moment.

“Ah…”

“…Aha”

Across the road

A group of people gathered.

“…………”

In the center stood the bandmen who were singing, playing guitar, and smiling at each other as if they were having fun.

Minerva stares at him still, her hands clenched into fists.

‘…Come to think of it, the reason why I fell in love with metal’

Maybe one of the guild members lent me a metal CD and found out about it or something.

After that, I fell in love with metal and became a metal fan that everyone knows.

As far as I remember, there was also an electric guitar inside Minerva’s closet.

‘That must mean it was stuffy’

In a reality that doesn’t get better no matter how hard you live

The present doesn’t change even if we keep moving forward

Efforts are not rewarded, and in front of a gloomy eyes

Even if you want to sit down, under the precarious floor where even giving up is unacceptable

I was searching for the now invisible “Me”——Around that time, a window appeared in front of my eyes.

[Emergency Mission]

[Show the true bandman]

-This is an urgent mission given by Ur.

1. Good song, play a lot (0/1)

Reward: 1 ticket to play eyepatch

“……Uh”

Ur sister is also true

I sighed briefly and sat down on the bench next to me.

“Mr. Chrono?”

Minerva is taken aback by my sudden action.

I took out my agape and held it in my hand.

“A goddess I know wants to do a band here.”

If you’re busy, it’s okay to leave me.

I said as I switched Agape to an 8K keyboard.

And at my words, Minerva sat right in front of me, smiling as if it were absurd.

“…What are you doing?”

“When it comes to Mr. Chrono’s performance, I have an obligation to listen to him as the number one fan.”

“A fan. Did I have a fan club or something?”

Still, I won’t be too shy

I chose a suitable piece to play.

“That… To tell the truth, it actually exists”

“…Was it really?”

I almost lost my hand along the way, but it wasn’t a big problem.

As an aside

“[KOROSeee to hell, mom and dad!!!!]”

“Kyaaagh! Hell Kaiser Nieee!!!!”

I also played death metal.

…The police also came to see us on the way, and perhaps because of the aftermath of the Master-class performance, they reversed themselves and cast an air rape as an audience member.
