Chapter 132 – Merchant City Tetra

The merchant city Tetra that was located south of the capital was already within sight . This bike truly was a fast vehicle .
So Greed was telling the truth when he said that it’s 100 times better than any horse .
It’d take at least 2 days if we travelled on horse, but we only took half a day to get here via bike .

It’s noon already, so we planned to have our lunch in the city . We got off the bike and looked around the city .

[Still as great as before . ]

[Indeed . This is the southern distribution base after all . Look over there! Cute, right?]

[Hoo . ]

Decorative trinkets were arranged neatly on the nearby street stall . Roxy loved this kind of stuff .
When she was still a Holy Knight, Roxy was too busy to even consider wearing any accessories . Therefore, she refrained from looking at the accessories sold in the stalls she passed by .

But now she’s just a wandering swordswoman . She had relinquished her seat back to her father, Mason-sama .
I’d never thought that she would be willing to go that far for me . But still, it made me happy .

[What is wrong, Fai? Why are you grinning like that?]

[No, nothing at all . ]

Apparently it was all over my face . My black sword, Greed, laughed at me for letting my guard down, but I ignored him .
Roxy approached me while tilting her head . Nowadays, I felt closer to her than ever before .

[Since we are here, should we buy something?]

I had so much more money than when I was a servant, I could actually buy most things sold around here .
But Roxy shook her head .

[This is more than enough . ]

Having said so, she showed me the pendant she had kept hidden under her clothes . It was the jewel pendant I presented to Roxy a long time ago .

[I really like this so much, I have no need for more . ]

[I see . ]

While me and Roxy stared lovingly at each other, I sensed a cold gaze coming from behind me . She also noticed it so we turned to the direction of the source .

[I’m sorry for interrupting your fun, but what about lunch?]

[Un un, I’m also feeling very hungry . Can you two keep the lovey dovey stuff for later?]

Both Mimir and Eris said as they look at us with emotionless and empty pupils .
And they continued on .

[We were supposed to be travelling together, but you two are busy journeying on your own world]

[Exactly as Eris-sama said . You two should reflect on yourselves!]

[ [ Sorry…] ]

Both I and Roxy apologized .
Speaking of which, I asked Eris .

[By the way, is it really okay to park the bikes right there at the streetside? Won’t they get stolen?]

[Ahahaha… no worries . Those bikes require at least 1 million magic power to start up . Moreover, they have the royal family coat of arms . Stealing it will get you capital punishment . ]

[Please stop saying something that scary while laughing…]

[Ah my bad, my bad . As I said before, after living for a very long time, there are things that I’ve grown numb to . ]

I remembered Myne said a similar thing before . And that girl had lived much longer than Eris .
Is that really why?
Myne said that her sense of taste had grown numb, to the point that anything she ate tasted the same .
Now she’s not with us anymore though . All because of this so called Door to that Land .
She said that it’s her greatest reason to stay alive for this long, so she couldn’t let it go that easily .

The Door to that Land… All I know for now is that it could resurrect the dead back to life . As a result, Roxy’s father and all the soldiers that perished in Gallia returned back to the capital alive .
And there was also my dad . It’s just that, he seemed to be so much stronger than I remembered, most probably due to some kind of contract .

And it’s not limited to human only . Even monsters that supposedly had been long extinct reappeared .
And most of them tend to be something that the warriors of the current era couldn’t handle . They all belonged to Area E .

Fighting them while not on the same Area E would only amount to defeat, as they won’t suffer any damage . This was the case with the Tenryu . If similar kind of monsters were running rampant, it’ll send the people panicking .

That’s why we are here, chasing Shinn who is attempting to open the Door to that Land, in order to prevent further disasters from happening in the future .
That guy seemed to be lurking near Hauzen . This was what Eris learned after checking on Shinn’s fragment .

If Shinn is there, then Myne should also be there as they have the same goal .
We must find and stop them . Easier said than done, since we are talking about Myne here .
Because she was a natural, her capability is dimensions away compared to mine . There would be a price to pay in order to defeat her .

Thinking so, I felt a little anxious despite that we are still fairly far away from Hauzen . This feeling must’ve been transmitted through my hand, as Roxy held my hand tighter .

[Alright, let’s have some lunch! Since it’s Fai, then the menu must be meat . ]

[Oh, oh! Then I’d like to eat a dish with thick cutlets of meat . ]

[Then through here . There is a tavern there, a short walk along the main street . Their meat dishes are best known for the softness and the deliciousness . ]

[Really?]

[Yes, Mugan-san taught me about it when we were exploring Gallia . And look, here we are . ]

[That person is really knowledgeable . ]

[Un un, he sure is . ]

When the two of us were about to go, what’s with this cold sensation on my back again!?
Turning around, it was Mimir and Eris squinting at us again .

[Have you forgotten what I said already?]

[Out with it!]

These two… are really harsh . I just wanted to have lunch together with Roxy… but I guess that’s not possible .

[ [ I’m sorry ] ]

[Good grief… . So anyways, the lunch will be meat dishes?]

[Yes, Eris-sama . That’s right . Not only that, the tavern also has various fish dishes and many other menus . It’s after all the southern logistics base, so they have plenty and various ingredients here . ]

[I wonder if they also have good liquor . ]

[Of course!]

[Then what are we waiting for!?]

Eris loves alcohol . And she’s a heavy drinker at that .
Even a barrel full of wine won’t be enough for her . When we drank together back at the capital, my eyeballs almost popped out of the sockets seeing her showing off her drinking capability .

[Drink moderately . Otherwise you won’t be able to drive properly . ]

[No worries . After all, Mimir here can replace me . ]

Only then, Mimir who had been looking cute all this time showed a face of confusion . But it can be considered as the Queen’s decree after all .
She glanced at me, her face turned ugly,

[Certainly . I shall do my best in the driving after this, please relax and enjoy your drinking session . ]

[Good girl! Un un . ]

Like an obedient maid, Mimir gave priority to entertain Eris’ wishes . The queen seemed satisfied with it .
That same queen is now stroking Mimir’s head with a smile on her face .
Just now, Mimir seemed to be signaling me for something . Speaking of which, she’s been stuck with Eris up until we arrived on Tetra .
She may have to endure listening to the rambling of that selfish queen while riding on the backseat .

That said, Mimir flashed me the fangs she used to use to suck blood .
Nn!? That means, she’ll need to suck some of my blood tonight .
She had sucked my blood recently, but already asking for more . But considering her mood for having to deal with Eris, I suppose it’s understandable .
When I whispered out a positive, Mimir’s expression instantly turned bright .

[Well then, it’s decided . Our lunch today will be meat dishes!]

[ [ [ Yes! ] ] ]

Un, I’m gonna lose quite a lot of blood tonight . So better be prepared and eat a lot .
We entered the tavern following Roxy’s direction, and suffice to say, it was crowded and lively with customers . There was no table left to sit on .
Seeing this problem, Eris sprang into action .

The enchantment of Lust Skill . I felt a little sorry for the group of customers on the table she approached .

[Can I have the table?]

[Yes! With pleasure!]

[Good boy . You sit there until my lunchtime is over . I’ll even let you watch as I eat my lunch . ]

[Thank you!]

We’ll get into trouble with the tavern if we ended up in a scuffle with other customers, so Eris’ ‘peaceful’ method is actually commendable .

[Well now it’s empty, have a seat!]

[Sometimes it can be such a scary skill . ]

[Right? Do you want to try it out? I’m always ready if you will . ]

[Please don’t! We’re going to have a lunch here… I don’t want to have a nosebleed…]

[Too bad… If you have nothing to do at night, feel free to visit me anytime . ]

Eris winked at me, thinking that she had won . The memory of when she put me into a hellish training to withstand Lust skill enchantment resurfaced in my head .
It’s not something I can completely endure up until now .
While I was sweating cold here, the dishes we ordered arrived . Only Eris ordered a fish dish, while the rest of us picked meat dishes .
I ordered a standard royal beef steak . Meanwhile Mimir and Roxy had chicken steaks with herbal seasonings and stew with lots of milk .
Making a different from the rest vibe was the huge grilled fish in front of Eris .

[Can you really eat all that?]

[Un, no worries . And I’ll have the best wine you have in store!]

With a clap of hands, the waitresses came with bottles of wine in hand . They then set all up around the grilled fish dish .
It’s like we are going to have a banquet here

[Wonderful! Fate want to drink as well?]

[I’ll pass . I still have something to do after this, so I can’t drink . ]

[Nn? Where are you going?]

[A certain grave . I want to confirm something . I should already return by tonight . ]

[I see… too bad . I’ll be drinking alone then… Since Roxy and Mimir don’t drink… how lonely . ]

She gulped down the wine as she said that . I guess she’s already content with starting the banquet alone .
Roxy and Mimir seemed to be in high anticipation since they rarely ate outside of the capital . Cutting the chicken meat and dipping it into the sauce before bringing it into their mouth . Then slurping the stew with spoon .
Each one praised on how delicious the food was, then discussed over lunch about what we shall eat next .

It appeared that the two are getting along well . The Heart family and the Burix family weren’t necessarily on good terms with each other in the past, but I guess that didn’t matter anymore .
Well then, let’s not wait until the steak gets cold . I cut it with the knife, and used the fork to bring the cutlet into my mouth .

[NNnnnnnn!!]

The grilling is masterful! Lots of gravy!
So delicious it felt great!!
As I happily ate my steak, with a heavy drinker sitting next to me, I noticed a group of warriors entering the tavern .
They seemed strong at glance . And judging from their equipment, they must be advanced level warriors .
Seeing that the tavern is fully loaded, those guys came towards our table .

[Oi, you, the one over there . How nice, huh? Being young, but surrounded by beauties! We are hungry here . Can you go away?]

[Hahahaha, that’s right . As the leader say . ]

[Move, you lowlife . ]

Apparently he wanted to kick me out of the table so that he could eat alongside the girls . What a huge daredevil he is .
Ignorance sometimes bring great misfortune .
I’ll just give him some advice .

[Stop it . You should stop spouting nonsense . ]

[What the hell!? Do you know who we are? Have you never heard about us?]

[Whatever . I don’t care anymore, okay?]

[Hahaha, I’ll see what you can do to us . ]

Listening to those words, the girls stood up from their seats .
Roxy won’t allow this kind bullying . As for Mimir, she’s been holding on great amount of frustration from having to deal with Eris for quite a while .
And Queen Eris is just a tad bit annoyed that her fun drinking session was disturbed .

To be honest… I don’t know how to stop them .
Taking the representative role, Eris beckoned them in with a smile .

[Did you say that you want to see what we can do to you people?]

[Oooh, for real? Great!]

[Well then, we’ll just bother the other customers here, follow me . ]

[Let’s go, guys! See ya, young ilk . Enjoy your steak alone!]

Following Eris’ invitation, the warriors exited the tavern in glee . In less than a minute, the girls returned back to their seat .

[Humm~, those guys are troublemakers . ]

[I agree . So there are still people like them among the warriors . ]

[How refreshing . Let’s continue our lunch!]

[ [ Un! ] ]

They sat around the table as though nothing had happened . What the hey… the great feeling that was brought by the delicious steak disappeared in a poof .
That’s why I told them earlier . Don’t disturb their meal time, it’s dangerous .
This reminded me of when Myne was angry… I felt like I’m always surrounded by troublesome women .
