Chapter 213
We entered the dining hall and food was brought to us immediately .
It was Danton who brought us the food .
Mors and the young beastkin stood up frantically .
“Mister Danton . You shouldn’t have . ”
“No-no . It’s really nothing! I was bored . ”
Danton said with a laugh and gestured for Mors to sit down .
The young beastkin tried to move towards Danton .
“I’m very sorry . Please, let me help you!”
“Don’t bother . You were standing by the door all of this time, weren’t you? It’s time to rest now . Take a seat . ”
“But…”
“Just do it . ”
“Yes . Thank you . ”
He finally sat down .
Danton nodded with satisfaction .
“Danton . Thank you . ”
“It’s nothing . I was just thinking about eating some bread myself . As a snack, you know . ”
I thought that I should probably tell him that we had essentially forced the young beastkin to sit with us .
I doubted it mattered, but perhaps someone might scold him later .
“He didn’t want to, but we kind of forced him to eat with us . ”
“I see . Well, that’s nice . It’s not every day you get to eat with a great hero . ”
Danton said with a pleasant laugh .
“Ye-yes! It is an honor . ”
The young beastkin said happily .
After that, we had a late lunch .
Food had been prepared for Grulf and Lord Gerberga as well . And they ate it happily .
As Lord Gerberga was a God Fowl, he ate on top of the table .
Grulf ate noisily at my feet .
Danton stayed with us and ate some bread .
“So, what are Shia, Nia, and Serulis doing?”
“I think they might have gotten carried away during their training . They and the children are now sleeping . ”
“That’s good . They should get plenty of rest . ”
“Aye . Shia has really gotten stronger in a short amount of time . ”

“Yes, she is much stronger now compared to when I first met her . ”
“You think so too, Locke?”
“Yes . It’s quite clear to me . ”
Nia was still a newcomer . But Shia was a B-Rank Adventurer .
B-Rank Adventurers could go out on their own . Usually, it was at this point where growth became a little slower .
And so this meant that Shia and Serulis’s sudden growth was a little abnormal .
“Perhaps they are just that age now . ”
“There is that too… But I think it’s mostly because of you, Locke . Thank you . ”
“I don’t see how I had anything to do with it . ”
“No, you definitely do . Being able to watch a first-rate Adventurer fighting would have contributed a lot . And they also get to fight stronger enemies when they are with you . ”
You got stronger if you fought strong enemies .
It was best if you could deal the finishing blow, but just fighting against them also led to growth .
And Shia, Serulis, and Nia had all fought pretty strong enemies .
“That’s true, I suppose . But it’s mainly because Shia worked very hard . You should tell her how proud you are . ”
I said to Danton . He laughed happily .
We continued to eat and talk until Danton seemed to have suddenly remembered something .

“Locke . How are things going with the magic tools?”
“Ah . We’ve made a lot of progress . ”
“I knew you would, Locke . But if there is anything that you need . Just tell me . ”
“We have what we need . We even finished one . ”
“You did!”
Danton’s eyes widened in surprise .
Indeed, it should have taken longer to make something so complex .
And we had developed it from scratch . It should have taken us weeks .
Kathe stuffed meat into her mouth as she said,
“It was all because of Locke . I learned a lot while watching him . ”
“As did I . ”
Mors agreed . He was carefully tearing his bread and eating it .
Luchila also nodded .
“Yes, it was very interesting . I learned a lot from you all . ”
“Cluck-cluck . ”

Lord Gerberga stopped eating and walked up to Luchila .
And then he gently pecked at her hand .
“Lord Gerberga is saying you did a good job too . ”
“Thank you . Lord Gerberga . ”
Lord Gerberga looked satisfied after being petted . He then returned to me and hopped on my shoulder . His plate was already empty .
“Have you had enough, Lord Gerberga?”
“Cluck-cluck . ”
“What about bread?”
I tore off a piece and held it close to him .
“Cluck-cluck . ”
Lord Gerberga ate it from my hand . He looked very cute when he did it .
And so I fed him another piece .
“Cluck-cluck . ”
Lord Gerberga ate the bread and flapped his wings happily .
I was glad that he was enjoying himself .
