Infinite Gacha - Chapter 238

Kkekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekeke!　Sorry, Gold, for doing you a favor."

Don't mind me, I do what I like to do.

In the cafeteria at the bottom of the Abyss, Mera and Gold were drinking from a long table full of food and liquor in the afternoon.

It was already past noon in the cafeteria, and since there were not many people around, the two were not shy about munching on their drinks and food.

At first glance, this is not a strange sight for a diner, but there is one thing that is different about .......

undefinedThe only difference is that all of the food and drink on the ...... table is bought on the ground.

Kekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekekeke!　Many of the drinks and food on the ground are not very good, but some of them are as good as the ones at the bottom of the abyss.

Yes, yes, yes. It's a pity that people such as Nemmu look down on earthly food and do their best to avoid eating it.

Gold shakes his head as he complains.

What the two are doing is tasting the food and drink Gold bought on ...... the ground.

The reason why they are doing that is because of Mera's hobby.

Her hobby is "gourmandizing.

She spends the wages she earns at the bottom of the "abyss" on food, sweets, and alcohol.

However, after about three years of "gourmandizing," she has eaten everything in the "abyss.

Therefore, he asks Gold to buy food and drinks for him by giving him wages and wages for his time and effort.

Today, he was eating the food he had purchased on the ground.

Gold was also sharing the food and drinks with him.

However, there is no sweet atmosphere between them.

Gold is even somewhat in awe of Mela, who he regards as a colleague working for the same organization.

He is dependable as a colleague, but he is clad in an atmosphere of "I don't want to make an enemy of him.

Today, however, they are having a fun time eating and drinking together.

Mela made a mouthful of dried octopus from her left hand, munching it like gum from the top of her head, and told him how she felt.

Kekekekekekeke!　This "dried octopus" is the winner this time. I had no idea that the octopus balls sometimes eaten in the lowest dining halls of "The Abyss" could be so gross. But when you put it in your mouth, the flavor spreads out like crazy, and it's addictive."

It's dried food sent from a port town in the Dwarf Kingdom," he said. It is said that even among the dwarves, only a few eat it, but if you don't mind the way it looks, I think it tastes good too.

Kkekekeke!　I'll let Ice Heat have some next time. He only eats what's good for him," he says, "and he only eats what he's supposed to eat. I have to feed him something tasty every once in a while. He's a real pain in the ass.

Mela complained about the "hassle" with her mouth, but her voice sounded very happy.

Gold dared not point this out, but let it slide.

Incidentally, Ice Heat's hobby is "training," and she spends her spare time polishing her body art and maid skills. She only eats highly nutritious food in order to maintain and grow her body.

Everything she does is to improve her own abilities.

It has become a regular practice for her best friend, Mera, to bring her favorite food.

When we were talking about Ice Heat, she and Light came into the cafeteria.

Ice Heat is with Light as his escort.

He approaches Mela, the most prominent, when he notices Gold.

'Are you two drinking in the daytime by any chance?

Kekekekekeke!"　No, no, this is just a tasting. I plan to drink a lot of alcohol at night. Mainly I was tasting the food I asked Gold to buy for me.

As you said, the main thing is the food.

The two uttered rambling excuses like a student being chastised by a teacher.

Light let out a slight giggle, sat down next to Mera, and looked at the table.

His escort, Ice Heat, was silent and moved slightly out of the way behind Light so as not to disturb him.

'You mean those souvenirs Gold was buying on his vacation. There's a lot more going on here than I thought."

'I'd go out to the market and buy a few things every now and then when I found the time!　I also get recommendations from shopkeepers and stall wives that I have become friends with!

Gold is actually closer to the people on the ground than Nemmu and I are.

Light, who wears a mask to hide his true identity, is suspicious to look at and makes a subtle first impression.

Nemmu is not even interested in getting along with the people on the ground, as her "Light-sama-first" attitude is too forward and she looks down on them.

Gold is covered in golden armor, but he is a good communicator and gets along with others quickly. He has no prejudice against the inhabitants of the earth.

As a result, he knows a lot of people on the ground.

Mela recommends the "dried octopus" she just had to Light, who sits next to her.

'Kekekeke!　Master, I recommend this "Dried Octopus" for now. Please try it if you like. It doesn't look good, but it's delicious.

Is this the octopus in the takoyaki?"

What?

Ice Heat, who is escorting me in the background, reacts to the grotesqueness of the "dried octopus," and his face gets all intense.

He turns to Mera, "What are you going to feed your master!" She looks at him and complains, but he doesn't care and cuts off the leg part.

She cuts off the leg and presents it to the light.

Light opens his mouth with interest.

Thank you, Mera, uh-oh.

"Que, que, que, que, que!　Uh-oh."

Light does not accept the offered octopus foot, but opens his mouth to urge it.

Mela was embarrassed and said, "Master's ahn face is too cute! He wriggles in his chest and happily offers his octopus leg to Wright's mouth.

Ice Heat and the fairy maids behind her looked at her enviously, but Mera ignored them all.

Light's eyes sparkled, and she let out her thoughts.

'It's true!　It may not look great, but it's delicious, packed with flavor!"

'Keh, keh, keh!　I'm glad you're pleased."

Then I shall present you with my own recommendation this time!"

Next, Gold tries to get Wright to eat his recommendation.

He takes a knife and a moldy lump in his hand.

'Gold, is that really food?　It's kind of moldy. ......"

You can rest assured that it's only the surface that's moldy, and that the insides are edible. To eat it, cut off the moldy part with a knife.

With a practiced hand, Gold cuts the moldy chunks of cheese into bite-size pieces.

He cuts off the moldy part, slices it into bite-size pieces, takes a plate and fork from the item box, and lays them out.

Now, Lord, feel free to eat!"

Wow, I wonder what it tastes like."

Light sticks the cheese with his fork and brings it to his mouth, looking interested.

His big eyes sparkled.

It doesn't smell or taste moldy at all," he said. Rather, it has a rich milk taste with just the right amount of saltiness!

This is a delicacy I learned from a dwarf drinking buddy, and it goes very well with sake. It is a delicacy I learned from a Dwarf drinking buddy, and it goes very well with sake, although it is treated as a ghetto because it looks so bad.

It's true that it looks moldy, and you may not like it at first," he said. But it is very tasty. You should try it, too.

Huh?

Mela blushes up to her ears and makes a cute little noise.

She was so cute because she stuck a piece of cheese into the fork just like the one she had eaten with.

With an innocent smile on his face, he said, "I'll take that as a yes.

I'm just returning the favor for what you just said."

He replies with a smile of smiling goodwill.

The escort, Ice Heat, and the fairy maids looked at me with hearty envy. They were even jealous enough to make a hole in Mera's body.

However, Mela was more upset by the fortunate situation in front of her than by the jealous stares that poured out all over her body.

Ke, ke, ke, ke, ke, ke, ke!　So, then, feel free to ......"

Usually making a mouthful of food from her sleeve, Mela brought her face close to the proffered fork while her face turned bright red.

Her long hair falls down, so she brings her mouth close to it while holding it over her ear with her hand. In doing so, that Mera had a very maidenly expression on her face.

She eats cheese from the fork offered by the light.

I am so nervous, ashamed, and euphoric that I can't quite taste it.

'Keh, keh, keh, keh!　It is delicious. Best cheese I've ever had!"

This is Mera's honest, untruthful truth.

Having been fed by the lights, I couldn't quite taste the cheese, but I could swear that it was the best cheese I had ever tasted in my life.

Ice Heat behind me said, "Ugh, I'm too jealous! He looks at her as if to say, "I'm sorry, but I don't know what you're talking about," but Mela is too red in the face to notice her best friend's gaze.

Thus, Mera happily enjoys the other food and drink on the ground that Gold has bought for her and her esteemed light.

It was the first holiday in a long time, but I can assure you that it was a very meaningful time for Mera.
