Itās a nice place where you can try out different kinds of beer everyday, and the different taste which they provide.
After a long day of work, I came here with Alice and Rebecca.
Since black beer was recommended to us for the day, we started off with that first.
[I heard about it.] (Rebecca)
When I asked her what was it, she stared me dead in the eyes.
Hey, if you asked me in that manner, obviously I would ask what is it about.
[Are you saying that itās something not worth remembering?] (Rebecca)
[Thatās not it, I really have no idea which case youāre talking about.]Ā (Ryouta)
[ā¦..Itās about the Bodore.] (Rebecca)
[Aah, that one.]Ā (Ryouta)
I clapped my hands together with one of my hands in a form of a fist.
[Youāre talking about the guy who published a method in farming in the dungeon?]Ā (Ryouta)
[Yeah, thatās right. For that kind of guy to do such a thing ā¦seriously.] (Rebecca)
[I was irritated as well.]Ā (Ryouta)
[Donāt be fooled by such a cliche looking criminal!] (Rebecca)
Rebecca sharpened her lips.
Bang! She slammed her glass on a coaster that was placed on top of the table.
Canāt believe she was angry about it.
[Even if you say thatā¦.]Ā (Ryouta)
I scratched my cheeks with my fingers.
Even if this case were not to have happened, I would still publishāāpublicized the method to everybody regardless.
In a sense, itās something that weāre used to as we can just read it on Wikipedia or some other websites.
Thatās how we deal with cheaters, by publicizing itā¦.
However, it does not seem like Rebecca liked that very much.
[Yeah, yeah I get it. I just want to let off some steam, thatās all.] (Rebecca)
[Iām glad that you understand.]Ā (Ryouta)
[But why would you waste your time!] (Rebecca)
Rebecca had a completely upset look.
[I donāt think itās about that.]Ā (Alice)
Alice who has been playing with her fellow monster friends finally spoke up.
[What did you say?] (Rebecca)
[Itās in Ryoutaās nature to do it. When troubledāāthatās not it, he canāt leave that person alone if there are troubled.]Ā (Alice)
[I know that already!] (Rebecca)
Alice said with a sweet and lovely smile, as if enjoying it.
In response, Rebeccaās lips became even sharper.
[It seems that you have a lot of time to spare as well!] (Rebecca)
[Yes! To bring the spirit and walk aroundā¦..Eei!] (Rebecca)
Rebecca then snatched away the peanut that Alice had her hand, then took away Mera-mera as well(!).
[Here, take this! And that! Iāll make you into that!] (Rebecca)
Rebecca then rolled Mera-mera around, like a child playing with clay and mushing it and rolling it around to make it like a dumpling.
The flames of Mera-mera became bright and dark, and when Rebecca had finally released it, itās eyes were [@@].
How should I put itā¦.sheās clearly drunk.
Well at this stage she still acts cute even while drunk, so I guess itās fine for now.
With Mera-meraās incident, Alice and Rebecca started chatting about.
They left me and started talking amongst themselves.
Looking at the two of them, they resemble each other.
Both of them were born from inside the dungeon.
Though their characters are total opposite, but when you look at their background, itās similar.
Suddenly, Boney-chan lost her balance.
The doll sized monster who stood up and wanted to drink the cup that Alice placed on the table made her lose her balance on her foot and fell.
Rebecca quickly reached out and helped cushioned her fall.
[Thatās dangerous, if she wants to drink, give her a smaller cup then.] (Rebecca)
Boney-chan then bobbed her head up and down as if saying [thank you].
[Youāre kind.]Ā (Ryouta)
[Monsters are special.] (Rebecca)
[Is it because youāre born in a dungeon?]Ā (Ryouta)
[Yeah, thatās right.] (Rebecca)
After being saved, all of Aliceās monster friends went closer to her.
Seems like they both get along well with monsters as well.
[ā¦..Itās noisy outside.] (Rebecca)
Rebecca who was feeding Gau-gau with potato fries said.
At the entranceā-was an adventurer who looked like he has a spirit name attached.
[Now that you mention, it is noisy. Ah, did something happen?]Ā (Ryouta)
I then caught one of the waitressā attention and asked.
[Seems like a rogue monster is running loose.]
[Yeah, but itās all alright, since everyone else is getting rid of it. Only reason why itās rowdy is cause it keeps appearing again and again.]
I was intrigued by the part where it keeps appearing.
Itās rare for rogue monsters to appear in the streets, whatās more a lot of them at once.
Maybe something else happened?
I stood up and take a look outside.
The city of Shikuro is noisier than usual, as you can hear the sounds of battles here and there.
[So have you heard, apparently this happened because of Ryouta.]
[Ryouta, you mean that <Grandmaster> Ryouta?]
[Yeah, seems like that guy was spreading monsters here and there.]
I heard passerby gossiping about the situation.
I did it? But thatāsāā
[Impossible.] [Impossible.]
The two of them spoke in unison.
When they heard what they had said, they laughed together.
They suddenly appeared right behind me.
[What ridiculous things are they spouting, itās impossible for you to do that.] (Rebecca)
[Yeah yeah, Ryouta will never do that. Iām sure everyone in the city knows of it.]Ā (Alice)
They keyword to this city is more to [if you do something unreasonable, Ryouta will find you].
So it should be few who believe in such gossip spreading around the city.
However, I canāt leave it alone.
As rogue monsters are actually out there, damage may occur to unforeseen people.
[Iām sorry you two, Iāll head out for a moment.]Ā (Ryouta)
[Alright! Good luck out there!]Ā (Alice)
[Do whatever you want.] (Rebecca)
After being sent off by the two of them, I went out of the store.
After Ryouta left, only Alice and Rebecca remained.
Alice was smiling, but Rebecca seemed to be bored.
The two of them were standing side by side while looking at the back view of Ryouta.
[Seriously, what kind of man is he.] (Rebecca)
[Eeh, even though you know it well.]Ā (Alice)
Alice placed her hands on her mouth and smirked.
[Saying something like doing things twice. But I can see that you observe him well.]Ā (Alice)
[[ā-I donāt know!] (Rebecca)
Rebecca who got figured out stepped on the floor and went back into the store.
[Ahaha, so not honest~]Ā (Alice)
With a sense of familiarity, Alice followed Rebecca and returned to the store.
