ăHey, Suzuran . What should weă ăMeată ăAa, I had somehow expected thată
Before returning to the inn, I saw a store thatâs selling karaage so I guess weâll try to go there .
ăLetâs eat here . I came across this place when I was exploring earlier . They sell something called karaage which is chicken meat deep-fried in oilă
Or so it seems but I havenât eaten it before so Iâm not really sure .
With that said, we entered the store . The store was actually pretty crowded inside but wasnât to a point where we couldnât find ourselves a seat . Good thing I ate a bit before lunch .
ăWelcome . Have you decided what youâll have yet?ă
I donât know what her race was but a well-built oba-chan came and took our order .
ăIâll have the karaage lunch set andâŠă ăIâll have that tooă
The oba-chan replied, âGot itâ, before returning to the kitchen .
Not even ten minutes has pa.s.sed and our karaage lunch set was brought to our table .
ăThanks for waiting! Since the little missy hereâs a bit too thin, I added one more piece as an extraă
Was what the oba-chan said as she placed our food on the table . Well, itâs true that you can tell sheâs female from the length of her hair and her voice . However, if she cuts her hair is on the shorter, thereâs no way you wouldnât see her as just a beautiful androgynous guy .
On our table, thereâs a fork, a plate with a slightly larger portion of karaage, shredded cabbage, sliced tomatoes in mayonnaise, regular sized white bread and water . As expected . Thereâs still no rice . Too bad . Well, I guess it canât be helped .
After we said that, Suzuran immediately put the karaage in her mouth . Just when I thought I saw her opening her eyes wide a bit, she started hastily eating it . Isnât it hot?
I also started eating mine . After getting rid of the smell with herbs, itâs seasoned with flour and salt . Is this that *salt fried chicken thing? Whether you frequently bought it or made it your self, you would encounter that soy sauce flavor a lot . That method is good for me, however it doesnât seem like the use of soy sauce has been widely introduced yet . {*TN: Or salt-baked chicken}
Suzuran raised her hand and said,
ăThree more helpings of karaageă
She immediately finished eating her first plate and made an additional order . Her clear voice resounded inside the noisy store .
The oba-chan replied as she went to the kitchen so it seems like they heard her .
ăArenât you eating too much? You still have your cabbage and tomatoes left . Make sure to eat those tooă ăGiving it upă
With that said, she transferred all of her untouched vegetables to my plate . The vegetables on those three additional orders will probably come my way as well .
ăHere you go, three additional orders . Whatâs this, is the little missy the one whoâs eating all of these? I wonder why youâre so thin if you eat this much . How enviousă
Ha ha ha, while saying that, she laughed as she went back . Seriously, where is all that meat going to?
ăAnother plate of karaageă
Even though she still hasnât finished the other two, she ordered even more . The remaining contents of the two plates disappeared as her next order came .
ăWhatâs this, itâs the little missy again? You should eat all of your vegetables too, you know? Didnât I see you give all of your vegetables to your boyfriend over here?ă
So they see me as her boyfriend, huh⊠Well, that makes it seem like Iâm loved so it doesnât feel that bad .
Letting out a slightly short breath, she looked like she was thinking about something . While she may have had a slightly alluring expression, thereâs a high probability that sheâs pondering about whether or not to order another helping .
The face of someone contemplating about one of lifeâs mysteries⊠To karaage or not to karaageâŠ
ăSince Iâm the one whoâs paying, you can order more if you still want to eată
When I said that, she immediately declared,
ăTwo more plates of karaage!ă
It seems like it was very delicious .
The oba-chan came back, karaage in hand, with an astounded look and Suzuran immediately started eating . As one would expect, we were receiving gazes from our surroundings . Iâm already full with just these vegetables . , someone please save me .
ăThat would be 4 large silver and 6 coppers . I was worried when I saw the little missyâs way of eatingă{TN: 1 copper= „ 100, so he spent around „400,600 or around $3,600 worth of karaageâŠ}
ăI also didnât expect that sheâll eat that much . And thank you very much for that extra piece of karaageă
I compliantly paid while I said that with a dry laugh .
ăIt was just a mere drop in the bucket thoughă
was what she replied while laughing .
That amount was enough for a family of four to reserve a cheap restaurant for themselves . What kind of stomach does she have? I canât complain since I said Iâll pay for it but I think itâs still a mystery where those karaage she ate went .
On a later date at Suzuranâs house, a chicken coop was built and I saw Suzuran was happily taking care of the chickens .
ăAh, so you started raising them after allă
I couldnât help but let that comment leak out .
After we went out of the restaurant, we loitered around accessory and baked sweets shops . It doesnât seem like Suzuran likes any accessories and sweets in particular . I was the one eating sweets instead .
After walking for a while,
ăFollow since have place I want to goă
Thatâs what she said so I followed her but this is really suspicious . A place with a lot of brothels has come into view . The sunâs still up you knowăŒ .
ăUhmmâŠSuzuran-san? No matter how you look at it, the place that you want to go to is a loverâs inn . Does this mean weâre going there?ă{TN: I donât know how to translate aibiki yado(éąćŒćźż)} ăThatâs right . Made reservations during yesterdayâs walk with Mir and Kuchinashiă
Sc.h.i.n.ken! So this was the meaning behind your unpleasant facial expression! Wurst and Speck not being in the inn during lunch was probably because of this! I was set up! I was an idiot for trying to read the mood . Mirâs invitation to the crepe stall was probably just a decoy!
ăEven though itâs still noon?ă ăDoesnât matteră ăAhăŒ, UhăŒ . Should I pay the cancellation fee?ă ăYou canâtă
She dragged me off to force me to go . So powerful⊠Arenât you quite desperate?
Since it canât be helped, I decided to resolve myself in various ways . It was probably the three idiots and the rest of our cla.s.s who conspired to make this happen .
Entering the room, there was a wide bed, clean sheets and towels and a bucket full of water . While having a look of an animal that has seen its prey, Suzuran closed the door and locked it with the key . Untying the string of her jinbei, she slowly came closer to me . Her eyes were glittering that, to be honest, I was starting to get scared of Suzuran .
ăItâs okay since wonât succeed todayă ăI donât know what you mean by that but happy to receive your consideration . Well thenă
Well, I think itâs probably âthatâ thing .
After I said that, she pushed me down and immediately mounted me around my waist area . I tried resisting but couldnât shake her off since she was stronger than me . Then, she strengthened her hold even more and kissed me . My wrists hurt . Of course, our kiss tasted like a combination of karaage and castella cake .
Doesnât this seem like our roles are reversed?
Ehem, AnywaysâŠâŠRight now, the sunâs just about to set . The evening sun is dazzling . If we returned to the inn right now, weâll still make it in time for dinner . Itâs not like I didnât have any experience on my previous life but that was too intense . Where the h.e.l.lâs the rodeo?
Compared to me who was slightly drained, Suzuran was glowing . As we were walking while linking arms, I was called out .
ăOnii-san, our placeâs clean and cheap, you knowăŒă
But, with a weak smile, I declined . She probably sensed something as she saw Suzuran in high spirits next to me so she stopped calling out to me . The others who were about to call me did the same . They probably thought it was two guys when they tried inviting us to the brothel but when Suzuran glared at them, they quieted down .
It was already time to eat when we arrived at the inn but, since itâs taking me my all just to move around after that, I only felt like eating something light . It might be just my cla.s.smates being considerate of us but it was just me and Suzuran on our table . Compared to my feeble movements, Suzuran was eating her dinner normally . Are you the embodiment of physical strength!
The guys were grinning but, since I had a slightly drained look and wasnât really touching my food, their grin changed to a slight look of concern . And the girls groupâs gaze changed into an anxious look . Iâll probably be interrogated tonight . As I was thinking about that, I ate my sandwich while washing it down with water .
When I returned to our room, Wurst asked while grinning .
ăHuh? You guys set me up, right?ă
Their apologetic looks meant I was probably right .
ăI thought it would breakâŠâŠ Iâll just leave the rest to your imagination . Iâm going to sleep alreadyă
I lied down first and when I looked at the guys, they were grasping their nether regions .
Meanwhile, on the girlsâ room, squealing sounds could be heard .
We left the inn the next morning . On our way, we encountered two goblin monsters but, since Sc.h.i.n.ken defeated them easily, we were able to return safely .
The next day after we returned I was thoroughly questioned by Ichii-san as I came to pick Suzuran up since she overslept so I honestly told him what happened . I thought he was going to hit me but that didnât happen . He got angry at first but then, he solemnly said,
ăI see⊠Sorry âbout thată
The question of whether or not heâll forgive me was resolved by the fact that her own daughter s.e.xually a.s.saulted her male childhood friend .
ăWell, since I like Suzuran so this was bound to happen someday thatâs why itâs alright with meă
When I said that, I was glared at for a bit . Itâs definitely better for me if I refrain from saying unnecessary things .
Oh well . With this, it feels like Iâve gotten the parentâs recognition . However, since there arenât a lot of places weâll be together in private, itâs probably better to think that weâll have only a few chances to do that . To be honest, Iâm not sure if I should feel relieved or disappointed .
