As expected, thereās no online booking in this world, so when making a reservation at a restaurant, I physically visited the place to make the booking.
Well, I could have asked Eta or Theta to make the reservation for me, but I wanted to check the location and do a little scouting, so I went there myself.
[When I went to make the reservation, they mentioned they had private rooms available, so I booked a private room. Is that okay with you?]
[Yeeees. Having to spend time leisurely with Kaito-sama certainly sounds lovelyyyyy.]
At first, I just asked for a regular reservation, but the staff suggested a private room, so I went with it. We donāt have to worry about manners too much, and as Illness-san said, itās better for us to enjoy the meal at our own pace.
Well, anyhow, just like that, we arrived at the restaurant I had looked into beforehand, and the staff guided us to the private room butā¦ā¦ Arehh? This room is more luxurious than I expectedā¦ā¦ For a moment, I thought I had mistakenly walked into a super high-end restaurant with a dress code, as the room was so beautiful and spacious.
[ā¦ā¦This room is more impressive than I thought.]
[Indeeeeed. This is just my gueeeeess, but itās probably a room intended for high-ranking nobleeeees. If I were to compare it to Kaito-samaās woooorldā¦ā¦ This would be a VIP room, isnāt iiiiiiit?]
[Ahh, so itās something like a VIP room huhā¦ā¦ Now that you mention it, when I reserved the course meal, they asked me for a budget limit, and I told them there wasnāt one. Maybe thatās why they mistook me for a noble.]
[Or perhaaaaps, as this restaurant is often used by nobleeeees, they might already know about Kaito-samaaaa?]
When I made the reservation, they explained that they would adjust the wine selection to match the budget, so I told them there was no limit. After all, if Iām going to drink, I want something nice, and besides, I have plenty of money.
Most of my money is entrusted to Anima, but I still have a large amount of white gold coins in my magic box. If I donāt make a conscious effort to spend them on occasions like this, Animaās sharp financial skills will ensure that my wealth increases faster than I can spend itā¦ā¦ I donāt really use white gold coins for things like everyday necessities or my hobbies thoughā¦ā¦ I think the only times Iāve used them were when Iām treating Alice for a meal outside or when I bought something special from herā¦ā¦ So most of my white gold coins have only been used on Alice.
[Iāve heard Iām well-known among nobles, but do you think Iām also recognized by restaurants?]
[Heehhh, Lilia-sanās shops huh. That sounds interesting.]
As we sat across from each other, I received a black-painted list of todayās course menu from the staff. I noticed they were preparing what seemed like an aperitif, while I continued my conversation with Illness.
Iāve heard that besides her Flying Dragon Service, Lilia-san is also involved in running shops, but I havenāt talked much with her about it, so I donāt really know what kind of stores she owns.
Incidentally, the VIP room weāre in apparently has a soundproof barrier around the table, so the staff preparing the aperitif nearby canāt hear our conversation. When they enter the barrier, they always announce themselves with an āExcuse our intrusionā, so this place is probably a room nobles use for private discussions.
[Milady owns two stores around this areaaaaa. One of them deals with tabletop interior gooooooods.]
[Tabletop interior goods? Thatās a bit unexpected. Ahh, but now that you mention it, Lilia-sanās mansion does have several high-end-looking tabletop decorations, so I guess she has a good eye for that kind of thing?]
[Milady has theeeeeseā¦ā¦ peculiar connections through introductions from those who handle modeeeels, so I believe she does have the affinity for iiiiiiit.]
Right, she did buy a lot of those expensive dragon modelsā¦ā¦ It makes sense that she used the connections she made back then to source tabletop interiors as well.
[The other one is a jewelry stooooore. It was established about a year ago, but it seems to be doing quite weeeeell.]
[A jewelry storeā¦ā¦ Ahh, could those be jewelry from the Blue Diamonds and Ice Crystals Isis-san gave her?]
[Yeeees. The jewelry store also includes thooooose, but after thaaaaat, her connections also expandeeeeed, allowing her to consistently source high-quality geeeeeems, so she decided to open the stoooooore.]
As to be expected of a Duchess, Lilia-san seems to be involved in a lot of different ventures. A jewelry store actually sounds like a smart move. If Sieg-san approves, they could even handle Selaās Midnight Diamonds, which would likely be quite profitable.
Serious-senpai: [I think itās more like Liliaās connections expanded dramatically thanks to Kaito, and as a result, she ended up getting involved in a lot of different things. As for the jewelry store, Lunamaria did make some foreshadowing comments about it, so it feels like that plot point has finally been picked up after a few yearsā¦ā¦]
