Near the adventurer guild, it looked like any normal small house from the outside.
Bors-san brought us here on the first day, and I had been wanting to come here again ever since butā¦ā¦..in the end, it wasnāt until now that I got the chance to come here again.
To save on costs, Esta tends to make our dinners and I didnāt want to discredit her hard work which was part of the reason I never came here by myself.
Well, the food Esta makes is great as well, but I am glad I got one last chance to come and eat here again before leaving.
ā¦ā¦ā¦..well, when I put it like that, I feel bad not getting enough reservations to bring Ralf, Esta and Snow as well.
Like Bors-san said, I really should have made sure to bring everyone but, I can always bring them again on the last day before leaving as well I suppose. Making a note in my head to do that, I stood in front of the storeās entrance
āIām getting excited just standing near the entrance makes me excited! I skipped on lunch as well so Iām extra hungry tonight!ā
āThis smell, is just incredible. Your mouth canāt help but start watering just from getting a whiff of it.ā
āI havenāt eaten anything since my breakfast! You said this was your final thanks for us right? Iāll be sure to eat aplenty then!ā
āYeah, sure, go ahead. Iāve been helped a lot by all of you so donāt hold back and eat to your heartās content.ā
The scent of the meat coming from beyond the door alone was enough to get everyone fired up and start talking, as I finally pushed open the door and entered the place.
As always, the insides were narrow, and this time we hadnāt come when then place was closed so it was filled with other customers, although there exactly four seats still empty.
āWelcoā¦ā¦ā¦oh, itās you Bors.ā
āHey, whatās with the disappointed look! Arenāt I an esteemed regular here!!ā
āOh shush. There are other customers as well so keep it downā¦ā¦ā¦..there, you can go and sit over there.ā
Urged by the owner, we sat down on the four seats near the counter.
The iron plate used to fry the meat was right in front of us as always, and I was reminded of just how good the meat that was served straight from that plate was.
Smelling the delicious scent of the meat coming from the other customersā plates, like Rupert, my stomach began to make a noise as well.
āSo, what will you guys take today?ā
āWyvern stake for everyone. As for the portionsā¦ā¦ā¦.you can ask each of them separately.ā
āIāll take a full 500gm serving! Iām starving!ā
āIāll take a 300gm one then.ā
āIāll take 300gm as well. Rupert, what about you?ā
āIāllā¦ā¦..make it 250gm for me!ā
āGot it. Total 1350gm. Give me a moment to cut and weigh it, then Iāll begin cooking.ā
With our order given, the owner went back inside to get the meat.
Last time we didnāt have such an exchange but apparently each customer can pick their own size of serving here.
After a while, the owner returned with 4 plates of meat cut in different sizes.
300gm seemed like a big serving already, but 500gm basically looked like a big lump of meat.
āAlright then, Iāll begin frying it. Be sure to eat it while its hot.ā
Saying that, he began frying the meat on the iron plate in front of everyone.
Just like last time, the smell and sound of the meat frying and the juices bursting out of it assaulted my sense of hunger.
I gulped down on my spit, and my eyes were fixated at the meat whenā¦ā¦ā¦
It was done cooking, and the owner swiftly moved and served it on to my plate to enjoy.
āItās done. Dig in.ā
āThen Chris! Iāmma chow down on this!ā
āYeah. Enjoy it to your heartās content.ā
āThanks for the meal.ā
āThanks for the meal!ā
Giving our customary pre dinner greeting, we all stuffed our cheeks with the wyvern meat.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦..this is genuinely amazing. Too good!
If I had really died back in that cavern, I never would have been able to enjoy this taste again.
Iām glad I was still aliveāā-it tasted so good it unironically made me feel this way.
Bors-san, Rupert, and even the usually docile Rufus, were all gorging down on their portions of the meat.
The serving quantity was bigger than what we got last time, and even normally, eating a whole stake took some time yet, because we were wolfing it down silently, before we knew it, all of us had finished our portions already.
āMan, that was incredibleā¦ā¦..!ā
āI canāt believe I finished it so quickly. My mouth and tongue feel so happy.ā
āWhat a blessed day! Chirs-kun, thank you so much!ā
āno no, If anything, I apologize for only able to treat you with good food as thanks for everything youāve done for me. And once again, thank you guys for all your help since we came to Edestor. I mean it.ā
Getting a word of thanks from them, I too gave them my gratitude.
Bors-san, especially, had been a tremendous help to me, and even went out of his way to befriend someone as asocial as myself.
He even treated me to this very stake before as well, so simply treating him back doesnāt feel like Iāve done enough butā¦ā¦ā¦.
Iām glad I was at least able to do something to show my appreciation.
āThat goes both way. It was quite the experience meeting and coming to know you, you know? Iām humbled that you go out of your way to honour a mere platinum rank like myself as your teacher!ā
āWell, I did most definitely mock you enough at the start when we met though.ā

āWell, thatās part of what that made me interested in you in the first place! Good luck at capital as well! Well, Iāll come see you once again on the day of your departure though!ā
āYeah, thanks. You guys as well, keep working hard to promote from Platinum rank as well.ā
āAnd heās back to being a cheeky little shit again!ā
āWell, I doubt Chris-kun ever learnt how to properly show respect to his elders huh!ā
āAlso, I donāt like why and how Bors is the only one that gets the ā-sanā suffix.ā
While chatting of such things, we finished our top class dinner at the [PekoPeko].
