Chapter 206
“I want to eat a magic stone...”
Bowl, who hadn’t eaten a magic stone in a long time, grumbled in pain.
Min Sung took out a magic stone from his window and threw it at Bowl.
Bowl caught it with his mouth and chewed it vigorously.
And then...
Bowl snickered with joy.
After seeing that, the elf and cat creature covered their mouths and giggled.
Ho Sung Lee smiled at them.
“Wow... This world is so different, the city landscape, elves, cat creatures, and all the other beings. I feel like I’m living in some kind of fantasy.”
Ho Sung Lee looked around in awe and laughed quietly.
“It’s also a world where you don’t know when you’ll die.”
Ho Sung Lee looked at Min Sung as if he was asking, ‘Do you have to ruin my mood like that?’, but Min Sung ignored him and continued, “That Yulice.”
As soon as Min Sung mentioned Yulice’s name, the elf and cat creature looked shocked.
They were at a loss for words and showed painful expressions.
But Min Sung wasn’t the type to care about that and continued, “He was so much stronger than the Samchunkyo leader.”
“But you still defeated him no problem,” Ho Sung Lee replied with a confused face.
“The problem is that he was just a novice or a low-level hunter.”
“Oh...”
That was when Ho Sung Lee understood what Min Sung was saying.
The problem wasn’t Yulice, but the other beings they would run into in the future.
If it was this hard in the beginning, there was no telling how difficult it was going to get later on.
“Sir, we’re going to our accommodation now, right?”
“Yeah?”
“There’s probably a restaurant there, so while you eat your meal there, I’ll go and get groceries.”
“One hour on earth is one month here. Once you finish grocery shopping, a long time will have passed here.”
“You might not even be here anymore because of your quests.”
“Yeah.”
“Hm... Then, Sir, there are many ingredients in Ssol’s pouch. Let’s use that for now, and once there’s only 1/3 left, we’ll go down together.”
“Why?”
“I might not be able to get in by myself, and it’ll be hard for me to find you. This place is big, and I don’t know my way around here.”
“That’s true.”
“First, try out the food at the accommodation restaurant, and if it’s not good enough, I’ll cook for you right away...”
Ho Sung Lee was unable to finish what he was saying because of Arin, the tutorial fairy, who appeared out of nowhere.
“It’s not possible for one person of a party to log out. The entire party must log out at once.”
The sudden appearance of Arin surprised Ho Sung Lee and made him gasp.
“Y-you startled me!”
“Hahaha, sorry about that.”
Arin smiled innocently. It apologized and vanished into thin air.
“That fairy just does whatever it wants.”
Ho Sung Lee shrugged his shoulders at Min Sung.
“I guess we’ll have to go together. That means we can’t go grocery shopping for the time being.”
“That’s okay. We still have ingredients.”
When Min Sung said that, the elf and cat creature notified them that they arrived.
The foreign accommodation was on the big side, and the interior was so spectacular that they felt like they were on a vacation.
“Wow, this is great!”
In response to Ho Sung Lee’s exclamation, the elf and cat creature looked at each other and laughed quietly.
***
The elf and cat creature explained the situation to their friends, and their friends hugged them and comforted them through their sadness.
Ho Sung Lee, who was watching them, was surprised to find out that the owner of the accommodation was a cat creature as well.
He wondered if most of the people in Beatrice who weren’t players were either elves or cat creatures.
Bowl and Ssol went looking around the accommodation, and Min Sung quietly waited for the room to be prepared.
A moment later, the owner of the accommodation finished crying and assigned them their rooms.
The elf and cat creature they came with were going to stay here as well.
They got a total of 2 rooms, 1 for Min Sung, and 1 for Ho Sung Lee, Bowl, and Ssol.
After selling the items that Min Sung obtained after defeating the grey wolves for Beatrice money, Ho Sung Lee paid for their accommodations.
***
“Ugh... It’s smaller than I thought.”
Ho Sung Lee saw the size of the room and knitted his brows.
It was no bigger than 5 pyeongs.
“It looked nice on the outside, but the inside looks different.”
Ho Sung Lee grumbled and sighed at Ssol and Bowl, who were lying side by side on the bed.
“Compared to them, I’m always dead serious.”
Ho Sung Lee shook his head. He lit a cigarette and opened the window.
The sun was setting when they entered the accommodation, but it was already pitch dark outside.
The view outside the window was quite nice.
When he saw the road in front of him, he felt like he was on vacation.
The foreign buildings, as well as the tiles on the ground, were all new to him.
On top of that, just the fact that they weren’t even on earth anymore made him feel fascinated and scared at the same time.
He sighed all of those emotions along with his cigarette smoke.
***
Knock, knock-
Min Sung, who was resting on the edge of his bed, slowly lifted his head in response to the sound of knocking.
“It’s Ho Sung.”
He heard Ho Sung Lee’s voice from across the door.
Min Sung got up and opened the door.
“Sir, are you going to eat here? Or should I cook for you?”
“What do you think?”
“Personally, I think you should try the food here to see what it’s like in Beatrice. Who knows if it’s good or not?”
“Where’s Bowl and Ssol?”
“They’re sleeping.”
“Let’s go downstairs.”
“Sure.”
Ho Sung Lee flashed a smile and followed Min Sung down the stairs.
As soon as they got to the restaurant on the 1st floor, the place was empty.
Despite the fact that it was dinner time, the only other customers were the elf and cat creature they came here with.
As soon as they arrived, the elf and cat creature waved their hands.
They were smiling, but the way Min Sung saw it, their eyes were filled with sadness of losing their friends and families from their village.
It didn’t seem like they were trying to hide those emotions, but it didn’t look like they tried to make it obvious either.
They probably didn’t have a particular liking to players, but he couldn’t sense an ounce of ill-feeling from them.
They were actually kind, and that was unexpected.
Min Sung looked at them before sitting in a place far from them.
As soon as Ho Sung Lee sat down next to him, the elf and cat creature sat across from them.
They looked at them in a friendly manner and asked, “You came to eat, right?”
The cute cat creature wiggled her ear and continued, “Would you like our recommendations?”
The cat creature looked like she wanted to make a recommendation, but Min Sung believed that what they recommended would be the most rational choice.
“That would be nice. Thank you.”
In response, the cat creature and elf smiled.
The cat creature then lifted her arms into the air.
“We’d like to order!”
In response, their friend and owner of the accommodation approached with a smile.
“Sure. What would you like?”
“4 orders of Atzmin, 4 orders of ribs, and 4 cups of Crienne Juice.”
“Sure. I’ll get that for you right away.”
The owner of the accommodation winked and left.
The owner of the accommodation, who was on the larger side, was very contrasting with the cat creature sitting with them.
There seemed to be a significant age difference between them.
But it was hard to guess the age of beings from other worlds.
“Come to think of it, I haven’t introduced myself. I’m Ho Sung Lee, and this is my hunter, Min Sung Kang.”
In response to Ho Sung Lee’s introduction, the cat creature and elf introduced themselves as well.
The cat creature’s name was Tasha, and the elf’s name was Shudelian.
“Thank you for saving us.”
Unlike Shudelian’s cold facial expression, her words sounded warm.
“Like I said before, we didn’t save you.”
In response to Min Sung’s remark, Shudelian smiled bitterly.
“If it weren’t for you, we would have been tortured by that Yulice guy,” said Shudelian while looking far into the distance.
He knew what she meant.
Considering the fact that he destroyed their village and dragged two beautiful women around, it was obvious he was planning to use them as slaves.
“Consider yourselves lucky,” Min Sung said.
The cat creature, Tasha, and the elf, Shudelian, couldn’t stop smiling at Min Sung.
While Ho Sung Lee stared at Min Sung in jealousy for monopolizing the two beautiful women’s attention, the food came out.
They were the dishes Tasha confidently ordered.
The first dish, Atzmin, was a food that was often called Arancini on earth.
It was an Italian dish consisting of Ragu sauce, mozzarella, bean rice, and fried bread crumbs, and it resembled the flavor of a large cheese stick.
There was a total of 8.
It was prepared so that each person could eat 2.
Min Sung focused on the Arancini.
‘I wonder how the food tastes in this world.’
‘I hope it’s good.’
Min Sung felt both anticipation and fear as he cut a piece of Arancini with his fork and knife.
As the round ball of Arancini cut into half, white steam evaporated from it, revealing white cheese inside.
As soon as Min Sung Saw that, he was certain.
It was going to be good.
When he picked up a piece, the cheese stretched out.
It was hard to cut off, so he had to keep rolling it up with his fork.
He put a piece of the fried outer layer and cheese into his mouth.
The cheese was hot, and the fried outer layer was soft.
It was unbelievably soft.
It was so high quality that it couldn’t be compared to a simple cheese stick.
The flavors rang through his head and filled his heart.
