Chapter 14 (1/2)

《Furthest Town》

「Aahh-, I’ve finally arriveeeed-. For now, let’s eat~!」

「Ara? You ain’t gonna eat? Food?」

「… Itadakimasu.」 [TN: I haven’t seen a direct translation for this phrase, cause it’s an expression of grat.i.tude for food.]

Ah, she’s eating.

Rather, what do spirits eat?

After she transforms into a dragon then… Maybe humans?

「What is it… What’s with that look of contempt……?」

「Ah, it’s nothing, I thought that maybe we should go to a slave market, is all.」[TN: Fuuu… I almost put “I thought you wanna BDSM” XD]

「I do not eat humans.」

「Right~」

We were in the middle of town and facing  a『Taotao hanten.』 [ TN: This is a Chinese restaurant along the way like those ramen places]

‘Cause of the delicious smells that permeate the air, whenever I come here I’ll always eat at 『Taotao hanten,』this is what I swore in my heart.

「Konchya.s.su.」 [TN: Konnichiwa but an informal greetings to places like this.]

「Haai♪ Welcome are-♪ Chief! For 2 people areyo-!」

It’s the poster girl from Tao.

There’s no one more suited for Chinese styled clothes than her, right~.

Especially with that large bosom that’s lasciviously bold and organically arranged, ah~ ain’t china clothes dangerous.

Half of the crowd’s gazes are directed towards that bosom, right~.

Well, it’s different for me, ’cause I came here for the Chinese-style fried rice that I love.

「Chief~. The usual 2-」

「…… Dear guest? This is your first time, right? Coming to this store…」 [TN: Has “Are” at the end of her dialogue, haven’t encountered it in anime so don’t ask]

「Ah.」

A careless mistake.

「Ah~, N, Ah-ah-! 2 Taotao Cha-han!」  [TN: Chinese-style fried rice] [EN: Those sounds effects…]

「A half Cha-han please」

Eh? Half will suffice?

Rather, the spirit also ordered Cha-han……

「Aiyo! Chief~! One and a half Cha-han!」

Ois.h.i.+!

For the mean time, let’s take a break and eat this grub！

「Haaaa~! Delicious~. So happy~」

「……」

After leaving the Taotao Hanten, we searched for the cheapest inn and finished lodging procedures.

Eh? I have nearly 200 million G, so why am I still looking for the cheapest hotel, right?”

However, because I need to save money I don’t want to spend it uselessly.

Furthermore, after adding Ruru to my party the inn fee will be doubled.

Ah, and by the way, from 《Etherclan》 through the ~ mountain district ~ until 《Devil road,》during the three days I have been traveling I have only spent approximately 4000 G…

I opened up my stats window to check how much money I had.

As always, I can’t tell if there’s been any change at a glance…… .

But whatever!

I’ll immediately finish my deal with Alzein by stealing the best sword of the demon lord. Then, I’ll convince a king from some kingdom to hire me as a『Mercenary』 and get rich!

「…… What’s this about money?」

「N? …… Aah, what about it?」

After she finished eating, Ruru broke the silence by asking.

「Is Kazuha… Using that 《Power》 to earn money…」
