I don't know you at all.

I say, and when I let go of his head, the handsome man falls to the floor.

'You... you think you can get away with this for free! I'm going to shut this place down.

Why don't you do it?

I stay at this inn, but I don't run it!

'Wait a minute~? It's my shop!

Mr. Moch is screaming his heart out. Well, I'm going to scream.

”Very well. I'm gonna teach you a real meal.

When the handsome man said that, the infos flowed.

''A special quest 'Cooking contest battle' has occurred. Do you want to accept it?''

Special Quest ”Cooking Contest Battle”: Difficulty Level B

Win a contest-style cooking battle against an amazing chef.

Rewards vary depending on contest scores!

Heh, that's an interesting quest. It's a tough one, but I'm not going to let this guy beat me.

”Yeah, I'll take that one. I'll take that challenge! I'm going to teach you a lesson to a bon vivant who has no decorum or anything else. The spirit of a chef!

The customers in the shop boil over at my words.

'Good! Teach him some manners! Boy!

Let him beat the crap out of you.

Show him the power of the people!

The handsome man snickers at his guest who looks like that and turns to leave, but I call out to him. 'You're forgetting something important,' he says.

'You didn't pay for your tsukune,'

I don't have any money to pay for that!

Heh. That's how you get away from playing me? What you did was robbery, eating and drinking without paying. If you get caught, I win the game, right?

Huh!

The handsome man turns red in the face, slams the money on a nearby desk and leaves the store.

'Every time~'

That's what Mr. Moch says, but he's obviously laughing.

And when the man is completely gone, all the customers in the shop start laughing at the same time.

'Duh! Hahahaha! You saw that! His face!

”Oh, no, I'm good to see! Oh, brother, you said it best! That was awesome!

”We're rooting for you, man! See? Everyone!

”Oh!

'Today is a feast! Manager, please add more sake and tsukune~!

I want one too!

'Yes, yes~. I'm sorry, Takuto-kun, but can you make tsukune? Oh, you can add more for Lily, okay?

Yes, sir.

Apparently, today's plans have changed. That good-looking pride of yours, I'm going to send you to the depths of hell.
