At the entrance to the City of Mist, the flamingo and the black and white whale dared not go in at all. They stayed at the entrance, not daring to take a single step and even staying 300 meters away from the entrance!
"Boss, do you have seaweed rice rolls and fish balls?" Since they became famous, many regular customers would look for them at various entrances every time they entered. Because they usually wandered around several entrances and their locations were not fixed, and because regular customers were unwilling to reveal their information to others, not many people knew that they sold their goods.
Yes, how many do you want?
"Two of each kind, or three of each kind! I'm going to go deeper into the center this time, take a look, and then come back. I only have enough gold coins for three of each kind!"
"If I didn't have too many coins, I would have bought the whole ring for you! You know, this is what our loyal customers think of you!"
He made a gesture.
The black and white whale chuckled.
Thank you for your patronage!
"Seriously, no one else is as consistently high-quality and delicious as you guys. You always deliver the +x you're promised. Some of the food I bought in the main city was supposedly made by a master chef, but what happened? It was supposed to add +5 to health, but it only added 2. That's outrageous! And it cost ten or twenty gold coins more each. That's ridiculous!"
He contentedly carried the insulated box containing three seaweed rice rolls and three fish balls.
"Something as delicious and of such high quality as yours is something I don't want to share with anyone else! Hehe!"
Black and White Whale didn't care at all. What they wanted was not to share with others. Sharing would attract unwanted attention and easily lead to external enemies! Besides, they didn't have enough customers yet. Earning money from their old customers was enough. Sometimes old customers would buy on their behalf, and sometimes they would introduce new customers, which was enough to maintain the business. In addition, he had taken on a big order. The advance team from the military had scanned several shops and found several good items. Since the military had already taken them, they wouldn't say anything if they hadn't seen the mark.
"It's okay if I don't share, I don't have enough to begin with!" The main reason is that the lord has very high requirements for fish balls, and often only one or two batches of fish balls can be made by hand after a whole day of pounding.
Small quantities are accumulated over several days before being sold!
"Oh, by the way, why didn't you sell fish balls and seaweed rice rolls last week? I heard from some acquaintances that you sold steamed buns for a whole week!"
Although steamed buns are also very good.
The reason they didn't sell for a week was because Kraken ate all the fish balls and seaweed rice rolls; it was all Kraken's fault.
Every time I go in, I reach out and either ask for fish balls or seaweed rice rolls.
Kraken did save dozens of advance troops that day, but that was because he wanted to eat kimbap!
He will never forget the moment Kraken reached out his hand after saving people!
Then, out of kindness, he contributed fish balls, which... led to this current situation!
He was on the verge of tears!
The advance team fed him dozens of seaweed rice rolls, and in the end, he was saved, and the seaweed rice rolls were all eaten.
He was selling seaweed rice rolls, steamed buns, and fish balls from his huge insulated box.
He then opened the large barrel.
"Aren't you curious why I'm carrying a bucket today? Smell it!"
The man was instantly drawn in by the aroma of the fish soup.
"This is crucian carp soup, it increases speed by 10, and costs 15 gold coins a bowl!"
The man looked troubled; he really wanted to buy them, but he didn't have the money, and all four bags were the same weight!
"Will they still sell them in the future? I guess I'll have to wait until the City of Mist comes out before I can buy one!"
Waaaaah! Why did I have to show him this before he went in?! He can't stand the smell at all! Help!
Within the City of Mist
Kraken had circled several places where black and white whales often appeared, but he hadn't seen anyone. Black and white whales and flamingos hadn't appeared in front of him for several days.
He would get a splitting headache if he couldn't eat the seaweed rice rolls and fish balls he longed for, but his wounds would feel better after eating seaweed rice rolls.
Why didn't they come?
Kraken fell into deep thought.
His tentacles probed every inch of the land of the Misty City, but he found no trace of the two.
Where are they?
If we go out~
If we go out~
That.....
If they're not in the City of Mist, they must be outside. But how can he find them outside? Does his antennae have to reach every inch of the land to find them?
Kraken was conflicted. He wanted to eat seaweed rice rolls and meatballs, but he didn't want to go out because he wouldn't feel as much pain in the mist. If he were outside, the sandstorm would hurt him a lot.
But if I can eat kimbap outside, it's different; if I can eat kimbap, the pain doesn't hurt at all.
But what if you can't find seaweed rice rolls?
Kraken was torn; he was deeply caught in the dilemma of whether to go out or not.
If I go out to find someone, I might get to eat kimbap or I might not, but I will definitely experience pain. However, if I don't go out, I definitely won't be able to eat kimbap, and I will also experience pain, but it won't be as intense.
But the seaweed rice rolls are really delicious, Kraken loves them!
Two little figures were fighting in his mind, and finally countless tentacles appeared to persuade him.
Let's go out and eat your favorite seaweed rice rolls!
Let's go out and eat your favorite fish balls!
Doesn't steamed bun have a place in society?
Steamed buns are delicious too; good fish love to eat steamed buns!
So Kraken, who liked seaweed rice rolls and fish balls but thought steamed buns were just so-so, chose to leave the Misty City during the day.
As an orc, he knew very well that he couldn't drag his massive Kraken body around when he was out in the world; he had to turn back into a normal human!
He retracted all his tentacles and transformed into a normal two-meter-tall man. He rummaged through his room and found a lot of clothes, because you have to wear a handsome outfit to enjoy delicious food.
This one has a tiger on it, it looks very fierce!
[Ah! Could it be that the most ferocious creature isn't the Kraken, but some ridiculous tiger?!]
[How could a tiger be a fart! Don't talk nonsense if you're uncultured!]
I really like tigers, and of course I also like lions and octopuses!
Ah! Aren't octopuses based on us? But we're huge!
[What does it matter? A small one is cute too, but of course I still prefer my big self!]
I sensed a hint of happiness.
Is it because Kraken is going to eat something delicious?
Ah! I can help the Kraken find people! I'm the best at finding people! I can spot them just by smelling them once!
