Golden Pavilion Tavern.
Hulim and the four members of the "Silver" team were waiting for the food to be served from the kitchen. During this time, Hulim kept staring at Irene for some reason.
"Um, is there something on my face?"
Noticing Hulim's gaze, Irene touched her face and asked.
“… …”
Hulim thought for a moment, then decided to ask:
"Ms. Irene, have we met somewhere before?"
"Um?"
Irene was stunned when she heard this, and then she looked at Hulim's face carefully.
"Hearing you say that, I also feel like you look a little familiar, Hulim..."
"Um, Hulim seems to be——"
"Look familiar? Hey, hey! Irene, are you from the same hometown as this... ahem! Miss Hulim?"
Froz, interrupted, shut up silently.
"No, I don't think I have such a fellow countryman."
Irene shook her head.
“But I do have another impression.”
"Hmm, where have I seen this before..."
Just as Irene was thinking hard.
A flash of inspiration came to Hulim's mind, and a certain fragment emerged.
"Ah... I remember now."
That was a few years ago.
During a certain journey, he once rode in the same car with a magician girl. He was impressed by her skills when they fought against the goblin attack together, so he still remembered her.
"Miss Irene, are you from the Pasala Empire?"
"Eh? Yeah, I am!"
"From the Earldom of Leicester?"
"That's right! How did you know? Could it be that... we're really from the same hometown?"
"No, Miss Irene, you may have forgotten, but we did ride in the same car together and fought against the invading goblins together."
"ah--!"
Irene stood up suddenly.
"I remember now! You were that ridiculously strong little girl back then!"
"?"
Ridiculously strong... ...do I have it?
Remember that it was mainly the adventurers who contributed at that time?
Just when Hulim was wondering if there was any discrepancy between his memory and Irene's.
Irene said happily:
"What a coincidence! I remember back then, I felt really bad that I didn't know your name. I never thought I'd meet you again one day~!"
"This is what is called fate between adventurers."
Lucian said with a smile.
"What? You two are really old friends?"
Russell was also surprised.
"Old friend? That counts as one, right?"
Irene nodded, then turned to Hulim and said:
"By the way, Hulim, can you tell us a little bit about yourself? Did you come to Bangisto alone?"
“I did come here alone…”
Hulim answered,
"What exactly does Miss Irene want to hear?"
"Just call me Irene."
“Hmm…”
"E-lin-!"
"...Okay then, Irene."
"Hmm! That sounds much better~! Just tell me about your experience in Bangisto, and we'll tell you about ours~!"
"Wait, you two, stop getting so close! I'm the one treating you, so please respect the host, okay?"
"Russell, I'm talking to you..."
"Everyone, your orders are ready!"
The tavern waiter came over to them, carrying a few trays.
"Ah, thank you so much!"
After lunch was served, Hulim looked at the large plate of golden food in front of her and finally understood why it was called the Golden Set Meal.
It's really golden and shiny.
I wonder what this golden honey tastes like...
Thinking of this, she raised her fork and poked a piece of food on the plate.
As the food enters the mouth,
The soft and sweet taste instantly spreads throughout the mouth.
This texture, while clearly meat, feels as if it's been soaked in honey. While retaining its original flavor, it also adds a natural freshness. More importantly, the originally tough meat has become incredibly soft due to the soaking, breaking apart with a gentle bite...
Looking at Hulim's expression, Irene smiled and said:
"Right~? It's really delicious~!"
"Amazing cooking method."
Hulim nodded in admiration.
"That's why this place is so popular~! It's a little pricey, but after finishing a mission and eating something this delicious, my tiredness instantly fades away!"
"Yes, more importantly, this pub has a wide variety of wines. Would you like to drink something?"
Lucien gestured while holding up the wine glass. The wine in his hand was called Meteor Shower. It had a rainbow color, and bubbles kept blooming on the surface, then turned into light spots and fell back into the glass. It looked like a super tiny meteor shower. It was a wine whose name was clear at first glance.
"Thank you, but I don't drink."
"Lucian, don't persuade younger girls to drink..."
Irene said speechlessly.
"Oh, sorry, sorry!"
"It's okay, Mr. Lucien, you don't have to apologize."
"Hulim is really forgiving. But just like Irene, you can just call us by our names. We are all adventurers, so we tend to be direct."
