I Refuse to Try to Max Out Any Stat So I’ll Just Start Finding My Own Way Around! A Healer That Doesn’t Specialize in Anything, Separates From His Friends, and Goes on His Own Journey - CH 190
“Oh! Hello!” (Lizzy)
“Oh, oh, oh! The fairy talked aaaaah!” (Seam)
Wait! Why did she come in without knocking?! No, even the fairy talked to her… That’s not the case now. What should I do with this situation? What should I do? What does anyone do?
“Oh, it’s the time! Bye!” (Lizzy)
“Ah, ah, ah, fairy!” (Seam)
Seam-san ran to Lizzy, but she disappeared into the void with a poof before she could get to her.
However, I was wondering if Lucille wouldn’t come out this night since she is absorbed in her research, but I couldn’t believe that I was also absorbed in my research and it was already sunset. What’s now?
The inside of my head spins round and round.
“Noo way! That fairy!” (Seam)
Seam-san came rushing toward me breathing heavily. I nudged her back, pushing her forehead back to a proper distance with my hand.
“What are you talking about, Seam-san? Look, there’s only me, you, and Shion here, right?”
“Because I saw it! I saw it!” (Seam)
“Haha, are you still dreaming or do you have a fever? Do you want to cancel today’s party?”
“Haha! Today’s party Cyrus’s treat…” (Seam)
“If you have a fever, you can’t go today… right?”
“I don’t have a fever!” (Seam)
“Then you didn’t see anything, right?”
I end it there and left the room with Seam-san, who was still pouty.
Did I successfully deceive her? However, I was caught red-handed. Well, I was wondering what if someone finds out someday.
The walls of both the inn and this room are thin, and it’s probably not a completely safe place. And there might be similar magic to [Magi Location], or the way skilled martial artists sense presences, or artifacts with special abilities, especially in this fantasy world. …Well, Mimi-san did say something the other day about me hanging around late at night, but I don’t remember her seeing me, and yet she seemed to know. However, I feel that there is some way to close the distance beyond physical walls. In that case, even if the room is blocked by a wall, I cannot be careless.
Hmm… I need to get a better grasp of what things are possible in this world…
For example, if you are a modern earthling, you know that there are cameras. So even in an empty room, if there is a camera, I would be aware of the possibility that someone might be watching me, but people in the Warring States period would not have a sense of “someone might be watching” because they don’t know about cameras. In the same way, I have never been aware of “cameras” in this world because I don’t know about them, and I don’t even know if someone is watching me or not.
Is there something like a “camera” in this world? And if there are cameras, I need to find out what they are.
Well, it is quite difficult to find out in this world where even printing technology, let alone the Internet, is still underdeveloped.
So, in the event that Lizzy, Shion, and I get caught, I need to have as much power as I can. Anyway, I have to make sure that Lizzy and Shion aren’t used by anyone.
“Oh, there you both are. Let’s go.” (Cyrus)
Cyrus-san said, who was waiting downstairs, found us.
Lucille seems to have been called by Cyrus-san.
“Hey, aren’t we going to the dining hall?”
“No, we’re going to my favorite shop today. It’s a little expensive, but it’s delicious!” (Cyrus)
“Wow! Cyrus’ treat!” (Seam)
I’m looking forward to it. I’ve been eating at the dining hall a lot lately, and it’s good, but I’m getting a little tired of it.
I wonder if people in this world don’t get tired of eating the same food every day, but I hear that some countries other than Japan don’t have such a large repertoire of food on their tables, so maybe the Japanese are a bit unique.
The sun was about to set and the four of us were walking through the town dyed red. The restaurant we were looking for was surprisingly close, just a few minutes walk from the Clan House on the main street. Even from outside the restaurant, the indescribable aroma of meat was wafting through the air, and my mouth was already ready and watering.
After Cyrus-san looked at the three of us with a wide grin on his face, he took the lead and opened the door of the restaurant.
The doorbell rings, and at the same time, the aroma of grilled meat wafts through the air.
This restaurant is a winner. It definitely is. How could a place with such a good aroma be a failure?
“Welcome~!” (Waitress)
“Oh, oh, I’m ready to eat!” (Seam)
“Four people. Seam, stop yelling for a second will you!” (Cyrus)
The waitress guides us to the restaurant and we check out the surroundings.
Perhaps because it is a slightly expensive restaurant on the main street, I get the impression that many people are reasonably well-dressed as I look around. It’s not as expensive as the high-class inns I stayed in before, but it’s still upscale. There are people with swords and such who look like adventurers, and the atmosphere is lively, but I don’t think it’s the kind of place where you’d be drinking a lot of booze and just having a good time.
“Is there any Knock Deer thigh meat left?” (Cyrus)
“Yes, we have a lot in stock today.” (Waitress)
“Then, grill some for four people.” (Cyrus)
“What about your drinks?” (Waitress)
“Ale. What about everyone else?” (Cyrus)
I thought for a moment and answered, “The same thing.” Seam-san and Lucille had also decided on ale.
As I recall, ale was not available at that previous high-class inn, and it seems that this is not such a high-class restaurant after all.
A few moments later, the ale arrived in a wooden mug, and everyone’s eyes focused on Cyrus-san.
“The Golden…… no, to our future, cheers!” (Cyrus)
“Cheers!” (Everyone)
I think Cyrus-san was a bit hesitant to say anything, so he just decided to enjoy the ale for now.
There are no bubbles and the temperature is lukewarm, but the flavor that spreads in the mouth is not bad. However, the ale I had in the port town of Ruda was the best I’ve ever had, and I couldn’t help but think of it in comparison to that one.
There is no such service similar to Earth, where local specialties are delivered to your home with a few days’ notice at Something Market or Something-mazon. Moreover, it is difficult to return to that country and town. It makes me feel a little down when I think about it. But that is the result of my choice to travel and not have a home to return to in this world.
