I Was Connected to Earth’s Black Market From Another World With The Skill [Market]! - CH 115

Chapter 115 – After A Meal Banquet

The problem seems to be somehow resolved for now, so I gather the refugees and begin preparing for lunch.

Considering the situation in which I could not prepare a furnace, I prepared a large pot full of stew and the usual flatbreads. I also cut up a huge chunk of meat that had already been grilled and distributed it to the refugees.

“What is this meat? It tastes like a combination of beef and lamb. It’s so delicious…”

“That’s the land-running dragon we killed in Casemaian, you know.”

“Eh!?”

As expected, everyone has that reaction. I hope it can make them happy, though.

“Then this one, which is something between chicken and pork, is…”

“Winged dragon.”

“””?”””

“No, don’t be so surprised. We’ve never eaten anything like that before, too, you know.”

“…What’s wrong with it?”

“These are the dragon cavalry that invaded Casemaian in the previous battle. The elven warriors killed many of them, so I thought I’d give them a taste.”

“””Delicious…”””

“The stew was prepared by the Casemaian women. The vegetables, herbs, and mountain bird meat came from the nearby forests. Isn’t it good?”

Yes, I know, but I don’t contribute to the hunter-gatherer lifestyle at all.

“Yes, it’s delicious. Very, very tasty…”

“The Marquis’ territory is close to the sea and has lakes, so there are many fish dishes. The food is also delicious, but the food of Casemaian is delicious.”

Lionora-san looked happy with her grilled meat, chomping down on it while giving her commentary. She may look human, but she is also half beastman, so perhaps she prefers meat.

“Fish, huh? I went all the way to the sea, but I didn’t have time to eat it.”

“Do you like fish, Yoshua? We can visit there again. We can visit sometime when it’s more peaceful.”

“Is there no sea near Casemaian?”

“I heard that there is a port town beyond the Dark Forest, but it would be difficult to go 300 miles beyond the home of the magical beasts.”

Is there a sea in the north as well? I would love to go there someday if I can find a way through the forest.

“It was delicious…”

Unlike the other refugees, they were not persecuted in the marquis’ territory and did not seem to be in need of food, but the food from Casemaian still seemed to be well received.

Since no one seemed to have touched the 1.5-liter bottles of mineral water and snacks that I had loaded in the truck, I handed out the bottles and snacks to each of them, showing them how to open the packages.

According to their story, it was not that they did not know how to open them but that they were too nervous about doing so.

The children sipped their water and cackled at the pastries.

Luvia-san, who had been asked to keep an eye on the surroundings, came back to switch places with Myrril. I also went to the ridge of the hill where Owe-san was standing to take a turn with her.

“Owe-san, let’s take a turn. Please take your meal.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty the Demon King. But, before I do that, I have a few things to tell you.”

Owe-san was in charge of the top of a small hill in the direction of our progress. From there, there are rolling hills ahead.

The woman with the short hair showed no signs of driving fatigue as she pointed to a slightly elevated cliff-like area about a kilometer ahead on the right side of the road.

“I don’t see any enemy, but it looks like a man-made structure on top of that cliff. I think we should do a little aerial reconnaissance.”

“If it is man-made, what would you expect it to be?”

“A watchtower or a fortress for a longbow assault.”

If two of the winged tribe get hurt now, we won’t be able to move around. Let’s ask them to keep an eye on the perimeter while I scout the area.

“…Could it be that Your Majesty the Demon King and the Queen will be heading there?”

“Well, it’s just for a little refreshment. Besides, if there is anyone who is hostile to our demon king’s army, we must greet them, mustn’t we?”

I turned around at the sound of Nojaloli-sensei’s happy voice, and she was already excited and full of motivation.

Hey, I thought you were the one who was supposed to watch our backs.

“Please, Luvia-san and Owe-san, take your meals. After that, please take vigilance of this place. We’ll take a look around.”
