chapter 19
19 – Satisfy the noble lineage!
“Ho, I’ll walk alone…”
“Yes. Instead, don’t follow me from behind.”
“Okay.”
Ael walked beside Einer and worried that the wind would blow towards Einer and spread the smell of sweat.
However, there was no smell of sweat from Ael, and fortunately, the weather in Daham was on Ael’s side today.
The pier under the hill was lively as usual, even though it was a weekend, with mild weather without a single wind.
Merchant ships engaged in maritime trade do not choose weekends or weekdays for sailing.
“Captain! Where are you going?”
The security guards on weekend patrol recognized Einer and greeted him.
“I’m going to eat.”
“By the way, who is the beautiful woman next to you? Your girlfriend?”
“Uh huh.”
Einer, who was too lazy to explain the situation one by one as a slave, walked past them, answering casually.
“What?! A girlfriend?!”
As her men looked on in amazement, Ael shouted in greeting, bowing her head so that her hurried forehead touched her ground.
“Hey, I’m not your girlfriend, I’m Ael, the slave of the owner of Einer!”
“Aha. That naughty demon slave? It’s so pretty.”
“Hick!”
After hearing the praise, Ael covered her ears with both of her hands as if she had heard Canto Vera’s song.
I’m sure the owner told me to be careful of people who say I’m pretty!
“Come with me, master!”
Ael, who had lost her balance as she covered her ears with her hands, waddled behind Einer.
Because of his fluttering clothes that didn’t fit his body and his chest that swayed magnificently up and down, Ael looked stupid and blind to the world.
That’s why it’s supposed to be prettier.
Ainer took Ael to Daham’s famous restaurant, Embrace the Sea.
This is where Einer and his crew often stop by to eat, and the outdoor tables overlooking the sea are always crowded with people.
Fortunately, it was still before lunchtime today, so it wasn’t as crowded as during mealtime, so Ael and Einer were able to occupy a table outside and sit down.
“Look closely, Ael. This is the best restaurant in Daham.”
“Hey, I see!”
Ael is fierce and sharp by herself, but when others see her, she was just holding back from wanting to go to the bathroom, so she looked at her surroundings with closed eyes.
The building with a dome-shaped blue roof in contrast to the white walls gave off a cool impression worthy of the name of the hug of the sea.
An open structure where all the walls are demolished and the pillars supporting the ceiling are arched between the pillars.
Customers and staff came and went freely under it, and you could see at a glance that they were cooking in the fully exposed kitchen.
It was suitable for Daham’s climate, which is mild throughout the year and the weather does not change rapidly.
“But what if there is a thief at night when there are no walls like that?”
“There is a shutter on the side leading to the kitchen. I closed it and put a padlock on it.”
“I see… It’s really amazing.”
“Most other restaurants are like that. But this place is famous not only for its taste but also for its location.”
As Einer said, the embrace of the sea was located at the edge of the coastal cliff, slightly away from the harbor, so there was nothing to block the scenery.
A rather messy-looking pier is at the far end, and the place where the outdoor tables are facing is the horizon of the Southern Ocean with pure white cumulonimbus clouds floating around.
A flock of shining seagulls flies over the long foam created by the passage of a huge galleon.
“It’s so pretty.”
“Isn’t it? Restaurants are important, of course, but taste is also important, but it’s hard to compete only on taste here. There are many delicious restaurants. Whether it’s in such a good location or has other characteristics, you can survive.”
“Master, you are right.”
With that said, Ael wondered what he could put forward if he opened a restaurant with the owner soon.
The master’s house is also on a high hill, so it’s not too bad compared to here in terms of location.
Although it’s not a full ocean view like here and you can see the city below, it’s so much prettier at night.
Besides, you can see the uninhabited island shining blue.
And what else?
Ah, if Cantobera recovers later, I can sing her a beautiful song.
A restaurant where you can dine while listening to Canto Vera’s songs while the night view of the sea and the city shines.
I think it’s fine.
But there is a problem.
Obviously I have to cook and serve guests, but will the customers really like such a chef?
You might think it’s unhygienic because you’re sweating profusely just because you’ve gained weight.
If you go to serve, you’ll frown and cover your nose, saying that you smell like sweat.
Maybe I guessed that I was sweating while cooking, so I could get angry.
Also, your voice is small and you stutter when you’re nervous.
In addition, there is a lot of gluttony, so if you secretly pick up food and get caught saying you only want to taste it….
Maybe it would be more comfortable to live without a restaurant and just do housework as the master’s slave.
Ael, who had an idea, opened her mouth stuttering.
“Ah, I guess running a restaurant is a bit…”
“Do you want to try this?”
However, Einer didn’t listen to Ael and pointed at the menu.
“Eh? Oh, the owner recommends it. I don’t know…”
“Then I’ll take care of it.”
Einer called the waiter and ordered various items from the menu.
Ael, who was watching that scene, asked Einer when the waitress left.
“By the way, master. Do you have a girlfriend?”
“Girlfriend? Why?”
“I wonder if I shouldn’t be at home if I have a girlfriend…”
“No.”
“Ah, that’s right… Then, by chance, among the members of her crew, that yellow-haired person…”
“Kira?”
Einer laughed incredulously.
“Are you crazy? I’d rather go out with a sea cucumber.”
“Eek?! Do you like sea cucumber?!”
You like sea cucumber?!
That thick and bumpy thing?!
Ael unconsciously fumbled with her buttock.
“I’m sorry, master! I’ll try, but it’s not easy to give a texture and tightening similar to sea cucumber…”
“Ouch! Quiet!”
When Ael’s mouth started to sound crazy, Einor shouted and blocked the words.
Ainor apologized as everyone in the restaurant turned around at the sudden high voice.
“Sorry. Have a meal.”
Seeing Ael still twiddling her ass and groin with her babe, you finally burst out laughing at her.
“What the hell are you thinking? Could it be that I’m doing it for sea cucumbers?”
“No…. I’m sorry….”
Ael was sweating profusely as he felt a great deal of mental pressure from people’s eyes.
Einer said while holding a napkin on the table and wiping the sweat from Ael’s chin.
“I don’t know what you think of me, but it’s not like that. As I said before, that’s not why I bought you as a slave.”
“Yes, yes… I understand.”
Looking at Ael bowing her head, you felt her headache come over again.
It’s true that he’s naive, but sometimes he’s quick-tempered like that.
Is it because he is too naive?
Soon, the dishes Einer ordered came out.
Including shrimp salad, the restaurant’s flagship menu, crispy baked biscuits and coffee topped with cream.
“Is it coffee? But cream on top?”
“Don’t you think it suits you? Try drinking it together. It’s delicious.”
Ael took a sip of her cream coffee and admired her cream as if it were her mustache.
“Wow! It’s so delicious!”
“Isn’t it? Instead, don’t eat too much. You’ll have to look elsewhere.”
Einer smiled softly as he wiped the cream from under Ael’s nose.
* * * * *
You took Ael all day and all over Daham.
In order to conduct market research and inform the surrounding geography.
And since she ate so much whenever Ael visited her restaurant, walking to help her digest was one of her main reasons.
What the hell happened to this guy, he goes in endlessly no matter what he eats?
But it’s not like I’m overweight.
Thinking about it, it seems that none of the demons Einer killed were overweight.
If that’s the case, demons, regardless of gender, eat a lot and don’t gain weight.
I envy you.
It was only after the sun had completely set that Einor returned home.
Ael seemed to have some basic stamina, although her body was wet with sweat, she didn’t look too hard.
“Since we finished dinner, let’s wash up right away.”
“Yes, master. But I’m sorry…”
Ael hesitated as she looked down at her bare breasts as her wet clothes clung to her sweat.
“Yes, yes. You wash first.”
“Hey, thank you.”
Dodo also shook her head as she saw Ael running to her back door.
It’s true that he’s a purebred, but he’s a peculiar purebred that sometimes embarrasses people.
* * * * *
Ael threw off her wet clothes and went into her bathtub.
The water in the bathtub gets lukewarm from sunlight during the day, so it’s the perfect temperature for a bath.
“hahahaha, good.”
Ael let out a deep moan as he splashed water on his body, which was glistening with sweat.
Suddenly, she remembered what the owner had said about sea cucumbers.
Hmm, sea cucumber….
Ael’s eyes turned to her back door.
The owner is a gentle man, so there’s no way that door will be opened right away.
Then….
Ael fumbled with some parts of her own body.
“Ummm…”
There is no special feeling, it’s just plain….
As expected, I’m not good at anything….
To be outdone even by sea cucumbers….
It was Ael who became sullen.
