Chapter 28 God and Witch
Even though Ms. Fram had taken into account the complexity of sewer purification work, she simplified the process as much as possible for Kalia.

But as a semi-punitive activity, it still kept Kalia busy from noon to late at night.

Her own mental state also changed from being energetic and vigorous like a husky destroying the house to being a roadside dog.

"Ah~~~ Roland, I can't walk anymore... Why am I so tired?"

"You're so tired, aren't I the one carrying you on my back? If anyone's tired, it should be me, right? Damn, why are you so heavy? Did you gain weight these past two days?"

"(Annoyed) Mr. Roland, it's rude to discuss a girl's weight in front of her. Besides, how am I overweight?"

Kalia strangled Roland's neck in dissatisfaction.

"Behave yourself. I'm already being very kind by carrying you on my back."

Roland ignored Kalia's little gesture and asked, "Where are you staying tonight? I'll take you home."

"Where are you staying tonight? Can't I go to your house?"

"?" Roland stopped and asked, "Didn't you have a place to stay last night?"

"Come on, old lady...my teacher scolded me all night yesterday. I didn't sleep at all!"

After hearing this, Roland suddenly admired the witch's extremely strong energy.

He continued to walk forward with Kalia on his back, walking on the quiet street illuminated by streetlights and moonlight.

"You mean, you didn't sleep all night last night and got scolded, then you went to the market early in the morning to buy vegetables and came to my place to cook."

"After successfully using tricks and traps to trick me into joining the sewer purification project, you took on all the work by yourself and have been working on it until now?"

"Hehe, isn't that impressive?"

Kalia, who was lying on Roland's back, proudly leaned forward, as if she really wanted to see the expression on Roland's face at the moment.

Unfortunately, she could only see one side of Roland's cheek.

However, her hair rubbed against Roland's face and neck during this movement, causing an itchy sensation.

"Amazing, awesome! You're really energetic."

Roland expressed his thoughts somewhat perfunctorily, then changed the subject: "So, are you hungry? Although it's late, there are still many shops open in the city."

"Riskane is different from the king. There is no such thing as a curfew."

"There are quite a few workers working the night shift, and some restaurants are happy to do this business. I've eaten at a few of them, and the food is pretty good."

"I just don't know if they'll be open today after such a big incident yesterday."

"Are you serious?!" Kalia perked up at the mention of food. "What's there to eat?"

"What do you want to eat at this hour? Forget desserts or snacks. These are just snacks to go with alcohol and filling meals."

As soon as Roland finished speaking, he felt a lightness on his back.

After jumping off his back, Kalia seemed to have regained all her physical and mental strength.

The tired look on his face disappeared, replaced by seriousness and earnestness: "What are you waiting for? Let's go!"

"At night, you have to eat something that fills your stomach!"

Roland rolled his eyes at the energetic Kalia. "You were just pretending to be tired, weren't you? Trying to trick me into carrying you?"

"Ahahaha... How could that be? Of course I'm tired, but I just perked up when I heard there was food."

Kalia turned halfway around, poking her finger subconsciously, her eyes wandering.

Roland no longer wanted to say anything about this.

"Okay, okay, which way are you going? At the end of the street, turn right and there's an alley. The pub inside has good fried oysters and seafood noodles."

"Great!"

……

"jingle"

Roland pushed the door open and walked into the tavern with Kalia.

What surprised Roland was that the tavern, which should have been crowded at this time of year, was now completely empty.

Only the boss sat behind the bar, reading a newspaper. "Uncle Jules, same old thing. Oh, can you give me an extra set meal today?"

Upon hearing this, the boss named Jules put down the newspaper and stood up with a beer belly.

He is actually not fat, and his limbs and face are well-proportioned.

Only his belly is particularly noticeable on his body. If he even finds a looser coat to cover it, he can be considered a handsome middle-aged uncle.

"Ah, you kid, you actually brought some friends over to help take care of business today?"

When the boss Jules spoke, he deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "friends" and his tone was somewhat sarcastic.

Roland didn't answer, but asked, "Why is the tavern so quiet today? Is no one here?"

"Have you forgotten what happened yesterday? The chaos in the city isn't over yet. Although life in the city isn't affected, the port is still blocked."

Jules sighed: "There is no work to do. I don't have much business here, do I?"

"But if you come earlier, there are still a few tables of guests drinking here."

"Also, this girl..."

"Just ordinary friends, don't think too much about it."

Roland quickly interrupted Jules' question and urged, "Hurry up and serve the food, Uncle Jules. We are both very hungry."

"Alright, alright."

Seeing that he couldn't get to the bottom of the matter, Jules went to the kitchen to cook.

Roland glanced at Kalia beside him, who seemed quite excited.

"You look happy?"

"Yes, this is my first time in a tavern!" Kalia looked around curiously, as if everything was new to her.

Then she looked at Roland: "You seem to come here often. Are you here for a drink?"

"No, I'm just here to gather information." Roland shook his head. "But I occasionally drink some low-alcohol beer."

“There are a lot of people moving around in the pub. Sometimes you don’t need to do anything, just sit here and drink and you can hear some interesting news.”

"Aren't you going to drink in the tavern?" Kalia was a little surprised.

"Drinking will interfere with my concentration and affect my ability to make the right decisions. Even if I drink, I will control myself from getting drunk."

After saying that, Roland added, "Even being slightly tipsy isn't okay."

As the two were talking, two servings of freshly fried oysters were placed in front of them.

There was no special presentation to speak of. A few fried oysters were placed haphazardly on the plate, with a slice of lime and some Thousand Island dressing on the side. If you feel greasy, you can eat them with them to relieve the greasiness.

Very typical Redscan cuisine.

"The noodles will take a while, you two can eat first." After serving the dishes, Yule turned around and went back to the kitchen.

"Wow! It looks delicious!"

When Kalia saw the delicious food on the table, she couldn't help herself and immediately picked up a fork, picked up a piece of fried oyster and put it into her mouth.

Then, as expected, he jumped up and down because of the burn.

Roland couldn't help but cover his face. He dared to eat the fried food right out of the pan like this. Should he say that this guy is worthy of being called this?
"Leave it alone for a while, it won't be good if you burn your tongue."

"Wuwuwu... Nishuo's fetal bay!"

"..."

Roland suddenly no longer looked forward to his future campus life.

When he thought about having to take care of this genius in the academy, he felt that the future was bleak.

Did this guy put all the points into appearance and spellcasting talent?
