Organ rental company in another world
45. Hao Chi!
The restaurant is very spacious, and even with an absurd number of diners, it doesn't feel crowded at all.
The tavern has two floors. In the middle of the first floor, there is a birchwood platform where a long-haired bard plays the harp and sings.
A group of drunken patrons surrounded the table, sometimes singing along and sometimes shouting, making up half of the noisiest part of the restaurant; the other group consisted of customers who were seriously eating.
Several waiters in special uniforms were moving between the tables; without exception, they were all demi-humans.
The shop was filled with the aroma of fine wine and the sizzling fragrance of oil, creating a wonderful synergy. After taking a few sniffs, Norn suddenly felt hungry.
He found a table near the bar and sat down. A yellow and white catgirl waitress quickly moved closer to him.
She wore a well-tailored dark brown vest, and a silver plaque hung on her slightly bulging chest, engraved with: Introductory Seat • Samissa.
"Dear guest, what would you like to order?"
"What good food do you have here?"
Then a string of dish names flowed from her mouth:
"Our signature combination is grilled beef short ribs with secret sauce, lemon mixed salad, and a large glass of Dussé on the ice. In addition, we have grilled lizard tail, rose-flavored raw sliced meat, stone-grilled sausage, and a whole feast of stir-fried meat."
The drinks include mead, ice plant liqueur, and a special "drowsy" cocktail...
Norn's mouth watered at the thought, and he said, "Give me one of their signature combos, and a stone-grilled sausage, and a jug of mead. I'll take all of these with me."
Catwoman, holding the order board, suddenly slowed down her pace of memorizing the dishes.
Her pinpoint pupils quickly scanned Norn's attire, and she said with some difficulty, "Sir, this must have cost a lot of money."
Norn realized what the catwoman meant and looked down at his clothes in confusion.
Before leaving Rotten River, Norn bought an outfit at a clothing store, but because there were few wealthy people in Rotten River, the clothes were all rather simple in style.
Although Norn doesn't look like a beggar, he certainly doesn't look like a rich person who can afford so much meat.
Norn took out his money pouch and opened it towards Catwoman.
Upon seeing the gleaming gold coins inside, her apprehension vanished instantly, and she quickly jotted down the menu: "Please wait a moment, sir!"
She then ran to the wooden shelf behind the bar, unscrewed the stopper of a wooden barrel, and the pale purple liquid flowed out, filling a wooden glass.
A fat, orange cat-like creature reached out, and bursts of cold air emanated from its palm, blowing towards the wooden cup. Finally, a large cup of frost-covered Dussé was served on Norn's table.
After a while, Norn brought out the other dishes.
A beef rib rests on a plate, garnished with a few cauliflower florets, and covered with a thick, amber-colored sauce, with a gleaming dagger stuck in it.
The mead and the stone-grilled sausage wrapped in leaves were tied together for Norn's convenience.
Norn cut off a piece of meat, put it in his mouth, and chewed it gently.
The rich aroma of meat, accompanied by the scent of spices, exploded in his mouth like a bomb, instantly transforming into a delicious essence that forced its way into Norn's esophagus and savagely invaded his stomach.
"Holy crap! That's fucking holy crap!"
Norn kept cutting and chewing the meat without stopping for a moment. Just when the greasiness started to show, he would take a big sip of chilled Dussé wine. He wouldn't let go even if you slapped him ten times!
The only downside was that the Dussé was a bit too strong for him; after a few sips, Norn felt like his stomach was on fire.
So he unscrewed the bottle of mead, and Norn liked its sweet taste very much.
"Boss, you're on a really good winning streak today! I think Beren's about to cry from losing!"
"Of course, that penniless bastard Beren doesn't even deserve to play with me. This little bit of money isn't even enough for me to go to Nightingale Tower and have a good time, yet he's crying."
"I knew following Young Master Hoppis had its perks! He always thinks of us in everything he does! He's even treating us to dinner today. I'll be Young Master Hoppis's dog for life!"
"Hahaha! This isn't over yet. After we finish eating, I'll take you to Nightingale Tower for some fun!"
Three men walked into the store with beaming faces. The one in the lead, named Hopis, walked ahead with a bulging money bag in his hand and chose a table next to Norn.
Hopis generously ordered several dishes, then inadvertently glanced at the mead on Norn's table.
Do you know which two types of people in the world like to drink mead?
"Who is it, boss?"
"It's that sissy who's still breastfeeding and the guy next to us!"
Hopis finished speaking and burst into laughter, and his two henchmen joined in the mockery.
Norn was so engrossed in the delicious food that he paid no attention to what they were saying.
Seeing Norn's ravenous, savage eating, and considering his drab clothes, Hopius muttered, "That stinking outsider, here to beg in Rose Town."
After a while, Norn wiped the sauce off his mouth and leaned back in his chair, satisfied.
The portions at this restaurant are very generous; after eating that beef rib, Norn felt like he wouldn't need to eat for three days.
"Guest, have you finished eating?"
"Okay, let's check out." Norn said, opening his purse to get the money.
"That's 82 silver coins in total."
Norn took out a gold coin and handed it over, saying, "Keep the change, the extra is yours."
"Thank you! Welcome to visit again!" The catwoman thanked her happily, turned and left, her yellow tail wagging excitedly.
Hopis's eyes widened at the sight, and he stopped cutting the meat.
What shocked him was not that Norn didn't ask the waiter for change, but his huge bag full of coins.
When Norn took the money, he saw that there wasn't a single silver coin in it, only gleaming gold coins!
This money was a huge sum of money to him, the son of the Duke's personal guard captain. He never expected that this outsider would be so rich!
Hopiston suddenly felt that the 2 gold coins he had just won weren't so appealing anymore.
He kicked his two henchmen, who were also wolfing down their food, and said, "You two, do as I say."
Norn paused for a moment, then prepared to get up and leave, just as Hopis walked towards him, holding a glass of wine.
As he passed Norn, he tripped over thin air and fell headfirst toward Norn, spilling his drink all over him.
"Oh dear! I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going. Let me wipe it for you!"
Hopis took out a handkerchief, squatted down and dried Norn's clothes, while giving winks to the two people behind Norn.
"Hey, how did you get here?" Norn complained, unaware of anything amiss.
One of his two henchmen stole the money pouch that Norn was hanging on his waist, while the other took the bag full of broken bones and hung it back on to cover up the strange feeling of missing weight.
Just as the two were about to succeed, Norn suddenly grabbed the person holding his money bag.
"Huh? You guys are in cahoots?" Norn asked.
The captured henchman tried desperately to break free, but found that Norn was incredibly strong, and could only look to Hopius for help.
In a moment of quick thinking, Hopius immediately shouted, "Help! Thief!"
