Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Once the food arrived, we lifted our drinks and said, "Cheers!"

With that, Rondo gave a large chug that finished off the large mug that had been brought to him.

This was a mug that was twice the size of the mug that I had and he had already finished it in one gulp.

It could be seen that dwarves really could drink…

On the other hand, I just took a small sip before putting down the mug in my hand.

Once he finished chugging, he gave a loud satisfied sound before saying, "That really is some good beer! Get me another one!"

The waiter acknowledged this and took the mug he placed on the table away.

After taking that first drink, we started digging into the dishes that we had ordered.

I had to admit that Haley really knew what she was doing.

Every single dish that we had was delicious and went perfectly with the beer that we ordered. This place really understood what it meant to open a bar, combining both alcohol and food perfectly.

So this created a happy mood between us while we were eating.

Halfway through, when a hint of red appeared on Rondo's cheeks, that was when Haley and I made our move.

I just calmly said, "Rondo, we need to discuss something."

Rondo had been happily eating and drinking when I said this, but then seeing the serious look on my face, he calmed down. He looked back at me with a serious look and waited for me to speak.

"Do you remember before the competition, we agreed on terms for the outcome of the duel?" I slowly asked.

Rondo just gave a slight nod before revealing a bit of a confused look.

I then said, "I want to talk about how to contact your family to arrange buying the mithril."

Haley nervously waited on the side for his answer because this would determine the future of her business.

Rondo revealed a bit of a surprised look before suddenly saying with a smile, "Is that it? Is that all you had to ask about?"

This time, it was Haley and my turn to be surprised.

We thought that this would be a hard matter to approach with Rondo, but we never thought that he would be so carefree about it.

Rondo just said with a smile, "I'll tell my family about this matter and they'll send someone to take care of it."

Both of us couldn't help revealing surprised looks at how casual he was about this.

We had both thought that it would be hard for us to arrange a trade with them since the dwarves isolated themselves from the humans. As such, it would take a lot of effort for us to even set this up.

However, it was settled with just a single word from Rondo.

While we were still dazed, after thinking about it for a bit, Rondo suddenly added, "Though if you want, it would be easier if you just came back to see my family with me. If we're all there, we can discuss the terms much easier."

"Huh?" Both Haley and I reacted the same way before looking at each other.

As we looked at each other, we couldn't help wondering why the other person was as surprised as they were.

But then we both quickly turned back to Rondo and I asked, "Is it really alright for us to come back with you to the Dwarven Kingdom?"

Rondo gave a frank nod and said with a wide smile, "It's not a problem. As long as you're with me, you can go in without any problems."

Both of us once again looked at each other with looks of shock and disbelief, but in the end, I still said, "Alright, we'll settle it like this. We'll go with you to the Dwarven Kingdom and settle this matter there."

Rondo gave a simple nod before saying, "Let's order some more!"

I gave a nod before turning to Haley.

Haley didn't hesitate at all to order the best wine from the bar which immediately made Rondo's eyes light up.

Dwarves lived for forging and alcohol, that was a fact that was widespread and something that everyone knew.

So the best way to befriend a dwarf was naturally with alcohol.

While Rondo was having fun drinking, Haley and I had a secret conversation.

Haley started by asking, "Why were you so surprised? Also how do you know so much about the dwarves?"

I had a calm look on my face as I said, "What about you? Weren't you the same?"

Haley didn't bother playing games and just explained, "It's a common fact that the Dwarven Kingdom is not a place that can be easily entered. But you…you clearly looked like you knew something else."

I trembled when I heard this.

That was right, I did know something else.

I had my knowledge from when this world was a game after all, so I knew a bit more than her.

The Dwarven Kingdom was hard to enter, but it wasn't impossible to enter.

As long as one went through one of the official or unofficial passages, they would be able to enter the Dwarven Kingdom.

However, being able to enter just with the word of a dwarf was not something that I had heard before.

The reason I was surprised was that I was certain that this was some kind of special secret method that I hadn't known about.

As a gamer who had thought that he had accomplished everything that could have been achieved in the game, it hurt my pride to find out that there was something that I had missed.

But it was getting more and more common to discover these things now that this game had become a real world.

In the end, I just calmly said, "I was surprised for the same reason as you. Nothing more, nothing less."

Haley narrowed her eyes to look at me as if she didn't believe me, but I didn't let anything show on my face.

In the end, she said with a sigh, "Alright, don't tell me. But I'll be sure to punish you later."
