"Hey, I would like to order again as that group of people suddenly spoiled our food," Levin said to the shop clerk who didn't know what to say before an older lady came out, and the shop clerk bowed down and said.
"Hello, boss." Before stepping aside.
"Take their order and give them everything on the list, even including the drinks.
Whole bottles of the drinks actually and you know what I want to bring me my special one.
For you, let's have a little chat at your family." The lady said while walking at the table where Jaana and Elvire was waiting at Levin.
When they got there, the lady introduced herself.
"My name is Minerva, and I'm the owner of this restaurant, and I would like to firstly thank you for saving my small establishment as it's my late husband's who died not a long time ago."
"It's nothing at all; my husband and daughter were just angry as they suddenly came, and we're rude against us," Jaana said and was paused by Minerva before she could continue.
"I know you want to ask about their identities as even when the city guard came; they didn't do anything at them even when they robbed the customers.
He's a bastard son of the other nations counts family even when he's ripped off from the title and banished no one dares to touch them as we all know that his father helped him secretly establish the merchant company.
So it's more of an open secret here and more likely anywhere near this city.
He only dares to do things close to this city as his father's area is at the border of this city.
So he could anytime if something happens, escape there or use his father's men here as protection and our city Lord doesn't want to start a war with another nation for no reason.
So as long as he doesn't kill anyone or does something scandalous and big, he is free to do anything here with his gang." Minerva explained the whole situation out to them.
"I see we were considering leaving this city anyways to go more to the mainland and search an area where we can settle down for now.
Especially now, it seems we cannot stay here because that person." Levin said while pondering the things.
"If you are going to the mainland stop at Wheatbarrow, it's a village there and stop at the only in there and say I sent you there.
My sister owns that inn you can find a safe place from there if you have a map I will point the village out." Minerva said, and when Levin took the route out, she pointed at the location of the village.
"Thank you, but why you are helping us as isn't this going to get you more trouble, and we even destroyed part of your restaurant," Levin asked from Minerva.
"As I said before, my husband and I built this restaurant together, and now when he's dead, it's my only memory of him left, and I want to keep it up.
That young Lord would have made even worse damage at this building than you did now, so this and the food is my way to thank you.
But I'm asking you to leave immediately when the food and dry food is delivered as I heard you had a spatial bag so you can pack them up and eat later." Minerva said while leaving the table and started to head back to the upstairs.
"We will leave immediately when we can I promise that," Levin shouted at her, and Minerva just smiled them before saying one last time.
"Thank you again and stay safe as they are probably going to do something at you after being humiliated like that." Before she disappeared.
Levin started to plan out their route to the village for now, and he suddenly heard a shout from the kitchen.
"Hey, mister, come with your family here; it's the owner's request." The clerk shouted out and waved at them.
So, Levin, Jaana and Elvire went to the kitchen and saw the massive pile of food there and all of the bottles of different drinks.
"Me and my brother also want to say thank you for protecting our family's restaurant, so here is all of the food and the dry food, of course, it's not free, but you get it cheaper.
It will be two gold coins, sir." The clerk flashed a smile at Levin, who was flabbergasted by the amount of food and the price but happily paid the amount while giving ten gold coins as extra.
"Here is for the property damage and service fee and our way to thank your family for having us here today," Levin said while giving them.
"Mother also said you should leave by the backdoor; it leads to an alley, and if you turn left of it and follow the road straight, you will get out of the city." The clerk said while watching Levin and Jaana packing up the food.
"Thank you for everything, and I hope that they won't do anything for you or this restaurant," Levin said and bowed down while they were ready and leaving through the backdoor.
"Good luck to you and your family, and let me warn you as the city Lord might even turn against you as you are outsiders, so stay safe." The clerk said and closed the door behind them.
