Luciel was really surprised to learn that two dangerous zones were so close to where he currently was.
"What luck is mine." - Luciel said, while someone knocked on the door, when he opened the door, the first thing Luciel saw was green hair, and then he saw Fred's face.
"Luciel, dinner is ready."
"It is understood." - said Luciel, who kept his money and the black book in the chest and only took with him the three keys that he put in his pockets.
As he closed the door, Luciel watched as Fred notified the other guests who were here that dinner was ready, and once Fred finished, he saw Luciel.
"Any problem?" Asked Fred.
"Where is the dining room?" - Luciel would ask who did not know where to go.
"Ah, right, I haven't told you yet, come on, I'll take you there." - Fred said as he was going down the stairs to the first floor.
...
In the inn's dining room, many of the guests, as well as other people who only came for food, were already eating, while a boy somewhat younger than Fred helped serve plates of food and glasses with drinks to the different customers. .
"Here you can sit." - Fred said as he showed Luciel an empty table.
"Thank you."
"Now I'll bring your food, what do you want to drink?"
"What's wrong?"
"Well, we have beer, but I think it is clear that you are not old enough to drink that, so we have water and Juice of Eden."
"Juice of Eden?"
"Yes, it is a juice prepared with the fruits of Eden, we also had Mateso Juice, but it just finished recently."
"Hm ... then a Juice of Eden." - Luciel said, who, although he didn't know it was a fruit of Eden or what it tasted like, he had more of a craving to try a juice than to ask for water that will most likely taste the same as the drinking water of his world.
"It is understood." - said Fred. - "Now I come." - leaving for Luciel's food, who finally sat down and watched the other people in the place, seeing how the place was almost completely filled by men and women who showed a huge smile for every bite they savored.
"Apparently the food in this place must be very good, although well, that's what Glover told me, so it must be really good." Luciel thought as he continued to watch people eat.
"Here is your food." - said Fred, as he left on the table a soup, a plate with a piece of meat bathed in some kind of sauce and a bread, accompanied along with the glass with Juice of Eden. - "Here, a Yola Soup along with a Charoly Meat Plate covered by the chef's secret sauce, a white bread and the Eden Juice you ordered."
"..." - Luciel looked at the food, and after spending a few hours since he arrived at this world, he was clearly very hungry.
"Enjoy the food."
"Thank you."
"No problem, if you want one more order of food, it will cost you fifty Jules, understood?"
"I get it."
"Still, mom said it was okay to give you one more free glass of juice, so if you want me to refill your glass, let me or my brother Eren know." - Fred said as he pointed to the boy younger than Fred with the same green hair, but with blue eyes.
"Okay."
"Well, I have to go attend to the other clients who have just arrived, yes, if you'll excuse me." - Fred said as he went to attend the other customers.
"Thank you." - Luciel thanked once again as he saw Fred go to a table where a group of people had just sat down.
Then, Luciel stared at the food in front of him, and in his mind he prayed that it didn't taste weird or bad, and being a meat lover, clearly that would be the first thing he would try.
"Charoly meat, what kind of animal is it?" Luciel wondered as he took his first taste of the food from the Great World of Gea.
"…" When eating the piece of meat covered by the chef's sauce, Luciel was surprised by the taste and texture, it was so smooth and rich, it was so…
"Tasty, right?" - Before the sudden voice that Luciel heard in front of him, Luciel almost spit out the food, but managed to calm down and see who it was, and when he looked up he saw the Vice-Captain of the Guards of the Town of Hope.
"Mr. Glover, what are you doing here?" - Luciel asked surprised.
"Well, my shift is over, and the food they prepare here is the best there is in the whole town, even a little better than the restaurants in town have, therefore, it is one of the favorite places of the people of the town to come to eat sometimes, after all, as I told you, if you like food, there is no better inn in town than this place. "
"I see."
"And if I'm honest, the food that Chef Ron cooks is a thousand times better than the food that my wife prepares, so if I have the opportunity, I'd rather come here for dinner."
"Chef Ron?"
"Yes, the chef of this place is also the husband of the owner."
"I see."
"By the way, if you ever meet my wife, please don't say that I think the food she prepares is a thousand times worse than what she cooks for Ron. "
"Clear."
"No, really, never tell her, I can't help but think or feel chills about what would happen to me if she found out what I said."
"AHA."
"Thank you Luciel." - Glover said with a sigh, very relieved, there were few things that Glover was afraid of in the world, and one of those things was seeing his wife angry, especially if the source of his anger was him.
"By the way, can I sit here?" Glover asked as he pointed to the chair in front of Luciel.
"Of course." - said Luciel who was still eating.
"Ah, thank you, this place always fills up very quickly when it is time to eat, so sometimes when I come I do not find a place available and I have to go home sadly for dinner." - Glover said who sat down and gestured for Fred to come.
"By the way, Evans and Kyle are coming here too." - Upon hearing that, Luciel's face turned somewhat pale and he began to sweat a little.
"Ha, don't worry, I know what happened with Evans must have traumatized you a bit, but believe me when he told you that Evans is a good boy, he can be stubborn and a little clumsy at times, but he is a kind person with a big heart. . " - Glover said.
"AHA." - Luciel said incredulously.
"Is seriously."
"..."
"Ah ..." - Glover scratched his forehead as he thought about asking Evans to apologize to Luciel.
Glover had asked Fred for three food orders, one was clearly for him, and the other two were for Evans and Kyle who were on their way, meanwhile, Luciel was eating more quickly than before, seeing Luciel's behavior, Glover He couldn't help but feel something bad about what had happened in the Dark Room, so he decided to talk to Luciel so that he would stop thinking about it.
"Tell me Luciel, what are you planning to do?"
"Eh?"
"Yes, you know, you are an inhabitant of Another World, there are several things that you do not know about the Great World of Gea, and now that you are here, you will have to start living your life, so how do you plan to live? What do you plan to do?"
"Hm ... I really don't know, I've learned a few things from the Black Book, but ..."
"Hey? What black book? "
"The one I carried with me all this time."
"Luciel, as I remember, I don't remember seeing you with a book, if I or Evans had seen it, we would have confiscated it."
"Ah, now that you mention it, it's true." - Luciel said who remembered that neither of them took away or mentioned anything about the Black Book in the Dark Room.
"Are you sure you haven't imagined it?"
"Hahaha, I don't know." - Luciel said. - "Although, to be honest, I don't know what to do, after all it is the first time I have found myself alone, I have never experienced something like this, especially with something as massive as it is in finding myself alone in another world."
Saying that, Luciel remembered his family again, becoming somewhat sad, but again praying to the Gods for his family to be well.
"Needless to say, I really can't imagine being your age and appearing in another world, I don't know what circumstances led to that, but it is clear that it is a very difficult situation for you."
"Yes." - Luciel said, still sad not only for his family, but for remembering that the Earth no longer exists, his world of origin is destroyed, and he will never be able to return.
"If you weren't so young, you could try becoming an Adventurer."
"Adventurer?"
"Yes, people who belong to the Adventurer's Guild, carry out missions and requests in exchange for money, they carry out missions from things as simple as looking for herbs, cleaning a place or place and taking care of a pet, to things of high difficulty such as escort people or hunt down a specific monster. "
"..."
"Yes, there is a high variety of missions that they can carry out, in addition to a great demand, the only thing that prevents them from performing certain missions is the rank they possess, but as I told you, you are too young to think about being an adventurer. "
"How old do you need?"
"Being an adult, so the minimum age to be an adventurer is fifteen years old."
"I see, even so, even though I was of age, I don't think I could be an adventurer, after all, I am not very brave, and I have never faced any person, less still a monster that could kill me, I am a person cowardly and peaceful. "
"And weak."
"Hey?"
"Yes, now that I realize it, I hardly feel a hint of World Energy in you."
"Really?"
"Yes, although maybe that's because you come from another world, maybe the more time you spend here, and if you are lucky enough to get a Cultivation Method, you can at least become a Village Novice." - Glover said.
Luciel continued eating, until Glover continued what they were talking about.
"Still, what are you planning to do?"
"I don't know, the best thing would be to be able to get a job somewhere, not just for the money but to get the ID card, but to be honest, I never in my life thought I'd work from so young.
"Hm, wasn't it like that in your world?"
"No, of course not, I'm just a brat, and now ... now I have than looking for a job. "
"Yes, that would be the best, although, by the way, now that I've been remembering, I came to tell you something else."
"What?"
"Other people like you have come to town."
"Others ... like me ... Really?" - Luciel asked excited to know that there were more people on this place.
"Yes, some of them were much better than you, making up that they lost their ID Cards while traveling due to the attack of thieves and bandits, while others were direct and told me the truth, now that I think about it, the only person that we questioned today was you. "
"To me?"
"Yes, not only because you were the first, but because you don't really know how to handle yourself, your interaction with us was terrible, and your nervousness showed."
"So bad?"
"Yes, today there was a young man who lied so perfectly about being attacked and having his Identification Card stolen that if he had not been the third to say the same thing today, I would seriously believe him." - Glover said.
At that moment, Fred arrived.
"Here is the food." - Said the young man bringing the three orders together with his little brother. - "And as you said, here is your Claris Beer."
"Ah, my favorite, thanks, Fred." - Glover said as he drank a little. - "Also, to you Eren."
"You're welcome." - Fred said that, meanwhile he with his brother he served the food and then left to continue with his work.
"Goodbye Mr. Glover." - Said young Eren who was following his brother.
"Well, eat." - Glover said as he began to eat. Luciel and Glover ate quietly, although Luciel kept thinking about what Glover had said about what he planned to do in the future and about the arrival of others like him.
"Delicious." - Glover said as he drank his Claris beer while eating Charoly meat. Luciel only ate in silence.
Glover sometimes complained and lamented a little when he talked about how badly his wife cooked, Luciel just listened.
"Seriously Luciel, if one day you fall in love, first find out if that person knows how to cook, that is, I love my wife with all my soul, but his cooking is terrible." - Glover said.
At that moment, Glover saw Evans and Kyle finally.
"Guys, here." - Glover said that he got up so that the two guards could see him. - "How late."
"Vice-Captain, it's not my fault, it's just that another one of those people arrived." - Kyle said.
"Another like Luciel?"
"Yes." - Kyle said who sat down.
"Did you hear that Luciel." - Glover said, but Luciel was no longer there. - "Eh?"
"Vice-Captain, did you say Luciel?" Kyle asked.
"Yes, I was eating with him, but now ..." - Glover was surprised to see neither Luciel nor his plate.
He did not know, but Luciel managed to see Evans and Kyle first, and once he looked at Evans, Luciel immediately escaped, handing Fred the dirty dishes, and thanking him again for the food.
"You see Evans, the boy is afraid of you." - Kyle said as he sat down to start eating.
"Hm, I didn't do anything to him that he should be afraid of."
"Oh Evans, seriously, you couldn't be more tolerable, Luciel is still a kid." - Glover said.
"But Vice-Captain, you should know that, when in doubt, we must be serious in our work, imagine that I soften myself up with a brat who later turns out to be the spy for bandits who a day later attack the town and many die, blame it would fall on my hands for not having been harder. "
"Yes Evans, but by God, he is a boy, you shouldn't yell at him so much."
"..." - Without more to say, Evans sat down to start eating, while Glover and Kyle slightly disapproved of Evans' attitude.
