[BONUS]
Dinner was shortly wrapped up. They gave the impression to be actually hungry. Only some minutes had handed, however all of the meals ready was all wolfed up. Even the ladies misplaced their poise.
It was fairly scary, really. I even shrunk into my seat as a result of I felt like I used to be surrounded by hungry wolves munching on flesh and gnawing on bones.
I attempted to eat the small items of hen and fish I managed to placed on my plate as fastidiously as I might in order to not be a focus for my wild company.
“Rattling! When was the final time I tasted hen and fish meat?!” Edgar yelled together with his mouth full. “This stuff are so scrumptious!”
“Hey, that is mine!” Sheryl growled and snatched the final piece of hen leg from Edgar’s hand.
“What do you imply yours?! I received this primary!”
“You have already eaten a complete hen! How shameless are you able to be?!”
“Sufficient, you two.” Emi wiped her mouth earlier than she stared at me and smiled her brightest, however I solely felt that one thing was off together with her.
“I am positive Cross has some chickens left, proper? I believe I noticed a barn exterior.”
“Hey, that is proper!” Edgar’s eyes shone. “So you have got extra chickens? In the event you’re elevating them, then are you able to butcher one other one?”
“Egh? Actually?” Sheryl then flung her consideration at me and clasped her palms in prayer. “Can I’ve one too? I am actually ravenous. Fairly please~.”
“Everybody, it is impolite to ask our Host for extra. On this time of–”
“Oh, shut up,” Emi reduce him. “Cease being a hypocrite. Everyone knows that you really want extra meals as effectively. Even Ford is silent on the aspect and never complaining.”
“Egh?” Ford checked out Brago and the others earlier than he stared on the empty plates in longing. “W-well . . . I’m nonetheless form of hungry.”
Brago cleared his throat whereas his face crumpled.
Then all eyes went to Megu and her youngster. The latter smiled and mentioned with a timid voice, “The fish soup is absolutely good. I do not thoughts one other serving.”
“. . . I-I see . . . then we’ll cook dinner one other,” I mentioned, they usually all cheered and fortunately chatted with one another.
<First, it is meals. Then earlier than you realize it, they will be the grasp of this home.>
Shut up.
“My Lord,” Florin mentioned together with her standard disturbing smile. “We solely have two grownup chickens left. If we butcher one, then the eggs we’ll get within the morning can be much less.”
I get what she was saying. Egg dishes had been our spotlight for breakfast. It was our staple menu within the morning. We should have eggs in any respect prices.
Within the first place, I solely outfitted the property for 2 folks to final for seven days. These seven chicks we had weren’t mature sufficient to put eggs. And the one we butchered now was imagined to be only a welcoming reward for the company.
“In the event you’re speaking about grownup chickens, then there are clearly chicks, proper?” Emi mentioned and added. “You’ll be able to simply butcher one and let the opposite lay. The chicks would mature quickly sufficient.
All of them nodded in settlement, and I additionally nodded in settlement.
<That is referred to as peer strain, Host>
Florin solely took a breath whereas her smile by no means left her face. She was enjoying together with her meals as she mentioned, “And we solely have two fish meat left.”
“It is tremendous,” I mentioned. “It will rot in two days anyway. We would as effectively cook dinner it now. In addition to, I can simply catch one other fish within the river and we now have a number of dried fish for the meantime.”
Florin’s smile wavered. “However the blood rain.”
“It is tremendous.” I reduce her once more. “I would be tremendous so long as I do not keep exterior lengthy within the rain. And we now have medicines right here too.”
The others smiled their brightest, however Florin solely shot me a glance earlier than beaming.
“As you would like, my lord.” Florin then regarded over on the others with a smile. “Excuse me whereas I put together one other spherical of serving.”
When Florin left, I felt the ambiance lightened. I did not need to say that her presence was heavy, however that was precisely what the others felt round her.
All of us chatted at first whereas ready for Florin to return. We did not run out of subjects, particularly about what we missed on earth — the meals, the flicks, our household, how simple it was to seek out shelter, and naturally, the expertise and the way handy it was, dwelling again on earth.
I advised them about my job as effectively. It wasn’t actually an enormous deal since, at this level, standing wasn’t essential. Right here, we had been again from sq. one.
Even in the event you had been the daughter of a president or the richest individual again on earth, on this world, you had been nothing however a participant like us with nothing in your title.
Sheryl flipped her hair and mentioned with a proud voice, “It would come off as a shock, however I am a pupil at Destiny Academy. Ever heard about it? It is the very best faculty on the planet.”
Emi rolled her eyes. “We’re extra stunned that you simply’re already in school. We thought that you simply had been nonetheless in highschool based mostly out of your infantile behaviour.”
“What did you say?!”
Emi raised her head excessive with a proud smirk on her face. “I used to be an actual property dealer again on earth, and I earned six digits each month.”
Sheryl scoffed. “Oh actually? I believed that you simply had been a professor or lawyer, given the way you acted like you realize all of it.”
Emi glared at Sheryl, and the latter glared again. There was static between them, however the chatter carried on.
“I am knowledgeable gangster again within the days,” mentioned Edgar.
Nobody paid him any thoughts.
“I used to be a kindergarten instructor,” Megu mentioned as she performed together with her youngster.
We guys beamed like flowers had been blooming in entrance of our faces. Megu’s voice was so nice, like a lullaby.
A kindergarten instructor suited her simply tremendous.
Brago crossed his palms and mentioned subsequent, “I used to be a safety guard.”
Very becoming.
Ford rubbed the again of his neck and mentioned, “I used to be a . . . insurance coverage salesman.”
Our subject modified once more from our earlier life when Emi requested.
“What’s that white-looking factor over there?”
I briefly regarded over at the place she was pointing and answered her, “That is a salt cave. Since fridges do not exist right here, I’ve to discover a option to protect meals, even only for just a few days.”
Sheryl clasped her palms. “That is superb.”
“Because the ocean is close by, you need to do a minimum of that a lot,” mentioned Emi.
“If you realize it, then why did not you do it within the first place?” retorted Sheryl.
