A Highest Rank in Another World!

Chapter 83 - 82 – Decision.

We were surprised by the taste of that mushroom soup.

It was a very strong and well-seasoned taste, but at the same time, it was very pleasant. Also, the mushroom didn't have a bad texture, so we ate the soup rapidly.

In a short time, we had already finished eating it.

"Wow, I didn't think it was that good." Lisandra looked happy to have eaten the mushrooms. For someone who looked disgusted when she first saw it, I think she changed her mind quite radically.

But I can't blame her, we've never eaten mushrooms at our house or in the inn before, nor did we know it could be edible, I have to ask Sara about it later.

'Maybe she can start preparing this at the inn, mushrooms are not hard to find.' It would be nice to be able to eat this almost every day.

And after we finished the soup, there was the rice and beans left and the large piece of meat covered in red sauce inside the plate. A small puddle of sauce was created inside the dish.

"This looks pretty good." Lisandra soon took her fork and knife and began to cut the meat: "It's very tender, I've never seen meat like this." The meat was cut so easily that it didn't even look like wild boar meat.

Lisandra cut a piece and put it in her mouth, her first reaction was to close her eyes as she smiled and enjoyed the taste.

I couldn't contain myself and also cut a piece. When I put it in my mouth, I could feel an explosion of flavors, and the tenderness of the meat was not normal, this is definitely one of the best meats I've ever eaten in my life.

"How do they make meat that good? The chef of this place is to be congratulated." I said as I ate.

"Why don't you try mixing the meat with the rice and beans, it's much better." At Lisandra's suggestion, I cut a piece of meat and put it in my mouth along with the rice that was wet with the bean broth.

And it was wonderful, I never ate such delicious food in my life, all the regret I had because of the amount of money spent disappeared, I continued to eat without caring.

It didn't take long for us to finish eating all the food, there was nothing left.

"Haa~~ I'm satisfied," Lisandra said as she patted her stomach and straightened her posture in the chair.

"I'm also full, now we just need to pay and go home." It was already dark outside, surely it must be late. I'm even starting to get sleepy, having the body of a child is a little complicated.

We waited for the waiter to show up and it didn't take long, we asked for the bill and he brought a small piece of paper with all the items and the price to be paid. The total to be paid was exactly three pieces of silver.

A silver coin for the cheese balls, toast, jelly, and everything else they brought first. Also a silver coin for each plate of food. I had exactly three silver coins and 26 bronze coins, I almost can't pay the bill.

I paid and then we left, now we have no money to buy anything else, and is still a week to the end of the month. We arrived a week before the ceremony and waited another week for classes to start, I think the month is almost over.

But it's better to buy a calendar later or ask Sara to put one in at the inn.

I think the last time I looked at the calendar was on the first day of class, and it was Monday, so today is Wednesday?

And by the calendar, students don't have classes on Saturdays and Sundays, so we have exactly five days of classes a week since the week is 7 days long.

I hate having to deal over time or knowing the days and holidays, but it's kind of necessary.

After a while of walking through the lighted streets and then through the darkest alleys, we arrived at the inn. The inn seemed full tonight, many people were talking and drinking inside it.

Entering, I could see that many adventurers decided to have some kind of party here. They were drinking beer while laughing and screaming, that's annoying.

Sara was struggling to serve drinks for them.

"Oh you arrived, how was the experience?"

"It was amazing, for sure it was the best food I've ever eaten." Without thinking, Lisandra said that excitedly.

"Hump, I'm a little jealous."

"I'm kidding, your food is even better, don't worry." Lisandra had to make up a lie to get rid of it.

Sara just smiled at us and said goodbye, she was quite busy while taking care of all the adventurers that were here. I could only wish her luck as I went to our room.

Some time has passed since then.

It was already the first of February, that is, it had been a month since we arrived in the capital. Considering everything that happened to me, not that much time has passed.

In this past week, I continued going to school and doing my best to keep myself excited during classes, but it was impossible.

All the while I thought about giving up, a week has passed.

A week was already enough for me to start questioning if I should be there. Even though I had promised Lisandra that I would try to stay in school, it wasn't working anymore.

We had another practical class at school using weapons, and again I couldn't fight anyone, we were swinging swords and banging against pieces of wood the whole time.

"That was pissing me off." I was so eager to get my job as an adventurer that I didn't know how to hold back.

And after thinking hard I had decided to become adventurous while still going to school. Of course, I won't tell Lisandra anything about it, I would do it all in secret.

It won't be long before my 14th birthday, and that makes me a little uneasy. I was getting close to adulthood, and I still wasn't strong enough. Coming to the capital, I thought I would raise my level a lot.

For some reason, I thought I would get incredible magic training, or learn sword techniques I'd never seen before, but I didn't learn any of that. Of course, I also thought I could go out and hunt monsters.

Someone told me the region around the capital has a higher concentration of monsters even with all the guards, I thought I could go out and kill them without anyone knowing, but...

I would have to get permission from my guardian to be able to leave, as I am not yet 15 years old. But it was weird because if I had an adventurer's license I could go out whenever I wanted even though I was 13 years old.

Things around here don't make sense.

And as I was tired of being stuck in the city and being stuck in the same routine, I decided to become an adventurer.

I wouldn't have a lot of time to do that, but since I have two days a week that I don't go to school, I think it's okay.

As today was Saturday, I decided to go to the adventurers' guild taking advantage of the fact that I wouldn't have to go to school.

I told Lisandra I was going to meet a colleague so we could talk and walk around town, she seemed to believe that. Anyway, she was also waiting for Ciaphia so they could be together.

So taking advantage of this very convenient situation, I went to the adventurers' guild.

As it was still morning, it was empty and few adventurers were looking for missions. As soon as I got in I started looking for Rose.

"Ah, there you are." She was distracted looking at some papers

"Oh, Noah."

"Hello, this time I came to fulfill what I promised."

"Promised?"

"Didn't I say I would come to become an adventurer? Here I am."

"Then you really are going to do it. Since you took so long, I thought you had given up on the idea, but it looks like you decided to move on."

"I've thought a lot this week, but I think this is the best choice for now."

"I see, I'd like to ask you again to give up, but you're not going to do that, are you?"

"Yes, I will not change my mind. So how do I sign up?"
