Chapter 441: I Might Had Drank Too Much Rice Wine...
-----
We were served several things I could recognize from Japanese cuisine, some of which had surprised me greatly. First of all there was a lot of freshly fished river fish made into sashimi, it looked tasty. There was also shrimp tempura, which was large river shrimps they caught and deep friend with batter. They were so crunchy and nice…
And to boot, there was also something else that shocked me… there was authentic soy sauce! and even more, wasabi! Indeed. I don't know how they actually fucking did it, but this was authentic soy sauce, and it was amazing! Just like I remember it! Ahh! It goes so well with the tempura and the sashimi!
Actually, there was even more surprises! Yes, there's indeed more… there was also "tempura sauce" which is a sweet sauce of a tasty flavor, which goes amazing with soy sauce too. By pouring the tempura and both of them, you make the perfect fusion between salty and sweet, by the gods!
"Uwahahaha…! Your sect is amazing, Mikohime! I will make sure to bring you a lot of ingredients! So you better keep making amazing food!" I cried out of pure joy. Although everyone was also enjoying the food, they were still not as amazed as I was, and they looked at me with dumbfounded expressions in their faces.
"I-I see that you're enjoying the food, Drake-sama!" said Mikohime.
"Indeed! I am really enjoying it…" I sighed in happiness.
"A-And of course! Leave it to us! We'll make sure to prepare the best food that our sect has to offer for you, Drake-sama." Said Mikohime.
The other elders nodded as well while bowing their heads. Now that I was the boss in here, everyone treated me with a lot of respect, a lot! I think I should tell them to relax, but I kind of like it, and that side of me that likes to be treated like a King can't stop feeling even more feed with ego as they bow their heads before me.
However, I am a man of humbleness above all else, so I humbly told them that…
"I want seconds! Quickly bring more!" I said.
"Y-Yes, immediately!"
"I suppose he really liked it!"
"Indeed!"
The servants, which were wearing Japanese maid costumes, were quick to work at my orders, and brought me a large bowl of rice with katsudon, fried pork (wild boar) cutlet with an egg on top. It was phenomenal and I continued eating them without stopping.
"Fufufu, I see that you love my cuisine! I made sure to engrave into my sect all these Japanese recipes! Now try out the wine! Sake! Bring sake!" said Yukihime, although they didn't heard her.
"Do you got sake?" I asked.
"S-Sake? Ah, yes… But it is the morning, we usually serve it at night, in dinner, Drake-sama." Said Mikohime.
"Well bring me some for me, please." I said.
"O-Of course! You already heard our lord!" said Mikohime, as the servants quickly brought a bottle of fine rice wine, which was as clear as water.
I drank a shot and… it was nice! So spicy, and the flavor of rice was also top notch, strong and it got stuck into your mouth. It went nice with some sashimi… I could drink this all day. I fear that I might become a drunk old lizard one of these days… Well, it doesn't look so bad if I get to enjoy life as it is…
…
Huh?
I suddenly woke up over my bed, Benladann and Miranda were chatting with Yukihime and Mikoto while having some snacks. There were some people walking here and there across the corridors outside, as they were reconstructing the palace slowly- wait these are my constructors.
"Did I fell asleep?" I wondered.
"Ah! You're finally awake, Drake…" sighed Benladann.
"You drank twelve bottles of Sake and fell unconscious afterwards." Said Miranda.
"W-What?! I thought I was immune to that stuff…" I sighed.
System! What is the meaning of this? I thought I would never be knocked out by alcohol… did you lie to me?!
<Answer: I did not. You were just an idiot and drank way too much. Also the alcohol you drank is different than simple wine. The quality of such a sake is attained by using several millenary techniques which utilize magical items and materials such as spirit stones, which makes the sake a special magical beverage. It is different from normal sake and therefore it might make you pass out if you don't develop a resistance in time, which you didn't. …Don't worry, it shouldn't happen anymore… well, maybe>
Eh? You're not becoming that reliable anymore…
<How come?! I have helped you all this time! In fact I helped you find the graveyard right away, ungrateful dragon!>
Okay, okay, sorry…
<Hmph…>
The System had become way more tsundere lately, and bold too. She's really becoming a person of her own.
"Ah, I am sorry for falling asleep… How long did I slept?" I asked.
"Hmm… Around 6 hours… Its already 7 PM." Said Miranda.
"Ohohoho! I see that you really liked the sake! I've made it extra spicy and infused with magic because I couldn't get drunk with normal sake, so I had to put it in some extra effort." Said Yukihime.
"You're really a handful sometimes… But it was good, feeling drunk for once really hit the spot there. Your alcohol is nice. We might end up replicating the recipe, hope you don't mind, Yukihime~" I laughed.
"W-Wait! You can't! T-That's unfair!" she said.
"Hehe, everything is unfair in life, and you're dead already." I said.
"Y-You said you were going to revive me one of these days!" she proclaimed.
"Well, maybe…" I said while averting my gaze from her.
"Y-You better keep your promise, lizard!" said Yukihime, suddenly summoning a large blade of ice.
"Want Skadi and Uller to teach you a lesson again?" I asked, as the two weapons suddenly emerged out of my shadow.
"N-No! Okay, time out. No fighting, we are all pacifist in here." Said Yukihime.
"You're really a handful." Sighed Mikoto.
