Chapter 64: Fried chicken
"Yawnnnn~. Now that we are finally done, how about we go get some food first?" she suggested with a tired look on her face and though lost in the scenery around him, he nodded at her suggestion.
"Sure. But are there any good places that will have something as good as your cooking?"
He wasn't teasing her this time, he was merely being genuine with his words.
He loved her cooking, so much so that he hardly ever ate anything other than the things she made.
It had been like that for a few years now, and yes they surely ate out, ordered in, and lived off of packaged food sometimes, both of them liked cooking and helping one another make special things for one another.
"What do you take this town for, dummy. This is a different world. Of course there are things much better than the things that I make."
She was confident about that, actually.
In the time he wasn't here, she had explored the town and looked around at the things that were famous and tried things that people all over the community recommended.
She knew some of the places here at least provided some top class things that would be quite attractive to the new players of the town.
There were also some must visit places around the town so, she wanted to visit them all with him.
"Let me show you a good fried chicken place." she started dragging him before he even reacted to her suggestion.
"They have fried chicken here?"
"They even have italian, hehe. Don't underestimate the cultural diversity of these starter towns."
As someone who had gone all around this world and tried all kinds of things, she knew very well how there were things that were unfathomable to even individuals like Them when it came to food.
There were things in this world that one could never even hope to reproduce in the real world. She had tried it herself but she could never do it.
There was no way to do it actually since the kind of ingredients one can find in this place, the kind of techniques and cooking methods that one can use, as well as the kind of experiences one can have in thai virtual world was just too different from reality.
It was close to reality and at the same time, it was not real…
No.15 in unified rankings was a chef. A chef that had no offensive skills and yet was at some of the highest positions any player of this world could possibly want to reach.
"The fried chicken and the alcohol they serve here is just too amazing. You'll like this place."
She dragged him all the way to the high class district's biggest restaurant, a six story building that one could see even from across two streets.
It was a grand hotel, a place that also provided various other services on top of their great food. But, the chef here was a high class individual, someone who was one of the highest level people of this town, and someone who had learned from his long years of travels.
They were famous among the players as well as the rich natives of this town.
Many of the famous players of the town and those in big guilds frequented here often.
They all recommended the taste of the fried food here, and since she had tried it herself, she knew this darling of hers would like it as well.
"Hmmm? Aren't you…"
However, right when they were about to enter the place, a voice from behind stopped them in their tracks.
"Right. I was right."
It was a warm voice. One that contained decades of real world experience, one that was different from many voices that they had heard while walking around the streets earlier.
They had to turn around and see the source of this voice.
"Miss… Aloha?"
And when they did turn around, even Elio recognised this lady at a glance.
"Oh, it's an honor to be recognised by the savior of our town."
A tall elder woman who seemed to be in her late fifties from the faint wrinkles on her face, but her still strong, mature physique and the way she was dressed made her seem like one of those old rich ladies who were just enjoying their days after retirement.
"Oh no no, miss. The honor is all ours." Even Alex was surprised to see this individual and greeted her with a bow.
She respected those she looked up to, and in this town, this person was one of the few that she could not help but respect with all her heart.
"Huhuhu, what honor could an old lady like me bring to you who saved this home like town of mine."
Wearing a lavish and finely crafted purple dress that was covered in rich embroidery, white gloves and comfortable yet attractive looking shoes– as well as a dull blue hat that strangely went well with her outfit, she was carrying a small expensive looking purse around.
She wasn't wearing any heels, but she was still as tall as both of them who were over six feet tall.
Her dark brown hair still contained a glow that many ladies her age might start losing, and her skin devoid of any kind of makeup was as full of life as Alex's.
Her deep amber eyes were full of life for someone who actually was old, and the smile that she had as she looked at the two of them was not that of interest or surprise, but simply that of a deep gratitude.
"Oh, looks like you two were going in. Would it be fine for me to join you two? I wanted to have a little chat, you see."
"Oh! Yes. Please!"
"We don't mind, not at all!"
Elio and Alex both did not expect she would directly ask to join them like that, but they would not deny the very representative of the players who also had been in this town for the longest.
If anything, people had to wait for weeks to get a simple appointment with her.
She was famous not just in this town, but throughout the entire northwest for her special skills.
Perhaps in the entire viscounty, she was one of the most famous hair stylists that even the mayor and viscount who governed this entire land had to take appointments to meet.
And if they were getting a chance to have food with her directly, both of them would be just dumb to reject this great opportunity. Continue reading at ???
