Chapter 173: 173 Meals and conversations

Sitting down amidst the hustle and bustle, Allen let out a breath.

At a glance, one could tell that there were multiple species mixed in the surroundings, but there was not a hint of a bleak atmosphere.

Rather, it was more congenial, and as I immersed myself in such an atmosphere, I realized how entrenched my thinking had been until just now.

I guess I was also in a hurry.

You realize that your mind has been distracted by the desire to help Leeds and the others as soon as possible, and you feel your body's strength go away along with the smell that stimulates your appetite.

While looking at the food laid out on the table in front of you, you let out a sigh once more.

Well, for now, let's just eat first, shall we?

"...... story can be done while eating.

." "Yeah. We're at a standstill to begin with, so if you say you're going to wait until we get to the end of the story, it's going to get completely cold.

Even with this, Allen is educated by the dukes and knows that conversation over meals is not a good idea, but none of the people around him cares about it.

There's no point in worrying about it only for Allen and the others, but first and foremost it's the food.

I put my hands together and muttered a small "Itadakimasu" as I scooped up a mouthful of soup and brought it straight to my mouth.

The saltiness that instantly spread in your mouth is honestly not that great.

The vegetables you toss into your mouth with the soup are well-cooked and flavored, but that's about as far as you can go with the taste of ordinary people.

But with the food in his mouth, Allen's body finally remembered that he was hungry.

And hunger is the spice that trumps any seasoning or ingredient.

Bread, meat, and steamed potatoes, one after the other, were put into their mouths and chewed.

Glancing over at Henriette and her friends, they seem to be concentrating on their meal again.

Although I said I was talking to you while I was talking to you ......, well, it can't be helped.

Come to think of it, it was just before noon when we headed up to the mountain where the cathedral is located.

You have not eaten lunch, as you should, and it is only natural that you would be hungry.

Disappointed with himself for not realizing such a thing, Allen also continued to eat.

Finally, the conversation began after half of the dishes on the table had disappeared from each plate.

You can ask ...... if there is anything unusual about it?

It was only after blinking several times that Milene suddenly uttered that and doubled down on the meaning of the words.

The fact that it was a statement about the cathedral and how he came to such an opinion.

I thought about that opinion for a moment and nodded in agreement.

...... Surely, if that's the case, nothing will change, right?

It's been some ten days since Allen and the others got here.

If Leeds and the others are in the cathedral, then that means that the food supply for the two of them has increased.

It's no small thing, and in fact, it won't be enough.

I don't know how the cathedral gets its food, but it can't be self-sufficient.

If so, it's possible that it must have come from somewhere, or else people would perceive it as unusual.

The city closest to the cathedral is here, and this is the place where the most information about the cathedral is gathered.

If you ask around, you might get something out of it.

The problem with ...... is that you have to be careful about what you say, or you'll get suspicious.

"...... so?　Does it feel pretty normal here?

"Hmmm...depends on about ...... or so, I guess?　And it seems like people are actually listening to a lot of things: ......

With that said, as I turn my gaze to the surroundings, I see a lot of people in my field of vision.

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one, but also a lot of people, considering the size of the inn.

There are many places that have a tavern attached to the inn, but there are also places that don't, so it's probably because people are coming from those places as well.

But not only that, they also seem to have gathered to interact with each other.

Some of them are churchgoers who normally would not meet, and some of them look like merchants.

Even if it is simply to talk, this may be one of the few places where you can hear stories from all over the world, and in this world where the means of information transmission is limited, this kind of place is valuable.

It's not so strange to see people who seem to have various things in their possession, and it wouldn't be so strange if Aren't move to gather information.

But while it's not unnatural, it's also sure to stand out.

If you don't think about it carefully and make a move, you might get into unnecessary trouble.

Well, for me, that's not a bad idea.

Well, ...... even if you can't get any definitive information, you can still come up with something from it.

...... There's a lot that Milene and her friends don't know in the first place.

"...... certainly is.

It's not surprising, but there are too many things that Allen and the others don't know about the cathedral.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this in the future.

You can let out a sigh of remorse as you realize your inexperience, but you can reflect on it later.

However.

...... We'll talk about it later when we actually hear from you, huh?

"You'll have to wait until you tell me what to ask,

"I don't know what to ask you at ...... or should I?

Allen and the others are not the only ones who are listening around.

It would be too dangerous to start talking about specifics here.

We'll talk about it when we get back to our room for now.

While we were talking about it, the dishes on the table were clean and empty.

Your hunger is satisfied and you let out a breath of satisfaction.

Well, let's just go back to our room.

"...... come back again, subtle?

Well, it's time to go.

It's better now, but as I said before, this is a bar.

The number of drunks will increase, and considering the possibility of getting tangled up with them, at least Milene and Henriette should not come here.

It's also possible that you can't get a decent response from a drunk in the first place. ...... It's also possible that he or she is a bit less talkative because of that.

It's a good idea to decide on what to do about it after you return to your room.

"-- may I have a word?

It was at that moment that he was approached unexpectedly.

So Allen wasn't surprised because he was aware that he was being watched.

It's not a good kind of gaze, however, and it's strangely sweet or entangling, so I didn't even turn my head to look at it, not wanting to even get involved if I could. ...... Apparently, it was pointless.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of your time with us.

It wasn't a familiar face.

She had chestnut-colored hair that reached to her waist, and eyes of the same color.

The gender was instantly recognizable as female, and her age was in her early twenties.

The weeping mole around the eyes gave me a strange feeling ...... but more than that, it gave me a chill.

Above all, and ...... squinted at the alarm and wanted to go ignore it, but after having already reacted.

Reluctantly, I returned the words.

"...... do you need us for something?　As you can see, we're just about to go back to our room,

Yes, that's why I called on you. In fact, I'm a little curious about you ...... or should I be more direct?　--As for the cathedral, not interested?　I have some interesting stories about the cathedral,

Naturally, caution prevailed over interest at those words.

Since Allen and the others came to this tavern, the name of the cathedral hasn't been mentioned once.

Of course, it's not strange for the name of the cathedral to come up when you're in this city.

But depending on the flow of the conversation, it could become a problem, so I didn't dare to mention it.

It is obviously unnatural to bring up the word "cathedral" to such Aren's group.

It's not a matter of whether or not it's a good idea to get involved with .......

You should make an appropriate excuse and quickly back away from it -- and

Does the names Leeds and Noel mean anything to you?

A moment later, I realized that it doesn't seem to be that way.

Turning to Henriette and Milene, they nodded at the woman with a clear warning.

Allen nods back, and then turns his attention back to the woman.

You're going to be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

You have ...... good eyes. But it's still no good, there's a lot of people here. Why don't we talk about it slowly in my room?

There's no room to think about the answer.

What does she intend to do, Allen nodded his head while looking at the woman's figure without a care in the world.
