Chapter.3 Chicken and Palenque
“So you accepted it? “I take it as confirmed!”
Mr. Ment began to smile brightly. It’s a face I like very much. No one spits on a smiling face. I gave him some rice cake in return.
“Then, let’s officially present this Palenque dish.”
“yes? What about the dish you just ate? Is that possible?”
He asks with a very surprised expression. This is a natural reaction since Palenqueran cuisine is known to be very rare.
Of course, you can still catch Falen Q. No, I plan to make it that way. So, would you say it seems like a perfect food for the eve?
“I discovered an easy way to catch Palenque. Is this some kind of food revolution? So don’t worry. It won’t be that expensive. “You can think of it as roughly the price of Uka meat. What do you think?”
Uka meat.
That is, beef.
In fact, beef is not a good price in any world. In this world as well as in modern times, high-quality beef always comes at a high price.
So, it was necessary to ask whether the price range was right. Just because I want to use Falen Q doesn’t mean I can exceed the other person’s budget.
“Oh, I think that’s enough to pay for it. “I think it will be a good eve.”
“I’m just grateful that you attract customers.”
“no. “I am truly grateful.”
Mr. Ment shook his head and calculated the price of the beer.
Suddenly, I ended up accepting group guests.
14 people after 3 days. It was a good opportunity because I wanted to fill the restaurant with a large number of people at least once.
“Kha!”
When I returned after seeing the two people off, Dragon was pouring me a beer as if he had nothing to do with it. When I return to the kitchen, it is mushy and sticks together quickly.
However, this does not happen when there are guests.
No. This is something they don’t do often even when there are no customers.
This is a dragon that usually asks to be held, but is not held like this first.
The dragon suddenly jumped onto my back in some kind of mental state, placed its chin on the top of my head, wrapped its legs around my upper body, and started laughing.
“Hehehe! “What are you doing? Let’s eat!”
Moreover, the way he spoke was like that of a complete drunkard. Huh, drunk? I automatically frowned and asked the dragon.
“Are you really drunk?”
In response to my question filled with discomfort, the tone of voice immediately returned.
“That can’t be possible!”
“There is something missing.”
I turned away and counted the cans of beer she had consumed. One two three four five six seven and soju.
Beer cans don’t matter. The problem is soju.
This damn dragon mixed beer with soju while I wasn’t looking. I can’t live.
An atrocity committed the moment I let my guard down while talking to Mr. Ment.
As a human being, Lulin does not get drunk on beer. However, I was secretly weak against soju. However, I really like wheat. But I get drunk. So it’s been a long time since it was banned, but in the meantime! Meanwhile!
“Hey dude. Won’t it fall?”
“Sita! Sigh! It won’t fall! You will not fall until you die! And… I don’t want to die. “Don’t die…”
It’s so exquisitely stuck that it’s difficult to drop it. No, I’m telling you not to die. Thank you, but is that something you would say while drunk? I have no plans to die for the time being. Ugh.
“Excuse me?”
Moreover, at that moment, Mr. Ment’s junior. So Miltein stuck his head into the store. Timing kills once. He had a face that looked like he had something to say, but as soon as he saw me stuck with Rurin, he started to look at me with a look on his face asking what kind of situation this was, so I had to make an excuse.
“Oh, I’m an employee, but I was drunk and passed out, so you don’t have to worry about me. ha ha ha. Alcohol is always a problem. “Alcohol.”
“Aaaah!”
sick. The damn dragon bit the back of his head. You can’t scream in front of guests. Now it looks like I’m going to eat it.
“Oh yeah? “Is this the lady…?”
“yes? no?”
Is the dragon your wife? How can such a conclusion be reached in this situation?
“is that so? Hmm? Ah, more than that! “I came back with a favor to ask.”
“Please?”
“yes!”
He rummaged around in his arms, took out a bundle of money, and handed it to me. It was approximately 10,000 runes. Converted into modern money, it is worth approximately 100,000 won.
“The reason I was able to become a mercenary is because I received great help from senior Ment. But I have not been able to repay you once. Are you just looking for an opportunity? Then, not long ago, I completed my first quest on my own and received a success reward. So that’s it! “I just had a brilliant idea, so as soon as I said goodbye to my senior, I ran like crazy!”
As soon as I heard that, I started to get a feel for it. If an amazing idea comes to mind when you see me, it’s probably related to cooking. So he must have pushed the money.
“Are you going to ask me to cook for you?”
“yes! “That’s it!”
His eyes widen and he opens his mouth with an expression that asks, “How did you know?”
“Can you prepare a very spicy food for my senior at the eve? By the way, my senior likes spicy food, so he always enjoys eating that type of food whenever I go out to a distant city for work. It’s not the first time I’ve heard people complain that there is no spicy food in this city. The palen cue dish from earlier was also very delicious, but I thought it would be nice if I could buy you the spicy dish you enjoy the most with the money I earned. So, if you can make a very spicy and spicy dish, please do so!”
There is no reason to refuse. Anyway, the principle I bet on is to satisfy customers without a set menu.
“Let’s give it a try. “It seems possible.”
“thank you! thank you! Then we’ll wait 3 days! Hehehe. Oh, but over there…?”
He smiled happily, then suddenly pointed at my head with a troubled look on his face.
“It looks like you’re sleeping with drool on your head… are you okay? “Your wife is so beautiful… but you’re drunk… right?”
“ha ha ha. “Spit?”
This damn dragon. Somehow, something felt cold.
I said, trying hard to feign composure.
“it’s okay. “Then I’ll see you in three days.”
“Ah yes! I won’t disturb you, so let’s go. Hehehe.”
What is interference? Because it’s not your wife. This is a man who doesn’t listen to people. I shouted with resentment, leaving Miltain behind as he hurriedly disappeared.
“Hey Lulin!”
“Gorolong gororolong.”
But all I can hear is snoring.
I had no choice but to go up to the second floor carrying Lurin, who was stuck. And laid it down on the bed. After watching it for a while, I went downstairs to clean it up, but it got stuck again while I was sleeping.
“you… Don’t go. I don’t want to go. I wish you would stay by my side. “Spread it!”
“I’m not going. “I’ll come back after cleaning up the kitchen, so please sleep peacefully.”
I barely got rid of the drunken dragon and went downstairs. Then, staggering like a sleepwalker, he walks over and hugs me again.
Once you get drunk, you can’t come to your senses like this. That’s why I kept a close eye on him so he couldn’t drink soju.
“I told you not to go! To you!”
He grabs me from the front and holds my clothes tightly.
“Because you are my friend!”
Only when he comes into my arms does he become calm again. A quiet growling sound is heard.
If you separate it again, it will stick together in the same way.
Can not help it. It’s my fault for making you drunk. I picked up the dragon and went back up to the second floor. With the intention of staying with you until you fall completely asleep.

Kyuu –
Kyuu –
In the Limon Forest, the cries of Palanque have been clearly heard for the past few days. People who realized that it was Falen Q tried to catch it, but it is a very quick monster. The speed at which it runs away is so great that human vision cannot chase it, and not a single person has succeeded in catching it. It’s not called legendary meat for nothing.
But I am different. Not only did they catch fish, but they also turned this forest of Limon into a chicken coop.
A chicken coop made in the forest. Isn’t it okay?
Kyuu – Kyuu –
Of course, just because it’s made out of a chicken coop doesn’t mean it’s visible. All I can still hear is crying. These Palenques were fluttering about when they sat on top of the bamboo for a while. Only then can you capture it.
Palenque is a monster that roams around, changing habitats. It has only now appeared in Limon Forest, but at some point it will move its habitat to another place.
In other words, appearing in Limon Forest now is, in a way, a gift brought by chance. Of course, I have no intention of just throwing that coincidence away.
So, I fixed the habitat of the Palenque group as this Limon Forest. They made the Limon Forest their only habitat. In this way, they can come to catch you at any time, and you can get Palenque’s eggs, that is, eggs, with peace of mind. Monsters don’t need mercy anyway. To humans, monsters are like pests. No matter how legendary a fish is, the damage it causes to rice paddies and fields as it changes habitat is beyond imagination. It’s not called a monster for nothing.
The Limon Forest was infested with numerous bugs, so Palenque had plenty of food. Limiting the habitat to the Limon Forest does not limit freedom. It’s just that you can’t run out of the Limon Forest. Limon Forest is a lot bigger than I thought.
A place that has everything a chicken coop needs.
Of course, the reason this was possible was purely because of the dragon.
I ordered Rurin to seal the entire Limon Forest. This is one of the ways dragons protect rares.
So you can fly freely in the sky. But I couldn’t go out of the Limon Forest. Because an invisible wall has appeared around Limon Forest. Plus it only limits monsters.
It is a type of specialty that dragons have.
Realizing that they could not go anywhere else, the Palenques struggled for a moment, but soon submitted to their fate and began laying eggs here and there in the bamboo forest.
They make a nest by connecting bamboo together with soil. And it laid an egg in that nest. It was a height beyond the reach of human hands, but it didn’t really matter to me.
What is especially convenient is that chickens usually lay eggs without mating. That is an unfertilized egg. What is produced through mating is a fertilized egg.
Falen Q was a chicken that evolved into a fighting type, but almost everything was similar. The fertilized egg hatches and grows into a paleotype again. In other words, the Limon Forest is constantly supplied with Palenque.
In the case of eggs, I planned to get only as much as I needed.
As long as you do not dry the seeds, you can continuously obtain small amounts of Palenque and eggs.
So it’s a chicken coop.
Kyuu – Kyuu –
I checked the direction where they were gathered through the crying Palenque and whispered to Rurin.
“Let’s just catch 11.”
“You mean 11 of them?”
“okay.”
If you catch one Palenque at most, it will serve 3 people. Even if you are a little small, the size is enough for two people. Therefore, 10 were enough to give to the mercenaries.
“Rather than that, yours and mine. “How about two?”
Lurin must have misunderstood and said something strange. Cute guy.
“One for you. And the rest are for guests. So hurry and drop it to the floor. “It’s work.”
“Oh, is that something like that?”
It took a considerable amount of time to make Rurin understand the concept of a restaurant. Because dragons have no concept of a restaurant.
To Lurin, who first came into the world, everything was just a wonder.
Because I understand the restaurant industry, I accept it as a job. The dragon. Even now, I was concentrating and glaring at Falen Q.
Hood!
And soon, Palenques fall in a heap due to the dragon’s pier.
Without a single wound.
It’s so comfortable.
