Chapter 336: Those two are crazy. ……
Tauro and his party discovered the remains of discarded leftover food, which they believed to be the cause of the mass outbreak of flaming crabs, and reported it to the Adventurers’ Guild.
“What!?”
Armine, the receptionist who received the report, exclaimed in surprise.
“Oh, sorry, …….Is that true?”
Receptionist Armine asked Tauro again, dropping the tone of her voice as she caught the attention of the other adventurers.
“Yes. In fact, there had been a suspicious figure the day before, so today we found a disposal site where the figure had been. It looks like someone intentionally created a mass outbreak of flaming crabs.”
“Okay. ……. Please report this to your superiors…”
As receptionist Armine was about to say something, a man with black hair and a mustache, who appeared to be her boss, appeared.
“What’s the matter, Armine-kun?”
“Ah, Deputy Branch Chief! I was just about to report…”
Receptionist Armine relayed Tauro’s report in its entirety.
“…What!? When the branch chief is away… ──It can’t be helped, I’ll tell the town mayor about this directly. If the town mayor finds out about this, he’ll have no choice but to send out the territorial troops.”
The deputy chief replied, got ready to go out, and hurriedly left.
“I hope this will lead to a solution…Then, starting tomorrow, we will subjugate the number of flame crabs that have increased again.”
Tauro calls out to Ragune and Ankh.
“After dealing with flaming crabs every day like this, I’m tempted to do other quests.”
Ankh grumbled, fed up with the daily battle against the flaming crabs.
“It can’t be helped. I knew the day would come when you’d complain, and I had something good in store for you.”
““something good?”
Ankh and Lagune look at each other.
“Here it is.”
What Tauro pulled out of the magic storage was the carcass of a flaming crab.
“Hey, hey, hey, leader. Don’t give me something I’m tired of seeing. …… I knew you were diligently collecting them, but I thought it was to collect magic stones and as proof of subjugation. I didn’t realize you were still saving them. ……”
“Ankh’s right, Tauro. What are you going to do with that many carcasses?”
Ragune also poked a flaming crab the size of a child with her magic spear, which she was tired of looking at after defeating it for so many days.
“Hehehe… ……! I’ll silence you two complainers!”
Tauro said meaningfully, and then he put the flaming crab back into the magic storage again and took them back to the inn.
The inn’s dining room…
“Tauro? What are you doing in the kitchen?”
Ragune called out to Tauro, who has gone into the kitchen with the cook and did not come back.
“Just wait a minute, it will be ready soon!”
“”Can he do it?””
The two quickly arrived at an answer they didn’t like.
Apparently, Tauro is cooking the flaming crabs.
Ragune and Ankh were not convinced that the flaming crab, which they had beaten to the point of disgust, would taste good, and when they made eye contact, they made disgusted faces.
“What should we do, Ragune?”
“What can we do about it now ……”
As the two of them looked at each other with a resigned expression of helplessness, the cook came out from the back of the kitchen with a smile on his face, raving about tauro.
Tauro also comes out with a smile.
A woman employee then came out with a large tray of food.
“Those two are laughing as they tell you what they thought of the flaming crabs. ……”*
Ragune’s face pales in despair.
“Those two are crazy……”
“Damn it, kill me!”
Ankh’s face twitched in sync with Ragune’s.
“Well, you two enjoy the crab dish I’ve prepared for you!”
Tauro smiled confidently as he laid out the crab dishes in front of them.
“Crab sashimi, grilled crab, crab rice, crab tempura, and crab soup.”
With a menu full of crabs, the two begin to imagine their end.
“L-Leader. This definitely won’t upset my stomach…?”
“Huh? It’s totally fine. ──Maybe you two… do you think I’m trying to feed you something strange?”
““Yeah ……!””
They nodded vigorously.
“It’s okay! I mean, crab dishes are expensive, aren’t they? It’s been a long time since I last had it (since my previous life), so I got excited!”
Tauro recommends it to them with a big smile.
The two of them couldn’t help but find that smile to be terrifying, but neither Tauro nor the chef would be satisfied unless they tried it.
At the very front was crab sashimi, but they avoided it.
It seemed to me that raw crab would surely upset they’re stomach.
So they picked up the grilled crab next to it, and with determination, they devoured it all at once.
……
……
“”delicious!””
The two looked at each other and let out a few words, and the rest of the meal was quiet.
They started eating the crab silently.
“Yeah, yeah… You become silent when you eat crab…!”
Tauro was pleased to see the two of them get into it.
The crab sashimi, which was the most avoided dish, was also included in the meal, and the refills were repeated, and the three of them thoroughly enjoyed the crab dishes to their heart’s content.
This is my first crab dish in a while.
It is also delicious to be able to eat with everyone.
It’s too bad Aeris isn’t here, but I’m sure we’ll get a chance to meet sometime.
At that time, we can act like it again.*
Tauro decided not to dwell on Aeris.
