The Archmage’s Restaurant

Chapter.2 My friend and Soju

After ordering Rurin to give a shout out, I dressed her up.

“Open your arms.”

“i get it!”

At my words, Lurin raises her arms and stops without any discomfort. Once you put the top on and the bottom on, they can move only then. It’s so natural that there’s nothing much to say now.

After getting dressed, I comb my hair with a comb. If you don’t tidy up your hair that grows out in all directions, it looks like a lion’s mane.

If you carefully touch the black hair, it will quietly surrender itself to you.

At first, they said it was a great being, a dragon, and didn’t even let it come near me.

Even in its dragon form, it seems to be a beautiful dragon that would surprise other dragons, and its human form is also beautiful. Of course, I feel calm now.

Because we’ve been together for quite some time.

“you!”

“Why again?”

“Can’t you be a little gentler? “My hair is delicate.”

“Oh, that’s right.”

As requested, the combing was resumed very delicately. Delicately. And again delicately. Every time that happens, my black hair comes to life. It’s amazing hair. I guess it’s because it’s dragon fur.

After combing everything, start organizing it with a hair tie. When I tie her hair up nicely, Rurin leans on my back and opens her mouth.

“But what is work? Would it be okay to at least give this city a breath of fresh air? Destruction is good. Hi-Hi.”

Lulin emphasizes the dragon’s destructive instinct. Of course I shook my head.

“Don’t be funny and come down.”

“Hey.”

I came down to the first floor, leading the dragon that was making ridiculous noises.

My feelings about Rurin?

Of course there is affection. Because of that affection, I brought Lurin, who lives near the Black Dragon’s sacred site in the center of the continent.

But I don’t know what kind of affection it is.

Anyway, as soon as our dragon went down to the kitchen, he quickly opened the stone refrigerator and took out a can of beer.

He then picks up the beer and drinks it down in one go.

“Kya! This is what it tastes like. After all, beer is the best when you wake up!”

After wiping the corner of Lurin’s mouth, which was foaming at the mouth as she drank beer, I took her hand and placed it in front of me and asked,

“Okay, let’s go do our work. “I have something to help you with.”

“Then I’ll just drink one more can of beer and then I’ll be gone!”

“That’s it.”

“Beer wow!”

I dragged Rurin with me, closed the store, and went down the hill.

“You tend to go a little too far sometimes. A sea demanding improvement. But they still haven’t told me what’s going on. “It must be a great thing to be able to borrow the power of Lord Lurin!”

A black-haired beauty with shining eyes and her hands around her waist.

I took her past the fruit farms at the bottom of the hill and headed to the market. The market is still crowded.

According to Mr. Knoll’s information, Mr. Laine said that he met the other person at a restaurant called De Lant last month. The deran was located near the central square where the commercial and residential districts meet.

Not only Deland, but most of the city’s restaurants are concentrated in this area. You could call it a street of restaurants.

Rurin shouts as she looks at the crowded customers inside the derant.

“Wow you! This restaurant is extremely crowded! “Isn’t the difference between heaven and earth compared to our restaurant?”

“I know.”

“uh? Why are you feeling uncharacteristically depressed? Should we move this restaurant to another place?”

“I’m not trying to make you do something so ridiculous, so please be quiet.”

I looked around. Still Mr. Knoll’s wife. So, Mr. Laine is not visible.

“Then what are you doing?”

After shushing the noisy dragon, I ordered him a beer. Only then does it become a little quiet. It’s like a beer dragon.

After watching the entrance for a while, Mr. Laine finally came in. As Mr. Knoll said, he was indeed with a man. He is a man in his 40s with a sturdy physique similar to Mr. Knoll. I shouldn’t say this, but he looks much neater and cleaner than Mr. Knoll. Should I say that there is no comparison with Mr. Knoll, who has a beard?

“Hey Lurin.”

Gulp, gulp.

“Kha!”

I pulled the ear of the dragon that was drowning in beer. Then he droops his eyebrows and grumbles.

“Why are you doing that! “Whenever you give it to me to eat!”

I look up with a grumpy face and the world has collapsed. Damn cute.

No matter how dragon you are, you cannot polymorph and take on a human appearance. Starting with the skin of the dragon’s body, its color, and its appearance as a dragon are also applied to the human state. Therefore, Lulin’s current appearance is also the appearance she has had since she was born.

So from laughter to crying. It’s all natural. So cuteness is also natural.

“That’s not the problem, it’s finally work.”

“oh? Is that so!”

Only then did Lulin put down his beer glass and his eyes lit up again. Instead of trying to get up, sit back down and drink the entire beer in your glass. Only then did he stand up and come in front of me.

“What can I do! “Will it all break down?”

“You destructive dragon! Who says it’s not black? Do not destroy! Do you see that couple that just came in? Men and women.”

“Yes! see.”

“I want you to overhear what they are saying.”

“and?”

“Is that sweet?”

“you! “Are you telling me to ask Lurin to do something so absurd?”

“Please do something.” “For dinner, your favorite hamburger steak.”

“Really! Oh oh! “Where, where are those two humans?”

Lulin immediately sold the dragon’s self-esteem for a hamburger steak and began looking for the target. At some point, the dragon got used to my cooking and really enjoys eating it.

With eyes full of anticipation for her favorite dish, she opens her mouth and points to the man who came with Mr. Reine.

“It’s nothing more than eavesdropping.”

Speaking of dragon hearing, it had an incredible ability to adjust the hearing range to its liking.

It’s not particularly magic.

It’s an innate dragon ability.

This ability is mainly used by dragons with their own rares to sense their surroundings, and its range extends to the entire mountain.

Therefore, in a restaurant like this, it was possible to control one’s hearing and eavesdrop on sounds. The structure of hearing is different from that of humans.

With Lurin at the forefront, I carefully watched the two people.

The two were sitting facing each other, and Mr. Layne rummaged through his arms, took out a bundle of money, and handed it to the man.

Handing over money?

This is a slightly unexpected situation. As expected, it was a noisy restaurant so I couldn’t hear their conversation at all.

So I looked at the dragon.

Lurin opened her mouth and began to recite the conversation between the two.

“I finally paid it all off today. 10 years of debt. Thank you so much. “If it weren’t for Mr. Ment, neither I nor my husband would have been able to make a comeback.”

“He says all kinds of things. I owe that guy my life. “It was a natural thing to do.”

“Still. “My husband is still cursing me, saying that Mr. Ment betrayed me because I couldn’t even tell him how much I helped him.”

“I had no choice. “You know he’s not the one to take my money, right?”

Thanks to Lulin translating the conversation as is, I was able to fully understand the situation. From overhearing the conversation, it didn’t seem like he was cheating.

But soon the conversation stopped. That’s because we started eating right away.

This is something I was asked to do. Since there was no smell of adultery or any other crime at all, I got up to clearly assess the situation.

“Where are you going?”

Of course, Lulin jumps up and follows me.

“Hello, Mr. Laine?”

“Oh my, L?”

“yes.”

My name here is El. The name is Ellesion. I introduced it to others as L for short, and that’s how I’m called.

“I know this is a little rude, but can you excuse me for a moment? “I have something I want to tell you.”

“yes yes?”

Mr. Laine stared at the man in front of him. The man called Ment looked a little puzzled, but quickly nodded. So, as expected, I was rude, but I pulled out a chair and sat in front.

“Actually, it is. “Mr. Knoll misunderstands that you two are having an affair.”

“yes?”

“four?”

The two people reacted violently and widened their eyes. Lulin stood next to me and looked down at the two people with arrogant eyes. She doesn’t even want to talk to humans except me. It’s like the eyes that see bugs.

Lulin is not human. Of course, it is true that to her as a dragon, ordinary humans are like very insignificant insects.

“What is that…?”

“I saw you two meeting last month, and it seems like you’ve been building up misunderstandings on your own… What happened? At first glance, it seems like it has something to do with debt.”

Mr. Laine made a troubled face at my words and shook his head.

“Because it’s a family problem…”

“I’m sorry, but I am here as Mr. Knoll’s representative. There is nothing good to be gained from accumulating unnecessary misunderstandings. There is such a thing, right? Things that happen because of a misunderstanding and lead to an irreversible situation. “I heard that this is especially common in relationships between men and women.”

It is said that three people who can endure will avoid murder. However, there are many people who commit murder and regret it because they cannot bear it.

Perhaps the origin of that proverb in my hometown is that, while I was watching my wife flirting with someone, I tried to go in with a knife, but after holding back three times, I realized that the person I was flirting with under the blanket was my sister-in-law, and I was relieved… . Anyway, in order to avoid a catastrophe caused by such a misunderstanding, we must clearly understand the current situation.

“And Mr. Laine, actually, this is a secret.”

After a brief pause, I opened my mouth to Reine, who was still hesitating.

“Mr. Knoll thought that Mr. Reine had cheated on him, but he said he couldn’t possibly break up with her and didn’t know what to do, so he left in tears.”

“Oh my god, is it him?”

Mr. Layne widened his eyes as if he was very surprised. Mr. Knoll actually seemed like a person who was not good at expressing love in front of Mr. Layne.

Then Mr. Ment joined in.

“Of course. Mr. Laine. Even when I worked with that Knoll guy, we only talked about Sun Raine.”

“That…”

Mr. Laine lowered his head as if he was embarrassed. Then he opened his mouth as if he had decided on something.

“Actually, there are circumstances.”

“yes?”

Yes, unless you are cheating, there are circumstances. It’s a scene where I can’t understand the idea of money being exchanged without any circumstances. It’s not even a pillar room.
