Larry gently scraped the back of the roasted suckling pig with a dining knife, and the tempting oil dripped slightly from the opening of the pig's mouth, filling the air with the aroma that made their mouths water. The girl with the hood swallowed her saliva, her eyes fixed on the fork and knife in Larry's hand.
Larry couldn't help but laugh at the sight, "Why aren't you eating? Since I invited you, relax and enjoy the meal with me. If you want to eat something else, just say it, and I'll have them make it."
Upon hearing Larry's words, the girl with the hood also let go of her girlish reserve and picked up the dining knife, carefully taking a piece of pork. Larry observed the girl's actions and even when faced with such food as the roasted suckling pig, her movements remained elegant. She didn't look like an ordinary person.
But seeing the way the girl salivated every time she made a move, Larry found it very amusing. (I have to add here that I am writing while salivating.)
However, his hands never paused in their actions. Soon, a piece of delicious roasted suckling pig was placed on the plate. The greasy and juicy pork was divided by Larry, and even when the fork was inserted, there were still some tempting oil droplets. Larry took a bite, and the tender suckling pig meat, after repeated grilling, left a lingering meaty aroma on his lips and teeth with every chew.
"It's delicious."
Larry looked at the roasted suckling pig in astonishment.
Larry knew that the food in his warehouse and the food they were currently eating were definitely not the same. The same type of food brought from the game must taste better than what they had here because the food in the game had been programmed to be perfect.
Even though the roasted suckling pig here was so delicious, the tens of thousands of roasted suckling pigs in his warehouse...
Larry swallowed his saliva. As a foodie, he felt extremely happy.
The girl also put a small piece of roasted suckling pig into her mouth and then covered her cheek with a blissful look, "It's delicious!"
Without Larry reminding her, the girl picked up her pace.
Larry poured himself a glass of milk and also poured one for the girl, handing it to her.
"If you're thirsty, drink the milk. Eating greasy food for too long can be boring, but after a sip of milk, you can continue eating."
After finishing his sentence, Larry drank the milk in one gulp. The cat-eared girl had taken great care to heat up the milk, and after a mouthful of milk, Larry felt an indescribable sense of refreshment. He immediately poured himself another glass.
"Can Chloe take off her hood? It's not convenient to eat like this."
Larry looked at Chloe across from him.
When Chloe heard Larry's words, she stopped and looked around. Seeing that there were not many people paying attention to them, she took off the hood on her head.
Her golden hair was nicely tied behind her head, and her deep blue eyes resembled sapphires. Her slender eyebrows were always slightly furrowed, giving her a pitiful appearance that made people unable to resist caring for her.
"You look stunning," Larry exclaimed, his eyes wide open.
"..Thank you," Chloe replied with a modest smile.
"What are you going to do after dinner, Chloe?" Larry swallowed a piece of meat and casually asked.
Chloe lightly bit into a piece of meat while pondering, "I want to wander around the capital city."
Upon hearing her answer, Larry was taken aback and smiled, "That's exactly what I'm planning to do."
Chloe first looked at Larry with skepticism, then happily said, "Really? Then we can go together."
Larry picked up a nut with the fork, took a bite, and nodded, "Sure, but I'm not familiar with the capital city at all, so maybe we can just wander aimlessly."
Chloe waved the fork with a piece of meat in her hand and the aroma filled the air, "I rarely play in the capital city either, it wouldn't be fun at all if someone guided us."
Larry spread his hands, and the two continued to devour the food on the table.After the conquest they undertook together, there was only one pig head left from the roast suckling pig. Neither of them liked eating pig head meat, so no one made a move to cut it. Larry was seeing the size of his own stomach for the first time as he looked at the pile of bones on the table.
Chloe patted her belly in satisfaction and lifted her cup, gesturing for Larry to toast with her.
Reluctantly, Larry raised his cup and downed the milk in one gulp.
After lying paralyzed in the chair for a while, Larry got up and tapped the meal bell on the table.
The cat-eared girl responded promptly.
"20 silver tilas, sir."
"Here you go."
Larry handed the cat-eared girl one gold tila and received 80 silver tilas in return. It wasn't because he wanted to keep some, but rather because he didn't want to encounter the same situation as the apple stall owner again. It was better to pay, right?
He placed 10 silver tilas in the cat-eared girl's hand and said, "This is your tip. I hope it will be you serving us next time."
"Thank you very much," said the cat-eared girl happily.
Larry waved his hand and left the inn called "Drunken Nightingale" with Chloe.
Chloe had already put on her hood, and Larry didn't have much of an opinion about it other than curiosity.
The two of them continued to wander around the capital, experiencing various novel things.
"Oss, look, is he stealing?" Chloe pointed to a thief who was stealing and said to Larry before running over herself.
The thief noticed Chloe running towards him and fled into a nearby alley.
Chloe chased after him without hesitation.
Larry furrowed his brows and shook his head. The "victim" had already disappeared, along with a few people who had been intentionally or unintentionally watching the scene.
They followed Chloe into a narrow alley after a while. After turning a corner, Chloe and Larry saw a group of about ten people holding various weapons and looking at them with ill intentions.
Chloe wasn't a fool and immediately realized she had been tricked.
She thought to herself, "This isn't good."
"There are actually fools who would see something like this and follow," said a hooligan wearing a tattered hat, grinning with a spiked club made of nails in his hand. "Last time, those fools had quite a bit of money on them, and I bet this group is similar."
"Honestly hand over the money you have on you, or else this pretty lady here, with her great figure, will be irresistible to us," threatened another hooligan who was tall and burly.
"Fools, we're only here to rob their money. Don't think about those things. If we get caught because of that, we'll be locked up for several years!" scolded the tall hooligan with a red headband behind the burly one, slapping him on the head in anger.
"Just robbery, huh?" After hearing their conversation, Larry dispersed the fire elements around them. Without the group across the alley knowing, he spared their lives.
At that moment, Larry raised an eyebrow and looked back at the entrance of the alley.
Several hooligans dressed in ragged clothes were thrown in, spitting blood. Then, the sound of a group of people's footsteps followed.
Larry looked with interest at the incoming group, then glanced at the angry hooligans in the alley, lost in thought.
"They're not from the same group." From the beginning, someone had been following Larry since the apple stall. When this incident happened and Chloe chased after him, Larry thought it was the same group following him. Who would have thought the two sides were not related?
"Are these your reinforcements? You dared to injure our comrades, you're... dead..." The hooligan with the tattered headband said angrily, but his tone became cautious when he saw the figures that had entered.
Only seven or eight people came in, wearing cloaks. From their swift movements, it could be seen that the people under the cloaks were all wearing leather armor, and each one held a long sword, much more refined than the knives, guns, and clubs the hooligans had.
"If you don't want to die, get lost quickly, you bugs who only know how to steal and sneak," Larry added.The hoarse voice came from the leading cloaked man, instantly arousing anger and indignation among the previously fearful thugs, who began clamoring to crush their opponents.
"Psh, bothersome," the leading cloaked man dismissed.
Ignoring Larry and Chloe, the leading cloaked man turned to the people behind him and said, "Take care of those idiots. This time, we've got a big fish."
A group of cloaked figures behind him instantly drew their weapons and charged forward, while the opposing thugs also pulled out their weapons to meet them.
Hearing what the leading man said, Larry naturally knew what it meant.
Today, he had casually given a coin, and it seemed like he had caught the attention of this group of people, who likely believed that he had more coins on him and wanted to extort him.
As for Chloe, upon hearing the man's words, her face turned pale, her thoughts unknown.
