VOLUME 2
Chapter 2: The Curse of the Pyramid
Part 2
The day after the Panda-killing expedition, the inn got very noisy from the morning on.
When Jun went down to the bar, many other adventurers had gathered at the counter. However, Jun’s group should have been the only people staying in the inn…
“Kasumi is teaching a cooking cla.s.s,” said the sulking Eri.
She had been leaning her elbow on the corner of the table and supporting her chin on top of her hand.
“About Yukaria’s previous group mates, they’re leaving on their honeymoon today, so Yukaria went to go see them off.”
“Ah, alright.”
They said that they were going to spend two weeks going on tours for rich people around many different islands for their honeymoon. From an ordinary person’s point of view, adventurers are extremely rich. Especially Yukaria’s group, which had reached the fifth island ring, plowed their way through numerous dungeons and ama.s.sed many rare treasures. They saved up a lot of money selling such rarities. One could say that their a.s.sets were comparable to those of royalty.
Though they had invited Yukaria to join them on their trip, she refused, claiming that she would rather not be tortured by having to watch the two couples flirt all day.
“Eri, aren’t you going to join the cla.s.s?”
“I’ll be the official taster. After all, Kasumi, I really can’t cook. Hmm, is it not fine just to summon bread or hamburgers?”
This was the age of junk food. In addition, hamburger summoning magic was a very reliable spell for summoners.
There were about twenty people attending Kasumi’s cla.s.s. Around seventy percent made up of women, and thirty percent men. More than half of them were Jun’s acquaintances. He remembered those faces belonged to commendable adventurers who had increased their max cooking skill level. Just the other day, they had gone to Altaria Island to increase their cooking level caps. They were immensely thankful for letting them borrow Jun’s group’s airs.h.i.+p. Right now, since another team was going to make the journey to Altaria Island, Jun actually made even more acquaintances than these.
And as for those left here…
“There are really a lot of people from that raid, huh?”
“Kasumi got rather famous back then. Since she was such a brave and impressive tank, many guilds invited her to join them.”
“I didn’t know that.”
“‘Cause n.o.body’s told you. Kasumi refused them immediately. She wouldn’t want to be any other than Jun’s wife, of course.”
“Don’t say ‘wife’. Even so, not telling me, the leader…”
“Jun, maybe she doesn’t trust you?” Jun groaned and scornfully glared at Eri. He made a pitiful face. Eri flapped her arms around hastily. “That was just a joke. I know that Kasumi certainly trusts you one hundred percent.”
Jun sighed in relief.
“Okay, let’s wrap this up. That was…”
“But I just thought of something. Okay. A boy who, in spite of realizing a girl’s feelings for him, continues to behave in an indecisive manner is the worst of the worst!”
“… I just remembered I have some errands to take care of. I’m heading out.”
Turning his back to Eri’s smirking face, Jun left the inn.
