67. Let it rest overnight (3)

Catching monsters by yourself is a difficult task in itself, so how can it be so easy alone?

Ariando needed people to take care of him.

“So I’m going to try hiring mercenaries!”

So Ariando made a plan to hire mercenaries according to the scenario.

If I had known that we would become friends like this, I wouldn’t have bothered to register at the mercenary guild.

“If I told you not to go, wouldn’t you listen?”

“of course. If I don’t go, she’s in danger?”

“Then leave the hiring of mercenaries to me. I want to follow you too.”

“to? Are you using the boss?”

“Yes, actually I am a former mercenary. I’m retired now, but my skills haven’t died yet.”

Ariando looks up at me with his eyes wide open.

“It seems to be something that can be done to earn quite a lot of pocket money, but I can’t just hand over a request that can be sucked in to other guys. Didn’t you bring a lot of money to use when hiring mercenaries?”

“That’s true… but was the boss a mercenary?”

Ariando’s eyes twinkle in surprise.

“Most of them said that it seemed like a good fit for them when they said that they did mercenary work, and they said that they chose their job well.”

Didn’t it seem like it didn’t suit him?

“I am very surprised. I thought I was an illegitimate son of an aristocrat.”

aristocratic illegitimate son.

If you are not officially listed in the family, there are many cases where you live like a commoner with enough support to live on moderately.

In particular, in the case of illegitimate children who have not awakened, most of them walk the same path.

And Ariando must have thought I was such an illegitimate child.

If you were the illegitimate son of a nobleman, there was no reason to do harsh mercenary work, so when you heard that I was a mercenary, I realized that it was a misunderstanding that you thought I was an illegitimate son.

“You are probably the first person in your life who has misunderstood me as an illegitimate son of an aristocrat.”

There was a time when I used an item that could increase my charm to enter Academy City, but I guess that was overkill.

Looking at the misunderstanding that I have never heard of in my life so far.

Asking a noble if he was an illegitimate child would be a disgraceful curse, but asking a commoner would be a compliment, so it didn’t feel bad.

From a commoner’s point of view, asking such a question itself meant that he looked like an aristocrat.

“But what about the academy?”

If I went to hunt monsters, I would have to miss the academy without permission for at least a few days.

The travel time would be quite long, so it was inevitable that news would come into the house.

“that…”

Ariando suddenly starts to hesitate.

Ariando, who was so proud and courageous, gradually shrank.

The academy problem seemed to be a problem that even the smartest Ariando could not solve.

“It’s an unavoidable sacrifice. To do something big, you have to be prepared for some sacrifice.”

Getting scolded by your parents VS Sister’s death

Anyone can see that it is right to block the latter.

“You’re not going to report it, are you?”

I had no intention of blocking the scenario, an opportunity for Ariando to grow.

“No. Why me? If I take you, I can get a lot of money.”

Ariando is a color for my sullen attitude.

“Good idea! I’ll give you a lot of money!”

“Since you’re the daughter of a ducal family, it’s embarrassing.”

“Huh? Did you know that my family is a ducal family?”

“…Somehow. It’s so famous.”

“I’m quite popular, but hehehehe!”

Ariando has been a hot topic since childhood for her cute looks and genius skills.

There was no student in the academy who didn’t know her, so you would think there’s no way I didn’t hear about her.

“Boss, then can we leave tomorrow right away?”

“Tomorrow right away?”

“yes!”

“That’s a bit difficult. It takes days to find mercenaries, and you can’t go empty-handed when you leave.”

“Time is running out. My sister will recover and move soon. We have to solve it before then.”

Ariando looked very urgent.

It was that I had to do everything perfectly and go back, even for the sake of my relationship with my older sister, who was already not good.

“Fu…okay. It’ll cost a bit more money, but let’s get ready as soon as possible. Let’s start at dawn the next day. How is it?”

I was thinking of moving with this guy, so I had something prepared in advance.

Thanks to that, it was possible to start the next morning at dawn.

“It would be great if you would do that!”

From noble mtl dot com

He was a guy who just needed to be able to leave to catch monsters quickly, so of course he didn’t reject my offer.

“I’ll make all the preparations for leaving, so stop going back to the academy.”

“Eh…? Go back?”

Ariando was taken aback by my words.

“Why are you flustered? That’s natural.”

“I can’t go back to that academy.”

“What kind of bullsh*t is that? Why can’t you go back?”

It doesn’t make sense that the academy doesn’t accept students.

“hehehehe, I was so shocked when I heard that my sister was hurt that I had already run out of the academy without permission. If I go back, I’ll probably be disciplined, so it won’t be possible to come out again tomorrow.”

The reason was that he had already had an accident and could not return.

I was scolded, but what would the academy think if I disappeared again the next day?

You’d think he’d make fun of us and look down on us.

In order to receive such a misunderstanding, it would be better to extend the deadline for leaving home by one more day.

‘He looks like this (?) on the outside, so he’s smart.’

What is probation?

It is a law that gives time for guidance by delaying the execution of the sentence for a certain period of time rather than immediately executing it after a sentence of guilt is sentenced.

During the time of guidance, one should not commit the same crime, but if the same crime was committed again, it could be severely punished.

‘In a word, let’s end running away once and for all.’

It’s a very clever choice.

I would have thought so if it hadn’t been for the words that followed.

“So that’s what I mean…”

“???”

“Please let me sleep for one night. hehehe!”

I don’t know why I don’t make a short sound only at times like this, but it was a request that made me want to block my ears.

⁂ ⁂ ⁂

“Muaaang~!”

thump!

Ariando, wearing my clothes, washed up and ran around all over the place before throwing herself on the bed.

It was something that anyone could see that a child would do, so the tension eased a little.

‘Yes, it’s true that he’s 19 years old, but no matter who sees it, Jammin has a face that would make friends with No. 1 and No. 2. There’s no need to be nervous at all.’

Being nervous about letting him sleep for a night might prove that he is garbage.

“It blows dust.”

“Muaang~ Muaaang~ Fluffy!”

I spent a lot of money on the bed, so it’s good to say it’s good.

I thought that nothing affects my health as much as sleeping, so I found a brand that was used by aristocrats and bought a bed.

I had to pay a high price, but as a result of using it so far, the money spent was not a waste.

And, in case someone was not a well-bred aristocrat, he found a good bed and preoccupied the first place.

‘I was going to sleep on the sofa.’

Ariand, who rolls his feet and rolls round and round on the bed, covering his own body odor.

Of course, the aristocrat’s narrow-mindedness of thinking that one should sleep in a bed stood out.

“Mercenary boss!”

The guy who had been rolling around on the bed for a while suddenly stopped moving, raised his head while lying on his stomach, and called out to me.

“why.”

“I’m hungry!”

“…”

I even provided you with a bed, but now you want me to colonel rice?

“Am I your servant?”

“Huh, no.”

“Then what should I do if I’m hungry?”

“…Go out and buy something and eat it??”

“Yes. I know.”

You might say it’s heartless to let a little girl out on a dark night.

However, he wasn’t really a child like his appearance, and he was even a genius with great skills among the Awakened.

If someone tries to do bad things to Ariando, it’s a situation where you have to worry about the culprit.

“The mercenary boss, the mercenary boss! It’s dark outside right now. Is there a store open?”

“There are many, right?”

At my words, Ariando pursed her lips.

I washed it clean, but I don’t want to go outside and get dirty, and it will be annoying.

“Ha, that’s it. Wait. I’ll bring you something to eat.”

“Oh yeah! Thank you!”

While thinking about what to do, I suddenly thought that I was a little hungry too.

If he’s not eating alone and I have to eat with him, then I’ll have to eat the right thing.

“As expected, ramen at night.”

One of the few things I struggled with while reincarnating in another world was cooking.

Of course, I’ve gotten used to the Western food I’ve been eating since childhood, but don’t you know Koreans?

It is Korean to eat kimchi fried rice with kimchi.

I couldn’t stand the longing for kimchi, and after opening the general store, I spent the rest of my time trying to recreate Korean food.

Since Academy City is the place where unique ingredients gather, it was not difficult to find alternative ingredients.

It was not that difficult to recreate Korean food if you had the money.

And finally, having succeeded in reproducing kimchi, I was in a state of challenging other Korean foods.

as soon as….

‘ramen!’

It’s ramen.

It’s ironic that I want to eat ramen, not Korean food like soybean paste soup, after kimchi…

‘Because miso soup can be fully satisfied with kimchi stew.’

Soybean paste soup and kimchi jjigae were both my favorite foods.

However, ramen is very difficult to reproduce and very difficult to make.

The noodles had to be steamed and then fried to complete the unique noodles, and making the soup called the king of MSG was also very tricky.

Make broth using beef, add red pepper powder and mushroom broth, salt and pepper, etc.

Several seasonings were added.

Through various experiments, he succeeded in creating a similar taste to ramen, and decided to boil Ariando with this world-style ramen.

‘It’s difficult to ask for it every day because it’s so delicious.’

Still, since the ramen attracts me right now, I take out the pot and pour 1 liter of it, chop up a bunch of mushrooms for the ingredients, and add the red pepper… Ariando won’t be able to eat it, so unfortunately I pass it on, and add some green onions and minced meat.

If you don’t like meat, you can add ham.

It’s a fantasy world, so ham is quite developed, so in the case of delicious ham, it enriched the taste of ramen.

Now that there is minced meat, skip it, and mix the egg yolk and white in advance.

Sniff sniff sniff- Etchu!

The smell of food had entered the room and I could hear Ariando coughing.

When the water boils, drop the 2 servings of ramen you made with great effort into the water.

And add a secret sauce made by mimicking ramen soup.

On top of the bubbling ramen, I put the green onion, which was cut into rather large pieces, and when the noodles were cooked, I took them out and put them in a bowl.

Pour the beaten egg into the boiling broth.

When the egg touches the soup and is fully cooked, the soup is poured half-and-half into the bowl containing the noodles.

gulp!

The smell made my salivary glands collect, but Ariando appeared and sniffed as if it wasn’t just me.

Sniff sniff!

“Mercenary boss, what is this? It’s the first smell I’ve ever smelled!”

“It’s a bit spicy for you, but it’s the most delicious thing to eat at night.”

Since it was the product of countless failures, I proudly showed Ariando the ramen.
