TEASER
Side Story : When Alcohol is Involved, Wisdom Escapes
At
Ushitotei, which was both a bar and an inn, there was a strange and bizarre
sight that would make anyone who saw it doubt their eyes.
A
fox-tailed boy was eating there.
That
much was normal, but what was unusual was the number of dishes spread out in
front of him.
In
front of Feo, the fox-tailed boy, there were more dishes laid out that even
three tables wouldn't fit.
Hot
bread baked in the oven. A whole roasted chicken with vegetables stuffed in the
belly. River fish baked with spices. Pasta piled up like a mountain. All of
these dishes are the pride and joy of the owner of this restaurant, and just
looking at them makes other people who see them drool.
*Glug
glug*
"...
Puhaa!"
The
dishes spread out in front of Feo like a carpet, one after another disappearing
into his stomach.
"...
It's amazing"
"That
guy, Feo. He was really had been cornered, didn't he?"
At
the table next to Feo, who continued to eat with tremendous momentum, Nozomu,
Mars, and Tom were taken aback by what was happening in front of them.
"When
we walked into Feo's room. He looked like a dead leaf..."
"That's
true. Looks like he's been living on water and weeds for almost a week..."
It
had been about two weeks since Nozomu had told Irisdina and the others that he
was a Dragon Slayer in that forest.
It
all started when Nozomu came back to his room in the dormitory after finishing
work on his day off.
As
he happened to pass by Feo's room, Nozomu ran into Tom, who was in front of Feo's
room. When Nozomu talked to Tom, Tom said that Feo hadn't been coming to class
lately, so he came to check on him.
After
hearing Tom's story, Nozomu was also curious about what was going on, so he
knocked on the door of Feo's room, but there was no response.
He
felt something was wrong. When he turned the knob, he found the door unlocked
and Feo was lying on the floor, looking worn out.
As
Nozomu and Tom hurriedly raised Feo's body, they heard a distracting growling
sound coming from Feo's stomach.
Nozomu
and Tom felt that they had no choice but to take the hungry Feo, who had been
weakened to such an extent, to Ushitotei.
The
food served at this restaurant was reasonably priced and in good quantity.
Besides, they were familiar with the people at this restaurant.
By
the way, all the ingredients that Nozomu had bought for dinner had been eaten
by Feo on the way here.
He
was a little taken aback by Feo's biting into raw potatoes, root vegetables,
and even fish.
