The place we arrived at after Lily was a restaurant.

Unlike during the day when it was bustling with people, the restaurant in the evening was quiet without a single customer.

“… .”

However, Sosha was still in her place at the round table located in the center of the empty restaurant.

In a posture that had not changed at all from the daytime, the gray-haired woman was sipping a drink while facing the setting sun.

“Wow, you really have been drinking right there since morning until now, Sosha?”

“What… Ah, is it Lily?”

The glass of wine aimed at Sosha’s mouth stopped.

Sosha, who stopped drinking and saw me behind Lily, started drinking again without showing any particular reaction.

“If you drink alcohol on an empty stomach, you will lose your stomach. At least eat it as a snack.”

“… Don’t worry.”

Sosha dismissed Lily’s concerns with one word.

Sosha, in a devastated atmosphere illuminated by the setting sun, looked dangerous as if she would collapse at any moment.

That precariousness was Sosha’s special charm.

“Yes, yes. You really did well. Even if you pay attention to it, there is no use.”

“More than that, the four guys behind you were talking loudly during the day, so, how did the game go today?”

[Role playing activates.]

My body bit my lip as if I was indignant, and I barely opened my mouth as if I didn’t want to talk.

It came from my innate cockiness, which I cannot yet imitate with my poor acting.

I should try to do the same as soon as possible.

“… It was a narrow miss.”

“Aren’t you saying you lost in the end? Oh my. I made a loud noise… .”

Belatedly, Lily opened her mouth as if to protect me.

“Still, Feild, you did a pretty good job? This is my first time doing a sex battle.”

Cough-! Cough, Cough!

A cough suddenly burst from Sosha’s mouth.

Sosha, who cleared his throat a few more times because of the alcohol he had been drinking, asked Lily again with an expression as if she had heard wrong.

“Did I hear wrong? What battle?”

“Sex battle. sex. Sexual activity, copulation, mating. Surely you don’t know?”

“Everyone is out of their minds. Did you guys make this thinking it was a serious confrontation?”

“No? Of course, it’s not for serious competition, but for entertainment, show, and entertainment. That’s the reason the Colosseum was created. You really didn’t know?”

“… hmm. No, I knew that if that guy lost, he would suffer… .”

Uncharacteristically, a lame excuse came out of Sosha’s mouth.

Of course, there was no way Sosha would know this.

Colosseum officials regularly hold meetings related to Colosseum operations.

Sosha, who came to the Colosseum restaurant as the owner of the Colosseum restaurant on the condition that he would let her drink as much as he wanted, was only interested in drinking alcohol. Not yet.

“So, I told you not to just drink but to at least show your face during meetings… !”

Lily’s gaze was about to become even harsher, but she stopped midway.

“Well, that’s okay. Because that’s not what’s urgent right now.”

“… I’ll try harder in the future.”

“That’s it. More than that, would you like to cook Feild’s dinner first? bar… There must be an order from the orc hero.”

“I was already doing that.”

Sosha, who had finished her drink, stood up.

Behind Sosha, in the center of the round table, was a large pillar. Although it was a pillar, it was also a kind of large oven.

In the game, every time Sosha brought out something from the oven, it was so delicious that I swallowed my mouth while playing a night game.

Why isn’t the meat of meats called cartoon meat?

The food that Sosha made also felt like cartoon meat.

It feels delicious just by looking at it.

And now, that cartoon meat-like food has become a reality.

“Roasted whole megillob and tears of oak.”

A fish as big as one leg of an adult man, grilled until golden brown, was in front of me.

Next to it, bright red liquid in a transparent bottle was flowing.

[Role playing activates.]

“… What is this?”

Feild was astonished by a large fish he had never seen in his life.

I feel this once again while watching the game and his actual reactions, but I can’t figure out the structure of this guy’s brain at all.

No, living in a fantasy world, why would a fish the size of an adult man’s leg be so big of a deal?

On the subject of cutting up mountains with a losing sword.

“Hmm, I thought you were going around saying you were a hero, but you don’t know Megilop.”

“It’s a precious fish that only lives in the land of orcs. Wouldn’t it be okay to not know? We captured Mr. Paled before we even arrived at the entrance to the Demon World.”

“… This is my first time hearing this story. Didn’t this guy come here on his own feet?”

“Is that important now?”

Lily whirled.

Sosha, who was calmly scratching the back of her neck without changing her facial expression, soon shrugged her shoulders.

“Um… no. It’s none of my business. Well, it’s just as Lily said. It’s a fairly rare freshwater fish that only comes from areas where orcs live. In the Orcs’ way, they roast the whole thing over high heat like this, and the order said to do it this way.”

“Now, Feild. Sit. If you eat your fill, won’t you have the strength to fill the Orc hero again?”

“Kkeuch… .”

“Welcome.”

Even if I resist here anyway, the outcome is obvious.

Either follow the instructions to eat according to the magic spell engraved on your body, or feed it directly in the morning as Lily said.

Personally, I prefer the latter, but it is also a wish that will never come true.

After realizing my situation, my body reluctantly sat down on the chair Lily had pulled out for me.

When I used a fork to dip into the belly of a fish called Magillop and pulled it, a large piece of meat was torn away, hanging on the fork.

When I took a small bite, I realized that the fish was still fish even if it was rotten.

The oily savory flavor spread throughout my mouth. Even though it was a freshwater fish, it was amazing that it didn’t have any earthy smell.

Even if you coat it with seasoning and boil it almost as if you were eating it, it is a freshwater fish that stinks if you do it wrong. It’s a fantasy that doesn’t smell even though it doesn’t use any spices! It’s a taste that makes you nod your head.

Of course, it was just a feeling I felt inside.

Even though I was eating delicious food, my face was scrunched up throughout the meal, as if I was chewing on beef.

I feel amazing that Lily or Sosha are watching this from the side and not saying anything.

Honestly, I don’t think I’d have anything to say even if I got slapped on the ear.

This body had a rather large mouth, as if it had eaten all the eel rice bowls and grilled eels during the day.

Even though I was chopping into pieces in a disgusting manner, my body devoured all but the bones of a large roasted megillob all by itself.

When Sosha lifted the empty bowl away, a bottle of red liquid next to it was thrust out into the empty space.

“Don’t forget to drink this too. Feild.”

sure. Sure. Lily Nunna.

[Role playing activates.]

“I don’t drink alcohol.”

“Heh, there’s no way Feild’s tastes can be respected, right? drink. Or should I give you an order?”

“ugh… .”

Why are you bickering about what type of alcohol you drink or not about?

Even though it seemed like she was going to lose her temper with my body that kept saying it hated it like a child, Lily chose to take the good path.

The only race is Eummaida, and there are almost no saints.

I will correct the titles that have been used so far. From now on, Lily Nunna will not be Nunna, but Lily Maman.

Mite, Lily Maman. Me baby. Milk tank. Mite.

My mouth became obedient and I reluctantly took the cap off the transparent bottle.

The strong smell of alcohol wafted out in all directions.

“… … Umm.”

For a split second, I saw Sosha licking his lips regretfully.

But I desperately pretended not to see it.

Fortunately, Lily didn’t seem to notice.

My body lifted the bottle to my mouth and gulped down the red liquid in one gulp.

As if I wasn’t lying when I said I didn’t like alcohol, as soon as the orc’s tears entered my body, I felt extremely bitter.

They say that when life is bitter, alcohol feels sweet, and when life is bitter, alcohol feels bitter.

What a life as sweet as honey you have lived so far. This pale guy.

While I was holding the bottle and taking a swig, two excited sighs sounded next to me and in front of me.

It was Lily and Sosha’s. The reason was obvious even without looking.

Lily got excited when she saw my neck moving,

Sosha says that something precious disappears like that.

In the story, the treatment of the alcohol called Orc Tears is explained in passing as something that cannot be drunk even if the emperor of that empire wants it, so the reaction of Sosha, a woman who loves alcohol, was natural.

After emptying the entire bottle containing the orc’s tears, I placed the bottle down on the table.

As soon as I was ready to put it down, Lily urged me on.

“Okay, if you’ve eaten everything, shall we go now? Feild? I have to do some final grooming before I go, so please follow me quickly.”

“Ah… Wait.”

“Sosha? We’ll just leave now~. Have a good night.”

“… huh? hmm. Yes.”

Sosha, who received Lily’s greeting, nodded hesitantly.

I got up from the chair and left, following Lily.

As I was leaving the restaurant, I turned my head to check where I was, and as I expected, Sosha was there, glaring at the bottle containing Orc’s tears with eyes blazing with desire.
