Chapter 29: Extra Edition: The Saint's Gourmet Journey

Extra Edition: The Saint's Gourmet Journey

Hello everyone!

As always, it's Tiana, the MeTuber!　

I am currently at the entrance to Loyang Market in the Royal Capital!

The royal capital is the administrative center.

Of course, there is a big market.

In terms of market size, the second largest city, Icasa, is larger.

It's a port town, so seafood is a specialty.

But the selection of food at the stalls in the capital's market is different from Icasa's.

So, today!

We actually walked around eating at Loyang Market!

I'd like to introduce a variety of things to you all!

So...let's go!

・

・

・

The origin of the name Loyang Market seems to come from the previous kings.

It seems like he's the one who organized this market.

Oh! As we talk, I can already smell something nice!

That's... skewers, a classic dish from another world!

What kind of skewer is this?

Let's take a look!

This is... meat!

The game didn't say what kind of meat it was.

For now, let's buy some and eat!

Onii-san, please give me five!

Eh!? Bonus!?

Thank you!

So, I got 5 extra bottles as a bonus!

Wow, things are off to a good start!

Today is good luck

Well then, let's get started!

Yoshaaa.

Delicious!

I don't know what kind of meat it is, but it's delicious!

It has a bit of an animal smell, but the sauce is great!

Onii-san, what kind of meat is this?

Tabboa meat?

Ah, it's a monster that often appears on the plains.

It looks like a wild boar

There are hunting quests requested by the guild too.

The hunted monster must be circulating in places like this.

The sauce also covers the meat's odor, which is great.

This is definitely Yoshiya's sauce

Yoshiya's sauce is good.

America's first Japanese-style teriyaki sauce!

The charred sauce makes the meat fragrant, so you'll be able to eat it all in no time!

By the way, if you eat skewers, your HP will recover.

And before I knew it, I had finished eating it all.

Let's move on to the next one!　

Oh! They're making some mysterious stir-fry dish over there.

Let's take a look!　

Onee-san, what is this?　

Wassa... What is Wassa?

Ah, I see.

It's like pilaf.　

I use buttery oil like my parents' enemy.

What are these rice-like grains?

It seems that rice is cultivated in this world as well.

Ah, rice is rice after all...　

The ingredients are what look like chopped vegetables that are tossed in one by one.　

The rice is fried in a flat, circular iron plate.　

Yes, there's a mysterious red powder and a mysterious brown powder.　

The flavor is unknown

Onee-san, can I have one portion please?

Wow!

I got a heaping bowl of it.

Thank you, Onee-san!

It's so filling that it's a little overflowing!

Now, let's try it!　

Mushaa!　

Delicious!

It's spicy!　

This is...dry curry rice!

It's spicy, but the buttery stuff they put in like a revenge on my parents does a great job.

Even though it's spicy, it still has a mild flavor!　

Still, I think it's a lot of calories!

The bowl is piled high with food!

The mysterious vegetables thrown in at random also have a great texture!

This is definitely going to be a smash too!

Munch... Munch...　

*burp

Ah, excuse me　

Before you know it, you've finished it!

Thank you for the meal!　

Let's try next!　

Oh dear!

That lively place is a bar!

Basically, the bar is open from the morning.

The soldiers on the night shift often come in early in the morning.　

Shall we go and grab a drink at the bar?　

The bar is lively even in the afternoon!　

Here, you can enjoy a grand drink standing at the counter!　

Master! I'd like the best drink in this shop, please!

Also, please give me some snacks!　

Well, the moment I entered the bar, the customers were surprised.　

Is it rare to see a woman drinking alone in the middle of the day like this?　

No, there are usually female customers.

Why are you surprised?　

Oh, while we were doing that, the drinks and snacks have arrived!　

Well then, cheers!　

Hmm... hmm... hmm... pfft!!!　

Mmmmmmm... the best!　

Delicious!

Alcohol is definitely delicious!

What is this sake?　

Master, what kind of alcohol is this?　

Oh, it's ale　

It's no different from any other bar in town.

In the game, it was not clear what kind of alcohol was available in the taverns in the royal capital.　

It was surprisingly normal!

By the way, it's pretty cold!

Refrigerators made using magic stones are so convenient!　

What are the snacks...?　

This is...!

Salty beans or something!

It's fried in oil!

It's crunchy!　

So good!　

Crunch!

Gulp!　

Ah so good!

The cheers keep going!　

Master, can I have another?　

Wow! I'm going to splurge and have two drinks today!

Huh? What the hell are you guys looking at?!

I'm not showing you anything!　

Come over here and have a drink!

Huh? Onii-san, are you a soldier who just finished a night shift?

Thank you for your hard work♪

Night shift is tough, isn't it?

You're doing your best for the citizens.

Thank you as always ♪

Alright! Today! To all the soldiers here!

I'll treat you!

Guys! Let's drink!!

Cheers!!

・　

Oh shit　

I drank a little too much!　

Let's pull ourselves together and resume our food adventures!

I'm kind of hungry now.

Come to think of it, I haven't eaten anything yet!

Let's go for ramen! Ramen!

There's no way there's ramen in another world, you idiot!　

Ahh!! I want to eat ramen! I want to eat ramen!　

If possible, I would like to eat ramen with thick pork bone noodles, lots of garlic, vegetables, and sea bream!　

Ahh!! If I think about it I'll get withdrawal symptoms!!!　

…Oh, I remember now

I had some prepared ramen noodles in my inventory.　

Alright, let's eat!　

Eating ramen in the middle of the market is the best!　

Would you like garlic?　

Thank you for the extra garlic, extra vegetables, and extra ciabatta caramel!

Slither, slither, slither...　

Delicious!　

I forgot when I made this ramen, but it's delicious!

Well, I put it in the item box so it should be fine!

I was able to take it out fresh from the oven!

I did get a little burned while taking it out though!　

I got burned though!　

Slurp...chomp...slurp...gulp!　

Mmm, thank you for the meal!　

After you've finished eating, the dish goes in the item list...swoosh!　

Well then!

I ate ramen!

The food tour continues!

Burp　

Huh? I can still eat more!　

Because all I've been eating is ramen!　

Our fight is just beginning!　

Here we go! Da-da-da-da-da♪　　

One day, rumors spread that Tiana was pregnant.

Apparently she was walking around the market rubbing her big belly.

I had no idea what it was, and I thought the time had finally come.

After hearing the rumor, I hurried back to the inn and found Tiana alone in bed, fast asleep in the middle of the day.

However, no matter how you looked at Tiana's sleeping stomach, it looked the same as usual.

Instead, Tiana smelled very garlicky.

I decided it must have been someone's mistake.

Since there's no other way, I'll just...

I 'held' Tiana, who was sleeping and smelling of garlic.　

It smelled of garlic and my junior was little wilted.

Also, for some reason, Tiana had become popular with the soldiers in the royal capital.

I was impressed that she was so well liked.
