The Other World Dining Hall

Cohage was looking around with Kyorokyoro as he was lit by the light of the full moon about to come directly above him.

(Is there somewhere or not? I can't seem to come...)

In Kohage's ear, you can hear the sound of an array mixed with the sound of the wind...

Ahhhhhhhhhh......

Sad, resentful voices of resentment for the world, and the sound of clothes rubbing strangely in your ears, even though it should be hideous.

(Definitely. The people who have been missing have gone to that Necromancer...)

I'm relieved to remember the first time I met him.

Behind the empty eye hole of a woman's necromancer, who was haphazardly beautiful but had no only eyeballs, was a curse on what lived.

About one or two people a few years, I heard there would be travelers who would go missing on this street muscle.

But I didn't think it was a big problem.

I don't have enough money to hire an escort like Kohage, and my life is in danger.

Once you go to the liquor store for information on the road, do it. There will be a pack of wolves on that street muscle. But that street muscle is safe because the adventurer broke the nest of the child ghost (Bubble). It seems that the couple of horrible cannibals (Home) who were on that street muscle have recently disappeared, so there's a lot of noisy talk going on.

Compared to that, one person a few years would never pull the poverty lottery that way.

Kohage decided to go down this street without even thinking about becoming the wings of an oversized poverty lottery.

(Ha, maybe... I'll only be out on a full moon night...)

Look up at the sky. of darkness for a long time... a full moon glowing in heaven, said to strengthen the power of death.

Even in the small town of my hometown, it was normal for an apprentice of the temple to go to sleep in a graveyard on a full moon night.

The powerful dark magic of the full moon can turn just a corpse into a terrible immortal.

(I can't believe the Necromancer was such a horrible thing...)

frightened by the Necromancer, who would still be looking for a Cohage, trembling with his body.

When I was a kid, the ghost (oops) that went to see the neighborhood with the bad kids when I heard that a traveler had died around the town entrance was more "I don't care".

He didn't do anything under the cliff where he slipped his leg and died, he just stood blurry with a clear body.

Well, that was creepy, and I thought it was scary, but then I was many times scarier if I'd dropped an oversized fist bone and let him eat a sermon, and the ghost disappeared right after the witch in town.

But not the first Necromancer I've seen in my life. It's like something else... a monster.

From the outfit, it was probably the princess of the aristocracy who died around here in the time of the Evil God War, when humans and demons were fighting over fierce territory.

Yeah, I've heard that dead spirits who stay in this world for decades or hundreds of years just because of resentment will eventually steal and kill even the Silver Mark Mochi or the witch, who is in charge.

It was obvious that the magic of the hand had no connection with the handling of the knife but a little bit, and that it was no match for Kohage, who was nothing more than a businessman.

(Hey, whatever. I can't seem to follow him...... what the hell!?

Cohage realizes that he was desperately looking for something to rely on the full moonlight.

In the presence of a black door, with a painting of a cat.

(Hey, why are you here... wait, you're about to disappear!?

Almost at the same time that the full moon finally plugs into Jomtien, the door slowly fades.

If you keep going like this, you'll disappear as soon as you can.

(Ya, yabe!?

If I don't jump into that door right now, I'm sure I'll be cursed to death by the Necromancer before I get my morning.

Following that intuition, which turned his head, Cohage opens with his hands on the door at once.

As the door opens with the sound of a bell called chillin 'chillin', it jumps inside and closes thoughtfully.

At the same time as the door closes with a loud noise, a hip-slipped cohage enters the front of the door.

"Ha, thank God...?

I am relieved that the floor is made of warm trees, not rock or earth, but a floor in which the hands of men are obtained.

I don't know where this is.

It was dark, but there are certainly signs of living humans, and the signs of the dead do not even feel fine dust.

That's all I need now.

Cohage exhales a sigh of relief, which leads to the door.

At the same time I thought it was helpful, my hips are falling out and I can't stand, and my tiredness keeps pushing me closer.

Then before long, Cohage started snoring and the sound echoed in "Different World Dining Room".

"... who is this?

Sunday, the only holiday in this store.

In the morning, the shopkeeper, who came down slower than usual to turn on the lights in the dining room, brought them to the door and noticed a young man snoring.

"... you've found the door in the middle of the night and you've been lost...?

Solid clothes for mountain walking...... Japanese clothes. I lowered my knife to whether it was for personal protection or not, the shopkeeper somehow perceives the situation in its appearance reminiscent of the epochs and warring times.

Yesterday, after handing the last customer a beef stew and dropping off the employee returning...... totally late at night in the other sensation.

The door seems to disappear from the other world at about 12 o'clock, so it would have gotten mixed up with even a few gaps and the time to say.

"... hmm? In the morning...?

With that in mind, a man wakes up when he realizes his surroundings have become brighter.

"It kind of seemed like it was getting weirdly bright late today...... yeah?

A man with a sleeping face notices the shopkeeper and leans his neck strangely.

And the owner.

"... Welcome. Welcome to the Western Cat."

I decided to treat him as a guest for now and greeted him slowly.

Then often.

(... a meshi shop in another world, hey...)

Cohage was slowly thinking about the future as he drank the iced water that was given to the owner, who would be 10 years older than Cohage, who said he was the owner of this store.

Since then, Kohage was taught to be a mesi shop in a different world where his lost place only opens once every seven days.

What a strange story, but this is still a store that's been around for about 50 years, and they've been doing business with people from different worlds like Kohage for 30 years.

Then, when Cohage told us about this situation in Cohage… how lucky he was to meet a horrible Necromancer, he was surprised that there were very few immortals in the other world.

And I told you.

- That's been a lot of trouble for you.

Raw Hate and today is usually a day off. There are only a few things you can make, but still eat something if you like.

The moment they said that, Cohage's belly rang.

I don't think I've eaten anything since morning after fleeing with my life last night.

It is also logical to be hungry.

So Cohage decided to sweeten to the favor of the store owner.

Whatever you do, you can't do it for free.

Fortunately, I carry around dozens of gold coins and silver coins as a stockpile when I have problems with gold, wrapped in cloth, and constantly applied to my body without letting go of my skin.

Kohage ran out of words to the shopkeeper that it could be free, and eventually decided to pay for one piece of silver coin, making him an official guest of the other world cafeteria.

And.

"Thank you for waiting. It's a salt grill of autumn fish. Miso soup utensils are fried radishes and oil."

Before Kohage, dishes from different worlds are placed.

"It's kind of extravagant, master."

I don't flatter the dishes lining up there, I seriously think so, says Kohage.

That was a long way off the mesh of a regular mesh shop known to Kohage...... it was so lavish that it seemed to work even when it came to aristocratic mesh.

The mesh served in the smaller jar looks white and glowing in the light from the ceiling, and smells good from the brown juice that raises the hot air on its side.

Yellow salted vegetables served just a little on a small plate also look good.

And more and more placed in front of Cohage are those that bake a black and silver mixed fish like a knife, with a brown scorch.

I guess this is what the shopkeeper calls a salted fish grill called 'Samma'.

On the side is a bit of moistened white snow and green fruit.

"I'd appreciate it if you could say that. Eat the autumn fish by hanging the soy sauce in the red bottle there.

Meshi and miso soup are also substituted. Please tell me if you don't have enough. Then take your time. "

In that case, the owner returns to the back kitchen to clean up.

And later, Cohage was left behind.

"Come on, you want some..."

Unpatient with the delicious looking mesh that raises the hot air, Cohage quickly grabs the chopsticks and takes them to a meal.

"First...... oh, yummy"

I'll grab a jar with brown juice and try it.

The salty juice stains the belly of a tired cohage.

The ingredients inside are thinly chopped and simmered oh and something finely chopped bright wheat color.

They both smoke juice well and can't wait to taste the juice along with the original flavour of the ingredients when they are chewed up.

Cohage reaches out to Meshi in an unexpected way.

White rice that would have just been taken at this time of year.

That caught me...... surprised me.

(Why... isn't this guy "sweet" for a long time!?

The mesh in the other world was slightly sweet.

Besides, usually, the softer the Cohage is compared to the rice it eats, the sweeter it bites.

This mesh and juice alone is a treat.

Unexpectedly, Cohage eats a meal of meshi without juice.

"Store owner! I'm sorry, I need a replacement for the mesh and juice!

"Yes, sir. Wait a minute."

In response to Cohage's call, the store owner immediately brings a replacement mesh and juice.

Soon Kohage tries to get his hands on it... notice.

Oh, no. I need to eat fish yet.

Cohage sees a plate with fish he's never seen before.

Elongated, silver fish with a knife by the way and a brown burn.

It looks like a fish with a lot of fat on it, and smells like cute baked fish fat.

(This could be...)

Thus, Cohage, who thought of something, drinks a prayer and stretches out his chopsticks to the fish.

Is it a good way to put the knife in, the fish comes off the bone lightly?

Chopstick pinched, white fish body.

Bring it to your mouth... Kohage is convinced of its flavor.

(Definitely! This is Fish of the Sea!

Yes, what the shopkeeper has put out was a very valuable 'fish of the sea' in the mountainous country, home of Kohage.

That fish is a great thing to have less bones and a lot of fat. It can be taken in mountainous countries, it tasted remarkably different from river fish.

Besides, is it a good way to cook it. That fish is well through the fire but has not lost any water and is soft.

The moderately scorched skin is fragrant and that's delicious again.

(Kolya, it's so refreshing!

Unexpectedly, he meshes again.

Meshi proceeds with just a few fish.

After all, the mesh ran out again before I ate half the fish.

"Store owner. Take your place!

"Yes sir... oh customer, the autumn fish is delicious when you squeeze in the juice and eat the radish grate with it too.

And try a little soy sauce over there. "

The shopkeeper also learned that he came to Kohage with a new bamboo dish... and advised him to eat more delicious autumn fish.

"Oh, yeah?

Kohage also thinks it's better to follow what the store owner has to say when it comes to the mesh here, and obey honestly.

Hang the fish with the juice squeezed with green fruit and place the vegetable moisture down on top.

Then take the red bottle and lean gently.

Then black juice emerges from the tilted vessel.

It slowly dyes the white vegetables black and spreads over the silver fish.

"Then..."

In contrast, Cohage puts up his chopsticks.

Slowly pinch it up, carry it to your mouth, and stop.

(What the hell!? That's better than just now!

Fish...... meat on samma's fat and fragrant skin.

And there is no sweetness, refreshing sudachi juice and a slightly bitter diced oloci, and more importantly, a shoyu with unique flavors and salt.

The moment they join, Samma turns into something else.

Yummy. Just even, yummy.

No other thoughts come to mind, Cohage eats Samma abruptly and Meshi.

(That was too cheap for one silver coin...)

It's no exaggeration to say it's the best treat I've ever had in my life.

It wasn't long before I ate it.

"... Phew. I ate. I ate."

Finally, he eats another meal of meshi with salted vegetables and juice, and Cohage gently puts the chopsticks down.

When my stomach swells like this, I feel like the fear I felt yesterday fades.

"Whoa! Store owner, you took care of me! I'll leave the money here!

Place one silver coin on the table while thanking you for that.

"Ah! Wait a minute!

That's how I tried to leave, and the shopkeeper drops by in a bit of a panic.

In that hand, a bag of brown paper.

Give that to Cohage, I say.

"Take this, please. Grilled rice. The utensils are plums, kelp and salt nigiri. I put more pickles in it, so eat it at noon."

"... okay?

Cohage inquires as he receives it unexpectedly due to a truly difficult response.

Well, I appreciate the lunch, but I thought that samma's salt grill alone was worth more than one piece of silver coin.

"Yeah well. That's 1,000 yen... one silver coin. Then I'll take it too much."

But it doesn't seem to be the case for store owners.

"... ok. Thank you."

"Yes, come back to the store. Now Saturday if you can."

That's how I greet you frankly and break up nicely.

As Cohage opened the door and went outside, there was a clear autumn sky.

"... I thought it was only half a day."

If you get caught, you will definitely be chased by a dying necromancer, fleeing for your life and eating a wonderful morning mesh from another world.

That's all that happened in just half a day.

Thus now, Cohage lives in this way with a much filled belly.

What an event that made me feel like I was unlucky in my life.

"... oh, it stays right. Good, good."

Naturally, though, the Necromancer wasn't interested in Kohage's luggage at all.

Collect the merchandise and luggage that had been thrown out yesterday to escape.

"Come on, we have to get to the city before sundown."

I get a lot busy when I get to the city.

Even if business starts tomorrow, we must report to the Temple about the Necromancer.

Appearing only on the eve of the full moon, knowing the existence of a terrible Necromancer, it will move not to crusade as a temple that considers roughly all the immortals to be enemies to be destroyed, and that way this street will be safe.

At least no one should die playing wild boarding there on a full moon night.

(Maybe it's a good idea to go there again sometime)

I don't know when the next time will be more than I am traveling for merchandise and gold.

But if you ever cross this road again someday, let's go as normal guests this time.

Kohage was so determined that he swallowed his sauce and spit.
