"Tired."

"No, I've been busy!

"It's already hectic."

After the culinary contest.

We were at a launch dinner party hosted by the culinary guild.

Even when it comes to parties, it's a close to get-togethers organized by cooks and merchants. The figure of the nobleman is chilling, but he talks normally with the cook in a casual way. If it wasn't for that kind of person, I wouldn't be attending such a rude gathering.

Even though the francs say it was just after they ate bribes, they are still eating tons of food. Fran, Corberto, Lydia, Maia, Judith, it's a situation where a few large plates are placed in front of each of them.

They say the famous cooks prepared the dishes, and they're all excellent.

Fran asked for it, too, so you're offering me the dishes I made? Looks like it's already sold out, but it's a fish shaken and roasted with curry powder. I tried to be aware of the fish curry style.

Now meat curry dominates, but you would have found that seafood curry is a good one too.

In fact, a lot of cooks were in front of my cooking and had heated arguments.

There must be more curry dishes with seafood the next time we come.

"Mr. Fran. Long time no see."

"Fermus."

"This time the food was wonderful too"

"You too. It was delicious."

That's where I came to say hello to Fermus, the dragon diner. As young as ever.

He is many times older, but for Fran, he is experienced, strong, and kind enough to cook delicious food. The story of Fran and Fermus plays quite well.

It's amazing how much fun Fermus can still have a conversation with a silent Fran opponent.

"Mr. Fermus. Congratulations on your victory."

"No, no, thanks to a new dish called Curry"

Add Corberto there, too, to talk about today's stalls.

"I was being solicited by the nobles, are you going to be a court cook?

"Ha! I don't have any plans for that at the moment. Because I like to be eaten by a lot of people, and I know I can get them to work other than cooking."

"I see. If you hire Mr. Fermus, you'll want him to be active in combat."

It seems that many of the cooks participating in this contest dream of winning and being held by nobles, but Fermus declined all the stories.

Indeed, if Fermus were on hand, it would be the humanities who would want him to do non-culinary work. Because we know that, it seems, Fermus is being held by a cook in Ichii.

For Fermus in the first place, honor and wealth must be all the more so now.

"Speaking of which, there seemed to be a pretty strong woman, how was that one?

"Red Haired Woman"

"That's right. He was the one who emitted the signs of a strong man, like he didn't want to fight for a long time. That may have been since I met Fran before."

"It was strong."

"Definitely"

That's all Fran and Fermus agree on, I'm sure.

"I was just on a break, and I didn't see her."

"I'm a tall woman with red Zambala hair. My everyday clothes were too unnatural and on the contrary caught my eye. You were staring at me with red brown eyes."

Fermus, wow. Do you remember that much? We only saw that strength and red hair.

"You might as well say yakuza rather than wild. It's the type that is able to instinctively and intellectually preserve the frenzy within itself."

That may indeed be the case. That woman's attitude was, for sure, deliberate.

I didn't get excited to see my strong opponent and get into fights, but rather let out noisy signs from the start to see how they reacted. I don't know why, but I may have made a franc rule.

I smelled like a battle freak, or maybe I just wanted to know what Fran was capable of. Still, at the end of the day, around a surprisingly light pull, it's not like just a battle freak.

"The man I was with was a lot of money."

"... were you there?

Well, Fran was focused on women then. Besides, it is certain that it was less noticeable than a red-haired woman.

"Yes, he's a bone too taller than a woman for a head minute or so, with blonde hair all back. I had a good way of muscular attachment. He wore it somewhat, but it was definitely a warrior's body."

"Heh."

"Is it even with a nigga face? It always felt like I was laughing at the edge of my mouth. It would be a hot type for a woman at night."

"Did you look strong?

"Quite. Not as good as a woman, though. I just think I'm going to have a lot of nerve to see where that woman doesn't change her attitude at all when she shows signs of releasing it. It would be a nasty opponent if we had to fight."

"Ho."

Fran heard Fermus' assessment and apparently was interested in the man as well. I managed to remember the man, arm in arm and started roaring ununh.

But I can't remember.

We've had a couple of conversations, and you forget who they are. I don't know what to say, but I don't think I can remember.

(Do you remember the master?

"Oh. I know your face, too, so the next time I see you, I'll tell you."

(Mm. Please)

Nevertheless, neither Fermus nor Corbert seem to know the identity of that woman.

"Corberto, don't you know who it is?

"Uh, yes, it is. I didn't see it in person, but it's a pretty noticeable look, isn't it? There's no such thing as an adventurer."

That Corberto doesn't know would not be an adventurer operating in Barbora.

"You won't be an adventurer in this neighborhood either. She's the only woman who seems to be standing on her arm. It can't be a rumor."

"I see."

"Well, it's this time of year, and maybe he's an adventurer outside the country. The route from Barbora to Urmut is a human golden route from outside the country."

Tourists looking for Barbora will also want to see the famous Wurmut militant tournament. Conversely, participants in militant competitions often stop in Barbora because they came to Kranzel because of it.

"It's common for adventurers outside the country to get involved in famous adventurers."

"Really?

"Right."

Well, that's an adventurer there, and a lot of Yancha guys.

"Besides, it's only natural to come to the last winner, me or Fran, for the ordinance, isn't it?

"Mm-hmm. Indeed."

Does that mean that woman is a participant in a militant tournament? Strong enemies.
