At the dinner table, Alice Nakiri discussed the feasibility of this method with Hoshino Sora.
The others also found opportunities to join the conversation, expressing their insights. For a while, the dinner table was filled with an academic atmosphere. They chatted for the entire evening, and by the time they realized it, it was already past ten o'clock.
"It's still early. Let's open the Dimensional Restaurant. I'm a bit unaccustomed to not having guests for so long, and I need to put what I've learned recently into practice to verify it."
Looking at the time on the wall, Yumeko Jabami suggested, stretching her arms. She was currently in a period of rapid growth in her cooking skills, and the theoretical knowledge she had acquired during this time needed to be supplemented with practical experience.
"Agreed, it's still early, we can open the Dimensional Restaurant for three hours tonight, but will there be any customers this late?"
"At least we can entertain the residents of Gourmet Manor; they've accumulated quite a few Gourmet Coupons during this period."
"It's been so long since I heard the customers' chatter; I'm still a bit unaccustomed to it."
"Then let's get to work!"
Watching his wives, who were in high spirits, Hoshino Sora also raised his arms in agreement. The next moment, the group appeared in Gourmet Manor, arriving at the back kitchen of the Dimensional Restaurant.
After a slight adjustment, the 'Resting' sign outside the restaurant changed to 'Open for Business'.
Not long after, a bell rang, and the restaurant welcomed its first customer. The Other World girl, who had become the restaurant's new waitress, immediately went forward to greet the customer.
"Welcome! The first floor is the public dining area, the second floor is a mix of public dining and private rooms, and the third floor is all private rooms. The private rooms on the third floor have a minimum spend, while those on the second floor do not.
May I ask if you prefer to dine alone in quiet or to enjoy the food with everyone?"
She respectfully bowed and gestured with her hand, inviting the customer in. Once inside, the Forest Elf waitress enthusiastically attended to him by his side.
"I like a lively atmosphere; find me a corner seat on the first floor."
Looking at the spacious hall, many beautiful waitresses were walking around, and many seats were already occupied. These were Gourmet Manor residents holding Gourmet Coupons. A rich aroma permeated the air, its source being the back kitchen not far from the stairs.
"What would you like to order?"
Leading the customer to a corner of the restaurant, the Forest Elf waitress handed him the menu, speaking softly.
"Ding-a-ling, ding-a-ling."
The restaurant doorbell rang again. This time, a broad figure entered; the two-meter-wide door barely allowed him to pass through upright.
Seeing the burly warrior clad in black refined iron armor, his face obscured by a helmet, the Slime girl closest to the door stepped forward to greet him, a respectful expression on her face.
"Customers, please come this way. Here is the menu. What would you like to order?"
Following behind the armored adventurer was a woman wearing a snow-white gown, a gold-threaded spiderweb necklace, beautiful long black hair, and pure black wings like an adornment, with goat horns on her head.
This woman exuded a terrifying aura. Especially when her gaze swept over the Slime waitress, it seemed she didn't want her to get too close.
"Lord Feifei, should we choose to sit here?"
"Hmm, this place looks like a newly opened shop, and the surrounding figures are all unfamiliar. Perhaps we can gather the information we need."
Following the waitress, they arrived at a spot near the center. This was a good place to gather information, located in the heart of the crowd. However, not many people had arrived yet, so they would have to wait.
"Just bring anything. Serve all your restaurant's signature dishes."
Without even looking at the menu, Yalbede, the woman beside the black-gold armored adventurer 'Feifei', spoke.
Since their main purpose for coming here was to gather information, the food itself didn't matter much. But to avoid drawing too much attention to themselves, Yalbede still politely ordered a meal.
"Signature dishes? Very well, please wait a moment. Would you like some fine wine?"
"Yes, bring it all."
The adventurer 'Feifei' spoke, his black-gold helmet obscuring his expression. Just then, the doorbell rang again. This time, a group of people entered, led by Hoshino Sora's old friend, Rimuru, the Slime.
Behind him were Rigurd, the Goblin Village Chief, and his little brother, Gobuta.
"It's finally open! It's been quiet for over a month. I thought something had happened, but it turns out you were renovating."
Looking at the splendid new restaurant, Rimuru's eyes were filled with curiosity. He then looked at the beautiful demi-human girl who had come to greet them.
"Let's sit outside today. It's been a long time since we've been out."
Usually, for gatherings, they would choose a private room. But today, they happened to discover the restaurant open on their way home, so they came with just a few people.
Rimuru thought it would be better to chat with people from different worlds in the hall rather than staying alone in a small private room. During the time Hoshino Sora's restaurant was closed, he had been eagerly anticipating its reopening almost every day.
"Owner, a grilled platter and three beers, please!"
Shouting towards the kitchen, Rimuru, led by the waitress, sat down at the table next to the adventurer 'Feifei'. At that moment, the waitress also brought two ice-cold beers to 'Feifei' and Yalbede.
"Is this iced beer?"
Looking at the ice-cold beer in front of him, the adventurer 'Feifei' was clearly stunned. A beer glass made with modern craftsmanship? The golden-yellow liquid looked exceptionally enticing, and the ice cubes emitted a chilling aura.
"That's right, this is our restaurant's specialty, iced beer."
Hearing the Slime waitress's words, the adventurer 'Feifei' fell silent. He could tell this was a product of modern society, made with high precision. Why was it here?
And this beer, the brewing technology of this era couldn't possibly produce such a delicate iced beer. There was definitely something wrong here!
Perhaps by understanding the reason, he could find a way to return to modern society. The owner of this shop was definitely not an ordinary person; it was very likely a 'player' trapped in the game with him!
This glass must be a product of magic.
The adventurer 'Feifei' reasoned logically. Serving beer from modern society in a kingdom in the Other World, the only explanation was that the owner was also from modern society!
It seems he wasn't the only one trapped in the game.
While feeling relieved, a hint of vigilance also arose in his heart. Who was this person, also trapped in the game world?
A friend?
Or an enemy?!
In the hollow eyes hidden beneath the black-gold armor, a flicker of fire seemed to burn. The adventurer 'Feifei' remained outwardly calm, but a storm had already surged within his heart.
"This tastes great! It's completely different from the liquor we have here!
The refreshing taste of the beer makes you want to drink it all in one gulp. The aroma of malt fills the air, and the delicate foam spreads smoothly in your mouth, instantly washing away all fatigue and leaving only coolness and pleasure!"
The Goblin Village Chief next to Rimuru heard the adventurer 'Feifei's' whispered self-talk, smiled, raised his glass, and then spoke these words.
"Indeed, the refreshing taste of iced beer makes you want to drink it all in one gulp. The delicate balance of malt and alcohol brings out an intoxicating flavor.
The beer is clear and smooth, with a rich and lasting foam, exuding a captivating aroma. Taking a sip, the cool temperature permeates your heart, sweeping away the summer heat and leaving you feeling comfortable and pleasant.
And that subtle bitterness and lingering sweetness make you want to savor it endlessly, unable to resist taking one sip after another."
