Two dull knocking sounds rang out.
The izakaya was finally quiet again after a long time.
"Can't you just eat your food properly?"
Aoba took back the teacup that the two had been fighting over and tapped them on the head in an annoyed manner.
"Woo~"
"Aoba-kun is so mean..."
Kasumigaoka covered her head, her eyes red, and looked pitifully at Aoba.
She looked just like a bullied kitten.
"Playing the victim won't work."
Aoba remained unmoved, then tapped on the wooden table in front of Erina Nakiri and said in a deep voice, "Miss Nakiri, are you sure you don't want to contact your family?"
“Ah?! Oh…”
Erina Nakiri straightened her back and nodded slightly: "Thank you for your concern. Someone from Totsuki will come to pick me up."
"That's good. Get some rest when you get back."
As Aoba spoke, she returned to the kitchen.
The illusory panel reappeared before my eyes.
【Aoba】
【Izakaya, Hayashi-i, Sanju-pa-ya (The Only One)】
[Guests: Rize Kamishiro (30), Erina Nakiri (1), Utaha Kasumigaoka (10)]
[Skills: Gluttony (lv3), Cooking (lv3), Speed Memorization (lv1), Super Taste Sense (lv1)]
[Entries: Succubus (Gold), Yin-Yang Harmony (Color)]
"Is it because of the interaction of bodily fluids?"
Aoba was utterly nonsensical in his criticism of this cheat system.
However, the two extra skills were very useful to him.
[Shorthand (lv1): Enables rapid memorization of large amounts of information]
[Super Taste (lv1): Able to distinguish the taste of food and make subtle improvements]
Shorthand allows him to quickly jot down the needs of each customer when the izakaya is crowded.
Needless to say, his super sense of taste is even more of a divine aid to his already level 3 cooking skills.
only……
Both of these skills are related to Erina Nakiri and Utaha Kasumigaoka.
Is this the correct way to use the cheat code?
Aoba shook his head quickly, imagining some terrifying scenarios in the future.
Anyway, he was just an ordinary izakaya manager.
I hope no one will have designs on me.
Is the store manager in?
Yes, welcome.
A hoarse voice came from outside the door.
Aoba brought two glasses of hot beer from the kitchen and placed them in front of Kasumigaoka and Erina.
The two girls knew that the shop manager was about to open for business, so they did not make any further noise to disturb him.
After all, if you can't see the situation clearly, you'll be disliked.
When he pushed open the wooden door... (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated to the previous sentence.)
Outside.
The two guests, who were waiting quietly, both turned their gazes toward Aoba.
"Welcome, gentlemen."
"excuse me."
The woman on the left is wearing a gray trench coat, and her tight-fitting black inner layer makes her look particularly energetic.
At the same time, a standard-issue katana was hanging from his waist.
After scanning Aoba with sharp eyes, he then observed the izakaya behind him.
His expression showed some disdain.
"This is the izakaya you were talking about? It doesn't look like anything special."
"Haha, it looks nothing special, but the food and wine are excellent!"
The beautiful woman on the right is dressed in the same way.
But the same uniform looked different on her.
A little lazy.
With her large, undulating chest and the subtle upturn of her lips, one can't help but feel a sense of goodwill towards her.
"Manager, do you remember me?"
The beautiful woman's movements were wide and sweeping, causing Aoba to instinctively step back to avoid bumping into her.
"Welcome, Miss Fuuka, and this gentleman..."
"Raven feathers".
The tall, slender woman in silver-gray on the left walked into the izakaya without looking to the side.
"Hey, just ignore her."
"Manager, we need to purchase some food and drinks. The quantity might be a bit large, and... we might have a few requirements."
Aoba nodded and smiled: "Don't worry, I will do my best."
"Haha, I knew you were reliable, Mr. Manager!"
Feng Hua grinned broadly and laughed heartily.
Follow Aoba into the izakaya.
Meanwhile, Crow Feather was already looking around the store.
I also glanced at Erina and Kasumigaoka.
The tangible, icy gaze made both of them shiver for no apparent reason.
Is this all you have on your menu?
Raven Feather pointed to the menu hanging on one of the walls.
That scrutinizing gaze was full of disdain.
It's probably just pure luck that this little shop managed to make drinks that satisfied Feng Hua.
"Just order whatever you like."
Although Crow Feather was somewhat impatient with this place, since it was recommended by Wind Flower...
Then she could be a little more patient.
However, if the following dishes fail to satisfy her, don't blame her for being ruthless!
Things that have no value have no reason to exist in this world!
Aoba nodded slightly, then turned her gaze to Fuuka, who casually found a seat and sat down.
"Miss Feng Hua, what would you like to eat?"
The boy's voice was as gentle as jade, calm and peaceful with a gentleness like the spring sunshine.
If you're not going to be in the disciplinary unit anymore, coming to Mr. Manager's place would be a great option!
At least there's plenty of alcohol, and the manager... is quite handsome.
Fuka stared blankly at Aoba and chuckled, "Is there a secret menu item today?"
"Hmm...would you like a hot beer?"
"Hot beer? Looks like I'm really lucky today. And another platter of braised dishes, please!"
Upon hearing the order, Aoba paused, her expression somewhat troubled:
"Sorry, due to some circumstances, we are unable to provide the braised food platter today."
"Is that so? Then I'll just have one of each, like Raven Feather."
Feng Hua didn't think much about it and simply chose to let things take their course.
"Yes, please wait a moment."
After noting down the dishes the two wanted to eat, Aoba went into the kitchen.
The izakaya's kitchen and front hall are separated by only a short curtain.
Sitting at the bar, you can look up and see the owner busy in the kitchen.
This design will make the whole restaurant feel more welcoming.
Looking at the boy bustling about inside, Ya Yu was filled with doubt.
She glanced at the two harmless girls beside her, then looked back at Fuuka.
"Feng Hua, are you sure this store is reliable?"
Her cold, beautiful face was full of suspicion.
Fuka smiled when she heard Yaba's words.
"Don't worry, the food here will definitely not disappoint you."
