Skill Training And Muscle Branching Points
"Hmm, isn't it about ti?"
"Oh, right. Then shall we head out soon?"
Huh, where are we going again?
Since the sli drops they've been diligently collecting in the dungeon can be sold at a good price, if I don't take them to a super sento or sothing to relax and unwind, it'll be like inviting trouble upon myself.
..
So, when we arrived at the super sento, Shark, who was supposed to et us there, was waiting at the entrance, trembling.
"Hey, Machi! I've been waiting out here in the cold for ages!"
"Ugh, Shark. Instead of waiting here, why didn't you just go in if you got here first?"
"No, that won't do. If we all go in separately, they won't accept us all at once. Today, thanks to Jang's treat, we've decided to have a blast to the fullest!"
"Oh, I see. Then let's soak in the hot springs until we turn into boiled octopus, and eat and drink as much as we want, right?"
"Yeah, that's the plan!"
Honestly, these mill-otaku high school girls have no reservations at all. And aren't her brothers and the Trident guys spoiling Shark too much?
Well, we've got the money, so today's a splurge.
Ideally, I'd like to take Ruka and the others to a quaint hot spring inn in the winter. But in the current socio-political climate, you never know what might happen. So, going too far is out of the question. That's why we settled on a familiar super sento for our indulgence.
After enjoying a leisurely bath separately, it's ti for another enjoyable dinner. And now that I've safely returned to being a man, unnecessary troubles have been avoided this ti.
"Alright, I'll have the kalbi! Make it the premium one!"
"Ruu-chan, shall we go for that too?"
"Yeah, Serai-chan."
"Then three orders of premium, please."
"Hmm, Shark took the premium So, I'll go for it. Hmm"
"Wasn't Serai-san not fond of tongue salt?"
"Ah, right. Starting with tongue salt is the way to go!"
As we sit at the table, everyone orders their preferred dishes. Today, alcohol, which we usually refrain from, is also on the nu.
"""Cheers"""
[Gulp]
"(Slurp) Oh, these pig's feet are surprisingly good"
Hey, Shark, don't eat my pig's feet first because the at isn't cooked yet.
I haven't even touched it yet. Well, it's fine. I still have this spicy kimchi to enjoy
"""(Nom, chew Crunch Slurp) Mmm, delicious Since kimchi from a good restaurant is delicious, the at is also tasty"""
"Coach, may I have so too?"
"Of course, Ruu. Let's eat together"
"Hehe, we're getting along well Machi, we can't lose to them, right?"
"Huh? Wait, hold on, Shark! Don't put so much at on all at once!"
"Shut up. The early bird gets the worm"
"Well I guess there's no helping it. Ah, could I have a refill of raw dishes, please?"
And, it was a delightful dining scene, but as we began to grill the at and started eating, the atmosphere changed a bit.
"""(Chew chew chew)"""
"Hmm, what's wrong, everyone? Why so silent?"
"Well um, is it okay to say this?"
"Hehe, didn't find it as tasty as you thought?"
"""Huh?!"""
"Hehehe, yeah. What you guys are feeling right now is the sensation of Hmm maybe it's not as tasty as I thought?'"
"Huh? Well, yeah. (Oh!) Wait, did the master know this from the beginning!?"
"Well, probably. I thought you guys might start feeling that way soon enough."
This is rare, but I couldn't resist teasing everyone with a smug expression.
"Um, Coach. What does it an when the at at the restaurant doesn't taste as good?"
"Well, Ruu, it's probably because everyone's bodies have beco more geared towards athleticism."
"Athleticism?"
"Yeah, everyone's been training and getting stronger in the dungeon. As a result, your bodies have changed to seek higher protein and lower fat, functional nutrients to maintain their newfound strength."
"Huh? But when we eat at the coach's place, the at doesn't taste like this. Oh!"
"That's right. The food I make, and the at the coach uses, are always high-protein, low-fat muscle ats."
"What, so that's why it didn't taste as good as expected. Doesn't this an we're missing out a lot?"
"Hmph Shark has a point. In terms of enjoying gourt food,' you could say that the shift towards athleticism is a loss. However, even if that's the case, you'll gain far more in health and physical potential. (Glare)"
"P-Physical potential (Gulp) S-So, you an we could beco like Sandra-san?"
"Hehehe, that's exactly it, Shark. Right now, you guys are standing at that fork in the road. Will you choose the path of Tough and Healthy Muscles or Unhealthy but Enjoying Gourt Food? And the choice is yours"
"(Nod) I've already decided to beco stronger. So, I don't need that anymore"
"I-I've decided too! I want to beco like Sandra-san! (Nod)"
"So that's what it was A fork in the road of strength was hidden in this al too. (Nod.)"
"(Nod) I want to beco stronger with the coach and everyone!"
Everyone at that mont, having understood the aning, puts down their chopsticks and looks at .
[Ju Pachi Pachi Pachi Boom!!]
And then, the premium kalbi, which had been placed on the grill, bursts into flas, burning bright red.
Did the dicine work a little too well?
Leaving that aside, let's enjoy the dishes we ordered now.
