My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon Chapter 67:

Grilled Squid And Hotel Hatotsuki

"Master, master! Who was that girl just now!?"

As soon as Serai-san returned, she imdiately asked .

"Yeah, she's Shark."

I answered Serai-san's question concisely.

"Yeah, she's Shark (Snap) No way! She was a cute girl, wasn't she? Ruu! Master might be a flirtatious guy! What should we do!?"

"Ugh Ugh~!!"

Hey, stop it! Is Serai-san supporting our love story or getting in the way??

"Hey, I'm not lying! She's a Trident Survival Ga Circle mber, a group that plays survival gas in the dungeon. Her nickna is Shark. We t in the dungeon and just run into each other here too!"

"Master might be saying that, but what do you think, Shizu?"

Serai-san, who had transford into a reporter-like deanor, turned her imaginary microphone towards Nina-san.

"Well I'd say it's safe"

"Ohh!?"

As expected of Nina-san. She understands well!

"Why, how?!"

However, Serai-san's words had stirred up anxiety in Ruu looked utterly confused. Poor thing.

"Well, you see It's all because of that grilled squid you're holding! (Slap!)"

"Ohh!"

"What on earth does that an, Detective Shizucchi!?"

Huh, huh?

"Hehehe well, you know. If you try to woo a girl with hot grilled squid, it's going to reek of squid and ruin the mood!! (Zubish!!)"

"Whoa! That's a brilliant deduction, Detective Shizucchi! But, um Master might be a pervert trying to woo girls with stinky hot grilled squid!"

Hey now!

"Co onnn! Both Maachi-chan and Shizu-chan, stop teasing Coach so much!"

Huh? Oh, yeah, I guess I was being played with.

" So, why do you have grilled squid, Master?"

"Well, I got it from Shark, who was here until just now. She gave it to , even though I didn't ask for it. Maybe it was a friendly gesture since we know each other from the dungeon?"

"Oh, I see But that grilled squid looks freshly cooked and delicious. Can I have a bite?"

"Oh sure, go ahead."

(Chomp) "Hmhm, oh, this is tasty!"

"Ehh~! Then I want so too! Ah~n (munch, munch) Mmm, delicious!"

Nina-san and Serai-san bit into my grilled squid that I held in my hand. Nina-san devoured the emperador fish, and Serai-san polished off the remaining pieces.

I had been troubled about what to do with it after having ice candy, but I certainly didn't expect this grilled squid to be devoured by beautiful college girls rather than .

"Coach, I want a bite too"

"Oh, sure, Ru, go ahead. Be careful. It might be hot."

(Munch!) "Hofuhofu! Ooh it's hot!"

Yeah, I guess the body of the squid was still hot. Alright, it's my turn.

(Bite) "Gubil Mufumufu! Nngh! It's hot! but it's delicious!"

"Nnffufu!"

[Munch, munch]

Amidst the slanting sunlight on the beach, the four of us shared a plate of grilled squid harmoniously, much like sharing a bowl of noodles. We passed it around with smiles, and for so reason, the distance between us and the girls seed to have grown even closer during that mont.

..

7:00 PM, Hotel Hatozuki, Suppon Room.

"I'm back Ahhh I'm so hungry!"

"Ah that was such a nice bath."

"Coach, sorry for making you wait~"

Oh, the lovely ladies returning from their bath.

We arrived at Hotel Hatozuki around 5:00 PM after leaving the beach. Nina-san drove us from the beach to the hotel. So, even though it was a short ride, I had the pleasure of sitting in the back seat next to Ruu, with Nina-san and Serai-san in the front. It felt like a king's ride.

Hotel Hatozuki isn't incredibly tall like a mountain, but it's a 5-story hotel situated a bit outside the city at an elevated position. The sign has a neon glow with a scent of the Showa era. I thought Nina-san and the others might have reserved a more luxurious inn-like place, but it seems they considered my wallet to so extent.

Of course, Hotel Hatozuki has hot springs. We enjoyed the abundant natural spring water, said to be the highest in Honshu.

But here's the most important thing, guess what? Our room, shared by and three college girls, is the sa! Boom! Pow pow~!!

In a family-sized room, Ruu, Nina-san, Serai-san, and I all sleep side by side on futons. Kuu~u!! This act of taking Serai-san, who was troubled by a stalker, into my ho is highly appreciated.

(Knock, knock, knock)

"Excuse . I'm here to prepare your dinner~."

"Oh, yes, please, and thank you~."

And as if they were waiting for our return, dinner trays are brought in. Yes, this ti we'll have dinner in our room. The maids bring the dishes to our room like this.

"Ohh~ now this is extravagant"

"Wow, amazing!"

Each tray presents beautifully grilled Ise lobsters split in two, instantly capturing our attention. The aroma is mouthwatering. Along with soup and pickled vegetables, we even got diced steak. Mmm, it looks delicious. Additionally, there's an impressive boat-shaped sashimi platter, ready for us all to enjoy together.

"If you need anything, please let us know via the intercom."

"Oh, thank you very much. (Click)"

The responsible adult I am, I don't forget to tip the maid. And since they're also coming to set up the futons after dinner, I need to prepare the tip for that too.

"Alright, please, Coach."

"Oh, thank you "

Although Ruu doesn't drink alcohol, she pours a bottle of beer for as the other three enjoy theirs. Hold on a mont, Seraii-san. You seem to be engrossed in the sashimi platter in front of you, but isn't it the disciple's duty to pour alcohol for the master??

"Well then, how about Coach leads the toast"

"""Sure"""

Huh, I didn't think about that. Hm-hmm, well, alright.

"Um cough. Well then, let's raise our glasses and make a toast to everyone's health and happiness. Cheers!"

"""Cheers!"""

As we raise our glasses and clink them, cheers resound. Everyone is smiling. And their yukata-clad figures after the bath are dazzling.

"Alright, Master! Thanks for waiting~ (Pitter-patter.)."

Exactly! Serai-san, I've been waiting for this!

"So, Coach, which one are you going to start with? Everything looks so delicious~"

Yeah, I'd be happy to eat together with Ruu, but her excitent is still ongoing. She seems to want to eat in the sa order as .

"Hmm, everything looks so good. What do you want to start with, Ruu?"

"Um um! How about the clear soup?"

As I lift the lid, there's clam clear soup. Its gentle aroma wafts, and my stomach tingles.

"Ahh~ this slls so good. Alright, let's dig in then"

"Yes, here goes (Sip, sip.)"

"Ruu-chan, that's great! We're matching with Coach"

"We're showing off again"

"Huh huh sothing like that (Blushing)"

Truly, they're such good friends. Ruu, Nina-san, and Seki-san. I hope they can continue to smile like this from now on.
