Chapter 48: A Tour (1)

it was obvious that Amy was trying to tempt her customers into going for the monthly pass. Giving out many reasonings after another that would convince many to take up the quest.

Of course, one can refuse such an offer. However, the idea of having free accommodations and usage of facilities, food and also the ability to gain equipment when one earns more gold than needed, would make many feel pressured to go for the former option.

"So what will it be?" Amy stood behind the front desk as she gave off a pleasant and welcoming smile. "I'm sure you won't regret it if you join us!"

"...Hah. 'You won't regret it if you join us'?" Greld repeated the words in an angry tone. "I'm sure many would regret it, seeing that you're scamming them out of their gold!"

"...Ah! Mr Greld...!" Frey hurriedly turned to Greld in a hasty manner in hopes of being able to calm down him.

"Oh, dear customer. Don't get too angry. As I have said, we don't scam people here. The 50% of gold earnings are fair game as we provide with our customers the very best experience in Lavida's hotel. It is a reasonable exchange, yes?"

"Reasonable exchange?" Greld clicked his tongue. "I'll have you know-"

"Greld... Could you please calm down?" Shinto said calmly as he turned towards Amy. "We would consider this, however, I don't think it'll be fair for us to just decide here, right?" he said. "We haven't tasted the food, seen the accommodations and facilities yet. So how are we able to decide now?"

"Hmm, I see. You're worried that the things we provide might not be up to your tastes? Of course, we provide a free tour for those who are new here," Amy replied. "However, only for those who are new here," she pointed towards Greld. "He would be required to stay here in the lobby while you two are on the tour. He is welcomed to leave the hotel as he please."

"What? What is the meaning of this? I haven't been on this 'tour' thing you said!" Greld said angrily.

"But you are not new yes? Mr. 'Greld'. You have been here before and have thrown a tantrum here that resulted in immediate expulsion from the hotel. You should be grateful that our management team didn't ban you from here," she said. "Now then, shall we go on the tour now? I am not sure if you have heard, but, that man has a bad reputation. He is known for poisoning those who ate his food."

"...Hah. That's bullcrap! Why would I poison those who eat my food?" Greld gritted his teeth. "You nobles shouldn't go around spreading false rumours, isn't it already enough you ruined my business?"

"My, Mr Greld, you say it was false rumours? You should think that again, you have given many of your customer's food poisoning that day, yes? So what right do you have to say it's not false?"

"You nobles sabotaged me!"

"And on what grounds do you have to say that? You have no proof, yes?" Amy said.

"It's clear as day you guys did it to get me out of business!"

"My, how about you take this to the baron in charge of this town if you want to continue? Now, dear customers. Shall we get going?" Amy turned towards Shinto and Frey as she began making her way out of the front desk.

"Uhh... Master? I'm not sure about this... Weren't we going to challenge the hotel to a cooking battle? What's up with this considering stuff?" Frey whispered to Shinto in a concerned tone. "Why are we going on this tour? And what's up with this Amy character? She seems... So suspicious."

"Just follow my lead. We'll still go with the plans, I just need to know what this hotel has up their sleeves before we proceed," Shinto whispered back as he followed after Amy.

"Then what about Mr Greld?"

"Since you're near him, whisper to him to wait outside, we'll be done soon."

"...Alright."

...

Footsteps rang through the hallway as Amy lead the two around the hotel for a tour. The first place she took them to was the hotel's restaurant which was on the second floor.

"Here is where our customers get food. We serve a three-set course meal every day at set times. Eight to ten in the morning, one to three in the afternoon and seven to nine in the night."

"Can we taste test the food here?" Shinto asked.

"Sadly you are not able to. If you want to eat the food served, then you will have to take up the monthly pass, pay for accommodations or book a spot in the restaurant outside of our set times to eat, of course, you will have to pay."

"Oh? Then how much does the food cost here if you are to book?"

"The price of the food ranges from 10,000 to 50,000 gold."

Shinto coughed a little as he heard the price. "I see..."

"Yes. If you were to go for the accommodations or monthly pass the cost of food will be covered. So there is nothing to worry about it," Amy said as she continued on. "Now moving onto the accommodations-"

Just as Amy took a step forward, Shinto called out to Amy. "Ah wait, I still have a few questions regarding the restaurant."

"Huh? What of it?" she turned towards Shinto.

"What is the skill level of the chefs here?"

"The senior chef's skill level are all advanced level 2 and above," she said.

"And intermediates?" he asked.

"Level 7 and above."

"I see," Shinto nodded his head. "Then about the food served here? What do they serve?"

"For food, we serve a variety of food such as pastries, dishes usually only served to nobles and the like," Amy explained. "We also serve seafood on special occasions. So, does this answer your question? Shall we proceed to the accommodations?"
