The Archmage’s Restaurant

# 87

Chapter.20 A week in Korea

The appetizing smell that stands out along with the black soybean paste. Steam rising. Peas sprinkled exquisitely on top. And pickled radish next to it.

I picked up chopsticks. Jjajangmyeon is most enjoyable when you rub the noodles together. In that sense, I prefer plain Jjajangmyeon rather than mixed Jjajang on a tray. Personally.

“Why is this black?”

“It’s one of those spicy, delicious foods. I don’t know if it will suit your taste, but it’s what I like. “Try it.”

“oh! Is that so? Is it something you like? Then, even if it doesn’t taste good, I’m okay with it.”

Rurin left a heartwarming line and followed me, slamming her chopsticks into the black bean noodles. It’s so exciting.

“It’s like this… .”

The moment I tried to explain while looking at the steaming Jjajangmyeon. People came rushing into the restaurant.

“Please cooperate for a moment!”

Uddangtangtang! The police suddenly came in. At the same time, several people in the store began to quickly run away. Some of the guests.

As soon as you see your police ID, it means you’ve been stabbed a lot and are involved in some kind of crime.

“Catch them!”

The store was in chaos as the group attacked the police and started running away, obstructing official duties, and the police were also making a mess of the store to catch them.

One of them, a fugitive, began to scuffle with the police, and the aftermath spilled over to this table as well.

As a result, the table is a mess. No, even if it wasn’t a mess, the atmosphere wasn’t ready to eat.

Even if you choose, you have to.

“I’m sorry, please cooperate for a moment!”

To see if the restaurant itself was connected to a crime, the police began checking IDs and briefly listening to each customer’s circumstances.

This is difficult. We get criticized for not being able to eat, but first of all, Rurin and I are stateless.

I was reported missing and never recovered. Because there’s no point in leaving anyway.

And Lulin is a being who should not exist in this world.

Because of that, cooperation is impossible. In that case, it would be better to run away altogether. If it’s unavoidable, you can use Lulin’s spirit magic, but it’s impossible to eat at this restaurant anyway since such a commotion has occurred.

In that case, it’s best to just leave.

“Do you have any mana left to teleport Lulin?”

“Are there any left?”

“Then let’s go back to the hotel.”

“Is that necessary? Those guys are so annoying that they drop their food on the floor. all… !”

“Hold on, hold on, this is not where we live, so there’s no need to make a fuss.”

“Hmm, I understand!”

Lurin nodded and hugged me. At the same time, vision darkens.

Running away was no problem. However, there were many problems as I failed to eat Jjajangmyeon twice.

At times like this, I wonder if I’m under some kind of curse that prevents me from eating black bean noodles. Every time I go to a store, something that is difficult to experience usually happens.

I felt a little dumbfounded, so I laid down on the bed. The bed is incomparably softer than in the other world.

Then Lurin jumps along. Jumping on the bed and falling asleep is Lurin’s recent daily routine.

“You, you. Can’t I take this bed with me when I go back? “I think it’s better than what the dwarves made.”

“Hmm, there must be a better bed than this, right?”

“Oh oh! Is that so? Then let’s take it and go!”

“Uhm, I’ll buy it later.”

“I agree!”

Well, that much is enough to promise. Because I think it’s better to use a bed in this world too.

It wasn’t of a size that could be summoned, so it couldn’t be used in the past, but taking it directly from this world is a different story.

In addition, the amount of mana that can be contained has increased significantly, so the size of items that can be summoned with summoning magic also seems to have increased.

Lurin seemed to be in a good mood and began to roll around on the bed, shaking the blues. But I’m still hungry. The time is approaching sunset.

“Let’s go out again.”

You cannot order and eat Jjajangmyeon at the hotel. So I came up with another way. This time, I decided to try delivery and headed to Hangang Citizens Park with Rurin.

The time when the sunset turns red in the western sky. Busy people moving around. In the cityscape on a weekday, I entered the park, enjoying some leisurely time with Rurin.

There were a lot of advertisements for Chinese restaurants in front of Citizens Park Station, so I decided to choose one and went into the park to sit down, but then I headed to a convenience store and bought a mat. I bought drinks and used the phone at the convenience store.

After asking the convenience store to accept the delivery, they even deposited the money and paid for the trouble. The part-time worker was friendly and there were no major problems up to this point.

If you are truly cursed, another problem will arise, so be careful. I settled down and spread out the mat, intending to wait for the delivery to arrive.

Before I knew it, Lurin climbed onto the mat and started dozing off, and I waited for the black bean noodles.

The iron bag arrived quickly. I put Rurin’s head on the mat and headed to the convenience store.

With the help of a part-timer at a convenience store, he receives black bean noodles and sweet and sour pork and returns to his mat. If you have a cell phone, there is no need to go to a convenience store, but without a cell phone, it is difficult to order food in a place where you cannot specify the location.

Thanks to that, it cost me a lot of effort. Of course, such things are trivial. What is important at this moment is that Jjajangmyeon and sweet and sour pork have finally arrived in my hands.

Jajangmyeon, which I failed to eat all day long. Now you can eat it.

There are no variables.

Unless a monster suddenly appears in the Han River.

No, even if a monster appears, they burn it with magic, kill it, and then eat it.

“Lurin wake up. Food has arrived.”

“Ugh, is it finally food? The skin on my stomach is going to get rough. But didn’t you see that before?”

“yes? “Jjajangmyeon all look like this.”

“What a strange guy.”

“I guess that’s true for you.”

I answered half-heartedly and focused on the black bean noodles. I felt like it was an extremely precious food after not being able to eat it in front of my eyes twice already.

When I unwrapped it, steam rose up. The delivery system is amazing. He took out the wooden chopsticks and carefully cut them in two as if he was worshiping them.

“Wooden chopsticks are divided into two parts and used like this. “I know how to use chopsticks, right?”

“Is this it? “I didn’t know because I was stuck.”

“huh.”

Rurin’s first time using wooden chopsticks that had to be split. Immediately apply force and begin to split the chopsticks.

Of course, there is no delicacy. She grabs the chopsticks with all her might and gives her strength to eat. Thanks to this, the chopsticks were broken horribly. Should I say that only the front part broke off?

It’s a miserable failure.

“Why are you like this, you bastard?”

“Why are you doing this!”

Jjajangmyeon is hot. It’s going to explode. However, you cannot make them eat with their hands. I had no choice but to run to the convenience store and buy wooden chopsticks. I’m dying from exhaustion.

“Gasp.”

“Puhahahahaha. “It’s cute when you stick out your tongue.”

After a while, he comes back breathing heavily and Rurin starts to cackle, treating people like dogs. Are you kidding? Who is this because of?

“Okay, I’ll split the chopsticks for you. “I’m starving to death.”

“I’m so hungry too. So I was eating this.”

Rurin had already taken out the sweet and sour pork and was eating it. And that too by hand.

“What? Who among these traitors is a traitor? It’s really too much. I’m trying to get your chopsticks… .”

“I do not know! Eat this. it’s good. “It’s a bit bland, though.”

Rurin puts sweet and sour pork into my stammering mouth. Are you telling me to shut up?

I can’t live. I can’t live. Still, the sweet and sour pork that came into my mouth was delicious. This is the first meal of the day.

“Okay, let’s not talk. Anyway, this is how you mix jjajangmyeon. If you mix it evenly, it will not be completely black but will turn into a nice shiny color. Oooh, nice smell!”

As I admired the smell of Jjajangmyeon, Rurin nodded and copied my actions. Yeah, no problem. The sunset is also at its peak. Lift the noodles with chopsticks.

Then, I looked around for a moment. Nothing happened. The worst thing about this situation is that it rains suddenly. It rained so heavily that it soaked the black bean noodles and sweet and sour pork.

Could it be that the worst-case scenario… .

I looked at the sky without thinking. But the sky was clear.

“Slurp.”

Feeling relieved, I chewed the noodles in my mouth.

My mouth is filled with Jjajangmyeon, which has started to swell a little. When it starts to blow, it tastes just as good as it started. Chunjang’s unique savory taste. And a little greasiness is a characteristic of Chinese cuisine.

Is this the first Jjajangmyeon I’ve had in some time?

Tsk tsk tsk.

Jjajangmyeon automatically continues to enter your mouth. I took a quick look at Rurin and found that she was inhaling without any problems.

“After that, um, it’s my day articulation…” .”

“Yes, in that case, eat the yellow thing in front of you with the yellow thing. “This is a food that should be eaten with that.”

Pickled radish takes away the greasy taste and enhances the savory taste.

As the unique salty yet sweet taste of chunjang spreads in your mouth, chewing on the crunchy pickled radish takes the flavor up a notch.

“Oh oh!”

Lurin picked up a pickled radish with a half-confident look on her face, hesitated for a moment, and then started chewing it. She looked very pleased.

After leaving a decent amount of Jjajangmyeon, I picked up the fried egg that I ordered separately. This is the best when you start to feel a little more grumpy.

And I poured some of the sweet and sour pork into the remaining black bean sauce. Sweet and sour pork with black bean sauce. And sweet and sour pork with sweet and sour pork sauce. And sweet and sour pork dipped only with salt that I bought at a convenience store. Prepare as many as three types.

Each has its own taste characteristics.

Once you eat it with salt, the taste of sweet and sour pork itself comes out best. The closer it is to being crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the closer it gets to this taste, but the place I ordered didn’t seem to put that much effort into making sweet and sour pork.

But sweet and sour pork is basically delicious.

No matter what you do, do the basics.

If you add a little salt, the slightly salty taste harmonizes with the lightness of sweet and sour pork, and you can’t help but chew it in your mouth.

Of course, the sweet and sour pork sauce has its own harmony because of the refreshing taste of the thick sauce itself. Also, Jjajang sauce is just as delicious when eaten with pickled radish as with Jjajangmyeon.

I finished my Wagu Wagu meal to the point where I felt it was worth failing twice. Lulin also had a satisfied face. With a satisfied look on his face, he puts down his bowl of jjajang and shouts at me.

“It wasn’t as good as what you made, but I was hungry so I ate it!”

“Is that so?”

As a result, my cooking is praised. I am grateful. I was thirsty, so I rustled the bag and took out a drink. Two plastic bottles. These are drinks I’ve never seen before. I don’t know the taste. Take the lid off and quench your thirst. I feel refreshed as the cool lemon scent spreads into my stomach filled with black bean paste.

After quenching my thirst, I lay down on the mat. I pass the drink to Rurin.

Rurin also accepted the plastic bottle and drank it down. However, he quickly removes the plastic bottle from his mouth and tilts his head with a surprised face. Of course I thought it was water, but the expression on my face asked why it tasted different. But soon he starts drinking again as if it doesn’t matter because it’s delicious.

“Hey, it’s flowing.”

The drink ran down my lips and under my chin, so I wiped it away.

“If it flows, you can wipe it up.”

He sticks out his face more as if it were natural.

I have nothing to say. Me too, who is carefully wiping it away with my sleeve.

Anyway, after quenching my thirst, I lay down on the mat. Rurin immediately comes over and looks at me while lying down.

And his eyes sparkle as he points across the Han River. There’s something strange about these eyes.

“There are so many things sparkling even though it is night. Light shines here and there. “What on earth are those?”
