The Only Swordsman of the Magic Academy - Chapter 51



51 – Dinner

*

“Can’t we just sit down?”

I came to an expensive beef restaurant that three people took pictures of, and I’m playing rock-paper-scissors to decide who will sit next to me.

“You’re out.”

“Could you please be quiet for a moment?”

“That’s not okay.”

“Yes…”

I get rejected right away and step back.

It’s been a while since the meat has already been served, but they’ve been arguing about it for a few minutes, so I haven’t even tried to grill it.

All three of them had good body vision, so they looked at each other’s hands and switched well right before the bet, and the situation was not over as the draw continued.

“Oops!”

“Sheesh…”

“Hmm…”

In the end, Seungri was won by Seoyoon, who was the most skilled at learning swordsmanship recently.

She definitely has a lot of traits related to the use of her body, though not her personal traits, and it’s been a long time since she won.

‘Is the seat next to the teacher so coveted?’

Since all three of them are my students, they may have pretended to be okay on the outside, but I thought that they might have deep respect for me on the inside.

Just as I deeply respect my teacher Eden.

First of all, since I was very hungry, I didn’t tackle any more and sat down with Seoyoon with a smile on her face and started grilling the meat.

Chi Iik-

The smell of meat being grilled on the grill stimulates the salivary glands.

‘It really kills the smell.’

The animals and plants of the other world basically contain mana, and perhaps thanks to that, the taste and aroma are basically better.

Of course, half of me is from another world, so if it’s normal meat, there’s nothing special about it.

In a large company specializing in meat, beef that had been further aged with mana in their own way was only being grilled, but a violent scent was spreading.

Because these meats are several times more expensive than Byeok x Galbi, which was so famous in the world before, I was very excited to see what the taste would be like.

‘It’s a pity that I can’t drink.’

Drinking was originally possible as long as they had a magician’s license, but it is said that no one has ever drank alcohol, perhaps because they are all model students.

It’s OK to drink, but I was a bit skeptical of recommending it to kids who haven’t tried it with their parents yet, and knowing Yu Yi-seol’s drinking habit, I also wanted to prevent accidents.

‘When a child gets drunk, he clings to the people around him.’

It clings to you like a slug, but is Yu Yi-seol in that state taken to the Yu family’s mansion? Especially, it’s hard to even tell their parents that they drank their kid.

Because I sincerely want to decline being branded as an unscrupulous guy who didn’t know what he was trying to do by giving a ignorant kid a lot of alcohol.

“Since it’s all cooked, let’s eat ourselves.”

All three of them came from noble families and had never grilled meat before, so of course it was my responsibility to grill them.

Beef shouldn’t be left on the grill for a long time, so I put it on each person’s plate, and right away, Seon-ah, who was sitting across from me, took a piece of meat, dipped it in sauce, and brought it to my mouth.

“Jun Ha. Oh, try it.”

“Ah-.”

Occasionally, when the two of them go to a meat restaurant, they say they are having a hard time grilling the meat, and they feed it directly, but that’s the case today too, so we naturally accepted and ate the meat.

The meat melted without feeling chewy, and the juices that flowed out spread all over the mouth. It was the most delicious meat I have ever eaten.

It’s to the point where I feel as if I’ve gained a little bit of strength.

[You ate beef with plenty of magical energy. Strength increases by 3% for one hour.]

Looking at the message that popped up in front of my eyes, I guess it wasn’t an illusion.

It wasn’t cooked by a top-notch chef, and even if I grilled it myself, it was proof enough that I was using really good meat.

As she was admiring the delicious meat, Seoyoon, who was sitting next to her, opened her mouth with a heartbroken expression on her face.

“What? Why are you feeding me?”

“Me and Hajun were originally like that?”

Sunah answers with a smile on her lips as if asking what the problem is. I also added a word.

“I always fed him because he was having a hard time grilling meat.”

“Then… Isn’t it okay for Sunah to take turns baking?”

Perhaps it was because he learned from his parents in high-ranking positions in the Association, he had excellent insight. Because I immediately pointed out the fundamental problem of this situation.

But I could never agree with that statement.

“Gal..! If you leave it to Suna, these expensive meats will become garbage..!”

I don’t know anything else, but since I started training the Hurons and became serious about protein, I’ve become a body that can’t stand to turn meat into sh*t.

Seon-ah’s meat-grilling skills are not as good as that of a five-year-old, so even if she gave her short-cooked beef, there was a risk that it would all turn to coal.

“Hey! I’m not that good?”

“No, what’s wrong! I left it with you the other day and burned everything when I went to the bathroom!”

“Ugh… That’s…”

As the truth of the world is revealed, she seems to be taken aback.

Heaven knew her, I knew it, and she knew it, and it was an argument I had no choice but to win.

“That’s right..? Then I’ll try it too. Ha Jun-ah.”

Seoyoon nodded her head as if she understood, and similarly lifted a piece of meat and handed it to my mouth.

“Ah-.”

It was strange that he had already accepted and ate what Seon-ah gave him, but not accepted and ate what Seo-yoon gave him.

I accepted and ate her meat casually, as it might seem discriminatory against her friends.

[Ingested beef with plenty of magical energy.]

[The duration of the buff is renewed.]

Once again, the taste of umami overflows in the mouth along with the message that disturbs the eyes.

After a while, the meat was still juicy and chewy.

Seon-ah put on a dissatisfied expression, but she didn’t say much. Instead, Seo-yoon opened her mouth.

“How is it? Is it delicious?”

“Yes. It’s delicious, so you guys should try it quickly.”

It is a mortal regret that this kind of meat gets cold.

I hope they enjoy this taste as soon as possible.

But it doesn’t seem to have ended here.

Even though Yu Yi-seol, the third hitter, sat in the farthest seat from me, he easily handed over the meat using his arm length suitable for his height of over 170.

“…Hajun. Ah-.”

‘Brutus or Yu Yi Seol, you too?’

I didn’t expect Yu Yi-seol, who is the most introverted of the three, to come out like this.

Did the previous conversation ignite her fuse? It was nice to see him doing what he wanted to do, not caring whether the other two were there or not.

Of course, it’s a shame that the long-awaited first job is to feed me meat, and it doesn’t mean much.

‘Should I eat…?’

I’ve already eaten from the two people before, and it’s pointless to say that it’s okay if you don’t give me more because you’ve eaten enough for her who has gathered up her courage like this.

I had no choice but to take another piece of meat and see the message that the buff was updated, and then I opened my mouth right away.

“Thanks to you, I ate well, so you guys should eat quickly. I’m the only one eating the meat.”

If I didn’t have to go this far, I would have eaten the most at this place, but I’m too considerate.

It wasn’t until I said one more time that they started eating, and since everyone looked delicious, I continued to grill the meat with a proud heart.

At the point when the atmosphere was somewhat ripe with delicious food and talk about the test, Suna carefully brought out a word.

“Shall we… Have a drink?”

I had 200% of the desire to tell her, but she was worried about the party and didn’t say it, but Suna said it instead.

“Alcohol..?”

“Yes. If you don’t drink on a day like today when you passed the academy, when will you drink again?”

She says as if a kid who has never had a drink needs to drink on an anniversary like this.

“The adults aren’t here either…”

Yes. Yu Yi-seol, a girl with an upright life who can’t stand injustice, came forward.

If it were her, she would surely be able to convince her Sun-ah…

“Why? A wizard is an adult without any legal problems? Or… Do you hate Ha-jun because the first person you drink with is Ha-joon?”

“That’s not… But…”

‘Why are you being persuaded?’

“What about you, Seoyoon?”

Suna asks Seoyoon if she thought Yui Seol was already a fall.

If she is the daughter of a high-ranking member of the Hunter Association, which protects Korea, she will surely be able to stop Sun-ah’s nonsense…

“I like it.”

I couldn’t stop.

“Are you Hajun?”

‘There is no answer to this..?’

In a situation where three people have already agreed, even one objection won’t work, and I didn’t want to ruin this atmosphere too much.

“Okay… Instead, everyone should drink in moderation so as not to get too drunk?”

Thanks to magic, wizards are less drunk than ordinary people.

To get drunk properly, you have to drink at least three or four bottles of soju alone, but I thought it would be okay if I prevented it from running too fast.

“You look like an old man… Okay.”

Sunah then rings the bell.

After a while, an employee came into the room and Suna showed her the menu and ordered.

“Please give me everything from here to here.”

“Hey!”

I was told to do it in moderation, so I ordered all kinds of cocktails and sat down.

“I did a search and they said they weren’t very good.”

‘Yes. The amount itself isn’t much, but…’

The amount per cup is not much, but since cocktails are basically made with distilled spirits over 30 degrees, there were many cases where you would go hooked if you kept drinking it because it was sweet.

I’ve heard that seducers usually make you drunk quickly by feeding them sweet cocktails.

“It’s okay. It’s okay. If you think you can’t drink, I’ll finish it!”

*

Thirty minutes later, Seon-ah, who was saying that, fell first, and Seo-yoon, who had been drinking as if she couldn’t lose to Sun-ah, also lasted for a few more minutes before collapsing, and Yui Seol was clinging to my left half.

“Ha…”

What should I do with them?
