Anime: The Days I Opened a Restaurant in Fantasy Town

the old goblin asked.

Longdan carefully observed the vegetables on the stall. They came in various colors and shapes, and some even emitted a faint fragrance.

"What are these?"

She pointed at a few brightly colored plants with a curious look on her face.

"These are vegetables that are unique to our Youkai Mountain."

The old goblin grinned and explained

"For example, this rainbow leaf is not only delicious, but also has the effect of strengthening the body; and this night-light fruit emits a soft light at night, which is very suitable for decorating dishes."

After listening to the introduction, Gentian decided to buy some rainbow leaves to try.

She picked up one and looked at it carefully, feeling its unique texture and scent, and already had a preliminary idea in her mind.

Maybe it can be used to make soup or salad.

Because of its health-enhancing effect, it can provide some help to the participants of the courage test conference.

After buying things and leaving the vegetable stall, Longdan and Reimu Marufumi continued to stroll around the entire market.

Along the way, they met many different types of monsters, some of whom were warm and hospitable and willing to share stories about their specialties;

Some seemed a little shy, but still friendly enough to offer their products for people to choose from.

Some of them are not welcoming to humans, but after Reimuchimaru threatened to report them, they admitted their mistakes and flatteredly invited Kobayashi Ryodan to take a closer look...

Kobayashi Ryodan did not dwell on the above issues and continued to wander around the gathering of monsters.

When he came to a stall selling spices, Longdan stopped and asked the stall owner about the origin of some mysterious spices.

The monster who was approached lifted up his long hair and said confidently

"This is collected from far away places. It is said to enhance the taste of food!"

"It is said... is there any source for this?"

"Uh...anyway, someone has used it, so I went there to look for it! And I won't lie!"

The long-haired monster emphasized loudly.

Gentian nodded without argument and purchased some for future experiments.

Afterwards, they came to a stall selling honey. The honey here had a rich floral fragrance that made people want to taste it.

After some tasting and comparison, Longdan selected several bottles of high-quality honey and planned to use them to make desserts.

When the bag was half full, Xiaolin Longdan found an inconspicuous stall in a corner of the market, which displayed several kinds of vegetables he had never seen before.

The stall owner is a young female fairy. She shyly introduced the characteristics of these vegetables.

"These are all grown using the cultivation methods passed down from generation to generation in our family. They are very precious."

Longdan listened carefully and learned that these vegetables are not only nutritious, but also have special flavor.

One of the vegetables, called phantom radish, caught her attention.

“How does it taste?”

she asked curiously.

“It tastes a bit like a regular radish, but has a subtle sweetness and has a lovely aroma when cooked.”

The fairy girl replied.

Longdan nodded with satisfaction, and finally decided to buy some phantom radishes and several other special vegetables.

I believe these will all come in handy in future Test of Courage conferences.

In addition, there are stalls selling desserts and snacks in the monster market.

"Let's go buy some and try it."

Said the greedy Reimu Bun.

"sure."

"I'm treating you this time."

When Wen heard Longdan's answer, he generously took out his wallet.

The two came to the front of the store, and Wen continued

"It has always been Mr. Zhou Guang who treated us, and Ms. Longdan also made a lot of snacks for me, so I will be the host this time."

"By the way, what is Mr. Shuguang's reputation in Youkai Mountain?"

"In the eyes of many youkai, he is a very generous and powerful human chef."

Whether in the human camp or the monster camp, Zhou Guang, who opened a restaurant, is a very popular figure.

Understanding this, Kobayashi Ryodan looked at the ingredients in his hand.

You must become someone worthy of the glory of the state.

And this time, preparing food for the Test of Courage competition is an opportunity.

“You have to work hard.”

"Yeah? Yeah? Everyone should work hard."

Hearing Ryoudan's mumbling, Reimu Marufumi nodded repeatedly, thinking that he was talking to him.

The shopping trip of the man and the monster in Monster Mountain is about to come to an end.

Zhou Guang's restaurant.

Facing Nanase Ren who came over wet, Shumitsu handed her the towel.

After Nanase Ren wiped the rain off her hair, Shu Guang spoke.

"I have a bathroom here, and the hot water has been heated for a long time. You can take a hot bath to warm up."

Nanase Ren put down the towel and nodded with messy hair.

"Thanks……"

Her movements seemed mechanical, and her absent-minded look made people wonder what she had been through.

Afterwards, Nanase Ren followed Shuguang's instructions and went to the bathroom, trying to enjoy the moment of tranquility.

While Nanase Ren was taking a bath, Shukou decided to make her a bowl of steaming chicken soup.

He prepares the ingredients carefully, stewing the chicken until it is well-seasoned, then adding fresh vegetables and spices.

As the aroma of chicken soup gradually filled the entire restaurant, Zhou Guang began to wonder what kind of trouble Nanase Ren had encountered.

After all, the world where Love exists is quite subtle...

Not long after, Nanase Ren finished her shower and returned to the first floor.

My overall condition is somewhat different from before, and I feel a little more energetic.

Nanase Ren smelled the aroma and saw the chicken soup on the table, and her eyes lit up.

"Um...is this...made for me?"

She asked, her tone not quite steady.

"certainly,"

Zhou Guang replied with a smile

"Drink some hot soup and you'll feel much better."

Nanase Ren responded and sat down, slowly savoring the bowl of warm chicken soup.

Every bite made her feel extremely comfortable, as if all the fatigue was released at this moment.

Zhou Guang watched her quietly from the side, trying to capture every change in her expression.

"Did something happen?"

When half of the chicken soup was gone, Zhou Guang asked softly.

Nanase Ren stopped what he was doing, looked at Shu Guang with some hesitation, and finally spoke

"I... have encountered a lot of problems at work recently. Patients' curses, mistakes at work, fatigue from overtime... all of this makes me feel very depressed."

Hearing this, Zhou Guang nodded in understanding and did not ask any further questions.

In short, they are all work-related issues.

I believe that Nanase Ren can adjust her mentality.

For this reason, all Zhou Guang has to do is simply accompany her.

"Then take a rest in the restaurant. It's quiet here and you can relax."

"kindness……"

After saying this, Nanase Ren continued to talk about her work in the hospital.

Zhou Guang listened patiently and gave some encouragement from time to time.

"In my opinion, Ms. Nanase has done a good job. There are some things that you can't control. At this time, you should try to retreat and forget."

"Forgotten?"

"Yes, there is no need to remember everything. After all, there are many good things for us to experience and remember in the future."

"I feel like Mr. Zhou Guang is very free and easy."

"I just simply don't want to remember troublesome things, haha."

Zhou Guang smiled.

As time went by, Nanase Ren's mood gradually calmed down.

Unlike working in the hospital and resting at home, Nanase Ren likes the feeling of being in the restaurant and also likes the feeling of having Shu Guang by her side.

At this moment, Nanase Ren, who had just finished drinking the chicken soup, suddenly spoke

"I sometimes rest on the roof of the hospital, and during this time I like to listen to music."

"Any recommendations?"

"Yep."

Nanase Ren picked up her handbag and took out her cell phone.

Then the music started.

It is melodious classical music.

Nanase Ren closed her eyes at this moment and listened quietly.

Zhou Guang saw this and closed his eyes as well.

When the last note fell, Zhou Guang opened his eyes and found that Nanase Ren was getting closer and closer.

She leaned towards Zhou Guang and pressed her body gently against him.

Feeling this closeness, Zhou Guang did not retreat, but hugged the person in front of him.

Nanase Ren raised her head, looked into Shuguang's eyes, and then gave her a gentle kiss.

"..."

The silent Shuko looked at Nanase Ren, whose eyes seemed to be shining.

"Ms. Nanase, let's... go to the second floor and rest."

Before Kobayashi Ryudou comes back, Shukou and Nanase still have a lot of time...and...

Chapter 125: Nanase Ren is captured, Shion Igami is kissed

The warm bed is different from the cold rain and is reassuring.

Nanase Ren smiled in such comfort and let out a long breath, as if to put aside all the previous troubles and problems, and completely adjusted herself.

Instead of indulging in such a gentle environment, Nanase Ren sat up and quickly put on the clothes she had taken off earlier to cover her completely exposed fair body.

Feeling very sorry, Shumitsu looked at Nanase Ren.
