Anime: The Days I Opened a Restaurant in Fantasy Town

Jingle Bell.

"welcome."

Zhou Guang greeted and looked towards the main entrance.

The people who came this time were not customers from another world, but residents of Gensokyo.

She is wearing a nightgown-like gown and a pink and purple ruffled hat decorated with ribbons and the signature crescent-shaped ornament, while holding a book in her left hand.

"Excuse me...Zed"

The magician of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Patchouli Noreki, is today's first customer.

She is a natural born magician and is over a hundred years old.

For a hundred years, she has lived with books every day.

In addition, as the head of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Patchouli is responsible for solving problems that occur in the Scarlet Devil Mansion, and is also responsible for creating problems in the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

However, unlike the owner of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, although she is not afraid of sunlight, she basically stays at home, and the library where she is active all year round is also where sunlight cannot reach.

But since meeting Zhou Guang, she changed her mind.

Patchouli was intrigued by the immense magical power that Shuguang might possess.

Just like that, the homebound magician visited the restaurant again this afternoon, intending to have a good chat.

Chapter 78: Kafka and Silver Wolf's Gifts, Patchouli's Desire to Go to "Bengtie" and Takeaway from Eternatei

The magician of the Scarlet Devil Mansion was the first guest to arrive at the restaurant in the afternoon.

She sat down at the counter near the kitchen with a book in her hand, then slowly picked up the menu.

"Mr. Zhou Guang, am I here just in time?"

"That's right. I didn't open the store this morning. I just opened it before Miss Patchouli came. I guess it wasn't even a minute."

"This can be considered a kind of fate. I thought my trip here would be in vain."

Patchouli pointed at the pudding on the menu and said

"I want this."

"right away."

"Actually, around ten o'clock this morning, Remlia asked the little devil to come here to check, but the little devil came back and told us that the restaurant was still closed."

"Then why is Miss Patchouli here?"

"I calculated the time should be just right."

This is really fate...

Zhou Guang turned around and started making the pudding that Patchouli wanted.

Patchouli, who is over a hundred years old but still looks young, opened the magic book she brought with her.

There was a fragrance wafting out of the book. Zhou Guang smelled it and looked over with some curiosity.

"Are Miss Patchouli's books perfumed, too?"

"Books? Ah, yes..."

Patchouli sniffed her arm, then the book in front of her.

Before she went out today, she used some rose-scented perfume, and as for the magic book she brought with her...

"A few days ago, Izayoi told me that bugs were found in the Scarlet Devil Mansion. Because he was worried that they would chew on the books, he mixed some mosquito repellent perfume and sprayed it in the library."

"The bugs in the Scarlet Devil Mansion... Miss Izayoi and the maids should have cleaned it very well, right? How could there be bugs here?"

"It was most likely brought by an outsider. I suspect it was Marisa."

Marisa, who is always running around, is also a magician, so it is normal for the two to communicate.

"I sometimes invite Marisa to the Scarlet Devil Mansion to discuss magic through tea parties and reading sessions, but... Marisa can hardly sit still and wants to leave in less than half an hour."

Patchouli continued to recall with a helpless look on her face.

"About half a month ago, when she came to the Scarlet Devil Mansion, she was covered in weeds and bushes, and there was spider silk stuck on her hat. She must have been wandering around some messy and bad places."

"Some time ago, there was a treasure hunt craze on 520 among the people."

Zhou Guang also remembered it.

To put it simply, the goblins are spreading the word everywhere that they have discovered treasures buried in the forest and caves.

One person even got rich from it.

This aroused great interest among the residents of the human village.

To be honest, these things happen all the time in Gensokyo.

Non-existent treasures, gods in the forest, phantoms in the sky, visitors from foreign lands, giant monsters, and so on.

Some are pranks, some are mutations, and it is difficult to tell the truth from the false at the first sight.

"Anyway, whenever there's movement, Marisa will run over there."

"That girl really can't sit still."

After Zhou Guang finished speaking, he brought the prepared pudding to Patchouli.

"Miss Patchouli, this is my special pudding, I hope you like it."

Seeing the snacks being served, Patchouli put down the book in her hand and looked at the exquisite dessert with curiosity.

She picked up the spoon, scooped up a portion and put it in her mouth.

Instantly, her eyes lit up.

The pudding had a delicate and smooth texture, with just the right amount of sweetness blending perfectly with the fragrance of vanilla, bringing her an unprecedented taste enjoyment.

“This… this is…”

Patchouli said in surprise

"This pudding tastes quite delicious. In addition to its smooth texture, it is not too sweet, but also has the right sweetness. This shows Mr. Zhou Guang's cooking skills."

"you flatter me."

"It's even better than what Izayoi made. Of course, I also like the food Izayoi makes."

Zhou Guang just smiled back.

Then he added

“For this pudding, I used fresh milk and eggs, plus a little vanilla extract for flavor.”

"So that's it..."

Patchouli nodded and continued to savor the delicious food.

At this moment, she seemed to temporarily forget the complicated magic formulas and unsolved puzzles, and fully enjoyed this unexpected sweetness.

By the time they finished eating the pudding, Patchouli was still the only customer in the restaurant.

So Patchouli seized the opportunity and asked softly when Zhou Guang brought a cup of hot tea and took away the empty pudding plate.

"Can I see Mr. Shuguang's hands?"

"That's no problem..."

Zhou Guang wiped his hands with a towel and then stretched them out.

Patchouli held Zhou Guang's hand and observed it carefully.

“Is this palm reading?”

"No, that's not it. I've seen Mr. Zhou Guang detected with a huge amount of magic power by the detection device before, so I want to see your arm... Generally speaking, that kind of huge magic power often gathers at the end of the limbs and then radiates out."

"Is it like this……"

"At least that's what some studies describe, but I don't see any signs of that in Mr. Zhou Guang."

Patchouli's research is in doubt.

Her gaze turned to Zhou Guang's collar.

Seeing this, Zhou Guang joked

"I can't take off my clothes while the restaurant is open."

“No, I don’t have such thoughts…!”

Patchouli quickly shook her head in denial.

But then she thought, maybe it would be okay to just close the business?

Patchouli was curious about Shuko's enormous magical power, but before she could come to a conclusion, the door was pushed open.

Kafka, who hadn't been there for a few days, appeared in their sight.

"Ah, we're open this afternoon. I thought the store was closed all day."

"Ms. Kafka, I haven't seen you for a few days."

"Missed me? Shopkeeper~"

"A little bit, indeed."

"I don't think I can do this for long."

Kafka sat down on Patchouli's left and ordered a cup of black tea.

While Zhou Guang was making it, she took out a box.

After opening it, there was a cartoon-like pistol inside.

"Shopkeeper, the snacks I brought back were very popular. My Silver Wolf and Firefly liked them very much. More than half of them were eaten by Silver Wolf, so she asked me to bring some back when I come."

"Return gift?"

Zhou Guang brought the black tea to Kafka.

Then I also noticed the cartoon pistol on the table, which looked a bit like a toy.

"Didn't I give you a diamond as meal payment not long ago?"

"Yeah, it's still in the closet."

"That thing doesn't seem to be a gem in the traditional sense. Or rather, real gems aren't that valuable. Can you lend it to me now?"

"of course can."

Zhou Guang opened the drawer, which was filled with diamonds, yen, gold coins, coins, etc., which were the meal money received from the guests.

After handing the diamond to Kafka, Kafka picks up the cartoon gun instead.

There was a groove at the back of the gun, and she threw the diamond into it.

Accompanied by some electronic sound effects, a projection of a silver wolf emerged.

It was a young girl with silver-gray hair.

She wore rabbit ears and goggles on her head, a black hairpin, and black earrings, looking quite fashionable.

"Magic, magic mirror?"

Patchouli looked at the images projected by the high-tech toy gun. She didn't feel any magic and was very curious.

As Kafka raised the gun, the projection of the Silver Wolf began to speak.

[Ahem, this is the video I recorded in advance. After all, I don't know if real-time communication is possible between two worlds. Next time I have a chance, I must go there to investigate in person. Maybe the two sides are not the same universe? The same plane? I can only say that the starry sky is vast, and there are all kinds of possibilities. ]

[Back to the point, the boss's snacks are delicious, especially when playing games, it is quite pleasant to eat with delicious food, and I feel that the operation has become better; this time, the weapon I asked Kafka to bring can emit repair foam after being installed on that special diamond. The working principle... It's very complicated, anyway, as long as the energy in the diamond is not used up, it can repair a lot of things. ]

[Then, Kafka, please demonstrate it to the store manager. ]

The image ends at this moment.

Kafka also gently waved the cartoon gun in her hand.

“Is there anything that needs to be filled or repaired?”

"In that case... the wall of the booth area is damaged. It was caused by the fight between Suika and Marisa."
