Ch 55 -- It's been a while since I tasted curry

I decided to stay at the "Gryphon's Nest" inn that I was referred to . Having travelled through the Gryphons territory to get here the name of the inn was a little disconcerting but it's a well-known inn hereabouts . It costs 8 silver coins a night with a contracted beast .

There was a beast stable at the back of the building, like the places we had stayed at before, so I asked Fer to go there . I went to my room and prepared to cook . I bought the items I needed for the meal I was planning from the Net Super .

The main item, the Rock Bird meat really needs to marinate for an hour or so but I poked it with a fork so the flavourings penetrate more easily and anyway a shorter time will be fine . In the meantime I laid my futon out on the inn's bed .

If I didn't take care Fer would force his way into this room . I took my satchel which Sui was sleeping in and went down to Fer's place .

"You'll have to wait, Fer . "

"I've waited long enough . " he growled . "I'm hungry right now . "

"Ah, sorry, it's going to take a bit longer . "

"WHAAAT--?!"

There's nothing that can compete with a hungry Fer when it comes to drama queens . How tragic! Taking pity on the poor wretch I bought ten fried mincemeat cakes from the Net Super for him .

"Dinner-?" Oh, Sui had woken up . I gave her five mincemeat cakes as well .

"Eat these for now, you two and just be patient . "

Right then, it's going to be broccoli for a side dish . Chop the broccoli into the right sized-pieces, wash it in cold water and then boil it with a little salt . After it's cooked drain it and let it cool . If you don't drain the broccoli straight away it will get soggy as the water cools . Why broccoli you may ask? Well, I like it obviously . I always make it as a side for this kind of main dish which tonight is going to be tandoori chicken . I opened up the filled plastic bag which I had prepared up in my room . It had plain yoghurt, grated garlic and grated ginger (from tubes) and salt and pepper and curry powder, along with Rock Bird meat which I had poked with a fork to make holes in it before massaging it . I fried it in olive oil in a really hot frying pan so both sides were scorched and I served it with broccoli and plenty of mayonnaise .

"It's ready-"

Fer and Sui were right beside me in an instant and started eating .

"This has a curious flavour but it's really tasty . " muttered Fer .

"Yes, Sui likes it too . "

Spicy hot curry may be unknown in this world but it's delicious anyhow . I bit into the tandoori chicken . "Ummm-!"

When you want to eat curry you REALLY want to eat curry . Since I'm not a true gourmet I cooked the sort of curry I eat at home . This meant using two different types of curry roux . One of them is my regular choice, the other is something different like a new product on the market . I feel that it makes the curry taste richer somehow, it's just the way I like it .

Thinking about how I made curry I wanted to eat more of it . Should I make more curry? Fer and Sui will eat as much as I can make so it'll be fine . I can always grill some Rock Bird steaks for them if they complain .

"Aruji, seconds please-"

"Me too . "

Yeah yeah . I'll cook more tandoori chicken for you . I'll have seconds too, that curry taste is so comforting after so long . The broccoli and mayonnaise was delicious too . Next time it will be curry rice .

* * * * *After returning to my room and putting Sui on the futon to sleep I thought hard about my future .

First I want to establish my position in the Adventurers Guild . It's where I can get monsters dismantled properly and collect the meat and I can't keep on getting deregistered . However the G rank qualification period is only one month and if I feel like travelling anywhere that's likely to take longer than a month .

So should I try and level up to rank F in the Adventurers Guild here while I'm in this city? I'm finally in the Leonhart Kingdom which seems stable . I want to travel a lot but I'm in no rush . If I get to F rank I'll have three months before losing my registration, not one so even if I was travelling around I'd still stay registered .

OK, I'll hang around here for a bit and work hard to get to F rank . Luckily because I got to know Lambert-san and everyone in 'Phoenix' I've got good connections in this city which will come in handy .

Since I wasn't really planning to be a real adventurer I don't know exactly how to raise my rank though, so I think I'll go to the Adventurers Guild tomorrow and ask there . I expect I'll have to take a number of requests like searching for medicinal herbs and such over the next month .

Poor me, it's not like I want to become a real adventurer .
