Chapter 31: Fira the cook?
Previous Arthur wasn’t much of a social butterfly and was an aloof man who would keep to himself and enjoy the little things he would do in this life without any large dreams and aspirations.
Which is why he didn’t have any friends other than the so-called friends who would take advantage of him.
He greeted them with a cold greeting and was on his own way toward the dining hall without entertaining them anymore.
Just as he entered the hall, he could feel the gazes of so many people on him. Most of them were slaves who would have noticed his absence for a day, but that’s not what was bothering him; it was the elves who were acting very different from yesterday and who kept looking at him and then talking to each other.
He couldn’t understand why they were acting this way, but they didn’t seem to have any intention of approaching him, so he didn’t think much about it.
Arthur took a plate like usual, but this time he had much more time than the last time, so he was going to enjoy this meal fully and would try many dishes.
First, he took the bread and meat like usual. He didn’t know what kind of meat this was, but yesterday it tasted very delicious to him. There was fish too, so he took that as well.
He took the rice, milk, and different kinds of fruits, which looked related to the fruit he had on his Earth, but they were slightly different; however, he could easily see the resemblance.
They were quite big, so he couldn’t take much, so he only took an apple, which didn’t look the same as the one he had gotten from Zyra on their first meeting.
The apple reminded him of both of them; he hadn’t met them since yesterday. He wondered what they were doing.
While in his thoughts, he walked up to an empty seat at a table for four. He especially chose the table on which all the seats were empty.
His plate was filled to the brim because of how hungry he was due to exercising last night. So many people were looking at him, but he chose to ignore them and focus on enjoying his meal.
He took a bite of the red-seasoned meat and chewed it properly, with a ’hmm’ sound being released from him due to how tasty it was.
In his previous life, he lived alone. He couldn’t afford to eat out, so he would usually eat alone, and having no friends, he had no one to tell him how bad his cooking actually was, which is why the food he would usually eat could only be labeled as edible and nothing more.
He ate noodles quite a bit, as they were cheap and much tastier than the food he would cook.
But this meat—its flavors were rich and seasoned well—so he enjoyed it a lot.
He took his time; he ate at a relaxed pace as the work would start at 9 a.m., so he had a whole hour to spare. free𝑤ebnovel.com
While eating, he didn’t forget to show his appreciation through humming sounds.
Other slaves were shocked to see Arthur devouring such a big meal so easily.
Men usually didn’t eat much as they were very conscious of their weight, but seeing him eat so freely without caring about anything, they were perplexed and also astonished by the fact that he could eat that much.
Arthur had finished his meal and was now ready to leave, but he didn’t because he had something he had to do.
’How can I leave without thanking the person who had made such a delicious meal for me?’
He had finished every bit of his meal and now looked at all the elves present here one by one to try to find out who the cook was. If it wasn’t obvious, he would just ask one of the elves inside the hall.
He couldn’t even remember the last time he had such a great meal, so he wouldn’t leave without saying thanks to the cook.
He looked at each elf one by one, and suddenly he noticed an elf whose clothes were a little different than the rest, as she had an apron on with a white hat on her head.
Noticing her dressing, he knew she must be the one who had cooked the food, so he stood and started walking toward her. She was on the other side of the hall, so he had to walk a little opposite the exit.
But he didn’t care at all and walked at a normal pace, as anything faster would start to make him feel pain.
The elves in the hall were confused to see Arthur walking in the opposite direction of the exit. They couldn’t understand why he was going that way; still, no one stopped him, as it was not a restricted area.
He reached her and was now standing in front of an elf who had jet black hair. Her ears were like Zyra and Liora’s—smaller than the usual size he would see on normal elves, which meant she was a half-elf like them.
He could see the look of confusion on her face, so he didn’t let her wait and directly held both her hands and said with a reverent look on his face:
"Miss, the food you made was so amazing. I enjoyed it a lot, so thank you very much."
He would have liked to learn how she had made the food so delicious, but he didn’t have time for that right now, as he had to get as strong as possible quickly.

Fira was very confused as to why such a handsome slave had appeared in front of her all of a sudden. During her time working here for the past two months, she didn’t have much interaction with anyone.
There was one more month left, and then she could leave this place.
’That damn master had told me to get more experience in cooking and sent me here to a mana mine full of male slaves.’
She did enjoy looking at the men all day, but she couldn’t imagine how it was going to improve her cooking skills.
