Amazing Village Building

Chapter 335: You can’t fight on an empty stomach, you know!?

I found a rather thick woman in the restaurant district.

I couldnt really believe it at first, but the katana hanging from her waist left little room for doubt that she was actually Akane-san.

Akane-san?

When I called out like that, the one I assumed to be Akane-san who was also holding over 5 hamburgers turned around.

Mhm? Why, if it isnt Luke-dono. Is there something amiss?

I think I should be the one asking that. What are you doing here?

W-w-whatever do you mean? To buy burgers, of course. I must say, these are astonishingly delicious! Theres nothing quite like it in my homeland!

Akane-san, who was clearly flustered, hurried to hide a few of the 5 burgers behind her.

Its too late for that though.

I mean, lets not mind how many burgers youve had for now; what happened to your training?

Im, Im just having a meal before I start! You cant fight on an empty stomach, you know!?

Sure. But according to what I heard, youve completely stopped coming to train recently.

Ghh

When I asked further, sweat began to form on Akanes face.

By any chancecan I visit the room we lent to you?

N-no! I mean, how do I say this, right now isnot a good time for me

If I remember correctly, that room is around here,

I quickly grabbed Akane-sans hand as she was getting those words out and used teleport.

So fastif I could do that, I wonder how easier it would be to get food

What are you mumbling? Anyway, this is your room, right? Can I come in?

Wha!? No, no, wait a

Alright, Im coming in!

Without waiting for her answer, I opened the door.

When I did so, an intense stench assaulted my nose. It was probably the stench of the food scraps going bad.

Woah

I reflexively pinched my nose as I entered. The leftover scattered on top of her bed immediately caught my attention. Of course, there were also the hamburger paper wrappers, the skewer sticks, and the used but unwashed cups, just to name a few. She sure ate a lot in this room.

There are remains even on the bedand it hasnt been that long since you got this room, right? So why are the sheets so stained? But I see nowin other words, instead of training, you locked yourself in this room doing nothing but eat and sleep.

As though to confirm that my deduction was spot on, all Akane-san could do was groan.

But werent you staying in our village solely so that you can train?

its all!

With her flabs shaking, Akane-san shouted something.

Its all this villages foods fault for being too delicioussssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!!!

She grabbed one of the burgers she just bought, undid its wrapping, and then bit into it.

Youre going to eat now!?

Uuuu, so delicious! *munch**munch*!Like I expected, its so delicious! *munch**munch**munch**munch*! Once I get a bite, I just cant stop! *munch**munch**munch**munch**munch**munch*!!

In the blink of an eye, she finished that burger. And without skipping a beat, she started on the next one.

I cant be satisfied with just one! *munch*! Ill have another one, then another, then another! Before I know it, all 5 or so are gone!*munch**munch**munch**munch**munch**munch**munch**munch**munch**munch*!

Eating like that without sweating it off was a sure way to thicken anybody up.

was that resolve you showed back then just a lie? Is someone whose determination is so easily overturned by their appetite worthy of being a samurai? Because if so, then I suppose samurai arent all that big of a deal.

I purposely made made my remark to be scathing.

Wha!?

As though she came to her senses, she stopped her hand from putting a burger into her mouth.

What have I been doingIve forgotten my pride as a samurai and lost control of myself to all these food

The burger fell from her shaking hand onto the bed, staining it further.

This is a shame that can only be washed away with my death! Witness me as I conduct seppuku!

Waaaa! Hold on!

mm?

Akane-san suddenly tried to disembowel herself, but as she was taking out a dagger, her hand stopped.

I cant take it out my dagger; my flesh is in the way!?

At that, I dropped to the floor without meaning to.
