Chapter 376

That’s prominent information.

“… And so, this is from a conversation I’ve overheard at the Adventurer’s Guild’s meat purchasing counter and idle gossip from those who come to deliver us ingredients.”“Eh? Was this story all lies?”

What, I could consent with the offal processing story, and I felt a bit suspicious about the nicely-dressed person! Even though I was getting excited…

“Ah, no. It’s no lie that people of the slums are processing the offals, and in fact, ever since the people of the slums have been enthusiastically placing offal processing requests. It’s just no one knows the identity of the mysterious person, so… it’s doubtful whether they really exist.”“My, is that so…”

Anyhow, it’s a piece of good news that there are people who eat the offals.It’s unfortunate that the mysterious person will stay unidentifiable, though…

“I thought it was idle gossip up until now, but I did not think you would be interested in this, Cristea-sama. I should have inquired more…”

Seeing the dejected and disheartened Head Chef, I followed up in a panic.

“No. I’ve obtained prominent information thanks to you, Head Chef. If you get to know something else, please make sure to let me know, okay?”“Yes! Certainly! I will seize the person in charge of the delivery of goods and make them spit it out!”

Head Chef revived with such vigor I thought I saw him barking with a tail swaying.Wha, wait a moment. What are you planning on doing with the deliverer after catching them?Won’t Head Chef become a criminal at this rate!

“You don’t have to be so unreasonable! Just overhearing as you did before is enough!”“However, if it’s for Cristea-sama’s sake, then…”“It’s fine! Look, if you ask so persistently, won’t they conversely get suspicious and won’t tell you anything? Besides, I would be grateful if you probed for other rare ingredients. It might turn into a hint for a new product, after all.”“Understood!”“Just act naturally, okay?”“Of course!”

Haah… I am afraid of Head Chef’s means when it comes to accomplishing his objective.I am glad I obtained useful information, but I might be more careful from now on when asking or requesting Head Chef of something.

“Thank you. Then, I will excuse myself here.”

Before he could inquire more from me, I swiftly left the kitchen.
