602 Behind the Cuisine
This is supposed to be a surprise for me.
Her way of showing off the inn she's managing.
Selram giggled seemingly satisfied that it worked.
"Come, have a seat now. My? Perhaps you're unfamiliar with the custom? Oh that's alright. This is your first time staying at this inn after all."
I took off my footwear and put a foot on the soft looking carpet.
I was genuinely surprised at how blissful it felt.
"It's so soooft~ Oof, soft and fluffy~..."
I let out a weird sound as I sat down.
Then an unplanned sigh as my arse got wrapped in the gentle sensation.
"My, I see it's to your liking. I'm so glad. Come, let's enjoy the meal."
Selram signaled to the staff after confirming my satisfied look.
All kind of food got brought in.
An assortment of fruits, a whole roast of some sorta poultry, unfamiliar sliced seafood, salad with vividly colored fresh vegetables I don't know of, a hot piping mushroom-like gratin with a generous serving of cheese-like thing. A soup shining purple with unknown ingredients wafting a fragrant aroma, a silver booze letting out a strong alcohol smell, and bite-sized bread glazed with some sort of pasta.

More unfamiliar cuisines got brought in afterward. As someone ignorant of the world, I have no idea what they're all called or made of. Everything is grand.
(Ah, geez she's definitely plotting something. Recall what Kyaro said. The supply Selram gave her when she was stranded didn't come free.)
First of all, I gotta confirm that. My instinct is telling me. Apparently a concept as vague as instinct works pretty well in this world.
To begin with, I booked a room for a night with no meal included.
I never asked for a meal service. She never said anything about treating me either.
'Let's have a meal together', that's it. Meaning all this food is not meant for me.
Selram prepared it all. I have no idea what kind of meal is served at this inn.
But there's no way all of this is a normal course set.
Selram asked when she saw me not touching the food.
"What's wrong? Aren't you gonna eat?"
"I will. But before that, what are you plotting? I want to hear that first."
I don't mind asking after chomping down on all this food. That card should have enough funds to cover this much, it's unlimited and all.
Kyaro's case was because she didn't have a penny back then.
The me now do. I had no reason to fear eating. Nevertheless, I must first ask her deal first. To avoid unnecessary awkwardness doing that after meal. I don't wanna find myself in a situation where it's hard to run away.
"My, I'm not scheming anything..."
"That's fine, I'll excuse myself then. I'll be in my room if you need me."
I flashed my business smile to try her. Selram stopped me in a hurry.
My instinct did great.
