Chapter 1833 – [Second Dimension Restaurant – Saint and Creme Brûlée]

Undead Lich Wizard Kristoff is clearly a wizard who has reached the rank of transcendental. At least with that skill, if he is sufficiently prepared, he will not be easily defeated even if the main body of God comes.

Nevertheless, the reason he looks embarrassed when facing a saint who is not a transcendent is because of his affinity. Sometimes, there are cases where the game is decided when it is important because of compatibility without any difference in rank.

Honestly, you don’t have to go far, just look at me. It was thanks to that compatibility that I, who was not even a Lord, was able to defeat and kill the War Lord.

Even if the Lich is at the highest level of the undead, if the opponent is a saint who is the highest level of a priest, he can inflict damage even if there is a gap. For example, even if Kristoff defends, he cannot block the attack using ordinary methods unless he blocks the space itself to completely prevent the saint’s power from reaching him.

Of course, on the other hand, Kristoff can also inflict damage on the saint… But if you think about which side deals more damage, it is the saint’s side. It’s difficult to explain in detail, but hitting from the top down is more powerful than hitting from the bottom up.

Anyway, when it looked like a fight was going to break out, Eden came running out of her kitchen and grabbed her saintess to stop her. A total of three divine powers emanate from her body, including the god of struggle, the spirit god, and the blacksmith god.

Some undead have the power to turn you into Buddha just by being around them. As he is a transcendental being, isn’t it because of the power of the Second Dimension Restaurant that he doesn’t hit Kristoff?

“Saint!!! Be patient!!!!!”

“Hero, let go of this!!!! You can’t kill that evil spirit!!!!!”

[Saint!!! Why a saint!!!! Ahhh!!!!!]

Regardless of his status, Kristoff seemed quite embarrassed and unable to respond. In addition, despite the saint’s threat, her power did not harm Kristoff thanks to the power given by the Absolute Destruction, one of the powers of the Two-Dimensional Restaurant.

That’s a good thing. At least, thanks to the power received from the Absolute One of Destruction, guests can’t get hurt by fighting each other since they can’t hit their opponents. If you get hurt, that’s a problem. Who would want to eat at a restaurant where someone has died?

Anyway, Eden grabbed her saint and tried to persuade her. The most important thing was to convince her that her opponent was not an evil spirit but just an undead.

“Saint!!! Look carefully!!!! That’s not an evil spirit, it’s just an undead!!!!!”

“Ah…”

At that, the saint’s rampage suddenly stopped.

Since the enemies of priests in such a fantasy world are undead, it is natural for them to react hostilely, but the saints over there are a little different. Because they are plagued by evil spirits rather than the undead, and at one point the world was almost destroyed.

In some ways, it wasn’t at the level of reality shock, but the saint seemed to be feeling something like PTSD. Her evil spirit has disappeared, and she has stabilized to some extent. If you look at something similar, it will be similar to the feeling you had when you turned on a humidifier in the room of a Jew who barely survived the gas chamber during World War II.

“I’m sorry. I overreacted, especially to the customer at the hero’s store… I’m truly sorry. Furthermore, I have no shame.”

[Well, no. Since I am like this too, I was prepared to react hostilely to the priests and priests. Actually, that happened once.]

No, I thought I was overreacting to a saint, but I really did.

It looks like he was dealt quite harshly. Even if the level is lower than mine, he is a transcendental person, but if such a transcendental person reacts at the level of trauma… Ah, isn’t that right? Have you ever been attacked when you were relatively weak?

[It happened a while ago when I had not become undead. After all, the saint who was on her pilgrimage tripped her and almost broke her bones, right?]

The ‘bones’ of the skull are broken. Thump thud!!! I think I need to add a chuimsae.

Although he only had bones and the change in facial expression was only noticeable by the blue color of his eyes, I could still vaguely sense his feelings. Even when I look back on it now, my eyes are full of fear. Looking at that, it seems like it was quite a memorable event.

[At least this girl is cute. The saint I met was…]

“What kind of saint was she?”

[She was a saint like a seasoned mercenary. Her shoulders were as wide as a man’s, her body and face were thick for a woman, and she carried a heavy mace as a weapon.]

“… Is that a saint?”

[That’s right. I know how to deal with it now, but back then I was weaker than I am now and had relatively less experience, so the only thing I could do was run away.]

Why does someone like a female professional wrestler come to mind? It definitely seems like the kind of saint I imagine.

Hey, even if it was me, when I was a newbie, I would have been traumatized if someone like that almost broke my pot with a mace. When she grows up and is surprised by the lid of the pot, and although she looks different on the outside, the saint who serves her god rushes at her, telling her to tear it to pieces and kill her…

Anyway, to some extent, the two calmed down and understood each other’s situation. It was a truly strange situation to stand in virtually opposite positions, with one side being undead and the other side being a saint, having a conversation without fighting, but as it was a brief incident, it was not difficult to start a conversation.

“I’ll say it again, I’m truly sorry. In our world, there was a time when we were almost destroyed by an evil spirit… So when I saw that person, I thought it was an evil spirit and committed a rude act.”

[No, it’s quite possible to misunderstand. By the way, I’m an undead, so you don’t care about that?]

“As long as it’s not an evil spirit, it’s okay. I once had a big problem due to discrimination between different races, and I, who should be the first to advocate for equality, shouldn’t be discriminated against because I’m of a different race.”

[I wonder if we can consider the undead as a race, but evil spirits are a race of people who are driven only by hatred or pleasure… I also use other undead, but I don’t use the evil spirit type.]

“That’s a good thing.”

[I’m Kristoff.]

“My name is Bridget. Please feel free to call me that.”

After the misunderstanding was resolved, we became closer to the point where I wondered if we could become friends like this. If you look closely, it looks like they are just talking well, but if you look from a distance, it is a combination of a saint and an undead, so I have no idea what the situation is.

No matter how much I am a reincarnated person, the only case where those two combinations exist together is a situation where I am on the verge of becoming an undead… No, who would have imagined the two combinations?

[First, give me the ice cream I usually eat. Oh, by the way, what kind of food did the young lady eat?]

“I had a dessert called crème brûlée. I like meals, but since I have a lot of work these days, I’m craving something sweet.”

[When doing physical labor, meat is tempting, but when it comes to using your brain, sweet food is still the best. Because of my body, I can’t eat, but it’s nice to be able to eat and taste the frozen desserts here.]

“The undead… Ah, is that it?”

[That’s it?]

“Previously, the hero defeated one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Demon Lord’s army with food. Even though he was an evil spirit and couldn’t taste it when he ate it.”

“Actually, English cuisine was first developed and created at that time.”

[Oh, it must have been so delicious that I literally died. I have a physical form, like a skeleton, but can a pure spirit body eat other dishes?]

“First of all, even a spirit body must be able to do the act of eating.”

Even Aregish, spirits, evil spirits, or even spiritual bodies can eat spiritual food, but apart from that, you can only eat it if you can do the act of eating. If you don’t have a mouth and can’t digest food, where can you eat and taste?

However, a dish that you can taste even without eating it… Honestly, wouldn’t it be something other than a dish? That went a bit too far.

The quality of English cuisine is just right. There isn’t much room for development yet, and it can be used for many things.

Saint Bridget and the undead lich wizard Kristoff had a fairly friendly conversation. Even though he couldn’t eat the creme brûlée that the saint ate, she could eat the spirit tear sorbet, so they spent time-sharing it.

At the same time, the saint stood up first. She stayed for a while because she was talking with the knight Eden, so it was time for her to go.

“Then I’ll wake up first. It was nice meeting you today, Kristoff.”

[We’ll see later. It was nice to be able to meet a good, flexible saint. If you need my help in the future, feel free to let me know.]

“Then, if there is anything you need my help with, please let me know.”

And the saint also exchanged greetings with Eden. Since she came once, she may come next time, but since we are breaking up again… How can we promise to wait a week?

“Our store is open once a week now, saint. So the next time I see you will be in a week.”

“They say it’s once a week, but since I can see the hero again, I have to come again next time. Oh, but the cost of the meal…”

“Hey, I owe you something. How do I get money from the saint? It’s okay.”

“No, there was a time when we summoned a hero on our own, so we have to pay a fair price. How should we pay the price better?”

“Well, then, if any of the restaurant customers need help later, I’ll help them, but I’ll keep it for now. I don’t know what problems might arise later.”

“Yes, then I understand. I’ll be back next time, warrior. See you in a week!!!”

“Goodbye!!!”

So the saintess returned to her own world. Originally, a two-dimensional restaurant was operated by accepting customers from another world, but this time, Eden looked quite happy, perhaps because she was an acquaintance.

Honestly, she was a worthy opponent. Because both his past and present lives were meaningful people to Eden.

“Relationships are stronger than you think, right?”

“I see… Did something like that happen to you too?”

“Uh, in the case of Ruri.”

“Ruri, how tough are they?!”

“No, apart from the absolute pride of fate, Ruri and others are kind of like that. They meet only when they can forget, so it’s really like that.”

“Ruri!!! Hajimaruyo!!!!!”

“Don’t say anything that will erase your existence.”

“But kids these days don’t know what drip is.”

“Dad’s generation is old!!!!!”

When did I first become involved with Ruri? When you think about it, the relationship is so deep that you have to go back to the beginning of her reincarnation, so it became very complicated.

Anyway, I decided not to worry about that. She says that when you look into the abyss, she also looks into you, and when you look into Ruri, Ruri also looks into you. Trust me, I assure you that at least I had sex with Ruri and gave birth to her child.

“By the way, Eden, are you okay? This time, you must have used the absolute power of destruction among the two-dimensional restaurant powers.”

“Oh, it’s bearable. It’s not that it’s not hard, but at least it’s much better than before.”

“I’m glad you said that, but…”

In the meantime, I spent my time maintaining a two-dimensional restaurant and using the powers of various absolute beings.

The burden placed on Eden… Must be quite large. No, on the contrary, since it is the power of the Absolute, the consumption will be even greater. Despite this, Eden maintained it and also maintained her second-dimensional restaurant on a regular basis.

Well, what should I say? To give a rough analogy, it feels like participating in a marathon once a week while working a 5-day week?

Of course, it is no joke to attend a marathon once a week, but for Eden, it was no different from that level. It’s hard, but… If she thinks about quitting or dying at any time, it’s worth it.

“Just tell me whenever you’re having a hard time. Dad will help you.”

“No, I’m still helping you now.”

“It means that I can help you better. To be honest, it’s hard to cook while using that much power. Not long ago, I couldn’t even cook English properly.”

When Kristoff, the undead lich wizard, first came to our store, Eden found it difficult to prepare English food properly, so she took advantage of the expedient method of serving it using pre-made English aged alcohol.

Well, I know he will always order it later, but that means that Eden had his limits at that time.

“I’m a lot bigger than before. Dad, I want you to compare the past me with the current me!!!!!”

“Oh… It sure was big.”

“Breasts?”

“Not the heart, but the will!!!!”

“Will (chichijjangkeo).”

“You’re done growing up now, so there’s nothing left to grow?!”

As I looked at Eden showing off his confidence, I evaluated him and nodded. Anyway, let alone the crap that followed.

Unlike before, when Eden maintained her powers when she first had a hard time, she seems to be relatively used to it now. If at first it seemed like the arms and legs were tied up in chains and unable to move properly, would you say that you can move around to some extent now?

Of course, apart from that, I still had to go through a lot of trouble to move freely. So there is still a long way to go.

“I need to work harder. I ended up using powers that I thought I would never use, but I don’t know what will happen later.”

“That’s right.”

“If hundreds of customers come, won’t it dry up and die?”

“Uh huh, then don’t use it from the beginning.”

“No, but the chef has to cook when hungry guests come. That’s why he has to build up enough strength to withstand that.”

“… That mindset is good.”

“What doesn’t kill me only makes me stronger!!! Ultron did the same!!!!!”

“You should have said that was what Nietzsche said, not what Ultron said before!?!”

“Nude!? What?! Cooking naked?! No matter how much I am, that’s a bit much!!!!”

“You heard that wrong!!!!!”

There was a bit of a commotion, but Eden’s will was firm. She plans to continue to run her second dimension restaurant and receive her own customers.

Although you do not gain experience through armed conflict, it is like training with tools such as weights or dumbbells, so you will definitely get results. Even now, I am much stronger than before.

If Eden grows in earnest later… How big will it become?

“You’re not thinking of Keter, whose breasts are swollen because of the breast milk, right? Honestly, I think my boobs are too big and uncomfortable!!!!”

“I thought it would be big, but I didn’t think it would be physically big!!!!!”

First, one thing is certain.

Even though Eden is big, it is still Eden. My personality won’t change at all, so it will always be the same.

… No, but is this a good thing? Even when the child grows up, it’s a bit weird if the child makes a fuss by saying all kinds of things like sex drips and dog drips?!
