Pirate reincarnated into slime

Chapter 76 The Village and the Hotel

On the trail, the three of Roland walked and chatted.

"Captain, do I need to put on the cloak?" Xiaoyu asked worriedly as she touched her cat ears.

"It's okay, don't wear it for now," Roland shook his head, and continued, "Let's talk about it if the residents here don't accept it. After all, it's not comfortable to wear, right?"

"Well," Xiaoyu nodded lightly, "it will hurt your ears."

"Then you don't need to wear it," Roland continued. "Be confident and don't care too much about other people's attitudes. If they dare to do anything to you, I will stop them."

"Thank you, Captain," Xiaoyu smiled slightly.

"By the way, this path is really long. After walking for so long, there is still no end in sight," Mei Lin also spoke, a little surprised.

"Indeed," Roland nodded. "Besides, they are all paved with stone bricks. There may be a bustling town or even a big city in front of them."

"Really? I'm so looking forward to it!" Mei Lin couldn't help but chuckled as she spoke. Roland gave her pocket money for the first time, and she really hoped to meet a place where she could shop!
……

Walked for a while.

"It seems to be the exit?" The front suddenly became bright, and Roland couldn't help but ask.

"Is it finally here?!" Mei Lin and Xiaoyu cheered, and ran forward at a faster pace.

"Really, as for being so excited?" Roland shook his head lightly, and also chased after him.

Soon, the three walked out of the forest.

Unlike the darkness in the forest, the outside of the forest is very bright, and you can still feel the warm sun on your body. It is very warm, but not too hot.

Looking around, Roland had to admit that the scenery in front of him was indeed beautiful, but it was a little different from what he had imagined, that this place was not a bustling town, but a quiet small village.

Moreover, the village is not big, and you can see the other side of the village from one side at a glance.

There are few houses, and not many pedestrians can be seen, but there are pale white flowers blooming everywhere, and there is a faint fragrance in the air, which is very pleasant.

In addition, although the house is not big, it is different from the wooden house in Mei Lin's hometown. It is an exquisite cottage made of bricks and stones.

"There seems to be no place to buy things..." Mei Lin was a little disappointed, but before Roland had time to comfort her, she grinned, "But, it's such a beautiful place!"

"Really, what a peaceful place, completely different from the kingdom..." Xiaoyu also sighed softly.

"Okay, don't worry about sighing for now, let's go to the village and have a look," Roland also said, and walked forward.

"Hmm!" Mei Lin and the two replied loudly, and followed.

The first few houses I passed were closed and there were no signs posted. They should be ordinary residential houses.

And the people I met on the road, although they were a little curious about Xiaoyu's situation, were not as extreme as the people in the Goa Kingdom, nor did they cast strange glances at Xiaoyu.

Maybe it's because there were Devil Fruit users on this island?Roland didn't think much about it, as long as he didn't come to hinder Xiaoyu.

Afterwards, after walking a certain distance, Roland and the others saw a house with the signboard of "Maria's Hotel".

This house is obviously bigger than other surrounding houses, and it may be a good place to see many people coming and going.

There was no other place to choose, and the three of them directly entered the hotel.

Sure enough, it not only provides accommodation, but also a place to sell food. However, the strange thing is that there are many people coming in and out, but the tables in the hall are almost empty.

"Could it be that the food here is not delicious?" Roland thought subconsciously, but after looking carefully, he found that he had misunderstood, because there were quite a lot of people in line at the place where the goods were sold.

Moreover, there are two people in the line who look familiar... they are Meilin and Xiaoyu...

"Why did you start queuing right away?! Didn't you just come in?" Roland said a little speechlessly.

"Captain, the food here smells delicious!" Xiaoyu said excitedly.

By the way, probably because of the influence of the devil fruit, her sense of smell is more sensitive than ordinary people.

"Okay, let's try it then," Roland smiled wryly, walked behind them, and also lined up.

Roland's plan was to wait for the three of them to buy it before paying the bill, but how could Mei Lin, who had just received pocket money, ask Roland to pay?

After buying her own food, she directly took out the Berry that Roland gave her, and stood aside waiting, planning to wait for Roland to finish buying before paying the bill.

However, it may be that she hasn't touched money for a long time, or she was too excited, and she accidentally dropped the stack of money in her hand on the ground...

That is money that is simply stacked together. Once it is dropped, it will naturally be scattered all over the place...

Although no one stole it, and with Xiaoyu's help, the money returned to Mei Lin's hand, but when they finished picking it up, Roland had already paid the money.

Mei Lin felt a little disappointed, but she didn't say much. After putting the money back into her pocket, she took the food she just bought and walked towards the door with her head buried.

Why is it toward the door?
This is also the question Roland was wondering just now, but now it has finally been answered. It was told to him by the seller.

Because there is a beautiful flower field nearby, and at the border of the flower field and the village, the villagers made many benches where people can sit and enjoy the view while eating.

In order to meet people's needs, the hotel's lunch is a special bento food, which can be bought and taken there to eat.

Of course, there is no need for tickets or the like to visit there. It can be said that it is very conscientious. Anyway, Roland is very satisfied and looking forward to it.
