Chapter 35: I'm Not Going to Be King Anymore!
Endure. I had to endure.
Gilgamesh, dressed head to toe in gold, should still have enough money to pay for every dish on the menu. As for things like "I want one too," she would pretend she hadn't heard them. For the sake of money, she had to restrain herself.
"Sorry, I'm not for sale."
"Hahahaha, I know. I did it on purpose. The King of Heroes' joke—funny, isn't it?"
The corner of Artoria's eye twitched. "F-Funny."
Even if it wasn't funny, she had to force herself to find it funny. The staff had already joined in with laughter.
"Hahahahahaha! Bring food and wine for the King of Conquerors and me."
Since the customers were being so rude, she could only serve them properly. If they finished everything, fine—but if they couldn't, those two were dead!
"Hahahaha, I am greatly pleased. Take this as your reward!"
Gilgamesh pulled countless gemstones from his armor and scattered them across the floor. The staff were dumbfounded. There were customers like this?
This was simply... wonderful! With money, one really could do whatever one wanted!
Artoria wore an irritated yet polite smile, barely maintaining her dignity.
"Very well, honored guests."
The food and wine were brought out. Since there was so much, they had even switched to a larger table. One plate was replaced with another after it was finished. In short, it was extravagance on an extraordinary scale.
"So, honored guests, do you have any other requests?"
"Of course. Sing me a song."
"I can't sing."
"I know. That's why I'm asking you to sing, hahahaha—"
The other staff members immediately cooperated, laughing along. Though they didn't find it funny either.
Artoria clenched her fists without exploding, but countless # marks had already appeared
