Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system Chapter 832 - 817 Magic Plane 25

"It’s already so late." Upon hearing this, Xia Yue imdiately sat up and hurriedly wanted to go out.

[Indeed, it’s late, they’re already up and waiting for you outside.] The System reminded her.

After hearing this, Xia Yue beca even more rushed, put on her shoes, quickly tied her hair up, and went out the door.

Yan Mo and the others were sitting outside, drinking tea.

"No need to rush." Seeing Xia Yue’s appearance, Yan Mo knew she was in a hurry.

"Sorry, I slept too well and lost track of ti," Xia Yue said sowhat embarrassedly.

"It’s fine, we also just got up not long ago. Have so tea; this place has good black tea," Yan Mo said as he poured a cup of tea for her.

"Thanks, I’m just thirsty," Xia Yue replied, taking the cup, blowing on it, and finding it wasn’t very hot, she gulped it down in one go.

"Not bad." After finishing her drink, Xia Yue set down the cup and sat next to Xia Xi.

"What’s for dinner?" Xia Yue asked, looking at them.

"Do you guys want to go out to eat or eat here?" asked Yan Mo, looking at them. They had developed a slight psychological aversion to the food here, considering that what they ate on the way here didn’t seem very appetizing.

"This is a big city; the taste of food should be good. We can give it a try, maybe there will be different experiences," suggested Xia Xi after thinking it over.

"Then let’s eat outside, and if it’s not good, we can co back and eat sothing else," Wei Se said.

"It’s good to be willing to try new things," Mo Si noted.

"Then let’s go, if we’re late we’ll miss the alti, and who knows if there will still be food available," Yan Mo said as he stood up.

"Let’s go, ti to eat," Xia Yue also got up.

The five of them left the room together, made sure the door was locked, and then went down to the Inn’s Dining Hall.

Upon entering the Dining Hall, it operated on a self-service model where you pick whatever you want to eat and then pay at the cashier.

Each with a plate in hand, Xia Yue and her friends went along, making their selections.

"This at is totally raw, this fish looks good, let’s grab one to try, and this at looks cooked enough to try," said Xia Yue, examining the dishes and discussing with the others while choosing what she deed edible.

"This at is good, this is also alright, this vegetable salad doesn’t look good, but this bread slls pretty nice, I’ll take a few," Wei Se made his selection, but without any vegetables.

Yan Mo and Mo Si picked out large chunks of at and then selected so fruit and bread.

They found an empty spot to sit after paying for their choices.

"It looks like we didn’t bring any juice or water with us," observed Xia Yue, looking at what everyone had brought over.

"Get a jug of juice from your stash, I’ll bring over so empty cups, and we can just pour it in," Yan Mo told her.

"Alright," agreed Xia Yue with a nod.

Yan Mo got up to fetch four empty cups, while Xia Yue sneakily poured out the juice. After filling four cups, she tucked it away.

"Let’s try and see," said Xia Yue, eyeing the food on everyone’s plates, prompting them to start tasting.

"Eat," Wei Se said, and taking his knife and fork, began to dine.

Seeing her begin, the rest followed suit and started eating.

"This roasted at tastes good, has a fragrant aroma, and the texture is tender," exclaid Xia Yue, pleasantly surprised after a bite, finally sothing that wasn’t unpleasant.

"My at isn’t bad either, dium rare, kind of makes think of steak," Yan Mo said as she speared the piece of at she had just been eating.

"This ti, the flavor is way tastier than the previous restaurant we visited," Wei Se comnted.

"As expected of a place that can keep running in a big city, they must have so skills," Xia Xi remarked.

"The portions of at here also seem bigger than at the last restaurant, and for so much more at, it’s cheaper," Mo Si observed.

"It could also be a different variety, otherwise it wouldn’t make sense for dining to be cheaper in a big city," Xia Yue suggested.

"That’s possible," Mo Si considered and felt that it could indeed be the case.

"These vegetables aren’t good, the taste and texture are odd," Xia Xi said after picking a lot of vegetables and tasting each.

"Eat so fruit, the fruit here is good," Mo Si offered so of the fruits from his plate to her.

"Thanks," Xia Xi accepted without hesitation.

"The fruit really is good, sour and sweet, perfect to freshen up after having too much at," Xia Yue added while taking so fruit and eating a few pieces.

"Dropping so of this juice onto the at is pretty good too," Yan Mo showed her how to do it.

"Let try, this fish tasted a bit bland just now, I’ll add so juice on it and see," Xia Yue said as she took a piece of fruit, squeezed the juice over the fish, watched the fish absorb the juice, and then took a bite.

"It tastes good, has its own unique flavor," Xia Yue said after tasting a bite, indicating she thought it was decent.

Apart from the vegetables they picked, the five of them finished off the rest of the food.

After they had their fill, they thought about going out to explore, only to be told that the city had a night curfew, and if patrolling soldiers caught them, they would end up in jail.

The five of them had no choice but to return to their room.

"Since there’s a curfew, we’ll just have to go out tomorrow and take a look, or ask soone from the inn," Xia Xi said, sitting in the living room of the suite she and Mo Si were staying in, brewing a pot of tea and discussing their plans.

"It might be better to inquire with the inn’s staff," Xia Xi suggested.

"Why?" Xia Yue asked, not understanding.

"You can’t know the character of people outside, maybe what they say is just to deceive you. But with the inn’s staff, there is so assurance, since they have to keep running their business. If they deceive guests, their reputation would be ruined. This ans fewer people would stay at the inn. Therefore, for the sake of their reputation, they usually won’t lie, though they might be vague about so details, which we can resolve with a little tip," Xia Xi explained.

"Oh, I see," Xia Yue finally understood.

"Then let’s go and talk to the inn’s staff tomorrow," Yan Mo agreed, finding her reasoning sound and simpler.

The next morning, after they woke up and had breakfast at the Dining Hall, they approached the front desk.

"Good morning, dear guests. How may I assist you today?" The receptionist greeted them with a smile, anticipating they needed help.

"We want to know what’s the fastest way to get to Hera City from here," Yan Mo asked her.

"That depends on how you want to travel. If you have sufficient funds, there is the option of taking a Teleportation Array directly to Hera City, which will cost one hundred thousand Gold Coins.

Another option is to travel by Flying Device or Flying Beast. There’s a transport station in the city where you can check out various options. Each type’s speed cos with a different price, allowing you to choose at your discretion.

These are the fastest ways to reach Hera City," the receptionist explained with a smile.

"One hundred thousand! That’s so expensive, do people actually use it?" Xia Yue asked in surprise.

"The wealthy nobles do," the receptionist replied.

"Okay then, let’s head to the transport station. How do we get there?" Xia Yue inquired.
