Chapter 169
Bubbling away-.
The sound of the stew bubbling up sounded delicious. The savory and mild aroma of meat filled the room.
“I’m sorry about the seating.”
Harces’ wife, Peneia, says as she sets the plates on the desk.
A low table, barely half the height of the existing desk.
It was a hastily made wooden table and chairs for Dojae and Herteias.
“It’s fine, ma’am.”
Dojae smiled brightly, easing Peneia’s concern.
“But you’re the one we should be thanking.”
“It’s truly fine. You needn’t worry about it.”
“Thank you.”
Penia placed the carefully prepared side dishes before Dojae and Herteias, then headed back to the kitchen.
She was busy preparing dinner with Theus.
“So this is Titan home cooking.”
A baked dough dish resembling hard bread, fresh vegetables and a rich sauce in a huge bowl, something like dried radish pickled in something sour.
Along with various side dishes, more and more dishes kept appearing on the table.
Though low in height, the long and wide table soon became completely covered with food.
“Herteias, what are you thinking about so intently?”
Dojae tapped the table lightly, calling out to Herteias who was staring blankly, but he continued to ponder something intently.
Even after arriving in the village, and even when she drew Eurabia’s sacred artifact, the ‘Aegis,’ startling the Titans.
And even when Harques invited him home, Herteias continued to ponder something without showing much reaction.
