Just how good were Soma's winemaking skills?

The plot had already explained that clearly.

Without using divine power, he relied purely on ingredient development, blending, and brewing techniques to create a divine wine that humans couldn't resist.

The adventurers of his Familia worshipped that wine and were controlled by the pleasure it brought.

To drink it again, they had to pay Soma a fixed price. That money was then used to continuously expand the Soma Familia.

But because those adventurers could no longer break free from the wine's grip, Soma grew deeply disappointed.

In the end, the god Soma had long since given up managing his Familia.

Even so, there was no doubt about one thing.

Soma's divine wine was still the pinnacle of Orario.

No one could surpass it.

Speaking of which, Emiya realized he still hadn't tasted Soma's wine since coming to this world.

He would have to find a chance to buy a bottle from the Soma Familia and try it himself.

"Sorry, I didn't explain it clearly."

Joichiro heard Emiya's question and slapped his forehead, then spoke slowly.

"Orario is a world with a massive gap."

"Gods and humans exist on completely different levels."

"The god Soma's winemaking skills are naturally far superior to humans, but setting Soma aside, most human brewing techniques here are extremely outdated."

"They're far behind our hometown."

"More importantly, our hometown has a complete production system."

"The divine wine brewed by Soma exists only in small quantities. It's nowhere near enough to supply all of Orario."

"So we want to bring a batch of good alcohol from our hometown, open up the Orario market, and make our restaurant famous overnight."

"If possible, we even want to bring the brewing production line over."

Emiya finally understood.

"So that's why you came to me."

"That's right." Joichiro nodded. "What do you think?"

Emiya had to admit Joichiro was right.

If modern alcohol were introduced here, it would definitely become popular throughout Orario.

It couldn't compare to Soma's divine wine, but it would easily crush most of the alcohol currently on the market.

And it wasn't limited to alcohol.

Other beverages would also feel novel and exciting.

"Alright," Emiya said. "Send a representative. I'll send them back."

"They can talk directly with Nakiri Senzaemon and try to bring the goods over before opening day."

Joichiro let out a long breath.

"Thank you very much, Emiya-dono."

"You're welcome," Emiya replied, waving his hand. "It's just a few trips."

He glanced around and asked curiously, "By the way, why are you the only one here? Where did everyone else go?"

"Gin took them to the dungeon," Joichiro said.

"The dungeon?"

Emiya was briefly stunned.

If he remembered correctly, the Hestia Familia was more focused on making a living.

Why were they going into the dungeon?

Curiosity?

Joichiro explained calmly, "We need a large amount of ingredients for opening day."

"Gin and the others wanted to find some special food materials in the dungeon."

"And everyone was curious about it, so they went."

"I see," Emiya said. "Aren't you worried about danger?"

"That's thanks to the goddess Hephaestus," Joichiro replied.

"To look after us, she sent Tsubaki-dono along. There shouldn't be any problems."

Tsubaki was the captain of the Hephaestus Familia.

A Level 5 adventurer.

One of the top fighters in all of Orario.

With her there, as long as Gin Dojima and the others didn't do anything stupid, they would be fine.

"Where's Hestia?" Emiya asked.

"She's scouting the market," Joichiro said. "She'll be back tonight."

"I see. You've all been working hard."

"It's not hard," Joichiro said with a smile. "Everyone's happy."

"They're seeing things they've never seen before."

"They all want to shock Orario and make a name for the Hestia Familia."

As he spoke, Joichiro laughed heartily.

It was obvious that the unfamiliar ingredients and unknown possibilities of this world excited him.

"By the way, this is..."

Emiya noticed Joichiro's gaze fall on the Sword Princess.

He introduced her directly.

"This is Ais Wallenstein. She's an adventurer from the Loki Familia and my companion."

"Ais Wallenstein?" Joichiro scratched his head. "That name sounds familiar."

"That's normal," Emiya said. "She's the Sword Princess."

"The Sword Princess..." Joichiro froze for a moment.

Then it clicked.

"The top-tier adventurer of the Loki Familia. The Sword Princess. So it's you."

Even though he hadn't been in this world for long, he'd already heard several famous names.

The Hero.

The Nine-Hell Princess.

Orario's Ultimate Weapon.

The Sword Princess was naturally among them.

"It's an honor to meet you, Ais Wallenstein-dono," Joichiro said sincerely.

"I'm Joichiro, a member of the Hestia Familia."

He extended his right hand.

Ais tilted her head, looking confused.

Joichiro immediately realized his mistake.

Handshakes weren't common here.

He awkwardly withdrew his hand.

But having traveled the world as a chef, he recovered quickly.

"In a little while, the Hestia Familia's first restaurant, Goddess's Feast, will be opening," he said warmly.

"Please come if you have time, Sword Princess."

Ais shook her head.

...

That was a very direct rejection.

Joichiro felt a bit awkward.

"I'll be leaving Orario tomorrow," Ais said calmly. "I won't be able to attend the opening."

Joichiro immediately waved his hands.

"No problem, no problem. If you ever get the chance, please be sure to visit."

"I will," Ais nodded.

Emiya asked, "So the restaurant's name is Goddess's Feast?"

"Who came up with it? It sounds good."

"Everyone discussed it," Joichiro replied. "Hestia gave the final approval."

"I see," Emiya said. "It's a great name."

The two talked for a while longer.

Seeing that Joichiro was still busy with renovations, Emiya didn't linger.

They agreed to meet again in the evening.

Then he left with Ais.

Joichiro watched them go.

Only after Emiya disappeared from sight did he return to directing the workers, adjusting the restaurant until it matched exactly what he envisioned.
