Sakurajima Mai also hesitated.
However, she wasn't worried about the price; instead, she was concerned that Rosen might be overspending to show off.
After all, when she visited Rosen's home earlier, it was clear he wasn't wealthy and was all alone, without parents.
If it really came down to it, she would pay the bill after they finished eating.
Having been a celebrity for several years, she still had a good amount of savings in her personal stash.
Supporting a man wouldn't be a problem.
Rosen merely smiled at this.
Having plundered thousands of tons of gold, there wasn't a single corporate group in this world wealthier than him.
"Alright, let's go in and eat."
Rosen chuckled softly.
But then he had a thought.
In the DanMachi world, the Main Gods were supported by their Familia members, but here, he was the one supporting his Familia.
After the three of them were seated,
Yotsuya Miko looked at the Wagyu beef on the grill, her appetite greatly stirred.
If she didn't have to maintain her lady-like image, she would be drooling by now.
Just then, Rosen heard a surprised voice.
"Miko, how are you here?!"
The sound of small leather shoes echoed on the rough flagstone floor.
Rosen and the two women looked up, then saw a cute girl with orange short hair, wearing a white shirt and a pleated skirt, looking at Yotsuya Miko with a surprised expression.
Although the girl's attire wasn't revealing, her figure was excellent, with two prominent assets hidden beneath her clothes that were quite eye-catching, and her fair skin was like milk.
"Huh? Xiao Hua, why are you here?"
Their synchronized tone proved they had a good relationship.
Yotsuya Miko's expression was a little surprised.
To actually run into a classmate while eating out?
"That's what I should be asking, Miko. I already told you yesterday on my phone if you wanted to come to this buffet restaurant with me this weekend, but you said you were busy today and declined, right?"
At this point, Yurikawa Hana looked suspiciously at Rosen.
Then her expression changed, and she quickly ran to Yotsuya Miko, whispering, "Miko, quickly tell me the truth, is this guy your boyfriend?"
"No wonder you said you didn't have time today; turns out you were on a date with your boyfriend!"
Her voice was low, almost only audible to Yotsuya Miko.
But Rosen and Sakurajima Mai both had excellent hearing, so they heard it clearly.
"No, no, he's not, Lord Rosen isn't my boyfriend."
Yotsuya Miko's face immediately flushed red, and she fidgeted with her hands on her lap.
If a stranger had asked, her reaction wouldn't have been like this.
But having explicitly declined Yurikawa Hana's invitation and then meeting her at the very restaurant they were supposed to visit together, it was both awkward and embarrassing.
"It's alright, Miko!"
Yurikawa Hana suddenly placed both hands on Miko's shoulders, a determined look on her face.
"No need to explain to me. Explaining is concealing, and concealing is the truth! As your best friend, I support you in pursuing your own happiness!"
After saying that, Yurikawa Hana even gave her a thumbs-up.
Yotsuya Miko was on the verge of tears upon hearing this.
If it were true, that would be great, but the key was that it wasn't true.
Yotsuya Miko looked at Rosen for help.
But the latter only smiled from the side, offering no explanation.
However, Yotsuya Miko quickly had an idea.
Isn't Lord Rosen currently looking for new Familia members?
Perhaps Yurikawa Hana is unexpectedly suitable?
After all, in Yotsuya Miko's eyes, her friend Yurikawa Hana was enveloped in a layer of golden flame and inherently possessed a spirit-attracting constitution.
Since she awakened her Yin-Yang Eyes, she often saw ghosts entanglement around her.
However, she was powerless to help and could only pretend not to see them.
Although Xiao Hua wasn't entangled with spirits today, if she passed through a place with many spirits, she would definitely become entangled.
To save her good friend from dire straits,
Yotsuya Miko proactively said, "Xiao Hua, it's really not what you think. I'm doing this for another reason."
"What reason?"
"There are too many people here. I'll explain it to you in detail when we're somewhere less crowded."
"Huh? Oh, alright."
Yurikawa Hana pouted, but quickly requested to sit with Miko.
Rosen had no objections.
Yurikawa Hana's life energy was extraordinary, making her quite suitable for a Familia contract.
Since Yotsuya Miko was actively helping to recruit, there was no reason for him to push her away.
After all, what man would refuse the addition of a big-chested beauty?
