《World of swords: a new beginning.》Dreaming about food

Chapter 20
I woke up heavily and sore. The trip outside may not have been the most exercise I have had, but it was most definitely the most mentally fatiguing. The mind does unusual things to the body…
After going my daily duties I went toward the training grounds to do my exercises. I hope kina would be there so we can go out again and hunt. It was the most memorable thing I did with kina. I would like to do it again. Even if it was a bit nerve racking. Luckily for me she was. And we planned to hunt later. Kina had a bit of work to do.
Speaking of later I wonder what I will eat later. I have had the rations from the city guard during my training, and that gets boring and old fast. So I steeled my resolve to ask splitting wind about it. He was lifting weights. Never bothered to do so my self as I wasn't trying to max out my strength.
“Hey splitting wind, do. you know of any places we can eat out? The guard rations are not exactly very fulfilling…”
Splitting wind releases a chuckle as he puts down the weights “sure there is a place that serves great sandwiches, but they are not open today.” He responded with a pondering look.
“Thanks a bunch. I'll ask kina about it when we go out to hunt.” I said as I waved him off.
“Good luck sam” he said while suppressing the beginning of his hearty laugh.
A few hours passed while I focused on training and reminiscing about my past. When was he last time I had a sandwich? Middle school? I don't know. I stopped eating them with the introduction of other foods and because I wanted cheeseburgers more. I shivered at the thought. I was already used to not eating sandwiches but a cheeseburger? The most American food I know of? I need to make one for myself some time. Maybe it will help preserve my American culture…

With thoughts like this and sadness encroaching my mind the hours passed. Unlike the last time we hunted, no gigologs appeared to harass us thankfully. I didn't really want to face my trauma again so soon. It already took me too much the last time.
That night I dreamt dreams about home.
-the next morning-
I woke up with a slight start. Monster soda cans coming after you is not very pleasant. At least it was morning. I decided that I was going to take a light day today, i was going out after all didn't want to small too bad…
The day went by quickly and soon I dressed up with some of the nicer cloths I had. Not much I could really do about it though I didn't exactly have a salary until I went out hunting. And that wasn't even consistent…
I walked out into our training area. It has become a sort of meeting place for us. Kina splitting wind and Louis were standing around talking. Well kina wasn't. She was just kinda there.
While walking up I waved to them “hey guys I am excited to not eat tasteless bread!” I said while smiling enthusiastically.
“Hey sam, we were talking about your future training! Whaddaya say about adding the weights?” Splitting wind seemed a little to excited about that…
“Um no… I don't think that would help me in any way in the future. Well not in combat.” I said shakily at the start.
Splitting wind gave a low growl while giving me a sad stare.
“I told you he would say that. Besides I agree with him.” Louis said.
Even if I could use strength while pulling the bow it's not like I needed insane strength. The hardest part about it was just keeping it pulled.

“Well I am ready to go eat something. I am sure kina would agree.” I said while aiming a fully loaded smile to her.
Luckily she actually seemed to want to eat as well and nodded. Splitting wind actually gave a defeated whistle and us 4 walked toward our destination.
Unlike the previous time outside, I got to see the waterfall that separated the inner and outer districts. The restaurant was at a section facing the waterfall I thought was was pretty cool.
However when I noticed the food they were serving my mind kinda froze. Hamburger i Said in a mumble that barely caught kina’s attention.
I don't know when it happened but I actually started crying then. Kina flipped out and didn't know what to do while that flipped splitting wind out. I guess my unnormal action chained with kina's unusual behavior set him off. Louis failed at first to calm them down but eventually he succeeded. his plan to calm me down was to use kina. The best she could do was pat me on my back sometime after that I just burst out laughing at their shenanigans. It would be a good night tonight.

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.
