Jason took Raphtalia with him and soon found a restaurant that looked appealing.

As lunch approached, many customers could be seen walking into the restaurant, accompanied by enticing aromas and lively chatter.

The business seemed to be thriving, suggesting that the restaurant's food was likely quite good.

"This restaurant looks okay. Raphtalia, let's go in!" Jason announced as he led the way, but he quickly noticed that Raphtalia was standing still, showing no sign of moving.

"What's the matter? Do you think this restaurant is too low-grade?"

Following Raphtalia's gaze, Jason spotted a sign hanging beside the restaurant's door. As he read the words, he immediately understood his mistake. The sign read: "Demi humans and dogs are not allowed to enter."

Although it was written in a different world, as a summoned hero, Jason could instantly translate the words in his mind.

"I didn't mean to cause you trouble. Should I find another place, or should we eat outside?"

At that moment, Raphtalia tugged at Jason's clothes, a hint of fear evident in her expression. The life of a slave had instilled a sense of inferiority in her, especially when she saw such a sign.

However, Jason was determined to stand by her side.

So he stepped forward and ripped the sign down.

"Snapped!"

With a crisp sound, the sign shattered into pieces in Jason's hands, which he then tossed into the trash can beside him.

"You read it wrong. It clearly says that demihumans are welcome! Now let's go in!"

"But... it's not like that at all," she protested.

"I said yes, so you have to believe what your brother says."

Jason took Raphtalia's little hand confidently and pushed open the restaurant door.

"Jinglingling~~~"

The bell hanging on the door rang pleasantly as it swung open.

"Welcome!" came the enthusiastic voice of the clerk inside.

But the moment the clerk caught sight of Raphtalia, the smile on his face slowly froze.

The other guests in the restaurant cast strange glances their way.

"Damn it... why do lowly creatures like demihumans come here?"

"It's really bad luck. It ruins my appetite. How can I enjoy my lunch?"

"Yeah, the clerk should hurry up and throw that demihuman out!"

The murmurs filled the air, and some guests made no effort to hide their disgusted looks.

Seeing this, Raphtalia huddled behind Jason and lowered her head. "As expected, I should just leave. I don't want to trouble you. I'm satisfied just being here."

"Trouble? I don't find it troublesome at all. Listen... I won't let anyone look down on you, not even the king. After all, you're mine now. So don't lower your head; hold your chin up. My person must stand tall; you wouldn't want to disgrace me, would you?"

Jason gently rubbed Raphtalia's little head and spoke firmly.

Feeling a newfound sense of security, Raphtalia's hesitance melted away, and she raised her head slightly.

However, just as Jason took a few steps into the store, the clerk blocked their way.

"My guest, I'm really sorry, but our store has a policy stating that guests and dogs are not allowed inside. So..."

Before the clerk could finish speaking, Jason had already reached out and grabbed his face.

With a terrifying grip, the clerk's cheeks made ominous cracking sounds, causing onlookers to worry that he might crush his face at any moment.

"So? What does that mean? Do you think I need to ask for the opinion of a servant like you on who I bring with me and where I eat? Who do you think you are? Not even the king dares to stop me, understand?"

A murderous aura radiated from Jason's body, causing the air around them to chill and making it hard to breathe.

In severe pain, the clerk could only scream, unable to respond to Jason.

Just when it seemed the clerk might pass out, a middle-aged man with a slightly portly build rushed over, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and spoke tremulously:

"I... I am the owner of this restaurant. I'm truly sorry for this inconvenience, sir. It's due to my subordinate's ignorance. Please forgive us. How about this... lunch is on the house today. Choose whatever you want to eat."

In the presence of Jason's intimidating demeanor, the boss found himself stuttering in his fear.

"You are wise!"

Jason released the clerk, and just as the owner and the clerk let out a sigh of relief, Jason backhanded the clerk across the face.

The clerk flew across the room, his teeth scattering into the air, stopping only when they hit the wall. The entire restaurant fell silent.

Regardless of the clerk's state, his face now swollen beyond recognition, Jason cared little whether he had knocked him unconscious or not.

"This is the consequence of not knowing when to keep silent. Do you have any objections to my punishment?"

Jason stared straight at the boss with murderous eyes.

"No...no...no comment!"

The boss hurriedly stammered in response.

"very good!"

Jason nodded, and led Raphtalia to continue walking towards the store.

All the customers at the scene turned their heads in unison, and they didn't dare to look at Jason at all. They didn't want to be the next clerk with the incomparably domineering and powerful Jason in front of them.

However, Jason did not find an empty table to sit down, but came to a table with two people sitting.

One of them was a man with a round figure, a fat head and big ears, with blond hair and several gold rings on his hands. At least he looked like a rich man.

In front of the man sat a woman with a good figure and a long red dress.

From the point of view of appearance alone, the two are completely out of proportion.

"That's Lord Baron. What does that person want to do when he walks in front of Lord Baron?"

"Could it be that he's looking for trouble? That's the Baron. Is he crazy?"

"Don't worry about it, don't look at it, so as not to cause trouble to the upper body, didn't you see it just now? The clerk was slapped and slapped away. This is definitely a ruthless person."

"It doesn't matter if you are a ruthless person, Lord Baron is a nobleman in this country!"

With Jason arrival, the surrounding discussion sounded again.

But when Jason turned his head to scan the store, their discussions stopped immediately, and they ate their food in silence with their heads down, for fear of getting into trouble.

"You said just now that you lost your appetite after seeing Raphtalia, didn't you?"

Seeing that the discussion had stopped, Jason turned his head again, looked at the man in front of him who was called Lord Baron, and spoke slowly, with a completely undisguised killing intent.

"You said just now that you lost your appetite after seeing Raphtalia, didn't you?"

Jason looked at the so-called Lord Baron, and as he spoke, his tone was harsh, laced with a palpable murderous intent.

"Raphtalia? No... you may have misheard me; I have a good appetite!"

The baron glanced nervously at Raphtalia while hastily shoveling steak into his mouth to prove his point, trying to exhibit that he indeed had an appetite.

While others might be oblivious, he knew all too well who stood before him: Jason, the Shield Hero. This was a man who even dared to confront the king of this country, a legend who had once left the former queen utterly humiliated. Jason's strength was fearsome; calling him a "hero" seemed almost trivial—demon king might be a more fitting title.

As a minor baron, he felt utterly powerless in the presence of such overwhelming force.

"Really? You mean... my ears are deceiving me?"

Jason slammed his hand down on the table in front of the baron. The plate vibrated with the impact, sending ripples of trepidation through the hearts of all the guests in the vicinity.

Everyone in the restaurant felt a wave of fear wash over them; some, too frightened to remain, hurriedly abandoned their untouched meals.

The owner of the establishment, witnessing this spectacle, felt the weight of his lost business but remained silent, afraid to provoke the situation further.

As for the Lord Baron, he trembled uncontrollably, beads of cold sweat rolling down his back. He felt on the verge of tears as he stammered, "N-No... I definitely didn't mean that! Please have mercy, my lord! I-I truly didn't intend to offend!"

"You can eat to your heart's content, but you must watch your words. Since you've spoken carelessly, you will face the consequences. Now tell me, will you punish yourself, or do I get to do it?"

Jason made his intentions unmistakably clear, showing no deference to the nobleman, regardless of his status.

"Hey... is he out of his mind? He's actually threatening the baron!"

"Doesn't he fear retaliation? Nobles like him can easily summon armies!"

"Forget it, we're nobody to intervene in this mess."

The guests around them were taken aback, shocked at Jason's audacious words.

But, to the astonishment of all, the baron raised his hand and slapped himself across the face, crying out, "I'm sorry!"

"Just one?"

Jason's voice was icy as he stared at the baron.

Under that piercing gaze, the baron continued to slap himself repeatedly, his face swelling until it became almost twice its normal size—limited only by his physical inability to continue.

Some might even prefer this form of punishment over being on the receiving end of Jason's wrath, where the consequences would likely be far worse.

"Alright, for the sake of you understanding your mistake, I'll let you off this time."

With that said, Jason surprisingly put his hands on the baron's shoulders, adopting a more amicable demeanor.

"Thank you... so much... uh...@#¥!"

The baron's words were slurred, barely recognizable through his swollen cheeks.

All the guests in the restaurant stood dumbfounded at the scene unfolding before them.

The once-majestic baron, cowed into submission, was expressing gratitude to his threatening adversary; it was a sight that felt utterly surreal.

"What in the world is happening?"

"Who is this person? Why does the baron cower before him like that?"

"Could he be a secret son of the king?"

"No way! The king abhors demihumans; it makes no sense for his son to hang around them."

"I remember now! The king summoned several brave warriors to combat the disaster wave recently. Could he be one of them?"

"Only a brave hero would dare to act like this! Wait... looking at his gear, he must be the legendary Shield Hero."

"What? The Shield Hero! One of my brothers works in the palace; he mentioned the king was incensed over his actions and even smashed his belongings in anger, but there was nothing he could do."

"Even the king can't handle the Shield Hero? That explains why the baron is trembling in fear."

"What kind of brave man is this? It's as if the Demon King has returned!"

Even in this strange world, the human tendency to gossip was alive and well, and the guests buzzed with speculation.

Just as the murmurs escalated, Jason's voice cut through the chatter once more.

"Hey... isn't it extremely rude to speak poorly of others behind their backs? And I distinctly remember... you... you... and you, all mentioned how you felt disgusted by seeing Raphtalia?"

At the mention of this, those individuals scrambled from their seats in panic.

Using the baron as a cautionary example, they fell to their knees, striking themselves in contrition.

"Sorry!"

"Please forgive us!"

At that moment, Raphtalia tugged at Jason's sleeve, and a loud gurgle echoed from his stomach.

"Forget it, forget it, I'll let you off this time. But if it happens again, your family might need to think about buying a coffin."

With that, Jason took Raphtalia's hand and guided her toward an empty table in the corner of the restaurant.

"Thank you, Lord Shield Hero!" Raphtalia expressed her gratitude, relief washing over her as they settled down.

The other guests quickly returned to their seats, eager to leave the scene behind, tossing some coins onto their tables before hastily exiting the establishment.

Sitting at the dining table, Raphtalia felt a mix of emotions swirling in her heart. She was touched by Jason's willingness to stand up for her, yet she was also concerned that his actions might lead to trouble. Her presence could have been a mistake.

"What's wrong?" Jason asked, noticing her restless demeanor.

"Lord Jason, is there really no problem? That was a nobleman, the Lord Baron!" Raphtalia finally voiced her worries after some contemplation.

"Don't worry. Did you see how terrified the baron was just now? He knows better than to mess with me. I'm powerful enough that they'd think twice before challenging me. Besides, didn't I tell you to call me Jason, not 'Lord'?"

Jason flashed a broad smile and flexed his arms, showcasing his toned muscles as if to reinforce his point.

"Hmm... Brother Jason!"

Finally smiling again at his words, Raphtalia began to grasp the meaning of 'powerful' in a new light—an idea that seemed to take root in her mind like an unshakeable virus.

"I'm very hungry. If you want to order anything, just go ahead. Remember, today the boss is treating us."

"I... I want that!"

Raphtalia scanned the room and pointed toward a child enjoying a meal at a nearby table.

"Not a problem, boss!" Jason called out, his voice booming across the dining area.

"What can I get for you?"

The owner of the restaurant darted over with an enthusiasm that was almost comical, reaching their table with impressive speed.

"Get Raphtalia the same dish as that kid, and for me, I'll have a meat set!" Jason ordered confidently.

"Coming right up!" The boss nodded eagerly before rushing back to the kitchen.

Before long, the boss returned, balancing several plates precariously on his arms.

Raphtalia's meal consisted of a children's set meal with a refreshing glass of juice, while Jason's spread featured several beautifully arranged steaks, garnished with a touch of vegetables, alongside a glass of wine.

"Can I really eat all of this?" Raphtalia asked, her eyes wide with astonishment as she took in the exquisite lunch laid before her.

"Of course you can!"

Before Jason could say much more, Raphtalia eagerly reached out and began to shove the food into her mouth with her hands.

While it might have seemed a bit uncouth to eat without utensils, Raphtalia had endured a life of hardships and slavery before, and now, simply having food in front of her felt like a dream come true.
