“Okay, lunch time!”

Compared to the frantic work they’d done in Camellia, grinding up some herbs wasn’t hard at all. Sara was a bit nervous being all alone in a place where she didn’t really know anyone though, so she was relieved when lunchtime finally came around.

However, this was where things got difficult. The first hurdle when it came to working in a new place was figuring out what everyone did for lunch. Did everyone bring their lunch or buy it? Did they all sit around a table or eat on their own? Or did they go out to eat? Of course, since going out for lunch would have knocked Sara out in her old life, she’d only had two options in Japan: bring lunch or buy it on the way to work.

While she was considering all this, someone went around and passed out familiar-looking baskets from a storage box that was sitting in a corner of the room.

“Oh, those are the lunch boxes from the Guild.”

“Yep. Here’s one for you.”

“Oh! Thank you!”

Even Sara got one. She set it on the table where she’d been sorting plants earlier and removed the lid. Warm air and a delicious scent wafted out from the box.

“The food comes out of the box hot. I guess they actually do that in some places.”

The lunch boxes in Rosa had been sold cold originally, but since Sara started offering her warming up service when she sold them, by the time she left town, they were starting to be sold warm.

“It’s just here. The ones at the Hunter’s Guild are sold cold,” one of the apothecaries told her. “Apothecaries tend to forget to eat when they’re brewing potions.”

“I guess that makes sense.”

Chris and Ted had made sure to eat properly at least, Sara thought. They were both completely uninterested in anything but apothecary work though, so she could easily see what her new coworker meant.

“That’s why the first thing Master Caren did when she took over here was take a fee for lunch and make sure everyone got one. She says it makes no sense for an apothecary to be unhealthy.”

It was shrewd of her to take a fee for it, but since lunches would cost fifteen hundred gil per person, even if you returned the box, it would be pretty pricey to feed ten people every day for free.

“She negotiated with the vendors to put them in a storage bag while they were still hot in exchange for buying them in bulk regularly, so now we always get a warm lunch. Nobody wants to take the time to go out to eat anyway.”

“It’s nice when they’re hot, isn’t it?” Sara commented, munching on her warm lunch. “I don’t get why the vendors don’t just supply them to the Hunter’s Guild hot, too. There were a lot of Hunters who wanted their lunches heated up in Rosa.”

“Sounds like they could if there was demand from the Guild.”

Some of the other apothecaries joined in on the conversation, evidently having been listening in.
