"What's the matter? You look like a walking corpse today."
I leaned against the counter, eyeing Lily. She was wiping a glass, but her movements were sluggish, and dark circles hung heavy under her eyes.
'Is someone else causing trouble?' I thought, my mood instantly darkening. 'Did another noble idiot decide to try his luck?'
"It's nothing of concern, Master," she replied with a weary smile, reading my expression. "Just… getting too many customers recently. We've been fully booked from lunch until closing."
"Oh? Is there any specific reason for that?" I asked, curious. "Our food is good, but a sudden spike like this?"
"It's because of the new amusement park opening," Lily replied, gesturing vaguely toward the city center. "Many people have been visiting from various places—noble children, merchants from foreign territories, tourists. The capital is packed."
"Oh~ That much fanfare just for some amusement park?"
