Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 465: The Weak and Helpless Saiyan in Need of Protection

[An offer you can't refuse?]

Luo Qixi pursed her lips. She felt that if she asked, she would probably hear some inhumane words from the rich kid in front of her, so she decided not to delve into this topic: "You can't be full just by eating meat. Let's go to the cafeteria together. At least I'll pay for the bread and other things."

Broly did not refuse and followed Roxy, who was not much taller than him, to the cafeteria of Ranoa University of Magic.

"This academy has two cafeterias. One is a high-end cafeteria that only the rich and powerful can afford, and the other is an ordinary cafeteria for common students. I don't have much money, so I can only treat you to the food in the ordinary cafeteria."

Broly wanted to take out his purse again, but after thinking about it, he gave up.

Judging from the character the demon girl showed after coming into contact with Roxy, she probably would not use his money.

And her personality should be the type that doesn't like to owe others anything.

Broly had a good idea for this.

"Hey, you haven't eaten yet?"

In the ordinary cafeteria of Lanoa Magic University, Lokixi's forehead was sweating a little, and she couldn't help but ask the boy opposite her whose stomach seemed like a bottomless pit.

"Not yet, it's just beginning."

Broly held a piece of bread in one hand and a chicken leg in the other. Next to him was a pile of plates with clean food. Opposite him was a demon girl who was sweating profusely.

Even though the prices in an ordinary cafeteria were not expensive, Loki's not-so-full wallet could not withstand the Saiyan boy's treatment.

"If I change my mind and say that we should pay our own bills, is it too late?"

Luo Qixi asked.

"Of course I have time. Although the dried meat I took out is of very good quality and may cost two Milis silver coins per piece, it doesn't matter. After all, I am richer."

Broly said yes.

Luo Qixi: "..."

She did not doubt the value of the dried meat she ate.

"Forget it then. Although I'm not as rich as you, I can still afford to treat you to a meal if I grit my teeth. Just enjoy your meal."

How could she go back on her word when the boy said such things?

"Okay, you can eat too. Here, Feng meat jerky."

Broly put down the chicken leg, wiped his hands, and handed over another piece of dried meat as thick as a baby's arm.

Luo Qixi ate with tears in her eyes. The chewy jerky paired with the soft freshly baked bread tasted really delicious, but it was also really expensive.

Today, the recommendation letter is due.

But the tuition fees that were waived were spent here.

I want to cry, and it tastes so good...

[Forget it, just treat it as an indulgence. At worst, I can take some time off and go to the Adventurer's Guild to take on some high-paying commissions...]

Luo Qixi comforted herself internally, and she ate dinner with both painstaking care and deliciousness.

"By the way, do you know where your dormitory is?"

After eating and drinking, Luo Qixi wiped her mouth with a handkerchief and asked.

“I don’t have a dormitory.”

Broly shook his head.

"So where are you staying tonight?"

Luo Qixi was a little curious.

"Are you going to move back to the girls' dormitory with me?"

She asked warily.

"May I?"

Hearing this, Broly's eyes lit up and he asked.

"That's definitely not possible!"

The demon girl's voice was a little loud, attracting the attention of people around her.

Although this place has attracted a lot of attention because of Broly's terrifying appetite.

"Oh, then I'll go back to the hotel in the center of the city. I've already rented a suite there."

Broly was a little disappointed, but he still explained it.

"It's getting late now. Will your somewhat scary guard come over to pick you up later?"

Luo Qixi looked out the window and saw the sky had become completely dark, but she asked again.

"Did you say Orsted?"

"I don't know his name, but he's the one with the silver hair and sunglasses."

"Orsted is not my guard, he is my friend. He will not come to pick me up."

"Then you'll go back alone?"

"Ah."

Luo Qi looked at the boy's innocent face opposite her and couldn't help but sigh.

"Forget it, I'll take you back."

"Eh?"

"Although the magic city of Sharia has good security, there are still bad guys at night. If you go back alone and something happens to you, I will feel guilty. Just think of this as a reward for my having dinner with you tonight and taking advantage of you."

Broly spent a lot of money on Roxy's meal tonight, but the wind jerky that Roxy ate was worth more than this meal.

Of course, now Roxy is just worried about a child walking alone at night, so she is looking for a reason to send Broly back.

"it is good."

In this regard, Broly did not reject the girl's kindness. Although he did not need her protection, he needed time to spend with her.

"Ms. Lokishi."

On the way back, Broly called out to the demon girl walking next to him.

"what happened?"

Luo Qixi turned her head in confusion, and under the cold light of the magic street lamp, the girl's profile was very beautiful.

"I want to know, how can you accept a partner who is younger than you?"

Broly asked seriously.

"Same thing. To be honest, I don't really care about the age of the partner, but I care about the appearance of the partner."

"Does it make any difference?"

"Do you know the Migludia tribe?"

"know."

"Then you should also know that people of our clan will always remain somewhat childish after they grow up, right?"

"That's not clear."

Broly shook his head.

“Anyway, because our clan looks more like children, I suffered a lot when I was an adventurer outside.

Even now, there are always people who look down on me because of my appearance. I feel distressed about this and I also don’t like the way I look.

Therefore, I basically won’t consider someone who looks younger than me, even if the other person is older than me.

This is my personal aesthetic issue, not for any other reason, so I won’t consider you until you grow up and become an adult.”

This answer made Broly a little depressed. He only had ninety days to grow in this world. Once the time was up, his body would return to its original state. In other words, it was basically impossible for him to grow up in this world.

"Then is it possible for me to change your aesthetic?"

Broly asked again.

"I think you'll just be wasting your time."

Luo Qixi denied the boy's words with affirmative words.

"Anyway, I will find a way, either by growing up or changing your taste. I will never give up on conquering you."

The strategy cannot be judged by appearances. As long as the other party's happiness value has not decreased, it means there is a chance, even if the other party is rejecting you now.

"Well, okay, then you just do your best."

Luo Qixi scratched her face with her right index finger. She felt a little weird when a child declared that he wanted to conquer her in front of her.

To describe it, it's probably the feeling of being speechless, but also a little sad, "Ha, it turns out that someone wants me, even though it's a little kid who wants me."

"Master Broly, we have arrived. I will take my leave now. Well, drink more milk. Maybe this way you will grow up quickly."

Luo Qixi didn't take the boy's words seriously. When she said goodbye to him, she just mentioned to him a little about what she had done in the past to grow up.

"Want some milk?"

Broly watched the demon girl walk away, thoughtful.

. . . . .

In the hotel room, Orsted sat cross-legged on the bed and meditated. He had been in meditation for the whole day.

Although he knew that he would not be able to kill the Human-God in this round, always maintaining sufficient magic power was a personal habit he developed in the process of dealing with the Human-God.

"Click~"

At this time, the door was opened.

When Orsted opened his eyes, he saw Broly walking in carrying a wooden barrel as big as his body.

"What are you holding?"

He asked out of curiosity.

"It's milk."

Broly replied.

"Do you like drinking this?"

Orsted was a little confused.

In his impression, the drink that boys prefer should be berry juice.

As for milk, it's not that he doesn't drink it, but I've seen him drink it less often. "I don't like milk, it tastes a bit bland."

Broly shook his head.

"If you don't like it, then why did you buy a big bucket?"

Orsted was even more surprised.

"Luo Qixi said that drinking milk can help you grow up faster. I want to grow up quickly so that I can capture her."

Broly explained why he bought the milk, then he took off the lid of the large barrel, picked up the cup on the table, and started drinking the milk.

Unsweetened milk has a milky flavor, but that's just how it tastes, and Broly prefers something with flavor.

Orsted looked at Broly, pouring cup of milk into his mouth one after another, and his expression became a little strange.

Even he knew that milk was only a nutritional supplement, helping those who could develop to do so. But for those who could not develop, it would be the same no matter how much milk they drank.

This is just cow's milk, not a magic potion. Even if it is a magic potion, there is probably no magic potion in this world that can make people grow up suddenly.

He told Broly about this.

"So, even if I drink a lot of milk, I won't suddenly grow up?"

"At least, in your case, that should be the case."

Orsted nodded.

No matter when he saw Broly, the boy's age had not changed much from when he first met him.
"Then do you have any good way to make people grow up quickly?"

Broly consulted Orsted.

"I know a secret technique that can make people grow up quickly."

"What kind of secret technique is it?"

Broly didn't expect that Orsted really had an idea, so he quickly asked about it.

"It is the secret technique in my body. When I was transported from the ancient times to the 330th year of the Jialong calendar, I had already skipped my childhood and adolescence and directly entered my current adult state."

Orsted said so.

"Then you can also help me with this secret technique."

Broly requested.

"I'm sorry, Broly. I only know that this secret technique exists in this world, but I don't know how to perform it."

Orsted shook his head.

Broly: "..."

"But I can help you look for it. Among the dragon relics in this world, there may be records of this secret technique that promotes growth."

Orsted said again.

"This is a bit troublesome for you."

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, you have already found your destined partner. I have nothing else to do. If I continue to stay here, the curse on me will only hinder your strategy for the demon girl. It is better for me to find the secret of growth for you so that you can successfully conquer her sooner."

Broly was somewhat moved by Orsted's words. When it comes to the difference between false friends and true friends, the human god and the dragon god are the most realistic control group.

One deceived him and deliberately made him miss the target.

One who actively helps him, and even provides assists to himself after finding the person.

"By the way, if you plan to stay in Sharia for a long time, you will need to buy a house here. Broly, what kind of residence do you like?"

Orsted asked this, but he was planning to buy the boy a suitable house and property in Sharia before leaving, and also leave enough living expenses for Broly.

"If possible, I want to buy a house that is far away from the Ranoa University of Magic."

Broly replied.

"Hmm? Normally, shouldn't it be closer?"

The Dragon God was a little puzzled.

"The distance between the house and the Magic University doesn't have much impact on me. I mainly want Luo Qixi to take me home every day.

And I can try to get along with her as much as possible while she is sending me home, and increase her happiness value.”

Broly briefly explained why he wanted to buy a house farther away.

"Why didn't I realize before that you actually had such a clever idea?"

Orsted was silent for a moment, then started to complain.

"Of course. After all, you are not a target for capture, so I naturally cannot use this kind of capture intention on you."

Broly put his hands on his hips and said as a matter of course.

"I have a question."

"what?"

"How do you ensure that the demon girl will send you home?"

"Luo Qixi was worried that something might happen to me if I came back alone at night, so she personally sent me back."

Broly said, and Orsted's expression was a little weird.

"You mean you, who can defeat the second strongest person among all the nations, would get into trouble in a mere human city?"

“She doesn’t know my strength.”

"Well, a weak appearance can indeed attract the love and sympathy of others, but once or twice, the demon girl may do this, but if it happens too many times, are you sure she will still be willing to do it?"

"It doesn't matter. I'll give her a reason she can't refuse."

"What reason?"

"After you leave, I won't be safe. I will need a bodyguard, and Luo Qixi is short of money."

"You want to hire her as your bodyguard, do you think it's possible?"

"She definitely won't agree to be a personal bodyguard, but I don't think she would refuse the job of escorting me to and from school."

"Broly, do you always use this tactic to conquer others?"

Orsted couldn't help it and finally asked.

"No, I didn't use this before, but after accepting the Beishen Style, I suddenly felt that this is actually a way to attack with all my strength."

Broly used to not agree with the strategy Aqua taught him, but after learning the Northern God Style in this world, he suddenly agreed with part of it.

In terms of combat, he may be strong, but when it comes to attacking targets recognized by the Crystal Palace, he is a weakling.

The weak should have self-awareness of being weak, and use weak means to defeat the strong in this regard, even if the means used are a bit despicable.

. . . .

The next day, the demon girl who came to the Adventurer's Guild to accept a commission was stopped by the receptionist of the Adventurer's Guild.

"Ms. Lokisi, here is a request for you."

"What is the mission that was entrusted to me?"

"A long-term escort mission."

"Ms. Ada, you know my situation. I still have to study at the Magic University, and I don't have much time to be a bodyguard for others."

"Please rest assured, the employer who issued this commission happens to be a student of Lanoa Magic University."

"Wait, no way?!"

Roxy thought of Broly.

"Good morning, Lucy."

When she met her employer, her guess came true.

"Isn't this the little brother who wants to mate with my Roxy? What's his name?"

Cat girl René is worthy of being an orc, she has already forgotten Broly's name.

"My name is Broly, thank you."

"Yes, it's Broly, little brother. I actually thought of you. Don't think I forgot about you, meow!"

"Ok, I trust you."

"So, this is the escort request you issued in order to capture me?"

Luo Qixi intervened, waved the order form in her hand, and asked directly.

She kind of hated this kind of thing. Some people thought that just because they had a little money, they could make the whole world revolve around them.

"Yes, but not entirely. My friend Orsted has left, and I do not have any protection around me now.

This is a very serious escort commission. You are the only acquaintance I know in this city and the one I want to capture, so I named you.

Um, did I do something wrong?"

The words that Luo Qixi wanted to say were stuck in her throat.

Looking at the boy who was looking at her innocently, she let out a breath.

Soften your voice and say, "No, you didn't do anything wrong."

"It's just that I want to know the specific situation of the employer who issued this commission, that is, you."

Roxy began to ask about Broly's situation.

"Broly, where are your parents?"

"I have no memory of my mother, and as for my father, he is not in this world."

"Don't you have any other family?"

"In this world, there is no such thing. If I have to say, you are the family I'm looking for."

"What happened to your scary friend? Why did he leave you alone?"

"I have known him for a long time and I have been well taken care of by him. By the way, he did not abandon me, but he went to find some things for me. In addition, I have bought a house in Xicheng District and live there now. However, it may be dangerous to go to and from school, so I need a guard..."

"Brother Broly, don't worry, we have accepted your commission. I will definitely protect you and will not let others bully you!"

Reine patted her chest until it surged and said this with great confidence.

"I didn't expect you to be in this situation. Please rest assured that your personal safety from now on will be left to me, Lokisi Migludia."

Luo Qixi dared to swear that this was definitely not for the monthly salary of 1 Ranoa gold coin written on the long-term guard commission.
