Problem Girls Strategy

"Of course not. I've told you that the elves value agreements more." Kokoro patiently explained the elves' concept to the three.
For a race with an endless lifespan, emotional dullness is one of the most basic characteristics, and the way the elves deal with this situation is to make agreements.
Even if it is just to promise a companion to see a rare flower, the elf will spend decades searching for and cultivating the flower, and then bring it to the old companion to fulfill the promise between them.
Friends, companions, comrades-in-arms, lovers, these identities in human society are transformed into special agreements with different meanings in the eyes of the elves. It is difficult to establish friendship with a long-lived race, but as long as they succeed, no matter how insignificant the promise is, they will remember it in their hearts and spend dozens or hundreds of years to fulfill it.
The same is true of the relationship between Kokoro and Jiang Zao. She doesn't care what kind of woman is around him or what their identities are. She is his exclusive guide. This was the agreement made by the goddess Eris when he was eleven years old.
After the two actually met, Jiang Zao added a new meaning to it - "family". Even if time passes and the world changes, she will still abide by this promise.
"When the master's life comes to an end, I will erect a tombstone for him, follow his last will, continue traveling according to the concept of the Food Palace, or build a small house where he is buried and live there forever." There was no sadness in Kokoro's light pink eyes, she just simply and firmly spoke of things that were natural and unchanging.
The oppressive feeling brought by the separation of life and death and the long time made Huihui feel suffocated: "Such... Such heavy feelings... Are the elves such a heavy race?"
"This is probably the characteristic of long-lived races..." Kael didn't expect that the seemingly well-behaved Kokoro could say such words as if nothing had happened.
Pekolim, who is always cheerful and good at smoothing things over, could only laugh dryly at this moment. She also felt that this heavy emotion was not something that ordinary people could bear.
Kokoro seemed to have turned on a switch, with a strange light flashing in her eyes: "Although as a special guide, I can't witness the moment when the master is born, accompany him at that time, watch him grow up little by little, and then teach him the knowledge I have learned, but fortunately it is not too late now. The master is only sixteen years old, still a minor in human age, and I can still accompany him for a long time."
"It's a pity that the master is perfect in cooking and other aspects. I can only take care of him in a few ways. I can only fulfill my duties when he is lazy. Sometimes I wonder if the master is not so good and not good at taking care of himself, then I can devote myself to the work of taking care of others."
"In the morning, I prepare breakfast, wake up my master, brush his teeth and wash his face, feed him, go for a walk with him, breathe fresh air, exercise according to the designated exercise plan, eat lunch together, take a nap together, wake up in the soft afternoon sunshine, and go to the central park of Landsoll to see the fountain."
"After dinner, I bathe him, blow dry his hair, and put him in pajamas. Then I read a book for about an hour on the bed to supplement my knowledge. Then I make him a cup of milk before bed, coax him to sleep, and greet tomorrow morning together."
Jiang Zao's gentle sky blue eyes gradually fell asleep as he hummed the lullaby. His eyelashes stretched lazily like a tired cat and slowly closed his eyelids. He used a handkerchief to wipe off the milk stains on his lips, then pulled the quilt up to cover his shoulders to prevent him from catching a cold.
Kokoro expressed her deepest thoughts and immersed herself in her beautiful fantasy.
Kailu took Pekorim and Huihui a few steps to the side and asked them in a low voice: "Kokoro... is she really an elf? Why do I feel that her actions can make Jiang Zao completely useless?"
"Judging from the hair color and ear features, it is 100% an elf."
"Maybe Kokoro's ideas are different from those of the average elves."
"I understand the logic, but why is her attitude and feelings towards Jiang Zao so..." Kaede didn't say the rest, but Huihui and Pekolim could understand the general meaning.
From the perspective of these three people, this feeling is as heavy as a mountain ten thousand meters high. They feel oppressed and breathless just by listening to it. They really don't know how Jiang Zao will face this feeling when the time comes.
But before that, the girl who became his lover was even more pitiful. Facing such an elf who didn't care about his identity but wanted to stay by his side all the time, she was completely defeated from an emotional perspective.
Speak of the devil, and he will appear. Jiang Zao walked towards the girls with two exquisite gift boxes with a diameter of one meter and a height of half a meter in his hands: "Everyone~ This is the special ingredient dropped by the Dorom Colossus!"
"Master, let me get you another box."
"Thank you, Kokoro."
"This is what I should do."
Jiang Zao touched Ke Ke Luo lovingly, and then he noticed that the other three girls had complicated expressions and looked at him with strange eyes, somewhat puzzled: "What's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that?"
He obviously didn't know how much affection Kokoro had for him.
Will Jiang Zao have trouble finding a lover in the future?
This guy is so pitiful. I just hope he won’t be crushed by Kokoro’s feelings.
The three girls had different thoughts, and then pretended that nothing had happened and never mentioned the topic of lovers that they had talked about before.
Jiang Zao put the huge gift box on the ground. The test of [Elemental Armament] was very successful. With a void weapon in one hand and an elemental sword in the other, he activated the dual sword mode and spent more than ten minutes successfully defeating the elite-level Dorom Colossus alone. This was something he had never dared to think about before.
If an ordinary adventure guild were to defeat the Dorom Colossus, it would take at least half a day to a day to slowly attack its weak points in the legs and break its legs. Only then could they attack the defenseless crystal body of the golem with the smell of milk that causes a stun effect.
You have to know that there are gaps between elite levels. If facing an elite-level deep-forest wild boar, Jiang Zao is confident that he can break through its defense in an instant and get the delicious pork from it.
Chapter 260: The Little Master of Slapping Faces
"Let me see what kind of cookies are in here." Jiang Zao squatted down. The special loot box dropped by the Dorom Colossus was beautifully packaged. A dark purple silky ribbon was tied to a light blue cardboard shell with various desserts painted on it. When the ribbon tied into a bow was pulled open, it immediately turned into a spot of light and dissipated.
When the lid of the box was opened, a palm-sized cookie with red and blue fillings in the center appeared in front of everyone.
“Is this the special ingredient?”
“What kind of effect does it have.”
"It smells so good, I really want to eat it now."
Kokoro, who was familiar with the Monster Encyclopedia, explained the puzzles to everyone one by one: "There are several types of special cookies dropped by the Dorom Colossus. The ones dropped after the master was defeated this time are the most common ones that heal wounds and restore mana. There should be a kind of compound cookie with a purple filling at the bottom."
Hearing that it could restore magic power, Huihui immediately became excited and raised her right hand: "Teacher Kokoro! Is this cookie very effective in restoring magic power?"
"That's not clear. The illustration doesn't clearly explain it. It shouldn't be able to directly restore it like the high-level magic potion. Otherwise, the Dorom Colossus should have become the most popular monster among magicians."
Huihui was not discouraged by the fact that the recovery effect was not as strong as she expected. Being able to restore magic power meant that she could use this cookie to cast explosion magic twice a day.
What a wonderful thing this is!
If she could have such a good time with just one shot a day, she couldn't even imagine how great it would be if she could have two.
Jiang Zao closed the lid, put the spoils into the storage space, clapped his hands and stood up: "Let's go back and eat more cookies. There is a lot of food in one box. There is no need to save it as a recovery item."
"Anyway, it's you who defeated the monster, so you have the final say." Kael swung her tail a little unhappily. This kind of subjugation commission, which was no different from going out for an outing, made her feel like she was just here to watch a show.
Back home, Jiang Zao, Hui Hui, Pekolim, and Kokoro sat around the cookie box.
"Are you ready?" Jiang Zao put his hands on the lid of the box and looked around at his companions.
"Ready!" X3
"Very good, then let's start tasting the Dolom cookies!"
Seeing them making noises like children, Kailu shook her head helplessly: "How childish! I'm going to go out for a while. Remember to leave some cookies for me. Don't eat them all."
Huihui took a bite of the crispy cookie with a strong milky aroma. She looked at the direction where Kailu left in confusion: "Did she go out because of something important?"
"That shouldn't be the case. Judging from her expression, she doesn't look like she's in a hurry."
"I remember she had a bunch of kittens in town and she would go check on them every day."
"Kokoro, how did you know?"
"During the time when the master and Pekolim were recuperating, I saw her going out to do some errands at the same time every day. I was curious so I asked her."
"Cat...how about we follow and see?"
Jiang Zao knocked Hui Hui on the head with his hand knife: "Stop it, she didn't invite us, so we shouldn't bother her. What if the cats run away because they sense the presence of a stranger?"
"I get it. Is it really necessary to hit my head? Really..." She covered her head with her left hand and vented all her resentment on the biscuits in her hand.
After her tests, she found that the blue biscuits restore mana, while the red ones restore physical strength and heal minor injuries. The effects of both biscuits are long-lasting, lasting about half an hour. If Huihui wants to fully restore her magic power, she will have to eat at least twenty biscuits and wait ten hours.
Such a result obviously could not fulfill her wish of casting Explosion Magic twice a day. It could only be used as a small prop to help her quickly recover her mobility after casting Explosion Magic.
"Here, a Coke for you."
"Thank you, but why don't you go get it from the capsule house?"
"There's only so much in stock, so of course I just took them out of the refrigerator and put them in the storage space. Why did I have to go through the trouble of opening the capsule house to get them?"
“Oh, right.” Huihui suddenly realized, then pulled the ring nonchalantly and drank the whole can of Coke: “Yeah~ That’s the feeling!”
"No matter how many times I see it, your ability to drink a Coke in one breath without burping is truly amazing."
Jiang Zao was sighing when he saw her proudly puffing out her chest towards him: "This is my unique skill. People like you will never be able to learn how to hiccup~"
The slap in the face came too quickly. Jiang Zao only felt a gust of air with the aroma of biscuits and milk sprayed on his face. Huihui opened her mouth wide and kept a hiccuping expression. Her pupils trembled violently. After realizing that she had made a fool of herself, she glanced at the rest of her companions with a sinister look in anger.
Seeing that they were all holding palm-sized biscuits and eating, her hot cheeks finally cooled down a lot. She stood up and went upstairs with the empty Coke can. As the sound of the door closing on the second floor was heard, the three people downstairs started laughing and a cheerful atmosphere filled the living room.
Jiang Zao picked up the water cup and imitated Hui Hui's proud tone: "People like you will never be able to learn to burp~~"
"Hahahahahahaha, Jiang Zao, hurry...hurry and stop, my...my stomach hurts from laughing..." Pekolin rolled on the sofa, holding her stomach, tears streaming down her face.
"This is my unique skill, and I will never stop." Jiang Zao pinched his throat and imitated it again.
Kokoro, who had been trying hard to hold back her laughter, let out a "puff puff" sound like a balloon leaking air, and her shoulders couldn't stop shaking. From the corner of her eye, she saw Huihui, who had lifeless eyes and was standing behind Jiang Zao like a ghost demanding her life.
She raised her hand to remind him, but she burst out laughing when she saw the other person's face. Jiang Zao mistakenly thought that she was praising his acting skills, so he continued to imitate Huihui's appearance in a coquettish manner.
"Hey~ So this is how I looked in your eyes just now..."
The murderous aura like a needle pricked his chest all the way to the back of Jiang Zao's head. He realized that the sound of the door closing was just Huihui's trap. He didn't need to look back to know that she was standing behind him. This murderous intent that could pierce anyone was also emanating from her.
Being caught by the real culprit, Jiang Zao ran away without any hesitation.
"Stop right there, you bastard!"
"I'm not that stupid. If you tell me to stop, I'll stop. I don't care about my reputation!"
"Don't run away if you can!"
"If you have the guts, don't chase me!"
"Very good! Very good!! Jiang Zao, I must kill you today!!!!" The angry roar that broke through the roof startled a flock of birds in the nearby woods. Huihui's eyes emitted a scarlet light, and the magic wand in her hand was used as a holy sword of physics, which she waved with great vigor to chase and kill Jiang Zao.
Chapter 261: The cola formula from another world?
"Jiang Zao, the owner of the wild food shop asked me to participate in a food competition some time ago. Why don't our entire guild participate?" Pekolin pressed Jiang Zao's shoulders from behind the sofa. The surprisingly soft touch traveled along the back of his scalp to his brain.
In order to prevent himself from getting bloated, Jiang Zao leaned forward slightly, leaving the place that so many men yearn for: "I don't care. Even if two of us go, it will be easy to get the first place."
"Oh, you are very confident."
"Well, my cooking skills have improved recently." Jiang Zao glanced at his cooking skills that had successfully been promoted to Lv8.
Pekolim's hands trembled violently, and her surprised little face with a faint fragrance squeezed into his field of vision: "Really!? Then we must participate in this competition."
"Is the champion's prize some rare ingredient?"
"No, the prize this time is said to be the recipe for a strange drink, and the taste is very similar to the cola you gave me before."
"What!? Coke!?" This time it was Jiang Zao's turn to be shocked. He confirmed with Pekolim again: "Does it really taste similar to Coke?"
"Yes, because the organizer provided samples of this drink for people to taste. I tried it when I passed by. It was also very choking and had a sour taste."
Carbonated drinks are naturally sour without a lot of syrup. It seems that the formula of this drink has not been improved to the optimal level, otherwise it would not be used as a prize in the competition.
I must get the other world version of Coke!
"I will join you. You can ask other people. It would be better if everyone can participate if possible."
"Well, of course everyone should participate happily in this kind of activity!" Pekolim skipped out of the living room to look for other people.
Not long after, Hui Hui came down from the second floor, fully dressed: "Jiang Zao, let's go."
"Okay, did Pekolim tell you about the food contest?"
"I told you, I didn't expect that someone on the mainland could come up with a drink formula similar to Coke. Jiang Zao, can you and Pekolim get first place?"
"Don't worry, my obsession with Coke is no less than yours."
"Although I really want to compete with you for the title of the number one cola lover, in my heart, Explosion Magic is number one, so I can only reluctantly give this honor to you."
"How dare you say that? Who asked me to hand over all the remaining Coke, saying I should keep it for myself, but I ended up drinking it all that night?"
“That… that was just an accident.” Hui Hui turned her head away guiltily, drawing circles on the ground with her toes: “I was planning to drink one can, but I still felt unsatisfied after drinking it… When I came to my senses, the Coke had been finished.”
"If you hadn't happened to come across this recipe this time, I wonder what you would do if you wanted to drink Coke in the future."
"It doesn't matter! I will use my love for explosion magic to clear away these unnecessary distractions!"
Jiang Zao shook her head helplessly. Her love for explosion magic was indeed far beyond that of ordinary people, but it was hard to say whether she could use this love to suppress her body's need for caffeine.
Coming to the abandoned castle again, the surrounding woods had long been cleared by the heavy bombing in recent times, leaving only the castle itself standing there like a lone commander. This scene made Jiang Zao wonder if there was any so-called hidden BOSS in there.
Which boss is so patient? He is bombarded with ridicules and insults every day, but he can swallow his anger and pretend to be ignorant.
Could it be!
Jiang Zao's face changed drastically and he thought of a possibility.
Could it be that this hidden BOSS is the legendary weird creature with full endurance and maximum self-consolation ability - the green-haired crystal turtle! ?
Just when his mind was full of random thoughts, Huihui released today's daily explosion and fell backwards happily, not worrying at all about hitting the solid ground.
This was indeed the case. Jiang Zao's big hands grabbed her collar from behind, and then he skillfully carried her on his back. The series of movements were completed in one go without any pause.
“Hmph~Hmph~Hmph~”
Huihui hummed softly in his ear with her ethereal voice, adding a touch of color to the boring time on the road. Thinking of her current happy and fulfilling life, and the days when she would be able to drink happy water every day soon, her legs swung faster.
