Love comes after eating halberds

"Huh? No, she is my lovely maid. She lost to me because of Shoji. According to the bet, she needs to be my maid for a year.

What are you looking at? It was her suggestion. Well, the bet was that the loser would be the servant of the winner. She wanted me to be his servant, but I happened to be the winner. "

Seeing the slightly subtle looks in Mito Yumei and Shiina Mahiru in front of him, Hoshino Sora hurriedly explained, what, he is also a victim, okay?

That look in his eyes seemed as if he had designed to trick Alice Nakiri and used the shokuji to coerce a pretty little girl into becoming his maid.

"Oh~~~"

With a long tail note, thinking of all the perverted things Hoshino Sora had done to her, Shiina Mahiru obviously didn't believe that a beautiful girl like Nakiri Alice would make such a bet.

"Don't believe it, it's true."

Seeing this situation, Hoshino Sora hurriedly explained.

However, once the established impression has been formed, any number of explanations will become insignificant.

"I believe it."

"No, you sound very disbelieving."

"But I do believe it. How can you not believe that I believe you just because you sound like you don't believe it?"

"Forget it, stop arguing about weird places."

Seeing Shiina Mahiru's expression of disbelief, Hoshino Sora finally gave up. Anyway, in the opponent's inherent impression, he was a foot-control pervert who was good at cooking.

"Rou Mei, can you make some meat dishes for me to eat tonight?"

"Huh? Yes, yes. There happens to be an A5 Wagyu beef sent from home to practice with me in the refrigerator, but it's so sudden. Also, don't call me Meimei!"

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Mito Yumei thought that after the last duel, the other party said that he wanted to try her cooking if he had a chance, and he readily agreed.

"Mahiru, please help me cook something later."

Turning his head, he saw the look in Mahiru Shiina's eyes that showed a bit of expectation but didn't want to say anything. Although Sora Hoshino had eaten the dishes made by Mahiru Shiina countless times, he still asked him to make him a dinner.

You can't make the other person sad by favoring one over the other. Let Meimei and Alice do it but not Mahiru Shiina. That will make the other person feel that they are being treated differently.

"Okay, I will try my best."

Hearing Hoshino Sora's words, Mahiru Shiina's eyes lit up, and she agreed with a smile on her face.

Soon, the three of them returned to Yaoriliao and rushed to the kitchen without stopping. At this time, the kitchen was filled with a faint aroma of dumplings.

"It seems like..."

Looking at Yumeko Snake who was so tired that she fell asleep on the chair, Hoshino Sora stared at her for more than ten seconds, then turned to look at the kitchen countertop, which was piled with various ingredients.

"I remember that the theme of Mengzi's competition tomorrow is "dumplings", which originated from China..."

At the end of the sentence, Shiina Mahiru's voice became smaller and smaller, and her brows wrinkled slightly.

Chinese cuisine accounts for half of the world. From palace banquets to street snacks, the variety and quantity of dishes are staggering.

Even if you only come up with one cuisine, it is comparable to the power of other countries. There are many dishes here in Neon that were adapted from Chinese cuisine. This is China, the Oriental Dragon that has been inherited for more than 5000 years!

Facing the Chinese players, they basically have no advantage, and the topics they draw are all the opponents are best at, which is really uncomfortable.

"From dumpling wrappers to fillings, to the cooking temperatures for different fillings, and the preparation of sauces, Mengzi did a lot of research. These thick notes are surprising to see."

Picking up the draft paper on the table and flipping through it, Hoshino Sora looked a little surprised when he looked at the fine handwriting and even illustrations on it.

He originally thought that Yumeko Snake Gho was a talented player, but now it seems that the opponent should be a hard-working genius. He had never seen anyone take such dense notes.

Hearing the noise around him, he sat up while rubbing his sleepy eyes. Then he looked at Hoshino Sora and the others who appeared in front of him. Yumeko Snake Ghoul stretched his waist lazily, perfectly showing off his body curves.

"You are back. Do you want to try the dumplings I just made? It's almost time."

Hoshino Sora swallowed, and then heard Yumeko Snake's invitation to taste. The other party also stood up at this moment, came to the front of the steamer and took out the steaming dumplings.

Also brought out were three sauces she carefully prepared.

"Please let me taste it!"

----------

It was already eight o'clock in the evening when he left Yasuriyo. During this period, he tasted Yumeko Snake's magic dumplings, Mito Yumei's meat dishes, Shiina Mahiru's soup dishes, and now he is on his way to taste Nakiri Alice's molecular cuisine. .

Knocking on the door, Alice Nakiri had been waiting at the door early. She immediately opened the door when she heard a sound outside. At this time, she was wearing a graceful and luxurious evening dress, with her hair slightly tied up. She looked very dignified, beautiful and elegant. Very.

Hoshino Sora was stunned when he saw Alice Nakiri dressed up in this costume. He was so beautiful that he was a little crazy. How could this atmosphere be so like a candlelight dinner on a date?

"You haven't been to my house for a long time."

Welcoming Hoshino Sora into the house, Nakiri Alice said with a slight complaint that Ryo-kun had never been to her house since she won the competition.

"Don't you know what identity you are here for? If you go to a girl's home every now and then, if outsiders find out, you will be gossiped about."

Feeling that Alice Nakiri also had that intention, Hoshino Sora remained calm on the surface, but actively guided her on the inside. He was already quite experienced in attacking girls.

"Let others say what they want to say. Do you care about what others say? Obviously we live our own lives."

The cheeks bulged subtly, obviously dissatisfied with Hoshino Sora's answer. What does it mean to be afraid of being gossiped about by outsiders? Do you really hate others gossiping about him and her?

unhappy.

"I don't care, but I'm afraid you do."

Shaking her head, she followed Alice Nakiri to the restaurant, which was filled with exquisite molecular cuisine. When she stirred her nose, there were waves of elegant fragrance.

"How could I care? If I cared, I wouldn't bother you every day."

"I thought it was because you were my maid."

"We don't have a formal official document, and there are no witnesses. It's just a verbal bet. Even if I want to default on the bill, there's nothing you can do.

Ah, I’m not saying that I want to default on my debt, I just want to tell you that I’m not looking for you because I’m talking about your maid, but...”

Looking at Sora Hoshino who was enjoying molecular cuisine leisurely, Alice Nakiri explained anxiously. At the end of the sentence, her cheeks turned red and her voice stopped abruptly.

Her eyes were circling left and right, and her breathing became a little rapid. Even if she is straightforward, she cannot be as straightforward as usual when facing emotional problems. The thin-skinned girl's uniqueness is vividly reflected at this moment.

There is no way, she is still a young girl at this age, she is always busy studying cooking, and has no experience in love at all. She has been with Kurokiba Ryo for so long and learned nothing, and the other party has blocked all her dreams. Good luck.

Her relationship with him was more of a relationship between close friends. She didn't have the slightest love for him, so she didn't develop in that direction.

But Hoshino Sora was different. Even though they had only been in contact for a while, Alice could clearly feel her feelings. Ah, this was the person, and he had to feel like this.

Even though this guy is a perverted stocking and foot dominator, he still likes to lecture her and make her shy.But she likes this kind of thing. Once she starts, everything about the other person will shine in her eyes.

Like stockings?Then why did she speak out so boldly as long as she was interested? Aren't preference and frankness also advantages?

"I like you too, but I don't think you can accept me. After all, I'm just a foot-controlling idiot who's good at cooking, and I force you to be my maid. You must hate me, right?"

Hoshino Sora's voice was very low, with a bit of grievance, as if he was giving in to the misfortune, but in reality he was retreating in order to let the other party make a decision as soon as possible.

"What nonsense are you talking about! If I hated you, how could I let you come to my house and give you the stockings you just took off..."

Nakiri Alice's voice became softer the more she talked about it. This was still a bit too embarrassing for her. If Hoshino Sora hadn't said such unconfident words, she wouldn't have said this.

"Then, do you want to try dating?"

"Suddenly..."

"If you don't want to, forget it."

"I never said I didn't want to!"

Seeing Hoshino Sora's disappointed expression, Nakiri Alice said eagerly, why did he think she changed into such beautiful clothes today?Why do you value dinner with him so much?

"That means I agree."

"But I don't have any experience in dating, so I'd like to ask for more advice in the future. Hoshino-kun, I should call you Sora-kun now."

With the title, the corners of Alice Nakiri's mouth turned up slightly, her mood became extraordinarily beautiful, and the expression on her face became visibly happy.

"Well, please give me some advice."

As the molecular cuisine in front of me was swallowed, a faint warmth grew in my heart. I closed my eyes, and all I could think about was the method of making molecular cuisine, including but not limited to the operation of precision instruments.

This is the role of the chef's heart. Through the food tasting, you can learn about the chef's life. His efforts, his experience, his creativity, and his abilities will all be converted into experience values ​​and absorbed by him through the food.

It’s really an extremely buggy ability!

[Complete Hidden Mission]: Scumbag?No!I just love everyone equally!

[Task Requirement]: Date five girls at the same time without letting them discover each other, or let the girls you are dating accept other girls (sisters are not counted).

[Task Reward]: Subtly change the world's understanding, believing that it is normal for capable boys or girls to have a harem, and at the same time greatly increase the tolerance of the partner for the harem.

As the task prompt was completed, Alice Nakiri, who was sitting in front, suddenly felt that her brain was shut down for a second, but because nothing happened around her, she didn't care.

At the same time, everyone in the world was stunned for a second. The football goalkeeper was awarded a point by the opponent because he was stunned for a second. Some young lovers entered because they were stunned for a second. All kinds of events happened in this world. occur.

But no one cared about it, just treating it as a trivial mistake.

"Speaking of which, do you have an unclear relationship with my cousin, Erina Nakiri?"

Her expression suddenly became hesitant. After thinking for more than ten seconds, Alice Nakiri suddenly asked this question. After speaking, her heartbeat accelerated slightly.

"Erina and I should be just friends for now. What's wrong?"

Hearing Alice Nakiri's question, Hoshino Sora panicked subconsciously, but still pretended to answer as if nothing had happened.

"For now?"

Nakiri Alice keenly captured the second meaning of Hoshino Sora's words, and then stood up and asked with question on her waist.

"Ah this..."

"Although I don't object to you finding another girlfriend, can you really stand Erina's character? Let me tell you..."

Moving a chair and sitting next to Hoshino Sora, Nakiri Alice started talking nonstop. She had no way to vent the anger she had accumulated over the years.

"When I was a kid, she used to snatch my toys like a robber. She also complained that my food was unpalatable and made people angry. Isn't it because she has the tongue of God? Why are you dragging her!

These are not the most important things. The most important thing is that I have sent so many letters over the years, but Erina didn’t reply to any of them!And there’s more…”

(The letter delivery incident may not be Erina’s problem.)

Hoshino Sora complained softly in his heart, and his eyes were full of doting as he looked at Alice, who kept revealing dirty information about Erina and making gestures from time to time.

However, the other party seems to have said before that he has no objection to him finding a girlfriend again, right? ?

Although I don’t know when it started, the task rewards given for completing tasks seem to have begun to affect reality.

In other words, as long as he slowly let Kitagawa and the others meet and know each other's existence, he would no longer have to hide and worry about being caught by another girlfriend in the middle of a date with one girlfriend.

With the biggest crisis lifted, he should be able to relax a lot from now on.

Thinking of this, Hoshino Sora showed a satisfied smile on his face.

"Are you listening to me? You can still laugh after saying so many sad things."

"I was just thinking, your relationship is actually pretty good, right?"

Seeing Alice Nakiri's dissatisfied look, Hoshino Sora couldn't help but laugh and said, if his memory was correct, Alice should have never hated Erina.

Both sisters are more or less arrogant.

"Who...who has a good relationship with that guy?"

With a bit of unconfidence in her voice, Nakiri Alice said hummingly, but her eyes that dodge from time to time betrayed her heart.

"Eat quickly, there are so many dishes that can't stop your mouth."

"Good~"

Hoshino Sora said in a long voice deliberately, and then continued to enjoy the food. Molecular cuisine does not taste too full, so it is more suitable as a dessert after a meal.

If they continue to open a store in the future, let Alice be their pastry chef.

After finishing the meal, Hoshino Sora left. Because there was a competition tomorrow, he did not take advantage of the atmosphere of communication to move further towards Alice and went back early.

He wants to digest what he learned today and perfect better dishes!

Especially after seeing Yumeko Snake Ghoul working so hard, his fighting spirit was endlessly inspired.

The opponent is Yukihira Soma.

Goal: win!

----------

The next day.

"Then I'm going, Mengzi, please try your best too. I hope to meet you in the semi-finals or finals."
