People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Riven shook her head and said, "No, this is another world. The flow of time is different from our world. If I remember correctly, one day here is about a month where we are..."

"Huh?! Then...then I've been missing for a long time?! But I still have so many questions, I haven't even tasted those delicious foods yet...like that sweet meat dish! I..."

Lucifer, with his legs crossed and arms folded, casually said, "You can connect to the world, and time can be synchronized now. If you're connected, you can stay here for a night without any problem."

Lux was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Connecting worlds? What do you mean?"

After Riven explained, even Sylas opened his eyes. Sylas raised an eyebrow and said, "Connecting worlds means that Boss Baiyu and people recognized by Boss Baiyu or people from our world can go to our world?"

Riven nodded, and Sylas asked疑惑地问道, "And then? What other effects do they have?"

"Gone."

Lux paused for a moment before tentatively asking, "So, only Mr. Bai Yu and those approved by Mr. Bai Yu can go. Without Mr. Bai Yu's or the consent of people from our world, one cannot go to our world, right?"

Lucifer nodded, Silas remained silent—it wouldn't be wise for him to speak at this moment—Lux thought for a moment before suddenly raising her head and declaring, "I want to connect to the world!"

Lucifer nodded and said, "Well, let's connect then. But you don't seem to have any doubts."

Hearing this, the Gensokyo squad, who were eating snacks and watching the show at the table, felt a little embarrassed. Now, when they thought about what happened that day, they felt like idiots.

Lux said very seriously, "Because I believe in Teacher Lucifer and everyone else! Even Riven...Rivetie, a former Noxian warrior, can become like this. I believe that this place will not bring death and war! Only friendship and warmth."

Yuko Ichihara smiled and said, "And love..."

Lux blushed, while Riven said somewhat awkwardly, "That's true... but when talking about past experiences, could you please call me Riven?"

Lux tilted her head and said, "I also think 'Rui Mengmeng' sounds better."

"I...I think I'll just have some snacks...By the way, do you want some? Bai Yu grilled them, they're really delicious!"

Lux's eyes lit up as she noticed the colorful little round cakes. They looked very appetizing, especially since they were delicacies from another world—desserts made by Bai Yu.

Lux nodded repeatedly, Riven simply waved, and Lucifer stood up and went to the kitchen. Then, a clock face appeared on the shop door and vanished instantly. Eirin Yagokoro covered her forehead and said, "No matter how many times I look at it, it always feels so rushed..."

"Hmm..." xn

"Wow! This is so delicious! It's even better than the desserts served to royalty at the banquet! Hmm? What just happened?"

Lucifer came out with a glass of milk and casually said, "It's connected to the world now, and the time has been synchronized too. You can stay here for the night."

"Huh?! What happened?! It's...it's finished?!"

After Lucifer explained, Lux was dumbfounded, and Sylas's eye twitched as he remarked, "Hey... isn't this a bit hasty?"

Everyone nodded, and Lucifer casually said, "You'll get used to it..."

Lux suddenly remembered something, picked up two macarons, walked over to Sylas, placed them on the table, and said, "These are delicious! Weren't you starving?"

Sylas paused for a moment, picked up the macaron, looked at it in his hand, smiled, and said, "So Demacia isn't all trash."

Chapter 894 Curious Lux, Sylas's Plan (Please Subscribe~)

Riven and the others quickly became familiar with each other, mainly because Lux was also an energetic and innocent girl, a typical girl who loved life and was simple-minded and curious.

"Professor Lucifer! You're the landlady... which means you're Mr. Bai Yu's wife?"

Lucifer nodded without denying it and said, "But now she should be my fiancée."

"Oh...but Yuuko-san, you..."

Yuuko Ichihara waved her hand and said, "I don't like being called Miss Yuuko. You can call me Sister Yuuko or Sister Yuuko, just don't call me Miss Yuuko."

"Oh... Yuuko-neechan, you seem to be... the proprietress too?"

Yuko Ichihara nodded and said, "That's right, it's not just the two of us, there are quite a few people, including Yukari. There's no limit to the number in this world, and they all genuinely like it."

This sentence effectively shut down Lux's next sentence. However, Lux seemed to have thought of something and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. Lucifer raised an eyebrow, feeling as if he had taken in a wicked disciple...

Lux then demonstrated her ability to leave her tutor speechless with her questions, which were like a million "whys," leaving even Marisa somewhat stunned.

Why is this called a macaron?

"Huh? How is this light-up lamp made?"

What's the difference between elements and properties?

Is the world where monsters live fun?

(Number of questions omitted here)

Lucifer and the others were completely convinced. Yukari Yakumo remarked with some emotion, "Suddenly, I realize that being Lux's tutor must be a very arduous task..."

"Hmm..." xn

"Hmm? Right! Professor Lucifer! Where's your tail?"

Lucifer shuddered at the question, and Yuuko Ichihara and the others realized that Lucifer had only told Pandemonica and the others to put their tails away, but he hadn't explained why.

Yuko Ichihara nodded and said, "Yeah, I just realized that too. Lucy, why did you put it away?"

Lucifer blushed, swallowed hard, and said, "Um... I'm afraid passersby will suspect me, and sometimes my tail reacts when I'm very emotional..."

Yuko Ichihara raised an eyebrow and said, "That's true, but your explanation doesn't quite feel right to me... What's the reason?"

"That's really how it is!"

Lucifer would never admit that she was too scared to let her tail out. Just thinking about the consequences made her tremble. Her previous maid outfit was the best lesson she could learn. It wasn't her fault that she was a coward.

"Hmm? What's that smell? It smells so good!"

Yuko Ichihara said irritably, "There's only one table of guests here, so guess what smells so good?"

Lux scratched her head and smiled. For Lux, no matter how big the setback, she could face it with optimism, let alone these people who gave her the feeling of being like the older sister next door.

Lux suddenly remembered something and said with a smile, "Master Lucifer! Sister Yuko! And those ladies over there! You are welcome to visit Demacia anytime!"

Eirin Yagokoro thought for a moment and said, "I'm quite interested; it seems like there's something interesting about it..."

Marisa laughed and said, "Me too! Reimu!"

"I clean the shrine during the day."

When have you ever really been that diligent?

"Unless you come looking for me."

Marisa started arguing with Reimu again, but Reimu seemed a little too lazy to pay attention to Marisa. Everyone was used to it. Lacus really liked this atmosphere; she had never experienced a feeling of peace and tranquility amidst the warm and lively atmosphere.

Lux looked at Lucifer and said, "Professor Lucifer! If possible, I hope you can visit Demacia sometime! And Yuuko-neechan and..."

Riven waved her hand and said, "I'm not going back... Putting aside the fact that people in Demacia know me, just for myself, I could never go back to that world that makes me feel guilty."

Lux sighed, somewhat disappointed, and said, "Okay... I understand..."

Riven thought for a moment and said, "But I can go to other worlds with you, and you can also stay here for a day or a night, since the time is synchronized."

Lux nodded and said, "Okay... I understand... but why can't you use magic, Lucifer-sensei?"

Lucifer got a headache just hearing Lux say what it was, but she thought for a moment and said, "Because if I use magic in this world, my remaining employees in Hell will sense it and all come running up to me."

"Oh...."

On the other side, Sylas was quietly resting with his eyes closed, but he wasn't completely idle. Sylas had only one thought in his mind: he now had a more secure way to escape.

He was supposed to wait until the battle situation stabilized before he was to be executed, so he could come over the night before and unlock those damned chains.

Sylas was sentenced to life imprisonment, but he knew very well that Lux's constant visits to him and the books she gave him would eventually be discovered, and he would inevitably be executed one day. After calming down, he also gradually realized that the chains were not suppressing but absorbing.

He was originally waiting for Lux's visit to be exposed so he could get out of prison. Once he got out, he would have a chance to escape. But now there's a safer way.

Taking advantage of the world's connectivity, he could appear next to guests from his own world who had visited before, or in secluded places. He felt that appearing outside while wearing chains and without a coat was definitely not a wise move; he could go to a deserted place.

When it's time for revenge, he can always walk through the shop door to Lux's side, appearing from an unexpected place and making those nobles pay the price!

Thinking of this, Sylas couldn't help but smile slightly. The reason he wasn't escaping now was simple: if he ran away now, no one knew if the investigation would lead to Lux.

After all, Lux had been visiting him for a long time, and he wanted to learn more from Lux. Once the matter was exposed, Lux would definitely be under house arrest before he was executed. If he escaped then, no one would suspect Lux.

He was grateful for the tea and Lux, which allowed him to remain rational and mentally sound, preventing him from going insane. Just then, he saw Bai Yu pushing a food cart out.

"Boss Baiyu! You've finally arrived. I'm starving!"

Chapter 895 Lux, who loves cola, and Yuuko want to go on a date (Please subscribe~)

Upon seeing Bai Yu arrive, Lux's eyes lit up, and she ran back to her seat, looking at Bai Yu with anticipation. She was so excited to see what delicious food she would get to eat—food from another world.

Bai Yu first brought Silas a cup of lavender tea that he had been longing for. After taking it, Silas sighed and said, "A familiar scent, an unforgettable fragrance..."

Sylas took a sip and seemed much calmer, while Lux looked on with curiosity. The ever-curious Lux never forgot her curiosity.

Bai Yu smiled and placed a glass in front of Lux. Lux was taken aback, and Bai Yu smiled and said, "A young girl's curiosity is quite interesting."

Lux blushed, picked up the cup and looked at the tea inside. It was very clear, with no lavender or anything like that. Lux looked at Bai Yu in confusion, and Bai Yu said gently, "You don't drink tea by taking the tea leaves out of the teapot and eating them in the cup, do you?"

Lux nodded in realization. After taking a sniff, a fragrant aroma wafted over her nose, and Lux's eyes lit up. She blew on it twice before taking a sip. It was fragrant, sweet, and had an unforgettable aftertaste. Lux instantly fell in love with the drink, and a sense of peace welled up from her heart.

"Hey! This is even more delicious than the herbal tea that ladies drink for afternoon tea!"

Sylas laughed and said, "I said that back then. Even the King of Demacia probably hasn't tasted anything this delicious!"

"That's right... I'm getting more and more excited about what kind of delicious food it will be!"

Bai Yu said gently, "You won't regret your expectations, so first, Silas, your braised pork with chestnuts..."

"Wow! These pieces of meat look like jewels! Mmm! This aroma is truly enchanting! Keep going! What's the soup?"

Tomato and beef brisket soup.

Where's the last curry rice?

Bai Yu smiled, put down a dish, and said softly, "Seafood curry rice, and this is your sparkling water. The shellfish in it are not edible."

Sylas's eyes lit up. He swallowed hard as he looked at the sumptuous meal in front of him. Lux was also starving. She hadn't eaten dinner when she came to see Sylas, and had only eaten two or three macarons. She had just fully awakened her magic, so it would be strange if she wasn't hungry.

Bai Yu watched as Lux stared intently at Sylas's dish, her eyes glued to it, which Bai Yu found quite amusing. He coughed lightly, and Lux, her face slightly flushed, snapped out of her reverie and asked expectantly, "Mr. Bai Yu! What is my dish?"

"First of all, this is a dish that one of my friends likes to eat. It's the sweet meat dish you ordered, Guo Bao Rou (sweet and sour pork)."

Lux was excited as she looked at the golden, glistening, and fragrant sweet and sour pork. She had a feeling it would taste delicious, partly because of the aroma and partly because of its golden color, which she loved.

Lucifer was taken aback, glanced at Yuuko Ichihara, and said softly, "If Kuro Reid knew that Shiraha considered him a friend, he'd be very happy..."

A hint of wistfulness flashed in Yuko Ichihara's eyes. She breathed a sigh of relief before saying softly, "Of course he's happy. He must be very proud that his cunning, nerdy guy can become my lover's friend."

Lucifer glanced at Yuko Ichihara before softly saying, "Yuko..."

"Huh? You don't think I had any friendship with that bespectacled guy, do you? Even after he died, he didn't forget to make up some embarrassing stories about me and write them down in his notebook, which is still in Bai Yu's hands! Because of that, this friendship is over in the end."

Lucifer paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yuko, what I'm saying is that you have macaron crumbs on the corner of your mouth."

“I…Lucy!”

Lucifer didn't say anything. Yuuko Ichihara understood what she was thinking, but unfortunately, she was a tsundere. Yuuko was still grateful to Clow Reed, but she only knew it in her heart and remembered him. After all, she had her own life, and Clow Reed had his own liberation and choices.

"What is this?"

"I combined spicy stir-fried vegetables with spicy stir-fried tofu skin. You should like the tofu skin. There are also some dried bean curd sticks and lotus root slices in it."

Lux was taken aback and asked in confusion, "Tofu? Dried bean curd sticks? Lotus root slices?"

"You can think of this as the cube and the long, thin thing in front of you being made of beans, while the round one with a few holes is a kind of vegetable that grows in a pond."

"These are beans?! My God! Beans can actually be made like this?! Unbelievable... I've only ever seen cooked beans, this... I feel like it should taste delicious! And it's still soft, I really can't believe these are beans, Silas, can you believe it?"

"I believe it, because this is another world, but that thing does look delicious."

Lux nodded repeatedly. Bai Yu then placed a large glass of black, bubbly drink in front of Lux. Lux was startled and quickly asked, "What...what is this? Why is it black? And why is it bubbling?"

Bai Yu said with a smile, "This stuff... it's something you'll like after just one taste. Of course, some people don't like it, but you shouldn't be one of them."

Lux swallowed hard and said, "Okay... I'll try... there's still ice here..."

Lux picked up the cup and smelled it, only to detect a strange odor. Lux wrinkled her nose. Was this really drinkable? But her curiosity told her she had to drink it.

After hesitating for a while, Lux took a small sip, then froze, licked her lips, smacked her lips, and then her eyes lit up as she took a big gulp, and then...

"Cough cough cough! Oh! I like this drink! What is this black drink?"

"Cola, I knew you'd like it. Silas, your sparkling water tastes pretty much the same. Just call me anytime if you need a refill or extra rice."
