People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"Mmm~ This food is delicious..."

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Did it achieve the energy replenishment effect you mentioned?"

"Mmm! Nothing could be better than this!"

Bai Yu walked to the table and said with a smile, "Of course there is, but you need to stop and savor it slowly, just like tonight."

"I will not stop my conquest..."

"Then try slowing down occasionally."

The girl smiled slightly as she watched Bai Yu clearing away the dishes. This smile made Lucifer raise an eyebrow. Wait, something seems off. What is this girl trying to do?

Bai Yu was also stunned. The girl had actually reached out and hooked her arm around his neck, and what was with that unnatural red on her face? While it was cute how she had suddenly transformed from a mature, queenly woman into this blushing, girlish figure, something just felt off...

"Miss, you..."

"Esdeath~ Imperial General Esdeath~"

Bai Yu looked at Esdeath with a puzzled expression and asked, "Um... Miss Esdeath, what do you want to do?"

Esdeath laughed and said, "You beat me, so I'll give you a reward~"

"What kind of reward requires such a treatment?"

"of course...."

The next second, Lucifer exploded, his pupils dilating in shock as he stared at the scene before him. Lucifer felt completely overwhelmed. He rushed over and pulled Bai Yu away, hugging her tightly like a precious treasure, saying, "What are you doing!"

Esdeath touched her lips and smiled, saying, "The prize is none other than Imperial General Esdeath herself!"

Lucifer shouted angrily, "You...you...you really are..."

Esdeath gave Lucifer a playful smile and said, "You said it was acceptable, right? So, this makes perfect sense."

Lucifer stared at Esdeath with wide eyes and a slightly open mouth. She wanted to teach her the lesson she had given herself just a few minutes ago. Why had she said so much? Why had she said so much?! Wouldn't it have been better to let her continue living in a world where the strong prey on the weak? But since she had already said it, there was nothing she could do.

"Humph!"

Esdeath chuckled at the sight and said, "So... Shiraha... I'm the spoils of war! Let's start a romance! This queen doesn't seem to have any objections~"

"Humph!"

Bai Yu's lips twitched as he looked at Esdeath and said, "Just because I beat you?"

Esdeath shook her head and said, "That's part of the reason, but not the whole reason. As for the reason, you don't need to know~" (I don't want to use this to pad the word count...)

Now that things have come to this point, what else can Bai Yu say? As a normal man, it would be abnormal to refuse a beautiful woman like Esdeath who is pursuing him.

And so, ten minutes later, this scene unfolded...

"I'm teaching you how to use a phone! Let go of Bai Yu first! Bai Yu! Try to resist!"

"Practice typing! Let go of Bai Yu's arm!"

Bai Yu's lips twitched as she looked at Esdeath, who was clinging to her arm and laughing for no apparent reason, and Lucifer, who was teaching Esdeath how to use a mobile phone. She felt a headache coming on.

Half an hour later, Lucifer, still embracing Shiraha's arm, said angrily, "Esdeath! Familiarize yourself with the phone! You'll need it to contact people when you get back!"

Upon hearing this, Esdeath became serious. She didn't want to go back and not be able to find Bai Yu, so she started fiddling with the phone Bai Yu had given her.

Lucifer seized the opportunity to hug Bai Yu tightly. Bai Yu patted Lucifer's head and said with a smile, "Jealous Lucifer is cute too~"

Lucifer muttered irritably, "What a jerk! You didn't even put up a fight! That's outrageous!"

Bai Yu laughed and said, "I guess it would be abnormal for a man to refuse, right?"

"You really are a big jerk... I suddenly feel like I'll have to keep an eye on you from the start when you open your shop! Otherwise, I won't know what you've been up to!"

"Great! Perfect, someone can chat with me now!"

While Lucifer was indulging in his jealousy, Esdeath was diligently learning how to use it. The more she used it, the more she realized how amazing this little box called a cell phone was.

Esdeath did not stay for long, because she still had to lead troops on a campaign. She had to be ready to fight at any time, and she did not know if the enemy would launch an attack. She had to go back, and now she had a reason not to lose.

She absolutely could not let Bai Yu look down on her; she had to keep winning so that she could prove just how powerful Bai Yu was, the one who had conquered her.

Thinking about this, Esdeath suddenly had a bold idea, an idea she had never had before. Esdeath was not someone who only thought but did; once she made a decision, it could not be changed.

Standing in front of the shop, Bai Yu looked at Esdeath carrying a military knife and said with a smile, "War is merciless, be careful. If you want to come over, just use the method you used before."

As Bai Yu spoke, he adjusted Esdeath's hat. Esdeath looked at Bai Yu with a slight smile. She finally understood why so many girls wanted to be in love; it really was a great experience.

Lucifer also took Esdeath's phone and added her to the group chat before sulking in Bai Yusheng's arms. This rival was entirely of her own making!

"I think I might be a little late. I wanted to prepare a gift for you~"

Bai Yu was taken aback and asked in confusion, "A gift?"

"I can't say yet... Well then, Bai Yu, I'm leaving!"

"Ok!"

A few minutes later, Esdeath licked her lips and walked into the soft light with a slightly flushed face. Lucifer was completely enraged and pounced on Bai Yu to vent his dissatisfaction.

On the other side, Esdeath stood on the cliff, touched her lips, and smiled, saying, "Keep conquering... Najenda, we'll meet again... Keep helping me... Help me give this world to my love as a gift!" (Bai Yu: I don't want that... and you're thinking too much...)

A cool breeze swept across the cliff; the Imperial General Esdeath was no longer there, only a shadow advancing towards the moon could be seen...

Chapter 125 The Girl in the Red Ninja Outfit (Please Subscribe~)

The night remained the same, and because of Esdeath's previous battle, the already cool shop became even cooler, though not everyone felt so cool.

For example, Lucifer was like this at the moment, tidying his clothes while leaning against the table drinking water. Bai Yu sighed and said, "Lucifer, I didn't expect you to be so amusing when you're jealous~"

Lucifer snorted and continued sitting next to Bai Yu. Her jealousy had completely disappeared, and she was in an exceptionally good mood. She leaned against Bai Yu, playing on her phone, or rather, watching Esdeath's reaction after joining the group.

Just as Lucifer had expected, the group chat exploded again. This was always the most active time for everyone, and Esdeath only said one sentence: "I am the Imperial General, Esdeath."

Then everyone went wild. A female general! This is an extremely rare attribute. In an instant, everyone started asking Lucifer what was going on. Lucifer cleverly skipped the topic because she posted a picture of Esdeath.

Lucifer shook his head helplessly at the group of night owls who were still awake so late, while Bai Yu continued reading his novel without any awareness of being the protagonist.

"Do you think any more customers will come? It's already so late~"

"The interesting thing about restaurants is that you can never predict whether a customer will walk in next, but at this hour, it doesn't seem like there will be many customers..."

Lucifer snorted and said, "It's better if they don't come~ It saves us from having some strange guests. Bai Yu, you better tell me honestly if we had any guests like Esdeath a few days ago!"

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Probably not. Esdeath's behavior is due to some of her strange ideas combined with her deeply ingrained belief in the law of the jungle."

Lucifer nodded. That made sense. After all, there couldn't possibly be that many women like Esdeath. Thinking of this, Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief. Bai Yu looked at her and said with a smile, "How does it feel to have a restaurant empty at night?"

Lucifer thought for a moment, looking out the window at the pitch blackness with a faint glimpse of the streetlights on the other side, and then at the quiet shop with no customers.

"Quiet.."

Bai Yu smiled and nodded. What night restaurants seek is that anticipation for unknown guests in the quiet, an anticipation for breaking the silence. Every night restaurant prepares a place for passersby and a canvas for stories.

"Lucifer, what do you do when you're bored in Hell?"

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "What do I do... I rarely have free time, I'm always dealing with government affairs. When I do have free time, I'm either drinking and reading, or wandering around."

Bai Yu asked doubtfully, "But you said you're so busy, isn't it okay for you to be away in Hell for so long? After all, you're the Queen of Hell!"

Lucifer's eye twitched slightly as he said, "Do you remember me telling you about that workaholic who was always exhausted?"

"Oh...you mean Pandemonica, right? Isn't she the receptionist at your Hell's? And the one who never got a perfect score..."

At this point, Lucifer was a little embarrassed. Pandemonica had some social anxiety, but she also happened to be a customer service representative. Who could handle that? Nobody could.

Lucifer cleared his throat and said, "As for Pandemonica, she's the receptionist. Just take them all to her, and she can just refuse them!" (Pandemonica: I've got it...)

After Lucifer finished speaking, she had a look on her face that said, "Look how smart I am! Come on, praise me!" Bai Yu looked at the smug Lucifer and silently hugged her.

Lucifer was taken aback, then blushed and said, "What...what are you trying to do all of a sudden? I already told you I'm not jealous!"

Bai Yu patted Lucifer's head gently and said, "Lucifer, even if you're a fool, I will never give up on you."

"Bai Yu... wait... something doesn't sound right! You jerk! You actually called me stupid!"

Bai Yu sighed and shook his head, but his eyes were full of pity. Although Lucifer was a proud and arrogant person, she was not stupid. She quickly realized that Bai Yu's eyes were full of concern for people with intellectual disabilities!

"That's enough! What did I say wrong!"

"No~"

"Then what does that look mean?!"

"I guess it's just a feeling that this expression might make things clearer~"

"Don't try to fool me!"

Lucifer was completely helpless against Bai Yu. Putting aside their current relationship, even if they had no relationship at all, Lucifer still couldn't do anything to Bai Yu. Moreover, there was the crucial factor that the contract still existed between them.

"By the way, Bai Yu, I've been thinking about something. What if those guests from other worlds come and cause trouble in this world? What should we do?"

"You're overthinking it. Only those who stay inside the store and open the door enter our world, not their own. So, what you're describing is impossible. If that were to happen, the problem would probably be solved before they even left the store."

"By you?"

"If you want to take action, that's fine too~"

Lucifer waved his hand and said, "I think I'll pass. If I take action, those guys from Hell will sense it and come running out. I don't want to ruin our current life."

"If you don't want to go back, just stay here~ It's fine~"

"It's not that I'm worried about that. What I'm worried about is them causing trouble, especially those few with particularly peculiar personalities."

Bai Yu nodded without saying much. He was also wondering if things would get chaotic and give him a headache if those guys from Hell really came up...

Just then, the door lit up, and Lucifer instinctively sensed a sense of crisis. Bai Yu was slightly taken aback; the number of guests from the other world had been arriving rather high today...

Just then, a girl dressed in a red ninja outfit rolled in warily, holding a fan in her hand. Bai Yu and Lucifer both stared at the girl speechlessly.

The girl seemed to sense the two gazes as well. She looked up and saw Lucifer, who was twitching at the corner of his mouth and trying not to laugh, and Bai Yu, who had a smile on his face. The girl felt a little embarrassed after realizing that there were no enemies around, since the posture was rather impolite.

When the girl stood up, her figure made Lucifer squint. She had a feeling that something bad was about to happen, but she had no evidence. She just assumed it was a lingering effect left by Esdeath.

Just as the girl was about to speak, the door lit up again, and this time a man walked in. But that wasn't the key point. The key point was that Bai Yu was somewhat stunned; he had never seen two guests arrive one after the other before...

P.S.: Three out of four have arrived, there's one left. Guess who it is~ Here's a clue.

Chapter 126 Mai Shiranui, Roronoa Zoro (Please subscribe~)

Bai Yu looked at the situation before him and didn't know what to say. It was normal for many guests to come, and it was also understandable for many guests from other worlds to come. But Bai Yu was sure that this was the first time he had ever seen a situation where one person came in and another came in right after the first.

The man walked into the room, paused for a moment, then scratched his head and said, "Huh?! Where is this?! Isn't this the ship's lounge?!"

Bai Yu stared at the man for a moment, then smiled and said, "This is a restaurant in another world."

"Oh, it's a restaurant... wait... wait a minute?! Another world?!"

Whether it was Bai Yu, Lucifer, or the girl who had just climbed in, everyone looked at this thick-skinned man with a speechless expression.

At that moment, the girl was also stunned. Her proud figure straightened up, and she looked at Bai Yu with a look of horror, exclaiming in a delicate voice, "Is this another world?!"

This time, it was the man who looked at the girl speechlessly. The girl seemed to realize what had happened and said somewhat awkwardly, "Sorry for being a bit rude. What I meant was, can I still go back?"

Bai Yu smiled and said, "Of course, no problem. This is just a restaurant. You can choose to eat something here or rest for a while. If you want to go back, just open the door and walk back."

Hearing this, the girl breathed a sigh of relief. Her impressive figure once again proved her weight. Lucifer looked down at himself and thought, "Hmm! I can't see her toes!" Then he nodded in satisfaction.

The man cracked his neck, placed the three knives from his waist on a table, sat down in a chair, and said with a smile, "This place looks good. What do you have to eat?"

"All the ingredients here can be made into dishes."

The man was stunned for a moment, then widened his eyes and said, "Wow! Let me think... I know... then it's meat!"

Bai Yu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and nodded. He then turned to the girl and said with a smile, "So, this one..."

Bai Yu really didn't know how to address this girl, because she was clearly a ninja, and he didn't know if it would be appropriate to call her "Miss" or "Lady".

The girl quickly replied, "I'm Mai Shiranui. Can you do anything here, shopkeeper?"

"Yes, is there anything you'd like to eat?"

After thinking for a moment, the girl tentatively asked, "May I eat peony cake?"

"No problem, these are very nice snacks, but is snacks enough?"
