"General Conquering the Evil Spirit Set Meal?"

Maria looked at the unique menu that took up one side and turned her head slightly.

The waiter next to her was not just her own thug as she had seen before, but a professionally dressed person.

When he saw the appearance of Maria and the others, he was stunned for a few moments, but he quickly regained his composure, squinting his eyes and chuckling.

"This is one of the most popular set meals in recent years. It's primarily based on wild delicacies, the same items that General Zhengshou often ordered when he visited us back then... Our restaurant is a thousand-year-old establishment... Although there have been some minor changes along the way, the menu remains the same as it was back then!"

The waiter spoke in a professional yet gentle tone, "I guarantee that what you'll eat is exactly the same as what the general used to eat back then!"

"...A single meal?"

Maria blinked, her tone calm.

She didn't have any thoughts on what the other party said, she just wanted to order some food.

As for the so-called history...

They dared to say that Maria would not even admit it.

The reason why she ordered the same thing every time she came was simply because those foods were on the first page.

"Um... there are singles and pairs... but for three, it seems there aren't any."

The waiter was stunned for a few moments. General Zhengsui's fame in Dayan was unquestionable. Basically, every time he mentioned him, no one would refuse.

I didn't expect...

Maria and others actually didn't listen?

"Then two people..."

The puppet spoke and wanted to order food.

But Maria spoke decisively.

"Then let's take this one...are there three people in this one?"

"Well... yes, the family reunion set meal does include a meal for three people."

The waiter took a second look.

After confirming that Maria was the one in charge, he nodded slightly.

After confirming a few more times, he nodded and left.

The puppet on the side was a little puzzled.

"I don't need to eat, Hunter... Can't you just eat with Ceobe?"

"…I've learned a lot over the years, Puppet."

Maria blinked, raised her head, and looked at the figure in front of her that looked almost the same as herself.

Although the doll has been following Maria for many years, Maria's eyes at this moment still made her heart beat suddenly.

She always felt that...Maria at this moment...

Not quite the same...

She's gentler...

"Maybe you really don't need to eat, maybe you really don't need a normal life... But in my eyes, you are unique, doll."

Maria spoke calmly, her fingers gently teasing the ears of the girl next to her, making Keobe giggle and shake her ears.

"You and I are no different... In fact, when I first met you, I thought of you as my sister, my brother..."

"We have been together for who knows how many years."

"Perhaps I will change even more in the future, becoming someone even stranger to myself."

"But I believe that even then, you will still be by my side, supporting me..."

"I don't know how to repay your support, doll. All I can do is treat you as myself..."

Maria softly expressed her inner thoughts and raised her head slightly.

This was one of the rare times when she spoke her true feelings to the doll.

She thought the doll would still sit there quietly and look at her with a smile as before.

But the reality was completely different from what she thought.

At this time, the doll turned its head and covered its face with its hands, as if it was worried that Maria would see her appearance.

But Maria could still see the other person's cheeks, which were not rosy...

"Doll?"

Maria was a little confused.

The puppet also seemed to realize it belatedly and trembled slightly.

After taking several breaths, she reluctantly turned her head and looked at Maria.

"Evil-minded hunter..."

She muttered, her tone a little coquettish.

Although there was no rosy color on his face, any normal person should be able to sense the other person's complicated mood at the moment.

But unfortunately, although Maria said that she has changed a lot, she is obviously still confused when it comes to human feelings.

"Ok?"

"Nothing."

Although Maria's words made the doll feel uneasy, she quickly returned to her original calm demeanor, with her eyes slightly lowered, revealing no flaws.

It has to be said that for people like Maria, true feelings are often the most damaging when they are revealed.

At least, the puppet couldn't imagine under what circumstances he could refuse Maria's words.

She felt like she was going to explode just a little bit.

I can’t stand it!

I can't stand it at all!

It was the etiquette she had adhered to from the beginning to the end that allowed her to keep her distance. Otherwise, just based on the words just now, she would have been unable to resist hugging Maria directly.

She couldn't refuse...

"Ok?"

Maria didn't quite understand the doll's reaction at this moment. She was silent for a few seconds, then turned her head away without saying a word.

Soon, the food was served on the table.

Neither Maria nor the doll ate much, they just tasted it symbolically.

On the other hand, Ceobe, the most favored little girl, lived up to her name. She finished a set meal for three people by herself, and she didn't look full yet...

This made Maria want to order some more.

But at this moment, the sound of hawking suddenly came from the door.

The sound is not particularly loud.

But when the diners around heard this, they all turned their heads in surprise.

"besides?"

"real or fake?"

"Didn't the special rice and flour from Dahuang arrive a long time ago? Is there another batch today?"

"Good boy, I didn't get it last time and got ridiculed by my family. I have to put in some effort this time."

For a moment, the already bustling restaurant became even noisier.

The puppet next to it was also a little curious.

"This is……"

"Special offer to Dahuang City."

Maria blinked.

"Dahuang City is an important grain center for the entire Yan Kingdom. Every year, a batch of high-quality grain is shipped from there to various places for additional sales. The price is usually three to five times that of normal grain."

As someone who has lived in Yan Country for at least a dozen years, Maria knew this piece of news.

The puppet beside him blinked and then looked at Maria again.

"Do you like these?"

"...I wouldn't say I like it, doll. I don't really need food."

Maria shook her head, but the puppet beside her already understood.

What's not needed?

No need, just like it!

Don’t you know Maria yet?

Duplicitous woman!

In that case.

"Then I'll go prepare something for you..."

The puppet slowly stood up and bowed slightly to Maria.

"You can go play with Ceobe for a while first, and then we can meet up at the cabin."

As he spoke, the puppet's eyes were still moving slightly.

Obviously, her action was not only to prepare food for the family, but also to temporarily avoid Maria.

The aftereffects of Maria's words were still there, and she could still feel her body getting slightly hot.

"That's fine too."

Maria thought about it for a few moments and then nodded, agreeing.

After all, it’s just buying something, what else can it be?

Soon, Maria took Keobe to continue her tour.

The doll exhaled, looked at Maria's back, and shook its head slightly.

Then he walked towards the place mentioned by the person who shouted.

It wasn't long before she noticed the familiar tower-shaped logo and the people from Rhodes Island who were helping with the sales.

as well as……

A woman she didn't like very much...

"Ok?"

When the doll looked at her, the woman slowly raised her head.

The scarlet eyes and white hair make the two people look very similar.

Just that appearance...

……

Maria here.

After temporarily separating from the doll, Maria didn't know where she should go.

The most important thing was that she didn't really have any place in particular she wanted to go, so she just followed Ceobe's lead.

As they walked, Maria bought various foods for Ceobe.

Keobe was also aware of Maria's care and indulgence for her. Although she had no way to repay her, she would always wait until Maria finished her first bite before accepting her food.

This made Maria feel helpless.

At this moment, Ober...seems to have regarded her as the leader of the wolves?

And it was while the two of them were strolling along the way.
