Chapter 592: Of Course A Sweets Shop Is A Must
"Can I pat you?" I asked Emilia directly.
She gave me a weird look before smirking, "One hundred Creas per pat."
I tilted my head, "Is it per stroke of the hand or is it per session?"
She lifted an eyebrow, "Wait, are you being serious?"
I pulled out a small silver coin, "Yes, now hurry up. Is it per stroke or per session?"
She looked down at the coin in my hands, then at me, then back to the coin., repeating that motion for at least six more times before finally answering me.
"Per session."
"Done."
I tossed the coin at her and she snatched it out of the air, the coin disappearing before I could even see where she stored it.
I then pounced on her and started patting her head aggressively.
Waahhh!! Her hair is so soft!! And her ears too!! They're so perky and nice to touch! Ahhhh!! This is so worth a hundred Creas!!
"He... Hey?! I... I didn't say you could... Nnggh... Don't... Don't stick your face there! What are you... Ooohh... Not... Not there... That's... Cheating... Purrrr~"
Hmm? I think she was saying something to me but I was so engrossed in the feeling of her hair and her ears that I wasn't paying attention.
She's so fluffyyyyy~
Just as I was really getting into it, the Nekomata suddenly pulled away, "Ngghh!! That's enough!"
"Aww... Just five more minutes?" I pleaded.
"Purrr... Hngg! No! That was way more than what I agreed on!"
I pouted at her but she wasn't budging.
Oh well...
I dug out another silver coin and her eyes widened for a moment before she surprisingly turned away.
"No... No deal anymore. That was a one time thing."
Seriously? She's saying no to money?
"What about... Two hundred Creas?" I asked, adding another coin on top of the first one.
"Ngghhh!! No! No deal!"
"Three hundred?"
"Hnnngg!! I... Just... Just a bit-- No! Stop it!"
"Four hundred?"
"Oh! You're here, Aster!"
'Welcome, Aster! <3'
I blinked, feeling a little surprised to see Odeta, Lisa and Delmare all seated there in their casual clothes. I'm guessing Katsuki wasn't here because she must be watching over me from somewhere.
The three of them had some kind of dessert on a plate in front of them and some hot beverages at the side.
I turned to Emilia, "You can't be saying that this is a coincidence, can you?"
She gave me a wry smile, "If you must know, the idea of coming here came from them. They even told me that I should bring you to a sweets store that at least has a private room so that you could take off your mask or it would not be worth it. They then insisted on at least being present to watch as well."
To watch? Watch what? To watch Emilia and I eat dessert? Well... I won't say that's a weird hobby to have but... Why?
I decided not to question it when Lisa beckoned at me and held up a piece of what looked like a chocolate cake that she had cut out from her own plate.
I immediately went to her side and swallowed the cake she had offered me, relishing the sweetness that filled my mouth and even making me give out a moan of pleasure.
I then realised that Odeta and Delmare were also trying to offer me sweets that they had picked up from their own plate and I happily ate them all.
Mmm!! Mango pudding and a scoop of vanilla ice cream!! So sweet! So good!!
Before I knew it, I had sat down at the table with my mask stored in my Pack of Folding while my table was filled with sweets of all kinds that occupied every single visible space on its surface.
I was already happily shoving each one into my mouth and enjoying the sweetness that was exploding inside my mouth, giving me utter bliss.
I wasn't even sure where the sweets had came from and who was feeding them to me but I was still grateful nevertheless and munched down on every single dessert that was presented to me.
"You're right... The mask really hid it... I didn't get the fuss since she had eaten some sweet rolls earlier and I didn't really see any changes."
"Ha! If you know anything about her, you would also know that these are just the start, she's not even remotely done yet!"
"What else can happen? I can already see what the deal is in letting her eat all these sweets... Don't tell me you did something to her last night with your potions?"
She scoffed, "Please. Aster is not my lab rat, there's no need for me to do something like that! look, look! It's starting!"
I think I heard Lisa and Emilia conversing at the side but I wasn't that focused on them considering the fact that I had a bunch of chocolate chip cookies dipped in some sweet sauce I was enjoying at the moment.
Anyway, those two were friends in the first place so it wasn't that surprising for them to be talking to each other, right?
Ohh! I found the ice cream!! I'm gonna use this to dip my cookies in too! Ahhh!! Everything is so good! So sweet!!
It feels like my entire body is filling up with happiness!! It's so good!!
"... I see what you mean now."
"See? Burn that image into your mind because that's worthy of a national treasure by itself, don't you think? Can't put a price tag on that, can you?"
"I admit... No I can't."
Om nom nom~ Hmm? I wonder what they were talking about?
Oh well, none of my business! More eating, less talking!
