The place where Chaolu led Yili and her group turned out to be... a restaurant?
Because the long rectangular table placed in the center looks like a dining table. After all, there are candles, dinner plates and other things on it. When Zhaolu came in with Yili and the others, there were other
The maid was placing the tableware, and it was obvious that when Chao Lu learned that Yi Li was coming, she had already ordered the other maids to prepare.
It was indeed time for dinner. Ever since I got this new body, I had lost the so-called feeling of hunger, and it seemed that it didn't matter even if I didn't eat for a few days.
It's just that when she was still in Nazarick, Ainz's father told her that she must eat three meals a day, so when Iri was in Nazarick, she still ate according to the normal three meals a day time.
The same was true during the empire.
However, after arriving in the Silian Theocracy, it was no longer so strict. Almost every time, Beilu reminded him that he thought of going to eat.
After everyone saw this formation, they also understood that Chaolu was going to entertain everyone for dinner, and they felt a little relieved. Inviting them to dinner at least means that they have no ill intentions towards you, right?
However, there was a very famous event in my world in the past. Do you want to know more about Hongmen Banquet?
Inviting you to dinner may not necessarily make you feel kind, but judging from the current situation, Chaolu has no reason to hold a Hongmen Banquet.
So, everyone sat down one after another under Chaolu's guidance. Before sitting down, Yili also noticed that the dining table was equipped with eight chairs, four of them facing each other, and the upper seat in the middle was empty.
Generally speaking, according to this kind of urine, the position of the boss is not the top position. From this placement, it seems that the Eight Desire Kings also had a quite peaceful time, sitting together and having a good meal. In this way, why do they have to fight among themselves?
?This is unknown.
Judging from the details seen above, this is the restaurant used by the Eight Desire Kings back then. Compared with the luxurious main hall, the restaurant is much more restrained. There is no dazzling gold decoration.
.
"Everyone is the guest of Lady Yili, so please look forward to Eleonteyou's reception!" Chaolu said after everyone took their seats, standing next to Yili.
After finishing speaking, he clapped his hands. The side of the restaurant was pushed open, and then the maids pushed in small dining carts one by one. Each small dining cart was filled with a large plate covered by a dining cover.
It seems that Chaolu has indeed been prepared for it.
It had only been more than half an hour since she first entered Sky City, and she had already prepared dinner. The heavily armored knight guarding the door should have prepared it immediately after notifying her!
Seeing the food being served, everyone except Yili showed very curious expressions. It was not that Yili was not curious at first. She also wanted to see what kind of dishes Eleonteyou could serve.
However, Yili, who has a nose that is more sensitive than a dog's, already knew what was being served when the dining cart rolled up.
Well! After all, the King of Eight Desires also traveled through time from the World Tree game, so it was understandable that the dishes he brought out were the same as those in Nazarick, Iri thought with disappointment.
That's right... when the maids brought the plates one by one to everyone and opened them, everyone's eyes widened with the exception of Yili.
Yili said that she had eaten it in Nazarick countless times, so she didn't feel much. Moreover, she had to disguise herself as Bai Xia, so naturally she couldn't show too much surprise.
"What...what does this mean?!" However, after the portion in front of Beilu was revealed, Beilu immediately had an opinion! Because Beilu was sitting at the back, he was also the last one to reveal the portion.
The other ones were covered with Jotunheim's Frostborne Dragon Steak. Only Beilu was a fresh fish that was still alive and kicking. Moreover, the fresh fish looked quite ferocious, and its mouth full of fangs looked like it was eaten.
A breed that grows meat.
"Hmm? Do you have any objections? I prepared this especially for you, so you should thank me properly." Chao Lu didn't even look at Bei Lu, and said expressionlessly.
"Isn't this... still alive? How can we eat this!" Beilu looked at the lively fish, and opened its mouth wide at her, trying to jump onto Beilu. Beilu quickly took it from the maid next to her.
Li snatched the dinner cover and forced the fresh fish back into his mouth.
"You really don't understand my painstaking efforts? Doesn't the smelly cat like to eat fish the most? This Helheim piranha is Ai Xue's favorite food. Logically speaking, you, this sneaky cat, should also eat fish with that fish.
Bi Chi likes it just as much, right?" Chao Lu still answered in that emotionless tone.
"I'm not a sneaky cat! Please...please give me the same food as them! Please!" Beilu pressed the meal cover hard to resist the struggling Helheim piranha.
, while requesting.
"Chaolu, I'm begging you too..." Yili couldn't stand it anymore. Although Chaolu played with Beilu like this, Yili found it quite interesting, but seeing how pitiful Beilu was, she had better help her, so Yili
He spoke.
"Tsk... Now that Lady Yi Li has spoken." Chao Lu smacked her mouth and looked a little unhappy, but it was only for a moment.
This was the second time after seeing her that she showed an expression that could be called an expression. It was very rare. Then she clapped her hands again. Another maid came in with a dining cart. This time, Beilu changed into a dress.
I got the same thing as everyone else. It seems that Chaolu just wants to play with Beilu.
After this little prank, everyone started to eat. Maybe it was because of the difference in dining table culture here. When others started to eat, no one said a word.
Even Uncle Ged, who looked like a big boss, silently ate the portion in front of him, which should be a rare food that he had never seen before, without making a sound. You could see his extremely surprised look, and there was still a piece of it.
Then he quickly stuffed a piece of it into his mouth, still not saying "What the hell is this! It's so delicious!" or something like that.
Is this the so-called table manners? Belu is similar to Uncle Gad, only Ligurite and Yili still look calm.
The table manners here are really troublesome. When I ate in Nazarick, it was very lively every time. The original meal prepared for Yili was indeed similar to the one here. It was just an empty restaurant with Yili alone.
.
Waiting for the maid to deliver the meal, and then Albedo or Shalltear, Aura Marei, etc., who are free, will occasionally come over to accompany me when they are free, but most of the time, I still eat a lot by myself.
.
Naturally, Iri couldn't accept this kind of atmosphere, so she proposed that she go to the cafeteria to eat with everyone. Although Albedo and Shalltear strongly opposed it, Ainz's father still agreed with a smile.
After that, Yili would eat with the Pleiades and ordinary maids in the cafeteria, so it was very lively every time. Every time, the ordinary maids rushed to feed herself, making the cafeteria a mess.
Later, under the "coercion" of Sister Yuli, everyone agreed to take turns to solve the problem. However, Yili was quite enjoying it. It felt good to be popular among the ordinary maids.
"..." Thinking of this, Yili couldn't help but glance back at Chaolu, who was waiting behind her. The feeling was the same as when she was eating alone in Nazarick!
"Is there any problem? Is the food not to your liking? Master Yi Li?" Chao Lu immediately noticed Yi Li turning her head to look at him and spoke directly.
"Nothing...it's delicious. I just don't like this kind of atmosphere." Indeed, Yili really doesn't like this kind of quiet atmosphere where everyone eats their own food. Isn't eating meant to be happy, talking and laughing?
Is it fun to eat together?
Well! Although I am indeed a princess of a country, according to the table manners here, my idea is indeed a bit out of place. After all, I have to follow the Romans!
"Because there are guests here this time, Master Yili, please be patient for a little longer." Chaolu replied to Yili.
Chaolu's seemingly normal response made Yili notice a detail, and she could see that Bai Xia was also a very informal person like herself.
Chaolu said, there are guests here this time... Does that mean that when there are no guests, you just mess around?
That is to say, Bai Xia was not the person who followed the table manners here before, right?
Hmm! Another piece of information has been obtained. Although it seems to be irrelevant information, there may be opportunities to deal with this Lord Bai Xia in the future, so as much as you can learn is as much as you can.
Moreover... From Chaolu's attitude towards herself first, and the sentence just now, it can be seen that Chaolu knows Bai Xia very well, which means that Chaolu may be the person around Bai Xia, in which case he should be more careful.
!
"It's a pity. It would be great if everyone could sit down and eat together." Yi Li said looking at Chao Lu.
Let’s test it out! This is what Yili thought. Yili said this because she wanted to see Chaolu’s reaction and see how Chaolu would respond, and then further infer Bai Xia’s character through Chaolu’s response so that she could gain a head start when dealing with him in the future.
machine.
"..." This was the third time. When she saw Chao Lu's expression on her face again, she saw Chao Lu frowning and then instantly returned to her expression of nothingness. This reaction was a bit beyond Yi Li's expectation.
Besides, did I say something wrong? But what I just said didn’t seem like it would offend anyone, right?
"Lord Yi Li, you...have you forgotten my identity?" Chao Lu, who returned to her three-no mode, asked again without any tone or emotion.
"This..." Yili was at a loss for words. How does this have to do with identity? You can't hit it with eight poles, right? This is terrible. If you admit that you don't know, then everything will be over and you can only
Once again, I used the excuse that I am not Bai Xia and you misunderstood me without permission.
"Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, that's enough." Chao Mian spread his hands expressionlessly, and then turned his gaze to the pillar in the hall facing Chao Lu.
"Chaolu Iron Fist..." Then he saw Chaolu raise his left hand towards the pillar and aim it at it, saying this without emotion or tone.
The next second, Chao Lu's fist was like a ignited missile. It flew out and hit the pillar, making a hole in the pillar. This move frightened everyone present, including Yi Li.
.
"I didn't expect that Lady Yili wouldn't even remember my real body! It seems that the side effects of turning into a girl are quite serious. Lady Yili should distribute more of the nutrients stored in her chest to her brain."
Before everyone could recover, Chao Lu's fist was launched and then reattached to her arm. Chao Lu still had the same emotionless tone and continued to mutter.
Is Chaolu's body actually an automatic doll like Xizhi? But Yili remembers seeing Xizi coming to eat in the cafeteria in Nazarick, right? In this way, why Chaolu was involved in the issue of identity just now?
I figured it out. Chaolu’s body is similar to Xizi’s automaton. It doesn’t need to eat or can’t eat at all, right?
"I understand... but you don't have to demonstrate it yourself, right?" Although Yi Li understood what Chaolu's true form was, wouldn't it be better to just say this directly?
Although it would be more convincing to look at the facts directly, it would be a bit excessive to directly smash the pillars of one's own house. Although I had demolished the buildings in Nazarick many times when I was practicing skills in Nazarick before.
, such as a certain arena! Arena! and arena and so on.
But that was with permission, but this was good. It allowed Chaolu to show his character. Next, he had to be more careful. But it was like this. Chaolu had not yet doubted that he was not actually a white person.
Is Master Xia here?!
"Thank you, Lord Yi Li, for your concern. I only used 1% of my strength, so there is no problem at all." Chao Lu seemed to have misunderstood Yi Li's meaning, and stretched out the left hand he had just launched in front of Yi Li, letting Yi Li see.
Do you think Yili is worried about whether there is something wrong with her hand?
However, Yili felt more sorry for that pillar. Since she had misunderstood it, let her misunderstand it. It was not her own thing anyway, so just tear it down... Yili thought rather helplessly.
Others... stared at Chaolu, especially Ligurite. Seeing the complicated expression on Ligurite's face, it seemed that she believed Chaolu's statement that she only used 1% of her efforts, right?
Whether this is 1% is worth debating. If Chaolu didn't bluff people, what would the power of 100% output be like? I feel that the destructive power should be as strong as a full-level NPC? Then... let's decide, Chaolu
It's a full-level NPC.
Just before the afterglow of the morning exposure iron fist had passed, there was a bang, and something violently knocked open the side door, and then a black figure appeared at a speed that even Irina's eyesight could not catch.
He came out from the side door and pounced on Yili before she could react.
Damn it, this guy has no breath again! These people really can’t all be automatic dolls! Yili complained in her heart while getting ready to deal with the attack, but in an instant... Chaolu suddenly appeared on the side.
The speed between Yi Li and the black shadow was like teleportation, which made Yi Li even more convinced that Chao Lu was a full-level NPC.
"Meow hahaha! Mr. Bai Xia!!!" The black shadow plopped directly into Chao Lu's arms. Without even seeing the person clearly, he hugged Chao Lu hard and called Bai Xia's name.
.
"Hey! Ai Xue, the stinky cat, welcome to jump into my arms." Chao Lu said in the same tone without emotion or emotion.
"Bah, bah, bah! You guy! Don't block the way! No wonder it's as hard as a steel plate! I thought when did Mr. Bai Xia become as scrappy as you!" The man who threw himself in Chaolu's arms
The black shadow instantly flashed back several steps as if teleporting, and then Yi Li saw what Chao Lu said about Ai Xue's appearance.
What a mistake! Second shot! This is how Yi Li feels at this moment.
