Daddy Fantasy World Restaurant

“I’m sorry, this a rule of our restaurant, and we can’t make an exception even if you pay double the price.” Yabemiya shook her head once again.

“You see now? Even if you want to taste both flavors, Mag won’t sell it to you. Just get a savory tofu pudding.” The elderly man from before chuckled as he ate a spoonful of his savory tofu pudding, upon which a blissful expression appeared on his face.

*Arrrgh! I’m so angry! I don’t want to eat here anymore! *Vivian was furious, but she looked at Yabemiya’s bubbly smile and the delicious scent of tofu pudding and grilled fish in the air, and she couldn’t help but salivate profusely. She took a deep breath, and turned to Yabemiya again as she said, “Alright, then I’ll just get a savory tofu pudding and a super spicy grilled fish.”

“Alright, your order will be ready soon.” Yabemiya nodded with a smile, and turned to leave.

“Hmph, they’re lucky that I’m an easygoing person. Otherwise, I’d turn around and... and...” Vivian looked at the spicy grilled fish that had just been placed down on the neighboring table, and she swallowed the rest of her sentence along with the drool that was threatening to overflow.

...

“We’ve really done well today, Boss. If things continue like this, we’ll be able to save up enough to buy roujiamos for the entire winter.”

“One bronze wild boar, two green winged snakes, and one sawtooth tiger; that’s enough for many days worth of roujiamo.” Outside the restaurant, Mond and Kiel looked at Sargeras with excitement on their faces. Both of them had a few small cuts on their faces, but they didn’t appear to have suffered any major injuries.

“The roujiamo is extraordinarily effective for progression. I feel like I won’t have to eat that many roujiamo before I’ll be able to make another breakthrough!”

Cossus, Calzac, and Markza were also very animated. Ever since they had tasted the roujiamo for the first time, the first thought in their mind when they woke up every day was: “For roujiamo! We must fight for roujiamo! We must complete more missions for roujiamo!”

Only through eating more roujiamo could they become more powerful. This was a path to unprecedented power, and they were extremely excited to have discovered it.

“Winter is coming soon, and the weather has been colder this year than in the previous years, which suggests that this winter might last longer than usual. We have to prepare more roujiamo to cope with that.” Sargeras shook his head with a grave expression, and said, “On top of that, a third group of brothers is expected to join us soon, so we have to make preparations for that. Once the weather starts to get colder, prey will become more and more difficult to find.”

All of the demons’ expressions also became grimmer upon hearing that.

Sargeras raised his folding to the sky, and yelled loudly, “Let’s work hard for our tribe, and for roujiamo!”

“For roujiamo!” the lava demons yelled in unison, and they were full of vigor once again.

“These demons... are a little adorable.”

All of the customers looked outside the restaurant upon hearing the commotion, and many of them wore benevolent smiles as they did so. Those lava demons visited the restaurant every day for roujiamo, and despite their intimidating appearance, they were all gentlemen on the inside. They abided by all of the restaurant’s rules, and even helped to maintain order in the restaurant. In order not to affect the dining experience of the other customers, they voluntarily stood outside to eat, and many customers had developed a fondness for them.

*Roujiamo? Is that what those lava demons are going crazy for? *Vivian looked outside with a hint of surprise on her face. She then flipped open her menu again as she was curious to see just what kind of dish his roujiamo was.

*No matter what it is, it can’t be more delicious than my spicy grilled fish. I could eat that dish every day for the rest of my life. The medium spice was already very satisfying yesterday; I’m really looking forward to tasting the super spicy grilled fish today. *Vivian glanced at the kitchen with yearning and anticipation in her eyes.

“Here is the savory tofu pudding you ordered. Enjoy.” Yabemiya emerged from the kitchen with a bowl of savory tofu pudding, and set it down in front of Vivian with a smile.

“Thank you.” Vivian nodded as she turned her attention to the tofu pudding in front of her.

Reddish-orange juices had been poured on top of the tofu pudding, along with pickled vegetables, coriander, minced garlic, chopped green onions, and a few drops of sesame seed oil. Steam was still rising from the freshly made tofu pudding, and its delectable scent wafted toward her.

“Gulp.”

Vivian couldn’t help but swallow. However, she quickly realized that she had lost her composure, and she coughed to hide her embarrassment. She sat up straighter in her chair, and said, “I actually only want to eat the spicy grilled fish, but seeing as it’s not ready yet, I guess I have no choice but to have this first. Still, I think the spicy grilled fish is the most delicious dish.”

Yabemiya smiled, but didn’t say anything. She found this young man to be quite amusing. He would occasionally ramble to himself, but his personality appeared to be quite good, and he was not an unreasonable person.

Vivian picked up her spoon, and gently dug into the tofu pudding. The spoon sliced through the soft tofu pudding as if it were slicing through water, and the reddish-orange juices on top immediately seeped into the incision. As her spoon dug deeper into the tofu pudding, its aroma became even more pronounced, and her eyes lit up with anticipation.

Due to her condition, she always had to eat very bland foods, so when she snuck out for meals, she always preferred to find some dishes that were really strong in flavor in order to stimulate her taste buds.

However, even though the tofu pudding’s aroma wasn’t very strong, it still evoked a powerful craving within her.

The tofu pudding slid down her tongue, and it melted in her mouth along with the savory juices. The complementary ingredients also contributed to enhancing the flavor, and even after swallowing the mouthful of tofu pudding, its delectable flavor continued to linger in her mouth.

*It’s so delicious! What is this stuff? How could it be so smooth and tender? It’s not water, but it melts in my mouth, and I can taste a faint hint of seafood in it. Those dried shrimp are very small, but they’re full of flavor. Even the pickled vegetables here are different from any that I’ve tasted before. The flavor is just right, and complements the tofu pudding to perfection. *Vivian stared at the tofu pudding with incredulity on her face. Its flavor was completely different from that of the spicy grilled fish, but it was just as captivating.

One mouthful was not enough! She simply couldn’t stop after eating the first spoonful!

She shoveled one spoonful of tofu pudding after another into her mouth, and a blissful smile appeared on her face as the delicious taste spread over her palate.

*Spicy grilled fish is the best! But... tofu pudding is also very delicious! *Vivian had already completely forgotten what she had said earlier; her mind was completely preoccupied with the tofu pudding!

“As expected, savory tofu pudding really is the best.” The elderly man from before nodded with contentment. He reluctantly placed the last spoonful of tofu pudding into his mouth, and savored it slowly before swallowing it.

“Even though the flavor was rather ordinary... seeing as the spicy grilled fish isn’t ready yet, I’ll get another savory tofu pudding.” Vivian put down the bowl that she had just licked squeaky clean as she turned to Yabemiya. Even though her expression was quite calm and collected, the tips of her ears were a little red.

“I’m sorry, I can’t.” Yabemiya shook her head with a resolute expression.
