Shadow of the Beautiful World

4. Lust for Gluttony

A banquet was held in the mystery room.

The ghost servants in the kitchen are busy without touching the ground. Under the command of the housekeeper Xuanlan, there is also a team of ghost servants who are constantly fetching fresh ingredients from farms all over the world and even in all dimensions.

All kinds of dishes were continuously sent into the living room, and empty plates were removed.

Well, the speed at which dishes are served and the speed at which they are removed are perfectly aligned.

In the luxuriously decorated living room, beside the large mahogany round table, Ganata, surrounded by a napkin, held a fork in one hand and chopsticks in the other. His hands were constantly moving, and his small mouth was constantly chewing.

There was a table of food in front of her, and she was eating and drinking.

Although the eating speed is extremely fast, the movement is very graceful.

Merlin sat opposite Ganata, leaning on the chair, and looked at the purple-eyed girl with a happy face opposite him in a monster-like way.

Cuckoo crouched in his arms, and after returning home, Cuckoo's nervousness finally eased down, it squinted its eyes, and looked drowsy.

Following Ganata for the past few days, this Yuan Devourer is also a bit overwhelmed.

Although it claims to have a stomach like a black hole, compared to Ganata, Gugu's food intake is obviously smaller and cannot be smaller.

Xuanlan stood beside Ganata, serving tea to the distinguished guests from time to time.

The well-informed spirit looked at Ganata, and the dishes disappeared into Ganata's mouth as if thrown into a black hole, which made her a little scared.

In the past 3 hours, this girl has eaten enough food to feed a small country, but judging by the occasional rubbing of her belly, she does not feel full at all

This, is this the rhythm that will eat up the whole world?

"Eat slowly, don't choke."

Xuanlan handed a cup of tea to the purple-eyed girl, who raised her head, wiped her mouth with a tablecloth, took the tea, and smiled sweetly at Xuanlan.

The eyes of the spirit body housekeeper were a little erratic at this moment.

She felt that Ganata had become very beautiful and elegant at this moment, and that temperament was like a vortex, constantly engulfing Xuanlan's will.

She is going to be lost!

In the test of will to look directly at the Father, she must

"Cough, cough"

Merlin's well-timed cough woke Xuan Lan up.

The latter hurriedly lowered his head and stopped looking at Ganata's face and eyes.

"Oh, sorry."

The purple-eyed girl put her hand on Xuanlan's arm, she said embarrassedly:

"Every time I enjoy eating, I forget to restrain my strength. I'm sorry."

Xuan Lan smiled and said nothing more.

She pushed open the door and went to the kitchen to look at the next dishes. In the living room, only Merlin and Ganata who picked up the fork again were left.

"Are you full?"

Merlin stroked the cat in his arms, and he asked:

"Do you want to take a break and then continue eating?"

"How is it possible to be full?"

Ganata used a fork to pick up a piece of fish and put it on the plate in front of her. She knew that Merlin had something to say to her, so the girl put on full speed, changed the way she ate, and began to enjoy the sweet taste of the food.

She said without raising her head:

"Using a 1-100 level of satiety to express, it is only 0.01 now, and this also includes the nutritious meat from the previous few days."

Ganata put a piece of fish into her mouth. She chewed the food. Although her mouth was occupied, her voice sounded leisurely in the room. She said maliciously:

"You promised me, I want to eat with you~"

"I won't break my promise, you can rest assured about that."

Merlin was not intimidated, he was so confident because he was rich and powerful!

Lord Raven said in a gentle tone:

"I'm just curious, do you only eat these cooked foods? If we serve the ingredients directly, it should be faster. Are you picky eaters?"

"No, not picky eaters."

The purple-eyed girl said happily:

"I have a good appetite and can eat anything."

"Um."

Merlin nodded.

A malevolent idea crossed his mind, but he didn't say it right away.

He looked at Ganata who started to eat the cake opposite, and he asked again:

"I heard from you just now that you are the daughter of the star swallowing. I have seen this name in some classics. Star swallowing, your father, is said to be an ancient god of the universe?"

"yes."

When Ganata talked about her father, she had no sense of respect. She complained:

"My dad is a big slob. He sleeps all day and only wakes up when he eats. He is like you. He has a butler who helps him find delicious food."

"But my dad is actually very picky about what he eats. He only likes planets rich in energy, and then puts them into the 'food processor' to make energy blocks."

Ganata's little nose moved, and she said disgustedly:

"Although those energy blocks are full of nutrition, they have no taste at all. I don't like to eat those things. I prefer these delicious foods."

"Using planets for food."

Merlin rubbed his chin, he said:

"Tun Xing is an appropriate name."

"Although it's a bit presumptuous, I'm still very curious. At what level is your father, Ganata, the Great God of Devouring Stars?"

"Why are you asking this?"

The star-swallowing girl who was buried in the food raised her head, and Merlin pointed to the corner of her mouth, and Ganata immediately cleaned the cake residue from the corner of her mouth with her tongue.

She looked at Merlin, and she said:

"Anyway, it must be a level that you can't imagine, look at me!"

The eccentric girl raised her left hand, pointed to the purple bracelet on her left hand, and said:

"When I left home, Dad restrained my strength. The real me is a whole level higher than you. As for Dad, he must be at least one level higher than me."

"Multiverse level?"

Merlin narrowed his eyes.

Seeing that the big cake on the 5th floor was eaten up by the Star Swallowing Girl, he pushed a dish in front of him to Ganata, and he said:

"This nascent universe can't accommodate that kind of power, so, Ganata, can you explain your father's existence form to me?"

"Cosmic projection."

Ganata grabbed the chopsticks and threw the scorched vegetable leaves into her mouth, biting them with a crackling sound, she said casually:

"After I was born, my father told me that what he appeared in this universe was just a projection, and that the universe was evolving. Anyway, I didn't quite understand it."

"He said that none of the five great gods including him will really appear in this universe."

"They can only come in the form of astral projection, unless this universe can break through the limit again, from illusion to reality, and become a member of the multiverse dimension."

"But I am real."

The purple-eyed girl patted her towering chest, and said to Merlin seriously:

"Dad said that when I grow up, I will be the ceiling of this cosmic power, but if I want to grow up, I have to eat more and eat enough."

She blinked at Merlin, and said quite proudly:

"So you have to please me well, Heavenly Father, I will become the 'Queen of Devouring Stars' in this universe in the future, if you make me angry, I will eat your world in one bite!"

"Alright, alright, Your Lady Queen."

Merlin smiled.

The girlish personality of Ganata in front of him reminded him of those worry-free younger sisters in his family.

And from Ganata, Merlin also got important information.

According to her father's statement from the star-swallowing daughter, the universe created by the gambling dogs has its power limit fixed at the limit of a single universe-level power after its complete evolution.

This is completely consistent with what the Oneiroi said.

Oneiroi told Merlin that he had to break through again before he could access the secrets of the cosmic furnace.

In other words, Merlin has to reach the individual universe level to be eligible to save his own world before the gamblers ignite the cosmic furnace from the outside world.

Ganata

The daughter of swallowing stars, who was eating and drinking in front of his eyes, was also an ally he could win over!

After all, Tun Xing has already told the secrets of the universe to his daughter who is out of character. If the first era of this universe is destroyed, then this lovely purple-eyed girl will disappear along with this era.

No

uncertain.

Merlin blinked suddenly.

He picked up the book of Weishandi on his waist, flipped through it quickly, and finally found the description of the cosmic god swallowing stars in the book.

It is said that the real swallowing star is the only survivor after the destruction of a cosmic era. He also broke through the limit of himself in the process of destruction and rebirth, and became one of the five gods of the universe.

That is to say

If the Ganata in front of her is going to become the star-swallowing queen of this universe, she must go through a cruel era change just like her father, and become the god of creation when the next cosmic era is born.

"Is this your plan? Master Swallowing Stars"

Merlin narrowed his eyes and looked at Ganata in front of him.

He doubted that the star-swallowing girl in front of him might not even know her father's plan.

But Merlin didn't intend to tell Ganata his guess, first of all it might not be true.

Secondly, if he talks nonsense and attracts the hostility of the Star Swallowing God, that star will be very bad.

Although the swallowing star here is only a projection of the power of the multiverse, it is not much more difficult to crush him to death than to crush an ant.

A few minutes later, another batch of dishes were changed on the big dining table in front of the two of them.

The aroma from the food brightened the purple light in Ganata's eyes.

"Speaking of which, have you been wandering among the stars in a state of hunger?"

Lord Raven asked curiously:

"Wouldn't that be hard? The feeling of an empty stomach."

"not bad."

Ganata said in a relaxed tone:

"I learned how to endure hunger from my father. In fact, as long as I don't let the energy in my body lose, I can endure hunger. Although it is painful at first, it will be fine if I get used to it."

The purple-eyed girl said enthusiastically:

"And isn't staying hungry a good thing? You see, I can always enjoy the deliciousness of food, the bliss of eating, feeling the twitching stomach being filled, the feeling of getting full little by little"

"I like that feeling!"

The girl raised her head, she winked at Merlin, and said:

"But avoid fighting, just like just now, if I really fight with you, then the energy I have accumulated in this period of time will be consumed a lot, and I will become hungrier."

"But if a nourishing Father can be swallowed"

Ganata licked her lips, she stared at Merlin, her eyes were like looking at a plate of delicious and fragrant things, she said:

"I'm definitely going to get a lot fuller all of a sudden."

"Cannibal, girl."

Merlin said with a normal expression:

"You're talking about a horrible thing."

"It's just that you think it's scary."

Ganata curled her lips, she forked a piece of steak, looked at it in front of her eyes, then swallowed it in one bite, and said to Merlin while chewing:

"Just like this elephant, it is also a life. It is no different from you humans in essence, but you humans will also eat it because of hunger or pursuit of delicious food."

"In my eyes, there is no difference between you and this elephant. I respect every life, but this does not prevent me from eating them when I am hungry."

The Star Swallowing Girl stretched out a finger and shook Merlin:

"I am a human being in your eyes, but it does not mean that I am really a human being. I was born among the stars, and I have my values."

"Don't impose the values ​​of other creatures on me, and don't be bound by the rules among the stars. This is the first truth my father told me after I was born."

"I'm a good boy, but I listen to my father very much."

"Um."

Merlin nodded, and he said to Ganata:

"I've been taught, girl, and maybe I should also learn your philosophy of survival, but before that, I have a little question."

Lord Raven said softly:

"You treat all life equally, which means that when I cook a demon into a dish, you won't refuse to eat it, right?"

"Hey, I get the feeling you're thinking of some bad idea to use me!"

Ganata's lovely nose moved, she raised her head and looked at Merlin seriously.

But a few seconds later, a smile appeared on the girl's face, and she said carelessly:

"As long as it tastes good, I'm happy to taste it."

"good!"

Merlin stood up with a smile all over his face. He walked to Ganata and stretched out his hand to the purple-eyed girl. He said sincerely:

"I feel like you and I will be good friends. I mean, maybe the three of us can form a small group. Everyone needs friends. If you want to be the queen of swallowing stars, you need friends too."

"Let's get to know each other again, Ms. Ganata, my name is Merlin, Merlin Riley, the Great Lord of Wasteland Hell, I have another name called 'Vanity', and I have a younger sister named 'Arrogance'."

"You can call it 'gluttony'"

"No!"

Ganata shook her head, she glanced at Merlin's outstretched hand, she said:

"This name is too ugly, and my father told me not to play with Uncle Weird."

"I'll fill you up."

Merlin leaned down, looked into Ganata's purple eyes, and said:

"If your satiety has not reached 30% within 5 years, you can eat me, and I will definitely not resist"

"emmmm"

The purple-eyed girl poked her own face with her hand, and she looked at Merlin, seemingly unable to make a decision.

After a while, she said to Merlin seriously:

"One month! If you can really have a full meal within one month, I will join you. In addition, the name gluttony is too ugly. I am so cute, how can I be called such a name."

"A month, right? Deal!"

The two held hands together, and the orange and purple halos danced, representing the establishment of the covenant with the Heavenly Father.

Merlin looked at the purple-eyed girl, and said softly:

"In the ancient oriental culture, there is a mythical beast that can never get enough to eat. Well, you can call it 'Glutton'."

"Huh!"

Ganata's eyes widened, and the purple-eyed girl said cheerfully:

"That's good! I like the name."
