Chapter 531 Little Conspiracy

I have never understood the charm of Emily in Zephyr Continent. Today, I finally got to see it.

I was really surprised that Cagalli, who has always been jealous, was able to make such a promise.

But I know that this is almost impossible to achieve. No matter how boring Emily's character is, her beauty and strength alone can completely make up for it all.

Of course, it's not just that. With her relationship with the Elf Queen, she is a general aristocratic power. It is extremely difficult to get a glimpse of her perfect beauty in normal conditions.

A girl who wants power, beauty, and strength is simply not something we can get our hands on.

I smiled dryly at Cagalli, spread my hands, and said, "I'll try my best, but it's not very likely."

Cagalli suddenly sighed: "Actually, I also know that this is impossible. I just thought about it for a moment. Don't take it too seriously."

Go ahead, this turn of events is too hurtful.

So, I decided to change the subject and change my mood: "Did you find the special coffee beans?"

"No," Cagalli said.

"But we found a special new food~" Barbara was happy.

"It's a new food for you. I'm almost tired of it." Lilea curled her lips.

"But it's really delicious~" Phoenix said in a milky voice, turned around in front of me, stretched out his little hand, and stuffed a red berry into my mouth.

After chewing it twice, the full juice burst out. For a moment, my mouth was filled with a sweet and sour taste. Then I chewed it twice more, and the sweet and sour taste became stronger.

"Hmm, not bad, very delicious" I praised: "What is this?"

"This is a berry," Lillea said, "it's called ruby."

I seemed to have heard "Ruby" somewhere. After thinking for a moment, I said, "I remember that there seems to be a grape called Ruby in Moonlight City, which can be used to make wine. The taste is very good."

"Yes," Lilea said: "This ruby ​​berry is also a type of grape, but it cannot be used to make wine."

"Then what can it be used for?"

"This is such a boring question," Lillea said, "Of course it's for eating~"

"That's true." I nodded: "This thing tastes quite good when eaten directly, but haven't you thought of other uses?"

"What other uses do you mean?"

"Of course it's about food," I said, "Then what do you think it is?"

Lilea casually took out a ruby ​​grape, took a look at it, and muttered: "Oh, it turns out it is for eating. I thought it was used for fighting."

"Haha" I laughed dryly: "You are thinking too much. I was just wondering, since it can't be used to make wine, can it be used to make cakes or something?"

"Huh? There is such a way? Why didn't I think of it?" Lilea said in surprise.

"Well, have you never thought of other uses?" I asked.

"I have thought about it," Lilea said: "We have tried various methods of brewing wine, but they all failed in the end."

Khan, you are really persistent.

Taking the berries with us, we returned to the treehouse of the café, where the proprietress was sitting at a dining table writing and drawing.

"Aunt! We're back~" Barbara rushed to the landlady like a bird.

The landlady stroked Barbara's hair lovingly and said, "Did you gain anything?"

Everyone is silent.

She raised her head and glared at me.

"Ah? Are you asking me?" I tilted my head.

"Then who do you think I'm asking?" The landlady laughed and said, "Or do you want to try my recently invented fighting skills?"

"Don't mention it, just tell me what you have to say." I said hehey, "If you want to talk about the gains, there are indeed some."

With that said, I asked Phoenix for a ruby ​​grape. I walked up to the proprietress and handed it over: "Here, this is it."

"What is this?" asked the landlady.

"This is called ruby. It's a kind of grape. Lilea said it can't be used to make wine, so" I said, "I'm going to think about it and make them into cakes to see how they taste."

"Well, it's a very creative idea," the landlady said, "Then you go and try it."

As she spoke, she pointed to the kitchen.

However, I encountered a problem: "I can't make pastries."

"You don't know how to make cakes?" The landlady's eyes widened: "Do you want me to do it?"

I spread my hands and said helplessly: "This is the only way."

The landlady came into the kitchen with an unhappy look in her eyes. Before entering the kitchen, she beat me to a pulp. As for what kind of fighting skills it ended with, I don't remember - because I was already unconscious.

When I woke up, I smelled the scent of cookies.

Sitting up from the sofa, he saw the proprietress and the others sitting around the dining table, tasting the freshly baked biscuits with happy faces.

"Are you awake?" The landlady pushed the plate and said, "Try it, it's just baked."

After shaking my sore shoulders and rubbing my still aching arms, I walked to the dining table, picked up a piece, and bit into it.

The crispy cake has a strong sweetness, and the sweetness is also filled with a hint of sourness. This taste is simply not good!

While chewing, I gave a thumbs up: "Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh!"

"Swallow what's in your mouth first." The lady boss shook her wrist again, which scared me so much that I almost choked in my throat.

After hurriedly swallowing it, I praised: "It's so delicious, it's a rare delicacy."

In fact, I don’t need to say it, you can feel it just by looking at the performance of the four Phoenix girls - they chewed small mouths while covering their small cheeks, with happy faces on their faces.

Phoenix couldn't help but murmured: "Good times, good times~"

I pulled up a chair, sat down, and asked Lilea: "How do you feel about the taste?"

Lilea took a small bite and said, "It's great, it's delicious, I like it very much."

"Do you think this will be welcomed by your tribe?" I asked.

"Of course," she said: "The delicious ones must be the most popular. We elves are very honest in this regard~ unlike some people~~~"

As she spoke, she glanced at me and made a series of hums.

"Well, have I ever been dishonest?" I wondered.

She ignored me and continued to chew biscuits. The other women looked at me and smiled, chewing biscuits without making a sound.

Even the boss lady ate the cookies without saying a word.

I fell into troubled memories, but I turned over and over again, but I couldn't remember where I was dishonest.

Sighing, I reached for the biscuits on the plate, and then I realized that the plate had become bare, not even a single biscuit crumb was left!

In an instant, I suddenly realized that I had been trapped!

It turns out that there was no dishonesty on my part at all, it was all a conspiracy by Lilea not to let me share the cookies!

I should have reacted when I saw the smiling expressions of the three girls!

hateful!

Cursing herself bitterly, Lilea looked up and showed a sly smile.
