Hyperdimensional Warlock

Chapter 2659 Food
Fried rice with chives and eggs?
At first, Cicia refused.Although she has never heard of this kind of food, she doesn't like eggs very much, because she feels fishy no matter how they are cooked.Of course, if it's made by a gourmet wizard, that's another matter.But Maid Mana knew at a glance that she was an ordinary aunt, and she couldn't have the level of a gourmet wizard.

Most importantly, she felt even more repelled when she saw a whole pot of oil in the kitchen for making egg shreds.

She didn't like to eat oily food since she was a child, and she always felt that there was a raw taste in the oil.Raw smell and fishy smell, the two smells she hates the most are combined together, which makes her resist both physically and psychologically.

If it weren't for the enthusiasm of the head maid Mana, she would have turned around and left by now.

However, no matter how enthusiastic the head maid Mana is, she doesn't want to eat fried rice with chives and eggs.She was already thinking in her mind, how to refuse the invitation of Head Maid Mana with a tactful and harmless reason?
Maybe it's more appropriate to use "I'm full" as an excuse?
However, before Sisia found the right time to say the words of refusal, the head maid, Mana, had already put a porcelain plate full of golden rice grains in front of Sisia with a smile on her face.

Smelling the tempting fragrance, seeing the long rice wrapped in thin egg shreds, matched with the green color of shallots, Sisia, who originally wanted to refuse, felt this familiar feeling for the second time today—— Mouth fluid.

The last time was when I had cream of mushroom soup.

"Try it quickly, I brought you a spoon. Originally, it was best to use chopsticks to eat this chive and egg fried rice, but chopsticks are difficult to learn, and it took me a long time to learn how to use them, so it is better to use a spoon." .” Sitting opposite Sisia, the head maid Mana said with a smile.

What are chopsticks?This doubt flashed in Cicia's mind, but she didn't ask aloud, because all her mind was hooked by a plate of fried rice with eggs.

Or, give it a try?It smells good, maybe the taste is actually not bad?

It's really not delicious, it's a big deal to try it.

Thinking of this, under the expectant eyes of the head maid Mana, Sisia couldn't help stretching out her hand, picked up the spoon tremblingly, and scooped it into the golden mountain of rice.

Take a small spoonful, put it into your mouth, and chew it into your throat lightly.

Cicia froze for a moment.

It's... really fragrant!
I thought it was raw, fishy and greasy, but it tasted dry and fragrant.Moreover, each grain of rice is covered with egg shreds, which is very satisfying to chew.

She didn't taste any fishy smell... Maybe this body made her taste buds less sensitive?This also seems to be good.

Without the raw fishy smell, Sisia began to put spoonful after spoonful into his mouth. The more he chewed, the more flavorful he was, and his expression unconsciously showed satiety.

This taste is a bit like hot salty cheese, poured on black barley.But compared to the combination of cheese and black barley, this one is looser and not too greasy and salty.Although she still prefers the relatively light creamy mushroom soup, the fried rice with shallots and eggs is definitely not inferior to the creamy mushroom soup.

Its unique taste experience even surpasses cream of mushroom soup.

"Is it okay?" Maid Mana looked at Sisia's expression, and she could see that she didn't hate the taste of fried rice with eggs.

"I was worried that you wouldn't be able to eat chives, and I thought I'd make you a plate of egg fried rice without chives later, but since you can eat chives, it's okay."

Sicia: "It turns out that this green dish is chives. It tastes a bit strange, but it is very harmonious when eaten with egg shreds."

Head Maid Mana: "According to Mr. Jon, chives can suppress the smell of eggs and make the taste better."

"It turns out that it is used to neutralize the fishy smell." Cicia suddenly realized, no wonder she didn't taste any fishy smell.

Talking or chewing too much while eating is quite impolite in Baiyuan people's etiquette.And Cicia is a well-educated and model lady, and she has always followed these etiquettes before.

But at this moment, facing the kind smile of the head maid Mana, Cicia completely ignored the etiquette of Baiyuan people.

There are not many people worshiping the source, and it is ridiculous to take these old and rigid rules as commandments.

"Mistress Mana, may I ask you a question?"

Mana nodded happily: "Of course. Also, Miss Cicia can just call me Auntie. The name of the head maid sounds so unfamiliar."

"Okay." Cicia nodded with a smile: "I just want to ask, is this chive and egg fried rice a specialty here?"

The head maid, Mana, covered her mouth and smiled: "I used to be asked this question in real life, but I didn't expect that I couldn't escape it in the Wilderness of Dreams."

"This is not a specialty of the Wilderness of Dreams, but the food of Mr. Jon's hometown. Speaking of which, I'm not the best at making fried rice with eggs, at most it ranks third in the manor."

"The one who did the best was Mr. Jon, and the second best was Master Pat..."

Cicia was surprised: "Angel can still cook?"

The head maid Mana: "It's not the young master, it's the eldest master. The young master has actually learned how to make fried rice with eggs, but for some reason, the food always has a strange taste, sometimes it's delicious, sometimes it's very delicious. generally."

"On the contrary, the young master has always doted on the young master. He knew that the young master loves the egg fried rice made by Mr. Jon, so the young master learned how to cook shallot and egg fried rice specially for the young master. The cooking level of the young master is very good. It is very high, and I often add some other ingredients for embellishment, not only does not destroy the taste, but it is more fragrant and delicious, I can’t do this anyway.”

A sliver of understanding arose in Cicia's heart. It seemed that Angel still had an older brother.Also, the relationship is pretty good.

"Since Jon is the best, why didn't Jon do it for Angor? Instead, Angor's brother did it?"

"This, it's because of Mr. Jon..." Maid Mana had just finished her long speech when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, a voice came in from outside: "Because Teacher Jon's hands are more suitable for playing the piano or doing academic research. It is too wasteful to use them for making egg fried rice."

"It's the young master." The moment Mana heard the voice, Mana's eyes lit up and she looked towards the door.

Sure enough, after a while, Angel walked in.

Mana was very happy to see Angel, but Sisia frowned, as if thinking of something, with a cold glance, the originally harmonious atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became stiff.

Before Mana realized the change in the atmosphere, she heard Angel say: "Good day, Head Maid Mana."

"Good day." Mana replied kindly.

"Miss Cicia and I have something to talk about, can I ask Head Maid Mana to make us two cups of tea?"

Mana naturally understood that Angel had a private matter to discuss, so she nodded without hesitation: "Of course, please wait, Master and Miss Sisia."

Mana bowed lightly to the two of them, then slowly backed away.

Angel came to Sisia: "How is it? Do you think fried rice with eggs is delicious?"

Cicia gave an irrelevant answer: "Major Maid Mana is a good person."

Angor: "So?"

Cicia: "So I don't want to answer your question."

Looking at Sisian's serious expression, Angel somehow understood what she meant.

She didn't want to see Angor, so she wanted to answer Angor's question in reverse.However, the egg fried rice was made by the head maid Mana. She thinks that the head maid Mana is a good person. She didn't want to go against her conscience and say that the egg fried rice is not delicious, but she didn't want to answer that Angor was delicious, so she chose not to answer this question. .

It's a very twisted thinking, but Angel thinks that he should have guessed correctly.

As for why Sisia didn't want to see him... It was clear from Sisia's questioning.

Sicia: "You can locate my location, and do you know when I enter the Wilderness of Dreams?"

Although the words were questioning, Sisia said these words in a firm and contemptuous tone.Obviously, she believed that she was being watched by Angel, so she was naturally upset.

Angel originally wanted to find a reason to fool around, but after thinking about it for a while, he finally said honestly: "I have mastered a power in the wilderness of dreams - the gate of dreams. This power is also flourishing when other people appear here. At the same time, I can also use this power to mark specific people, and when a specific person enters, the power will remind me."

"The specific people I marked include the ancestor spirit of the barbaric cave, the leader of the barbaric cave, my mentor... There are also some people who I think need special treatment, including you."

Cicia was quite upset at first, but after hearing Angel's words, she was a little surprised.

power? !Can the power of this world be mastered by humans?Why are you telling her this?Can you talk to her about such an important matter?

Angel seemed to see through Sisia's thoughts, and chuckled: "I am not the only one who has power, and my power is the most convenient. It can locate people at any time, and can also change the location of people's entry according to my wishes."

"However, if there is no important matter, I will not use my power at will."

Cicia took a deep look at Angor. She was quite satisfied with Angor's confession.At least, it dilutes the discomfort of being watched before.

Cicia: "Then why do I need special treatment?"

Angel looked at Sisia suspiciously: "Isn't this obvious? Have you forgotten what you asked me when I was in the box before?"

"My answer is still the same as before, because you are from Baiyuan."

Cicia choked for a moment: "...Are there no other worshipers in the Wilderness of Dreams?"

"That's right, so I marked them as specific people."

Seeing Angel's expression of course, Sisia suddenly didn't know how to reply... because Angel seemed to be right.

Moreover, Angel's so-called specific people also include the high-level officials of the barbaric cave. Thinking about it this way, there seems to be nothing to be dissatisfied with?
Seeing that Sisia's expression turned warm, Angel knew that she had been entangled, so he quickly took the opportunity to ask: "If you want to know more, you can find out by yourself, or you can go to the Sky Tower to ask Frode for advice. Now, it's better to put these aside in advance and talk about my business."

"Your business? What's the matter?"

"It's urgent."

"Urgent matter?" Cicia asked suspiciously, "You guys won't retreat, will you?"

Angel: "Back? What do you mean?"

Sicia: "According to the time you left from me, most of you should have not left the alien space. Therefore, the only urgent thing I can think of is that you have been attacked, and you have been attacked while you are protected by the imprint. Then there is only one possibility, you retreat."

"Because when you retreat, the mark will not follow. Therefore, if you retreat, you will definitely fall into the void... If someone really falls into the void, those two apprentices should give up. They can't be saved. As for you, break the void." It should be possible to open the plane between the roads, just leave here."

Angel: "Is there a monster in the void?"

Sicia: "That's right. Don't ask me what kind of monsters I raised, why I raised them, and what is in the depths of the void...I can't answer these, and I don't even know the answers to some of them."

Sisia blocked all the back roads that Angel wanted to ask, and Angel could only temporarily give up asking about the secrets in the alien space.

But back to the point.

"None of us retreated. The urgent matter I mentioned is another matter." Angel: "Count Hei has left the alien space, and went into the prison ladder to check. The situation there is more than I imagined. It's even more special..."

After a pause, Angel looked at Sisia: "I just want to know, how much do you know about the situation in the Ladder of the Hanging Hell? Also, when was the last time you heard the information about the Ladder of the Hanging Prison? ?”

……

After a long while, Cicia left the Pat Manor holding the hand of the headmaid, Mana.

Cicia wanted to know more about this place, so she stopped by the Sky Tower that Angel mentioned.The head maid Mana also happened to be going to the Sky Tower to report on her duties, so she simply went with her.

Angel, on the other hand, was still sitting in the restaurant on the second floor, frowning slightly.

He got a not-so-good news from Sisia. The hanging ladder that Sisia knew about was six years ago.

The span of six years, in the eyes of Sisia, who has survived ten thousand years, can be said to be a short span of time.However, considering how cowardly the wood spirit in the Ladder to Hell is, every minute and every second of the six years, something might happen.

Maybe, during these six years, it suddenly wanted to leave?

However, it is not all bad news, there is a relatively good news.

The bottom of the Ladder of Hanging Hell was not broken right now, it was already broken before the wood spirit went to the Ladder of Hanging Hell.

However, the broken parts are all the edge walls or corners. These places are not covered by the magic energy array. No matter how good the material is, it will be eroded by time, which is a normal fragmentation.

The main places, such as the main hall and the central points of the stairs, can still be kept basically intact.

If there is no accident, as long as the magic array is not destroyed, it is possible to maintain it for another thousand years.

Looking at it now, the good news and the bad news are mixed, and the wood spirit may still continue to play dead in the hanging ladder.But the premise is that the wood spirit knows that the magic array can continue to last for thousands of years. If it doesn't know, the chance of the wood spirit changing places is still very high when looking at the surrounding buildings that are constantly broken.

Whether it is still there or not, the only way to know is to go and see for yourself.
