Chapter 15 Meeting?
Although Lonis felt very uneasy while using the restroom.
She was very afraid of some strange tentacle monsters suddenly appearing from the toilet and wrapping around her thighs.
Or viscous liquid falling from the ceiling, drenching her.
But in reality, Lonis finished using the restroom safely, and after that, Elus even bought her a pair of slippers from a nearby stall.
“Alright, walk by yourself.”
“Wuwu…”
Even though she was wearing slippers, Lonis was still a little uneasy.
Because she knew that Elus was going to take her somewhere, but judging by the development of the night, this place must be no good.
(Damn Elus, she must have thought of some way to torment me again.)
But although she was afraid, this feeling of the unknown made Lonis feel a little excited, and her heart couldn’t help but fantasize.
Autumn Arts Festival, there shouldn’t be too many facilities that can bully people, right?
Is she going to take me to a haunted house to scare me?
Hmph, if that’s the case, Elus underestimates me too much! I can only be tormented physically, but not mentally!
…
…
But despite thinking of many possibilities, she did not expect that the place Elus took her to was actually…
“Two distinguished young ladies, are you two?”
“Mm.”
“This way, please.”
Gorgeous gilded candlelight, square tables covered with white tablecloths, chairs as comfortable as sofas, the place Elus visited was actually a Western restaurant!
Of course, this was also part of the Autumn Arts Festival activities, organized by the students.
But this had to mention the specialty of C. Academy, there were many hidden talents among the students, and most of them had good upbringing… Therefore, although it was a Western restaurant created by students, the atmosphere was almost no different from a proper Western restaurant.
“What would you two distinguished young ladies like to order?”
“Two steaks, medium-well. Hmm, and, I want cookies, dessert… The serving order doesn’t matter, serve the steak first.”
“As you wish.”
The waiter bowed slightly and quickly left to prepare.
And looking at the luxurious decoration around, Lonis didn’t know what Elus was planning.
This black-hearted girl was still angry with me just now, how could she suddenly take me to a Western restaurant…
Speaking of which, in such a prestigious restaurant, neither Lonis in the past nor when she became a Hero had ever enjoyed it.
After all, the Hero lived a life of hardship, rarely going to such luxurious places, and before her life, she had no money to enjoy such high-class treatment.
And now…
“Hold the fork in your left hand and the knife in your right hand, I don’t need to teach you these basic etiquette, right?”
“Wuwu, wuwu…”
“Also, you can’t make loud noises in this place. So if you burn your mouth with food, you’re not allowed to scream either.”
“Mm…”
…
…
Soon, the delicious food ordered by Elus was served.
The fragrant steak was placed in an exquisite plate, crispy on the outside, but the juice inside was not lost. It’s really hard to imagine what kind of flavor it would be when you take a bite.
Elus unceremoniously raised her knife and fork, and put a piece of beef into her mouth.
Not to mention, although this black-haired girl is black-hearted, her temperament is very elegant.
Her slender fingers skillfully and nimbly cut the steak, and her flawless lips were not stained with a single drop of steak sauce.
Her big red eyes were full of intoxicated enjoyment, and her straight black side hair did not fall on the table at all.
From any angle, Elus was an outstanding and exquisite young lady, but Lonis was not.
“Wuwu… wuwu?”
Lonis also wanted to cut the steak elegantly and eat it.
But after a busy day, her arms were very weak, and just lifting the metal dinner knife kept trembling, let alone cutting the steak.
(What to do, what to do? Elus won’t seize this opportunity to bully me again, right?)
The more she couldn’t cut it, the more nervous Lonis became, and the more she wanted to exert force, causing a strand of her silver hair to accidentally touch the sauce.
“Eh?”
“Oh dear, you’re so clumsy.”
“Wuwu…”
Lonis flinched in fear, thinking Elus would activate her little toy to play with her.
But…
“Hurry up and wipe it clean, really, how can you be so careless?”
“Eh?”
“Idiot, you have to cut along the grain of the beef, that’s why it’s so hard to cut.”
Elus not only took out paper and wiped the sauce off her silver hair.
She even held her wrist and personally started teaching her the posture for cutting steak – Elus’s fingers were very cool, making Lonis feel that her skin was soft, with a unique sense of care.
“See, isn’t it cut now?”
“Mm…”
“Hurry up and eat it while it’s hot.”
“!”
Looking at the cut steak in front of her, Lonis suddenly didn’t know how to start.
Because usually Elus always bullied her excessively, tormenting her in various ways, how could she be so nice to herself?
Could it be that the girl in front of her was not Elus?
No, that’s not right!
She could still recognize her master… Although Elus was a little gentle with her, some of her speech patterns and hobbies were the same as usual.
So, is this a dream?
Lonis tentatively pinched her thigh, but…
The girl’s pained cry echoed throughout the restaurant.
“Mian! ! !”
“Lonis, what’s wrong?”
“Eh…”
The silver-haired girl’s body trembled, and she just remembered that Elus had instructed her not to exclaim in the Western restaurant.
And usually, if she disobeyed, she would be bullied or electrocuted.
So…
“Master Elus, I’m sorry!”
“Huh?”
“I didn’t mean to scream, it was just an accident…”
“Mm, then remember not to shout next time.”
“Eh?”
“Western restaurants are public places, and shouting casually is impolite.”
…
After speaking, Elus continued to eat her steak.
And Lonis was completely dumbfounded.
No little toys were activated, no punishment, not even scolding or mockery…
What was going on?
Was Elus doing this deliberately to make her lower her guard, with the intention of punishing her completely at the moment she was most careless?
To make her collapse in the Western restaurant, ridiculed by everyone as a fluffy ball – even though this young lady was so gentle, this maid was still so ill-mannered.
…
(No, it shouldn’t be like this.)
Because with the intelligence of this black-hearted girl, if she really wanted to bully her, she certainly wouldn’t use such a troublesome method as she was doing now.
Could it be…
Upon thinking of a possibility, Lonis was completely stunned.
