Chapter 194 : NTR Time
(Trashy master, trashy Elucia! Big pervert, big tsundere!!!)
Being treated like this by Elucia, Lonis felt like she was about to "cry from anger."
Teasing her in private was one thing, but who hands over the remote control to other people?
Even if Senior Yicheng's observation skills far exceeded ordinary people's, and their little secrets between her and Elucia might have been seen through long ago.
But this operation of transferring the remote control still gave Lonis a helpless feeling of "being sold off," like she had changed to a new master.
"Lonis, please don't worry. I won't wantonly bully you like Captain Elucia does."
"Thank you..."
"But please study seriously and diligently. If the food you make is unqualified, then I can only follow orders and activate the switch."
"Eh?"
"So, in order not to become an NTRed orthodox maid, please begin cooking noodles under my direction."
"What kind of weird explanation is that!!!!"
......
After this, Lonis began learning breakfast preparation with Senior Yicheng.
But rather than breakfast learning, it was more like a tutorial on using the kitchen utensils aboard the Time Shuttle.
The kitchen equipment here was all high-end. For example, beating eggs, separating egg liquid and egg whites, kneading dough were all completed automatically... Although the convenience was high, you also needed to understand the functions of the instrument panels and buttons. Fortunately, Lonis wasn't originally stupid and learned it all in less than half an hour.
"Oh, I see... just like a rice cooker, you just put the food in and it comes out ready?"
"That's right, but please definitely remember that different types of Magic Crystals will also affect the food's taste. For example, Sea Crystals can make food a bit saltier without needing to add much extra salt. And if it's Carbon Crystals, they come with a woody fragrance, but you must carefully watch the temperature gauge to prevent food from burning."
"Oh..."
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, let me try."
......
Watching Senior Yicheng skillfully cook various foods even with her eyes covered, Lonis eagerly tried, thinking she could do it too.
But the result was...
"Whoa! Why did it burn!!!!"
"Sigh..."
Senior Yicheng sighed helplessly and said: "Lonis, when you were cooking just now, you touched the device with your finger for too long."
"Eh?"
"You yourself are also an excellent magic source, so when cooking like this, the power level must also account for your own magic level."
"Wuu... (I-I don't understand anymore)"
"Sorry, I can only symbolically bully you a little according to Captain Elucia's requirements... there are 99 levels, should I activate level 20?"
"No! Level 1 is fine!"
After this, Lonis studied for half the morning.
Although she often burned food, at least for things like fried eggs, she could already control the heat properly.
"Hah, hah... finally, it's done."
Lonis collapsed exhausted on the kitchen counter, drenched in sweat.
"Not bad, at least this fried egg should be qualified."
"So today... can we finish?"
"Yes, but Student Lonis, won't you taste the food you cooked yourself?"
"Eh?"
"The fruits of labor can only be truly felt the moment you eat them yourself."
"Mm..."
Looking at Senior Yicheng so close by, Lonis suddenly felt startled.
When she was cooking just now and teaching her now, she was wearing an eyepatch... but why did Senior always wear an eyepatch?
She had also seen Yicheng with the eyepatch removed. Although it was somewhat dark, it wasn't that scary.
......
Thinking about such things, Lonis ate the fried egg while looking at Yicheng.
"Student Lonis, what's wrong?"
"Ah... I don't know if I should ask this question... um, does Senior Yicheng have to wear an eyepatch normally? Is this some kind of rule?"
"It's not that serious, I just find it troublesome."
While speaking, Senior Yicheng untied her eyepatch.
A pair of pitch-black eyes directly came into view... without any luster, as if they had been broken and were completely calm.
"Wuu?"
"How is it, were you scared?"
"Ah, n-not scared. I'm just very worried about whether Senior Yicheng experienced something terrible."
"Something terrible?"
"Yes, I heard from Elucia before that what we saw in the Pleasure Device in the underground commercial street was the afterimage left by Miss Yicheng. So does that mean Senior Yicheng once challenged the Trickster Demon Lord?"
What Lonis was worried about was exactly this matter.
Although Senior Yicheng appeared untainted by worldly dust, in reality, had she also endured torture from tentacle monsters, with her entire body witnessing very terrifying things, becoming like this?
If so, that would be too tragic.
Lonis was somewhat worried about this, but Yicheng shook her head and said:
"Although General Caster's castle was terrifying, my body wasn't substantially affected."
"Eh?"
"Although my spirit was somewhat devastated, after releasing it in the Pleasure Device for a while, there were no aftereffects. I wear an eyepatch normally for other reasons. Because even before going to challenge the Trickster Demon Lord, I had already developed this habit."
"Th-then what was it... is it convenient to say?"
Lonis had a kind of curiosity in her heart, especially when facing girls, this desire became even more obvious.
"Mainly, it's to prevent my emotions from being disturbed too much by the scenes before my eyes."
"Eh?"
"Yes, let me give an example: when an ordinary person reads a book, they can only focus on one point, seeing about one line of text. But I can see not only that line of text, but also the pages above and below, the dust on the book cover, and even certain abnormally active bacteria."
"Ah?!!!!!"
"Suddenly accepting too many things affects my thinking and makes me unable to distinguish priorities. So I chose to cover my eyes. This way, I only need to see the most important things."
"Oh..."
Lonis swallowed deeply, not expecting Yicheng's ability to be so exaggerated.
Such an ability completely exceeded the limits of ordinary human imagination... so exaggerated that it wasn't a blessing but a burden.
So Lonis said admiringly:
"Senior Yicheng is really amazing."
"Amazing?"
"Yes..."
"I don't think so. After all, in my view, the inheritor of Flame Abyss is truly amazing."
"Eh?"
"Because, whether it's you or Elucia, both..."
Senior Yicheng seemed about to tell Lonis something very important.
But just at this moment,
from the hall came the voice of the black-hearted loli: "Aren't you done yet! I'm hungry, hurry up and prepare lunch!"
"Ah, is fried egg okay?"
"Hmph, it's passable. Quickly bring it to me, or I'll get angry!"
This scared Lonis so much she didn't dare continue asking, only saying: "Um, Senior Yicheng, what you were saying just now..."
"Yes, it seems this isn't a good time to discuss this matter. Let's study together again when we have another chance."
