Chapter 360
“......”
“......”
“...Why are you both staring at me like that?”
I asked, spoon still in my mouth, as Claire stared at me like she was trying to drill a hole through my head, and Alice rested her chin in her hand, watching me with an oddly serious expression. The two of them—very unusually—glanced at each other and locked eyes.
Then they turned to face me again and said,
“That expression—you looked really familiar just now.”
Alice spoke for the both of them, as if she were their representative.
What kind of expression—? Well, I knew exactly what kind of face I’d made just now.
My expression always softens when I eat something sweet.
I don’t know if it was the same when I was a guy, but ever since I came to the Azernan Empire, my face would go slack with happiness whenever I ate sweet things.
I couldn’t say why. Maybe because sweets in that world had far less variety? Now that I thought about it, food drenched in sugar wasn’t exactly common over there.
And this kind of variety in flavors—especially ice cream like this—just didn’t exist over there at all.
