Chapter 34: Rumors(2)
This time inside the dining hall, he had taken a seat much closer to Fira, who is the cook here, even when it was on the other end of the dining hall.
Arthur started eating the food. He just took a bite of the meat, and the taste buds in his mouth felt a sensation they had never felt before. The food was even more delicious than before. He couldn’t understand how it could be even more delicious than before.
He could feel the gaze of Fira, who was watching him from a distance of only a few meters away.
He quickly finished the food because of how delicious it was. A humming sound could be heard from his mouth due to the food cooked by Fira, who had put much more effort into it this time.
After finishing the meal, he decided to show his appreciation to her once again in the form of a thank you, especially when he had noticed that she clearly had put much more effort in this time.
But before he could even decide to stand up from his seat, he heard a sweet voice from behind.
"Um, ah, Arthur—" Fira froze in between as she was quite nervous to say what she wanted to say. She had prepared a special dish for him. While she had followed the menu for cooking for everyone else, that didn’t mean she couldn’t cook using her own ingredients.
There were plenty of ingredients in the kitchen as she cooked for both the elves and the slaves. The ingredients used for making food for elves are normally rank 1, so she could make some better dishes easily, which would not just taste better but would have special effects too.
She isn’t a member of the Gourmet Guild for nothing.
She knew men usually liked sweet things, so she had prepared something special for him. But she was too embarrassed to mention it, as it would look like she was hitting on him.
Which she didn’t mind, but since this morning’s breakfast she had noticed the other elves were not quite friendly to her.
She had explained to at least 4 elves that it was just an accident that he held her hands, nothing more, but no one seemed to believe her.
Arthur, hearing her words, noticed she seemed too nervous, so he tried to calm her.
"You don’t have to be nervous; take your time and say what you want. I am not going to say anything."
He paused for a second and continued.
"And just so you know, the food you made today was absolutely amazing."
Fira, hearing his words, realized what he was trying to do.
She once again felt ashamed of how, even when she was a woman, she had acted like this in front of a man.
’Arrggh, I am such a lost cause.’
Still, she felt her heart at peace hearing his caring words.
She knew that while he was being nice to her, deep inside, he must be thinking she was a loser for acting this way, not just once but twice, as no normal woman acts such a way in front of men.
Still, his words made her calm as she now gathered her remaining courage and continued.
"I had made something special for you. Would you like to try it?"
She wasn’t sure he would even accept it or not, because whichever way someone looked at it, it looked like she was hitting on him using her cooking skills.
But she just wanted him to try her food. She liked the innocent reactions he would give her after eating her cooking.
She already knew there were so many elves who had their eyes on him. She wouldn’t like to take part in that chaos, even when he really was very handsome.
Seeing his long, flowing silver hair, his crystal-clear amethyst eyes, and his attractive face, it really was something worth looking at for hours. While she wasn’t confident enough to compete, she did appreciate his good looks.
’So hot.’
She had prepared herself to hear his rejection, as if there was no way he would accept it.
However, contrary to her beliefs, right after hearing her words, he quickly agreed to them with strong approval.
’Something special!’
He didn’t know what that was, but based on how good her food tasted, it would surely be a banger too.
’I’m excited to see what she would give me.’
He also felt very grateful for her taking her time to prepare something for him and him alone.
He felt quite special, as no one had ever done anything like that for him.
"Please, I would love to try it."
Fira didn’t even properly realize what he said while having thoughts in her mind.
’Just as I expected, he doesn’t—’
Realizing the meaning of his words, she stopped her thoughts as she was really shocked.
’Does he like me?’
She was not sure, but he really had been too nice to her. She didn’t know why that was, but it did make her think of the possibility that he liked her.
She didn’t try to think about this right now, as she knew she wouldn’t be able to keep a straight face while thinking about those things.
"I will come back in a minute."
Arthur waited for her in his seat for her to come back, and only after a minute, she came back with a fancy plate that looked much nicer than the one he usually ate from, and it was covered with a silver cloche.
Arthur, looking at her bringing the dish with a proud look on her face, was very excited to see what she had prepared for him.
She put the thing in front of Arthur and opened it.
Arthur looked at the dish in front of him, and from the looks of it, it was pudding, which could be easily found on his Earth.
While he did come to find that this planet was similar to Earth and only humans lived on it before the elves had taken over and this world had a reverse gender morality. But he didn’t know the similarity would be this strong.
It surprised him a little.
