After Clara and I got off at the bus stop that was our destination, I was greeted by soone I knew who was sitting quietly on one of the bus stop chairs.
With her elegant silver hair and fiery red pupils, I had expected Momoka to do sothing like this after I ended the video call from Elysia’s smartphone.
The cool morning breeze drew her calm gaze to .
Clara and I imdiately headed to the empty seat next to Momoka.
Crack...
Poomm...
While waiting for Momoka to say sothing to , I taught Clara how to survive on Earth by eating food.
"Listen carefully, Clara, you have to eat... after possessing the new body vessel that I worked so hard to obtain. Unlike you, who possessed Chizuru’s body, which provided a regular supply of food... you have to do the sa, so that your stomach doesn’t feel starve.
The rice ball in my hand was now opened from its plastic wrapper, leaving seaweed covering all the warm rice.
"Look at this... this is how to eat warm rice ball."
Choomp...
Choommmp...
I imdiately bit the rice ball in my hand.
Kruunnyyukkk...
The sound of Clara’s hungry stomach was heard again.
After knowing how to eat rice ball properly, Clara imdiately opened the plastic wrapper of rice ball she had chosen to eat.
"M-Master Weiss, do I have to eat every day, so my stomach won’t hurt like this?" Clara asked before taking a bite of the rice ball that was already in her hand.
"Yup, that’s a must-do every day. Haven’t you ever eaten while you were a Goddess?" I replied, savoring the uniquely flavored rice ball in my mouth.
The savory, salty flavor of this rice ball seaweed imdiately filled my mouth. The distinct saltiness, unlike any other seaweed, convinced this was seaweed from another world.
I also read the rice ball packaging and saw so ingredients that ca from another world.
"Not too bad for seaweed from another world. Could this be the true taste of seaweed... without the ocean pollution from chemical waste and plastic?" I murmured, savoring the flavor of the seaweed, which tasted just right to .
"The rice isn’t as sweet as rice on Earth, but that’s not a big deal. Rice is rice... and it’s a food that anyone would accept, even for rice from another world!" I continued to mutter after tasting the deliciousness of the otherworldly food.
Chomp...
Choommp...
I, who was enjoying food to fill my hunger, suddenly received a cynical look from Momoka. A sharp glance from her red pupils was directed at the rice ball that I was eating.
Momoka still angry with and sat quietly without saying a word to .
While enjoying the warm rice ball until half of it was left, I gave half of the rice ball that I had eaten to Momoka.
"Do you want this too, Momoka?" I asked, handing her my bitten rice ball.
"Humph!" Momoka said in an annoyed tone, grabbing the rice ball I had already eaten half of.
Chomp...
Chomp...
With a sulky expression on her face, Momoka tried not to savor the rice ball I had bitten. But, her succubus instincts couldn’t lie and savor it happily.
She, who was angry with , turned back to normal after receiving special treatnt like this.
I opened the second rice ball package and looked at the ingredients.
"Rice ball from another world again, huh?"
"The previous rice ball tasted good, I hope, I don’t get a strange rice ball taste," I muttered as I opened the package of my second rice ball.
Chomp...
The mont I bit into the rice ball that used ingredients from another world, my tongue felt hot as if I had brewed the broth of hell ran that is famous for its spiciness.
Chompp...
My mouth was imdiately filled with the spicy taste of the otherworldly seaweed.
This stimulating, spicy pleasure is too delicious to be tasted just once.
"Oh, this is delicious," I muttered as I looked at my bite mark.
The seaweed that should be dark green-blackish in color also has a green-reddish mixture that shows the level of spiciness of the seaweed that I am eating.
I took out my smartphone and turned on the power to take a picture of this rice ball.
At the mont my hand was turning on the power of my smartphone, it made Momoka glance at with a cynical look in her eyes.
"Oh my older brother, you deliberately turned off your smartphone so I couldn’t contact you, didn’t you?" Momoka said with a sarcastic look in her eyes, wanting to scold .
"Well, if I don’t do that. I’ll be imrsed in a video call session that will explain Clara’s origins," I replied in response to Momoka’s question.
Brrrttt...
Zzrrrtt...
My smartphone, which had just been turned on after the power cut out, received various notifications from Momoka like phone calls and video calls from Momoka, who lined up on my still-locked smartphone screen.
"Are you curious about Clara’s origins, Momoka?" I asked while clearing the notifications on my smartphone screen.
Swiipp...
Swiipp...
With a small touch of my finger pressing the button on my smartphone screen, I cleared the notifications that I had missed after my smartphone was turned off.
"Of course, I’m very curious about Clara’s origins. I an... who wouldn’t be curious about Clara’s race when she looks like this?" Momoka replied, glancing at Clara, who was happily enjoying the rice ball in her mouth.
"Umm... I-Is there sothing wrong with , Momoka?" Clara said, after realizing she had beco Momoka’s main concern.
Flap...
Flap...
The flapping of Valkyrie Clara’s wings also increased Momoka’s curiosity about the race that Clara belonged to.
"To be honest, this has to do with one of the sages from another world who’s conducting taboo research. Would you like to hear more about this information?" I asked in a low voice, paying attention to my surroundings.
"I can only give you a few keywords about this."
"Creating life existence..."
"DNA manipulation of another race..."
"Homunculus research..."
"That should give you an idea of what this is all about, Momoka," I continued after making sure it was safe for to say this sensitive thing.
Glup...
Momoka swallowed her saliva and felt guilty after listening this.
"Y-You an... Clara is a Homunculus created from various races?" Momoka whispered to confirm what I said.
Nod...
I answered her by nodding my head.
There’s no point hiding this from Momoka, who’s always curious about everything.
By revealing Clara’s identity as a new race born from taboo research, it will make Momoka cautious and control her curiosity, for not leaked out this secret.
"I felt guilty after knowing that, and why did you tell ? Even though you knew it was a big secret."
"Well, you forced to reveal this big secret, Momoka."
"Ugh, what can I do? I’m just curious.... By the way, how did you know that the new vessel Clara is possessing cos from taboo research being conducted by one of the sages from another world?"
"Because I stole Clara directly from him."
"Huh?!"
Momoka looked shocked by this, and she didn’t believe the words I said at all.
"Well, I found a secret room that was being used by one of these other sages and happened to peek into the secret that he was doing who wanted to bring his long-dead family mbers back to life by rebirthing them using Homunculus bodies," in a low tone, I gave another big secret to Momoka, who was still curious about this.
"If I were to die suddenly... You would know why, Momoka," I continued, ending the conversation with a dark joke.
"Huh?!" HAAAHH!!"
Momoka seed to take my dark joke well and kept an eye on her surroundings.
"Y-You’re not joking about this, are you?!" whispered Momoka, who now seed more cautious.
"Why should I joke about this?"
I imdiately glanced at Clara, who was still sitting quietly beside and eating her third rice ball greedily.
"Do you think I’m joking after giving Clara all the characteristics of other races?" I said, pointing at Clara.
"M-Master Weiss? Sothing wrong?"
Thanks to pointing it out, Clara tilted her head as if trying to understand what I was doing.
"It’s okay, Clara. I just wanted to tell you to finish all these rice ball quietly like an elegant maid," I replied, giving her a classic excuse.
"T-Thank you very much, Master Weiss. I will finish the rice ball that Master Weiss has given to !" Clara replied with an awkward tone and force a wide smile on her face.
Clara imdiately finished eating the rice ball she was holding in her hand.
Chomp...
Chomp...
While Clara was enjoying her food, Momoka noticed several characteristics of other races on Clara’s body.
"Black wings like the Valkyrie race..."
"Horns like the Oni race..."
"Long ears like the Elf race..."
"Then a tail like the Succubus race, and it is well hidden..." muttered Momoka, who seed to be using a special magic spell to analyze Clara’s body.
As for the Succubus’ tail, I only found out about it after Momoka said it.
"Did you understand now?" I said as I ate the spicy rice ball still in my hand.
Chomp...
Chomp...
"I don’t want to believe this..."
"However, after seeing my older brother’s reckless actions lately."
"I can only believe in this madness."
Chomp...
Chomp...
My mouth, which was filled with spicy seaweed, received a gentle sarcasm from Momoka.
"Umm, Weiss..." Just as I was about to devour the remaining half of the spicy rice ball, my hand was imdiately grabbed by Momoka, who wanted to get the rest of my rice ball.
"This is quite spicy, look at the bright red color of the seaweed..."
"It’s okay, I wanted to know how much spice I can tolerate in the food you like."
"I won’t be responsible if it’s too spicy, you know."
Reluctantly, I gave her the rice ball that I had already eaten half of.
Momoka accepted the spicy rice ball and tried to eat it, but her eyelids suddenly look sore, and tears started to flow.
"Sob!! What kind of rice ball is this?" Momoka said as tears started to flow.
"I already told you, it was spicy enough to eat," I replied as I took the spicy rice ball from her hand and eat it all up.
"What kind of human are you? How could you eat such spicy food?"
"Well, if you are used to eating sothing spicy, then you will beco immune to the taste of spicy food too."
"Ugh, I doubt that."
After finishing all the rice ball, I gave Clara so fresh water and explained how to open the bottle cap.
I felt like I was teaching a baby rather than a fallen Goddess.
