Ok... I admit that I may have gone a little bit overboard...
To be fair, there were a lot of different ingredients and the grill was so fun to play with that I ended up just cooking everything and munching on them as I cooked for myself and everyone else.
It got to the point that we got past the opening hours and the only people left in the restaurant were the staff mbers and us.
Everyone was pretty much lost in the food I made and it felt like the previous incident where everyone was all nervous and jittery from my confrontation with rina was just a distant mory.
At least everyone seed to have made up and they were more focused on just enjoying the food and not caring that we almost ca to blows just a few hours ago.
rina ca up to , her earlier arrogance nowhere to be found as she acted subservient to .
"Teacher, Teacher! What are you making now?" She asked, her eyes shining with anticipation.
"Since this thing has a steaming function, I’m trying to make stead egg custard right now."
"Wow!! As expected of Teacher! I never thought about using it like that!"
I lifted the cover to reveal several cups of the egg custard underneath it, all of them glistening golden and shining in the light.
The fragrant sll of the egg custards practically exploded out from underneath the cover and everyone was already drooling over it.
I was just about to pass the cups of egg custards out when I heard the distinct sound of the lift dinging.
That would have been normal but... This place is supposed to be closed so it was weird that anyone was coming here this late at night.
I turned to see who it was and the doors slid open, revealing two people inside the lift, one of them being a male and the other a female.
"I don’t know why we have to co all the way here instead of getting them to co to us instead."
"I told you already, cousin... They have specialised tools here that they would need to use to create the food. Without them it won’t taste the sa."
All of my girls tensed up and I sucked in a breath and held it as the two people in the lift floated out into the restaurant.
Both of them were wearing clothes that look really expensive and had similar colour palettes with purple and green being the primary colours.
The guy was wearing a suit with ruffles along the edges and a cloak thrown around his shoulder while the woman was wearing a tight fitting green dress with an open cleavage. A purple cloak was also resting on her shoulders that seed to float gracefully behind her.
The other restaurant staff who saw them imdiately bowed their heads and even rina quickly lowered hers while standing beside .
Of course, the only people here who continued to stare defiantly at the newcors were my girls with Mara glaring specifically at the male Noble.
Mara’s brother... Desmond Keydew... The guy who almost killed if Mara hadn’t stepped in to help ...
Fuck...
There was nowhere to hide and even if I did duck below the counter, my girls were already in full view and they would definitely be noticed.
I wondered if I was strong enough to fight a Psionic at this point but thinking about it... If we really had to co to blows, we technically have the advantage in numbers ironically...
The two people looked up and Desmond imdiately saw Mara and stopped, prompting the woman beside him to stop as well.
"What is it?" She asked.
He continued to stare at Mara, "Do you rember that sister of mine who ran away from ho?"
"Yes? Who wouldn’t know about her? Why are you bringing her up right now?"
"Because she’s sitting right over there," He pointed at Mara.
The girl turned to see Mara staring right back at her, still defiant and not looking at all worried that we were found.
The noble woman broke into a grin and brushed a few strands of her wavy auburn hair aside to float towards us, her purple stockings visible underneath her dress as it fluttered to the side.
She stopped in front of her, intentionally floating a little higher so that she was looking down at Mara.
"Well, well, well~ Funny to et you here, cousin~ I’m surprised you even dared to show yourself so close to the Inner Colonies~ For a fugitive like you, I would have thought you would be hiding in a far off distant corner in so wasteland within the Outer Colonies instead~ I suppose as a Noble, you couldn’t survive out in the wastelands, could you?"
Mara glared at her, "Cousin Eleanor... How nice to see you. Has the family found you a partner that you haven’t killed yet?"
That seed to be her sore spot because her face imdiately changed and she scowled at her, "You shut the fuck up. At least I can choose my partner! For soone powerless like you, you should just be happy that there’s people even willing to breed with you!"
"Compared to you who no one wants to breed with? I don’t know if your fate is worse than mine though."
She raised her hand and I felt the area around us shake noticeably.
"Have you forgotten who you are talking to, cousin Mara? Do you want to remind you?"
Mara rose out from her own seat to float up into the air, her hands reaching out to her sides and the place trembled even more.
"Do not think that I have not improved myself over all these years, cousin..."
Wait... Are we really going to fight?
Mara’s cousin sneered at her, "Do you actually think that you can beat , cousin? Aren’t you supposed to be a smart one?"
"Oh, I am well aware of my own shortcomings. I could definitely beat that stupid brother of mine behind you but you are definitely stronger than in pure Psionic combat."
"Then why don’t you stop this little farce and co ho to be the good little breeding sow that you are?"
Mara tilted her chin at her, "I might not be able to beat you... But she can."
My Psionic lover then gestured towards , prompting both her brother and cousin to swivel their heads to look at .
Wait, Mara?! Why?! What am I supposed to do?! Am I supposed to reveal that I’m a Psionic here?!
I was still panicking until one of the cups of egg custards was lifted up into the air and floated in front of Mara.
"What is this?" Mara’s cousin asked, looking at Mara suspiciously.
Mara gestured to the egg custard in front of her, "This may be surprising to you, but this is made by the one I love with all my heart and who I would happily be a breeding sow for. I dare you to taste this and retain your composure."
Eh?! Wait... Was that what you an by defeating them? Actually... Are you even sure about this, Mara?! What if they want to take away and keep as so kind of slave because they think my cooking is too good to leave alone?!
Actually... Is my cooking even good enough to satisfy a noble?!
Oh wait... It’s easy to forget but... Mara is a noble... And she’ll gladly beg for seconds so... I take back what I said.
Mara’s cousin narrowed her eyes at the cup of custard, "What is this? Are you trying to trick us?"
"No tricks. Her food is enough to make lose my mind so I want to see if you, who is supposed to be one of the strongest telekinetic in our family, is able to withstand the absolute mind blowing taste of this?"
The brother floated beside her, "Don’t listen to her cousin! Why are we even entertaining sothing so stupid?! Just take her and we can bring him back to my father!"
I was fully expecting the cousin to do just that when she reached her hand forward and the cup of egg custard shot over to her before a spoon was also lifted up into the air to fly over to her.
She gave it a sniff before turning towards , "Are you the one who made this?"
I wasn’t expecting her to address so it took a mont to respond, "Eh? Ah... Yes I am."
She looked back at the egg custard and the spoon slowly floated down to scoop up so of the egg custard before it flew over to her mouth.
Without hesitation, she opened her mouth slightly and allowed the spoon to float the rest of the way to deposit the egg custard inside her mouth.
As soon as she did that, her body froze up and she fell from the air to land on her feet.
The brother saw this and imdiately let out a roar at , "What have you done to her?! I’ll kill yo--"
He didn’t even get to finish his words before the cousin waved her hand and the poor guy was suddenly slamd into the ground.
Ok... What the heck is going on now?!
