Act 38.Afternoon Tea Party

Grantia, of course, doesn't know anything about what happened behind the scenes, and she is now being invited by Alyssa to visit the other party's bedroom.

Compared to the civilian dormitory where Grantia lived, Alyssa's house was much more luxurious, and the overall decoration of the room was several grades higher than that of Grantia.

Alyssa also lives alone, and Grandia doesn't ask much about the operation of it, after all, she is a big nobleman who has a close relationship with the royal family, and there seems to be no doubt about having these privileges.

"You may be seated. ”

After Alyssa beckoned Grantia to sit down, she went to the other room and didn't know what to do.

It was only at this time that Grantia had the opportunity to observe her surroundings properly.

She was also a noble daughter in Bunajien, and she had seen many things that only the aristocratic class had access to since she was a child, but at this time, Grantia was still amazed by the details in this room.

Not to mention the high-grade mahogany that paves the floor, let's simply say that the chair that Grandia is sitting on now is obviously from the pine forests of the north, which not only costs a lot of money, but also has to have a way to buy it, and the various items on the desk, although they are inconspicuous at first glance, but they exude a low-key and exquisite sense of design, which must also be the work of everyone.

Even the most mundane curtains, whose fabrics come from the distant Republic of Charandel, are a specialty of the El people.

After coming to Christine, Grantia has realized how barren Bunagin was where she was originally located, and after coming to this room, she has once again refreshed her understanding.

It turns out that the gap between people and people can be so big!

Grantia became cautious, fearing that if she accidentally broke some priceless vase, she would have to follow Miss Alyssa as a servant to pay off her debts.

But from the room where Alyssa was, there was a tinkling sound from time to time, which made Grantia a little curious.

She thought for a moment, then finally stood up and poked her head into the place.

"It's actually a kitchen ??"

Grandia saw the room and fell into even greater surprise.

Christine's dormitory does not have a kitchen, on the one hand, there are not many young masters and ladies from rich families who can cook, and the food in the cafeteria is not bad, so most students do not have this need, and on the other hand, it is for safety reasons.

Therefore, in the general dormitory, there is only one bedroom, a washing room, and at most a living room that is not divided.

It's the first time Grantia has seen a kitchen here.

And...... The supporting facilities inside seem to be quite complete?

She saw the latest ovens, magicians made with new technology, and refrigerators that could store food on hot summer days, things that Grantia had only seen in books.

Of course, those neatly arranged kitchen utensils with

But the most surprising thing for Grandia was Alyssa, who was busy in it.

This real aristocratic daughter is actually preparing food at this time?

Alyssa looked skilful as she lifted the steaming kettle from the stove into a delicate white porcelain teapot.

On the other hand, the oven has done its job, opening as if it were conscious, and from it, a fragrant cake is wafting out and decorated with the cream and fruit that flies out of the refrigerator.

"Just wait a little longer. ”

Alyssa naturally noticed Grandia peeking at her, she didn't turn her head, she just said so lightly, but made Grandia obediently return to her seat, as if she had unquestionable authority.

Then, after waiting less than a quarter of an hour, Alyssa came out of the kitchen.

The teapot and fruitcake around her also slowly landed on the small round table in front of Grantia.

"It's just these freshly made things, and the hospitality is not good. ”

Alyssa sat down in front of Grantia as well, lifted the teapot with the mage's hand, and poured two cups of black tea.

"I always feel ...... Why, a little surprised?"

Grantia held back for a long time before she said such a thing, which made Alyssa smile.

Originally, she thought that the other party was going to discuss the magic competition with her, but it seemed that Grantia was wrong.

"Let's take a bite of cake, I'm pretty confident in my cooking. ”

Alyssa said, pushing the cake in front of her in front of Grantia's eyes.

"Hmm. ”

At this time, there is no need to worry about any untimely fat problems, Grandia gently scoops off the corner of the cake with a spoon and puts it in her mouth.

"Hmm...... Hmm!!"

The delicate cream spreads on the tip of the tongue, combined with the freshness of the fruit, bringing a rather strong impact, and then, the touch of the soft cake deepens this layer of impact, making it endless, and the most surprising thing for Grandia is the slightly bitter cocoa contained in the cake, which does not affect the taste, but neutralizes the original sweetness, making the taste more layered, echoing each other, unforgettable.

"Delicious!"

At one point, Grantia even had the idea that this was the best cake she had ever tasted.

"With black tea, it will be even more delicious. ”

Following Alyssa's advice, Grantia also took a sip of black tea.

The mellow and rich black tea effectively relieved the sweetness of the cake, and the fragrance wrapped around her lips and teeth and down her throat, making Grantia's eyes widen.

"Mmmm!!mmmm

She was speechless, and it was the first time she had tasted it since she came to study at Christine.

"I'm still quite interested in cooking, using my own hands to turn ordinary ingredients into delicacies, don't you think this process is a bit similar to magic?"

Alyssa said that at this time, she no longer had the original coldness and respectful aura, just like an ordinary girl who loves cooking.

"Actually, my grandmother brought me this interest, when I was young, what I looked forward to the most was to meet my grandmother and eat all kinds of special dishes made by her. ”

"Sounds so good. ”

Grandia couldn't help but imagine such a picture just by listening to the other party's description.

The aristocracy was strictly constrained from an early age, whether it was Grantia in a border town or Alyssa who grew up in the royal capital.

As a result, they are born with a stronger desire for freedom, for trying something with their own hands.

Suddenly, Grantia felt that the girl opposite was actually no different from herself.
