Chapter 14: Breakfast
Even if I was kicked out by Elie Sauce again, I don't want to be cheeky enough to harass her again, do you have to cultivate your feelings gradually.
I couldn't sleep with the cute and seductive silver-haired little Lori Ellie-chan, so I had to spend the night alone in this strange town. I have to say, I've been flying with Nala for a day today, and I'm a little tired. I wanted to think about what to do tomorrow in bed, but the night underground was much quieter than in the wild, and I fell asleep soon after my head was on the pillow.

When I woke up the next day, it was already very bright outside, and it was the most comfortable night I had in a few days. There were no mosquito bites and chirping, and there were soft beds and pillows, and if it weren't for the circular Zerg buildings I saw outside the window when I woke up, I would have thought I was still living on Earth.
After a brief wash, and a bit of a personal problem, I entered the Divine Pattern. In the god pattern, Ellie-chan does not appear, probably still sleeping. I looked for her in the temple and decided to come back in the afternoon.
I was a little hungry and stretched out the door, trying to go downstairs and get something to eat.
Walking down the stairs to the living room on the first floor, I saw Nala facing me and Viona, who was sitting to her left, having breakfast, and Angel was there. She sat on the right with a fruit in her mouth, and Nala saw me first: "Good morning, Brother Noron." Come and have breakfast. This morning, my sister specially prepared black eggs and black chicken steak for you. β
Seeing me go downstairs, Viona put down her breakfast and brought out a cup, a grilled chicken cutlet, and a black egg from the kitchen. Viona put them on the table and said to me with a smile, "Good morning, Nolon. After more than a year of dealing with humans in the town, I also learned some common sense about humans. Humans seem to be more accustomed to eating boiled poultry eggs, dairy products and roasted meat in the morning. I don't make much cooked food, and I don't know if these are to your liking, and if there are any deficiencies, I have to point out Noron, and I will improve it next time. β
"Cooked food is hard to eat, I really don't know why you humans like it. I think it's still better to taste fruits, plants and bugs. Angel squinted at me, and at a glance she knew she had secretly tasted it. The mouthparts of the Angora Zerg cannot taste cooked food, although they can also fill their stomachs by eating cooked food, but the taste is the same as chewing wax, and only a few 'gifted' Zerg can taste the delicious taste of cooked food.
"No, no, no, Viona, you've done a good job of preparing a human breakfast for me, and I think this chicken steak and eggs must taste good." I'm still sitting in yesterday's chair, taking a knife and fork (the Zerg also use this to eat bugs) and preparing to try the breakfast that the Zerg specially cooked for me.
Black-haired chickens are a common domestic poultry in the Angolan underground empire, and black-haired eggs are also one of the popular foods of the Angolan Zerg. I looked at the dark yellow dry-grilled chicken steak and the pale black black egg in front of me, and decided to start with the chicken steak first.
I first pressed a corner with the fork in my left hand and slowly cut it with a knife, and the cut was a fragrant chicken with a red tinge in the white, which looked similar to the grilled chicken steak on the earth. A second later, my tongue tasted otherworldly cuisine for the first time.
Zerg doesn't use seasonings, so the flavor of this chicken steak is a bit light. The roasting heat is up, and there is no charring or pinching. However, the otherworldly chicken steak seems to be more advanced than the ordinary chicken steak on the earth, so this grilled black hair chicken steak is different from the chicken steak with various seasonings I have eaten on the earth.
I peeled off the boiled black egg again, and a taste that was more delicious than the ordinary eggs of the earth surrounded my taste buds, and I couldn't help but show an expression of enjoyment. I had tasted two cooked foods, and in Nala, Angel's curious, expectant look at Viona commented: "Very good, even if I cook a lot, I can't do it better than Viona in this situation." β
"Yes, I knew that even if I made cooked food that met the taste of humans, it would be difficult for my sister." Nala, who was cheering, was already an adult, but she still looked like a child.
Angel was a little eager to try it, and I guess she'd try to cook it later, and hopefully it wasn't the first time she'd used fire to cook food, or Viona's kitchen would have woed.
Viona didn't show a particularly happy look, but accepted my compliment with a smile: "Noron, I am relieved if you say so. It was also a coincidence that my cooked food was instructed by a human hoplite a year ago. That's when he tried my first flame cooking. According to him, it tasted much better than the first time he cooked it back then, but it still had to be practiced. Now he is fighting on the front line, and it will be half a month before he returns with the cavalry regiment. He made a pact with me that he would try my human food every time he came back. β
Thank you, unknown knight, for keeping my first otherworldly meal from being unforgettable!
The food was delicious, and I was a little hungry, so I quickly settled the breakfast, like Angel holding a glass of round fruit juice and tasting it on the side: "Angel, is your house close to here?" Why did you come so early? β
Angel took a slow sip of juice before explaining in a lazy tone: "I live on the street from the previous one, less than five minutes from here. I live alone, and I don't like to prepare three meals, so I always come here to eat, and Viona will prepare my portion. Although my house is a little smaller than Viona, with only two floors, you are welcome to come to my house to play. Of course, I smiled and agreed.
After breakfast, Nala went out with me. On the way to the cavalry regiment station, I looked curiously at the rotunda around me, and Nala excitedly told me about the history of the town.
"Our town is called 'Anrakka', which means 'comfortable and comfortable' in the Angolan Zerg language. The town is more than three hundred years old. Underground, there is a species of firelizard with a blue crested head called the blue-crowned salamander. They are not strong individually, and most LV10 professionals can beat it. However, blue-crowned salamanders are social creatures, and their smallest population has more than thirty animals.
More than 300 years ago, our ancestral town was affected by a mass migration of blue-crowned salamanders, and thousands of blue-crowned salamanders roared and destroyed their ancestral towns. Our ancestors left their homeland, traveled a long way, and after a lot of hardships, they finally found a land that had not been ravaged by the blue-crowned salamander, that is, our town. The first generation of ancestors explored and decided to rest and reproduce here. But 200 years ago, the fourth generation of ancestors discovered that the blue-crowned salamander had migrated to them. In order not to repeat the tragedy of a hundred years ago, every resident of Allaka is striving for self-improvement and cultivating to protect the town from being destroyed by the blue-crowned salamander tide.
Moreover, every year in our town, in order to reduce the number of blue-crowned salamanders, we hold a blue-crowned salamander hunting competition. Every LV10 professional can participate, and the top three outstanding professionals can receive generous rewards. β
PS: It's been uncomfortable for the past two days, only one shift today. From tomorrow onwards, there will be two updates per day, with 3,000 words per chapter.
