It was already daylight, and Jessica still felt all kinds of pain on her body. The whole person couldn't lift his energy, and just wanted to lie lazily on the counter and not move.
But this is unrealistic, Jessica still has hospitality work to do during the day, and since she has already taken over the work, she must complete it well. What's more, Jessica overdrew this year's salary in order to purchase props for making snacks, and in the face of President Makarov's unreserved trust, Jessica is naturally grateful, and has a sense of responsibility for the work entrusted by Makarov
"Jessica~~ a tiramisu, please." Kana, dressed in her usual beige plaid dress, greeted Jessica.
"Good Lat, one tiramisu."
By the way, Makarov decided to try Jessica's dim sum at half price in the guild, and if it was popular, it would be officially added to the guild's order.
It seems that it has been a little longer since Fuelusa and Kana, who were carrying snacks, have been showing up at the guild, and for Jessica, this has already achieved its goal.
"Kana, Tiramisu is here." After a while, Jessica came out of the room with a tray in her hand, and on top of it was Jessica's refrigerated tiramisu and a glass of juice that had been refrigerated last night.
Because it takes time to make dim sum, except for special varieties, they are usually made overnight in advance, and the next day when customers order, they take out the whole product from the refrigeration and cut it and send it to them.
In particular, in order not to spoil the shape of cake pastries, pastry chefs generally do not use knives, but use fishing lines to cut them.
Therefore, Jessica was physically tired and mentally poor, not only after Elusa's special training, but also after returning to the guild, she made a batch of snacks while the kitchen was empty.
If it is placed in the daytime, there is a chef from the guild in the kitchen, and the small space cannot handle both tasks.
In addition, the kitchen with a lot of oil smoke and various spices is not a good place to make dim sum at all, so I really want a separate dim sum room.
Jessica looked forward to it from the bottom of her heart.
"Let's let, borrow" Jessica avoided the crowd while being careful not to let the full juice spill.
"Jessica !!"
There was a loud roar from Jessica's back, and the accompanying sense of oppression.
"Natsu? Don't come here at this time! Jessica turned her head and saw a red figure lunging at him with a fist raised.
"I must defeat you today, enlightenment!" Natsu rushed at him like a bull, not caring if it was a sneak attack or not.
No, in Natsu's mind, he had already warned Jessica in advance, and he didn't even think about whether Jessica was ready or not.
Jessica's current situation is not ideal, not to mention that the cutlery in his hand makes it impossible for him to respond immediately, but also to say that the muscle pain and fatigue left over from yesterday's special training also made Jessica unable to fight Natsu.
But Natsu still rushed straight like a mad bull, and if he didn't dodge it, he would be hit by Natsu's punch. The best result was also that the two bumped into each other and fell a few laps.
In any case, this tiramisu in Jessica's hand can't be saved, only this point cannot be forgiven. Wasting food is unforgivable, not to mention that Jessica made it yesterday after staying up all night with soreness.
Keep your eyes open as wide as you can at Natsu, and get out of the way before he gets close. At the very least, put down what you have in your hand first.
Ale? Jessica seemed to see something strange and couldn't help but be stunned.
"Ahh In a moment's stunning, Natsu had already run to Jessica's side, and it was too late to dodge.
There is no time for the current situation, and Jessica can't think about it, so she can only act subconsciously according to the feeling that just came out.
The left foot took a step out, and then held the tray and used the left foot as the fulcrum, and the whole person disappeared from its original position in a circle. But he relied on this beautiful maneuver to move behind Natsu.
Natsu, who suddenly lost Jessica's figure in sight, didn't react, and couldn't help but staggered and continued to rush forward a few steps.
Jessica, who was in danger of being sudden, put the plate on the table next to her, because she had just spilled a little juice from the cup when she had just avoided it drastically. Thankfully, the tiramisu was safe and there was no juice spilled.
"Don't you rush over suddenly, don't you see me working? Natsu! Jessica, freeing her hands, faced Natsu head-on.
"Don't be verbose, let's have another battle with me. Right now! No, Natsu couldn't hear what Jessica was saying, or that his simple thinking circuit didn't give him a second option.
Natsu lunged at Jessica again, more reckless than imposing.
Here it is again, and the moment Natsu launches the offensive, Jessica once again 'sees' the unbelievable.
On Natsu's body, there was a serious shift in the center of gravity due to running, and it was all focused on the fists. So Natsu's fists are incredibly powerful, but the corresponding steering is completely inflexible. Just now, Jessica saw the vector direction of this and avoided Natsu with the attitude of giving it a try.
Presumably Elusa saw the same thing in me last night as Natsu, Jessica thought. so
Jessica's current tired condition is not suitable for the vigorous Natsu to perform a hard exertion that is very beneficial to Natsu, and she can only learn the way Elusa did last night - throwing skills!
Yes, instead of colliding with the enemy, you can catch the opponent's center of gravity and throw it out after seeing the attack. It's especially good for dealing with people like Natsu.
Jessica tried her best to suppress the uneasiness and excitement of applying this unfamiliar fighting style for the first time, and calmly watched Natsu's movements.
"Don't dodge, watch the punch." Natsu, who didn't learn his lesson at all, or did he just box, or did he learn a lesson, so he told Jessica not to dodge? Who will listen to you?
Without dodging, without dodging, Jessica aimed at Natsu's fist and held out her hands. But instead of racking your fists, you need to avoid the back and clamp your fragile wrists.
Doing this is already half the battle, and if it weren't for Jessica's years of training, she might not have had this vision and accuracy.
"Ahhhh Directly threw Natsu out and slid on the ground for some distance.
"Hurt, hurt, hurt" Although Natsu stood up while shouting pain, he didn't seem to be hurt much, in addition to his own sturdy body being a reason, Jessica's failure to grasp the timing and movement to give the most damage is also the reason.
It seems that Natsu is a good practice object, the simple movements are very suitable for catching, the strong body is not afraid of injury, and there is also the will to fight.
"Ahhhh
"Come on, Natsu, I'll have fun with you today."
Maybe this is a God-given opportunity for Jessica, not only to observe Natsu to more intuitively understand the center of gravity, but also to practice throwing skills by the way.
