Section C Chapter 15: Matcha Cake (Lusha)

Pinching the dough, Lusha felt the time pass incomparably slowly. Looking at her sister and Anusen beside her, Lusa lowered her head again to meet Minia's eyes.

Dango was so excited for some reason, she kept licking the snow eagle gloves and let out a cheerful cry.

"Hey...... Why haven't you come yet?" a bored Lucina picked up a cookie again, chewing it on a clatter. After eating another milk cookie, she vaguely asked, "What time is it, uncle?"

"It's a quarter past eighteen. Anusen's voice was a little worried: "Edes promised to tell us at half past five in the afternoon how things were handled during the day. He's been late for a long time. ”

"Maybe he forgot and won't come?" Lucina exclaimed in disappointment, "It's been forty-five minutes, it's no show, right?"

"He won't forget. The knight was confident: "It must be because something important has delayed." You know, there's so much going on today. ”

"Speaking of which, the mad dog is gone. Tapping her elbow on the tabletop, Lucina threw the biscuit into the air and caught it directly with her mouth: "It took forty minutes to go to the toilet and didn't come back, I guess it's constipation, right?"

"Or maybe I'm wandering around somewhere. Leave him alone. The knight frowned: "That man does whatever he wants, very casually." ”

"That's enough time for me to have dinner......" my sister yawned, "yes...... Speaking of which, we'll have to get someone to bring dinner over after sending Edus off in a moment. ”

"Huh, haven't you been eating?" the knight looked at Lucina helplessly, "After eating so much, you can still swallow dinner?"

"It's just a snack, not a meal. My sister knocked proudly on the table in front of her: "There will be no conflict." ”

Looking at her sister, who kept stuffing cookies and cakes into her mouth, Anusen sighed: "You've emptied all four baskets...... It's an Aya, but is it okay to eat so much?"

"No problem, no problem. Lucina patted her chest confidently: "Actually, I'm already very restrained, otherwise if I had eaten it the way I ate it at yesterday's dinner, I would definitely be able to eat them." ”

It's true...... Lusa remembered that her father, who was overwhelmed by the cost of food, always begged Lucina to eat less.

"What did you do at dinner?" asked Anusen, curious.

"My sister ate about fifty servings of food. Lusha raised her head and raised her hood slightly to increase her vision, "And many of them are the most precious vegetables in the Permafrost." That meal was quite expensive. ”

"Fifty ......," Anusen's throat seemed to be choked.

"That Brea butler almost scared my eyes off! Then again, Mace was very generous, and worried that I didn't have a good meal. Looking at the knight's expression, Lucina laughed out loud, poured ice juice into her cup and drank it dry: "Do you want Lusa too?"

"Hmm. Lusha nodded, looking at the rising liquid in her glass.

"Hmm...... Shall I see what more cake I can eat?" patted Lusa's head, and her sister excitedly rummaged through the basket in front of her. Then her face suddenly became extremely depressed: "Woo...... I didn't even see it just now - why is there so much disgusting cake at the bottom of this basket?"

"What's wrong?" said Anusen, who had just eaten a salty cracker, looking to the side.

"Look. With a bitter face, Lucina took a piece of cake from the bottom of the basket and threw it at the Templars.

Catching the cake, Anusen looked at it at the oil lamp for a long time: "It doesn't seem like a problem, right?"

"It's a big problem. Lucina pushed away the terrible basket: "Look closely, what a thick layer of meat floss!"

"Okay, got it. The knight put down the cake: "Aya doesn't eat meat, I didn't react at once." ”

"Won't you eat that too?" Lucina looked at the knight hopefully.

"Don't eat. Anusen simply vetoed it and put it back in the basket: "I'll leave it to the mad dog later...... He definitely liked this bite. ”

"What kind of meat floss to add to the cake? What a ......," Lucina was indignant.

"Sister, help me get a piece of vanilla cake. Looking at the dumplings that seemed to be craving for cake, Lusa pulled the corner of her sister's clothes.

"Wow...... I'll look for it. Lucina kept turning her head back and forth at the baskets of cakes and cookies: "Vanilla, vanilla...... I'll see...... It's the green color, isn't it?"

"Hmm. Lusha held the cup in both hands and took a sip of ice juice: it was so cold.

"Give. This should be. The knight took a piece of green cake from the basket beside him and handed it to Lucina.

"It's matcha's, uncle. Lucina snorted and laughed, "I don't blame you, after all, the colors are very similar." ”

"Ah, that's it......" Anusen was a little embarrassed as she tried to put the cake back.

"Give me that. Lucina snatched the cake from the knight's hand, picked out another pale green one from the basket and gave it to Lusa: "Ah...... Don't you really want some cake, uncle?"

"Forget it, I'll just eat some cookies. Anusen shook her head helplessly.

"It's not that sweet anymore, isn't it? I didn't bake it. Lucina continued to encourage her work: "Try it, show the courage of the Templars!"

"What does this have to do with the Templars?" Anusen said heavily, staring at the cake, "I didn't want to say it, but it seems that I can't say it...... Listen, I heard you tell your butler to put more sugar and honey. So I'm definitely not going to touch these cakes. ”

"Haha...... You hear me. Lucina touched her forehead embarrassedly: "That...... You see, I didn't tell him to make the cookies sweeter. ”

"That's because he didn't say he wanted to bring cookies. The door opened silently, and Cereya stepped into the trio like a ghost.

Lucina was obviously taken aback, but immediately reacted, shouting dissatisfiedly: "Can you stop scaring people so much?

"Yes. Ceresya nodded innocently: "Besides, why did I scare you?"

"I didn't hear any footsteps or doors opening!" Lucina jumped up from her chair, "It wasn't intentional?"

"That only means that my stealth skills are good and your alertness is poor. Ceresya shrugged her shoulders and laughed, "Don't talk about that, guess what I just did?"

"I'm constipated, what can I do?" Lucina glared at him viciously.

"Cut, no imagination at all. Seresa glared back at Lucina with disdain: "Because of a whim on the way to the bathroom, I went to the bachelor's room to investigate a little. And guess what I found again?"

"If I can guess, what else do you want you to do?! Forget it, I'd better eat the cake. Lucina sat back in her seat impatiently and picked up a cream cake.

However, the cake was quickly snatched up by a mad dog and bitten down. Looking at Lucina, who was unresponsive, Seresia laughed and announced his discovery, "Don't sell it - I found traces of poison in the laboratory in the bachelor's room." ”
