Chapter 14: Legendary Delicacies (Part II)

Is this really just an illusion of oneself?

Feeling the emptiness in his nose, Mino looked around and felt a sense of loss rise in his heart. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Sure enough, it would be too foul to have such a delicacy that could capture people just by smelling, if it really existed.

Recognizing the unreal and the real, Mino rubbed his nose and laughed softly at his previous gaffe, shaking his head as he returned to Valya's house.

"Now, Mino, what happened to you just now, you're already home, but you still have to turn around and go out, so that your mother thinks that Valya didn't bring you. ”

As soon as he stood at the door, before the hand reaching for the knocker could touch the metallic texture, the door that had been half-hidden by the wind was suddenly opened from the inside, revealing a pretty face that was half angry and half complaining.

Valya, who was already a little unhappy because of Mino's delay, opened the door and found that Mino was still hesitating at the door and didn't know what she was thinking, the girl was immediately annoyed, muttering angrily:

"Mino, you big idiot, do you know how much work your mother wastes making Yadai cake once, and you are still hesitating here, is it so difficult for you to eat delicious Yadai cake?

"It's hard for Valya to ...... It was not easy for my mother to agree to make Yadai cake, but Mino actually ...... Actually...... , Mino hates it to death!"

"That...... I'm sorry, Valya, I didn't mean to. Seeing that Valya's anger was getting stronger and stronger, and her eyes gradually misted with the accumulation of grievances, knowing that Valya was already on the verge of outburst, and Mino, who had done something really impolite before, immediately apologized, and at the same time quickly explained the reason why she recklessly made such a faux pas, "It's just that wonderful rich aroma just now, I smelled it clearly, but it suddenly disappeared............"

Due to the abrupt disappearance of the scent before, and the question of the existence of the scent, Mino's explanation was quite inconsistent and confusing, so that Valya could hear the obvious mistakes.

And Valya's increasingly angry and aggrieved look undoubtedly aggravated Mino's already nervous and flustered thinking, so that in the end, even he himself went from being unable to express himself in words for a while, and even his own head became confused.

"Okay, okay, Valya, don't be angry, Mr. Mino should also be unintentional, you yourself know the characteristics of the Yadai cake, think about the first time Patian they eat, don't take it to heart. ”

Just when the emotions of Mino and Valya were getting muddled up because of the misunderstanding, and they were about to lose the original atmosphere of the family banquet, Valya's mother finally spoke up.

I saw a woman who was seven points similar to Valya's appearance, but more soft and graceful, taller and more mature, and exuded a loving and tolerant atmosphere, and walked over with a light smile, comforting Valya softly, while welcoming Mino, who was still blocked out of the door.

"Valya, this kid because of her hard work, usually has little contact with people, so she doesn't speak well, I usually give her to Pascal and them because of my busy work, and I am used to being arrogant by them, so I have developed my current temperament, but my nature is still not bad, and I hope you don't mind, Mr. Mino. ”

"No...... Don't mind. Feeling the soft aura emanating from Valya's mother, listening to her soft apology, Mino suddenly had a feeling of facing his mother Miffy for some reason, obviously Valena blamed Valya, but Mino somehow suddenly had a sense of being counted down by his mother, and the words that had already reached his mouth suddenly became restrained: "Auntie, you are serious, I am only sixteen years old, not a few years older than Valya, Mr. Mino is too polite, you call me...... Just call me Mino. ”

"Yes, then I'll call you Mino. After gladly agreeing to Mino's suggestion, Valenna took Valya's hand, looked at Mino again, and found that both of them had taken their attention away from the misunderstanding just now, she pursed her lips and chuckled, leading the two to the dining table in the center of the living room, and then brought over three beautiful plates covered with lids.

Although it is covered with a lid and you can't see what it looks inside, Mino, who knows today's theme, doesn't have to think about it to know what is inside.

In this way, the theme that had been crooked was pulled back by Valenna lightly, and returned to tasting the Yadai cake.

Valya's constant praise from her previous travels, the extreme praise given by various books, the entanglement with the ancient knight king about the origin of the artifact, and the wonderful fragrance that caused a quarrel just now and almost ruined her friendship with Valya, all made Mino, who was not a foodie, full of expectations for this Yadai cake.

Seeing that this thing was finally placed in front of him, Mino couldn't wait to open the lid on the plate and see the true face of this Yadai cake.

Seeing the impatience in Mino's eyes, Valena smiled slightly, and without Mino's urging, she just opened the lid on the plate.

As the lid was removed, the appearance of Yadai's cake finally appeared in front of Mino's eyes.

Completely different from ordinary cakes, Yadai cake is actually completely translucent, pale pink and pale pink color, like a natural crystal, Mino can even directly see the natural texture that vaguely forms the shape of an unknown fruit inside, and the cake is decorated with beautiful pink flowers with unknown materials.

Looking at the natural fit between the cake and the flowers, it is not so much an acquired decoration as the flowers that grow out of the cake.

What's even more surprising is that upon closer inspection, this kind of words exudes a special fragrance like the flowers that have just been picked in the morning, and perfectly blends with the faint fruity aroma of the cake itself, as if it should be like this.

Such an existence is not so much a delicate food as a delicate work of art, looking at this incomparably delicate Yadai cake, even if the faint fragrance continues to linger on the tip of the nose, Mino's throat rolls up and down, swallowing the uncontrolled secretion of saliva again and again, but there is an urge to protect the artwork and not eat it.
