"This taste...... It's quirky. ”

Itachi could clearly perceive that Artoria in front of her was brightened by the sensation of her own taste transmitted through her mind.

A person who was originally lifeless suddenly had a little warmth.

"It's really hard for normal people to accept this taste."

"But in a sense, it tastes good."

"I've never seen that bugs can be a delicacy."

Like Itachi, she commented on the delicacy with a hint of surprise and curiosity in her tone.

Listening to the change in Artoria's tone, Itachi couldn't help but open the cake on the table, "Then try this again." ”

Mai Trin couldn't see Artoria, but after Itachi unpacked the cake, she handed over a plastic knife and a few plastic forks just in time, "This is a knife and fork, and the cake cutting will be up to you, Itachi." ”

"It's not that ...... Can't you eat two foods at the same time? ”

Kushina looked at the two of them in confusion.

"Because I remember it because I remembered it wrong."

Mai Trin said casually and took the cake from Itachi.

As a pregnant woman, she didn't want to try the food at all.

"But speaking of which...... Didn't you and Watergate plan to have a baby? ”

Mikoto sat down next to Itachi and asked, "Mizuto has been running for the fourth generation recently, and if he can be successfully elected, he can stay in the village as the Hokage in the future." ”

"When the time comes, he will also have time to take care of you."

"Since you also want to retire and become a housewife, the child is very important, and having a child can make the family more lively."

Jiu Sinai seemed very enthusiastic about this topic, and was immediately distracted, "He and I are both thinking about it, but you also know that my situation is very complicated, and I have to report to the village in advance to ......"

Mikoto and Kushina are familiar with the topic of small talk between women.

Kakashi sat by the window without love, unconsciously eating the contents of the bowl while reading a book.

And Artoria, who was originally sitting next to Itachi, had already stood up because of Maikoto's seat.

Itachi turned his head as if inadvertently, and glanced at Artoria standing next to him.

At this time, her face no longer had the same look that she had just felt about the taste of food, but returned to a very calm appearance.

She seemed to be used to this kind of thing, and stood quietly by the couch without disturbing them.

Artoria is a very special existence in this world.

She came from another world, and she seemed out of place in this world.

Sometimes, she can touch the couch, touch the ground, stand on a tree branch, and even need someone to open the door for help to enter, just like a real person.

But sometimes, when she touched these objects, she would pass through them like a spirit,

Plus no one could see her at all except Itachi, and no one could hear her voice.

As a result of this situation, Artoria was never able to integrate into the ninja world.

At least...... Itachi often felt that she was far away.

There are even times when she seems to be in a daze more often than she is in the world.

Itachi is well aware that she is a person looking back on her previous life.

"How does this cake taste?"

Itachi picks up a piece of cake with a knife and fork and puts it in his mouth, feeling the sweetness in his mouth and conveying it to her.

"Hmm!"

Suddenly, Artoria's eyes lit up again, "It's so soft bread, it's completely different from the coarse bread in our country. ”

"And it's strawberry cream on top, it's special."

"There seems to be a difference with our cream."

As she spoke, she unconsciously stirred her tongue in her mouth, as if she was also eating, reminiscing.

Listening to her happy tone again, Itachi was silent for a moment, "Then I'll eat more." ”

As he ate, he passed on to her the feelings of the food when it fell into his mouth.

Whether it is the sweetness and sourness of the strawberries or the sweetness of the cream on the cake, he has passed it word for word.

All along, I seem to have ignored her feelings.

She was standing beside her, but she was the only one who could see her.

Obviously she is in this world, but only she knows about it.

Obviously, she is a person who knows herself better than her father and mother, and it is she who taught her to communicate and how to care about others, but she actually forgot to care about her and take care of her feelings.

Could the taste transfer of just a piece of cake make her so happy?

Itachi was really guilty in his heart.

A whole cake, he solved half of it directly.

Had it not been for Artoria alerting him, he would have almost eaten the whole cake.

It's not because she loves sweets, but I just want her to feel the world more and make her feel the world more, so that she can have memories in this world.

"Itachi, you've eaten so much cake in the afternoon, can you still eat for dinner?"

On the way home, Mai Trito asks Itachi in a soft voice.

"Of course."

Itachi nodded, "Mother, I'll be increasing my cultivation amount in the near future, so please help me prepare enough food." ”

"I'll cook you as much as you want, but don't force yourself too much."

Mai Trin reminded him.

"I understand."

Itachi replied calmly, without explaining much.

Since the beginning of the physical training, his appetite has increased almost several times.

The digestion brought about by a strong body allows him to fully absorb the energy he ingests and convert it into the essence, qi and blood required by the body......

However, in the past, Itachi was reluctant to waste more time on eating, so it often intuitively used a large number of medicinal materials to replenish the qi and blood in the body that had been lost due to cultivation.

But now...... He wanted to eat more.

Beside him, Artoria seemed to guess what he was thinking, and also reminded him: "It takes more time to decompose, absorb, and transform the food that is included than to supplement it with pure medicinal herbs. ”

"You don't have to waste your cultivation time because of me."

Itachi shook his head, "Although my digestion ability has been enhanced by the improvement of my physique, if I can exercise effectively while eating, I may be able to improve it alone. ”

The implication is that this is part of the practice.

That being the case, Artoria no longer refused.

However, perhaps because of the more frequent interaction between the minds, although she followed their footsteps smoothly on the surface, Itachi could feel that she was actually happy inside.

Happy for the taste of the food.

I'm happy to really get in touch with something out of this world.

Although in the process, she also needs to pass herself such an anchor.
