Chapter 380 - 379 Let’s not talk about those things.

"Let’s not talk about those things. I know I was wrong. Let’s talk about your affairs instead. This Funeral Parlor Director is very curious about what you encountered in Inazuma. I remember Inazuma was quite chaotic, wasn’t it? Did you encounter anything when you went there?"

"We encountered many things. We went to find the Raiden Shogun, but somehow we agreed to help others fight against the Vision Hunt Decree. Afterwards, there were also issues with the resistance and the Fatui. We didn’t stop for a long time."

"Wow~! That exciting, huh? Much more exciting than This Funeral Parlor Director’s work. How nice, if only I could go on adventures with you."

But unfortunately, as the Director of Wangsheng Funeral Parlor, Hu Tao couldn’t leave freely. Don’t let her appearance fool you; Wangsheng Funeral Parlor had many things waiting for her to handle. Even leaving for a short while could cause Wangsheng Funeral Parlor to cease operations, and many funerals required her personal attention.

"Thinking about it now, it was indeed very thrilling, but the danger factor was particularly high. We weren’t there to play."

"I know, I know. But don’t you have Durandal with you? With her by your side, you don’t have to worry too much about safety."

Hu Tao knew Durandal’s identity. With such a powerful person protecting her, even if she acted a little recklessly, there wouldn’t be much danger.

"Alright, I know you all have a lot to say after not seeing each other for a long time, but could you please eat quickly?"

At this moment, Xiangling walked over and, seeing that everyone except Paimon hadn’t touched their chopsticks, put her hands on her hips and said with a hint of displeasure.

"Don’t you know that it’s very impolite to the person who cooked the meal? The food is still hot, eat it quickly."

"Ah! Now that you mention it, I just remembered I’m still hungry. By the way, aren’t you eating too much! Paimon! Stop it quickly, you’re almost done eating all of our portions."

"Wuwuwuwuwu."

"Swallow your food before you speak. No, I can’t keep complaining."

The food fight made the atmosphere even livelier. Durandal and Shenhe didn’t join them. They elegantly ate the food in their bowls, unlike Lumine, Hu Tao, and Paimon, who were using both hands.

Durandal remembered Lumine was quite ladylike when she ate. How did she become like this now? Was it influenced by Paimon? Had she completely abandoned her ladylike dignity?

"Really, don’t eat so quickly. Even if you’re not full, when we go back later, I can just make you a little more, can’t I?"

Durandal took out a handkerchief to wipe the food scraps from Lumine’s face. Paimon, who was devouring her food, heard that Durandal was going to cook herself, her eyes suddenly lit up. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Durandal say very mercilessly.

"Paimon excluded. Anyway, you’ve already eaten so much, one meal from me won’t make a difference. If you have an objection, then I’ll make a dish that tastes like you, so you can have a good taste."

"Eh?! You... are you finally going to eat me, Durandal?"

"No, Lumine would definitely stop me if I did that. But I can use other methods. Now I have an ability where, as long as I get a strand of your hair, I can create an unconscious version of you. Then I’ll use this unconscious you as an ingredient to make a dish. Do you want to taste yourself?"

Ugh! It’s truly horrifying, truly horrifying. Just hearing about something like this is scary enough, let alone facing it in person.

Paimon, as the person involved, also couldn’t accept it, crying and saying she would be obedient and definitely wouldn’t cause Miss Delezie any trouble.

"Hey, can you really do something like that?"

She hadn’t forgotten that Miss Delezie helped Raiden Makoto create a body. Could Miss Delezie really have such a technique?

"Of course not. I haven’t eaten her, so how would I know what she tastes like? At most, I could create something that looks similar to put on a show, but even that, I believe, would be enough."

Just as she said, no one knows what Paimon tastes like anyway, so even if she made a vegetarian dish, everyone would accept it.

Besides, she was just trying to scare Paimon. She wouldn’t bear to do such a thing; she just found Paimon’s crying expression quite amusing, and coupled with her gluttonous nature, she couldn’t help but scare him a bit.

"Hmm? Is this... a Liyue pastry?"

At this moment, Miss Delezie noticed the pastries placed nearby. These were Liyue pastries, something not found in Inazuma.

While no one else was paying attention, Miss Delezie secretly took the plate, placed it under the table, took out all the pastries with a handkerchief, and then put the plate back in its original position.

Then, with a gentle wave of her hand under the table, a bolt of lightning cut a small opening, and Miss Delezie placed the pastries she held inside.

"These are Liyue pastries; you probably haven’t tried them. I’ll make you something delicious tonight; for now, these will have to do."

"Hmm, thank you, Miss Delezie."

Yes, it’s exactly as you think. Miss Delezie has the ability to open the Plane of Euthymia at any time. This was something she and Ei had agreed upon: if she found something delicious, she would send a portion to her.

To some extent, Ei is now being kept as a pet by Miss Delezie, and she doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with it.

It’s just that the Raiden Shogun has a lot of opinions, but Miss Delezie understands that the Raiden Shogun is just jealous, feeling that she dotes on Ei and neglects her.

This is also the most troublesome part; appeasing both Ei and the Raiden Shogun’s emotions at the same time is actually quite bothersome, but... Miss Delezie enjoys it.
