Chapter 911 Eating With The Family
I decided to make a delicious pizza, and some empanadas too because I felt like it. Emeraldine started baking a strawberry cheesecake alongside it, Partner made grilled and roasted meat of all kinds, Lucifer prepared noodles and a tasty sauce, Jonathan made fruit salad, milkshakes, and other things with the help of Tear\'s magic, Catarina butchered any of the thousands of beasts stored in my inventory to make them into tasty food.
Overall my adventure we\'ve hunted all sorts of creatures, and they get well stored inside my inventory, never rotting or something, so we always have fresh meat! Although I had once emptied my reserves because I had to feed my village, now that they\'re much more self-sustainable thanks to all the cows, sheep, and pigs the Dwarves gifted to us, alongside the greenhouse we built for crops, I\'ve been able to save a lot of meat and other ingredients again.
And because we fought thousands of Frost Monsters when Tear was evil, we\'ve got meat for an eternity! Frost Monsters weren\'t just made of ice either, they were Frost Wolves, Winter Snakes, and even Blizzard Crows, among many other creatures.
And well, they were all meaty… I left several of them stored back in my village for everyone to take, but the biggest haul is always carried in my inventory!
And the stronger the monsters, the tastier their meat is and the more Mana they recover! I made sure to cut the meat in different ways, and I\'ve also got a lot of curated meat, some salami too, chorizo, sausages, all I could ever think of!
I made several delicious pizzas with that and a lot of the cheese I brought back in the Dwarven Kingdom, the smell of them coming out from the oven I had inside my shadow realm was enchanting.
There were also meat and cheese empanadas, and the cakes Emeraldine made on the get-go, filled with tasty fruit. Her cheesecakes were amazing too.
With so many delicious meals, we couldn\'t stop feasting and celebrating just being alive and having survived that with everyone.
Laughing, joking, and more… We couldn\'t really be serious right now, we really just needed a time like this to sit back and enjoy what\'s beautiful in life, even knowing that there will be once more grim times.
"Anyways, I was wondering, is Violet okay?" Lucifer asked me as he was eating a slice of pizza. "I\'ve been worrying about her…"
"She\'s okay, she\'s still sleeping." I said. "She\'s healthy, her soul is healing. It\'ll take her a while to wake up, days, maybe weeks. We have to be patient and let her rest and slowly reassess her memories and mind, it\'s going to be hard. She\'s probably dreaming right now, reassembling her sense of self…"
"I-I see…" Lucifer sighed, drinking some tea. "Phew… Well, I\'m glad we could save her, thank you, Maria… I really appreciate it."
"It\'s fine dear, she was your sister-in-law, right? I couldn\'t possibly leave her to die." I smiled. "Your wife\'s passing was already too tragic… I\'m glad I was able to at least save her sister."
"Yeah… I\'m glad too, that there\'s another dragon, aside from my sister of course- And Nyx." He nodded. "With that, it makes us… Four? That\'s already a lot!"
"Hahah, well, we could make more little dragons one day, if you catch my drift." I winked to him.
"E-Eh? You can?" He wondered curiously.
"Well… Dunno." I shrugged. "We can try until it works too, ehehe~ Though, if I ever ascend into a goddess, it might become surely possible too…" I rubbed my chin, making my flirting into a serious topic.
"It\'s too early to be flirting around." He sighed. "But I\'ll keep that in mind." He smiled, giving me a kiss in my lips. "I love you."
"E-Eh?!" I felt a bit embarrassed at that! But I guess I had to say it back too. "I-I love you too… But what\'s with that?! You caught me off guard! You\'re usually more reserved."
"I just had to say it, after everything that happened…" He gently held my hand, while caressing Nyx\'s little head as she ate and talked and laughed with her friends. "It makes me appreciate the things I have even more. I love you and Nyx so much, you\'re everything to me… So, that\'s… err, well, that\'s it I guess… Ah, yeah it is embarrassing. I\'m usually not this corny."
"Heheh, it was cute." I giggled, giving his handsome face another kiss. "Thank you for sticking with me all this time! Ever since I found you in that dungeon. Since then that our lives had given twists after twists, but here we are, still struggling, still fighting… but together, nonetheless."
"Yeah." Lucifer nodded. "And together we shall be… Until we can finally achieve a peaceful life in this chaotic world…"
"Indeed~" Emeraldine nodded at my side. "You two are talking all the lovey-dovey stuff and leaving me behind~ Not fair." She gave me a kiss in my nose. "I also am very happy to be with you… You\'re also my everything, Maria!"
"E-Emeraldine…" I blushed a bit, her beauty combined with her innocence made her someone that always left me a bit paralyzed! She was too endearing. "Y-You too are my everything I guess…" I felt embarrassed.
"Fufu, so cute when you get all embarrassed~!" Emeraldine teased me lightly. "I love you, mooch, mooch." She was giving me adorable kisses while hugging me.
"I love you too." I hugged her back.
"Heey… Don\'t just leave me behind, alright?" Partner pouted. "Master!"
"Geez, do you always have to ask for attention when I\'m getting mine, Partner? You can have yours later." Emeraldine cutely complained.
"Eeeh? Don\'t be a meanie…" Partner sighed.
"Hehehe, don\'t worry, I have love for all of you equally. I love you too my adorable Partner!" I gave her a big kiss. "You\'re so cute and lovely… Ah, I just said that out loud…"
"W-Wha…?!" Partner, who I had rarely told her things with such honesty, was as red as a tomato. "M-Masteeeer!" She hugged me tightly, kissing me all over…
