30 Lily’s Appetite (2/2)

”If Lord Xendra was interested in deep talk about this, I will be in this inn for quite a long time. So, Lord can call upon me anytime.”

”Good, I will notify you if I had the time.” I nod my head and then he dismisses himself after giving me a bow.

Afterward, I take the still hungry-looking Lily with me back to the plaza so I could continue the objective for today. Of course, I didn't forget to pay the sharp-nosed steward.

The way to the plaza was quite uneventful and I reach the still crowded plaza after about five minutes of walk.

One hour just passed as we eat lunch, so the line was just half done. I decided to just sit and wait for all of it to finished. As time keeps moving on, Lily seems to get bored and spoke to me,

”Wyne, this was taking way too long! I want to do something.”

Lily's word makes me think of something.

'Hah… It would be good if there is some kind of game that could be played to fill in spare time.'

'Now that I think about it, the people in this era didn't know what board game is. Things such as card, chess, mahjong, reversal, and much more could be made as it would be popular to wealthy class and above.' I discover another thing that could be popular on a large scale.

”Just wait, I promise you something back at the base,” I answered Lily's grumbling and promise to give her something in exchange.

”Okay!” She cheerfully nods and smiles while humming something.

I then close my eyes and practice my Breathing Technique to pass the time.

One hour passed in the blink of an eye, the people finally finished registering. The papers that were used were piling up at the tables.

'I will need Vonix to scan all of the documents and determined which was useful and do an examination tomorrow.'

As there were basically way too many people that registered in the plaza, I didn't immediately conduct an examination as that will take too long and instead write each of them down to a paper and analyzed it with Vonix.

Then, I told Sir Gareth to announce the conclusion of the day and rewards anyone that participates with one silver and some food.

As the Fortuna Chamber of Commerce becoming more success day by day, it produces hundreds of golds in revenue every day from all the villages, towns, and cities in Xendra and Sanchez territory.

Having too much money without it circulating to the people wasn't a very good idea unless someone wants to make a castle out of copper, silver, and gold.

People were happy receiving the money and they were called one by one under the watch of the guards and officials in case someone asks for the money again after receiving it.

Then, I take Lily back to the mansion and then to the base with luxurious carriage. I also told the officials to bring the paperback to the mansion before later picked up by the robots.

Not long after, we reach the outskirt of the base and start walking to the base. I then go straight to the kitchen and told Lily to wait at the dining hall.

As she was eagerly waiting at the dining hall, I ordered the hand robot to make something special. The kitchen used a robot hand that could move freely and makes food as good as a five-star chef in my previous world, although they couldn't improve and since the device, there was so advanced, cooking was done way faster than it was supposed to be.

I got back to the dining hall and wait for about twenty minutes before an 'All Purpose Robot' dressed in a servant uniform came and bringing a food trolley.

Above the trolley was a white pale-colored food with the shape of a wide tube. A red-colored strawberry could be seen attractively decorating the upper surface of the food making anyone that sees it drool in desire.

”Wyne, what is that food?” Lily tilted her head cutely as she asked me with her pure voice.

”It's cake or more specifically, a strawberry cake,” I answered with a satisfied smile.

Since the ingredient to make a cake was mostly a dairy product that could be found in my territory, I decided to make one for Lily.

The robot then places the cake on top of the table between us. Then, it cut the cake into 8 portions.

As it gives one of the portions to Lily's plate, she immediately takes her scoop and ate part of it. Just as the scoop full of cakes gets into her mouth, her eyes shine in delight and her body seems to shudder in excitement. If she had a tail, then it would have wagging in happiness.

After enjoying the sight of Lily, I scoop up mine and take a bite. A sweet taste spread upon my mouth as the cake melt in my mouth.

”It's sweet, I guess. I think Lily enjoys it very much!” Then, I slowly scoop up the cake into my mouth and eat slowly.

Just as I finished eating my part and gaze into the whole cake at the center. My mouth went agape as I see what state the cake was. The cake that was supposed to be at the plate was gone, totally gone.

At first, I was doubtful from what I just see then I gaze my view to Lily and see that her mouth was smeared by cake and was currently munching something in her mouth.

”Lily, did you just all of the cake?” I glared at her questioningly.

She then shakes her head innocently while still munching the cake and holding her mouth with her two hands.

”...” Seeing that, I lost for word.
