Chapter 41 The Unlucky President
Chapter 41 The Unlucky President
”Welcome!”
The person who greeted guests at the door of the dessert shop was a pretty girl.
Rod’s evaluation was that she was not as good as Mira.
”Can you two sit here?”
Another cute waitress led them to their seats.
Rod’s evaluation was that she was not as good as Mira.
When passing by the cashier, the cashier smiled gently.
Rod’s evaluation was that she was not as good as Mira…
Alas~ I’m so drunk, calm down, calm down.
I don’t know if it’s because it just opened, but this dessert shop has a good business.
After Rod and Mira sat down, there were no empty seats in the store.
Most of the customers were girls who came together, and a small number were male and female groups. There was soft music playing in the store, and the atmosphere was quite good.
“Iced coffee, hazelnut cookies, blueberry mousse cake…” Mira ordered two desserts, and then showed a distressed look.
Rod asked at the right time: “What’s wrong?”
”I want to try the wheel puffs too.” Mira pinched her waist under the table, which had no fat, “but I feel that I will get fat.”
”Do wizards also have this kind of trouble?” Rod thought for a while, “Then I’ll have some, and we’ll eat in turn.”
”Good idea!” Mira’s eyes lit up, “That won’t take up the share you want to eat…”
”You know I like to taste all kinds of delicious food, and I don’t worry about my figure. It doesn’t matter if I order a few more.”
As for desserts, it doesn’t matter what you eat.
Rod felt that he exercised so much every day, so he didn’t worry about calories at all.
The waitress in charge of taking orders looked at Mira with envy and quickly wrote down her order: “Please wait.”
”The atmosphere here is great, no wonder it’s so popular.”
Mira took off her sun hat and put it aside, gathered her bangs with her hands, and put the rubber band on her wrist on her hair, returning to her normal hairstyle.
In fact, it looks good with her bangs down.
”Well, it’s much quieter than the guild.” Rhode didn’t stare at her all the time, but glanced at the couples and girlfriends whispering in the store.
”I feel this place is very suitable for afternoon tea, dating, etc.”
Mira triggered the passive gossip attribute: “Oh, does Rhode often bring girls to this kind of store for dates?”
”I’m not Loki.” Rhode believes that this kind of question must be answered firmly and decisively.
”I didn’t have any close female friends before, and I never went into places like dessert shops and coffee shops.”
I didn’t dare to fall in love early before college, and I played with my brothers every day after college.
Café? × Internet cafe! √ Mira blinked: “Why do I suddenly feel a little pitiful?”
”Hey…”
Mira laughed: “No wonder I didn’t even dare to look directly at Kana at the beginning.”
”Please forget about it.” Rod is used to it now. Now, let alone looking directly at her, he can even fight.
Although he can’t win.
”Your dessert, please enjoy it slowly.” The waiter brought two cups of iced coffee and a beautiful dessert.
”Ah, the wheel puff is more exquisite than I thought, let’s try this first.”
Mira stretched out her knife and fork, and Rod took away the plate: “No.”
”Huh? Why?”
”I’m not happy because I was teased.”
Mira laughed, put her hands together, and blinked her left eye slightly: “How about I apologize?”
”Well, I forgive you.” Rod nodded calmly, pushed the plate over, and looked out the window.
It’s too foul to flirt, I need to look somewhere else to calm down.
Then…
Rod saw something familiar: “Stone statue? Hill?”
”What?” Mira had a small piece of dessert on her fork, but she hadn’t put it in her mouth yet. She followed Rhode’s gaze and saw a hill of suitcases and a petrified Erza.
Mira put down her fork: “Erza?”
Rod nodded: “It seems that there is no seat, so the clerk blocked her outside.”
Mira thought for a while: “Let her in? Let her squeeze in with us.”
Of course she didn’t want to.
But she was pitiful. Looking at her luggage cart, you can tell that she had just completed a mission and rushed here without going home.
They are all companions.
Rod sighed in his heart: “Then I’ll go call her.”
”Wait a minute.” Mira stoppedHe.
”What’s wrong?”
Mira covered her mouth and smiled: “I want to see more, Erza is so cute like this.”
Black-hearted.
So Rod also took a closer look. The majestic Erza looked so distraught because of such a small matter. It was really cute, with a sense of contrast.
The devil in the dessert house finally invited the fairy queen outside the store.
Rod reminded her that there were no extra stools inside, but Erza immediately pulled one out of the mountain-like suitcase and took out a folding chair from it.
It’s not a daily style. Looking at the pictures and words on it, it looks more like a souvenir from somewhere.
It can be seen that she really wants to eat dessert.
Rod and Mira still sat opposite each other, and Erza sat on the side and called the waiter to order.
Strawberry cake, strawberry pudding, strawberry milkshake… There were more than a dozen items ordered, all strawberry flavored.
Don’t be too obvious about your preferences.
The waiter quickly wrote down the menu and left, before leaving, he gave Rhode a look that looked at him like a scumbag.
This sister is too arrogant, who dares to scum Erza!
Mira is already chatting with Erza: “Did the mission go smoothly? You came back earlier than scheduled.”
”Yeah!” Erza clenched her fist and raised her arm, her eyes full of expectation, “Because I have been looking forward to this restaurant for a long time.”
Mira said: “As expected of Erza… But it is related to the work of the Council, is it really okay to come earlier without authorization?”
”This… this…” Erza was also a little guilty, “I hope I don’t get the president scolded.”
Rhode asked curiously: “What mission, it actually involves the Council… Does it need to be kept secret?”
Erza looked at Mira. In principle, it needs to be kept secret before it is confirmed to be completed, even for companions.
But now there is only the finishing work left, and Mira has the final say.
“It doesn’t matter if Erza’s work has been completed. It will be published in the newspaper in a few days anyway.” Mira said, “It is to assist the Council to arrest all members of the dark guild Scorpion Tail.”
”Doesn’t the Council have its own law enforcement team?” Rhode’s common sense supplement plan worked well.
”Yes, but the Council is a continent-wide organization, and there is only one branch in Fiore.
The place where Scorpion Tail hides is relatively remote, and the troops cannot be quickly mobilized.
Usually when encountering such a situation, the Council will issue assistance commissions to local guild alliances in various places, and then the local guild alliances will assign them to specific guilds.”
”I see, so this task was given to our guild by the local guild alliance.”
Rhode speculated, “Is it because the guild has a high reputation in the alliance?”
Erza Denied: “No, it’s because the president has bad luck.”
”Huh?”
”The rewards for this kind of commission are usually lower than those for tasks of the same difficulty, so as long as it is not a very dangerous task, the allocation method is decided by the presidents drawing lots.”
As she spoke, Erza sighed, “And our president…”
Mira smiled and continued: “… He often draws the worst lot.”
Rode: “…”
The president may have used all his luck to pick up children, and he picked up an S-level one every time
