But fortunately, the black cat with the second illness got along very well with the child-like Mordred. When Lansi and Asuna came out with the cookies, they saw Mordred waving his arms to The black cat bragged about how she accompanied her father in the war and how she killed the pirates, all kinds of bloody words that needed to be silenced kept coming out of her mouth.

Asuna on the other side frowned, and even wondered if she had forgotten to turn on the harmony mode of 'SAO', but the black cat didn't feel it at all, and was even more excited. After all, as a otaku who likes youth comics, maybe When she saw the real thing, she would throw up directly, but just listening to it would only make her adrenaline rush.

In the end, when Mordred left contentedly, the black cat was still a little bit reluctant, but Lan Si, who was looking at Mordred's back from the other side, was thinking about an extremely serious matter.

Mordred looks like King Arthur, but why does he eat so little?What the other party ate just now should not be more than 1/10 of what King Arthur ate in his shop that night, right?Could this be... following my mother?

Mordred came quickly and left quickly. According to her, she planned to tell her father the good news earlier, while Lan Si shook his head helplessly.

Although under the temptation of rewards, Lan Si chose to agree, but he made a lot of demands, some of which could even be said to be harsh. From Lan Si's point of view, the other party's father agreed or disagreed, probably [-]-[-], right?

If he can complete a B-level task and get a powerful item just by being a 'clothes rack', he naturally doesn't mind, but if it takes him a lot of time, he can only choose to give up, after all, even if he ignores the All variables are only considered from the perspective of probability, or is it more cost-effective in the store, who knows if there will be similar or better tasks in a few days?

Let's not mention Mordred for the time being, after all, Lansi has already given the right to choose to the other party, and now the decision-making power is no longer his.

And on the other hand—————

"Asuna, you did better than usual today~"

Asuna was a little surprised to hear Lan Si's praise, and then stuffed a cookie she made herself into her mouth, but she frowned. Looking at the other party's actions, Lan Si couldn't help but feel a little funny.

"Anyway, I've been studying for a long time. If it's so simple and you surpass me, Asuna, wouldn't my training be in vain?"

Asuna was a little unconvinced when she heard Lansi's words. After all, she has been with Lansi for almost a year, and her 'cooking' skills have already reached LV MAX. In theory, it shouldn't be too far behind Lansi. ?

Seeing Asuna's unconvinced expression, Lan Si also smiled and shook his head without saying much. Lan Si already knew about the other party's "game system assistance". He cuts the perfect ingredients while chatting with people, and he is very serious when cooking.

"I know a friend whose piano can guide people's emotions, so I am also trying to use cooking to achieve this, but there is still a short distance from the other party..."

Hearing Lan Si's explanation, Asuna was a little surprised at first, but then she had an expression of enlightenment.

One must know that SAO is set in a fantasy world, so it is not impossible for cooking to affect emotions...of course it is only in the game.

Regarding Asuna's silence, Lan Si didn't say much. After all, he had known each other for so long, and he also knew that the other party treated him as an NPC. However, Lan Si didn't want to cause trouble at first. Let Kayaba Akihiko discover his plan, and he simply continued to pretend to be an NPC.

'If Asuna came to the store again after leaving, what kind of expression would she show? '

Lan Si's expression is also a little subtle, but Asuna seems to have misunderstood Lan Si's subtle expression, and she rarely plays the temper of a little girl.

"In that case, Lan Si, do you know what I was thinking just now?"

If it was before, it would probably be impossible for Lan Si to know, but this time it is different. After all, as Lan Si said, what the other party made today is different from the past.

"Is it loneliness? No, maybe it should be said that it is a desire for protection?"

Although some of Asuna's emotions were mixed into the cooking, it was too weak. If Lan Si hadn't been studying it all the time, I might not have noticed it at all.

The black cat on the other side knows Lan Si's situation clearly, so she doesn't feel that Lan Si is joking, but it's a pity that she still doesn't feel anything wrong after listening to Lan Si's words. I can secretly sigh that I am still not capable enough.

Asuna was surprised when she heard Lan Si's words, but then she gave a wry smile without explaining.

At this moment, she couldn't tell whether the Lan Si and the black cat in front of her were NPCs or real people.

"Maybe……"

Without explaining, Asuna just lowered her head a little disappointed.

Undoubtedly, the existence of Lan Si did ease her daily life a little, and even supported her from tensing her nerves all the time and causing any radical changes in herself, but in the final analysis, it was only a temporary solution, not a permanent cure. No matter how good the relationship between the two parties is, they are just friends, and they are still far from real family members.

"If possible, I really hope that my father and mother can taste my cooking..."

"Side Quest: A Girl's Heart"

Mission Difficulty: F

Task requirements: Deliver the heartfelt dishes made by the girl to the other party's family

Mission Reward: Points X 100"

Lan Si was a little surprised by the sudden task, but he didn't think too much about it. After all, he often encountered similar F-level tasks. Almost all F-level tasks were rewarded with points. It was done smoothly, and it was the same this time.

It's not difficult, but it needs to go far away. If it's an unfamiliar person, Lan Si may hesitate, but he won't refuse the friend's business, anyway, it can be done easily.

"In that case, leave it to me!"

Asuna who heard Lan Si's words froze for a moment, but then nodded with a smile.

"Then...thank you~"

Obviously she didn't take it seriously. After all, in her opinion, even if Lan Si is not an NPC, it is impossible to give the props in the game world to her family. She said more, but in order to take care of Lan Si's emotions, she had to Saying Lan Si's words really made her feel better, even though she knew it was just comforting her heart.

Picking up the teacup in front of her and finishing the black tea in one gulp, Asuna also stood up.

"Huh~ It's time for the rest to end, and it's time for me to complete my duties. It's time for a meeting later."

Asuna, who was wearing a black windbreaker at the door, looked heroic, as if she had thrown all her cowardice into the store, and Lan Si nodded with a smile.

"In that case, welcome to visit next time~"

Chapter 10 Nobuyuki Sugo's Favor

In a city full of traffic, people seem to be in a hurry even if it is not peak hours, but there are four different types among these people.

The black cat in a gothic dress looked curiously at the familiar but unfamiliar streets around her. Her strong curiosity made her want to look around, but even so she didn't run around, after all, even if she knew that Men don't leave themselves behind, but she's horrified at the thought that she might get lost in a strange world.

But Qie who was behind the black cat followed closely behind without saying a word. For her, no matter which world she was in, the most important thing for her was Lan Si's order, and this time Lan Si The commander ordered her to keep up with the black cat so that the other party would not get lost, so in her eyes there was only the black cat.

As for Lan Si, he is at the forefront of the team. He looks very calm about the surroundings. After all, although this place is more advanced than his "hometown", it is limited, at least not like a black cat with a face of curiosity and amazement.
