Chapter 631 Quick decision.
631 Quick decision.
After a little bit more chat with Zirrack, Blake excused
himself and made his way to the restaurant section and took a seat before
scanning the menu.
As an Angel, Blake had no need for food as his organs most
especially, had evolved to being able to survive solely on the environmental
mana which it automatically absorbed. However, since his advancement into the
Angel realm, Blake had never stopped indulging himself in mouth-watering
delicacies.
It has always been one of his favourite things to do, and it
always reminded him of how simple life used to be.
Once he had made up his mind on what he wanted, Blake
informed the waiter who took the order, and soon after came the food for him, Ebony,
and Ivory.
For appetizer, he was served large mushroom caps filled with
a mixture of cream cheese, parmesan, garlic, and chopped crab meat, then baked
until golden and bubbly.
The main course was an oven-baked salmon fillet seasoned
with herbs and lemon, served on a bed of savoury lentils cooked with onions and
garlic, and accompanied by sautéed spinach.
Dessert was silky smooth chocolate mousse made with silken
tofu, dark chocolate, and a hint of vanilla, topped with a sprinkle of cocoa
powder and fresh raspberries.
The sumptuous three-course meal was just the first round of
course. Blake had order 2 more rounds of 3 course meals while ignoring the
shocked expressions on the faces of the customers in the restaurant.
It was just like the good old days of Magic school!
"The good thing about being an Angel is having full control
of your metabolism rate, so I don't have to worry about staying in shape as I
can easily burn all the unwanted fat." It wasn't as if he ever has issues with
maintaining a healthy weight, but the idea that he could go all out whenever he
ate made him happy.
Ebony and Ivory who were done with their food couldn't help
but look at him with widened eyes when they heard his crazy thought process.
'He has never gone all out before?!'
"That actually explains why I have never seen an overweight
Angel before!" Blake was stunned by the sudden revelation causing him to miss
their reaction.
After settling the bill with his black card that was given
to him by Luciano, Blake began making his way out of the Adventurer Association
building.
"It's quite shocking that they didn't cease the money in my
account, but I feel it was one of their plans to track my location if I was ever to make a payment through the card." Blake chuckled at the thought of their
plans leaving him with absurd amounts of money. "Too bad all of this doesn't
mean much to me again."
It didn't take long for him to board a carriage, and in less
than 20 minutes he was already back home.
Having left the door open, Blake pushed the door and made
his way inside the house. In fact, all the doors in the house had been busted
open when the Ash Corps came looking for him, and up till now, they hadn't been
fixed.
However, he didn't see the point of getting them fixed. Anyone
strong enough to be a threat to him could instantly blow up the house, while
anyone else who might be snooping around the house was literally asking for a
death wish.
"It's surprising that he isn't back yet." Blake shrugged his
shoulders and made his way to his room upstairs.
He currently had nothing to do but he was long used to being
bored. So he floated in a crossed-legged position directly in front of his full
glass window. He, Ebony and Ivory sat in silence as they enjoyed the stunning Nôv(el)B\\jnn
view of the sunset.
An hour-plus later, the sun had gone down below the horizon,
sound of the front door downstairs opened, they didn't move. It was only when
Brian finally came upstairs and saw them, and they finally turned to him.
"That's so cool!" Brian couldn't help but confess as Blake
looked like a heavenly entity with two powerful beasts resting beside him.
"Finally, you are back."
For the rest for the day, nothing noteworthy happened.
Having had a long day, Brian didn't take long before going to bed, while Blake
who could go months without sleep stayed in the same position all through the
night.
Although he didn't show it, he still had a lot of internal
issues and feelings to sort out with the toughest being the exploration of the
southern continent and the race to becoming All-Father.
…
The next day, Blake watched as the sun rose high up in the
sky, and only moved when Camilla and Tessie arrived at his place.
Once their carriages has stopped in front of his compound,
Blake made his way down to the door where he opened the door even before they
knocked.
"Welcome back." Blake smiled as he gestured for them to come
inside.
"Where is Brian?" Camilla asked as the living was empty.
"Normal Brian, he is still asleep." Blake shut the door and
took a seat in between the two.
"Did you girls miss already or did you finally make up your
mind?" Blake teased, causing Tessie to turn red while a naughty smile appeared
on Camilla's face and a deep sexual tension emanated from her.
"Why don't we find out…" Camilla placed her hands on him,
but before she could rub his chest, they heard the sound of the guest room door
opening.
Immediately, she took her hand off Blake and a few seconds
later, Brian walked into the living room while rubbing his eyes.
"Eh?" Brian was surprised to see Camilla and Tessie, but
instead of wondering how long he had slept he said. "That was quick, I thought
you guys would be here in the afternoon at best?"
"It is already afternoon." Tessie giggled.
