Animeverse Kitchen: My Culinary Journey Begins with Glowing Food! Chapter 452 452: On Valentine's Day!

Ryohei's chocolate-making lesson this ti was quite successful, with everyone sharing their respective "fruits of labor" with each other.

dusa suddenly handed over an exquisite gift box, tilted her head slightly, and said with a bright smile, "Ryohei-kun, here are your Valentine's Day chocolates, I'll give them to you in advance."

Valentine's Day was on a Monday, and she wouldn't be in the human world, so she simply gave them early.

"Mn, arigato."

Ryohei accepted it generously, without the slightest bit of awkwardness.

"Mmm—!"

Jashin-chan watched this scene unfold from the side. Like an incompetent husband, she unconsciously clenched her fists, glaring viciously at Ryohei, her silver teeth almost crushed from grinding.

Damn it—! The important person dusa ntioned really is you? Just when exactly did you poach my ATM!

Jashin-chan was extrely angry inside, roaring madly.

In the kitchen, because of dusa's sudden chocolate gift, the atmosphere abruptly beca subtle.

"..." Ryohei glanced at Jashin-chan, who looked like she couldn't wait to finish him off on the spot. The corners of his lips curled up slightly. He looked at the remaining gift box on the counter and gently asked dusa:

"Who do you plan to give that remaining portion to?"

"It's a secret."

dusa clasped her hands behind her back, seemingly inadvertently sweeping a glance at Jashin-chan, her smile brilliant.

"I see." Ryohei nodded with a look of "I understand."

"Mmm..." Yurine also nodded, looking at dusa and Jashin-chan—the yuri vibes were looking great!

Lucoa suddenly had so teasing thoughts. She walked to dusa's side and leaned down—this movent caused the voluptuous curves on her chest to jiggle slightly twice.

Lucoa leaned close to dusa's ear, half-covering her mouth with her hand, and whispered, "Could it be... dusa, are you also a dual-wielder?"

"Eh, eh, eh—! I'm not!"

dusa was startled, and her small face instantly flushed red, white steam puffing out from the top of her head. She opened up so distance from Lucoa, waving her hands repeatedly in flustered denial.

"Just kidding~." Seeing her reaction, Lucoa couldn't help covering her lips and chuckling lightly, a trace of pleasure from a successful prank flashing through her magnificent heterochromatic eyes.

...

In the blink of an eye, the ti arrived at Monday, February 14th, Valentine's Day.

Ryohei woke up from his sleep, and the system panel automatically popped up—

[Infinite Entry System]

[Ability Entries]: [Luminous Cuisine (Gold)], [Luck (Blue, Inactive)], [Storage Space (Blue)], [Power of One Dragon (Blue)]...

[Item Entries]: [Very Tasty Drowsy Black Tea (White)]...

"..."

His gaze fell on the "Extract Entry" option at the very bottom.

With a thought, the text on the light screen quickly faded and disappeared, the background turning a deep black, and countless points of light flew towards him like teors.

Finally—

A dazzling sar of blue occupied the entire light screen!

"Blue?"

Ryohei gained a bit of interest.

Soon, two lines of text erged on the light screen—

"Congratulations, you have obtained the Blue Item Entry — Delicious Obedience Dango * 10!"

"Entry Effect: After feeding this dango to a living creature, said creature will develop a strong sense of affinity towards you, obey your every command, and be at your rcy. (Note: The effect diminishes over ti!)"

"What a wicked item!"

Ryohei couldn't help but widen his eyes, feeling that this system was becoming increasingly "criminal."

Fortunately, he was an upright person, otherwise so people... mmm, perhaps it wouldn't just be people in danger...

"..." Ryohei put away the system panel and got out of bed to wash up.

...

Valentine's Day wasn't a statutory holiday, but Ryohei gave himself a day off.

He was the boss, so what he said went.

On this day, he didn't go out on a solo date with Yurine either—she had classes in the afternoon, and coupled with the fact that today was Second's birthday, Ryohei suggested they all go skiing in Hokkaido in the morning and have a dinner party in the evening to liven things up.

Hearing that Ryohei was going to hold a birthday dinner party for her daughter, Persephone took the initiative to take charge of tonight's ingredients, delivering them early to Stardew Valley Ranch—all of which were local specialties from the Demon World.

—She also brought her best friend Lierre to the ranch.

In addition to that, Second sought Ryohei's opinion and invited Ecute and Atre.

"Ryohei-kun, excuse the intrusion! These are Valentine's Day chocolates, please accept them!"

Atre, wearing a dark uniform, stepped forward and offered an exquisite gift box with both hands.

Over the past month or so, she and Ecute had patronized the restaurant multiple tis, and both sides could be considered quite familiar with each other.

"Arigato."

Ryohei didn't decline and accepted it with a smile.

"Ah—! A God of Heaven!"

Aside, Ecute, who had just finished giving Second her birthday present, seed to have discovered sothing. She pointed in surprise at Lierre, who was standing there with her arms crossed like a little adult.

"What's wrong? Do you know each other?"

Minos put one hand on her waist, turning her head to ask curiously.

"Mn, I was almost killed by her before!" Ecute complained with her signature sugaki voice.

As her voice fell—

Everyone present was stunned.

Pino widened her beautiful pale purple eyes, swept a terrified glance at Lierre, and scurried behind Yurine like a frightened rabbit, poking her head out to look warily at Lierre.

Lierre felt her reputation was being damaged. She raised her hand to her forehead, and seeing Pino's reaction made her even more speechless. Naturally, she didn't have a good tone towards Ecute:

"You attacked a child from the orphanage, and you still have the nerve to say this?"

"It was indeed my Princess who was in the wrong. I have already disciplined her, and she will absolutely not commit the sa offense again in the future."

Atre hurriedly raised her hand and pressed it on Ecute's head, forcing her to bow, and she herself bowed to apologize.

"So that's it, then you totally deserved it!"

"Yeah!"

"Makes it impossible to sympathize!"

"Alright!"

Ryohei leaned down slightly, pinched Ecute's slightly baby-fat face, and smoothed things over: "Let bygones be bygones, but don't do that again in the future."

"I know... I don't crave human blood anymore," Ecute lifted her face, letting Ryohei pinch her cheeks, and muttered.

"You crave my cooking, right?" Ryohei's lips curled up.

"Mhm."

"Yurine." Jashin-chan sneaked up beside Yurine shiftily, covered her mouth with her hand, and said with a sly face: "I suspect Servant is a bit of a lolicon. What do you think?"

I think you want to stir up trouble.

Yurine gave her an indifferent look.

"I heard that! Believe it or not, I'll whack you!"

Ryohei turned his head and warned the rumor-monger.

"Mn? Look at him, he even wants to retaliate against !" Jashin-chan knew how to falsely accuse soone. She pointed at Ryohei and slapped a "retaliation" label on him.

"Screw you!"

Ryohei delivered a Leo Kick, but unfortunately, it was nimbly dodged by Jashin-chan.

He didn't dwell on it either, clapped his hands, and changed the subject: "Alright, let's head to the parking lot. We're getting ready to set off!"

"Ohhh—!"

"GO!"
