Aside from the strawberry-flavored star fruits (twice the size of an Azure Star) as vitamin supplents, the pre-dinner snack was Lagrange biscuits, capable of providing approximately 1.2 billion tons of TNT explosive equivalents of energy.
Due to the high sweetness, eating too many can cause tooth decay, so one-year-old Leoz is only allowed four pieces a day.
The main course is prepared by Aunt’s most trusted cook—the Half-Heaven Realm creature, lia Nana, making ’Holy Marquette al Bun’ and ’Stewed Star Realm Minotaur Oxtail · Blessed Version’.
If the forr is not eaten while hot, it hardens to a quarter of the hardness of the ’Nuclear Pasta’ in the Layer Abyss once it cools down.
The latter contains a divine aura strong enough to annihilate an Iota Rank Purgatory Earl.
If not for the fact that Leoz doesn’t like vegetables, lia Nana’s specialty, ’Quick-Fried Celestial Spinach’, would be even more terrifying, able to randomly create giant trees large enough to cover a star when tossed in so deserts of the Layer Abyss.
Here, casually pick up a toothpick, if not processed by the Narrative Civilization, throwing it in the Layer Abyss would cause a severe calamity.
Of course, in reality, due to the issue of buoyant curses, there are bound to be a lot of curse effects.
At the very least, in the Border Abyss, this is just a breakfast that even small royal families can enjoy.
Leoz eats with great gusto. The Half-Heaven Realm creature lia Nana is very close to high [Charm] beings and is especially fond of Leoz. No matter how picky he is, lia Nana will forgive his disrespect for vegetables.
—And then next ti, trick him into eating them by wrapping them in at.
No wonder celestial beings are so simple and kind, even lying is done so gently.
One doesn’t need to say much about the taste of the food; in his more than ten years of gourt experience, lia’s cooking is definitely top-tier.
He was eating so happily that when the door opened silently and a dignified woman sat down across the long table, holding one cheek with her hand, quietly watching him enjoy his al for a full ten minutes, he didn’t notice at all.
And when Leoz noticed this, he happened to be in the midst of battle with the stewed oxtail, stuffing the aromatic at into his mouth, then casually raised his eyes—his gaze directly eting a pair of deep black eyes devoid of pupils and whites.
At that mont, even the icy void couldn’t make Leoz shiver, yet he suddenly felt a rushing chill engulfing him like rolling waves, unstoppable, akin to a sharp steel bar piercing straight from the top of his head to the tip of his toes.
"Is it tasty?"
She asked calmly.
For so reason, the imminent sense of chaos in the air dissipated instantly with the dignified aunt’s words.
Leoz glanced at his aunt, then lowered his head, carefully chewing the oxtail until it was swallowed, finally showing a satisfied expression, responding to his aunt with a bright smile:
"—It’s delicious! Aunt, what lia Nana cooked is really fragrant! The carefully selected minotaur, said to have harassed many bitter bamboo monsters, has very tender at, not to ntion, eating it feels particularly refreshing, as if even the stale air in my lungs is expelled!"
The milk-voiced childish sound fell into Aunt rston’s ears without causing any reaction.
"Mm..."
Aunt rston’s lips smirked slightly, then she picked up the lava coffee, taking a gentle sip, saying:
"I was worried you wouldn’t get used to it; lia used to follow in vanquishing void disasters, and most Border Abyss lads can’t handle the flavor of her cooking."
"No, I love all the dishes lia Nana makes! I like lia Nana the most!"
Leoz’s innocent words imdiately made Aunt rston stern, and she put down the coffee cup, saying plainly:
"Then, do you like lia Nana or your aunt?"
Like a hamr settling the matter, as soon as rston finished speaking, the air nearly solidified, the laws of spaceti under pure murderous intent seed as fragile as a tin foil, with a little force, the second hand could be turned back or forward dozens of rounds.
But Leoz remained oblivious, his azure-blue, brilliant eyes facing Aunt rston’s pressure, rely spoke innocently:
"I like both lia Nana and Aunt, you’re both my family!"
The next mont, the chaotic spaceti instantly returned to normal, only within the hundreds of square ters of the dining room, suddenly turning into an overgrown area.
As if within those short two sentences... the entire dining room had experienced thousands of years.
In those thousands of years a mont’s strength, tiles and steel had decomposed, and a multitude of plants covered every corner of the dining hall, completely losing all traces of having once been a royal dining room, appearing as rely a cold green desert.
Splash.
rston gently lifted the lava coffee, took a sip, then revealed a gentle smile:
"Oh my, our Leoz really knows how to talk. You’re so adorable and sensible, definitely a good Monarch! You’re so vexing, your aunt will have to kill a few Dukes and Kings for you in the future to get you so lands and people."
Even though the System was no longer working due to Pathway integration, Leoz could imagine purely through conjecture what exactly happened just now.
[You perford a ’performance act’ on ’Lord Ao Sha’ rston aid at getting the other party to believe your words and stabilize emotions.]
[Charm check passed, 1D20, great success!]
[You achieved charm crushing!]
[’Lord Ao Sha’ rston abandoned the intention to kill ’Heavenly Demon Chef’ lia Chef.]
[Hint: ’Lord Ao Sha’ rston’s desire to attack surrounding countries such as the Mowenrete Empire, Asleja rchant Kingdom... among 21 others has increased.]
[’Lord Ao Sha’ rston favorability 20]
[Current favorability: 187 (love)]
——It has to be like this.
Leoz was not in a hurry, Aunt rston’s reaction was completely within his expectation range.
Instead, he began to seriously scrutinize his aunt.
After all, being a maternal relative, their genes are similar, their face shapes and features are very delicate and beautiful.
Although Aunt rston is over four hundred years old, she maintains herself very well, as a Demigod, her figure still matches that of a young person, not so much for her lingering charms, but more of a generous elegance.
Her jet-black hair was coiled up, fixed with a void serpent bone hairpin, adding to her mature lady deanor a sense of elderly presence, yet ironically her appearance was so youthful, not like soone over thirty. Combined with the ceramic-like skin characteristic of demigods, she exuded various odd, discordant vibes.
However, when she’s quiet, she still looks very pretty, especially her eyes, since they lacked whites and pupils, the completely black eyes appeared so gentle and approachable.
"Leoz, today you turned one year old. Since it’s your birthday, Aunt didn’t get too hands-on today, only killing 211 unfaithful, unrighteous, unkind, unfilial, uncompassionate, unbeautiful, unpleasant people, and 985 malicious monstrosities that intruded into my sight, ensuring blood did not taint the auspicious day."
Aunt rston said with a smile:
"Aunt’s return today was in a rush, didn’t get you any gifts, Aunt failed her duty as a guardian."
Leoz smiled broadly, greeting her with a bright face: "It’s alright, Aunt, just having you back here for a al with makes very happy."
"Leoz...my adorable child, how can you be so cute and sensible?"
Aunt’s face turned slightly red, hitting her chest, quickly blaming herself:
"No, I must get my precious nephew sothing. Since you’ve lost your mom, more should also lose their mothers, experiencing your pain too! After the al, Aunt will go kill so mothers of a few young boys and girls!"
——What a joke, even a demigod doesn’t act so crazily.
Leoz quickly put on a disappointed face:
"Alas, but, Aunt, won’t you stay and spend the birthday with ?"
’Oh, my dear, how could Aunt abandon you.’
"I want Aunt to stay with , don’t go today!"
"Alright, alright... Aunt will stay with you all day."
——Children of the Border Abyss, damn well thank !
