422: Chapter 2 Midnight Snack Rhapsody (Part 2) 422: Chapter 2 Midnight Snack Rhapsody (Part 2) The total expenditure amounts to 3800 Zero Island Coins, with only 2000 Zero Island Coins on hand.
Question: How should the 1800 Coin shortfall be covered?
This kindergarten-level math problem was a genuine challenge in the literal sense of the word for the present Demon and Illusion Moon Venerate.
Shiyu Ling casually drew a Spiritual Correspondence Rune to hide their discussion as she and her partner anxiously debated how to settle the bill.
“Aren’t you a Creator Realm Mage?” Gongsun Ce habitually suppressed his voice, “Use your invincible Dreamland to think of sothing.”
“My Creation Realm is a naive and beautiful fairy tale!” Shiyu Ling whispered secretly, “Which fairy tale ever ntions how much the protagonist spent on a al?”
“The princes in fairy tales are always decked out in gold and silver!
Just produce a gold coin.”
The Creator Realm Mage’s face was a picture of embarrassnt, “I’m a Brahma Mage not a Void Phase Mage!
Those gold coins would vanish with a bang after a while.”
“They turn back after midnight, right?
What, are you so kind of fairy godmother?”
“Cut it out, Cinderella.”
Cinderella?
Not that my hair is gray.
Besides, I am an adult male; if anything, I’m a gray swordsman.
“No, seriously, so people like Ming Guest can rebuild cities in a heartbeat.
Why can’t you conjure up so cash?”
Shiyu Ling glared at him sideways, “Specialization in one’s craft, ever heard of it?
We’re all high-risk Dragon Species; a little cat can easily roast at.
How co you can’t breathe out a fla?”
You’ve convinced .
“Speaking of which, I just rembered the egg tarts made by Kardesia…”
“That guy really has a knack for baking…” Shiyu Ling said nostalgically, “Speaking of which!”
Shiyu Ling waved her hand and, while the boss wasn’t looking, conjured a cream cake out of thin air.
“While I can’t conjure Zero Island Coins, sothing of this level is doable~”
The cake lay in what appeared to be an expensive porcelain plate, sliced into the common triangular shape.
The white cream on top crowned with a strawberry, and the neat cut revealed the hidden layers of chocolate shards and nuts.
From any angle, this was a delightful delicacy.
“He’s got skills.”
Gongsun Ce rubbed his hands with enthusiasm, his Netherworld Eyes confirming that this item was no illusion.
He scooped a piece with a wooden spoon to taste.
The sweet cream lted in his mouth, blending beautifully in a foreign duet with the soft cake base, the diverse ingredients enhancing the flavor, revealing tastes of chocolate, honey, and nuts.
This was the dreamy sweetness, a taste every child fantasized about!
Brimming with excitent from eating, the Superpower User joyfully swallowed the cake.
“Absolutely incredible—!”
But, there was no feeling of food going down his throat.
He smacked his lips, realizing the cake seed to have…
disappeared after he tasted it…
Gongsun Ce stiffly turned his head, looking at his partner who was barely holding back laughter.
“An, illusionary, cake?”
“Puhahahaha!” Shiyu Ling couldn’t contain her laughter, “Just like the water lilies you see when you invoke the Spiritual Image; they exist, but they’re kind of between reality and illusion, after all, it’s just an elusive dream.”
What a Creation Realm placebo!
“How co your Brahma Creation Realm carries traits of the Spiritual Image as well?”
“I am a Dual Phase Mage, you know, so the Spiritual Image Skill naturally has its influences,” Shiyu Ling asserted confidently.
I totally get it now.
In any case…
Gongsun Ce sharply pointed out the crux of the matter, “This ability is utterly useless for our current predicant.”
“…”
“Don’t fall silent!
Hey, use Ti Stop!
Go back and get so cash with Ti Stop!”
“I definitely won’t!” Shiyu Ling frantically exclaid, “Creating a realm to walk back for cash sounds utterly foolish!”
“You, a majestic Creator Realm Mage, getting scolded by the restaurant owner for forgetting your wallet sounds even dumber!”
“Then let’s call Lianyi to bring money.”
Gongsun Ce stared in disbelief.
“Are you kidding?
Sneaking out to eat without money, if everyone finds out about this, won’t both our faces be smashed?”
“Ah, dammit!”
Only now did Miss Shiyu realize the core issue, displaying the sa expression as her partner.
Indeed, the problem wasn’t about how to get the money…
but how to save face!
At the end of the day, joking carefree while outdoors was because outsiders’ opinions never mattered.
However, if a travel mishap was witnessed by acquaintances, it would beco material for long-term ridicule!
Gongsun Ce said with a doomsday-like expression, “Imagine, if Kardesia finds out what she’d say…”
“Shut up, we don’t want that kind of trouble!”
If they asked Shiyu Lianyi for help, his girlfriend would likely find out the truth.
Just the thought of Kardesia’s reaction upon knowing gave the pair of investigators a headache.
—No way, no way!
Gongsun Ce and Alice are ssing up so badly, ahahaha!
Sorry, it’s just too hilarious♪~ I should post this on the school forum later♪~
Just the thought made them shiver!
Absolutely not; even if soone irritating like Yan Qi mocked them, they couldn’t stand that fool Kardesia mocking their intellect!
Gongsun Ce pushed up his glasses and said in a stern tone, “Listen, Zero.
I’ve thought of two plans.
Plan A is to wait for another custor to co in, then I’ll try to exchange so money with electronic paynt…
if no custors co, we’ll go with Plan B, use Ti Stop to get the money.”
“Ugh!” Shiyu Ling grimaced, “Fine, we have ten minutes.
If no custor shows up, we’re going to lose face.”
