Chapter 256: Ereshkigal Logs On
"Delicious! What is this at?"
At Kenji’s invitation, "Ishtar" joined in on the al. Compared to the god-beloved Ishtar, Ereshkigal’s domain was in the underworld, where there were no delicacies to enjoy. Even Ishtar had surely never eaten this.
"Sun Jewel at. It’s at captured from a mammoth the size of the sun," Kenji explained simply with a faint smile.
"An exaggerated size! This king has never seen such a mammoth. Sun Jewel at... a well-deserved na," Gilgash said in praise.
The other world Kenji ca from must be very exciting, to have such astonishing ingredients. The divine beasts he had seen were nothing compared to the size of a sun. He didn’t know that the Cosmic Mammoths traveled in herds; there wasn’t just one.
"How much more do you have? This king will buy it all," Gilgash said with a grand wave of his hand. The Most Ancient King was preparing to unleash his ever-victorious power of whaling.
"Goldie, can your fortune buy a whole planet?" Kenji asked playfully, not answering whether he would sell it to him or not.
In his world, money was the most useless thing. With the Cosmic Mammoth’s Capture Level, its value was comparable to that of an entire planet.
Gilgash was taken aback. Before answering this question, another question had to be addressed first: what was the value of a planet? Could all the wealth in the world be equated to a single planet?
"Hand over your Sword of Rupture, and I’ll give you a whole Jewel at," Kenji joked.
"You’re daydreaming! You want this king’s Ea?" Gilgash rolled his eyes. This was like asking a man for his wife. Absolutely impossible. He did not want to experience the feeling of being NTR’d.
"That chef... your cooking skills are excellent. Would you like to be this king’s personal chef?" Gilgash asked, looking at Atashino. Although the ingredient itself was delicious, the role of the chef was indispensable.
"I am Kenji’s partner. I will not be changing jobs," Atashino said with a slight smile, rejecting the invitation.
"My king, you shouldn’t make such jokes," Siduri said helplessly, although Atashino’s cooking skills were indeed very good.
"This king was not joking. But if that’s the case, then forget it," Gilgash shook his head. The fine wine from another world... the taste was quite good, and the kick was really not small.
After three rounds of drinks, Gilgash left, continuing to work overti through the night, heading towards a death by overwork.
"So satisfying~"
"Ishtar" patted her stomach. It had been a long, long ti since she had feasted like this, and on such delicious food.
Kenji looked at "Ishtar’s" orange-red pupils. Ishtar’s eye color was crimson. At this mont, her brow revealed a kind of gentleness.
The little angel Eresh is online.
"What is it?"
"Could it be... you’ve had a change of heart and decided to choose ?"
"Ishtar" pulled at the cloth draped over her body. She was a little shy in Ishtar’s revealing outfit. She was completely unaware that her cover had already been blown and was just pretending to be Ishtar.
"My first choice is definitely Eresh."
"Ishtar’s" face reddened with embarrassnt. So direct. But joy welled up in her heart. Ahem. Seeing as you’ve chosen this goddess so steadfastly, I’ll give you special permission to call Eresh.
"I really don’t get it. That gloomy goddess who lives in the dark underworld... why would you choose her?" "Ishtar" said, feigning dissatisfaction. This was a wave of self-slander.
Kenji looked into her eyes and smiled without saying a word. This made Ereshkigal’s heart skip a beat. Could it be... he’s found out?
No, I’m just scaring myself. She was using Ishtar’s disguise right now. Kenji definitely wouldn’t be able to recognize her. Yes, that’s it.
"We’ll talk about it next ti. Goddess, do you need to provide you with a room?" Kenji said, withdrawing his gaze.
"...Fine. If the environnt is not good, I won’t be satisfied."
Atashino led "Ishtar" to a room. It wasn’t a hard bed, but a marshmallow bed that was as soft as a cloud. It looked very comfortable.
"?"
Seeing the bed before her, Ereshkigal was stunned. She had thought she would have to make do tonight, but she hadn’t expected this. So soft... it felt like it would be very comfortable to lie on.
"..."
Seeing Atashino leave, Ereshkigal looked left and right, then dived directly onto the soft marshmallow bed. It was as fluffy as a cloud and had a faint, sweet aroma that made one want to take a bite.
"Delicious..."
She took a small bite, and her eyes lit up. It was actually edible. What a happy feeling.
Her long, black hair was now dyed gold. She adjusted herself into a comfortable position. She would have a sweet dream tonight.
Atashino sat next to Kenji, took off her mask, revealing her delicate, fair, and rosy face, and leaned on his shoulder.
"Heehee, her acting isn’t very good."
Atashino had noticed so of the small details in Ereshkigal’s expression. It seed she was hiding it well, but in reality, it was full of holes.
"If it were Ishtar, she definitely wouldn’t have that kind of reaction," Kenji said.
"We should get so rest."
Atashino lay on the bed and hugged Kenji like a body pillow, her long, beautiful legs pressing against his. A faint smile graced her lips.
"Good night."
Kenji smiled slightly and slowly closed his eyes. A fragrant, soft body pillow... it was so comfortable to hold.
The next day.
Ishtar logged on. Looking at the unfamiliar room, she scratched her ssy hair.
Have I been kidnapped?
"Ereshkigal?!"
Her brain finally ca online. Ishtar clenched her fists. Now she didn’t have to suspect anyone else would do this. It was definitely that person using her body at night.
Aaaaaah...
That person wouldn’t have used her body to do sothing embarrassing, would she?
She stord out of the door, only to see Kenji and the others. The corner of her eye twitched wildly. Why is it you guys again?!
Ishtar was speechless. Was there so kind of inseparable, tangled fate between them?
"Ohayou! How did you sleep, Goddess Ishtar?" rlin waved his hand.
"Ohayou? No, it should be Sayonara!"
Ishtar flew away directly. She needed to find a place to calm down, and this was clearly not a suitable place.
"The idiot goddess is gone?"
Gilgash and Siduri just happened to see Ishtar and Maanna fly away. They knew that Eresh had logged off and Ishtar had logged on.
"Goldie, are you here to freeload?" Kenji asked with a smile. He was right on ti. One look and you knew he had tid it perfectly.
"This king is rely understanding the food culture of other worlds," Gilgash said flatly.
The affairs of a king... how can you call it freeloading? This is called discussing gourt culture. As a king, it is my duty.
See through it, but don’t say it. Kenji didn’t kick him out. Food, after being shared, had a different feeling when eaten.
