Chapter 932: Beach Cook Off
Chapter 932: Beach Cook Off
(MC POV)
Putting aside Manami's really fluffy tail that I had the time of my life fluffing, that was the most stressful massage I've ever had.
I never knew Manami and Iris were so at odds against each other and for a reason so… Well… I wouldn't say minor but still…
At least it ended without bloodshed and I managed to spend a good half an hour wrapped up in Manami's fluffy tails while I fluffed her.
She did bargain an additional alone session with me to mate with her though, something I had no problems agreeing to.
Totally worth it.
And that brings me to the next pair I would be spending my time with today.
"Ehehehe~ Aniue~ Your best little sister is here!"
"Good afternoon, Master. We'll be in your care!"
"Oh yeah! Time for us ta' partayyyyy!"
"Quiet…"
"This one humbly requests that you not embarrass us any more."
Yeah… About that… It seems like Eris had split herself into her four different personalities, but since Tsuki wasn't saying anything about it, I didn't either.
Then again, Tsuki mighthave decided not to care about anything else since she's busy rubbing her face on my chest while purring like a kitten.
Ignoring my little sister for the moment, I turned to look at the four swordswomen in front of me.
"Right… Do I need to ask what we're planning to do today?"
Eris grinned and gestured to where five tables were being laid out by the youkai maids.
"We're going to have a beach cook off!"
Ok, I honestly didn't see that coming.
Just a very quick reminder, everyone here is still in their swimsuits with Eris and her personalities wearing the same design of a two piece bikini albeit with different colours.
I guess Eris and her other personalities must have been feeling quite left out as it has been quite a while since we've cooked together, thus they want us to cook together once again.
At least, that was what I thought she had in mind until I realised there were only four sets of cooking appliances being prepared. The last table was left empty but it was also the only one that had two chairs placed side by side.
Bait pumped her fist, "Alright!! Dis' time we're gonna settle dis' once and fer' all who da' better chef is!! Master's gonna judge our cookin'!!"
"Hmph! I've already said this so many times, but Master definitely prefers mine!" Eris proclaimed boldly.
Denna raised her hand, "It is this one's humble opinion that Master will prefer this one's cooking."
"Incorrect… Me…" Laverna muttered, not looking bothered by the other three.
"Then let's settle this with our best dishes! May the best chef win!" Eris exclaimed before running towards one of the stations, prompting the other three to do so as well.
On the other hand, Alpha came up to me and bowed her head, "Master, we have prepared your seats for you and Mistress Tsuki."
Ok… At least they already have things prepared so I don't think I need to be worried about anything? Honestly, as long as the girls aren't fighting with one another, it's good enough for me.
Yes, the session with Iris and Manami had lowered my standards by that much.
Both my little sister and I were thus led to the needlessly elaborate table that was most certainly carried down to the beach from the resort itself. I wanted to ask why couldn't we just have this cook off within the resort's kitchens instead of making one on the beach but decided not to question it.
Tsuki took the seat beside me and we both settled down to watch the four personalities of Eris preparing their dishes.
From here, I could see that Eris was most probably preparing something seafood related judging by the variety of fish she had laid out in front of her. I suspect that she had gone out to sea to catch those herself early in the morning too.
On the other hand, a giant slab of meat hanging on a hook was wheeled in by Bait, who expertly started to cut it into pieces with her sword without hesitation. I believe that meat should be beef judging by its shape.
I can't really tell what Laverna was making but she does have a pretty big oven behind her and she was already heating it up while buttering some pans. If I had to guess, she might be making some kind of dessert?
Denna was also cooking something meat related judging by the duck she had on hand. I have a feeling it wouldn't be something as simple as roast duck though, knowing what kind of dishes they would usually make.
Again, I have to say this, but all of them are doing this while wearing nothing but bikinis. None of them were even wearing aprons, but I guess even if boiling oil were to splash on them they wouldn't have been hurt anyway.
You know, I never actually thought about it… But now that I'm looking at it happening in front of me… I suppose it would make sense that Eris could cook up such diverse and delicious dishes on her own since it really is four people cooking in one body.
It looks like the different personalities also have their own unique tastes and whenever Eris was cooking, she would let the personalities take over in making the various different meals she was serving.
Though it's true that too many cooks spoil the broth, it works for her since they came from the same person and knew each other's specialty like their own. Thus, enabling them to come up with dishes that complement each other's.
While I was still contemplating this, I felt a nudge at my side, causing me to turn and face Tsuki who was puffing her cheeks at me cutely.
"Mou Aniue… I'm bored…"
I chuckled at her, "Ahaha, aren't you interested in their cooking?"
"Unnn… It's not Aniue cooking for me… Aniue has always been the one to cook back then and I hate to admit it, but I never learned to cook because of Aniue… So I'm not really interested."
Ah, that's right. I had multiple lives to work on my cooking skills so I had spoiled Tsuki rotten with it. It was to the point that she found no reason to even try and cook for herself since nothing could beat whatever I fed her.
Before I could come up with an answer, she had gotten up from her seat and plopped herself right on top of my lap with a smug face, leaning her back on my chest.
I'm pretty sure the way she grinded her hips a few times on me was not an accident either.
"Ehehehe~ This should be the best seat for the best little sister in the Universe! And there's no one else here to tell me otherwise!" She giggled.
I smiled wryly at her, "Is there no way that you can get along with Elaria at all?"
Tsuki snorted, "I don't hate her, but I will never concede the title of best little sister to that upstart wannabe! I am Aniue's first little sister! Naturally I should be the best!"
I'm not even sure how that logic works but at least they seem to have accepted the fact that I could have more than one little sister now.
I reached up and patted her head, causing Tsuki to squirm cutely before turning her head to look at me.
"Aniue… Can you hold me?"
"What's this all of a sudden?"
She poked her fingers together, "You used to do that with me… Could you do it again?"
No reason to say no so I hugged her from behind, letting her settle into my embrace with a sigh of content.
Yep… This is nice.
Four beautiful girls cooking something delicious for me while I spoil my little sister on my lap, definitely no complaints about this arrangement.
