The pig bones used for the broth were reusable materials.
After making the broth, Zhao Bai carefully stored them away, not daring to waste a single bit.
Kiana was very satisfied with this free dinner, and without caring about the scalding heat, she picked up her chopsticks and dug in.
The gray-brown noodles were chewy, and the rich white soup was incredibly delicious.
“Zhao Boss, your skills are amazing; you truly are a master chef passed down through generations.” Zhao Bai humbly replied, “It’s all thanks to the ingredients and kitchenware; I myself am nothing special.
I merely present the original flavors of the food to the diners, making me a bit of a laughingstock.” After sending Kiana off, Zhao Bai returned to the kitchen to glance at the still steaming broth, feeling a bit regretful.
As he came out, he picked up a wooden plaque and eagerly took out a brush.
“Today’s special dish—Pig Bone Rich Broth Seafood Ramen.” After writing it, he still felt unsatisfied.
Zhao Bai pondered and picked up the brush again, adding the words “Boss weeps while giving a 10% discount” at the bottom, and drew a crying white-haired loli wearing a black headscarf, which at first glance bore a resemblance to Principal Theresa.
The students of Saint Freya all knew that the spokesperson for the Zhao family restaurant was Principal.
As the sign was hung up, the customer flow increased, and Zhao Bai began to put away his playful heart and gradually became busy.
For him, executing tasks was merely a small interlude in life; the most important thing was still running the restaurant.
To make up for the losses from not opening the shop during the day, Zhao Bai even surprisingly started a late-night snack business.
A large pot of broth had already run dry, and it wasn’t until eleven o’clock, when the moon was bright and the stars were few, that he dragged his weary body back to the dormitory.
There were still task reports waiting for him to complete.
And not just one, but two completely different reports; one to be submitted officially, and the other to be delivered personally to Principal Theresa, who would evaluate it herself.
Upon opening the door, he found Principal Theresa sleeping soundly on the sofa, her legs crossed in a rather unrefined manner, taking up most of the couch.
Zhao Bai could only move a stool and sit in front of her.
“Snore—” “Principal, wake up!
I brought you some late-night snacks.” Theresa stirred at the sound, springing up like a carp leaping from the water.
Zhao Bai skillfully opened the bento box, set out chopsticks and napkins, and finally presented a steaming bowl of ramen, the broth a rich white, the cabbage a vibrant green, with shrimp and crab claws adding a delightful touch.
Theresa couldn’t wait to grab the chopsticks, but suddenly frowned, her petite nose twitching as she suspiciously asked, “This smell…
why does it seem oddly familiar?” Isn’t that the case?
Within Theresa’s body lies the gene of the Emperor-class Honkai Beast Vishnu, and the Emperor-class Honkai Beasts like Vishnu and Ganesha Parvati are all brothers.
The pork bones Zhao Bai used for the broth came from…
Zhao Bai felt a chill run down his spine and abandoned the thought.
In the end, the aroma overcame her doubts, and Theresa dug in heartily.
The takeout ramen had lost its boiling heat, becoming warm, with pale yellow oil floating on top, making it look a bit greasy, but Theresa finished it nonetheless.
“Compared to salty, I really prefer desserts.” After finishing her meal, Theresa’s expression suddenly turned serious.
She tugged at her skirt, trying to cover her fair thighs beneath it, making sure the color was not visible.
Sitting upright, with her legs together, her posture was very ladylike, a stark contrast to her earlier casual demeanor.
“Repeat the process of this mission.” Zhao Bai honestly recounted how he had pretended to be a big shot in front of the humanoid creature, tricking it into abandoning its human form and escaping in a more agile beast form.
“The Godfall Sword?” Theresa showed a puzzled expression and asked, “That weapon system is still in development; even I have only heard a little about it.
The Greatsword combined with the True Crimson Armor can rival a Herrscher in a short time.
How did you end up using it to fight monsters?” “I don’t know; it just came to me naturally.” Zhao Bai answered honestly, but fortunately, this wasn’t the first time such a situation had occurred.
He had even used Judah to fish in front of Theresa, which was as thrilling as facing an NTR scenario.
“I think I understand now.” Theresa lowered her head in contemplation, and after a moment, she raised it again, deciding to let the matter go.
If she hadn’t personally verified that Zhao Bai’s weapons were only effective against the ingredients he had in mind, even Theresa wouldn’t dare to keep him around.
With so many weapons in one person’s hands, causing destruction in this world wouldn’t be a difficult task.
That said, if the world were to be destroyed, who would Zhao Bai sell his dishes to?
“However, I have a medical report here.
Your chest, centered around the heart and lungs, has all twenty-four ribs fractured, some even broken into three pieces.
Did you get injured in battle?” “Yeah…
it was indeed a collision akin to that of an Emperor-class Honkai Beast.” Zhao Bai covered his chest in fear.
“Collision from an Emperor-class Honkai Beast?” Theresa tilted her head in confusion.
“That’s quite a rare occurrence.
I’m a bit curious to experience what an Emperor-class Honkai Beast’s collision feels like.” “Better not; Principal, your little frame can’t handle it.” “Hey!
For a moment there, did you just treat me like a child again?!” Zhao Bai raised his hands in surrender, wanting to drop the topic.
To be honest, while having all his ribs fractured sounded serious, it wasn’t actually a severe injury.
He just had to be careful not to sleep on his stomach for the next few months.
Zhao Bai didn’t mention that his ribs were broken by Kiana herself.
Although doing so might earn him compensation from the girl, the thought of Kiana paying him meant she wouldn’t come to the restaurant anymore.
Zhao Bai felt like something was missing.
In the pitch-black night, a rather mundane electronic task report was sent from the Eastern Branch to the headquarters.
The hand moving the mouse suddenly stopped.
It was a woman exuding elegance, wearing noble black lace gloves, a frilled maid outfit, form-fitting stockings, and her long legs crossed.
Her black high heels occasionally tapped the ground, making a sound like a drumbeat.
A scythe hung on the wall, entwined with vines and rose branches, dimly lit roses.
Rita Rossweisse.
The vice-captain of the Immortal Blades, and under normal circumstances, such a low-level task report wouldn’t reach her hands.
However, this Miss had a particular fondness for roses and often searched for this term on the Schicksal intranet, leading her to this report.
“A Honkai Beast with roses on its back, utterly hideous…” Seeing the images of the Honkai Beast after its death, Rita smiled and sighed, but suddenly noticed the wounds and the burn marks on the ground, which seemed somewhat familiar, prompting her to think of something astonishing.
“Seems a bit interesting?” She glanced again at the list of executors, which included Kiana Kaslana and a Shenzhou person named Zhao Bai.
Kiana was automatically ignored; Schicksal knew everything about her.
The important part was this Shenzhou person.
Rita continued her search and discovered that this Shenzhou person had a restaurant at Saint Freya Academy, with Principal Theresa as the brand image spokesperson.
Rita knew it was time to set off.
