If You're Not Satisfied, I'll Pay Northern Europe a Visit

"Of course I called. I saw a lot of wild game on the way here, so I just grabbed some."

"You can hunt? I don't believe you. Just tell me you happened to come across a dead animal and brought it over."

Sayaka Kirasaka blurted it out completely subconsciously.

He then realized that his words had gone too far.

She was about to apologize when Mahiro's voice drifted over.

"Don't believe me? Fine, then don't eat it. You might get poisoned."

"Hmph, fine, I won't eat it then! I'll eat the coconut dish with Yukina greens!"

"Sayaka Kirasaka..."

Yukina looked at her best friend with some difficulty. She couldn't understand why her good friend always seemed to be at odds with her upperclassman.

Little did they know, this was simply Sayaka Kirasaka's habit.

She bares her fangs at anyone who tries to get close to Yukina, and she won't back down even if the opponent is Three Saints of the Lion King Agency.

Mahiro was also well aware of the deep affection between Sayaka Kirasaka and Yukina.

So he didn't say anything, and was even more too lazy to pay attention to this stubborn and arrogant girl.

After finding a flat stone slab and cleaning it with a cleaning spell, I placed it over the fire to roast.

Once it was heated to a certain temperature, he picked up a few slices of meat and threw them on top, spreading them out neatly in order.

Immediately, accompanied by sizzling sounds, the aroma of roasted meat gradually spread through the air.

The rich aroma had already made Sayaka Kirasaka's coconut tasteless, but when Mahiro took out seasonings from his ring and sprinkled them on, bringing out an even richer meaty fragrance, her stomach rumbled inappropriately.

"Hehe, hungry? Want to eat?" Sayaka Kirasaka with a teasing Mahiro on his face.

Sayaka, who had been secretly glancing at the grilled meat Sayaka Kirasaka of her eye, froze at his words, then took a big bite of the coconut meat in her hand and mumbled:

"I... I didn't!"

"Is that so? In that case, I won't leave any for you."

Mahiro took out a few more bowls and chopsticks and distributed them to Gada and Yukina, and then picked up two pieces of grilled meat and put them in their bowls.

Gada, on the other hand, ate the meat heartily without any restraint, praising how delicious it was and even saying that she wanted him to be her personal chef.

Mahiro ignored her, instead picking up another piece of meat and putting it into the Yukina's bowl, deliberately saying:

"Here's Yukina, hurry up and eat. You haven't eaten all day, you must be starving."

He deliberately emphasized the word "hungry," seemingly to provoke Sayaka Kirasaka.

But Yukina didn't notice. Looking at the grilled meat in her bowl, then at her best friend, she couldn't help but ask:

"Senior, could you share some with Sayaka Kirasaka?"

Upon hearing this, Yotsuba Mahiro an eyebrow and looked at Sayaka Kirasaka, who had her back to him, and said teasingly:

"Give it to her? Isn't she afraid of being poisoned?"

"Alright, senior, stop teasing Sayaka Kirasaka. She already knows she was wrong."

Yukina tried to speak up for Sayaka Kirasaka, but Mahiro remained relentless.

"Does he really know he's wrong? It doesn't seem like it..."

He put down the slices of meat he was about to place on the grill, a curious expression on his face.

This time, Yukina didn't speak, but instead focused her gaze on her best friend, seemingly waiting for her to say something.

However, Mahiro heard sobbing coming from Sayaka Kirasaka's side.

It wasn't that she was angry enough to cry; it sounded more like the aggrieved cry of an abandoned kitten.

Seeing this, Mahiro couldn't help but laugh, a very happy laugh, and then he said:

"Alright, alright, I forgive you. Come and eat, but remember, this time it's only because of the Yukina greens~"

Sayaka Kirasaka remained silent.

Perhaps it was because the barbecue smelled so good that she had completely lost her previous arrogance.

He simply turned around silently and sat down next to Yukina.

Yukina then took out a new bowl and chopsticks and handed them to her, saying softly:

"Actually, your senior was just teasing you. He prepared your bowl and chopsticks early this morning. Look."

Sayaka Kirasaka stared blankly at the clean bowl and chopsticks placed in her hands, a look of astonishment appearing in her eyes.

That despicable man actually prepared her tableware...

Thinking of this, Sayaka Kirasaka slowly raised her head to look at the man diagonally opposite her, but the moment their eyes met, she quickly turned her head away, a blush instantly spreading to the tips of her ears.

Whispered:

"Th-thank you... and I'm sorry about earlier, I didn't mean to..."

Unfortunately, the voice was too soft. Although Mahiro heard it, he couldn't help but tease him:

"What did you say? I didn't quite hear you."

"I didn't say anything! Damn it, you're just always bullying me!!!"

Sayaka Kirasaka's shouts immediately echoed through the mountains and forests.

As night gradually fell, the surrounding woods grew darker.

Although their picnic was coming to an end, the ever-burning fire and the aroma of roasted meat continued to linger and spread outwards.

Meanwhile, a clump of grass in the forest rustled without any wind.

"Rustle..."

The sound coming from the bushes alerted Yukina Jiang.

She gripped the Schneewaltzer tightly and shouted, "Is anyone there!"

"Don't make a fuss, it might just be a stray cat."

Gada spoke without a care, then took a piece of roasted meat from the fire pit under the stone slab and tore it apart with gusto, showing absolutely no ladylike demeanor.

"But... but there's no way there could be a kitten on a deserted island, I need to check," Yukina said hesitantly.

Before she could finish speaking, a "meow" sound came from the bushes.

It's very pleasant to hear, like birds in a tree.

Yukina was taken aback. There really were kittens on the island?

"Hmm, it's probably not a kitten, maybe it's a puppy. A kitten wouldn't make that much noise in the grass."

This time it was Mahiro who spoke, adding dry twigs to the stone stove, his tone somewhat casual.

The flickering firelight illuminated his face, revealing a playful smile.

But his words puzzled Sayaka Kirasaka. She had clearly heard a cat meowing; if it was a dog, how could it be making cat-like noises?

The next second, another dog barked from the bushes.

This caused Sayaka Kirasaka and Yukina to exchange a glance, their eyes widening slightly.

They were a little confused.

But Mahiro, who knew the truth, had no intention of letting the other party off so easily, and continued:

"No, it seems I guessed wrong. If it were a dog, it would have rushed out by the smell of meat. Could it be a herbivorous sheep?"

The words were finished.

As if in response to Mahiro's words, a bleating sound came from the bushes.

"Hey, is it really a sheep?"

Yukina was easily startled, and her mind was in complete chaos due to Yotsuba Mahiro's guidance.

Sayaka Kirasaka was feeling drowsy and her mind wasn't quite processing what she'd eaten, having eaten too much in one go.

Gada, standing to the side, almost burst out laughing.

How could this girl be so naive? She actually believed that?

Some even doubted why the Lion King Agency would send such an innocent girl to this man's side. Weren't they afraid of her being completely devoured and left with nothing?

Oh, even Koyomi Himgari, the foremost of the Three Saints, has been completely devoured.

That's alright then.

But Mahiro didn't stop teasing, and continued in a low voice:

"Yes, that's true. But sheep can't see at night, so perhaps I'm wrong again. It must be the wolf. After all, wolves are afraid of fire, so they don't dare to come out."

"Ugh..."

I don't know how many times they changed the sound, but the wolf's howl was still imitated perfectly, only the voice had a girl's charm, making it very cute.

Mahiro suppressed a laugh and continued speaking to Yukina and Sayaka Kirasaka:

"Right, wolves are supposed to be pack animals, so it shouldn't be just one howling. If it's acting alone, it's most likely a tiger."

"Ugh... I can't take it anymore!"

A frantic, gentle voice came from behind a nearby tree, and she burst out of the bushes.

With her silver hair and deep blue eyes, and unlike the typical refined features of Japan, the girl was so beautiful that she could almost be mistaken for a goddess.

She looks about 70-80% like Kanon Kanase, but she's a size bigger than Kanon Kanase, like Kanon Kanase's older sister.

Although the other person did not look like a soldier at all, they were wearing a Western-style suit that resembled a military honor guard uniform and lace-up boots.

This person should be La Furia Lihavain, the Mahiro target of this trip.

When Sayaka Kirasaka was completely stunned and speechless for a long time.

"Why did you stop pretending? Why did you finally come out?"

Mahiro couldn't help but laugh out loud, finding it very amusing.

I was just joking, I didn't expect her to actually mimic it.

"So you already knew all along, and you were just playing me for a fool?" The girl was furious, her azure eyes glaring fiercely at Mahiro.

"Who told you to be so naive? Most people wouldn't fall for that."

Mahiro laughed, his mind filled with the image of La Folia hiding in the bushes, racking her brains to come up with a cute way of imitating animal sounds.

Most importantly, the two silly girls next to him actually believed it!

Yukina, who had been kept in the dark, suddenly realized what was going on and looked at Mahiro with a hint of reproach.

That senior is so mischievous! How could he bully a girl like that? And I wonder what his relationship with Kanon Kanase is.

Chapter 385 If I'm not convinced, I'll go to Northern Europe for a visit (5.1K)

"This princess will not easily forgive your rude behavior. Are you even a man?"

"Why don't you try and see if he's a man or not?"

La Freya was speechless, choked by his vulgar remarks.

Perhaps the barbecue was too delicious, because the princess abandoned her composure and plopped down opposite Yotsuba Mahiro in a fit of self-pity.

He snatched Yotsuba Mahiro's bowl and chopsticks, and without any manners, picked up the slices of meat that Yotsuba Mahiro had just grilled and stuffed them into his own mouth.

Just by looking at the way she ate, you could tell she was starving.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have been lured by the aroma of the barbecue and squatted in the bushes to peek.

Yotsuba Mahiro knew this perfectly well, so he didn't say anything. Instead, he took out a new pair of chopsticks, picked up a slice of raw meat, and placed it on the stove.

"Um... what's your relationship with Kanon Kanase?"

Yukina had never met La Fria before and thought the silver-haired girl in front of her was a stranded person who had been stranded on a deserted island.

But seeing that she looked six or seven points similar to Kanase Kanon, he couldn't help but ask.

At this moment, Sayaka Kirasaka had come to her senses, and her lips trembled slightly as she uttered the silver-haired girl's name.
