Multiverse Anime, I Write Honkai Impact in Daily Life

After returning to the villa, the girls immediately sat down on the living room sofa. Luo Yu heard the noise and came out of his room, seeing the girls already chattering away.

"You're back already?"

Upon seeing Luo Yu, Yui Hirasawa's eyes lit up as she said, "Luo Luo, let me tell you, we met Erina when we were bathing! We even became good friends, and she said she's coming to our villa to play tomorrow!" It was just like a child eager to share a secret.

So they actually met Erina.

Luo Yu hadn't expected the girls to bump into Erina at the bathhouse. But it wasn't a big deal.

Seeing that the girls didn't seem to have any other plans, Luo Yu told them to get some rest and went back to his room.

Once Luo Yu returned to his room, the girls stopped lingering on the first floor and disturbing him, heading up to the second floor instead. Of course, they weren't planning to go to bed; their nightlife was just about to begin.

***

The next morning, Luo Yu was already sitting on the sofa in the main hall, waiting for the others. He didn't have to wait long before Mio Akiyama and Tsumugi Kotobuki came down from the second floor, each dragging someone along.

The atmosphere was quite harmonious, as the three who were awake each had someone still half-asleep with them.

Luo Yu had Mashiro, Mio Akiyama had Ritsu Tainaka, and Tsumugi Kotobuki had Yui Hirasawa.

Ritsu Tainaka rubbed her groggy eyes and yawned, "Why are we up so early? I'm still half asleep."

"If you don't want to eat breakfast, you can go back to sleep," Luo Yu said without thinking. He knew that Ritsu Tainaka and Yui Hirasawa would never pass up an opportunity for good food.

As expected, after Luo Yu said that, not only Ritsu Tainaka but also Yui Hirasawa immediately woke up.

Luo Yu shook his head. The will of foodies is truly strong. If it were me, I might actually give up breakfast to sleep in.

After a simple breakfast, Luo Yu and the others returned to the villa. Since Erina had said she would come today, the girls decided not to go out and instead wait for her at the villa.

They didn't have to wait long. After finishing their morning evaluations, Erina arrived at the villa.

Not only that, but she also brought many ingredients for Luo Yu and the girls, along with her little secretary, Hisako. It looked like they were here either to stake their claim or to challenge them to a cooking battle (Shokugeki).

Seeing Erina and her secretary arrive, Luo Yu greeted them, "Welcome, Erina. Oh, Secretary Ko, you're here too."

"How many times do I have to say it, call me Hisako! Lord Luo Yu!" Hisako was on the verge of despair. He's definitely messing with me, right? Why can't he ever get my name right?

At this moment, Ritsu Tainaka, with great foresight, took some of the ingredients from Erina and Hisako.

She walked over to Luo Yu, handed him the ingredients, and said, "I'll leave these to you, Luo Yu. You'll cook later."

Hearing Ritsu Tainaka's words and looking at the ingredients Erina had brought, Luo Yu knew without a doubt that these girls had planned this together long ago.

Luo Yu frowned and asked Erina, "So, are you planning to challenge me to a Shokugeki?"

To his surprise, Erina shook her head and said, "I just want to taste your cooking and see how big the gap is between us now."

Although she always claimed she would surpass Luo Yu, Erina was self-aware. She knew there was still a significant gap between her and Luo Yu. Since the Light Music Club girls had asked her last night to bring ingredients to cook today, she had taken the opportunity. She decided to casually drop by for a meal cooked by Luo Yu and see how much she had improved compared to him.

The other girls from the Light Music Club looked at Luo Yu with expectant eyes. Luo Yu thought for a moment and no longer refused.

Seeing Luo Yu agree to cook, the girls became extremely excited. After all, they hadn't eaten Luo Yu's cooking in a long time.

Even though they had eaten many delicious meals here these past two days, none of them compared to Luo Yu's cooking. But Luo Yu hadn't cooked in so long, so of course, they were thrilled to have this chance.

Seeing that Erina had no intention of a Shokugeki and that it was almost time for lunch, Luo Yu said no more, picked up the ingredients, and walked directly into the kitchen.

As Luo Yu entered the kitchen, Erina and Hisako quickly followed with the ingredients they were holding.

After putting down their ingredients in the kitchen, the two showed no signs of leaving.

Luo Yu didn't mind them staying. If they want to watch, let them. It doesn't affect me anyway.

He opened the bag of ingredients that had been delivered later and couldn't help but twitch his lips when he saw the contents. Many of the ingredients were high-grade, some even too rare to be found in any market outside.

It seems Erina hasn't changed at all, Luo Yu thought, glancing at Erina out of the corner of his eye.

Fine, high-grade ingredients it is. It's not like I don't know how to cook them. It'll just take a bit more effort now. He had originally planned to just whip up a couple of dishes like Steamed Black Carp or Steamed Shrimp Heads to get by, but now he had to use some of his real skills.

Seeing a lot of high-quality steaks among the ingredients, Luo Yu decided that steak would be the main course for lunch.

After casually preparing some side dishes, Luo Yu began to cook the main course: the steaks.

For this lunch, Luo Yu put in five-tenths of his effort and used three-tenths of his strength.

The result was that Erina and Hisako were left stunned.

Chapter 77: I, Luo Yu, Also Know How to Use Potions

Inside the kitchen, Luo Yu continued his fluid movements, completely unaware of the profound shock he was causing Erina and Hisako.

Erina gritted her teeth. She had to admit that the gap between her and Luo Yu was growing wider. It seemed that not only she, but Luo Yu was also improving.

It hadn't been this obvious before, but now, as Luo Yu cooked, every movement was so natural, as if the entire kitchen was under his command.

The aroma wafting from the kitchen also attracted the girls outside. Luo Yu didn't notice them, as the cooking was nearing completion.

Luo Yu seared all the steaks to medium-rare, then quickly plated them with the prepared side dishes and covered them.

After finishing the cooking, just as he was about to ask the girls to help him bring the dishes to the table, Luo Yu turned around and saw several figures crowded at the doorway.

Yui Hirasawa was particularly noticeable, as her mouth was already watering. Luo Yu could only shake his head helplessly at the sight.

He called the girls to help him carry the dishes to the dining table. After all, it was a meal for several people, and Luo Yu couldn't carry it all by himself.

Upon hearing Luo Yu's request, the girls eagerly stepped forward to help, with Yui Hirasawa leading the charge, looking incredibly impatient.

After everyone brought the steaks to the dining table, they couldn't wait to sit down and start eating with their knives and forks.

The moment the lids were opened, the girls seemed to see a flash of light.

"I think I saw the steak glow!"

It's a special effect, I added a special effect!

Of course, this couldn't possibly be a glowing dish. Luo Yu's current skill level wasn't enough to create one. But if he wanted to make people see an illusion, Luo Yu could manage.

With a light slice of the sharp steak knife, the steak was cut open. Picking up a piece with his fork, Erina observed it carefully.

After looking twice, Erina couldn't find any fault with it. This steak was simply perfect. Moreover, the aroma kept teasing her tongue, and her God Tongue was constantly sending signals to her brain to eat it.

Yielding to her body's desires, Erina put the piece of steak into her mouth. With a gentle bite, the meat juices overflowed.

The steak itself was incredibly tender and smooth, yet it had a satisfying chew.

After swallowing the beef, Erina's mouth involuntarily let out a moan. Her legs clamped together and began to rub against each other. Her eyes became hazy, filled with a misty sheen.

Seeing Erina's extreme reaction, the girls who were about to let their guests eat first quickly put down their knives and forks, looking at their own steaks with fear.

They had seen Erina react like this before, but wasn't this reaction a bit too much?

Besides, they had eaten Luo Yu's cooking before, and it had never caused such a reaction!

The girls then cast suspicious glances at Luo Yu.

Did you really drug it?

Luo Yu saw the question in their gazes.

Luo Yu shook his head, indicating he wasn't that kind of person.

Receiving Luo Yu's assurance, coupled with their trust in him, the girls also began to eat their steaks.

The result was, naturally, a chorus of moans, and the entire dining table fell into a strange atmosphere.

But don't worry, this isn't an orgy; it's just lunchtime. Believe it or not, I believe it.

Luo Yu smiled triumphantly at the girls' performance. They were on the set of Food Wars! right now, so how could his cooking not have a little something extra? Wasn't practicing his controllable "drugging" techniques precisely for situations like this?

As for telling the girls he hadn't drugged it earlier, Luo Yu felt he hadn't added anything like pink petals to the dish, nor had he added any computer parts!

If they insisted on arguing that Luo Yu's cooking was too delicious and that was a form of "drugging," then Luo Yu could only say, "Don't play if you don't like it."

Before long, the girls had all sobered up. Mio Akiyama, remembering her reaction just now, immediately blushed beet red and started searching for a hole in the ground to crawl into.

The other girls also had lingering after-effects to varying degrees, their faces flushed, their cheeks rosy, and their gazes towards Luo Yu filled with a deep resentment.

Luo Yu, meanwhile, calmly ate his own steak. The moment the girls sobered up, Luo Yu's triumphant smile disappeared.

Don't you understand the value of expression management? With this acting, Luo Yu believed he could easily beat those young idols from his past life.

The girls also knew that Luo Yu hadn't added any computer parts or anything similar. It was just that his cooking was too delicious.

Now they were conflicted. Deliciousness was right in front of them, but eating it would cause such a peculiar reaction. Most importantly, even knowing about the special reaction, they still wanted to eat it!

Erina, however, wasn't as conflicted as the girls from the Light Music Club. Without a second thought, she continued to cut her steak and put it in her mouth. All she wanted now was to finish this steak.

Her mind was filled only with eating, eating, eating. She hoped that by finishing this dish, she could find its flaws.

To her disappointment, her God Tongue not only couldn't find any flaws in the dish but also seemed to recognize the familiar taste, constantly sending her the command to keep eating. Only after she finished the entire dish did her God Tongue finally emit a feeling of satisfaction.

Hey, you're my God Tongue! Don't surrender to his cooking just like that. You couldn't even satisfy me with my own cooking usually, so why are you satisfied now! Where are the flaws in this dish?

But her God Tongue didn't respond to her expectations. After its satisfaction, it clocked out, much like many people who leave work exactly on time.

However, if there were any flaws, there were indeed some. But Erina couldn't point them out. Because those issues were related to the ingredients, and the ingredients were brought by her. Luo Yu had even solved many of the problems with the ingredients.

Unable to find fault, Erina stopped dwelling on it. She picked up a napkin, wiped her mouth, and then, with a flushed face, walked towards the restroom, as she could barely hold on any longer.

Seeing Erina's action, the other girls also blushed. They all knew what Erina was going to do.

Involuntarily, the girls began to look at Luo Yu with resentful eyes again.

Even under their stares, Luo Yu remained calm. He even wondered if the amount of computer parts he'd added this time was off and if he should control it better next time.

This person isn't reflecting at all!

After Erina came out, the girls took turns to "resolve the issue."

After finishing lunch, the girls began to tidy up the tableware.

As for Luo Yu, he had already gone off to rest. Well, the person who cooked always had the upper hand! He refused to wash the dishes!

Chapter 78: The Girls' First Time

After that, the group had a good time at the resort for two days. Erina also came over to play whenever she had free time.

But all good things must come to an end. When Luo Yu called for the driver, the girls packed their luggage and embarked on their journey home.

On the way back, Luo Yu had originally planned to take the girls home one by one. However, Ritsu Tainaka proposed wanting to visit Luo Yu's home midway.

Hearing this, the other girls also became interested and looked at Luo Yu with expectant eyes. Luo Yu didn't refuse. He simply instructed the driver to go back to his parents' house first.

Ritsu Tainaka was a little confused by this and asked, "Luo Yu, we wanted to see the house where you and Mashiro live. Why do you need to go back to your aunt and uncle's place?"

"There are two little ones over there too. I have to bring them along." Luo Yu wouldn't forget that Chocolate and Vanilla were still with his mother.

Two little ones? The girls were confused, but when they asked Luo Yu, he just smiled without explaining.

The girls let it go, deciding they'd find out when the time came.

After a long journey, the driver brought Luo Yu and the others to the entrance of the Luo Family estate.

Luo Yu got out of the car, holding Mashiro's hand. He noticed the girls were still sitting in the car. "What, are you planning to wait in the car for me to come back?" he said. "You've been sitting for so long, why not get out and get some fresh air?"

Hearing Luo Yu's words, the girls followed him out of the car. Standing at the grand entrance of the Luo Family estate, everyone except Tsumugi Kotobuki looked astonished at the sheer size of the place.

"It's... it's so big!"

Yui Hirasawa exclaimed.

Ritsu Tainaka and Mio Akiyama also stared at Luo Yu. Although they knew he was the Young Master of the Luo Family and that they were wealthy, their poverty had limited their imaginations.

Just look at the Luo Family estate before them; it was practically a manor! The mansions they'd seen on television paled in comparison.

"Don't just stand there gawking, come on in."

Luo Yu spoke and then led the way. The girls instinctively followed behind him.

Tsumugi Kotobuki sidled up to Luo Yu. "Luo Yu, Uncle Luo and Aunt Luo should be home now, right?" she asked.

"I'm not sure about Dad, but Mom is definitely home," Luo Yu replied after a moment's thought, giving a more reliable answer.

"We're here. Welcome to my home," Luo Yu said as he pushed open the main gate and gestured for the girls to enter.
