Chapter 124: Syr Is Angry, and the Consequences Are Serious!
"Delicious! So delicious!"
At the Hostess of Fertility, there were already only a few customers left.
Although this should have been the peak dinner hour, one table in the shop was now covered with all kinds of expensive dishes.
And judging by the situation, it did not seem like the meal was anywhere close to ending.
Ethan knew that his goddess was angry.
But there was nothing he could do about it.
Another goddess had thrown herself into his arms.
What was he supposed to do?
(Ethan: Helpless. Truly helpless. My personal charm is just too strong~~~)
As for Paimon, she did not care about any of that.
Right now, she was eating to her heart's content.
All kinds of delicious food were disappearing into her little stomach.
Ethan also discovered that Paimon really seemed capable of drawing energy from food.
He did not know the exact reason.
However, as long as Paimon ate well, she did not need to rely on Ethan's magical energy to survive for a period of time.
As for how long she could last, that was still unknown.
"Ethan-kun, nya, just how did you make Syr angry?"
Just as Ethan was letting his mind wander, Anya came over.
Looking at the table full of food, she shamelessly picked up a portion and started eating as she spoke.
Because Ethan often came to the Hostess of Fertility, he had gradually become familiar with most of the waitresses here.
Especially Anya.
She was a cheerful little catgirl by nature, so after going back and forth a few times, she had become increasingly familiar with him.
"How would I know? Maybe it's because a goddess hugged me at the entrance earlier."
"A goddess hugged you?"
"Yeah. A drunk goddess. I don't know her, but she's a friend of Goddess Hephaestus."
"A friend of the Goddess of Smithing? Orario has a goddess like that, nya?"
In Orario, although Hephaestus had developed very well, there were very few people who could truly be called her "friends."
Let alone friends close enough for outsiders to notice.
"By the way, what is this little thing, nya?"
Anya did not comment on Ethan's "romantic encounter."
Instead, her attention fell on Paimon, who was busy devouring food beside him.
As the mascot of Genshin Impact, Paimon was absolutely a super-cute little creature.
There was no doubt about her charm.
Her cuteness index was simply maxed out.
"This is Paimon. She's my companion. Hey, Paimon, stop eating for a second and say hello."
Ethan called out to Paimon, who had buried herself in food.
With the way she was eating, no one would object if he called her a foodie.
"Hello, I'm Paimon~"
"Hello, I'm Anya, nya~"
"Anya-nya?"
"It's not Anya-nya. It's Anya, nya!"
"But isn't that just 'Anya-nya'?"
"No, it's—It's—It's—"
Because of her verbal tic, Anya suddenly had no idea how to explain it.
Then her gaze unconsciously fell on Ethan, who was watching the show.
Whenever something like this happened, everyone looked for Ethan.
That had practically become common sense.
"Paimon, it's 'Anya.' The 'nya' is just her verbal tic."
"Anya? That's a really nice name."
Looking at the catgirl in front of her, Paimon said that sincerely.
"What a cute little thing."
Girls, especially catgirls, had no resistance to cute things.
Anya immediately hugged Paimon and began rubbing against her over and over.
She looked exactly like a cat that had exposed its true nature.
"Anya, what are you doing?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded from behind her.
Anya, who had been "inhaling Paimon" just moments ago, instantly froze.
She stiffly turned her head and saw Syr standing there with a smile that was not quite a smile.
"N-Nothing~"
"Mama Mia is looking for you. Why are you running around again?"
"I got it~"
Looking at Syr, who seemed to have entered a "darkened" state, Anya did not dare touch this bad luck at all.
She put Paimon down, then immediately fled without hesitation, heading straight for the kitchen.
Compared to staying here, the kitchen was clearly a little safer.
Syr stared at Ethan.
Then she glanced at the "mountain" of food and realized that she might have gone a little too far tonight.
This much food did seem a bit excessive.
But who told her she had been angry just now?
And what truly made her angry was not that Ethan had been hugged by Hestia.
It was that after being hugged, he had shown no intention of refusing at all.
In fact, he had even looked like he was enjoying it.
What was that supposed to mean?
She was the one spending money to keep him.
Even if she had not 'eaten' him yet, since he was using her money, he should behave himself.
And he had done it right in front of the place where she worked.
Was he trying to provoke her?
Ethan had no idea that such a small matter had caused this whole chain of events.
"I'm truly sorry, Ethan-san. I seem to have brought you a little too much food. My memory really is terrible. I accidentally remembered the order wrong again."
"It's fine~"
One today's special, one serving of fruit, and one glass of rum.
Even if she remembered it wrong, there was no way it should have turned into this much food.
But since it had already happened, there was no point saying more.
It was better to behave.
Ethan took out a spatial ring.
It had a storage space of twenty cubic meters, and he directly stored all the food inside.
"Paimon, take this. This is all your emergency food supply."
"Got it~"
Syr did not understand Ethan's actions.
It was only a puppet-like creation.
Was it really worth investing a spatial ring into?
Paimon, however, did not care about any of that.
To her, food was her life.
So she threw all the food inside without hesitation, planning to eat it later when she got hungry.
This meal finally ended in such a "difficult" way.
The Hostess of Fertility also became restless because of Syr's actions.
However, with Anya at the lead, several of the girls had all started gossipping from the sidelines.
Had someone plucked the poster girl flower of their Hostess of Fertility?
"I wonder if Ethan-san is satisfied with tonight's 'service.'"
"Satisfied. Of course I'm satisfied~"
Anyone could tell he did not mean that from the bottom of his heart.
"Looks like Ethan-kun is completely under Syr's thumb. If they really get together, tsk, tsk, tsk~"
"Anya, you sound like you know a lot."
Not far away, Lunoire looked at Anya with a smile.
She was clearly still a maiden herself, yet she acted as if she had plenty of experience.
"Lunoire!"
Anya reacted as if someone had stepped on her cat tail.
Lunoire simply smiled and walked into the kitchen.
Before long, under Syr's "pressure," Ethan paid a large sum of valis.
It was nearly one hundred thousand valis.
One had to know that this was only a single meal.
That alone showed just how badly he had been scammed.
When he paid, even Mama Mia's gaze toward him changed slightly.
How many times had he already been scammed?
Yet this boy still acted like this.
Could he really have fallen for "Syr"?
