The party was smooth sailing afterwards.
First the cake was presented.
Baked soft, like a sponge, but no butter.
Lots of dried fruits inside.
Even though it had a slightly bitter aftertaste, but the fruits sweetness covered it well.
I remember eating it at Asura Kingdom before.
During my 10th as well.
How nostalgic.
Is Eris doing well?
That girl is lively no matter what her circumstances.
But will she be married like me... Probably not.
If there's a guy that can handle her, he has my deepest respect.
I asked Lilia about the cake, and apparently it's a traditional snack of Asura Kingdom.
Prepared for every holiday.
But we never had it at Buina Village.
Seems like Paul hated it, so she never could make it then.
Likes, hates, that's Paul for you.
Sylphy learned how to make it this time, so she'll make more herself in the future.
Norn really enjoys the flavor, and I don't dislike it either.
But Aisha seems not particularly fond of it, trying to pick off the dried fruits and eating only the cake itself.
Lilia doesn't look very pleased, angrily telling her not to be picky, while saying "you remind me of your father" with a smile.
Aisha says playfully, [Onii-chan, help me eat this], but she caught the attention of Roxy's sweet tooth.
They probably will enjoy sharing with each other.
I watch with a light heart.
But Roxy seems to have a misunderstanding.
"Aisha-san. You don't realize how lucky you are. There are times when one gets so hungry that one has to even eat poisonous scorpions."
"Oh, ah, okay."
And the lecture begins.
Feels like Ghyslaine had said this as well.
Even I had to force myself to swallow some terrible meals during my time in the Magic Continent.
But I don't think I actually ate anything poisonous before.
I suppose I also have no clue how lucky I am.
"Don't waste any of your sweets. Treasure them."
"Okay."
