Chapter 941 Mini Quest

"A-Ah, hi!" Brisingra greeted Mercedes happily.

"Welcome, come in. Ah, you guys are quite a sizable group, huh?" Laughed Mercedes, as she let us all inside. "Well, thankfully our house's large. The entire city has to be big and wide so the dragons can walk and transform comfortably too."

"I see how it is…" I nodded. "So, why did you call us here?"

"They didn't tell you?" Mercedes asked. "Well, in resume, we've got a new mission and we wanted to invite you guys as well. You're getting a portion of our pay, of course. You'll work as bodyguards and also to help us look for clues and stuff. Any insight would be valuable."

"Sure! I'm all for it if I am getting paid." Rita nodded.

"Hahaha, you're similar to Cecilia." Mercedes laughed.

Thats what I said.

"Hm?"

Mercedes noticed that Brisingra was watching at her in silence, her eyes shining brightly. She was really just silently admiring her.

"Dear, you're watching me for a while now…" Mercedes blushed a bit. "Do I have something in my face?"

"N-No, sorry." Brisingra apologized. "I am just amazed to see you, Lady Mercedes. You're… Err, a very famous researchers where I live."

"I-Is that so?" Mercedes was a bit confused, but didn't pursued the situation. "Anyways, Elbedo, Hermes, Cecilia! They're here! Is breakfast done yet?"

"Almost!" Elbedo said.

"Don't believe this bastard, he hasn't cooked anything yet!" Hermes complained.

"Well if you helped things would be much easier, Hermes! You're just sitting there reading a book! Move and do something else!" The dragon complained.

"You two men are so loud, I will just eat an apple or something." Cecilia sighed. "Ah, hey!" She waved her hand at us.

"Oh, if its food what you wanted, we haven't had breakfast ourselves. How about I cook something for everyone?" I asked with a smile.

"Oh yeah! Mom's cooking is the best, I swear!" Said my daughter.

"Lady Planta's cooking is indeed the very best." Nodded Elisa.

"It's tasty." Monica agreed.

"I tasted it once and I am already in love with her cooking, indeed." Greenie said.

"Yep! She cooks the best." Anna agreed.

"Well! Looks like those younglings are quite confident in your cooking, Planta." Mercedes said. "Can you help us cook something?"

"Of course, leave it to me!" I nodded. "I'll need a bit of help though. Mark, Rita, Lily, come with me too! Nieve as well. Let's make some ice cream while we are at it."

"Okay, let's cook something tasty." Mark nodded. "Even if this is a dungeon or something."

"We get to rest for three hours, so lets enjoy them~" Rita yawned.

"Yeah!" Lily agreed. "Elayne can you cook something savory? Too many sweets tire me a bit."

"Alright, I'll make some eggs with bacon for starters. Also let's bake some bread too." I nodded. "Oh, how about we make a pizza while we are at it? I got a lot of ingredients."

"S-Sure… but milady, am I only useful for making ice cream?" Nieve looked slightly depressed.

"Of course not! I mean, your ice is really good for that though." I told her. "Come on, you also love it."

"…I certainly do." She nodded.

As we started cooking, the rest of the party explored the house and talked with the four researchers. Everything was so realistic that it didn't even feel like a recreation of the dungeon. Some of us even speculating it might be some sort of travel in time shenanigan, or a parallel world sort of thing.

But I was able to notice the clues from the get-go already. Perhaps due to my growing affinity with the Dream Element, and after receiving a sort of Blessing from the Gods of Dreams and Nightmares. This entire thing was but a fabrication, a very realistic one.

And it could even be said these NPC were living dream beings, unaware of their own existences, until the dream itself ends. It is quite tragic, but it also offers insight to the mast. This entire Dungeon is made out of a Fragment of the World's Memories after all.

And as I was thinking about that…

Ding!

[Time Limit]: [Same Time Limit as the Break Time Limit.]

Oh, one triggered right away! Seems easy enough.

"So you must be Planta, huh? We had a little time to talk yesterday, but wow, your cooking is incredible. Are you making eggs and… meat? I've never seen this before." Elbedo praised my cooking. "It smells amazing."

He situated himself right at my side. His muscular and handsome appearance made me blush slightly. He was very attractive. Was this a natural attraction between dragons or something?! Wait, no! Why am I even feeling this way? He's just an illusion! Calm down, my horny mind!

"A-Ah, yes, I am cooking scrambled eggs with bacon." I explained to him. "What were you going to cook, Elbedo?"Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

"I was planning on just toasting some bread with roasted meat chunks and some garlic sauce…" He laughed apologetically. "It seems you have many more ingredients and recipes I've never seen before though!"

"Hey golden scales, watch out from touching my girlfriend." Mark warned Elbedo who was getting a bit too close.

"E-Eh? Ah, my bad. I had no idea. I am sorry, I didn't intend any of that." Laughed the dragon. "I might not look like this in this form, but I am a rather old man, older than everyone here. I already have a mate and children."

"Is that so? Mark! Don't be so jealous." I told him.

"S-Sorry, I just got somehow scared." He said.

"A-Ah… Oh well." I laughed a bit at that.

Yeah, I mean, I did think a few things myself, but I am a loyal girlfriend!
