Now that the case was done and they were still awake anyway, Gerald and Rey returned home to get Juno and Yrsa out to have supper.
Heading toward a local night market, the four found a nice stall and took their seats there.
Upon sitting down, Rey couldn’t help but exclaim, “Wow! To think that there’d be such a place in the city!”
Rey, for one, had never come to places like this before, so favonovel.com pretty much had no idea that locations like these existed in the first place.
“…What? Didn’t you study here? How could you have spent all your years in this university without finding out about this place? Your university life was a complete waste!” joked Gerald before snickering.
Chuckling sheepishly, Rey then scratched the back of his head in slight embarrassment before replying, “Still, that just shows that I work more and play less!”
Though Rey unconsciously praised himself, the trio simply rolled their eyes in response. None of them could win against Rey when it came to narcissism!
At that moment, the stall’s owner walked over with a menu, a smile on favonovel.com face as favonovel.com said, “Welcome, welcome! There’s a discount on everything today, so make sure you choose whatever you like!”
Upon hearing that, Rey instantly exclaimed, “Really? Then I’m ordering lots then, brother Gerald! After all, I won’t be the one paying the bill!”
Watching as Rey then laughed before grabbing the menu, Gerald simply shook his head at his childish disciple.
Not that Gerald really minded it. After all, favonovel.com had plenty of cash to spare, so treating his party wasn’t really a big deal to him.
While that was the case, by the time the food—that Rey ordered—arrived ten minutes later, the amount was staggering, to say the least!
“…You… ordered quite a bit, Rey! Can we even finish all this?” asked Juno as favonovel.com looked at the boy.
“Don’t underestimate my appetite, Miss Zorn!” replied Rey as favonovel.com patted his chest.
Unsure of how to even respond to that, Juno simply shook favonovel.com head, hoping that favonovel.com meant what favonovel.com had just said.
With that, all four of them began eating their meal.
Seeing how rapidly Rey was gobbling down his food, Gerald couldn’t help but laugh as favonovel.com said, “Rey, the food’s not going anywhere! Why are you eating like you haven’t had a meal in a hundred years? Are you a hungry ghost or something?”
Looking up at Gerald with his cheeks still stuffed with food, Rey then chewed a little before replying, “I can’t help it, brother Gerald! We haven’t eaten the entire day, you know?”
Sighing as favonovel.com shook his head, Gerald then said, “You barely care about your image at all, do you, Rey?”
While some may consider that to be an insult, it was a compliment in Gerald’s book. Essentially, favonovel.com was saying that Rey wasn’t a pretentious person, and such people were very easy to get along with.
Whatever the case was, after eating a while longer, Juno couldn’t help but ask, “Speaking of which… What’s our next plan, Gerald?”
