Chapter 133
Seeing Tatsumaki sitting in her chair without moving an inch, Mineo felt a wave of confusion wash over him.
"Weren't you the one who wanted to go home? Hurry up and get going!"
"I still have business to attend to here; I don't have time to keep entertaining you!"
"I..."
Tatsumaki hesitated for a long time. She desperately wanted to say that she knew she was wrong, but looking into Mineo's eyes, she ultimately didn't dare to utter the words in her heart.
With extreme caution, she glanced at Mineo and then ran toward the large doors. Before stepping out, seeing that Mineo still hadn't made a move, Tatsumaki asked uncertainty:
"I push the door, walk out, and... I'm really allowed to go home?"
"You... you aren't lying to me, are you!"
"Why would I lie to you? Rest assured, I have no interest in that flat body of yours. If you want to leave, leave now. Or do you want to stay here and celebrate the New Year?"
In all her life, the thing Tatsumaki hated most was being called a little girl or having people make an issue out of her physique.
In the past, anyone brave enough to say such things would have been taught a harsh lesson with her Psychokinesis. But now, facing a cruel demon king like Mineo, Tatsumaki could only choose to surrender by force.
Carrying a mountain of resentment in her heart, Tatsumaki pushed open the restaurant door and cautiously stepped outside. In the next second, her body was enveloped in a multicolored light, and she quickly vanished from the spot.
Right at the moment Tatsumaki left, a mechanical voice from the system rang out in Mineo's mind.
[Ding... Congratulations to the Host for successfully hosting a guest: Tatsumaki!]
[The Host will extract one ability from the guest hosted this time!]
[Ding, congratulations to the Host for successfully extracting from this customer: Psychokinesis!]
[Due to the customer's extremely low satisfaction level with their meal at your restaurant, the ability extracted this time will not be granted a level increase!]
[Ding... Congratulations to the Host for successfully obtaining: Psychokinesis Level 1.]
To be honest, from the moment he started attacking Tatsumaki, Mineo already felt that it might be difficult for Tatsumaki to have a satisfying dining experience at his restaurant this time.
However, even if he couldn't extract her ability at its maximum level, he wasn't going to spoil her at all. Anyone brave enough to cause a ruckus in his restaurant deserved a beating! And a mere beating wasn't enough; they had to be beaten until they cried!
After giving Tatsumaki's backside a good slapping, Mineo felt his mood become much more comfortable. Psychokinesis Level 1 was decent enough; he would just use it as it was.
With a slight flick of his mental will, the restaurant's large doors automatically swung shut. Then, Mineo walked over to Erina, who was standing dazed in her original spot, and reached out to pinch her soft cheek.
"The guest is gone. Are you still daydreaming?"
"Hey, little darling, come back to your senses!"
Hearing Mineo's words, Erina's face was instantly flooded with embarrassment, anger, and nervousness.
"You... you jerk, what are you saying!"
"Who... who are you calling little darling!"
"I... I didn't promise you anything! Don't go acting so self-righteous."
"Besides, Mineo, what exactly happened with that guest just now? Was she really... a special existence from another world?"
"That's right. The guest who just came is someone from the same world as one of my students. In their world, she's quite famous—it's just that she doesn't know me!"
"Initially, I had the good intention of calling her here to treat her to a meal. Who would have thought that crazy woman would have such high guard, even immediately thinking about destroying my shop! I really didn't want to spoil her, which is why I hit her. But Erina, you don't need to be afraid! I'm actually very gentle in my daily life. Look at me, I've pampered you quite a bit, haven't I..."
Seeing the look in Mineo's eyes, which didn't hide his affection for her at all, Erina's heart felt both nervous and shy!
"Mineo, you... can you stop talking nonsense!"
"I... I haven't promised you anything!"
"If you keep pestering me like this... I... I will..."
Before Erina could finish speaking, her small hand was already grasped by Mineo. Mineo looked into her eyes and said very seriously:
"I have never pestered you!"
"I told you before, from the moment we met, the fate between us had already begun."
"I noticed earlier, when we were in the ingredient warehouse, the look in your eyes didn't seem right."
"Are you worried that there will be a distance between you and me?"
"Erina, have you ever thought that actually, from the moment you met me, your fate has already completely changed."
"I'm the type who doesn't like to hide my true thoughts. If I like someone, I like them; if I don't, I don't."
"I've always believed that in this world, I am the most suitable person for you!"
"I also want to hold your hand and take you to enjoy the pleasures of life together."
"So, Erina, you can think about it carefully—do you want to officially date me?"
Hearing Mineo's words, Erina's mind shook violently. At this moment, in the depths of her heart, she felt incredibly panicked and chaotic. She hadn't expected Mineo to confess his feelings to her so directly and boldly.
Although she was very reluctant and didn't want to admit it, Erina knew that Mineo's shadow was already present in her heart. But, should she really agree to Mineo right here?
No, she couldn't!
This bastard must be lying to me. Just a moment ago, he even wanted to get his hands on Alice too. She absolutely could not be fooled by his words; this person is the number one playboy in the world!
Seeing Erina just standing there in silence, Mineo patted her shoulder.
"Alright, don't be too tense!"
"After all, matters of the heart require careful consideration!"
"I'm also not the type of person who forces others."
"So, as for when you'll answer me, Erina can decide that for herself!"
"At the very least, for now, we're still good friends, right?"
"Good friends?"
Hearing Mineo's words, Erina gritted her teeth. Someone who wants my body all day long can still be called a "good friend?" Mineo, can you not be so shameless?
