The Demon's Menu-Chapter 1133: Milk Tea X Belief! (2)
Ryosuke couldn’t help but roll his eyes, grumbling inwardly.
But the two present completely ignored Ryosuke and continued their conversation as if nothing happened.
"I want the items on you."
Jason continued.
"Which one?"
Hanakaiin Itsuki asked.
"All of them!"
Jason said confidently.
"All of them?"
Hanakaiin Itsuki pondered.
Seeing Hanakaiin Itsuki’s expression, Ryosuke was at a loss for words.
Are you really considering it?
Is milk tea that important to you?
Were you a milk tea spirit reincarnated in your past life?
No!
Wrong!
In this life, you are milk tea that has transformed into a human.
"Then what can you offer me?"
"I’ve put my stakes on the table, what about you?"
"Betting requires fairness."
Hanakaiin Itsuki said.
"Of course!"
"I’ll bet with you on..."
"A life."
Jason said in an unprecedentedly serious tone.
He emphasized the pronunciation.
Especially on ’a life’!
He’s actually betting a life!
Yes, a life!
He currently has about 923+ lives, so using one as a wager is reasonable.
He’s not deceiving anyone.
He really would give Hanakaiin Itsuki ’a life’.
But Ryosuke, beside him, didn’t know.
"Jason!"
The middle-aged officer exclaimed.
He wanted to stop Jason.
The current situation was beyond imagination.
How did it turn from a cup of milk tea to wagering lives?
A life and death incident sparked by a cup of milk tea?
This is too absurd.
Ryosuke wanted to stop Jason, but Hanakaiin Itsuki’s gaze at Jason changed.
No longer cold.
But a warm gaze emerged.
With a faint warmth.
"I thought I was the only one who considered milk tea to be as vital as life, but I didn’t expect you to too—you’re even willing to bet your life with me, then I’ll accompany you to the end."
"I swear by the name of Hanakaiin Itsuki, I’ll bet all the items on me!"
"If I lose, they’re all yours."
"If I win, your life belongs to me."
Saying that, Hanakaiin Itsuki formed the ’Kikkō-in’.
"Hmm."
"However, it’s not just milk tea; I feel that way about all food."
"In this world, only food and time cannot be let down."
Jason corrected him.
Hanakaiin Itsuki thought about it for a moment, then nodded.
Then, the young Onmyoji headed to the counter, ready to personally make milk tea.
Would the milk tea shop owner or staff try to stop him?
No, they wouldn’t.
Just a while ago, when Hanakaiin Itsuki proposed the wager, the young Onmyoji had already bought the milk tea shop.
Simply put, this place now belonged to Hanakaiin Itsuki.
Jason cooperatively turned his back, no longer looking in the direction of the counter.
"Jason, you’re too impulsive!"
"How can you..."
"It’s worth it."
Ryosuke tried to persuade Jason, but Jason’s single response left him speechless.
Then, the middle-aged officer walked to the counter.
He needed to keep an eye on Hanakaiin Itsuki.
He was worried that Hanakaiin Itsuki would play some trick.
Hanakaiin Itsuki looked at the approaching Ryosuke and coldly snorted in his heart.
In other matters, he didn’t mind playing little tricks.
But with milk tea, he wouldn’t disgrace the only warm place in his heart.
Unconsciously, Hanakaiin Itsuki glanced at the man with his back to him.
This kind of trust and attitude was something he was seeing for the first time.
If only this person could be his partner, how great would that be?
Why can’t he become my partner?
As long as I win this bet, Jason can become my partner!
As for Sunny?
What is that anyway.
What does it have to do with him?
This guy who can’t even tell the different kinds of milk tea, how does he deserve such a good partner?
Thinking of this, Hanakaiin Itsuki was filled with motivation and started working.
With a dazzling and artistic flair, Hanakaiin Itsuki began making the milk teas.
And it wasn’t one-by-one.
It was ten at a time.
Standing aside, Ryosuke couldn’t figure out how it was completed in the end.
When ten cups of milk tea were placed on the table in front of Jason, he turned around.
"After the bet, can I have them?"
Jason asked.
If the wager meant wasting ten cups of milk tea, Jason would feel a bit regretful. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
Hanakaiin Itsuki shared a similar sentiment.
Understanding Jason’s intention from his words, Hanakaiin Itsuki laughed.
"Of course."
"Shall we start?"
"Start!"
"Half sugar pearls, full sugar red beans, double sugar coconut jelly, triple sugar mixed fruits, no sugar extra milk, black and white milk tea, jasmine milk tea, caramel pudding milk tea, lemon sago milk tea with... a bit of strawberry juice, quite a creative idea, and lastly, black tea milk tea also with mixed fruits and coconut juice, should be quite tasty."
Jason began describing the milk teas from left to right.
A look of surprise flashed in Hanakaiin Itsuki’s eyes.
Not a single mistake
Especially he managed to identify two specially crafted cups.
Was he peeking?
Hanakaiin Itsuki wondered, but then shook his head.
Although he was making milk tea, he was constantly watching Jason.
Jason didn’t turn around, nor did he use any Onmyoji techniques.
Did he really identify them just by smell?
In the end, Hanakaiin Itsuki came to this conclusion.
Quite unbelievable.
But the fact remained.
"Whew."
"I concede."
Hanakaiin Itsuki admitted defeat gracefully.
Having faced reality, handling it with arguments and sophistry was not Hanakaiin Itsuki’s style, and moreover, when it came to something as significant as milk tea, he wouldn’t let his actions disgrace the faith he held in his heart.
