Chapter 314: Godly Food
Finally out of your den! Alex greeted Miles with a smile. Miles looked at Alex with a vibrant and neat appearance.
How can you look so healthy? I assumed you would walk out like a corpse. Val greeted him too. Miles shut himself into the forge for half a month without taking a step out. After he acquired all the ores, he melted and processed them to clear ores from their impurities. The rest was simple alloy creation. He only called his employees and had them melt the cores, while he forged item after another.
When he was finally done two nights ago, he came back to his villa and took a two hours long bath before sleeping for more than a day.
I had a beauty sleep. Miles smiled and walked towards the city.
Why did you call us here then? Val asked.
I sold all my items and acquired a decent amount of Merit points. I want to treat my friends. Miles said.
Oh, what kind of treatment? Alex asked with a smile.
Better not be cheap, Mil. Val also chipped in.
You will see now. Miles laughed and ran to the front. When they arrived in the city, he took them to a small dining place. Compared to the 5-star hotels and restaurants, this place had a dilapidated exterior. Although Alex and Val didnt say anything, they still were displeased with Miles's choice.
He ignored their wrinkled faces and opened the door. Eva, you in? Miles shouted as he walked in. Unlike him, Val and Alex were looking at the place with surprise carved on their faces. The interior of the place was so neat. The walls were nicely built with marbles, and tables were all carved from beautiful cherry trees. Their pinkish-red color was giving a sense of freshness to the room.
There was a small receiving desk at the side, allowing customers to talk with the owner. The place was small anyway, and tables were only a handful. By ordering food at the greeting desk, and choosing a table to sit at, it had a simple design.
After Miles shouted, a smiling woman walked from the kitchen to the greeting table. She was drying her hand to the pristine white apron she was wearing. Her blond hair was swaying with her movements, while her sky blue eyes were looking at the customers with smiles blooming in them. Her beautiful face was emphasized within the beautiful decor of the interior.
Miles. Eva greeted with an even brighter smile and looked at the duo behind him. And as promised, you brought friends.
Val and Alex. Miles introduced them. And Eva, owner of this dining and godly chef.
Hushh now. My abilities are not bad, but far from godly. Eva blushed as she dodged the praise.
Let my friend decide then. Miles laughed heartily.
Alright, that is a challenge. Eva fakely rolled up her sleeves and brought out three menus to pass them.
No need for a menu. Three specials please. Miles ordered and added, Why dont you make it four. The place seems empty.
Oh, that is very nice of you, but I have to make preparations. Eva sighed sadly.
Dont worry. We will help you after the meal. Miles smiled. After some persuasion, Eva finally accepted it. When they sat at the table, Val and Alex looked at Miles with questioning gazes. Alex asked, How did you meet? You look close.
Third day of seclusion, I realized I was too immersed in forging and suddenly felt a craving. I looked at the time and it was too late, but I had to eat something. I walked out of the forge and looked everywhere to no avail. It was only when I returned empty handed and with an emptier stomach that I collapsed in front of this place, but before I passed out I smelled a slight odor from this place. I thought I was hallucinating. The place looked ramshackle.
Then what happened? Val asked.
Eva opened the door as she heard a sound. When she opened the door, the smell filled my nose and rejuvenated me. I looked at her and said, FOOD, PLEASE!
She took me in and made a meal for me although she was about to call it for the night. Miles smiled as he thought that day. Although he was far from passing out, recounting dramatically felt better.
From that day onward, I came to this place to eat every day. Eva is one of the best cooks I have ever met. Miles finished his story. Eva also pushed a tray and brought four sets. And sat with them.
When Alex and Val tasted the soup, they felt like melting. They already had high expectations after Miles praised Eva generously, but it was still falling short. The soup tasted like heaven. Without them realizing, both started to eat their soups like hungry wolves.
Ehem. Miles coughed slightly to awaken them. Both looked at Miles with a blush on their faces. Evas laughing wasnt helping either.
After the food, Miles went back to help Eva with preparations. It wasnt his first time in the kitchen. He would help Eva when he needed a break and in those times they started to become friendly.
After eating, Miles revealed to all three that he would go to the capital for two weeks.
"I knew it! I knew the post was for you only. I was even trying to bet with people but after the last time no one accepts my bets anymore." Val exclaimed. "That pusi Milosh!"
"I still don't know what scares the Dean so much." Alex shook his head.
"Huh, you obviously never meet with Aunt Evelyn." Val giggled.
"Is she that scary?"
"Only when it comes to special days." Val started to explain while Miles ignored them and enjoyed his meal.
