“You’re welcome,” answered Yabemiya with a smile. She went off to serve someone else.
Lucia spooned some tofu pudding into her mouth. She closed her eyes with a smile as the soft food melted.
She wanted to savor every bite since she only got to have one bowl each meal.
Gloria looked at Lucia, and then at the white bowl before her. It was made of fine porcelain, much better than the ones on the market. There was only one set of bowls in her house that could compete with this one.
Gloria picked up her spoon. The syrup on the top was giving off a sweet smell, tickling her nose. The white tofu pudding with golden-red syrup was basically a work of art.
Her spoon cut through the food easily. The syrup slowly streamed down into the hole she had just made, while the tofu pudding shook mildly in the spoon.
Gloria hesitated for a while before lifting her veil up and bringing the food into her mouth. She had done it so carefully that no freckles had been revealed.
The tofu pudding melted in her mouth almost instantly, and the syrup completed it. The sweetness spread on her tongue, stimulating her taste buds.
Gloria took another bite, and then another, and another…
She smiled. The normally cold girl was smiling out of happiness because of the food.
Now, she felt that this trip was well worth her time whether the food could cure her freckles or not.
Lucia smiled as Gloria scarfed down her food. She took her time with hers.
Gloria’s spoon clattered in the bowl. She lifted her head. “Whew, it’s so tasty! Can I have one more bowl?” she asked Lucia.

He turned me down when I offered to pay 10 times the price yesterday, and he turned down two powerful magic casters’ request for a second helping.” She turned to look at Amy, and added, “No one is allowed to eat two bowls except her.”
Suddenly, her left cheek felt cool as if being iced. Her eyes widened.
“It’s cool, isn’t it?” Lucia asked softly.
Gloria nodded vigorously. “Yes!” she answered in an excited voice.
Lucia held her hand. “Don’t worry. It’s a sign that the skin is being repaired. It will last about 10 minutes.” Her arms and chest were also feeling cool now.
“Okay,” Gloria said, looking at Lucia. She was trying to calm herself down, but the thought of finally being able to get rid of her nightmare was making her heart pump with excitement.
“Your Yangzhou fried rice, please enjoy,” Yabemiya said, putting down two plates before them and taking the empty bowls away.
