"What a delight! I still don't understand how it is possible that chefs at home don't reach this level even after being so proud of their work." Those types of comments had been heard for a while, and they belonged to an elegant woman who was genuinely enjoying the food she was now tasting. "Why doesn't he accept the invitation to go with me?"
"You shouldn't be so cruel, and I thought you had already forgotten that idea after failing in each attempt, plus Blaise was quite direct with his refusal." Another voice was heard at that moment in response to the previous question, due to its calm and attitude, anyone could tell that it was Marjorie, and her words were directed at Lynn so that she would forget any strange ideas.
What was happening now was easy to appreciate, the table that still remained on the second floor was now filled with some plates full of food, its aroma and presentation would make many begin to drool since everything looked delicious, further highlighting Lynn's comments.
The previous study session for Blake had taken a break because lunchtime had arrived, so, right at that moment, around the table were the figures of Blake, Lynn, and the granddaughter-grandmother duo enjoying that little moment.
[Eating skill, increased.]
'Well... I guess it was good that I didn't turn it down.' The whole situation was triggered when Marjorie said that it was good to take a break, especially since she was hungry, so she called Marian to go to the restaurant to order some food for everyone.
Hearing that, Blake was about to say that it wasn't necessary for him, especially since his rune energy was almost full, but he had no way to explain that, so he couldn't refuse Marjorie's kindness, and now that he saw his empty plate, he realized that he also enjoyed his food... But his gaze turned again, this time towards his light blue-haired friend since what she was doing caught his attention, although Blake was not the only one who paid attention to her.
"How many times have I told you not to waste food?!" Marjorie's angry voice filled the room this time.
"You know perfectly well that I hate tomatoes!" Marian did not remain silent once she noticed that her grandmother had discovered her.
"That's why you don't grow up, you silly girl!" A small argument began to form while Marjorie scolded Marian and she defended herself... Although each of their arguments was losing their meaning with every second.
And while that was happening, Lynn covered her mouth with her hand as if she were trying to stop herself from laughing, but she still couldn't do it, and, on the other hand, Blake had seen her plate again... Only this time with a small mountain of slices of tomato in it…
…
…
That whole situation ended without too many problems, everyone finished the food and felt satisfied, Marian got her way and said goodbye to go back to tending the pharmacy, so the topic that was present previously was remembered by Lynn once the table was clean again.
"Okay, can you summarize where we left off, Blake?"
"After you explained about the elf kingdom." Blake also refocused as he picked up the notebook he was using.
"That's right... I think we can finish that topic too, so we can start with the continents at once." Lynn was again arranging her own ideas, what came next was the most important thing according to her, and it would be very useful for Blake. "Which of them would you like to start with?"
"I guess it would be nice to start with Laguz." Blake didn't take long to give his answer, that is the continent he was on at the moment, so he would like to know a little more about it.
"I also had that idea in mind, so it's perfect as a start." Lynn once again took a dignified and elegant pose before speaking, she looked a little different this time, but her seriousness was only taken as concentration by Blake. "Generally speaking, the Laguz continent is the most diverse continent so to speak."
That description made Blake confused, but Lynn wasn't going to let that be her entire explanation.
"What I mean is that, unlike other continents, ours has the highest concentration of races living on it. From the humans in the villages, the Mer on the coasts, and the elves and dwarves living among them, that's why many say that Laguz is quite pleasant and peaceful, I think you can see that." Maybe Lynn said it all that's because Laguz was her homeland, but her words were not that exaggerated.
Blake could also have a similar opinion after enjoying his life in Sharance, but not everything was as simple as Lynn's explanation.
"But as I had said before, all this is what has been achieved in the present, all Futhark has its history, as does each of the territories that make it up, and although they all have their positive points, there are negative aspects in them... And it's up to you to figure them out." Blake didn't know how many times he had seen Lynn make a complicated expression, but he understood what she meant.
But as quickly as that feeling was generated, the atmosphere in the room returned to what it was when Lynn's voice was heard again.
"But let's leave that aside... As I was explaining to you, Laguz is a very beautiful continent, you can also say that its ecosystems are quite unique, you only need to focus on Sharance, you don't need to go far away and you will find forests, deserts, and frozen areas due to the large accumulation of runes." That also surprised Blake, he already knew about the forests and the desert, but he had not encountered any frozen areas or anything similar, which was enough to make him remember that there was still a lot he had to investigate, especially since he had never forgotten the situation of those orbs that he still needed to find... Although he didn't know if there were more of them.
