After I am finished with my breakfast and have taken a morning bath, I wear my school uniform, then put the Moemon Egg that is still happily staying in the corner of my bedroom while absorbing the world energy back to the System Inventory.
If The Egg have already developed a consciousness, it may be thinking of something like this: ."...!? Dude, can't you see that I am still absorbing nutrients here!? Do you want me to hatch quickly or not!?" ππ₯π£
I then go out of my house, locking all of the doors and wait for Chikane while tending my Berry Plants in the yard (I sprinkled some water on it to make sure that their soil is nice and wet).
It's been only one night and I can sense the life force of the planted berries are already condensed and have begun to be growing up.
I think it won't be too long before I can see their sprouts growing out from the soil.
After Chikane comes picking me up with her sedan car, our school day goes on as yesterday.
Picking up Kiseki on our way to school, I and the driver are sitting quietly in the front while Kiseki and Chikane enjoy their time together on the back seat.
Then the three of us attended the class together, study and listening to teacher's lessons like what a good student should be, then have dinner together on school break.
The three of us are coming to the same gazebo in the school garden as yesterday and enjoyed our lunch box.
This time, while Kiseki and Chikane have their usual bento box with staple Japanese meals, I bring a 3 in 1 rantang filled with rice on the first container, rendang on the second container and fruit slices on the third container on top.
Kiseki and Chikane both gives a curious look on my enamel rantang, it seems it's the first time they see someone bring that kind of container for their lunch.
"Uhmmm.... Ranata-kun, what's that?" Kiseki asked me curiously.
"Oh, first time seeing this? This is called Rantang, a traditional food container from my place that is usually made from enamel or stainless steel and consisted of three to four round containers that can be stacked as one." I answered her while separating the containers from their stack holder and opened the containers one by one.
"And what is that black pieces of meat? Although they seemed to be overcooked, but they all smelled good." Chikane also questioned me when she sees the pieces of meat that is being dipped in thick, browny black sauce.
"This is called Rendang. They're some pieces of meat that are being dipped in a thick, brownish black savory sweet sauce made from coconut milk and many other seasonings and then being cooked over and over until the sauce seeped so deep within the meat. Here, you can try one piece first and see if it's to your liking." I explained my rendang to Chikane while taking two pieces of meat with my chopsticks and placed it one each on top of Kiseki and Chikane's rice.
"Uhmmm~!!!! Uhmmm~! This is very delicious~ nom ~ nom ~ nom ~ " Kiseki make a delighted expression on her beautiful foxy face when she took a bite of my meat while munching on her rice.
Somehow, rather than a fox, she looks more like a squirrel or a hamster with her cute cheeks getting a bulge from stuffing a lot of her rice into her delicate mouth.
Kiseki is currently munching on a lot of rice in her attempt to balance the explosion of the savory sauced flavour from my meat that is being bursting out furiously inside of her small mouth when she took a bite out of the shining black meat.
Her eyes are twinkling like stars in the middle of the night, clearly showing her delightfulness as she have a taste of my delicious meat.
Meanwhile Chikane also have her eyes lit up like a Gund*m that is starting to reboot when she took a bite of my meat while stuffing the rice elegantly into the gap in between her lips non stop like a river water that flows non stop from the upstream to the downstream.
Her cold beauty face seems to have been warmed up as she relished on the rich flavor of my meat.
And deep within her bright golden eyes, I can see clearly the yearning and craving for my deliciousΒ
meat hidden behind it.
"How is it? Delicious, right?" I asked the girls as I see their delighted expression.
"Uhm~ uhm~ yesh~ Ranata-kun's meat is very delicious~! I like it very much!" Kiseki innocently said such a sentence with a lewd wording filled with innuendo.
"It's good. Not bad. And Kiseki, please mind your words. Such a thing will likely caused misunderstanding if heard by the others." Chikane nodded her head coolly and give my meat her approval before she is gently reminding Kiseki to watch her mouth and mind her words.
Hey, your smile of delight for me only lasted for a split second before you change back your expression to that of indifference.
But when you're talking to Kiseki, you immediately showed a gentle smile like what a loving sister would be without the end in sight.
Sigh....Β
Well, leave aside Kiseki with her innuendo out of her small mouth with an innocent face, the fact that even the Cold Princess Chikane finally smiled to me every then and now showed that at least she have become a bit closer now than when we first meet, right.
It's not me being over confidence or narcissistic.
You look at her young butler who always volunteered to be her private driver.
Even though they should be close as they practically live under the same roof (Saegusa mansion also includes the living quarters for their servants and apparently, the young butler who is still single), but I have never seen Chikane giving out her smile to her butler even once.
Not in the anime, not in the novel, and also not in this world until now.

Author's Note:
At first I planned this Novel to be of an Isekai Action Fantasy Genre but somehow this chapter make this novel feels like a work from a Slice of Life Genre instead π
What will all those school life and picnic and description of food π π±π€£
Well, you can expect some action later on their after-school when they're going out of town for adventure again.
By the way, at the moment when I write this Chapter on 22:44 GMT+8, our family's Queen of the Night (Vijaya Kusuma in Indonesian) have blossomed again for the fourth (or maybe the fifth?) time since we bought it on August last year π₯°πΌπ
The white cacti flower looks so good and soothing.
By the way, I guess the myth that the Queen of the Night only blooms once every a thousand night is a fake, it's only one year and our flower have blooming four times, with one to three flowers in one occasion.
And that too, when we don't even give it any special fertilizer aside from the water we have collected after we washed our rice in the morning.
Or maybe the Queen of the Night which we bought is already cultured and genetically engineered to be flowering more often than the original ones in nature?
I am not too sure, is there anybody here who also kept a Queen of the Night at their house?
