Volume 9 Chapter 38: Dessert Waves

“Gus. I’m sorry that I have to ask you to do this,” Keith stared at the chef. The two had gotten up extremely early to begin cooking. The look Gus had on his face said it all. 

“It’s fine, Boss. It wasn’t in your power to stop it.” It was impossible once they heard of this. There was no way to halt it; it was only a when. 

“...” True. Me and my big mouth. He had to stop zoning out.

“What do you need first?”

“The first thing is to make the baked goods; those take the longest. Also, we need to build the base for the cold things.” There were a lot of steps they were going to do today.

“Understood!” Gus cracked his neck.

“I’m going to work on slicing the fruits.” Fruit was the key for today.

...

Everyone had gotten up early. Hearing how Keith would prepare desserts for the meal made them unable to sleep.

“By the way, can someone explain to me what those snowballs are?” Violet questioned. There were four creatures with them. 

“Inti!” Leon was on one of them while Lily was on the other. 

“Oh, those are Keith’s familiars. They’re really close with Leon and Laura.” 

“...I see,“ When did he have such big familiars? Either way, Krystal seemed to get along with one of them. 

“Carolyn, what are you doing?” But there was something odd before them. 

Thalia and the others watched Carolyn running around the resting area a few minutes ago. It was quite weird since the kids watched her as well.

“Trying to make my stomach empty.”

“Eh?” Isn’t it already empty? We just woke up moments ago. 

“Since Keith said that we’ll be eating sweets for the next few hours, that means it will be a lot. And I need to have my stomach emptier so I can eat more.”

“...” Have you gone mad? 

“That’s exactly the right way of thinking, Carolyn!” Derek and Eric were jumping up and down beside her. They wanted to get some sweets as well. 

“Yay! Bigger stomach!” Leon and Laura followed; they got off the snowball and started to jump up and down like the princess. 

“Po!” Mir and the others started to do the same thing. Well, they circle themselves, trying to mimic the girls. It was pretty clumsy and cute. 

“...” Krystal was doing it, but she was hiding behind them, trying her best to be a shadow.

“…” William and Alvin sipped on their tea, trying their best not to stare at them. They were enjoying the espresso that was made from the machine. As they did, 

“Should we do so as well?” Sophia muttered. Violet and Thalia were sort of tempted. William almost choked on his drink. He would have been shocked if it weren’t for the fact that they were talking about sweets. 

A few minutes later, Gloria and Carter had brought something out.

“What did you bring for us?” A bunch of trollers were rolled in. 

“The young master had said that we would start with something with a light sweetness. Here is a fruit tart whipped with vanilla cream on the inside with mangoes, strawberries, and blue plums on the top.”

“So beautiful.” What caught everyone’s eyes was the colorfulness of the tart. Yellow, blue, and red were bright and pleasing to the eye.

“And what about the other two?”

“The young master said it was called a lemon posset.”

“And the last one?” The last one was made with a biscuit that was filled with red cream and strawberries.

“This one is a strawberry shortcake cream puff.”

“I see.” William nodded, “Let’s dig in.” And like so, everyone started to eat. The flavors from each one were so perfect and interesting as well. 

“Everything is so fruity,” Quite literally. All of the fruits were quite sweet, which was different from sugar. 

“The posset is elegant and fresh as well.” Lemon was quite an overpowering taste. It would make anyone’s mouth purse from the sourness. But Keith was able to lower it. 

“The cream puff is crunchy and nice!” Fira was munching on a cream puff. It was bigger than the little spirit’s face. Each snowball was munching on a whole tart by themselves. 

Carter then entered again, “The young master said to eat this first before starting on the second course.” What was brought out was cups of cold ice. 

“Understood,” William and the others ate it. That was when a gentle and lemony flavor.

“What is it for?” Why did they have to eat this before trying another? There was no need to answer this question, as William realized. 

“My taste feels normal again.” The things that they had eaten were not here anymore. It felt like their mouths were refreshed. 

That was when the second batch of food came out. The smell from this one was quite different from the ones brought out. The sweetness was much denser and stronger. 

“We have right here is a tiramisu. There’s also some truffles on the side as well.” Carter came in with a big cake. The others tilted their heads. They were quite interested now.  

“Delicious as well,” The others had a fruit sweetness to this. But this one had a sweet and savory note as it was incredible.  

“I prefer this to the tart,” This one had some bitter notes that complemented the sweetness. 

The girls grinned, “This is definitely something that has to be in the dessert store!” 

“Indeed,” The little spirit nodded to this.

“Po!” The snowballs chimed in as well.
