Chapter 35: Enjoy the Lunch
'Master, have I become a bad girl?' Vanessa is still at the table looking at her master with teary cat eyes.
'Aww... Don't be sad, I didn't scold you, really. I know you don't like strangers and neither do I. But don't hurt people in public. If it's like what happened earlier, you can tell me or just struggle to run away to me, okay?' Elysia gently stroked the white cat on the table and carried Vanessa to the sofa right next to her.
'So can I do it again?' Vanessa feels more at ease and looks to her master to be sure.
'You can do it, no one forbids you.'
Elysia is a bit strange with Vanessa still insisting on the topic of scratching other people, but Elysia just lets Vanessa do what she wants to do. If that didn't happen in public then that would be fine.
Vanessa grinned with her adorable cat face while looking at a human male figure who has a hidden agenda to her master.
"Wow! Miss, you are amazing you can heal my wounds in an instant! Are you already adept at using life magic?" Brian with his sparkling eyes exclaimed in admiration at the beautiful girl he was approaching.
"Life magic? I don't really know what you mean, I can heal because I can do it." Elysia tilted her head in confusion as if she was waiting for an explanation for something she didn't understand.
"Holy! You really don't know life magic?" Brian with a different level of surprise asked again to make sure while wondering where this beautiful girl came from.
Every human at the age of sixteen will awaken their magical energy and guarantee them to be able to use magic even with different aptitudes and compatibility.
If this beautiful girl doesn't know life magic but can use it freely then the only answer Brian can get is an innate talent, also this is extremely rare and precious.
Elysia doesn't understand the surprise from Brian and David who only show ridiculous expressions in silence. She felt that the earlier words were the cause.
"Forgive my ignorance, but I'm just about to enter the Deterry Academy of Magic." Elysia nodded gently at Brian's confirmation question.
"Oh! That's not a problem. So you're a freshman, huh? Then we'll be in the same year!" Somehow Brian was happy about this.
"That's amazing. To be honest, I don't know much about this magic academy, you seem to be so experienced. Can you share your experiences with this little girl?" Elysia clapped her hands together as if getting an idea while praising for an epiphany with pleading eyes.
She had no idea that two men sitting at the same table as her could seem experienced just because they failed to advance to the next grade this year.
One year ago when Brian and David first entered this academy, they were much less clueless than Elysia. Never mind using magic, they don't even know what kind of magic they can use.
Whereas the aristocrats from which they come will only teach their pride magic which has become a hereditary identity if their descendants succeed in advancing to second grade at a magic academy.
"It's easy for me, listen up. Life magic is magic that can control things from living things. Like the healing magic that you easily used just a moment ago. It belongs to the category of life magic which speeds up the healing process. But apparently, it is your innate talent, I didn't see a magic circle or a chant of yours. "
Brian explained proudly like a knowledgeable person even though until now he had not been taught any magic by his family.
"You have a broad knowledge. Then what about this academy?" Elysia praises once again for some information with a cute smile on her face.
Feeling that the beautiful and friendly aristocratic girl before him was unlike other aristocrat girls who were annoying and indifferent, Brian happily shared what was being asked in Elysia's excitement.
Until the dishes that Elysia ordered arrived, she had received some information from Brian and David who also joined in the conversation afterward regarding applicable custom, unwritten rules, and some things she needed to pay attention to as a new student at this most prestigious magic academy in the Human Continent.
"Young lady, this is your order. Oh? Are you with friends?" The waitress who had taken Elysia's order returned with a four-course meal and two drinks.
"Mr. Brian and Mr. David, you came here for lunch, right? Then let me bear your expenses and please order whatever you like as my gratitude for your earlier story." Elysia offers generously because the price of dishes in this restaurant is not that expensive.
"Ho? You can't do that. It's an honor for me to treat a beautiful girl like you. Maid, give me the menu book, I haven't ordered anything. And don't forget, the bill is borne by me." Brian is trying to impress Elysia with his manliness.
Elysia is a little confused, she is a maid or waitress and which one is correct, but she immediately threw away the nonsensical thoughts because she was trying to improve herself on Elena's suggestion.
The waitress snorted as she placed the dish on the table directly in front of Elysia before handing two menu books to these two absurd men.
Then Elysia carried Vanessa back to the table and shared the food and drink with the white cat who immediately ate it with gusto.
Not only was the waitress amazed at this, but Brian and David who were choosing dishes from the menu book also felt the same way about what they were seeing now.
A white cat can eat dishes with manners and drink politely even if it only uses its mouth and its little paw.
"She's amazing, right?" Elysia was pleased to see the astonished faces of the three of them. Then she clasped her hands in prayer before eating her meal and left them alone.
The three of them immediately returned from their astonishment and then the waitress took orders from Brian and David before leaving.
Brian and David can only watch Elysia and a white cat named Vanessa eating their meal with manners. While Elysia doesn't mind being seen that way because she doesn't think the two of them are dangerous, maybe more funny and goofy in cute costumes that only she can see.
Elena nodded with a smile in Elysia's Soul Realm as she folded her arms under her breasts. The progress from her suggestion had unexpected results and it got a lot better.
She looks at Elysia as if she is like a mother who has finally succeeded in teaching her daughter to walk for the first time. Great sense of satisfaction.
By the time Brian and David's dishes arrived, Elysia and Vanessa had finished their meal. When the two of them started eating their meal, Elysia was already wiping her mouth with a wet tissue.
"Mou~ you're smudged, Vanessa. Look at the leftovers in your mouth." Elysia put Vanessa on her lap to wipe Vanessa's mouth with the wet tissue that has been provided on the table.
Brian and David somehow felt happy and warm seeing the behavior of this beautiful girl who had not introduced her name with a white cat who obeyed and surrendered only to her master.
Vanessa always keeps threatening eyes at Brian or David who several times tried to pet her as if she was ready to scratch them which made the two of them confine their intention to pet this cute white cat who is also a bit fierce.
