Chapter 707: Delicious Food
Chapter 707: Delicious Food
—–
Yggdrasil felt shocked after realizing her lack of emotions and her lack of humanity. She had become a being that lacked in all the things she admired the most of her mothers, a being emotionless and that only thought about a certain thing and nothing else, doing everything else just around this desire and goal… such a thing wasn’t necessarily bad, and it was certainly very good if that subject was protecting the entire world form the aliens, but she had finally come to the realization that life can’t be properly protected if you don’t enjoy it beforehand.
It was so simply it was almost stupid to think about it, it made Yggdrasil realize she had been being a bit too hard on everything from the beginning, but not completely change her perspective of them anyways… but this really made her change a bit. this stupid and sudden realization from all things…
She looked at the tasty food and licked a bit of the ice cream, which she had not done ever before, it was tasty and filled with flavors like she had never tasted before, so sweet, creamy, milky, and cold…
“W-What is this?”
She had never tasted ice cream before, nor any food at all, she only nourished herself absorbing energy and doing photosynthesis, so of course she didn’t need any sort of food, but now that she had manifested into this type of body, she felt overwhelmed by the tasty flavor.
“You’ve never eaten before?” asked Veronica.
“I… No… I have memories of my mothers eating, from your memories too, a bit… but I’ve mostly forgotten about them and… they’re nothing like eating… for real.” She said.
“Oho?! I see that you’re awakening into the food loving career! Don’t worry, we’ll walk through it together, dear!” said Aurora while laughing.
“Glad to see that you’re enjoying the meals, eat some meat too, its salty and juicy, the rice is also good with it… the wine too.” Said Ditoyle.
“…”
Yggdrasil took a piece of meat and chewed it, despite having been a living being before, it did not taste like death, it tasted like… a lot of flavors, delicious flavors, it was more like life. She always thought that eating corpses was strange, it felt like eating death itself…
But now she realized it was wonderful, this… it was eating life itself; every bite was like taking a bite in the life of this creature, its entire life. It sounded creepy, but this is how she saw it. it was both sorrowful but also had some sort of truth behind it, some sort of realization of the flavors of life.
It was delicious, and it made her feel utterly happy… the fluffy rice went well with it, and the fresh vegetables, the delicious soup, the sweet juice, the strong and spicy wine, everything… absolutely everything was so good! She couldn’t believe herself as she devoured all of it happily.
“So good! Is this what I’ve been missing for so long?! I am so stupid for not eating this! And… EH? I feel full…” she said, filling her Avatar’s belly. She experienced what “being full” felt like, a feeling of satiation that brought her almost a feeling of ecstasy.
“Uwah! This is indeed so tasty!” she said happily.
“See? See? You’re awakening to it, aren’t you? Good! Eat up some more, fill up your belly some more!” said Aurora.
“I-I… You won’t make me do as you please! I-I will… Ahh… T-This is so good!”
At the end Yggdrasil ended eating a lot, and by saying a lot, it was really a lot, a crap ton!
The delicious food was filling her belly a lot, the flavors moved her heart as her palate experienced new things constantly. At the end she ended eating so much the entire cafeteria didn’t had any more food.
When they ended eating, Yggdrasil had changed a bit, and felt like food was the greatest blessing in life and a big part of why people enjoy life so much, it was a beautiful sin.
After the whole meal, she decided to finally go back, as her Avatar turned back into crystal and then dived into the underground.
“W-Well… see you.” She said, as she disappeared.
“She really had da nice day, didn’t she?” asked Veronica.
“Indeed, I can tell she enjoyed her life out in this place. We should come her every day if possible there’s a lot we can meet and the people seems to be nice, apparently there are also a lot other nations and cities around this entire place, so there’s a lot to explore and see before leaving… I am excited about seeing all there is to explore, and I believe we won’t even end up seeing all…” said Aurora.
“Indeed, there’s a lot we have yet to see, but this is just the beginning… for now, how about we put our manor in here?” asked Ervas.
“Oh, that’s an interesting idea! Okay then!”
FLASH!
Suddenly a gigantic phantom house great goddess emerged out of nowhere, placing herself atop the ground, she rested over it and quickly her phantom aura dissipated… it was nobody else than Selene, their ghost manor which had grown a lot!
“Pwah! This place is beautiful! I am going to take a nap now~” she said as she began to quickly sleep carefreely.
“Well, that’s that, we are here…” said Veronica.
“Hm, for now let’s go rest, though I do have planned something, we could go meet the twins in the dreams this night,” said Ervas.
“You’re right! Let me help you in that regard too.” Said Aurora.
“Oh, Aurora, you’re joining?” asked Veronica.
“Yep!” said Aurora.
“Me too! I am good at it! My pink hair means I am good at dreams!” said Violet, suddenly butting in.
“Violet don’t get in the middle of the affairs of adults…” sighed Ditoyle.
“No, no, dear, let her. I believe she’ll be of great help… Our daughter is awesome after all.” Said Aurora with a prideful smile.
