Chapter 239: New Shop Items (2)

(This Chapter is dedicated to Eiirmac and IheartBT for the car. (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧)

"I’ll just whip a quick meal. It won’t take that long." Siri walked out before they can say another word. He went out, passed by the garden to see if the chumpets were already mature.

After he saw some were ready for picking, he harvested four of them before he walked towards his residence to get the cookbook the Secret Realm’s grandmas gave him before.

He skimmed the book and saw some easy recipes. Entering the warehouse, he took a bag and stuffed the necessary ingredients inside. In the midst, the scene where his Master got hit by the meteor replayed in his mind.

His hands trembled and the 1kg bag of flour fell slipped from his hand and fell on the floor. He clenched his fists and punched the shelves as waves of helplessness washed over him.

After the elf left, Long Haoran’s gaze stayed on the door for a few seconds. Li Chunhua and the carefree gluttons might not noticed it all but he sensed that the Elf was not in a good mood and was hiding it.

There was sound of footsteps tapping on the floor echoed. Siri stopped by the door of the living room and said, "Just wait for a while. The meals will be ready."

Li Chunhua and the two gluttons stood up from their chair, "Brother Siri, let me help you."

Siri whose eyes were a little puffy waved his hand, flashed them a smile. "No need", before he entered the kitchen.

Li Chunhua frowned and said in worry, "Why do I feel Brother Siri was not like himself?"

Elga slumped on her chair taking a rest, opened one of her eyes, "Maybe you’re just overthinking." The pixie sighed in comfort.

"Am I?" Li Chunhua took a seat next to Chef Long and scratched her right cheek, thinking of what Elga said.

Long Haoran glanced at her. When the Elf returned, he noticed the rims of its eyes were red and there were fresh bruises on his knuckles.

Long Haoran may have zero knowledge in gaming and dating but he had sharp judgment and was able to guess what Siri was thinking through his observation.

Xiao Hua’s frowning made him ultimately speak up, "I think he is thinking about what happened earlier. He’s blaming himself for not being able to help you..."

Li Chunhua, Elga, Little Mantou and Little Ginseng listened to Chef Long’s words and when they heard the reasonable explanation, the four of them rushed towards the kitchen, burst opened the door, only to catch the Elf with his head hanging.

His golden strands of hair were cascading like a waterfall covering his expression.

Long Haoran followed the four.

Siri was startled by the loud noise and instinctively spun his head to the direction of the door.

The four were able to see the tears streaming down his face.

Siri realized that his state at the moment. He wiped the tears on his collar but four figures instantly surrounded him.

"Sir Elf, compared to you, I’m just a freeloader who only moves around by the smell of food." Little Mantou placed his little pink-padded paws the Elf’s pants and grinned.

"Right, Handsome Elf should not dwell on the little things. You did a good job supervising us. Because of you I learned counting and some strategies. You’re a valuable asset to the team." Elga tiptoed and patted his shoulders.

"Ji ji ji." (Super Handsome Elf, those little guys on the garden wouldn’t be able to grow beautifully without you. Those little greenies keep praising your hard work and care. Don’t cry. You are the most beautiful when you smile.)

Siri sniffed and the tip of his nose was a little red from their comforting words. He held himself from crying.

Suddenly Li Chunhua burrowed her head on his chest, "Brother Siri, I was an orphan and I never met my parents. Being with you for the past few days, I already treated you as my family. And don’t blame yourself about the matter of me getting hit by the meteor. It was because of that villain system that got nothing else better to do. Also without you, the Salted Fish would not function well. Thank you for coming into my life Brother Siri."

This time, Siri couldn’t restrain himself anymore and cried from the bottling emotions. "Master..."

(A/N: I’m not crying, I’m just slicing onions.)

"Don’t cry anymore!" "Ji ji ji." The four said in a soft voice trying to cheer him up.

Siri cried even more.

Long Haoran watched the heartwarming scene from the threshold of the door. He crossed his arms and leaned on the wall, partly remembering Zurui.

[You’ve got a 1kg of Emerald Garlic.]

[You’ve got a 1kg of Star Chives.]

[You’ve got a 1kg of Glazer Fennel Seeds.]

[You’ve got a 1k g of Sporadium Cinnamon.]

[You’ve got...]

[You’ve got a message from your friend, Great Romantic Sage.]

[Great Romantic Sage]: Brother, I only earned small points. In the future when I become a big shot, I’ll buy you more.

Long Haoran looked at the new things added in his inventory.

He searched for the prices of the spices his brother sent and saw that every 1kg of each was worth hundreds of EP. If he calculated it correctly, his brother will be left with less than 100.

[Dumpling Duke]: Why didn’t you buy something for yourself?

[Great Romantic Sage]: I basically couldn’t survive without you. All that spices couldn’t compare to the value of the things you gave me before. Even I’m a part-time leech, I still know how to repay back your love.

Fighting those monsters were no laughing matter. Without the help of stamina recovery items and the bandages, there would be casualties.

Long Haoran lifted the corner of his lips.

[Great Romantic Sage]: Yawn. I’m quite tired Brother. I will take a nap first.

Long Zurui logged out the chat, entered his room and laid on the bed.

Long Haoran closed the chat and stared the Elf.

"Brother Siri, we’ll tickle you if you continue to cry." Li Chunhua said with a smile.

Siri stopped crying and wiped his tears. He better comply because with his Master’s incredible strength the tickle might end up as a torture.

When Siri’s mind was a clear, he remembered what his Master said before. "How did you know that I was blaming myself?"

Li Chunhua pointed at the door, "Brother Siri, it was Chef Long."

It was then Siri sensed that someone was looking at him. He strayed his eyes from his Master and saw the man leaning on the kitchen door.

He felt gratitude towards him. Neither said a word for the fleeting emotions flashing across each other’s eyes were enough for both of them to understand the underlying message hidden within them.

Now Siri was feeling better, he had everyone leave the kitchen while he made the dishes.

Even if they insisted on helping they were rejected on the reason that Siri hadn’t cook for them in a while.

Li Chunhua could only returned to the living room and checked the Shop for the new items.

[Beginner Space Pouch Drawing (1 cubic meter) - 500 EP]

[Beginner Space Bag Drawing (5 cubic meters) - 1000 EP]

[Intermediate Space Pouch Drawing (20 cubic meters) - 1500 EP]

[Beginner Space Ring Drawing (50 cubic meters) - 3500 EP]

[Beginner Cold Storage Blueprint (20 square feet) - 450 EP]

[Intermediate Cold Storage Blueprint (100 square feet) - 2000 EP]

Li Chunhua’s finger hovered over the choices until she remembered Chef Long’s need for the Death Island Fragments.

Come to think of it...

Where are the loots? The Copper Coins!

She only remembered about it now.

Li Chunhua infused her eyes with qi and checked the signs of it outside but hen she saw the land was bare of even a single coin, her lips trembled.

Are you telling me that all their hard work is in vain?

Her heart was clogged with bitterness and checked her inventory to seek some comfort.

[Wealth: 11 gold/ 760 silver/ 59, 894, 239 copper coins]

Li Chunhua: (⊙_⊙)? 59...59 million!
