Chapter 324: The Lady of Light and Janine Irene’s Desires
Inside the torture tower, after Lady of Light and Janine Irene quietly discussed some conclusions that didn’t hold, Kanor’s special snacks were ready.
"Please enjoy, this is… Hillenbrand’s special extraordinary fruit millefeuille!"
Wearing a chef’s hat, Kanor placed the beautiful porcelain dishes in front of the two.
On the porcelain plate, there were two delicate crystal domes. Although they were transparent, they were filled with a light white mist that made it hard to see the treats inside.
Lady of Light and Janine Irene felt a little confused, but they did not suspect anything; they just thought this was a nice surprise.
The two girls gently lifted the crystal domes.
When they lifted the covers, the light white mist spilled out all around, like low clouds rolling in a mountain valley in the morning.
A cool and gentle feeling, as smooth as silk, brushed over the backs of the two girls’ hands.
At the same time, a faint fruity scent mingled in the air and entered their noses.
After the mist cleared, creamy white frosting, light yellow layers, bright fruit pieces, and jam slowly revealing along the edge of the layers appeared before them!
It was like seeing a beautiful, dreamy mountain after parting the clouds.
Just like a candy house that appears when you turn the page of a fairy tale book, bright and delicious.
Moreover, this delicious dish is really worth its price.
"Pretty nice…"
Lady of Light exclaimed softly.
Janine Irene did not speak, but she couldn’t help but swallow.
Just the process of "opening the lid" has already started the enjoyment of this snack!
This is the true level of Kanor above "cooking" now!
In almost a summer’s time, she has learned all the "cooking" that Lolth brought from the Demon Army before coming to the main plane.
She has even started to think about studying and refining steps beyond the original taste of the final product and the cooking process itself.
Plating, shaping, aroma, decoration… even the meaning of the things.
Using the right dishware for different foods, and knowing what to eat during each season and type of weather…
These details may seem unrelated to cooking, but they are the main focus for Kanor, this genius girl, recently.
Because when you reach a certain height, it is often these small details that determine whether you can move forward.
If Kanor were to realize these things on her own, she could certainly understand them.
However, it might take her a longer time.
Now, Kanor can enter this field and explore so early, thanks to having a great teacher.
Lolth’s skills and knowledge in cooking are like a vast library, so what she teaches Kanor and Dorothy goes beyond what a chef should know in the "kitchen" and with "utensils."
Whether it is a chef or a Superoperator, Lolth has always viewed these two professions from a broader perspective.
Even her life and this world are the same way.
This perspective quietly influences Kanor and Dorothy during the teaching process—though the latter has not shown any obvious signs yet, the little girl Kanor already bears clear marks of Lolth.
In cooking, Kanor may still have a small way to go to reach the highest level on the continent, but in skill, she is already ahead of those famous chefs who have long held high status.
What Kanor lacks now is only experience and the accumulation of time.
Even without the passage of time, her cooking skills can definitely be called top-notch!
Because of this, even Lady of Light and Janine Irene, two important figures of The Church of Light, were a bit shocked by this "fruit mille-feuille."
Because both of them suddenly had the thought of wanting to eat it.
Although The Church of Light does not force anyone other than ordained priests, Eden Paladins, and the Heretic Tribunal to "practice temperance" and live like ascetics, "temperance" has always been a virtue promoted by The Church of Light.
Even though young master priests only pay lip service to temperance, it remains one of the main themes in the lives of Lady of Light and Janine Irene.
Even though they hold high positions and can easily access the wealth gathered from believers across the entire Papal State, Holy Empire, and the whole continent, it is enough for the two girls to bathe in the finest wine while using the best bread and meat as washcloths…
However, as the commander of the Oracles Knight Order and the Lady of Light, the two girls live as simply as those who must "suppress their desires."
Therefore, they rarely feel "desires," whether it be joy in the spirit or satisfaction in the body; it has become somewhat unfamiliar to the two girls.
Especially for the Lady of Light.
She has almost forgotten when she last felt an "impulse."
Although Janine Irene still occasionally has desires, it has been a long time since she felt a desire for food like this.
That impulse probably came when she was just adopted and had only known the days of hunger and fullness.
This little girl’s simple snack offering could make her feel desire…
She must have underestimated her a bit.
And the succubus who taught her must be quite the character.
She glanced at the Lady of Light, and clearly, the thoughtful Holy Maiden had a similar idea.
However, this thought did not last long.
"That’s amazing, little girl."
The Lady of Light said with amazement, and after her inner desires faded completely, she began to taste the treat.
"Her Holiness…"
After seeing the Lady of Light’s action, Janine Irene hesitated for a moment, then started to taste it too.
The sweet fruit, the rich cream… the smooth and crispy, juicy texture intertwined, and the rich aroma of fresh fruit jam blurred the boundaries between the two.
There was even a hint of soft magical energy mixed in.
The name of this treat containing the word "extraordinary" was not entirely empty praise!
This also surprised Janine Irene and the Lady of Light once again.
Without realizing it, the fruit millefeuille in front of the two had already been completely eaten.
And Kanor, the chef, smiled with satisfaction upon seeing this.
"I am glad you both liked the fruit millefeuille…"
"Thank you for your hospitality, my lord."
The Lady of Light responded with a smile as well.
"No, it’s nothing. It is my duty and honor," Kanor continued, "Now, let me pour you both a cup of tea to cleanse your palate…"
Just then, some noisy sounds came from the direction of the central square of Hillenbrand Town outside the window.
