Chapter 8
🕑 Added 2024-11-26 22:11:55 +0000 UTC"Although I have no idea how you conjured these two dishes, since you're clearly in the mood to treat us, I’ll do exactly as promised—eat to my heart’s content!"
Nobunaga nodded vigorously. "That's right! Even if there's something fishy about this food, I’d still gladly take the risk!"
He set his long sword aside, rolled up his sleeves, and dug in.
By this point, Uvogin had already stuffed a pork leg into his mouth.
With just one bite, Uvogin paused briefly before exclaiming.
"Delicious!!"
His eyes lit up with an intense gleam as he let out a loud shout, startling Nobunaga, who was mid-bite.
"You're way too loud!"
Nobunaga grumbled through a mouthful of food, displeased but unable to deny:
"It's delicious!"
Uvogin, ignoring Nobunaga’s protests, devoured the entire pork leg in just a few bites and continued to eat with his usual ravenous, no-holds-barred enthusiasm.
Nobunaga wasn’t slow either, but compared to Uvogin, his speed paled in comparison.
Soon, thanks to Uvogin’s whirlwind-like eating pace, the whole roasted pig disappeared into his stomach.
Not even the bones were spared, as Uvogin, with his extraordinary bite strength, crunched and swallowed them with ease.
Though it didn’t quite match the jaw strength he’d later use to chomp through a Shadow Beast’s skull, it was still impressive.
"Smack smack!"
Content and satisfied after devouring the roasted pig, Uvogin made a loud, self-satisfied noise, though it was clear he wasn’t quite done.
His gaze drifted to Nobunaga’s plate.
Nobunaga, who had just finished most of his meal, had a single pork leg left. He was gnawing on the bone, much like Uvogin had been earlier.
Uvogin grinned, baring his sharp teeth, still slick from the marrow he’d just devoured. A chill seemed to radiate from them.
Opportunity knocks only once!
Seizing the moment, Uvogin demonstrated his lightning-fast reflexes.
Whoosh!
Before Nobunaga could react, the pork leg in front of him vanished and reappeared in Uvogin’s hand.
Nobunaga: "……!!"
He stared blankly at his now-empty plate, then at Uvogin, who was gleefully gnawing on his pork leg.
"Uvogin!!"
Nobunaga was furious, shouting at the top of his lungs:
"You're dead!!”
Grabbing the hilt of his sword, he bellowed.
"Let me finish this first!"
Uvogin said through a full mouth as he quickly chewed and swallowed the entire pork leg.
"Alright, ready!"
With a full mouth and bulging cheeks, Uvogin assumed a fighting stance.
Nobunaga, trembling with anger, glared at Uvogin’s bulging throat as he swallowed.
"Gulp."
"My pork leg!!"
Nobunaga’s anguished cry echoed through the room.
"It’s just a pork leg!"
Seeing Nobunaga’s bloodshot eyes, Uvogin reconsidered and added,
"Fine, I’ll pay you back later."
"Pay me back?!"
Furious, Nobunaga drew his sword fully, flinging the sheath aside.
"And how exactly do you plan to repay the pork leg you owe me?!"
Machi sighed, preparing to intervene
She knew how this would end: after a brawl, neither of them would bring it up again.
But the problem was… this was her house!
"Can’t you two fight outside?!"
"Come on, don’t let a pig ruin your friendship."
Mollified, Morin stepped in first, snapping his fingers.
"I already told you—this meal’s on me. Pigs? Plenty more where that came from!"
Suddenly, two more perfectly roasted suckling pigs appeared on their table, identical to the first two.
Nobunaga:
Uvogin:
The two stared at each other.
Still fighting?
Not a chance!
Practically in unison, Nobunaga set his sword aside, while Uvogin swiftly grabbed another pork leg.
In the end, the feud was settled with Uvogin replacing the stolen pork leg.
"Burp."
Both of them ate until they were stuffed to the point of exhaustion, their stomachs bulging.
"I… I can still eat," Uvogin said, struggling to speak through his greasy mouth.
"Eat any more, and you’ll turn into a pig yourself!" Nobunaga retorted.
Machi rolled her eyes.
These two gluttons had no sense of restraint, only stopping after devouring an uncountable number of pigs.
If they weren’t already stuffed to the brim, they’d probably still be eating.
"This is truly delicious," Nobunaga said with a satisfied expression.
"This might be the best roast suckling pig I’ve ever had."
Uvogin snorted. "Oh, like you’ve eaten this before."
Nobunaga glared. "Exactly because I haven’t, it’s the best!"
No matter how you looked at it, Morin’s treat had thoroughly satisfied the two of them.
"You're something else!"
Uvogin grinned and gave Morin a big thumbs-up as the latter collected the tablecloths.
"I like you."
