New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 202 Familiar yet strange lover
When Lei Ye saw these words, he was instantly moved.

Nedori is not the type of person who would flatter others. She is a warrior who will not be forced to flatter even if she is killed. The will she expresses must be sincere.

But what is the so-called protection?

Lei Ye was a little confused. He hadn't encountered any danger in the Witch's House. If there was any danger, it would be fine as long as it was not to the extent that he could not use the save data.

He thought about it and asked.

"Do you know what you just did?"

Nadori moved and wrote two more words.

"know."

Just to write these two words, she needed to first use branches to smooth out the soil with the words on it, and then swing the tips of the branches. It was a bit too troublesome to express her opinions in this way.

If I had known this earlier, I should have made a magic tool that allows her to write. It wouldn't be too troublesome. But I always thought she was a monster, and she wasn't very willing to communicate, only with Raino. Daily conversations between the two could be done through body language and eye contact.

So Lei Ye didn't plan to ask more. Looking at the state of Elgus just now, it should have been retracing its past while retaining some of its "experience". This experience was both physical and memory-related, and even a large part of the favorability was retained. After the time limit is over, everything that happened during this period as Elgus will be remembered by Nadori.

In other words, Nadori still remembered the scene of killing people all along the way, and she just acted a little tired and didn't care about it.

Forget it. The fear that Lei Ye had developed towards Elgus along the way had disappeared after he saw Nadori. He stopped thinking about it. He knew that those two people were the same person but different.

So he put the little thing on his chest, touched it to calm himself, and then took out the recipe he had taken with him.

What’s different from the previous bottle of potion is that the recipe here is not an incomplete version, but a complete version.

As for the material that was stated in it but could not be produced by the Witch House, Lei Ye thought there could only be one.

Legendary material: Brave Blood.

If the same is true for other incomplete versions of potions, then Lei Ye can make complete versions of all the potions here.

Lei Ye was suddenly stunned.

In other words, all the medicines being developed here require a part of his body.

He had a bad feeling in his heart, but even if he wanted to ask, there was no one in the Witch House with whom he could communicate. He ran all the way to the security booth, but it was also empty. Lei Ye glanced at the surveillance cameras, and there was no sign of the witch anywhere. It seemed that besides them, only Luo Lin was left in the entire Witch House, and she was taking advantage of the fact that no one was around to put something in her pocket.

Well, even though I had expected this to happen, I can now declare this save file destroyed. There will no longer be any possibility of learning space magic from the witch.

Let’s go back and try again.

Lei Ye took out the short knife that had just fallen on the ground from his storage bag and wiped his neck with it.

Put it down again.

Not in a hurry.

If you think about it carefully, the witches in the witch house all ran away using space magic. Isn't this the best time to investigate? This place is empty, no matter where he goes, no one will stop him. He also has a map in his hand, so he can go to various key locations first.

First of all
He glanced at Nedori.

Taking her with him, he returned to the alchemy workshop where the bottles of potions were still on the table.

Lei Ye picked up a bottle of time curl reduction medicine and fed it to Nadori hesitantly.

Then, just like the reverse of the process of Erugus transforming into Nedori that he had just seen, he watched Nedori gradually take on a human form and crawl up from the ground.

She can no longer be called Nedoryi, the invincible assassin king Elugus has appeared again.

"Shhh, it hurts, it hurts, did I get hit by some kind of magic just now? This is not good. These fat guys actually know this kind of magic."

As soon as she appeared, she moved her body in all kinds of exaggerated ways, as if she had just been freed from being tied up.

Then, as usual, she looked at the nearest person first.

She frowned and thought for a moment.

Then stretch out.

"Oh! Brother Lei, I didn't misjudge you! You saved me, didn't you?"

It does not make sense.

Then she looked around and recognized that this was the alchemy workshop from before. However, with Lorraine's departure, there were no other living people here, so Elugus quickly completed the inspection and relaxed her guard. She pulled a chair and sat down, rubbing her body and cursing.

"Hey! I hate this kind of magic the most. Wouldn't it be nice to have some passionate explosions? Why learn this? But it's okay. The more this happens, the more it shows that she is worth hunting. Hehe, I have to kill her. Hey, Lei brother, sit down."

She really did think of herself as the younger brother, ordering people around like a big sister.

Lei Ye analyzed from her speech that she called herself "Brother Lei" as soon as she opened her mouth, which meant that Alugus' memory was still there and she remembered herself.

But she won't remember the part where she turned back into Nadori because the effect of the drug wore off.

So from her perspective, she was laning against the elder one second, then saw her body become limp, and the next second she appeared here again, right?

There is some disgusting control magic in this world, like Lulu's goat transformation, which can forcibly turn a ruthless character into a small animal or make him lose his combat ability. From Algus's perspective, he might have been hit by such magic, rescued by Lei Ye and brought here, and then just woke up.

Lei Ye tried to think about it from other perspectives, but this was indeed the most likely possibility.

"I'm talking to Brother Lei."

Eluges suddenly lowered his voice, which scared Lei Ye.

"I'm here. What's going on?"

"It's very strange when I think about it. I came here specifically to hunt witches. I would only go out alone for a hunt like this. Logically, I wouldn't cooperate with you. Even if we happened to meet here, why did you say that you brought me in? The most important thing is that I have no memory of this part. In the end, I don't even know how I got in. Let me think about it. At the end of my memory, I was on the slave trader's carriage. The slave trader said to hide the carriage and then..."

She tapped her head and looked very distressed, like someone who hated thinking but had to think very hard.

And gave up decisively.

“Forget it!” She glanced at her body and found that her ‘clothes’ were gone again, but this time she didn’t even bother to fool around. She just put one foot on the stool and tilted her head to glance at Lei Ye, like interrogating a criminal. “Brother Lei, you’d better explain it to me. I get very upset when I encounter something I don’t understand. If I get upset, I’ll kill someone.”

Among the seven deadly sins, pride is the only unreasonable evil one.

Lei Ye was really depressed and didn't even have the mood to appreciate the body of the dark-skinned beauty. The more distinct and strong this person's personality was, the more Lei Ye couldn't imagine her and Nadori together.

If he had to explain something.
"I really don't know how to put it, because so many things have happened during this period. How can I describe the relationship between the two of us? Maybe it's a fairy and an old slave?"

"Ah?" Eluges was stunned. "Fairy, me? Wait, wait, what are you talking about? It's not what I imagined."

The word "fairy" here is not a nice word, Lei Ye complained in his heart.

He thought for a moment and added, "Do you have any means to determine the time, like a watch or something?"

"No." Elugus answered immediately.

Come to think of it, Lei Ye's watch doesn't have a calendar function, and it's not even very accurate. In this way, she doesn't know that five years have passed since then. If there is no way to make her clearly aware of this incident, it will be difficult to fool her with a story about what happened later.

As for the option of showing her the truth through the Vision Crystal, it never existed in the first place.

Eluges came close to Lei Ye, circled around him and pinched his body from time to time. She shook her head and looked flustered.

"You have a decent pedigree, but you haven't received any training at all. Even if breeding high-level demons is my responsibility, I wouldn't choose someone like you."

"Hey, boss, I don't like what you're saying. What do you mean by this? Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?"

"Because I feel like I'm missing some memories, very important memories, but I can't remember them. Combined with my inexplicable affection for you, of course I would suspect that something happened between us," she touched her chin, then patted Lei Ye on the back. "Hey, let's do this. There are not many men in this world who are worthy of me. Your devilish bloodline is at least enough, and I don't have any bad feelings towards you. Then find some time to get the baby and our mission will be accomplished."

"What are you talking about! What are you talking about! Is this really your true nature? I'm so sad!"

Erugus hummed and walked to the side, pulling the curtain to wrap his body.

"What do you mean by 'your nature'? Brother Lei, you really know a side of me that I don't know. Haha, but you don't really think I'm interested in things like romance or love, do you?" Then she returned to Lei Ye and put her arm on his shoulder. "No, Brother Lei, caring too much about this kind of thing will make your knife dull."

"Speechless, I can't continue talking to you, typical thinking of a scorched earth woman."

Eluges did not answer.

He lowered his head in thought, his expression gradually becoming confused.

There was such a big difference between her and Nedori that Lei Ye simply gave up talking to her. Anyway, the test on the time warp reduction drug was over, so he turned around and walked into the basement.

This save file was already in ruins, and he wanted to use his last time to dig out something useful from the ruins.

After searching for a long time, Lei Ye found several usable formulas, which he silently memorized in his mind.

【Magic Enhancement Potion】

: The overflowing mana can be temporarily added to the total mana.

Just getting such a formula would make the trip worthwhile. For Lei Ye, this thing would definitely play a big role in his final plan.

Lei Ye opened the map and found that the nearest place was the cafeteria.

He rode on the will-o'-the-wisp and headed in that direction.

At a certain moment he suddenly had the illusion that he was being stared at by a ghost. He turned around and saw Eluges sitting sideways behind him.

I clearly didn't see her following me when I went out, but when I turned around I saw her appear behind me, like a possessed ghost.

"Hey you!"

"what?"

Yes, what can I do? If the other party takes my car naturally, then what? I can't refuse.

"You're not going to collect the spoils?"

"They must have all run away by now. Is there any need to think about it? We must find a way to get out first, otherwise this place will become my prison. You brought me in, so you have to take me out."

"I have things to do."

"Then you can do it. I'll follow you and can be your thug if you encounter any problems."

Okay, the tone is arrogant, but the attitude is not bad.

Because the distance was short, Lei Ye arrived at the kitchen immediately. Although it was also a tree house, the activity space was not on the ground. Instead, a hole was dug out in the roots of the giant tree, and one could enter the interior by climbing a few steps.

There was a faint fragrance in the air. As Lei Ye expected, if the witches teleported away directly, they would definitely leave some things behind.

If he still wanted to learn space magic, he still had to come into contact with the witches, so he might as well investigate in advance. Lei Ye quickly found the witches' unfinished lunch. While it was still hot, he picked up his chopsticks and tasted it.

You know what, it’s really not bad.

If it weren't for the bonus of the chef's skills, my level would be about the same as mine before I studied cooking.

But compared to myself, it is far behind.

Very good, nothing to worry about.

"Huh~"

The sound appeared again at a very close distance. Erugus leaned over Lei Ye's shoulder and asked, "This won't do, Lei, brother. Why are you eating leftovers?"

Then, there was a gurgling sound.
The sound coming from the belly of Erugus.

Eluges was not embarrassed, and even raised her eyebrows with some pride. She sat casually on the table and patted her belly button.

"If you want to be a good assassin, you must have excellent patience. Not to mention being hungry, in order to hunt a super rare monster, I once hid underwater for seven days disguised as a fish. During those seven days, I..."

"I'm not an assassin."

".Oh," Eluges paused, and subconsciously took the thing Lei Ye handed over, "Oh?"

That was a box lunch.

"Eat if you're hungry. You're her, and I won't let her go hungry. Don't bother me yet. I'm busy."

"What? Hey, hey, hey, what are you talking about? And your tone is a bit too arrogant. Who do you think you are talking to?!"

For an assassin, being able to go hungry is a cool thing.

For some reason, Eluges wanted to show off his abilities to his new little brother.

But the other party didn't seem to care and gave him a box lunch.

Okay, okay, Eluges had to admit that she was very hungry and felt that her body was extremely lacking in energy. Besides, the fried rice was indeed very fragrant. She hesitated for a moment, muttered, "I'll forgive your rudeness this time," and then gently opened the lunch box.

Actually, I should say thank you at this time.

But since it is my offering, it’s okay to enjoy it like this.

She put her feet on Lei Ye's shoulders, shook them, and tapped Lei Ye's face with the arch of her foot.

"I think you are filial, huh."

The last humming sound was a bit cute. Lei Ye, who was recording the recipes that appeared here in his notebook, was stunned for a moment and turned to look at Eluges.

She stuck out her tongue.

"My dear, you can already make such delicious food."

"Eh?" Without waiting for Lei Ye to say anything, she seemed to be startled by her own words, "Dear?"
