Douluo Jueshi: Picking up Firefly at the Beginning

Chapter 12 Oak Cake Roll

"go to school!"

After receiving Meteor's memories, Liuying also fantasized about being born on a stable and peaceful planet. She wanted to go to school and make friends with like-minded people. She also had some small wishes, such as being able to sleep peacefully, using her pocket money to buy cute gadgets, and becoming a dessert taster.

As the Grammer Iron Cavalry of the Sky Front, wearing the Firefly IV strategic assault armor, Sam is seen by others as a weapon against the Zerg, but in Firefly's eyes, it is the cradle of her life. She cannot leave Sam for a long time and can only fight endlessly as a weapon until she burns out.

But now it is different. She has been reborn, and "entropy syndrome" cannot affect her temporarily. She can experience life to the fullest as a firefly and touch the world full of vitality with her own hands.

Although the defects of being an artificial human have always accompanied her, such as the inability to dream, it does not prevent her from pursuing a normal life.

So, she is indeed interested in going to school.

Luanyu saw the answer from Liuying's face. She smiled and said, "Of course children have to go to school! But Shrek Academy is not suitable for you. I will send you to other schools. They are not worse than Shrek Academy."

"Ok!"

Liuying nodded, her eyes filled with anticipation. Going to school! This was something she had never experienced before, but she had seen it in Liuxing's memories. She was looking forward to her own campus life.

Liuxing glanced at Luanyu. Since she couldn't go to Shrek Academy, it seemed that this cheap sister was hostile to Shrek Academy and the alma mater of the previous generation protagonist. Could this sister be from the villain forces?

But none of this matters. He doesn't care. Looking at Firefly's expectant face, Meteoric smiles and says, "That's good. You are not a weapon. You should have your own life, your own hobbies, and your own friends. Sam is a weapon of war, but Firefly, you are not."

But school! Liuxing was secretly looking forward to it. He wasn't looking forward to meeting new friends and enjoying campus life like Liuying. He wanted to learn how to meditate and refine his soul power. As an ordinary person, he had also fantasized about this world with superpowers and magic, and had his own period of being a middle school student. Now that the opportunity to come into contact with the extraordinary was before him, how could he remain indifferent?

Luan Yu saw the expectant looks of the two little guys and smiled gently. It felt good to raise two little guys like this. My elder sister should like them too. After all, the two little guys were so cute.

With the two little ones, Luanyu quickly arrived at a restaurant. Luanyu, who had been in Longcheng for some time, was familiar with the better restaurants in Longcheng. She was also a foodie and had high requirements for food.

The restaurant Luanyu brought Liuxing and Liuying into looked remarkably upscale. The ornate chandelier emitted a soft glow, illuminating her, Liuxing, and Liuying's faces. The resplendent décor and upscale tables and chairs exuded an air of elegance. The waiters, dressed in neat uniforms, greeted them with smiles.

Meteor felt the soft carpet beneath his feet, and every step felt like stepping on clouds. Soft music played in the restaurant, adding a touch of tranquility to the elegant atmosphere.

Liuxing was secretly amazed. He had never been to such a luxurious restaurant. The Dragon City looked old from the outside, and he thought the restaurant inside was also an ancient inn. He didn't expect it to be so modern.

As expected of a world that had been developing for ten thousand years, it was different. When he first entered Dragon City, he thought that after ten thousand years, the world had not made much progress, just like in the first film. Now it seemed that he was wrong. Meteor and Firefly followed Luanyu, their eyes full of curiosity.

Neither Meteor nor Firefly had ever been to such a luxurious restaurant. Although there were more luxurious restaurants in Meteor's world, he didn't have the ability to go in. In one word, he was "poor".

As for Firefly, she is just a consumable, a warrior. Although she has the ability to eat, she usually stays in the incubator and relies on nutrient solution to stay alive. The only food she has eaten is a piece of oak cake roll that she ate by chance. That was the only food she had ever eaten. Although the oak cake roll seemed unpalatable to others, like chewing a piece of wood, she liked the taste very much and always wanted to eat it again.

The waiter led them to a seat by the window, outside of which was a bustling street with people coming and going.

Meteor and Firefly sat obediently on the comfortable leather chairs, their dangling legs swinging back and forth, looking extremely cute. Didn’t you see that the uniformed waitress’ eyes were shining?

Humans are visual animals, and cute things always attract attention.

There was also a faint sight coming from the nearby dining table.

Luan Yu smiled knowingly. These two little guys were indeed extremely cute. It seemed that she was not the only one who thought so.

Although he was captured by the little guy, the waiter did not forget his job and handed over the menu. Luanyu took the menu and flipped through it. He ordered a few of his favorite dishes and then handed it to Liuying and Liuxing and said, "What do you want to eat? Order what you like."

Liuxing gestured to Liuying to order first. Liuying did not hesitate and opened the menu. She saw a variety of delicious foods listed on it. Each dish was accompanied by exquisite illustrations, which made people salivate.

Liuying's eyes lit up as she quickly flipped to the pages about desserts. Then, frowning, she asked the waiter, "Don't you have any oak cake rolls?"

Hearing Liuying's question, the waiter looked embarrassed. The name of this oak cake roll sounds nice, but it is actually just a poor man's food with sawdust added to the bread to ensure that he is full. How could such a restaurant have such food?

Meteor, who understood Liuying's mysterious obsession with oak cake rolls, said to Liuying, "Liuying, eat something else first. We'll go out later and see if there are any oak cake rolls."

Luan Yu also nodded and said, "Xiao Liuying, after dinner, sister will take you out to buy oak cake rolls. Eat something else first. The cakes here are all delicious."

Luanyu touched Liuying's little head, her eyes full of heartache. She knew something about what oak cake rolls were. She had eaten them once out of curiosity. The feeling of being difficult to swallow, as if chewing wood, left a deep impression on her. In her opinion, anyone who could eat that kind of food was a warrior.

Of course, what she ate was not the kind with sawdust, but the kind that was specially made to have the same taste. The kind with sawdust was only made by the truly poor people who could not afford to eat enough.
