I am the Executioner Dragon, but a cute mod.
Chapter 84: Style from Later Times
To clear up the misunderstanding, Lu Su quickly explained, recounting everything from Su Nu's first appearance in the outside world, to being besieged by noble families, to her mad revenge, and finally her dedication to education...
After saying this, Lu Su looked at Amelia again and found that an extremely awkward emotion had appeared on her face.
Lu Suo had already guessed that the little girl in front of him had a close relationship with Su Nuo. Being the type to want to control the situation, he immediately considered several possibilities after he said those words, in order to deal with the next development.
But Amelia's slightly disappointed expression was completely different from the anger, sorrow, confusion, and bewilderment that Lu Suo had imagined. It was as if... a pet he had raised for a while had died.
Although this is not entirely accurate, the meaning is very similar.
[What exactly is her relationship with Sukuna? Why did she make that expression after I finished speaking? Strange, so strange, I really can't understand it...]
Lu Suo pondered for a moment, then began to think about how to escape. From the aura just now, Lu Suo could clearly feel that Amelia was stronger than him, at least in his current body he could not defeat her.
But before that, Amelia's voice rang out, interrupting Lu Suo's thoughts:
"Since you know so much about Sukuna, you two must have a pretty good relationship. Come in and chat."
As soon as she finished speaking, Amelia opened the door wide, stepped aside, and made way for Luso.
Lu Suo was finally able to see the interior of the house. A spacious living room came into view, with a two-story curved staircase leading directly to the second floor behind it. To the left was an open kitchen and dining room, and to the right was a small garden filled with unknown flowers and plants.
Although this scene was somewhat inferior to the mansions of the wealthy and noble, its style far surpassed that of the times, which made Lu Suo fix his gaze on it.
Under the influence of the brain-transfer technique, Lu Suo could have an almost endless lifespan by constantly changing bodies. In order to make this long lifespan less interesting, Lu Suo devised a plan with an extremely long scope—to promote the assimilation of humans with Tianyuan.
Lu Su did this simply out of curiosity about what kind of advanced life form humans would become after assimilating with Tianyuan. It was this curiosity that drove Su Su to work towards it.
Now, Sukuna's curiosity was rekindled, both about Amelia and the origins of the mansion.
[Perhaps, I can use Sukuna's relationship with her to make her a pawn in my scheme.]
Lu Su quickly set his sights on Amelia, but he cautiously kept it hidden. Instead, he gladly accepted Amelia's invitation and entered the mansion before him.
Led by Amelia, Luso sat down in front of the sofa. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he was still utterly shocked when he actually sat on the furniture from the future.
Simply describing it as soft and comfortable is not enough. How can one describe this feeling? It's like... countless sheep are licking his buttocks, each lick perfectly timed, each lick leaving no spot untouched.
...This is true enjoyment.
Lu Su sighed inwardly, but soon he refocused his attention on Amelia.
At this moment, Amelia had already taken her seat opposite Luso. She stared at Luso, unsure of where to begin her question. After a moment's thought, she finally spoke:
"How have you been all these years, Sukuna?"
This question immediately piqued Lu Suo's interest, because simply using "good" or "bad" is hardly enough to encompass the entire sixty years.
After pondering for a while, Lu Suo came up with a relatively perfect answer:
"Over the years he has taught many sorcerers and given many children a home. I think he is very satisfied with his life over the years."
"Is that so?"
Amelia was skeptical of Luso's words. If Su Nuo was truly satisfied with his life these past years, why didn't he return here to see Him and Lilith?
Therefore, Amelia believes that Sukuna must have been living in self-blame all these years, and that his "friend" Ryosaku was completely unaware of this. It can only be said that Sukuna hid it very well.
For a moment, the atmosphere became too quiet. Amelia didn't ask any questions, and Luso didn't know what to say.
To avoid feeling too awkward, Lu Suo began to observe the specific furnishings in the room, such as the abstract painting made up of multiple geometric shapes, the bronze statue of Lilith riding a horse with an unclear meaning placed in the corner, and the most normal-looking retro-style solid wood floor clock.
Staring at the intricately designed machine that was moving, Lu Suo felt only curiosity. He wondered why this thing could move on its own without any magical power flowing through it.
Three hundred years later, when Western missionaries introduced mechanical clocks to Japan, Rōsō will realize what he had actually experienced back then...
As Lu Su stared at the grandfather clock in amazement, Amelia also glanced at the time every now and then. When the hour and minute hands reached a familiar position, Amelia got up and went to the kitchen.
Faced with Amelia's sudden action, Lu Su looked over. Because the kitchen was open, he could clearly see Amelia starting to arrange the pots and pans, as if she was preparing a meal.
[Is it a bit late to cook this at this hour? Or... does she think I haven't eaten yet and prepared this especially for me?]
As Lu Suo thought this, his gaze swept over the ingredients taken from the freezer: meat from unknown creatures, mysterious purple fruits, coniferous plants, and sticky yellow cubes.
Seeing these ingredients, Lu Suo was completely dismayed. He couldn't feel at ease making food from these things he couldn't even name.
He even began to suspect:
[Is this edible?]
Once Amelia has prepared the ingredients, she can heat a pan, add the meat, and sear it until both sides are set and the edges are sealed. Then she can add the sticky yellow cubes, the chopped purple fruit, and the coniferous plants.
Under the high temperature, the sticky yellow cube melted into something resembling oil. As Amelia poured the oil onto the meat again and again, a strange aroma suddenly wafted out.
The aroma that filled his nostrils instantly snapped Lu Suo out of his daze. He savored the aroma repeatedly, finding it incredibly tempting—a rich meaty scent mixed with milky notes and a refreshing herbal fragrance.
Lu Suo had never smelled such an enticing aroma before. His mouth immediately began to water, and he wished he could rush into the kitchen and devour the food that was still cooking.
[Wait, wait a little longer. Anyway, these are all mine. There's no point in rushing...]
Lu Suo comforted himself in this way, looking forward to this delicacy from the future. Little did he know that Amelia's sudden decision to go to the kitchen to cook had nothing to do with him.
The reason for cooking in this world is that Lilith usually wakes up around this time, and Amelia needs to ensure that Lilith can enjoy a fresh breakfast as soon as she gets up...
