The Legend of Level 0 in Academy City

Ta-da! Ta-da! Ta-da!

The sound was crisp, so it didn't seem broken.

Was the piano of such high quality that I absorbed all the electric shocks without them hitting the piano?

After thinking about it for a moment, Inoue Hideka went to the kitchen and got some snacks and desserts, which she then placed on the living room table.

When Inoue Eika saw the extremely unfriendly look that Misaka Mikoto was giving her in the kitchen, she hurriedly fled from the kitchen.

"Well... here are some desserts and snacks. Xiaoqi and Touma can grab a bite to pass the time."

Inoue Eika ignored Index and Last Order, who were watching TV, because Index had pounced on the snacks the moment she saw them, without any hesitation.

The final act followed closely behind, with the scholar Index beginning a frenzied feast on the snacks on the table.

"Oh~~ dessert?"

Misaki Shokuhou touched her red lips with her index finger, showing interest. She raised her eyebrows and star-shaped eyes were fixed on the cake on the table.

"Hmm... I remember you're prone to gaining weight, right? Just in case, shouldn't we check if you ate any sweets today?"

"Huh? No, I definitely haven't eaten yet!"

"Well, it seems we don't have your subordinates' contact information! Well then, please feel free to eat whatever you like."

Inoue Hideka smiled at Shokuhou Misaki, making no attempt to restrain her from staring at the cake with such gusto, and sat down next to Index to watch TV.

Touma Kamijou, bored out of his mind, grabbed a handful of sunflower seeds from the table and started cracking them while watching the anime on TV.

The habit of eating sunflower seeds was introduced to Touma by Inoue Hideka; he didn't used to eat sunflower seeds.

At Inoue Hideka's urging, I tried eating them a few times and found that using sunflower seeds to pass the time seemed like a good idea.

The group sat on the sofa, watching childish cartoons, eating, and drinking tea. Before they knew it, it was evening.

"Yinghua, the last dish will be ready soon. You can take these out first."

"Okay, coming right away!"

Inoue Hideka responded and stood up to walk towards the kitchen.

"Wow! It smells so good! What delicious food have you made?"

"Hmph! Lady Mikoto's cooking will definitely leave you, a glutton, speechless!"

"cut!"

Inoue Hideka chuckled dismissively. "No matter how delicious it is, can it be as delicious as my 'Tears-in-the-Sea' sauce?"

Before Misaka Mikoto could unleash her fury, Inoue Hideka walked out of the kitchen carrying a plate in each hand.

"Touma, help me tidy up the table."

There was a huge pile of snack bags and sunflower seed shells on the table; it was impossible to eat without cleaning them up.

After a dozen or so delicious-looking dishes were laid out on the table, Inoue Hideka went to Accelerator's door and called him out to eat.

But after knocking on the door several times, there was no response.

As expected... sound reflection was enabled, wasn't it?

He turned the doorknob; it wasn't locked. Inoue Hideka simply opened the door and went inside.

Seeing Accelerator lying on his side sleeping in bed, he reached out and patted him.

Snapped!

The hand that was about to slap Accelerator's shoulder was bounced back by the force of the impact.

Does this guy keep reflexes on even when he's sleeping?

How insecure must one be to go to such lengths!

Luckily, I didn't use too much force, otherwise I probably would have been thrown out.

However, Accelerator, sensing something, woke up.

"What?"

Accelerator, sparing with words, asked succinctly and impatiently.

"Time to eat, are you starving to death?"

After Inoue finished speaking, he walked towards the living room.

"Although it's troublesome, I'll still introduce you. This is Accelerator, who is also a temporary resident here. Also, Touma, I'm sorry to trouble you to give this gentleman your seat. You can sit with me on the stool."

There were too many people and not enough sofas, so Inoue Hideka had to bring over small stools from the balcony to make do.

Uiharu Kazari, Shirai Kuroko, Last Order, and Index were all petite, so they squeezed themselves onto the three-seater sofa.

The Queen sat firmly on the single sofa, while it seemed unlikely that Accelerator would be forced to sit on a stool, so Touma had to make do.

"Ah! It's okay, I can sit anywhere!"

Touma Kamijou said nonchalantly, standing up to give his seat to Accelerator.

When Shirai Kuroko, who was sitting on the sofa, heard the name of the white-haired boy, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Kamijou Touma and Uiharu Kazari might not care, Index was unaware, but the meticulous Shirai Kuroko immediately realized that Accelerator's name represented the strongest in Academy City!

He glanced at Inoue Hideka with surprise. This pervert seemed to be more than he appeared... Just who was he?

It's incredible that they were able to gather three of the only seven Level 5s in Academy City!

After seeing Accelerator sit down calmly, Inoue Hidekazu said to the group of people having dinner together for the first time:

"I don't usually serve food separately here, so I hope Xiao Qi, Yi Fang, and the final piece won't mind, hehe!"

"Tsk!"

Hehe~~

“Misaka Misaka doesn’t mind at all. In fact, Misaka Misaka really enjoys the atmosphere of everyone eating together,” Misaka Misaka said impatiently, waving her chopsticks.

Three different answers, but all of them meant that they had no opinion.

Upon seeing this, Inoue Hideka excitedly retrieved the Irish whiskey he had brought back from Kamijou Touma that morning, and ran to the kitchen to get three glasses, placing them on the table.

He sat in the empty seat between Touma Kamijou and Accelerator, opening a bottle of sake and chuckling to himself.

"Hehe, with such beautiful women by our side and delicious food as our companions, how can we do without fine wine? Don't you agree, Touma?"

Fill the wine glasses and place them in front of Touma Kamijou and Accelerator, respectively. Inoue Hideka then said in a grand manner:

"Come on, let's have a drink, brothers! Oh, by the way, Leizi, you're in charge of taking care of the ladies, okay? We're going to have a good drink together!"

At this moment, apart from Last Order and Index, who were completely unaware of the situation, everyone present was staring wide-eyed at Inoue Hideka, who had a heroic expression on his face.

Chapter 116 Eating and Drinking

Various thoughts flashed through the minds of the girls present, such as:

How could this pervert kidnap the strongest drinker in Academy City? What was he thinking? —Shirai Kuroko

Eika has started drinking again... even though she's never drunk anything except for that one time when we first met and I saw a beer bottle. —Saten Ruiko

Underage drinking? What's wrong with this guy? —Misaka Mikoto

It is wrong for minors to do this kind of thing. —Hatsuharu Shiori

This junior is really interesting! It's one thing to drink alone, but to dare to tempt the first-place winner so effortlessly without batting an eye. —Shokuhou Misaki

"Wow! Is it really alcohol? Misaka Misaka has never drunk alcohol before. Can Misaka Misaka have a taste?" Misaka Misaka expressed her earnest hope.

"..." Index just stared at the wine glass in Inoue Hideka's hand with shining eyes, her expression seemingly considering how the amber liquid tasted, whether it was as delicious as gourmet food.

"No way! Children shouldn't drink alcohol, and neither should Yinghua. Can't you be a little more gentlemanly in front of so many ladies and children?"

"Huh? Don't worry about us~~ How could girls understand men's romance? Right, Touma?"

"Ah... um, right?"

"I hesitated," Kamijou Touma said.

Since being introduced to drinking by Inoue Hideka, he no longer rejects the act of drinking.

On the contrary, he was also eager to taste the specialty products he had spent a lot of money to bring back from Ireland.

"Alright, you guys can eat your own food."

With a wave of his hand, Inoue Hideka ignored the strange looks from the girls and turned to look at Accelerator provocatively.

"No way? The strongest in Academy City, is he afraid of such an insignificant little thing?"

"Huh? Are you kidding me! I just don't like this kind of nonsense!"

"Oh ho! So, our Accelerator is actually a good boy, and doesn't dare to try such rebellious behavior, right?"

"Tsk! Don't underestimate me, you bastard! Humph!"

Accelerator clicked his tongue impatiently, then picked up the glass of amber liquid on the table, tilted his head back, and gulped it down.

Inoue Hideka pursed her lips, trying hard to suppress the smile on her face.

puff!

"You bastard! What is this thing?!"

"Ha ha!"

When Inoue Hideka saw Accelerator spit out everything he had just poured into his mouth, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Whisky is considered a relatively strong spirit in the West, and this bottle of Irish whiskey is amber in color, which immediately tells you that it is a relatively pure whiskey.

Even a seasoned drinker rarely drinks whiskey so recklessly, let alone Accelerator, a boy who usually only drinks coffee!

"Hey, this isn't coffee. Wine is meant to be savored! You have to sip it slowly, like tea, to truly appreciate its charm. Have a bite of food first, then take a small sip—it'll be a completely different experience. Haha!"

"Hmph! You think I'll fall for your tricks again!"

"No, no, I'm serious, just try one more time! Come on, Touma, let's have a drink first, and set a good example for Yifang!"

Bang!

Their glasses clinked together, and Inoue Hideka and Kamijou Touma took a sip.

"Wow! Yinghua, this whiskey is really strong!"
