Chapter 244 A Demon General In A Tailor Shop?
In response to the elven staff's words, Alister nodded his head. When they gave him the menu, he didn't hesitate to order all of it.
Even if it wasn't free, Alister could not only afford everything on the menu, but he could also afford to purchase the Reoserin Dessert Shop.
The magical herbs and rare ores he had obtained in the Mystic Forest's edge had made him even richer than an entire kingdom or even an entire race.
While Alister and Zanna were checking the menu and the elven staff had already left to start preparing the desserts, Alister couldn't help but comment after seeing the menu, "I was expecting it to only be cakes, pies, cookies, tarts, doughnuts, and pancakes but they even have ice cream and parfait." noVe/lB)In
Zanna answered Alister's doubts, "Modern desserts that were far ahead of this era are now available due to the heroes specifically the generations of Food Heroes."
"This world had advanced in all aspects due to the heroes as they shared their modern knowledge with this world. However, this generation's batch of heroes aren't genuine heroes."
"Although there were cases where heroes had attempted to dominate the world and cooperate with the demon king, it wasn't as bad as this one. Only a few heroes would rebel but not all of the heroes, unlike this generation of heroes."
"Sigh, maybe your arrival in this world is fate. Just when the world needed someone who could eliminate those heroes, your timely appearance prevented the heroes from dominating the world and spreading tragedy to all races."
Zanna sighed as she rested her head on the table. Her face couldn't help but become gloomy after recalling the previous timeline when the spirit race was enslaved by the heroes.
'Alister's appearance is like an anti-hero. If heroes are anti-demon kings, then Alister is an anti-hero and an anti-tragedy. Not only did he reach the level of power where even all of the heroes combined couldn't defeat him, but his universe reset ability can even prevent tragedies such as the enslavement of the spirit race.'
'Although the universe reset ability of Alister is at the cost of his life, he doesn't seem to care much about death nor the pain of dying. Had he perhaps died too many times even in his previous world to the point that he no longer feared death?'
'He did say that before when I had asked him but he never told me the specific death count he had. Well, all that matters is that he and I are alive for now but the threat regarding the Goddess of Fantasy hasn't been solved yet.'
While Zanna was deep in thought, she noticed that Alister had tapped her arm. She was so absentminded for a while that she didn't notice that the desserts were already served by the elven waiters.
However, if it was in a dangerous situation, even if Zanna was absentminded, she would still be able to instinctively avoid danger so sneak attacks wouldn't work on her.
But the desserts being served weren't a danger to her life so Zanna hadn't noticed it when she was absentminded.
No longer resting her head on the table, Zanna sat properly on her chair and gazed at the desserts presented on the table.
It had been months since she had eaten food. She was often bored when she was waiting for Alister's training in the Sea of Chaos to end so she would often eat food and desserts in the Spirit Palace whenever she wanted.
But the longest time she hadn't eaten food was ten thousand years when she was staying in the Mystic Forest's edge for ten thousand years.
During the hundred years she spent with Alister in the previous timeline, they haven't eaten food.
But now, Alister and Zanna decided to treat themselves to many desserts and sweets.
They didn't have to worry about diabetes and such since it would be too much of a joke if a demigod like them died of mortal diseases. They don't even have any wastes in their body such as feces and such since they could easily destroy it with their mana.
Because of that, the toilets in this world aren't as advanced as it was in the modern world. Since there weren't any Plumb Heroes, only food and some stuff were developed by the heroes.
There were varieties of food due to the Food Hero while agriculture techniques were popularized by several generations of Agriculture Heroes. Various trinkets were sold by the Money Heroes varying from measuring tools to different clothing styles.
Although the Money Heroes hadn't brought over modern clothing, they still managed to improve medieval clothing and made it more elegant and no longer that primitive. The generations of Money Heroes weren't always the same. Some were fashion designers before they were summoned while some were from other professions that could make money.
All in all, the influence of all generations of heroes had developed the Magic Fantasy World to what it is now.
While Alister was eating a slice of magic luteusberry cake and Zanna was eating blueberry parfait, Zanna felt something enter her magic perception range.
Using sound magic to isolate the sounds and prevent others from eavesdropping on her conversation with Alister, Zanna asked, "Alister, have you detected it?"
Slicing a piece of magic luteusberry cake, Alister answered, "You mean that demon general hiding in Reoserin City's tailor shop and acting as the manager there?"
Receiving Alister's answer, Zanna nodded her head, "Yes, that demon general. Do you have any plans of eliminating her?"
Hearing Zanna's words, Alister shook his head, "Why should I eliminate her? Just because she is a demon, doesn't mean she is our enemy."
Faced with Alister's answer, Zanna joked, "Have you gone soft? Is it because the demon general in the tailor shop is a woman? She is even a beautiful and busty succubus."
In response, Alister just ate a piece of magic luteusberry cake and replied, "Maybe, maybe not. All I know is that it's none of my business so I won't kill her unless she offends you or me."
