I, Yuhaka, am hungry!

...............

On Rhodes Island's large research ship, Kal'tsit sat in a chair in her office/laboratory, looking at the comprehensive medical examination data about Yhaka that Red had just sent her. Kal'tsit raised her eyebrows as she looked at the data from Yhaka's comprehensive medical examination.

Physical strength, battlefield mobility, and physiological endurance are all rated as excellent. It seems that the child has outstanding physical performance. Even Rhodes Island only has a few operators who can achieve such a high rating.

Kal'tsit watched the video that Red had copied from the Penguin Training Grounds, which recorded Ehka's comprehensive physical examination test. Through those videos, Kal'tsit understood why Ehka's strength could be described as "outstanding".

However, although Yuhaka performed very well in the three comprehensive physical examination tests mentioned above, his performance in the next three comprehensive physical examination tests was not so good.

The tactical planning score is "deficient" (tentative). Kal'tsit learned through some means that Yhaka in the video seemed to be illiterate. Kal'tsit suspected that Yhaka might not have received any education, since even villagers in slums or remote rural areas can read a few words.

But Ehaka's behavior suggested he had never received any knowledge, leading Kal'tsit to suspect that Ehaka might have grown up in a completely isolated environment...

Kal'tsit's assessment of Yhaka's combat skills is so-so. From the video of Yhaka's fight with Texas, it can be seen that Yhaka was simply swinging his arms wildly. However, as the saying goes, even a novice can defeat a master with a flurry of punches. With Yhaka's terrifying strength, physique, and speed, he only needs a sturdy enough weapon to take down a large group of combatants.

Skadi on Rhodes Island is the same. Skadi wields a greatsword like she's hitting a golf ball, unleashing terrifying power akin to a tank. She doesn't need any swordsmanship; she can easily destroy fortresses and buildings simply by swinging her weapon.

To be honest, Kal'tsit thought that if she were given sturdy weapons and taught combat skills, she might become a second Skadi.

The final comprehensive physical examination, the Originium Arts adaptability assessment, was the one that Kal'tsit found most puzzling. Ehaka's assessment level was "deficiency." Kal'tsit had originally thought that Ehaka, like Skadi, lacked understanding of Originium Arts and therefore couldn't use them.

However, in Warfarin's report and review, Kal'tsit saw that Yuhaka used Originium Arts (Electric) on Warfarin and paralyzed her on the ground.

Kal'tsit frowned slightly. In the video from the Penguin Logistics training ground that Red sent back, there was a test staff used by Ehaka to use Originium Arts, but unfortunately, Kal'tsit did not find any indication that Ehaka could use Originium Arts.

Kal'tsit picked up Warfarin's report and immediately felt something was off. If the child didn't know Originium Arts, then why was he able to unleash Originium Arts (electricity)? Could Warfarin have misread it?

That shouldn't be the case... When Kal'tsit called Warfarin back, she saw that Warfarin's whole body looked like it had been electrocuted. It's impossible that Warfarin would let herself be electrocuted just to make up this lie, right?

However, when Kal'tsit thought about how Warfarin had specifically bought 200 doses of sleeping pills for Skadi when she was investigating her last time, she immediately felt that Warfarin might be making something up, and the more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

Kal'tsit then opened the communicator beside her and spoke to the person on the other end:

"Ansel, have Warfarin come to me."

………………

In a large supermarket in Lungmen, Yuhaka and Texas were browsing books in a bookstore.

Exusiai was looking at a book about gun-type weapons from Laterano, while Croissant was looking at a weekly magazine featuring food reports, and Texas and Ehka were looking at children's books.

"This one is fine, this one is also acceptable."

Texas said this while holding up two children's books that teach children to read, while Yuhaka, standing next to Texas, curiously looked around the bookstore filled with books, and Yuhaka was particularly interested in the books placed next to the children's books.

That's right! The books placed next to the children's books are cookbooks!!

Yuhaka's eyes lit up as she looked at the cookbooks, and even Texas, standing nearby, noticed her behavior. Texas looked at Yuhaka with a hint of confusion and said:

"What's wrong, Youyou? Are you interested in those cookbooks?"

Upon hearing Texas's words, Yuhaka nodded her little head vigorously. Seeing Yuhaka's reaction, Texas also remembered that the omelet she made this morning seemed to have been made by Yuhaka. Could it be that Yuhaka is very good at cooking?

"Alright, let's choose a few cookbooks then, but before that, Youyou, you must learn to read."

Yuhaka hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement with Texas. Seeing Yuhaka nod, Texas smiled, patted Yuhaka's head, and said:

"Okay, let's go to the same buffet restaurant we had last time today."

Chapter 97 [Let's go for barbecue tonight~ (leaning back)]

"Huh? What do you mean we're not allowed to eat in this restaurant?!"

"That's it!"

Exusiai and Croissant looked at the buffet restaurant manager, who was sweating profusely and had a "this is so hard" expression on his face, with displeasure. They quickly waved their hands and said to Exusiai and Croissant:

"No, no, no! Ladies and gentlemen, it's not that I don't want you to eat here, but last time you ate too much and our little shop has already suffered serious losses. If you eat a lot of food like last time, my little shop will have to close down tomorrow!"

Hearing the words of the buffet restaurant manager, Texas and the others inadvertently recalled that last time, Yuhaka ate nearly a third of the buffet's food in one go. It seemed... a bit too much, didn't it?

However, the manager of the buffet restaurant didn't have them kicked out. Instead, he took out several discount coupons for the buffet barbecue restaurant and handed them to Texas and her, saying:

"So please go to the all-you-can-eat barbecue restaurant on the other side of the street."

Texas and her friends looked at the buffet restaurant manager, who was practically begging them to leave, with a sense of helplessness. Although it sounded unreasonable, they weren't some kind of evil (hungry) people who wanted to bully ordinary people.

Texas sighed helplessly and said to Exusiai and Croissant:

"Alright, Exusiai, Croissant, let's go. Anyway, there's more than one buffet restaurant in Lungmen. It's getting late, let's go to the next one when we see it."

As she spoke, Texas pulled Yuhaka, who looked reluctant, toward another buffet restaurant. Exusiai and Croissant exchanged a glance, then gave the buffet restaurant manager an international hand gesture and left. The buffet restaurant manager breathed a sigh of relief after seeing the gluttonous guy leave.

However, Croissant, who had originally left, ran back and, before the buffet restaurant manager could react, snatched several buffet barbecue restaurant coupons from his hand and left the buffet restaurant without looking back.

Only the buffet restaurant manager remained, looking completely bewildered as the croissant sped away, standing by the doorway enjoying the cool breeze.

................

As Yuhaka, Texas, and the others moved to other buffet restaurants, they were stopped again, just like at the previous buffet restaurant. Texas and the others then went to another buffet restaurant, and unsurprisingly, they were stopped again.

"Tsk... I knew it..."

Texas looked at the animated pictures of Yhaka feasting on the forum on her phone. In the pictures, Yhaka was surrounded by a large number of clean bones and shells, as well as a lot of fruit peels. Yhaka looked like a gluttonous baby.

Moreover, many netizens left comments under the photos, some saying that Yuhaka is cute, some saying that they can't afford to keep Yuhaka, and a few netizens who own buffet restaurants immediately issued a notice prohibiting Yuhaka from entering.

Although it doesn't make sense, if you were running your own buffet restaurant, you certainly wouldn't want your business to be in the red every day.

"Looks like it's spread all over the internet. These silly netizens really have nothing better to do than..."

Exusiai, standing to the side, looked at the content displayed on Texas's phone with a troubled expression. Texas closed the forum on her phone, snorted coldly, and said:

"If you don't have the ability to run a buffet restaurant, you might as well just open a fast food restaurant."

Yuhaka, standing to the side, looked at Texas with a puzzled expression and said to her in a soft voice:

"Texas... Yu-Yu, did you... do something wrong?"

Seeing Yuhaka's expression, Texas felt a pang of guilt. She gently patted Yuhaka's head and said to her:

"Youyou didn't do anything wrong, the adults are the ones who are wrong."

Exusiai, standing to the side, stared at Texas with a dumbfounded expression. To be honest, during the time she worked with Texas, Exusiai rarely saw Texas with any other expression. Under normal circumstances, Texas was taciturn and calm.

To be honest, this is the first time Exusiai has seen Texas with a smiling face today. Could it be because of Ehaka?

Exusiai looked at Texas and Ehaka, who looked like sisters, for a while, and then her eyes suddenly sharpened. It seemed that Exusiai had understood something.

Meanwhile, Croissant, oblivious to Exusiai's change in expression, held her Magnetic Storm Hammer and looked into the distance, saying to Texas and the others:

"It looks like we won't be able to eat at the buffet today. Where should we go for dinner tonight?"

Hearing Croissant's words, the people present began to think. Texas stroked her chin and said to the others:

"Hmm... I should buy some groceries and cook at home. The restaurants should be very busy at this time, and Sora should be back from the agency soon."

Upon hearing Texas's words, Exusiai pondered for a moment, then, as if struck by a thought, said to Texas:

"How about... barbecue tonight?"

Croissant, who was standing nearby, immediately lit up when she heard Exusiai's idea, clapped her hands, and said:

"Oh! That's a great idea! Texas, let's have a barbecue party, and we can also throw a welcome party for Yoyo-chan, wouldn't that be nice!?"

Upon hearing Croissant's words, Texas glanced at Yuhaka, who was looking at her with bright eyes, and nodded in agreement with Exusiai and Croissant's idea. Seeing that Texas had agreed, Exusiai and Croissant excitedly gave each other a high five. However, Texas's next words immediately stunned Exusiai and Croissant.

"By the way, because of some minor issues with the farmers in Longmen, meat prices will be much higher than before in the next few months."

Upon hearing Texas's words, Exusiai and Croissant also looked a little pained. Although their salaries had been paid, paying for a meal that would satisfy Yhwach would probably be a huge financial burden for them.

"Gurgle! Although it hurts a little, I'm going all out to welcome Youyou. I'll just eat less apple pie this month if necessary."

Croissant, who was standing to the side, nodded and said:

"Me too. At worst, I'll just sell more goods in a few months and earn the money back!"

Yuhaka, standing to the side, looked at Exusiai and Croissant with a puzzled expression and said:

"Youyou, yes, there's some meat on you~"

"Huh? ×3"

Chapter 98 [What's Under Youyou's Skirt?]

The rooftop of their apartment building in Texas was different from typical apartment rooftops. It had a nice lawn and some trees, making it feel like being in a park.

On the rooftop of this apartment building, which resembled a park, Texas and her group stared at Yuhaka with shocked expressions.

Yuhaka: "Hey!"

Yuhaka pulled a large piece of herbivorous dragon cub rib meat from under her skirt and placed it on the table.

"??"

Texas and the others looked puzzled as Yuhaka pulled something out of her skirt, seemingly not quite understanding what was happening.

Yuhaka: "Yo!"

Then Yuhaka took a large piece of herbivorous dragon tenderloin from under her skirt and placed it on the table.

"???"

When Texas saw Yuhaka pull something out of her skirt again, everyone had a "black guy with a question mark.jpg" look on their faces. This time they realized what was going on, but they didn't understand how Yuhaka could pull such a big piece of meat out from under her skirt. Even the Pocky that Texas was holding in her mouth was so shocked that it fell off.

"Hmm!"

"Wait a minute! ×2"

Just as Yuhaka was about to pull something out from under her skirt, Exusiai and Croissant jumped out and stopped her.

"?"

Yuhaka, who had been stopped, looked at Exusiai and Croissant with a puzzled expression. Then, Exusiai and Croissant pulled up Yuhaka's skirt and found... nothing there.

"Huh??" "O_O?"

Exusiai and Croissant looked on in bewilderment as they saw nothing but blue and white striped panties and delicate legs under Yuhaka's skirt.

"No? How is that possible?? Why isn't there a dimensional pocket under this skirt?? Could it be inside the panties?!"

"Then, Youyou, take off your panties and let me see!"

As the two were about to pull down Yuhaka's panties, Texas raised her fist and gave Exusiai and Croissant a sharp rap on the head, knocking them both to the ground with smoke coming out of their heads.

Texas looked at Exusiai and Croissant, who were lying motionless on the ground with their butts sticking up, with a look of utter disappointment, and said:

"I'm telling you, you're all idiots. We bought the clothes, how could they possibly have some kind of dimensional pocket or anything like that?"
