People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Seeing Nami's excitement, Cerberus and the others were also excited. Most of them had never swum before. Seriously? Swimming in hell? Lava?

As for Riven, she has definitely swum before, but that was for escaping and fighting. She has never had the experience of swimming in such a clean, huge pool.

As for Gurefia, her family does have a swimming pool, but... she's never been to one. From a young age, she focused on various talents and etiquette, and once she grew up a bit, she went off to practice combat. She's never been to a swimming pool or a beach.

Hancock crossed her arms and said, "Hmm! It looks pretty good, but is there only one pool?"

Seeing that Shiraha wasn't there, Zou-ryuin Shion boldly lit a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, and said, "Of course not, see that building over there?"

Following the direction of Shion's hand, everyone saw a building that was neither too big nor too small. Riven scratched her head and asked, "What's that?"

"The stadium, there's a tennis court on one floor, a bowling alley on another, a billiards and bar on another, and an indoor swimming pool on yet another... I can't remember. Sheath Fragrance drank too much and hasn't gotten up yet, so I don't know either."

Nami's eyes lit up and she exclaimed, "Wow! An entire building like that! That's amazing!"

Soryuin Shion nodded and said, "That's right. It's better to relax and unwind at home indoors, but if you want to go out and have fun together, it's better to do it in the yard. You can have a barbecue there, rest when you're tired, and eat when you're hungry."

"This is good!"

Nami asked with some confusion, "So, when are we going to the beach?"

"With so many of us here, and in a popular tourist spot, especially in a foreign country, there's bound to be people trying to chat us up. Plus, foreign girls are generally more outgoing. Do you think Bai Yu will be approached like this if you want to spend a day on the beach?"

"I don't want to!"

"That's right. Besides, how could we let outsiders have the privilege of wearing swimsuits? I've rented a private beach, and we'll take a boat there tomorrow. That whole beach is ours, and there's also a charming little hotel that's like a resort hotel that's included."

"Oh!" xn

Yuno Gasai tilted her head and said, "It's not cheap, is it?"

"It's quite cheap. There are many small islands around, and many wealthy people do this. We came early, and I booked early, so it was cheap. If you book a few days later, you'd be lucky to even get a private beach or a boat!"

Tsunade sighed and said, "This is the world of the rich. I can't understand it."

"It's alright. Actually, many things or items that you think are very expensive are actually very cheap, but the subsequent price is very high."

Eirin Yagokoro asked in confusion, "For example?"

"For example, airplanes are not very expensive for people with a little money, but the costs of parking at the airport, maintenance, fuel, routes, pilots, flight attendants, and so on all cost money, and that's what makes them expensive."

"For example... yachts, although they are quite expensive, there are also the boat docking fees, even more expensive fuel costs, and all sorts of other expenses. Luxury homes are not very expensive, but the property management, utilities, home maintenance, and so on, are what gradually become expensive."

Eirin Yagokoro thought for a moment and said, "So what I'm saying is that many things aren't actually priced so high that they're unacceptable, but the additional costs associated with the product are what make many people give up on buying it?"

"That's right. Luxury homes in China, and estates in particularly developed cities, have annual property management fees that are unimaginable. So, the reason these things are expensive is not their intrinsic value but their future value."

"Compared to these items that you can use permanently after buying them, those that you buy just for their pretty necklaces, antiques, etc., are the ones that are really expensive. You know, a necklace can cost tens of millions, enough to buy a small airplane. You may not need to spend that much money after buying it, but people who don't know its value don't realize how much it costs. Isn't that a loss?"

"Hmm..." xn

Chapter Ninety-Seven: Which Mrs. Bai Wants to Tell Lucifer the Truth? (Please Subscribe~)

In fact, most luxury items are called luxury items because they are not actually necessities, but they are extremely expensive.

Luxury homes are expensive, cruise ships are expensive, ranches are expensive, vineyards are expensive, private jets are expensive, often costing tens of millions, even hundreds of millions, but...

When you see these things, you usually think, "Wow! This must be worth hundreds of millions! You must have to give away hundreds of millions to people you know!" But in reality, it's not that exaggerated.

However, these are indeed things you can use in your life. Living in a mansion is comfortable, a vineyard can make money, a ranch is the same, and a private jet is convenient. But the subsequent maintenance and other costs are very high, which is why many moderately wealthy people are reluctant to buy them, and that's why they feel they are very expensive.

On the contrary, antiques and jewelry such as necklaces with this gemstone and that diamond are often overpriced, and those who don't know their value really can't tell the price. The most important thing is that they are not really useful except for collection and appreciation, which has led to many truly wealthy people.

Unless they have too much money to burn, they won't buy easily, unless they really like it, especially since most of them don't have much appreciation potential... But usually, they end up getting ripped off. (Suzuki family: Hmm? Just call me out.)

In the other room, Lucifer raised an eyebrow, then suddenly sat up, grabbed a pillow, and slammed it hard to the side.

"Ah! Lucy! Are you crazy?!"

"Are you crazy, Gentian?! You've put your foot on my face!"

"I...I didn't mean to...Huh? Huh?! Kirari! Are you trying to choke me?!"

"Hmm... Ah... It's already so early... This... Albedo! What's with that expression?!"

Lucifer and the others all looked at the person with a cushion under their waist, looking up with a strange smile, one hand covering their stomach, staring straight at the ceiling. Lucifer and the others were startled and quickly moved to the side, clutching their waist.

Albedo looked up and smiled, saying, "I..."

"Hmm?"

"This life has been worth it..."

Lucifer and the others twitched at the corners of their mouths. Good heavens, this is truly outrageous! Pandemonica rubbed her eyes, propped herself up on her back, and sat to the side, hugging a pillow as she whispered, "None of that matters... the important thing is... my back hurts so much..."

Yuko Ichihara, clutching her waist, said, "It hurts too... Thank goodness for Kraki and Dekkera! Heroes!"

With her hair all messy, Kraki wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth and said irritably, "You guys are such good sisters! You're all so caring and considerate! And we're the last ones to arrive!"

Dekla, who was lying to one side, sighed and said, "I thought there would be no problem, but... Klaqi, you were right. These guys are so disloyal!"

Kirari waved her hand and said, "Eh? That's not right. Isn't this just natural? After all, we're husband and wife."

Pandemonica said softly, "Please say, engaged couple."

"It's the same thing; being meticulous actually puts you at a disadvantage in this matter, doesn't it?"

Yuuko Ichihara leaned against the headboard and said with a smile, "Yeah! That makes sense. After all, these days when we go out, aren't we all called 'Madam' or 'Mrs.'? It feels amazing!"

Klaqi suddenly chuckled and said, "That's true. When people called me Mrs. Klaqi before, oh my god, you have no idea how excited I was!"

Kobayashi Rindou grinned and said, "That's not the point. It'll get interesting when she actually gets married."

"How so?"

Kobayashi Rindou said with a smile, "If we really get married, let's not talk about whether or not we should take each other's surnames. That's already been said. It's up to us to decide. After all, it's strange for Westerners to change their surnames or even their three-character names. But when we go out, we'll still be Mrs. Bai, right?"

Albedo sat up abruptly, her eyes shining, and exclaimed, "Mrs. White?! I love that title!"

Lucifer chuckled and said, "They should all like it, but Albedo, you'd better behave yourself. I heard a crack when you stood up just now. Is your back alright...?"

"I'm fine! Keep going, and then what? And then what?"

"Then if someone calls out 'Mrs. Bai'... who are they talking about?"

Everyone paused for a moment, then they all pictured the same scene: several girlfriends going shopping together, bumping into an acquaintance who called out "Mrs. Bai," and then all of them turning their heads away, even Pandemonica chuckled.

Zdelada leaned against the headboard, lit a cigarette, grinned, and said, "This seems interesting... But as expected of Bai Yu, he can even get up early to prepare breakfast."

Albedo gently rubbed her belly and said, "Yes! Master is the best!"

"Master?" x3

Kraki, Dekkera, and Kirari were all taken aback, as was Albedo. Lucifer sighed and said, "There's nothing we can do about it... It's come to this point already, why don't we talk to them beforehand?"

Kobayashi Rindou thought for a moment and said, "But... wasn't it agreed that it would be given to Shiraha to say?"

"There's nothing we can do, isn't there? Albedo was too excited and said the wrong thing. Besides... there's no difference if we just said it directly, right? Aren't there Shion and Yumiko?"

"That's true... Let's talk about it then. We must take the opportunity to ask Bai Yu for a reward later, otherwise we'll be at a loss for helping him with his work!"

Lucifer thought for a moment and said, "Hmm...that makes sense...let's do it this way!"

Kirari asked in confusion, "What? What did Bai Yu say you said? What is it? What secret do you have to tell us? Why are you being so mysterious? What did Albedo mean by what she just said?"

Klaqi nodded as well. As mature women, both Klaqi and Dekla felt that things were not simple and that something big might be about to happen.

Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Yuuko Ichihara and the others, and then said softly, "Kirori, Klara, Deklara, what I'm about to tell you must never be told to anyone else, understand?"

"Eh?" x3

"Can it be done?"

"Yeah!" x3

Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Three Surprised, Kirari's Plea (Please Subscribe~)

Klara and the other two looked puzzled, but they still obediently knelt to the side, one hand on their waist, watching Lucifer and the others.

These sisters, with whom she would spend the rest of her life, were closer than blood sisters, especially after the previous infiltration and raid.

They knew these sisters well. Although they were all mature and queenly, they were also like spoiled brats and quite arrogant. Their serious demeanor surprised them.

Lucifer breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Haven't you been curious about two things? That is, why don't Yuuko and I rest during the day since we're always at the shop?"

Klaqi asked in confusion, "Don't you guys go to bed in the middle of the night?"

"No, none of us rest."

"Eh?!" x3

Dekkera quickly said, "This won't last! It'll cause problems! Wait... what about Bai Yu?!"

"Of course he never rests either; for him, lying down for a good night's sleep is a rare occurrence."

Kira frowned and said, "How can this be? It will ruin your health. No, we can't go on like this! I'm worried about my husband."

Klaqi and Dekla nodded repeatedly, and Yuko Ichihara smiled and said, "We don't need sleep, and strictly speaking, we don't even need food."

Kraki paused for a moment before saying irritably, "Do you think you're magicians or gods? You can't joke like that!"

Kobayashi Rindou said with a smile, "But in fact, they really do know magic!"

"Eh?!" x3

Kirari said in disbelief, "What? Magic? Are you kidding me?"

Lucifer chuckled and casually flicked his finger. The next moment, he saw Kirari floating in the air. Kirari was stunned and said in disbelief, "What...what is this?!"

"Magic!"

Kraki swallowed hard and said, "No...no way...what happened?!"

Lucifer put Kiroli down, looked at the three shocked people, smiled, and said, "Let me reintroduce you!"

"Eh?" x3

Lucifer chuckled, and a tail suddenly appeared behind him, smiling as it said, "Former Archangel Lucifer, current Queen of Hell Lucifer, is a demon, but you could also consider him a god!"

"Eh?" x3

Yuuko Ichihara, with a smile, twirled her long hair and said, "Yuuko Ichihara, this is now my real name. She is a witch from another dimension, who can freely travel between dimensions and create gods with magic. She is a real witch."

"Huh?!" x3

"Different world?!"

Ignoring Kirari's words, Albedo suddenly spread her wings and laughed, saying, "The steward of the Great Tomb of Nazarick in another world is a demon!"

Pandemonica chuckled, ruffling her hair, and said, "Pandmonica, the customer service representative from Hell, is a demon..."

“Zdelada, as you can see, our company is full of demons.”

All three of them were dumbfounded, even Kirari was stunned. Kirari swallowed hard and said, "Hell...so...the company you were talking about before is...hell?!"

Lucifer grinned and nodded. Kraki swallowed hard and said, "So, businesses like transportation... are like going to hell?"

"That's right!"

Dekker covered her face and said, "If I didn't know who you people were, I would have been scared to death... You really have overturned my impression of demons. Lucy, you are actually the queen?!"

Lucifer chuckled and said, "Of course, now you know, we don't need sleep."

Kirari quickly asked, "Then... what about Shiraha? And what about the other world... what do all that mean?"

Yuko Ichihara said with a smile, "You accepted it pretty quickly."

"I can't help but be fast..."

Do you know the store's secret?

"What secret?" x3

After Lucifer recounted the events of the other world, the guests from that world, and Bai Yu's invincible power, the three of them stared at Lucifer in disbelief, their expressions filled with surprise and shock.

Kobayashi Rindou laughed and said, "It's amazing, isn't it? I was like that too. I even spent two days looking at shops. You guys remember Klara, right? It was after the day I went on my date."

"So that's why you had to mind the shop! Is that why?!"

Kobayashi Rindou smiled and nodded. Kirari said blankly, "I thought Shiraha was already very powerful... but I didn't expect it to be just the tip of the iceberg... You can't find another man like him in any world... My husband is actually like this? Am I... am I too lucky?"
