The Novel's Extra (0-100)

Chapter 96 - Initiation (3)

I came to a steakhouse with Evandel. It was supposedly a famous restaurant and as expected, it was jam-packed with people.

"I'll help you with your order."

"Ah, yes, can we have eight steaks in the most expensive order."

"...Yes?"

The waiter tilted his head. Evandel and I could easily finish eight dishes. Three for me, five for Evandel.

"Eight?"

"Yes, and all in medium please."

"Uh... yes."

After ordering, I noticed that other customers were giving us strange looks. Even though Seoul had many foreigners, it seemed Evandel's appearance naturally drew people's attention. For this reason, I didn't take off my sunglasses. That way, people would think Evandel was a child of a Western noble and I was her guard or attendant.

"Here you go. This is garlic steak."

Our first order came out, a steak accompanied with garlic. Evandel's eyes glistened at the steak's savory smell and appetizing plating. I cut the steak in bite-sized chunks and gave it to Evandel.

Evandel's hands trembled in excitement as she stabbed her fork into one.

Then, a piece of steak entered her mouth.

"...!"

Evandel quivered with a face of ecstasy. Afterwards, her hand busily moved from piece to piece.

I stared at her silently, then spoke when I saw the chance.

"Evandel, do you think you could stay home alone for the weekend?"

Evandel, who was chewing on a piece of steak, suddenly stopped. She looked up at me silently. She wasn't chewing on the steak in her mouth and was only staring at me with a fork in hand.

For some reason, I felt uneasy. To think she would stop eating.... She's not going to cry, right?

"...In exchange!"

I spoke up before I could confirm my suspicion.

"I'll buy lots of toys for you today."

"...Lots?"

"Yes, lots."

I was overflowing with money, so I planned on buying anything and everything as long as they could keep her company.

Evandel looked at me, then nodded with a half-sulking, half-sad face. She stopped eating steak. When she was about to put her fork down....

"Next is the Tomahawk steak."

The waiter brought a gigantic piece of meat. It had an overwhelming size that was just as big as Evandel's head.

"Uwhoa! What's this!!"

Evandel quickly regained her energy.

After eating at the steakhouse, we went to the New World Shopping Mall.

At first, I planned to take her to the floor selling toys. However, Evandel fixed her attention on a strange place. Evandel stared at this place silently and didn't respond to me calling her.

What caught her attention was a pet store on the first floor and a white cat sitting in a glass cage.

"...."

In a daze, Evandel exchanged looks with the cat. I also turned my attention to the pet store. Admittedly, the white kitten was adorable.

Cat... I immediately calculated the size of my dorm room.
