Under the reminder of "hair", Kirito saw a blond-haired red boy who looked like a trainee nun of the Axiom Church secretly observing him at a distance outside the training ground.

The girl suddenly took Kirito's hand with both hands, pulled him up, put it on her chest, and said in a very serious tone: "Kirito, I forgot what to do with the cream that should be served with the sponge cake, can you tell me?" me?"

Kirito was taken aback. The first time he remembered eating butter in this world was made by Selka after he claimed to be "the lost man of Beikuta" and was taken in by the church in Rulid Village.

But after leaving Rulid Village, from the big city of Sakarya to Altimias's territory outside the central capital and life in Northern Centoria, he has never seen similar cream again. There's butter and cream with sugar and something, but that's not the same thing.

He subconsciously recalled the softness and deliciousness of the food made with cream, thought for a while, and said: "First of all, we should use fresh milk without any additives, freeze the milk while stirring slowly, and it will become like a thin jelly or sorbet. , filter."

"Frozen milk? It seems to be like this, but milk only needs to be frozen once... the taste will go bad... Is it common sense?"

Kirito nodded immediately, and continued to speak at length: "That's right, so it needs to be grasped very precisely. Using ice is not enough. You have to slowly use the sacred technique to put in the frozen element, while stirring steadily and vigorously... Selka's genius sister Alice, who was born in Rulid Village, should be able to do it easily. But the whipped cream obtained in this way is not the kind used to make cream cakes. After filtering, it needs to be stirred with a frother, but This has to be grasped, the more you stir, the thicker it will be, and you have to stop when the surface of the cream has a smooth texture. If the stirring is too intense or the time is too long, a lump of solid will be formed. Although it can be eaten, it can also It is used in some dishes, but it is not used on cream cakes, hehe. No matter which step, the mastery is not easy."

As Kirito talked, he was taken aback for a moment. He remembered that when he was full of praise for Selka's craftsmanship, he heard Selka introduce it with a sense of reminiscence. Is it detailed to this level? Could it be that he met SAO? Got cream-related memories mixed up? But it's a bit strange to mention Alice subconsciously, he doesn't think it's a coincidence or a slip of the tongue, and there's something even stranger—

I am now in the form of a woman, if for some reason this nun knew him in the past and said that he forgot, but she still recognizes him now, wouldn't it be...

But everything can only be confirmed after getting in touch with reality.

"Thank you, so I can remember. Kirito... This is for you." The nun took out a flower from the leather bag on the back and handed it to her.

"This... rose?! It's just a question about cream, how can you accept such a precious thing?!" Kirito knew that rose is one of the four sacred flowers in the human world, and it is an efficient catalyst for sacred arts in this world. A single flower petal combined with a common [healing technique] can instantly reconnect limbs, and strengthening other sacred techniques is also a no-brainer.

"It's different, Kirito, this cake is for the highest priest, so I'm allowed to spend a lot of money."

"This...was given to you by the High Priest?"

"How could I give it? I picked it secretly in her garden."

"...I still don't want it anymore. You really won't be punished like this, who are you?"

"Ah... Sure enough, don't you remember. Kirito, I am Alice Ziberuk. This time I sneaked out in the name of looking for cream. I have to prepare enough materials to go back before six o'clock. Goodbye."

Alice glanced at Kate, who poked her head out of the tree and stared straight at her, then turned and started to run.

She ran more than ten meters before Tong realized it, stretched out his hand and shouted: "You are... Eugeo's childhood sweetheart... even if it's sneaking... don't you want to meet her! He came to the central capital because of you!"

"No, I'm afraid that Eugeo's heart will be disturbed. Anyway... we will meet there soon! Be careful, the reason why the Axiom Church has such authority is not simple." Alice finished speaking without looking back, and ran out out of Kirito's vision.

Kirito suddenly felt a chill, turned around and found that he was still in the direction of the training ground, and Eugeo was looking at this side like a sculpture.

Seven seconds later—

Eugeo walked over like a zombie: "That look... Alice... can't be wrong... I can't be wrong, but why... the eyes that should be bluer than Lake Ruhr... are different..."

Kirito thinks about the possibility of changing the childishness in this world. For example, when he uses the skills that rely on the eyes, his eyes will emit some light. The books in the library have also explained a small amount of theories about the magic of eyes. I heard that Alice is a genius of sacred arts, so this possibility is quite high.

"The girl just came to ask about pastries, nothing special, if she is the person Eugeo-kun is looking for, what are you going to do?" he asked.

But Eugeo lowered his head: "I'm sorry, the trainees of the Axiom Church who went to Rulid Village have already stated that Alice can't leave the Axiom Church. If I do something in my current capacity that will add to the crime... so Just thinking about it makes me unable to move my limbs... What should I do..."

Kirito understands Eugeo's mood to some extent~lightnovelpub.net~ When he went up, he attacked the itching underarm with both hands, hugged him and patted his back and said, "Don't be so discouraged, just for Alice Let An Hao be happy first. This means that she has been waiting for you, and I will accompany you to the end, so let’s obtain the status of being able to walk into the Axiom Church with dignity.”

"Ah, that's right. It seems that I'm still too weak. If it weren't for Kirito, I wouldn't even be able to get out of Rulid Village. Thank you, Kirito."

Just as the two embraced each other almost with tears in their eyes, there was a discordant whistle.

"Hugh—the mere guards and maids are messing around in the sacred sword training academy, which really ruins the reputation of the superior nobles. You say yes, come to His Highness Ios."

"Don't say that, Humbert. While they are both students, those two are also subordinates of His Highness Artemias. His Highness must be very busy at ordinary times, and he has no time to discipline his subordinates. This will happen. Indecent things can be forgiven.”

The gossiping ones were a blond long-haired man and a gray-haired crew-cut man. They were Lyios Antinos of the third class and Humbert Gijack of the fourth class respectively. Kirito was in the same grade as Eugeo. .
