Warlock Apprentice - Chapter 2063: 2064: Dining

Chapter 2063: Chapter 2064: Dining

Nuka’s emotions were very restrained, so Angel couldn’t perceive its thoughts through emotions, and observing through its expressions was also difficult.

Angel really couldn’t figure out what kind of fluctuations the expressions of a white mouse could have.

However, Nuka didn’t make a direct move against him, which at least means he temporarily muddled through?

Nuka didn’t say any polite greetings, it directly took a seat. After it sat down, the oppressive atmosphere around still didn’t diminish. Judging from the expressions of other guests, they were clearly accustomed to this, perhaps this was Nuka’s usual state?

Like Angel, who had encountered the Legendary Wizard—Frost, he actually didn’t feel any strong sense of oppression from him, because Frost deliberately restrained his aura to avoid accidentally harming outsiders.

Frost’s behavior is a kind of value orientation.

But Nuka is not human, and doesn’t have the constraints of humanity or morality. In the Nightmare Realm where hierarchy itself is severely antagonistic, not restraining his aura actually makes sense.

After all, to Nuka, this kind of aura is natural, just like humans breathing air. On the contrary, Frost’s restraint is a kind of self-imposed limitation.

Understanding this point, Angel felt relieved about the oppressive environment around him, and subconsciously patted the Dalmatian.

Nuka also saw the Dalmatian in Angel’s arms, but it didn’t say anything, only glancing at it before withdrawing its gaze. It seemed to treat everything before it as mundane.

“Since everyone is here, when can we dine?” Perhaps having adapted to Nuka’s oppression, Dawacia was not as trembling as before, and even had the mind to think about eating: “Or do you want lovable Dawacia to turn you into a box of rainbow cake?”

Dawacia stared at the floating Lunatic Tome, full of resentment.

Lunatic glanced at Nuka, and although he didn’t speak, his intention to inquire was clear, and Nuka nodded to him.

After receiving Nuka’s approval, Lunatic didn’t announce the dinner immediately but turned his gaze back to Angel.

Although Angel acted very lazily and casually, he had been paying close attention to every move in the venue. This was to profile the guests’ psychological states and character traits. Consequently, Angel also saw the subtle exchange between Lunatic and Nuka.

With a slight turn of thought, he understood Lunatic’s meaning.

—Probably inquiring whether to start the dinner.

Angel casually nodded.

Seeing this, a glimmer of enlightenment flashed in Lunatic’s huge eyes. He then flipped open the tightly closed book pages, releasing a large number of fireworks and ribbons, and accompanied by a hymn, Lunatic loudly announced: “Dinner begins!”

After the ceremonious celebration, Lunatic opened a new page of “Crazy Wood’s Cultivation Journal”.

No one knew what was recorded on this page, but when Lunatic opened it, it emitted a large amount of colorful light.

These colorful lights formed rainbow bridges in the air, with vast amounts of delicacies appearing and descending upon them.

The dishes on the table immediately grew arms and legs, running back and forth on the table to catch the falling delicacies.

Perhaps they were well-trained, and within tens of seconds, all dish-men returned fully loaded. No one knew what they did while running, but every dish had delicate garnishing.

Five dishes appeared before Angel. At first glance, they were all delicacies, with an enticing aroma, but he couldn’t tell what they were made from.

Angel observed the other guests’ dishes; theirs were different from his. Menavaro’s dish was a mass of sludgy substance, Boiling Gentleman’s food was twisted insects, while Black and White Maid’s dish was even some metallic creations.

It seemed this dinner considered everyone’s tastes.

But Angel didn’t know from what aspect his dishes were considered?

Due to the appearance of food, the chilly banquet suddenly became a bit more lively.

However, it only appeared lively.

Except for Dawacia, almost no one touched the food. They didn’t come to this banquet specifically to eat.

Angel did start eating, but compared to Dawacia’s gluttonous devouring, Angel appeared much more elegant and also much more carefree.

He casually picked up a rainbow-shaped strip cake and put it in his mouth.

Angel didn’t chew, but used some technique to wrap the cake’s exterior with a layer of Nightmare Illusion Breath, pulling it into the Nightmare Realm at the moment it entered his esophagus.

The reason he did this was because Angel didn’t know if the cake was good or bad for him. If it was prepared according to Shava’s standard, Shava might be able to eat it but to him, it would be poison. So, he found a way to pull the food into the Nightmare Realm.

Actually, he could have chosen not to eat, but Angel wanted to maintain an “uninhibited” persona, not eating anything would seem too constrained, and might also offend others.

A bit of casualness actually appeared more free and uninhibited.

But Angel was also worried that his little actions were noticed, especially since Nuka on the opposite side was very likely above Legend. However, he did it anyway because Angel wasn’t alone now, he also had the Dalmatian in his arms…

Due to his high attention to detail, Angel discovered that the Dalmatian could ward against the oppression; also through detailed analysis, Angel clearly felt there was a high-energy range around the Dalmatian that was almost distorted.

Within this range, no oppression or energy could get close, like some kind of Law Domain… or even higher-tier rule, and this rule carried a “unreasonable” absolute enforcement.

Angel was very aware that this “unreasonable” should be a mysterious power.

Because of this, Angel confirmed he wouldn’t be spied on by energy near the Dalmatian, thus performing such operations.

Maybe with Nuka’s strength, it could pierce through the rules released by the Dalmatian, but if Nuka actually did, energy would definitely clash, and Angel could sense it immediately.

However, based on Angel’s current profiling of Nuka, it shouldn’t do this. Because it’s not worth it, Angel represents “Shava”, the Dalmatian represents “Minister Dim”, if energy clashes actually happen, it equals offending two opponents at once.

Sure enough, after Angel consumed the cake, Nuka showed no abnormalities.

Angel didn’t keep eating, he picked a few seemingly representative foods and pulled them into the Nightmare Realm. The rest he casually fed to the Dalmatian.

Angel’s action also prompted other guests to move.

They previously refrained from eating simply because dining before Lord Shava would seem disrespectful. But now that Lord Shava was dining, maintaining restraint would be inappropriate.

With the guests’ moves, the Lunatic Tome floating in the air secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quietly praised Lord Shava.

If Angel hadn’t started eating first, the atmosphere of the banquet would likely be even more rigid. As the banquet host, it would also bear some responsibility.
