CxC Chapter 7: We Need To Cook (Patreon)

~Yuta Yukimura~

Boy was I thankful the items I got from gacha did not immediately just appear and demolish my house. They were instead apparently put in some kind of system storage for me to be able to take them out any time. Some water elementals sounded useful but not exactly useful for me to pop out a whole waterfall over.

Hell, do nymphs even exist in this world?

After a quick search on the Devilnet revealed that, yes, Nymphs did exist in this world and were considered lesser water spirits and popular familiars among young devils. As they got older or gained more magical power they sometimes evolved into Undines.

-Why the fuck do Undines look like they could benchpress a mountain with their muscles alone? Aren't they supposed to be seductive water spirits? Because frankly, looking at their muscles makes me feel insecure.

Putting the nymph waterfall aside, before sleeping I should spend some time abusing my regeneration and building muscles. I quickly made myself a workout routine and started following it.

Of course, due to my limited equipment, I was mostly doing calistenics, do pushups until you can't, then after resting for 5 minutes start doing it again. Did it feel like absolute ass? Yes. Did I still do it? Yes.

The grind does not care for your tears just like how the bank does not care about your pride. Just like how I would be willing to dress up as an anime girl and do an hour-long photo shoot for a silver ticket I would inflict on myself pain to a degree that it could be legally considered torture for gains.

I did every exercise I could think of, squats, pull-ups using doorframes. I also threw in stretches here and there to make myself more flexible. Something I noticed was that Regeneration did not consume as much mana as I thought it would. A quick check with the ability description told me why.

[Uncommon - Regenaration]

|Rarity: Uncommon| |Class: Recovery, Passive|

Allows you to passively slowly regenerate from injuries using mana, the more severe the wound the longer it takes to heal.

Synergy - [Enhanced Vitality]

Regeneration cost is halved.

____________________________

As I thought I had made the right choice. I'd guess it is halved because it's simply easier to heal me so it doesn't need to spend as much energy to accomplish the same healing. Feeling the micro tears in my arms mend themselves was a novel feeling.

I also had to make food in between, not very good food mind you because of how tired I was but I needed the nutrients to grow strong muscles instead of healing them to normal. By the end of the workout, I was positively fucking dead tired. I was so tired that I didn't want to take a shower so...

Snapping my finger I summoned the cloud elemental making her form in front of me with an interested smile.

"Hey, could you give me a quick shower and dry me if you can?" I laid down on the bathroom as the elemental nodded and formed a raincloud over me. Won't that sprinkle take a while-

Then I was blasted by water from the cloud, it washed all over me, almost like a pressure washer of millions of raindrops that are just strong enough to irritate but not enough to injure. Then after I looked like a drowned rat in the middle of my shower I was blasted by warm air like I was in the middle of a hurricane. I looked at my summon who looked at me with a proud expression.

Sigh... I can't get mad at that.

"Cough!" I coughed out a full lungful of water onto the floor. "Thanks for the bath Cloud." After she preened under my praise I unsummoned her and shambled toward my bed, at least I was as dry as any human could be after getting hit by a 60mph hair dryer.

As soon as my body hit the bed I was out like a light.

The school day passed as usual, I was keeping my head down in class, napping and such, playing around with disguise on my desk to disguise the top of it into images. It actually helped me practise precision with my disguise a lot.

I could see the perceptions of the students around me subtly changing, they were looking at me a lot more, more often with appraising and reproachful gases. Not that I really cared about their gossip but it was a tad irritating.

I learned to ignore people when people spread rumours that I was affiliated with a gang back in middle school. I was only kidnapped by them once. And I wasn't even the target, another kid in the school was their target but they nabbed me because I vaguely fit the description.

Still beat the shit out of me for wasting their time but that was just life.

As I was musing, the bell for the end of class finally rang and I was free, Akeno didn't choose to eat lunch with me this time, stating that she wanted to prepare some things. So I just found a quiet corner of the school to sleep in before the lunch break ended. Now, it was the end of school and I would get my cooking lessons. I shudder to imagine food made with Akeno's expertise and Pearl Jam.

I packed my bags and trekked to the ORC and found my way to the kitchen. Yes, the kitchen, this place had a fully furnished kitchen. If I did not know any better I would assume someone was living here full time.

Shaking my head of idle thought I opened the door and entered.

"Alright, Akeno-senpai I'm here-" My words got stuck in my mouth as I saw what was in front of me.

"Ara ara~ you arrived just in time Yuta-kun, I just prepared everything, just put on your apron and we can start the lesson," Akeno said warmly while my mental reset button was pushed.

Akeno was wearing an apron. And only an apron at that. Coherent thought seemed to be a luxury these days it seemed. I managed to find my words in a miracle.

"Akeno-senpai, where are your clothes? Why are you wearing only an apron?" I knew she liked teasing me but isn't this going a bit too far? I didn't mind but I also did not understand. Akeno giggled and turned around.

"I'm still wearing underwear don't worry." As she said, I could see her panties barely containing her large ass, I did not even try to hide my gaze at this point, I could also see her bra straps. "Cooking can often get messy so I usually take my uniform off. Is that a problem?" Hell no.

"...Nope. Totally fine. No complaints here." I was not going to raise objections or ask further, do not look that gift horse in the mouth, I grabbed the apron handed to me by Akeno and quickly donned it, only staring at Akeno's ample cleavage moderately.

"Oh my~ you sure are eager aren't you? Well, let's start with picking our ingredients and preparing them." Akeno turned to the fridge in the room and opened the fridge door and leaned to grab something, presenting her plush ass to me fully, I could even make out the traces of her pussy through the strained fabric.

Oh my Satan give me strength to be able to finish this lesson without making an absolute fool of myself.

♢—•♧•—♤—•♡•—♤—•♧•—♢

Turns, Satan, whoever he was, was a pretty chill guy since he gave me the strength I needed to not make a fool of myself.

Sure, I was caught staring at Akeno many times and had to turn my gaze away awkwardly but I managed to restrain myself well enough. And surprisingly enough, even though Akeno was obviously dressed to tease she was also serious about giving me the lesson.

She showed me how to prepare my ingredients, how long I needed to cook something to get the consistency I wanted etc.

She was a good teacher when she wasn't trying to get a reaction out of me. According to Akeno cooking was equal parts precision and eyeballing. In some parts, you had to be precise to get the results you wanted but in other parts, it was best to do what you felt like was the best.

I felt like I learned a lot under Akeno, at the end of the lesson Akeno hung back and watched me finish up the egg-fried rice. At the end, I felt Pearl Jam enter the food at my command as I made them give the food the property of getting rid of exhaustion and tiredness. Looking at the plate of food in my hands in pride I presented it to Akeno.

"What do you think Akeno-senpai?"

"Oh my~ this looks quite good Yuta-kun, good job. I am really eager to see your ability for myself. Let's have a taste." Akeno used a spoon and dug into my food and took a bit and then...

"Mhh~~!" She... moaned? I could see her legs clench together for a second as Akeno braced against the table.

Huh?

"Mh~ the food you make really is dangerous Yuta-kun." Huh? "This really hit the spot, I was feeling rather tired recently. You have a very impressive ability." Akeno stretched after saying that while I stared at her busty form. Hesitantly I reached for the spoon and took a bite.

Mh.

That tastes good. Not like, cum in my pants instantly good but it tastes like a hot meal after a long and hard day at work.

We ate the plate of egg-fried rice in silence as Akeno made noises of delight. At the end, we washed the dishes and put them away and then Akeno.

"Thank you for the food Yuta-kun. I think you deserve it." I got flustered a little, with how much she was teasing me what was her reward going to be? As my mind rushed a million miles a minute Akeno leaned in.

Chu.

And planted a kiss on my cheek.

"Ara~ ara~ Yuta-kun, did you expect something else? You naughty boy." I looked at Akeno with dead eyes.

"Senpai, you are a cruel mistress."

"Ufufufu~"

Bad news, I did not get any contracts today. Good news, impressing Akeno with my cooking counted as an achievement, regardless of how minor it was.

This lit a spark in me, doesn't this mean I could potentially get a better ticket for making someone truly foodgasm? Maybe making a princess like Rias foodgasm would even give me a gold ticket.

I rolled the ticket, I had a preference for waiting until home to roll my tickets so that I could freak out in peace.

A/N: Akeno, we need to cook!

uta is settling into a routine and building himself up, making use of every tool at his disposal, regeneration and Pearl Jam for good food, Cloud Waifu for a quick shower and his peerage seniors for advice and help.

Also, Akeno is being Akeno as always, and especially with the Helltaker Trait. She is on the prowl for some fresh meat and Yuta is wagyu. What did you guys think about the cooking lesson with Akeno? I'd love to hear your thoughts about it.
