Volume 6.5 Chapter 72: New Menu Item Instant Hit!

"Why are you holding onto my legs?!" Keith groaned. It was not Herrick, Melor, or Jack who were doing this. The one holding him down this time was Nephele.

"I don't want you to leave," Anyone else would have buckled by a beautiful girl begging. Actually, Keith might've been smited if anyone else saw.

"Come on, don't be like this." Keith scratched his head. Alfia and Faelyn were on the side but didn't know what to do. His words only caused Nephele to hold tighter, "Please! Make more!"

"Don't cause trouble for Keith!" "Mmhmm." Before the great spirit could do anything weird, Diana and Udine pulled her back.

"Good luck out there, Keith."

"Mmhmm." As was his routine, he returned to the same space the next day. However, upon arrival, he was met with a sight far from routine.

Is it just me, or are there more people here? Keith blinked. What he saw in front of him was more customers. It was at least twice the number of those from yesterday. Yet, that was not what was surprising about this. The thing that amazed him was that most of the customers were females.

Why were they all here? His customers, typically a 75 to 25 ratio, with males being the majority, had dramatically shifted. This time, it was a staggering 8 to 2, with women dominating the scene. Cedric and the others were unceremoniously pushed out to the side.

"Keith!"

"Hello, Shakti." Shakti had become a regular at his cart. She would come here at least once a week to eat.

"Do you have the food on hand?!" Without answering Keith's greeting, Shakti grabbed his shoulders.

Keith tilted his head, "Hmm?"

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.

"The smoked melon! Do you have any?!" Shakti's eyes changed; it was like a vicious beast. And she was not alone as well. The other females had crazed looks as well. When all of them were together like this, there was no way Keith wasn't afraid!

"Ahh, I do have some. However, it's only 30." Keith scratched his head as he explained. The moment he said this, the bell rang. His words caused Shakti and the other ladies to get closer to him, "Please get to work!"

"...Sure." Keith looked over to the side where Cedric and the others were. Help me out! That was the expression he had. However, the group only shook their heads.

We're not going to be a part of this! They want no part of getting in their way!

"Hah, please make way for me to set up." Keith sighed as he started to get to work. The ladies all ordered one serving of smoked melon. Having some leeway,

"Titus, can you tell me what's going on?" Some of his party members also ordered.

"Your new dish is quite the hit with the ladies."

"I don't even know how it became such a hit." That was a mystery for the guy. That caused Groa and the others to scoff,

"Of course, it has to do with that dish! It's really weight-friendly." But the moment Groa shouted this, Morgan and the others glared.

"Huh?! Did someone say weight?"

"Who said it!"

"It had to be that Bearman!"

All those glares were directed at Groa!

"Pretend that I never existed!" Groa quickly took a step back when he was met with their glares. Cedric and the others shook their heads. This fool. Why would you say something like that? That was the worst thing to say.

Galven got close to Keith and explained, "Those smoked melons are really good with weight and such. However, it was quite bitter and bland."

"I see." Keith clapped his hands together. It did make sense; the calories smoked melon had compared to the others were much different. It was health-friendly.

Keith continued to cook like this. But when he was finished,

"Keith, how about you live with me?" Shakti quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him over.

"Eh?"

"When you cook like that, I don't have to worry about anything!" If she could eat this food every day, that would mean her life was set! There was nothing to worry about.

Boop! But what she got was a smake to the head!

"Sorry about this fool. Just treat her words like a fool."

"But Keith!" Shakti continued to call out. But Keith could only wave his hand. Not going to get close to that.

"But Keith, how did you make it taste like this?" Titus was a little surprised. But Keith grinned, "Secret. I'm going to head out now!"
