The dishes that came were no different from the meat dishes that were designed quite appealingly. However, what was different was the attitude coming from Verita, who had arguably the most expressive face she had so far when this meal arrived.
Almost all of the foods Lubius tried today were not only delicious but almost all of them could fill Eron's body. However, it could be said that Eron's capacity inside his body was already full. So even if he ate this meal, Lubius doubted it would change anything.
Even so, Lubius sliced the dish meat and put it in his mouth. When he did that he could feel how soft and tender the meat was… It didn't stop there, as the combination of the flavors of the meat and the spices blended together so well that it filled his taste buds.
Then as it slowly passed down his throat and into Lubius' body.
Once again Lubius felt a stream of Eron entering him, which was surprising to him because he already knew that his Eron capacity should be full. However, this piece of meat gave him new Eron and practically swirled inside his body and gave his body a tremendous energy.
Lubius couldn't help but wonder if this was how game characters felt when they got a boost in their stats or restored their HP when given food.
Lubius couldn’t help but put another bite of that meat on his mouth. Once again it gave him such a strong feeling… It was safe to say that the meat he ate gave him something different from the food he tasted tonight.
And it was not at the same level…
Lubius said nothing, but when he turned and looked at Verita. He could see that she was enjoying the reaction he had. She also gracefully ate the dish with a beaming expression on her face.
Then when Lubius finished finishing the meal... The next thing that happened opened Lubius' eyes because he could feel the flow of Eron gathering inside his body before giving a movement that gathered at the center of his body before slowly like a bubble bursting.
Pop…
Before Lubius could feel a strange vibration inside him like a drop of water dripping into a calm puddle. But all that happened to the Eron inside his body before almost all the Eron he had suddenly disappeared. At the same time after what happened Lubius could feel something different in his body.
It had been more than four days since Lubius transmigrated to this world and luckily he transmigrated to his own alternate self in this world. So he didn't feel much difference with his own body. However, after he learned a bit about Eron in this world. The most different and new thing he felt, for some reason he became very sensitive to things related to Eron. Especially when inside his body...
That was why Lubius immediately realized that there was a change in his body, that is, he felt a slight change in the capacity of Eron inside his body. Although it was only a little... it could even be said that it only increased by one glass,
Of course, it could be said that it was something that should make him excited. However, considering what was happening right now made him a little suspicious. Especially given what they just talked about…
However, when Lubius was just thinking like that.
“Ah, you don’t have to worry about this. This is just a reward for me since you make me a day. It's supposed to be for women to give something to men after all... I know that this is something that can make you happy.” Verita said as if she could guess what Lubius was thinking.
It made sense in Lubius' mind that just as a man gave a gift to a woman in his past life in this world of changed moral values, it would not be strange for him to get a gift from a woman who was currently on a blind date.

“Well… this is amazing… But…”
“Uhuhu… Didn't I say you don't need to worry about this. I'm just happy with the time we spent together even if it was only for a short time." Verita spoke with a beaming face.
However, if you consider what kind of place they are eating at with food ingredients that might come from the Labyrinth and could be said to be possibly very expensive. Lubius, who had never received expensive items from people he barely knew, certainly had complicated feelings about this.
‘Is this what you called dating a sugar mommy?’ Lubius couldn’t help to think something like that after all this situation felt like that at least for him.
"Hm, you may doubt me... But I have no other purpose or ulterior motive. After all, this dish has to be prepared, right? So there's no way I can prepare this right away after just talking about capacity with you." Verita explained herself as if she could guess what he was thinking.
Lubius himself felt that all of this was a bit suspicious, but at the same time what Verita was saying was also true. But he couldn’t just take her words at face value.
However, everything in Lubius' mind right now was arguably very difficult to control, especially after he felt the Eron capacity in his body increase even if it was a little and if you looked at it broadly there was no remarkable difference. But at least this was proof that he could get stronger and all this would be easier to obtain if he simply cooperated with the Lucyanti family. At the same time, if he becomes dependent on this family, his freedom may disappear.
Anything can happen...
However, it was hard to stop the excitement of Lubius who wanted to proceed to the easiest plan for him... just by making a deal with this rich woman, and he would probably get a lot of resources and items to become powerful.
The plan was Lubius abandoned in his mind when he experienced how big and powerful Verita was in his own eyes.
There was no way… Lubius would be comfortable around this woman at this moment. This was the first time he had met this woman, but even now he could see that she was very attractive from the conversation they had, and her beautiful and attractive appearance. She also seemed very reasonable. Just what Lubius expected from a woman he could work with.
And to be honest, for a young man like him it was not strange that he sometimes still had the imagination of having an older partner who could spoil them, like having a relationship with a beautiful boss or a beautiful lecturer... Then Verita at this time, who was acting like a sugar mommy, really fit the imagination of a young man who was only twenty years old like Lubius.
This was a very tempting thing... already he could have a sexual relationship with a beautiful woman like Verita, he could also gain a strong connection... A dream life that he could easily achieve, right...
It was just that the suspicion he had of Lucyanti's family kept Lubius from wondering what to expect from all this. The sensible thing would be to at least continue this meeting, because she seemed easy to talk to and reasonable for a rich and important woman, he was very lucky not to get a woman who was spoiled and arrogant.
It was as if Lubius got lucky just like any other reincarnation or transmigration protagonist.
“Hm… Well, that’s a bit of a surprise gift isn’t it? I wonder if there’s something you want… I can buy you some clothing, jewels, or anything you like…” Verita rested her chin on her hand while telling Lubius about this with such a beautiful smile.
Once again, Verita's appearance was so beautiful to Lubius. He would accept all this easily if he at least understood Eron. Well, one of the reasons he couldn't like this woman was because he still didn't understand Eron... especially Eron's ability, especially coming from someone of Verita's caliber which was far from what Lubius had personally seen.
However, when Lubius listened to Verita's offer. He felt that this was the best thing, at least he still had to find out what kind of woman Verita was and whether she was the best connection he could get from the Lucyanti family, because so far he felt there was no benefit in being immediately antagonistic towards them.
That was why Lubius, after thinking for a while, answered Verita's offer.
"Can you accompany me to see what's inside the Labyrinth... Ah... and if possible... I also want to make a video of the incident." Lubius also thought there was no harm in using this opportunity to make a video and start his career in the internet world with a bang.
As for Verita... She was quite taken back by Lubius's answer... before she laughed so hard that her face even turned a little red.
“Well, I say that I will do anything after all. Okay… That’s not that really difficult. We can talk about this. This is my contact.”
To his surprise, Verita simply agreed with Lubius. She also gave Lubius her contact information. After that, nothing interesting happened... but this could be the beginning of Lubius' long journey in this world.
