And what a good decision that was, as who would’ve expected the onset of addiction?!
Well, everyone but the little cook, Luca.
For the moment, the taste testers took their first bite. They knew that this alone could start a revolution or ten.
And if anything, Jax had even been more resolute in heading out to farm for corruption so that they could finally do something about their butter problem.
For everything this butter touched resonated with his soul.
So, if these more cultured food tasters liked it, what more for the others who were new to the concept of such food?! freewebnovel.cσ๓
This was precisely why the Patriarchs of the Empire’s Dukedoms were in complete attendance, save for Duke Leander, who purposely couldn’t attend unless he wanted to be asked questions until his life withered away.
For one, Duke Caius Azren had an inkling the moment he saw the fruits. Thankfully, he was one of those who maintained a warhorse as his beloved pet.
However, how he’d be able to get that horse to go to war after all the pampering it had experienced today was something he’d have to deal with in the future.
But that would have to wait after he’d gotten a taste of this food for brunch.
Honestly, many of these nobles started panicking as they felt uncultured, not knowing about half the things being mentioned, or how they’d slurp or eat too excitedly, which was likely something most nobles wouldn’t do.
But no one seemed to care. And if even the Princess had no idea what "Brunch" was, then who were they to know?
However, all these thoughts about trying to pump themselves up were apparently unnecessary as the dish before them leveled the playing field.
Every time a plate was set down, the golden disks jiggled, and a few nobles panicked.
What if the source of this soul-shaking scent were to collapse with all that jiggling?!
After all, it was piled high, with each plate containing about four of these golden fluffy disks with edges that were a bit golden-brown.
The plate also had a few of these things called "berries," and some gasped in recognition as they remembered them from the famous Star Mall store.
However, they didn’t expect to be taught about this butter and syrup.
Now, this was a job that Jax volunteered for. Although no one would really steal the post, he graciously fought for it and won.
In his mind, these people must not fail at using butter, or hell would start.
This may sound exaggerated, but when the other food tasters got their pancakes, they used up all their butter for the top pancake, and only for the top pancake.
It was heartbreaking.
And it was a disaster, for people were starting to eye each other’s butter allotment, which fueled the rehashing of historical fights. And while no butter was taken that day, arguments that had been buried for decades started resurfacing.
So, this had to be nipped in the bud. And what better way to do this than to explain the importance of pacing and allocation?
"???"
Little Nina was very surprised to see her brother Jax talking about pacing and allocation.
Two things that his Big Brother said that weren’t part of Jax’s vocabulary, and yet here he was passionately teaching them about this!
And the Princess taught how magnificent it was that such a thing could also make people smarter.
Smarter and more desperate, in fact.
For when the person with the highest noble status finally decided to take her first bite, the others were finally able to taste a bit of heaven.
Or at least the clouds.
What a good day!
