In his past life, Rez had studied gourmet food to some extent; in his spare time, he would go on picnics and barbecues with friends.
Rez believed his skewering and grilling skills were definitely top-tier.
He took this opportunity to properly treat this cute and beautiful Apprentice Angel.
"We Saiyans have huge appetites. It's been over eight hours; are you really not hungry at all?" Rez asked with a smile.
"Ah? I... I ate some snacks earlier while you were training," Linoshi replied flusteredly, feeling like she'd said the wrong thing. Her fingers began fidgeting with her combat suit again.
"A few snacks aren't enough. I'll make some roasted meat for you!" Rez chuckled, revealing a flash of white teeth.
"Roasted meat?" Linoshi was slightly taken aback, her blue eyes blinking in confusion.
"Just wait here!" After saying that, Rez immediately soared into the air.
Swoosh—
His figure turned into a streak of light, quickly vanishing into the deepening night.
Linoshi stood where she was, staring in the direction he had disappeared for a long time without moving.
The evening breeze blew her hair, gently brushing it against her cheeks.
About ten minutes later.
A streak of light streaked across the horizon, rapidly approaching.
Rez returned, carrying a small animal that resembled a goat in his hand.
The animal's limbs hung limp; it was clearly dead.
It was twice the size of a normal sheep, enough for the two of them to have a hearty meal.
Thud!
Rez landed on the ground and tossed the prey onto a flat rock.
Snap!
Rez lightly raised his right hand, a bright ball of flame condensing in his palm, which he quickly spread over the goat.
The flames licked the fur, making a sizzling sound as a burnt smell filled the air.
Then, Rez quickly skinned the goat with practiced, efficient movements.
He found a thick tree branch, skewered it through the goat's mouth and out the tail, mounting the entire animal onto the branch.
Next, Rez gathered some dry twigs, piled them into a simple campfire, and propped the skewered goat over it.
"Is this... a One-Horned Goat?" Linoshi leaned in closer, looking at the skinned prey, and finally couldn't help but whisper, "The meat of this animal doesn't seem like it would taste very good."
Her tone held a hint of doubt, but it was mostly curiosity.
Rez ignored her, focusing intently on rotating the branch so the flames could evenly lick the mutton.
The fire danced in the night, illuminating the area for several meters around.
Fat dripped onto the embers, making a sizzling sound and sending up tiny sparks.
When the goat was almost done, Rez pulled a small homemade cloth pouch from his pocket, opened it, and evenly sprinkled the seasonings inside onto the meat.
The seasoning packet contained salt, MSG, Spicy Shell Powder, cumin, and so on.
He had specially blended them when he had nothing else to do.
There were similar plants on Planet Vegeta, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Originally, Rez had wanted to use roasted meat to attract Whis and Beerus.
As it turned out, Rez roasted meat at the palace gates for several days, but neither Whis nor Beerus ever showed up.
After that, Rez had no choice but to give up on the idea of being taken away by Whis and focused on increasing his own energy instead.
He just hadn't expected that these seasonings would come in handy on an occasion like this.
Furthermore, although he hadn't met Whis or Beerus, he had encountered an Apprentice Angel.
And this Apprentice Angel was a beautiful girl at that.
The moment the seasonings were sprinkled onto the One-Horned Goat, the aroma of meat instantly wafted out.
The rich fragrance spread through the night wind, carrying the unique pungency of cumin and the charred aroma of meat, blending into a mouth-watering scent.
Linoshi's nose twitched slightly, and her blue eyes immediately lit up.
The aroma seemed to have a life of its own, drifting into her nostrils with the night breeze and teasing her taste buds.
Her nostrils flared slightly, and her blue eyes sparkled with curiosity and anticipation.
Rez smiled, tore off a piece of the goat meat, and held it out to Linoshi.
The meat was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sprinkled with golden seasonings and still steaming slightly.
The fat glistened enticingly in the firelight; a drop of oil slid slowly down the grain of the meat and fell onto the rock with a soft sizzle.
Linoshi took the goat meat, holding it in both hands as if it were some rare treasure.
She brought the meat to her nose and took a gentle sniff.
"It smells so good!" Linoshi smacked her lips, her blue eyes curving into crescents.
She lowered her head slightly and extended her pink tongue, taking a cautious lick.
In that instant, her eyes lit up.
Those blue eyes were like ignited stars, instantly bursting with brilliant light.
She froze for a moment, seemingly unable to believe her own taste buds.
Then, Linoshi took another small bite and began to savor it.
She closed her eyes, her cheeks moving gently as an expression of immense enjoyment appeared on her face.
The firelight reflected off her pale cheeks, coating them in a warm flush.
As the meat entered her mouth, Linoshi immediately felt the pleasure brought by her taste buds.
The complex flavors exploded in her mouth—the pungency of cumin, the savoriness of the meat, and the saltiness of the seasonings blended perfectly, stimulating every one of her taste buds.
"It's so delicious! I never thought you could make this animal's meat taste so good!" Linoshi was both surprised and delighted, smacking her lips excitedly. She took another bite as she spoke, as if afraid of wasting even a bit of this rare delicacy.
Rez smiled with satisfaction.
Truth be told, the way Linoshi ate the mutton was quite adorable.
She ate very earnestly, taking small bites with her cheeks puffing out. Occasionally, she would suck the grease off her fingers, her blue eyes full of contentment.
The firelight reflected on her face, adding a touch of mundane warmth to her elegant features.
The whole roasted lamb was quickly devoured by the two of them.
Only a pile of clean-picked bones remained on the ground, without a single scrap of meat left.
Linoshi licked her lips, looking like she hadn't had enough. Her blue eyes looked pitifully at the empty branch and then at Rez; she seemed to want more but was too embarrassed to ask.
"Another one?" Rez asked with a smile.
"Um... okay... yes." Linoshi nodded vigorously, a bright smile blooming on her face, and then quickly thanked him, "Thank you!"
"No need to be so polite with me! Just wait here a moment, I'll be right back!" As Rez spoke, his figure blurred and he vanished from the spot.
A streak of light flashed across the night sky and disappeared in an instant.
Linoshi stood there, looking in the direction he had vanished, a satisfied smile still lingering on the corners of her mouth.
She looked down at her grease-stained fingers, hesitated for a moment, but still couldn't resist putting them in her mouth to suck on them.
Before long, Rez returned with another goat.
It was the same routine.
Removing the fur, skinning it, and propping it over the fire to roast.
The flames danced in the night, making a crackling sound.
