A crystal-clear, exceptionally beautiful bread, slightly larger than a palm, appeared in Satou's hand. Inside, juice seemed to flow, and it felt heavy.
The moment this bread appeared, an extremely rich, sweet aroma immediately filled the air.
"It smells so good."
Satou exclaimed, truly amazed. It was indeed an A-grade ingredient; both its appearance and aroma surpassed all the ingredients he had seen before.
He eagerly opened the ingredient description.
"Western Pear Bread
Ingredient Grade: A
Ingredient Description: Bread filled with the sweetness of Western pears. Its appearance is very luxurious and beautiful, with plump Western pear juice filling the entire bread. When eaten, an unparalleled sweetness melts on the tongue, filling the entire body with this fragrant and noble aroma. It is a very high-grade dessert that can be eaten directly or enjoyed after simple cooking.
Origin: Gourmet Captive."
"You said there were three earlier?"
Satou asked.
"That's right."
The system replied. Subsequently, two more Western Pear Breads appeared in Satou's hand, but they were yellow and purple, respectively. It seemed they were different flavors.
Satou remembered that there was a fruit in reality called breadfruit, named because it tasted very much like bread after being slightly roasted.
This Western Pear Bread should be a food similar to breadfruit, only far more delicious. Even without any processing, it was a top-tier dessert.
Satou checked the price; each breadfruit cost one million Japanese yen, which was an exorbitant price.
Although the selling price was the same as Cheese Rabbit, the weight of one Cheese Rabbit was significantly heavier than one bread, so in terms of price per jin, Western Pear Bread was the most expensive among all ingredients.
"It really is expensive."
Satou also felt a bit of a pang. Although he could earn a lot of money every day now, he couldn't buy many loaves of bread.
At this moment, Satou suddenly remembered that Erina Nakiri should be awake, so he walked up to the bedroom upstairs.
Erina Nakiri had just woken up and was yawning lazily.
"Are you awake?"
Satou smiled slightly when he saw her and asked.
"Mm."
A faint smile also appeared on Erina Nakiri's lips.
"Are you hungry?"
Satou walked over, rubbed her head, and asked.
"A little."
Erina Nakiri nodded. She hadn't eaten lunch, so she was indeed a bit hungry.
Satou thought for a moment, took out a yellow Western Pear Bread, and said, "Here, eat this."
"Oh?"
Upon seeing the luxurious-looking bread and smelling its rich, sweet aroma, a hint of surprise flashed in Erina Nakiri's eyes. Even without tasting it, she already knew it was an exceptionally excellent dessert.
"Did you make this?"
She couldn't help but ask curiously. In her impression, it seemed only Akikubo-senpai could make such desserts.
"You'll know once you taste it."
Satou said with a smile.
Erina Nakiri nodded, then took a bite. The bread was crisp and sweet. As soon as she bit into it, a sweet and fragrant liquid flowed out, and an unprecedented noble and elegant aura instantly filled her body, utterly delightful.
"It's so delicious."
A deep surprise flashed in Erina Nakiri's eyes. This dessert had no flaws that even her God Tongue could detect, and its texture was exceptionally natural and fresh. Every bite was full of juice, giving the sensation of eating fruit.
"Did you make this?"
She asked very curiously. In her memory, Satou's skill in desserts didn't seem to be this impressive, did it?
"No, this is a fruit."
Satou said with a smile.
"A fruit? Is it a fruit similar to breadfruit?"
Erina Nakiri was even more surprised. "The natural flavor is so wonderful without any human processing?"
"This must be a very precious ingredient, right?"
She asked.
"Mm."
Satou nodded. He himself was a bit reluctant to eat it, but he left it for Erina Nakiri.
Erina Nakiri glanced at Satou and immediately realized that Satou must have been reluctant to eat it himself and had specifically saved it for her.
This made her feel both touched and sweet.
"Let's eat it together."
She brought the bread to Satou's mouth and said with a smile.
"Mm, okay."
Satou smiled, didn't refuse, and took a bite.
The sweet and fragrant taste instantly filled his tongue. Satou, who was tasting it for the first time, was also surprised because it was indeed too delicious.
Next, the two of them shared one bread.
Back in his Apartment, Satou gave the other Western Pear Bread to Kanna, after all, Kanna was also his woman, and Satou couldn't show favoritism.
As for the last one, Satou planned to give it to Alice Nakiri, so there would be one for each of them, which was just right.
"Is this for me, Satou?"
Kanna took a bite, and a happy expression immediately appeared on her face. "It's so delicious, Satou, you're too good to me."
Kanna watched from the side, her eyes wide, swallowing hard.
Kanna held the bread out to her, letting her take a bite.
"So delicious!"
Kanna touched her 890 cheeks, her eyes full of little stars.
"Satou, you should eat some too."
Kanna then handed the bread, which had two bites taken out of it, to Satou.
Satou looked at the two small teeth marks on it, feeling a bit speechless, but still took a bite.
In the evening, Tadokoro Megumi, Yukihira Soma, and others from Polar Star Dormitory were invited to Erina Nakiri's mansion for a celebration party for the Field Training.
"Satou, Erina Nakiri, we apologize for intruding."
Tadokoro Megumi politely bowed to Satou and Erina Nakiri.
"Not at all."
Satou quickly said, then he looked at Kobayashi Rindo in the crowd.
"I see disdain in your eyes."
Kobayashi Rindo said with some dissatisfaction.
"How could that be?"
Satou coughed lightly and said, "But Senior Kobayashi, why are you here?"
They were having a celebration party for the Field Training; why was a third-year student like her coming to join the fun? And how did she even know?
"After all this, you still dislike me, don't you?"
Kobayashi Rindo repeatedly pounded Satou's chest with her small fists, saying sadly, "Satou, you've changed. You're starting to dislike me."
Satou: "…"
