After a while, Aki noticed that August hadn't responded to her.
Looking closely, she couldn't help but chuckle.
August was staring at his own legs in a daze, with a smile on his face, lost in thought about something.
Honestly, when Aki saw this scene, her first reaction wasn't anger, but rather pride! No matter how favored he was by Captain Finn and the Goddess Loki, he was still captivated by her charm.
Aki suddenly revealed a mischievous smile, slightly bending over, getting closer to August.
"Do you like what you see?"
"Uh! It's nice!"
"Would you like to touch?"
"I want..."
Mid-sentence, his voice abruptly stopped.
Lifting her head, Aki found her face very close to his.
In an instant, August felt incredibly awkward.
It was genuinely, awkwardly embarrassing.
First, he touched her head, and now he was daydreaming about her legs. He felt he had really crossed a line.
"Uh, well... I'm really sorry!"
"You've already said that once before, August!"
"Haha..."
Not knowing how to respond, it was just too awkward.
Twice, and within just a few minutes, it was beyond expression.
"However, I don't dislike it, August~"
With a heavily suggestive tone, enough to make most men lose their self-control, Aki made August feel floating.
However, in August's eyes, a flash of clarity passed.
As the saying goes, when things go abnormally, there must be a demon. His behavior could be described as a pervert, but the fact that the other party showed no signs of minding was abnormal.
August didn't consider himself a chosen protagonist or anything. Usually, when a protagonist's luck appeared, enemies would be in awe, and beautiful women would come forward willingly.
Most importantly, he and this cat lady had just met for the first time. Even if it were love at first sight, it wouldn't happen so quickly. There was definitely something fishy going on.
"I just woke up, so I'm still a bit confused. I apologize! Apologize!"
As he spoke, he slightly distanced himself from Aki.
This action surprised Aki, thinking that this newcomer was quite interesting.
However, Aki didn't say anything. She just wanted to test August. If he really turned out to be a pervert, she would not hesitate to ignore Finn's orders.
She was not a prostitute from Entertainment District, not a woman who sold her body.
"By the way, August, do you have anything to do today? As your consultant, Captain personally talked to me and told me to fulfill all your requests."
August understood, this was Finn's arrangement.
First, weapons were given, then face, and now a girl was sent. They were trying to firmly tie him to the ship of the Loki Familia.
However, August didn't mind. When benefits came to the door, he wouldn't reject them.
"In that case, I have something to do this afternoon. Could I trouble you, Aki, to run an errand with me? I'm not familiar with Orario."
"No problem!"
Aki had already confirmed that August was definitely not a simple person.
This man had genuinely shown his behavior and expression towards her just now. But now, all of that had disappeared, as if it had never happened.
It's worth mentioning that Aki was quite confident in her charm.
In the Familia, in Orario, although she didn't have as many pursuers as Ais, she certainly had quite a few.
Looking at this cat lady who came to visit, August was a little surprised in his heart.
He had just decided this morning to go and replenish and replace the weapons stored in the treasure vault in the afternoon. If Aki hadn't come, he would have to go find Finn or Gareth again.
After all, August didn't know any blacksmiths or weapon merchants in Orario.
He didn't know where to buy equipment.
"By the way, I don't have anything to entertain guests, but I have some snacks from my hometown. See if you like them."
Saying this, he took out a plate of potato chips—three full bags of potato chips.
At the sight of the potato chips, Aki suddenly became curious. Another thing she had never seen, just like the coke earlier.
With the first-time experience of coke, Aki picked up a piece of potato chip with great anticipation.
Crunch~
Putting it in her mouth, she felt the crispy texture and the taste of the potato chip, making her really like it.
One piece... two pieces... three pieces...
Not long after, Aki had eaten the entire plate of potato chips.
Although it looked like a lot, there wasn't actually much.
At this point, August timely handed her a glass of coke.
The taste of the potato chips, coke, and even the spiciness, made Aki feel a sensation she had never experienced before.
"Hmm? Is it gone?"
When she wanted to take more, she found there was nothing left. Aki realized that the plate was empty.
This left Aki somewhat unsatisfied, but she didn't ask for more.
After all, she and August had just met.
"It's great that you like it!"
"What's this called?"
"Potato chips."
"Potato chips, huh? Sounds good!"
August was speechless. How could it sound good? The expression on your face clearly shows that it tastes good.
"By the way, Aki, have you had lunch?"
"I ate... I didn't eat!"
Aki was about to say she had eaten, but thinking about the things August brought out, she suddenly felt excited.
August didn't reveal it, he directly took out a bucket of fried chicken, the whole family bucket.
In an instant, Aki's eyes lit up. Seeing something she had never seen before and looking very delicious, she couldn't help but start eating.
August smiled and nodded. It could be confirmed, Aki, this lady, was a little cat who loved to eat.
In this case, it wouldn't be difficult to accept this little cat.
As for her so-called official companion, August thought that since he had arrived, he wouldn't miss the chance to get a beautiful girl, especially a cat lady.
Glancing at it, coke still had a lot left due to drawing 500 earlier, so there was no need to worry in the short term.
As for the fried chicken, potato chips, and french fries, they had already been consumed a bit.
Especially the fried chicken, during the time in the Dungeon, August could eat two or three buckets in one go. Now, he had already consumed twenty or thirty servings.
It might not take long before all this fried chicken was gone. This made August ponder whether he would draw more from the gacha.
