Three Wonders

A few moments later, Latifa returned with her serving tray filled with three mugs of Madam Morning Dews and three servings of Glazed Rockmeat. The time of her departure to the time of her arrival was no more than two dozen breaths.

Such efficiency was hardly seen in bars and restaurants.

However, it was only possible with Vaan because none of the items he ordered required preparation. Everything was pre-made and ready to serve; they only needed to be grabbed and delivered.

Moreover, it appeared he was getting special treatment from the beautiful waiter.

Evidently, while Vaan was interested in Latifa's information, she was similarly interested in learning more about him. He had piqued her curiosity. Since there was something she didn't understand, she had to investigate and shed light on her doubts.

"Sorry for the wait, Sir Jihaad and Sir Vanderlin." 

"I-It was no wait at all, Miss Latifa!"

"Right. Surely you jest, Miss Latifa."
