After helping the Little Ones get dressed, it was time for breakfast.
The little girls are currently at a developmental age, so their nutrition must be kept up; this cannot be overlooked.
Of course, Makoto wouldn't spend time making breakfast.
It was a rare opportunity to travel, so relaxation was the main priority.
He only needed to say hello to the inn owner, and someone would prepare Mondstadt's special breakfast.
"Mr. Faxun, good morning!"
Venti walked down the stairs, stretching lazily.
Even though he had stayed with Makoto last night, Venti now looked as if he had just woken up from a deep sleep.
Makoto was also a bit surprised that Venti hadn't returned to his room to rest; that was rare.
But then he thought, perhaps a certain tavern was having a free drinking event, and it was just about opening time now.
Sure enough, the only thing that could make Venti so proactive was drinking.
"Venti, you've come at a good time. Everyone wants breakfast, you..."
Before Makoto could finish, Venti looked wronged: "Mr. Faxun, you're not trying to make me run errands to buy breakfast, are you?"
"No, absolutely not, I'm not going, I'm not hungry!"
Venti refused three times.
Makoto was stunned for a moment: "I haven't even finished speaking, why are you refusing so quickly?"
"What I meant was, everyone wants breakfast, do you want something to eat too? I've already arranged for the inn to buy it."
"But since you said you're not hungry, then never mind."
As he finished speaking, Venti grabbed Makoto's arm and chuckled, "Mr. Faxun, how did you know I was hungry?"
Venti, that sly one.
If he were asked to run errands to buy breakfast, he would say he wasn't hungry yet.
But if he was told someone else was already running the errand, he'd be more eager than anyone else to join in.
Before long, Honeyed Roast, Mondstadt Hash Browns, Pile 'Em Up... some very characteristic Mondstadt dishes were served at the dining table.
Except for Eula and Venti, Ningguang and the others stared at the delicious food on the table.
This was their first time seeing Mondstadt's special cuisine, so they naturally found it a bit novel.
Just like when the Raiden sisters first arrived in Liyue, they also had a sense of having their eyes opened.
"So, so good!"
Little Ayaka picked up a Mondstadt Hash Brown, put it in her mouth, and then praised it indistinctly.
The other Little Ones started eating one after another, and they all had a good impression of Mondstadt's breakfast.
Watching everyone eat with relish, Little Eula, a native of Mondstadt, blinked her large eyes, somewhat unable to understand.
"Why is everyone so happy eating this? This breakfast tastes quite ordinary."
Makoto smiled: "Travel is like this: going from a place you're tired of to a place others are tired of."
"Perhaps what you're tired of eating is a good dish in the eyes of a foreigner."
Hearing Makoto's explanation, Eula understood a little.
Foods like Mondstadt Hash Browns and Pile 'Em Up were things she was tired of eating.
But for Ningguang and the others, it was their first time trying them, so there was a sense of novelty, which made them seem to enjoy it so much.
At this point, Makoto continued: "Eula, if one day you go to Liyue, I'll treat you to Liyue's specialty dishes."
"By then, perhaps you'll also be happy like these little girls, because you'll taste new and exciting food."
Go to Liyue?
Hearing Makoto's teasing, Eula was momentarily stunned.
Because traveling to other countries was something she had never considered.
Eula had no plans for the future; if she hadn't met Makoto, she wouldn't even know where she would be right now.
However, thinking about it carefully, going to Liyue to take a look might be an interesting thing.
Listening to Makoto talk about Liyue's specialty cuisine, Eula even started to look forward to it.
"Makoto Gege, then it's settled, okay? If I ever go to Liyue, you have to treat me to a meal!"
Makoto nodded: "Okay, I'll treat, you pay."
Eula was stunned for a moment; there was such a way of doing things?
Venti was also stunned for a moment; wasn't that his usual trick?
"Makoto Gege treats but doesn't pay, I'll remember this grudge!"
Makoto was already accustomed to Eula's grudges: "Alright, Grudge-Holder Who Doesn't Seek Revenge, hurry up and eat breakfast, or it'll get cold later."
While the Little Ones were eating, Yae Miko and Yu Jin also came for breakfast.
Everyone was traveling to Mondstadt together, so Makoto couldn't possibly ignore them.
Looking at the distinctly Mondstadt breakfast, Yae Miko sighed: "To be honest, I don't have much of an appetite right after waking up... However, since it's Mr. Faxun's arrangement, I'll finish it."
As she finished speaking, Makoto was momentarily stunned.
Eating breakfast properly, how did it sound so off when it came from Yae Miko's mouth?
Yu Jin next to her teased, "Miss Yae, you should at least..."
Makoto:???
Something's off, these two women are off!
Starting to drive at the drop of a hat, are we?
Can you even drive on this broken road?
Yu Jin is the Liyue Car King, and Yae Miko is the Inazuma Car King.
Putting these two together created a synergy greater than the sum of their parts.
If Lisa, Mondstadt's Car King, were to appear here as well...
Makoto couldn't even imagine the scene.
"Little Cutie, I finally found you."
At this moment, a woman's voice came from the doorway.
Makoto subconsciously looked up, his gaze meeting Lisa's.
"Oh? Your expression seems to suggest you don't want me here?"
"Then I'll leave?"
As she finished speaking, Yae Miko and Yu Jin, who were eating breakfast, looked at Lisa in unison.
The historic meeting of the three Car Kings!
