章 227: [227] Feeding Play
Chapter 227: Feeding Play
"Since I can do it, there's no problem for your 'God Tongue' to achieve the same."
Hachiman enticingly tempted the girl with a subtle tone.
"Do you want to experience flavors far beyond what an ordinary person can taste, just like me?"
His words sounded almost hypnotic, and Erina subconsciously responded.
"Yes... I want to."
Observing this scene, a slight curve appeared on Hachiman's lips as he pushed a dish towards her.
"Here, give it a try. Taste this French-style pan-seared foie gras in front of you. Don't intentionally look for its flaws; use your tongue to find the beauty in the dish, as if you were writing an article praising it."
Erina hesitated for a moment but ultimately used her fork to pick up a small piece of foie gras dipped in sauce. Encouraged by Hachiman's supportive gaze, she placed it in her mouth.
"Don't deliberately suppress your 'God Tongue.' Use it to discover the beauty within!" Hachiman continued to guide her.
In reality, this French-style pan-seared foie gras wasn't particularly delicious. In Hachiman's evaluation under the "Tasting" module, it scored only in the seventies.
The chef preparing this dish had culinary skills probably on par with Chef Kasumigaoka.
Normally, Erina would have pointed out three or four flaws by now, but under Hachiman's intentional guidance, her current expression was completely different. With closed eyes, she carefully savored the dish.
The delicate foie gras melted in her mouth, its smooth texture akin to high-quality silk sliding over her palate. It felt like a gentle spring breeze, causing the corners of the girl's mouth to relax.
However, this blissful expression only lasted for a moment. Erina furrowed her brow again and, somewhat helplessly, opened her eyes.
"No, the 'God Tongue' seems to have a consciousness. If I can't control it, it will instinctively search for flaws!"
"It's okay, take it slow. Correcting habits is a gradual process. You need to learn to control the 'God Tongue,' not let it control you." Hachiman smiled slightly, reaching over to push another dish towards her.
"Here, try this French onion soup!"
This time, the girl didn't refuse and followed his suggestion to taste it again.
However, just like the previous experience, the delightful expression lasted only for a moment before her brow furrowed once more.
Not minding her reaction, Hachiman encouraged her a few times before starting the feeding ritual again.
French lobster au gratin, Marseille fish soup, Wellington beef steak...
He presented one dish after another for Erina to taste.
"Here, the last one, French seafood bouillabaisse."
This time, Hachiman chose to feed her himself, using a fork to lift a strand of pasta and gently guiding it toward the girl's mouth.
After the delightful flavors of the previous dishes, Erina seemed to be getting into the experience. Without much thought, she opened her mouth and accepted the fork.
However, as soon as the food entered her mouth, the girl's eyes widened, and she let out a surprised exclamation with a hint of a whimper.
"Uh... you actually..."
"It's okay, just enjoy the meal," Hachiman reassured her.
Upon hearing his words, Erina's mouth moved instinctively, and her "God Tongue," already undergoing a transformation, rapidly sought out the elements of deliciousness.
In an instant, the girl was once again immersed in the flavors of the dish.
Shortly after, Erina released the fork, realizing that the strand of noodles on it had been eaten clean.
A blush appeared on her face, and she stammered, "You... you actually dared to feed me!"
Hachiman chuckled, "What's there to be afraid of? Haven't we already..."
But before he could finish, Erina guessed what he was going to say next and immediately shot him an indignant glare.
"Don't say it!"
If you say it, I'll lose all sense of shame.
Despite Erina's usually proud demeanor, she was quite a shy girl at heart. Even in a typical romance manga, witnessing a kissing scene would make her blush for a while.
"Alright, I won't say it." Knowing that Erina was sensitive, Hachiman didn't continue.
Seeing this, Erina breathed a sigh of relief. However, she glanced around, realizing that no one was paying attention to their side, finally letting go of her worries.
What she didn't notice was that Donato Gotoda, who had been secretly observing them, had already spotted this scene. He stroked his chin, a playful smile appearing on his lips.
At this moment, the dishes Erina had previously ordered, requiring on-the-spot preparation, were brought to their table. However, Erina had already been fed by Hachiman and was partially full. To avoid wasting food, she ended up sharing the dishes she ordered with Hachiman. To the onlookers, especially the graduates, it looked like something only a couple would do.
This situation left many graduates who were still single feeling a bit sentimental.
As they ate and chatted, occasionally rating dishes or suggesting improvements, the two spent a rather enjoyable dinner time together.
After dinner, Hachiman escorted Erina back to her room. During this time, Hisako had already sent a message confirming her safety, mentioning that she would come over later.
"You must be quite bored tonight. Do you want me to keep you company, maybe play some poker?"
Standing at the door of the girl's room, Hachiman smiled.
Upon hearing his words, Erina had a momentary flutter in her heart but then remembered the "feeding play" in the restaurant and responded indignantly.
"No need! Hisako will be coming over soon. Hurry up and leave!"
Seeing her reaction, Hachiman didn't insist.
"Well then, I'll head back. See you tomorrow, Erina."
"Hmph!"
The girl snorted lightly, ignoring him. With a "bang," the door closed, and the corridor once again fell into silence.
Seeing this, Hachiman shrugged and turned to leave.
However, what he didn't expect was the flush of red on Erina's face after she closed the door. From childhood to now, the girl had never had too intimate contact with peers of the opposite sex. Today, she openly experienced a "feeding play" with Hachiman at the restaurant. How could a girl with a thin skin like hers not feel embarrassed?
Moreover, thinking back to what happened at the beach earlier, where they had hugged and kissed, Erina's thoughts were in disarray. She dove onto the luxurious bed, hugging a pillow and rolling around, feeling a bit flustered.
Unfortunately, no one could witness this childish scene.
On the second afternoon of the residential training, in the central monitoring room.
Hachiman's assigned task for the day had concluded in the morning, leaving him with little to do. He decided to come to the central monitoring room and joined Dojima in observing various examination rooms.
During a somewhat dull moment, a surveillance screen caught Hachiman's attention. The display showed the classroom supervised by Shinomiya Kojiro.
In front of Shinomiya stood a girl with two blue braids.
Witnessing this scene, a smile played on Hachiman's lips.
It seemed like something interesting was about to unfold.
