The Most Satisfied Reincarnate

Chapter 25: Missing(1)

-Outer City Gate-

After running for a long time, Desmond and Alice's bodies slowly became visible. Alice then opens her eyes and sees that they were already in the outer city.

"How do you do that?"

"It's a secret," Desmond replied expressionlessly.

*humph* Alice snorted while looking away, but after that, she speaks in a low tone, "Thanks."

*ahem* Desmond then looked at Alice and asked, "So why do we have to do that?" This time, he stares at Alice with a serious expression.

"Ehee… actually I want to surprise dad and mom by giving flowers when they come back.

"But the guards are the most trusted people hired by mom and dad, so almost all of our activities will be reported to them. Is that still a surprise?" Alice asked while holding tightly one of Desmond's hands.

Desmond is silent seeing this; he waved one of his hands towards Alice's head and made a head chop.

'Ouch.' Alice is in pain while holding her head and then looks at Desmond with fake anger.

"Next time, don't do it again without me; it will be dangerous." Desmond simply ignored Alice's gaze while looking at the area around him. "Now follow me, this time; let me look for the flower shop."

Desmond took Alice's hand and then started looking for the nearest flower shop.

After they finished buying flowers, Alice immediately rushed to take Desmond to the toy shop.

"Come on, come on, Desmond, hurry up."

"Fine, take it easy; the shop won't run away."

They run until they finally reach the toy shop; this is the same shop when they first arrive in this kingdom.

"So, did you bring the money?"

Alice didn't answer right away, but she showed him the pouch containing quite many gold coins.

"Okay, I'll wait at si-" Before Desmond could finish his words, he heard the sound of the door closing.

He just shook his head and waited.

After a few minutes of waiting, Desmond sees Alice come with many bags containing toys. The bags also floated, so Alice didn't have to carry them.

"So, can we go home now?"

"I-" When Alice wanted to answer, Desmond heard a rumbling sound from her stomach. This made Alice's face turn red, and she suddenly lowered her head.

*sigh* "How could this happen? We just ate recently.

"Stay here, and don't go anywhere. I'll buy you something."

There was a chair in front of the toy shop, where Desmond had previously sat to wait for Alice. Now Alice sits on it and nods her head.

"Give me the money bag," Alice obeyed his orders very tamely without looking at his eyes. She only looked away while giving the pouch.

I wonder, will all girls be like this. 

Desmond then checks the pouch and takes only a few coins. He gives back the pouch to Alice.

"Don't need a lot of money just to buy snacks."

Because this is the second time Desmond in the outer city, he is also curious about this city; he looks around while looking for the nearest restaurant or shop.

He sees that a few small alleys lead to narrow spaces flanked by buildings in almost every street as he is walking.

That made him frown; he sped up his search, and right at the end of the road, he found a small building that looked like a food stall.

Desmond walks over to the shop and sees that the shop only had two small windows at each end of the shop; there was also a hole in the middle, enough for an adult's hand to enter; above that hole, there was also a glass showing the situation inside the shop.

When Desmond arrives at the shop, he sees a person who looked like the shop owner was tidying something on the floor.

Desmond, who saw this, became impatient; he tried the best to smile while asking, "Excuse me, do you open it now?"

The shop owner who hears someone's voice immediately looks at Desmond; he stood while tidying his clothes, dust coming out every time he patted his clothes.

"Yes, I apologize earlier; my son dropped something," the shop owner said with a smile as he rubbed his head.

When the shop owner saw Desmond clearly, his smile grew wider, "So young master, what do you want to order? We also have ice cream here. "

The shop owner knew that the child in front of him must be someone from a wealthy family; he usually only offered ice cream to the rich kid. Besides making ice cream, which is quite difficult, the ingredients' price is also relatively high.

When the shop owner knows Desmond's taste, he does not feel strange because he also knows that making ice cream is very costly, "Alright uncle, I'll order two pieces of ice cream."

"Alright, wait a minute."

After Desmond finishes ordering, he sees the shop owner go straight to his workplace, then the shop owner takes some milk and pours the milk into a large pot; he also sees the shop owner bring two glasses of water and cast a spell. The water in the glass suddenly turns into ice.

The ice then pours into the pan as well; Desmond sees the shop owner close his eyes while muttering something. After a few seconds, the pot's contents rotated by themselves until they became a texture that looked sticky and soft. The shop owner takes two wooden glasses and pours the cream into the glass.

The shop owner also takes a jar filled with grated chocolate and looks at Desmond, "Chocolate? Strawberry? "

Desmond, who sees the method of making ice cream for the first time, was dumbfounded, his mind awake when the shop owner asked, "Both chocolate."

Desmond sees the shop owner sprinkle the two grated chocolate on the cream; after finishing the sprinkling, the shop owner chants another spell and the cream that had been soft and sticky slowly hardened.

"Done!" The shop owner then takes the two ice cream and brings them towards Desmond.

"Total to 20 silvers."

Desmond then takes the money from his pocket. When he wants to give him the coin, he realizes it was a gold coin, he rechecks his pocket, and almost all the coins are gold coins.

Desmond became speechless, and he was forced to hand over one gold coin to the shop owner.

"Gold coins?" The shop owner is surprised. Earlier, when he saw Desmond checking the pockets, he thought Desmond didn't have any money and almost kicked him away.

"Just take the rest," Desmond replied as he takes two glasses of ice cream and walks away.

"Thank you, young master," the shop owner repeatedly bowed with a big smile on his face.

Desmond quickly walks towards the toy shop. The first time he saw the many narrow alleys in the outer city, he already felt an unpleasant thing.

"Fuck!" Desmond had been unaware of his behavior, being forced by the spell to leave Alice alone. 

He hastily accelerated his pace again, 

Why didn't the system tell me ?!

[System Conclusion: Host has been notified by the system before but host mind full of thinking woman behavior]

"Okay, I know this is my bad. Alice, I hope you're okay."

Once there, Desmond can't find Alice; he only sees a toy doll lying in front of the toy shop.
