Chapter 347: Everyone Loves Ice Cream

-----

The picnic day continued, as we enjoyed the dessert before the main dish, everyone loved the ice cream we made. Even the old grandma Draugann who had sensitive teeth enjoyed it.

"Oi, Drake! What is this ambrosia of the G.o.ds?! I had never tasted something so good! It is as if you were eating… delicious and soft clouds…!" said Draugann.

"So good… And yes, it is as if we were eating soft and creamy clouds that we just harvested from the skies." Sighed Tisha.

"Nom, nom, nom…! Another!" said Pekora, finishing her own in an instant although her cheeks bulged like a hamster.

"There you go. Remember that there is the whole main dish after this, so save some s.p.a.ce in the stomach for that." I said as I gave her a second crepe with ice cream.

"That"s my son-in-law! Drake, you"ve made something truly amazing! I can"t believe it… Why don"t we sell it in a sect, and we get rich quick?" asked Benladann"s father, patting me in the back while laughing out loud. He was a man like this. and I loved my father-in-law just as he was, even when he got a bit overwhelming.

PAT! PAT! PAT!

Ugh, his strength is rather considerable now that he"s Rank 3. His pats make my entire body tremble a bit, to be honest.

"I am glad you think that! But I am sure people in this world had already invented it, right, Rakasha?" I asked.

"What? I"ve traveled all around the continent here, and Midgard… and n.o.body has ever done something like this, Drake! You created this!" said Rakasha.

"W-What?! Really?" I asked.

"Yeah! You made it! You should really make it your copyright and then we can make a ma.s.sive enterprise of ice cream and sell ice cream all around the world! Hah, why even fight anymore when we can just all share good ice cream and live life to the fullest? I believe you could get through the hearts of even the most bitter person with such sweetness…" sighed Rakasha.

"I think you"re exaggerating a bit there, but maybe it is not so bad of an idea to make it widespread…" I said.

"It"s amazing, Drake. You"re a very talented man, I always knew that you were talented and that"s why you"re the only one that deserves my beautiful girl." Said my mother-in-law, as she was in her fourth crepe already. Women particularly loved ice cream.

"Hahaha. Thank you, mother-in-law." I said.

The kids were enjoying the ice cream the most.

"Papa! More! I want to taste the papaya one now!" proclaimed Flayr, almost as if ordering me.

But I can"t resist this cute baby girl…

"Of course dear, here you go," I said.

"Thank you!" Flayr happily smiled as she dug in.

"C-Can I have the same that Ruby is having?" asked Hansel.

"Sure!" I said, giving the boy his ice cream.

"Ahh… It"s actually just as good as she said!" said Hansel.

"Fufufu! Isn"t it? I am glad you"ve recognized the wonderfulness of ice cream to its fullest potential! Strawberry ice cream is the best!" said Ruby.

"Yes! It"s the best indeed!" said Hansel. He said yes to anything the girl said.

"I liked multi-fruit better. All the flavors mixed together to make the best experience…" said Noirenn, as she licked her ice cream. The multi-flavored one had become the favorite of most of the people, its rainbow color was also a big attraction and food to the eyes, and its aroma of many fruits, alongside all the tiny bits of fruits mixed on it and the flavors of all the fruit jams mixed with honey… such delicious ambrosia!

"CRAA!"

"CRAA!"

Huginn and Muninn were enjoying their ice cream too, using their sharp beaks, they took thin slices of crepe with ice cream, and devoured the tiny pieces of fruits there were on it. They loved eating fruits that Benladann threw at them in midair for them to catch them while training their flight, so they were already in love with the dish.

"Oh my G.o.d! This is it! This is amazing! Amazing! I love it! Drake, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, you should have done this before!!!" cried Yuki, proclaiming to the world her love for ice cream.

"Hehe, and this is not even its final form! You"ll see when we make things such as Parfait…" I said.

"P-Parfait?! I don"t know what that means but it sure sounds delicious!" said Yuki.

"Hmm… This sweetness… It is… like the sweetness of blood! Oh! I love this!"

Even Skadi was sticking her blade over the ice cream and consuming it somehow, she was a magical weapon that was able to consume blood and mana cores, so she somehow found a way to taste and eat ice cream and even crepes.

Uller, naturally, also learned and was at her side eating. I believe the two are developing some kind of romantic relationship, though Skadi is obviously the dominant here.

The ice cream was almost gone by now, but everyone had eaten at least twice. The children were the ones that particularly loved it the most. After all, ice cream was a beloved desert by all children alike… and perhaps all humanity on Earth.

I have yet to know someone that actually dislikes ice cream as of now, but I can"t seem to find it. n.o.body can dislike ice cream! Even if you"re intolerant to milk, there were many alternatives without milk or lactose back then, so even those people got to enjoy it and love it.

Though… I miss ice cream with chocolate! White chocolate and normal chocolate would go so well with these ice cream crepes, perhaps in sauce form, or any form, to be honest! Chocolate was always a great partner of ice cream, and chocolate-flavored ice creams were widespread across the entire globe.

But chocolate… can we even find this fruit in this world?

"Uwah… If we had chocolate to go with this, it would be even more amazing! I wish you guys could have ever tasted such a thing!" I sighed.

"Chocolate? What"s chocolate?" wondered Benladann at my side.

"You"ve never eaten chocolate?!" I asked in disbelief.

"Ah… chocolate… I remember it!" said Rakasha.

Wait… there"s chocolate in this world?!
