"Another savory tofu pudding!"
"Another sweet tofu pudding!"
A series of excited and expectant voices sounded.
"Me too … I'll have another savory tofu pudding …" Dracula raised his hand feebly as he looked at the white porcelain bowl in his hand, which had been licked clean.
"I'll have another sweet tofu pudding as well!" Jinx had also finished his tofu pudding, and he didn't feel embarrassed in the slightest.
"Alright, please wait a moment," Yabemiya replied before clearing away the bowls on the table with Sally.
"Uncle Bat, didn't you say that you'd rather starve to death than have a bite of human food?" Amy asked Dracula with a curious expression.
Everyone was also looking at him with a hint of mockery in their eyes. After all, he and Jinx were the ones who had objected the most.
"Um … Um … As a vampire, adapting to different living environments and food is a basic survival skill." Dracula cleared his throat with an awkward expression on his face. His eyes lit up as he looked at Mag, who was standing at the entrance of the kitchen, and a confident smile appeared on his face as he said, "Furthermore, for vampires, blood and brains are the best food to replenish energy. This tofu pudding is made from brains, so it suits the tastes of us vampires perfectly. We're definitely not vegetarian."
"My apologies, sir, but tofu pudding isn't actually made from brains of magical beasts. Instead, it's made from soybeans, so … it's still vegetarian." Meg smiled at the confident Dracula.
"How … How could it be made from soybeans? It's clearly made from brains, and it's even more delicious than brains! How could it be vegetarian? "
Dracula's smile stiffened, and he glared at Meg as he jumped up from his seat, feeling as if his intelligence had been insulted.
"I think this tofu pudding is even softer and smoother than the brains I've had in the past. How could something like this be made from soybeans? You're not lying to us, are you?" Gustav asked with an incredulous expression.
"The tofu pudding is indeed made from soybeans, and there's no meat or brains added to it. Our restaurant has always operated with integrity, and we never lie to our customers." Mag said with a smile. The names of Chinese dishes were broad and profound. If he were to make connections based on the names of the dishes, the people from the Gray Temple would have to come to the kitchen every day to search for corpses if there was a "husband and wife lung slice".
"It's over! I've become a vegetarian again! " Dracula slumped back into his seat as he stared at his bowl, which had been licked clean. He murmured with a hint of self-doubt, "I didn't even notice, and I even thought that it was delicious, and I want another bowl … Could it be that I'm no longer a pure vampire?
Dracula of Dracula's mouth as well?! of Dracula's face,'s, of course, of course, of course, "Dracula.
"Although the fact that it's a vegetarian dish has severely damaged my confidence, I still have to say that tofu pudding is supposed to be salty, right? How could they add sugar to such a tender thing? This flavor is unimaginable! "Dracula abruptly raised his head and looked at Tauros with a righteous expression.
"Bullsh * t! Tofu pudding is supposed to be sweet! Even though this isn't real brains, its sweet flavor and smooth texture are simply irresistible! How dare you say it tastes bad? Dracula, we're both demons, but you're going a little too far! "Gustav chimed in as he glowered at Dracula.
"The tofu pudding is a little sweet to begin with, and with the addition of the savory sauce and the rich side dishes, you'll be able to experience the true flavor of the tofu pudding. This is something that you can't experience when you add a spoonful of syrup to the sweet tofu pudding." Fox put down his spoon, and looked at Gustav and Dracula with a serious expression as he said, "Tofu pudding is supposed to be salty!"
"Fox, your face is still as foul as ever, but I suddenly feel like you're a lot more pleasing to the eye. As expected, not everyone gets to taste something as delicious as tofu pudding." Dracula nodded as he looked at Fox.
"Sweet tofu pudding is the best!" Jinx yelled before turning to Havid, and asking, "What do you think, Havid?"
Havid looked at his bowl, and was just about to say something.
"You'll have to borrow money from me to pay for the table and chairs," Jinx added.
Havid's eyes widened. He didn't think that Jinx would be so shameless.
"That's alright, Havid. Tell me what you think, and I'll lend you the money!" Gudra waved a hand through the air.
"Of course the savory tofu pudding is the best!" Havid replied without any hesitation. He looked at Dracula with a pleased expression, and said, "Don't worry, Dracula. I'll definitely return the money I borrowed from you."
"Sweet …"
"Salty …"
The restaurant was instantly plunged into a battle over the sweetness and saltiness of the tofu pudding. Furthermore, the demons and giant dragons, who were originally fighting for the benefits of their respective races, were now divided over a bowl of tofu pudding. The situation was no less intense than before.
Could it be that Mr. Mak is trying to break the stalemate and create an opportunity for the tables to turn? Michael turned to Meg with a perplexed look on his face at the sight of everyone arguing with one another.
He had presided over many meetings in the past, and he knew that this was a territorial dispute that had resulted in casualties on both sides, so it would take at least half a month for any substantial progress to be made. This was why he had chosen Amy's as the venue for the meeting; he wanted to see if the food would be able to catalyze the progress of the meeting.
A situation like this had never happened before. However, if word got out that there was an internal strife because of a delicacy, those old bastards would probably die of anger.
Meg merely smiled and didn't say anything, nor did he show any intention of mediating the conflict. He was well aware of Michael's intentions, and in order to get the city lord's castle to hand over the vacant land to the restaurant as soon as possible, the key to the success of the meeting tonight was to be completed.
Just like in his past life, territorial disputes between countries would often come to a stalemate, especially when both sides were more or less equally powerful. In a situation like this, a different approach was required.
"Uncle Bat, you were just arguing with the other uncles, and now you're arguing with each other again. Who's the enemy and who's the friend?" Amy asked curiously after looking at them for a long while.
Everyone immediately fell silent as they looked at the people sitting across from them, then at their own brethren, and peculiar expressions appeared on their faces.
Yabemiya brought out a bowl of tofu pudding and placed it in front of everyone, but no one made a move.
