Sean had experienced countless life-and-death battles on the battlefield and crawled out from piles of corpses. Compared to Josh, who had never left Rodu, he had sacrificed a lot for the throne.
As someone who didn't like spicy food, he was almost about to faint in the face of such terrifying spiciness. He clenched his fists so tightly that his fingernails dug deeply into his flesh. His eyes had also turned red, but he could only repress the urge to cry out.
Was this level of spiciness really something that humans could tolerate? Why was Father able to enjoy it so much? Or did Josh get that chef to add more spicy food to mess with him?
Countless questions flashed through Sean's mind, and he was struck by a murderous urge.
Just as he thought that this spiciness was going to last for a long time, the numbness in his lips and tongue began to dissipate, and the delectable taste of the fish began to soothe his numb mouth. The crispy fish skin, the tender fish meat, and there wasn't even a single bone in the fish. The deliciousness hidden within the spiciness was so incredible that it had broken through the blockade of the spiciness and struck directly at his soul.
It was as if rain had suddenly descended upon a desert that had been parched for thousands of years. This was an indescribable feeling, but it also successfully suppressed the spiciness.
His throat moved a little, and he swallowed the fish.
The fish meat was like scorching lava that had just been scooped out of an active volcano. The spiciness slowly slid down his throat, and it was as if a ball of fire had been ignited within his body. The twisting and convulsing of his stomach made him feel rather uncomfortable, and the spiciness in his mouth gradually returned, as if there were countless tiny ants gnawing on his flesh.
His rationality told him that it was best not to touch the fish again, but he couldn't help but pick up a second piece of fish meat with his chopsticks and place it into his mouth.
The delicious fish meat successfully suppressed the spiciness, but what followed was an even more spicy experience, and this feeling could only be suppressed by eating another piece of fish meat.
Sean suddenly understood what Josh meant when he said that he couldn't stop eating the spiciness!
He couldn't stop even if he wanted to!
However, Josh didn't seem to be doing much better than him. His face was flushed, and he was sweating profusely, but he was also unable to stop eating.
"Looks like the two princes can't stop eating. Is this spicy grilled fish really that delicious?"
"Indeed. The two princes really are true people to be so immersed in delicious food."
When the ministers saw this scene, they were all surprised.
The two princes had always been very cautious in front of others. Who would have thought that they would be eating in such an unpretentious manner in the palace? In fact, they even appeared to be in a slightly disheveled state. This was quite surprising, and it was clear that the spicy grilled fish was extremely delicious.
"Hu!"
The forest troll representative opened his mouth and spat out a ball of flame, which landed on his leg and set it ablaze. Fortunately, Richard, who was sitting to the side, had quick reflexes and raised his hand to extinguish the fire with a water ball spell.
"This small fish is really delicious, but the spiciness is really not simple. Even I have learned how to breathe fire." The forest troll put down the bowl in its hand with lingering fear. Only the main bone of the grilled fish was left, and its originally withered yellow body had turned dark red. It was a rather comical sight.
"It's indeed very delicious, especially this hot and spicy feeling. It's really awesome!"
The abyssal demon's skin was also covered with a layer of faint red, and it wore an excited expression as it ate mouthful after mouthful of fish.
"Looks like aside from the spiciness, it's pretty good." Irina nodded in agreement. She picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks and dipped it in the red broth. She blew on it before carefully placing it into her mouth.
The spicy broth made the tip of her tongue and lips feel slightly numb. This was a very special feeling, as if someone had suddenly pinched the tip of her tongue, causing her to temporarily lose some of her senses.
Immediately thereafter, the delicious flavor of the fish began to wreak havoc in her mouth and on the tip of her tongue.
The crispy skin of the fish was crispy but not charred, and the flesh beneath the skin was extraordinarily tender and bouncy. The fragrant and spicy broth soaked through the flesh of the fish, and the spicy and tangy texture whetted her appetite.
After swallowing the fish, she felt as if a ball of warm fire was slowly flowing down her throat into her body, warming her stomach and body, giving her a sense of comfort and enjoyment.
Vivian didn't really like eating fish as she always had no way to deal with the small fish bones, and the feeling of having something stuck in her throat was very uncomfortable.
However, to her surprise, there were no small fish bones in that piece of fish, only fresh and tender flesh.
"Is it a fish without any fish bones?" Irina's eyes lit up as she picked up another piece of fish and placed it into her mouth. The fish melted almost immediately in her mouth, and there were also no small fish bones. Instead, there was only a fragrant and spicy texture.
"It's a little numb and spicy, but it's not as bad as what they're saying, is it? Could it be that I actually have a talent for eating spicy food? " Irina took a peculiar glance at Josh and Sean before placing another piece of fish into her mouth. Her eyes narrowed slightly as a blissful smile appeared on her face. "But this grilled fish really is delicious! The spicy texture paired with the fresh and tender flesh of the fish doesn't feel greasy at all! "
"No one can resist Father's cooking; it's just that delicious." Amy picked up a piece of fish with her chopsticks and placed it into her mouth as she swayed from side to side with an elated smile on her face.
Father really is super awesome; anyone who eats his cooking will fall in love with it.
Duke Abraham gulped down his saliva as he looked on. There was no way he could eat the grilled fish, and he thought to himself, After this banquet, I'm definitely going to get that chef to make a separate set of braised chicken and rice and spicy grilled fish for me!
"All three dishes are extremely popular with His Majesty; looks like the best dish of the banquet has already been crowned."
"Isn't that so? His Highness really has a sharp eye for talent. Speaking of which, that little girl looks so adorable when she's eating; which family is she from? "
"I heard that Master Crassus recently accepted a half-elf disciple; it's most likely her."
"I heard that Master Crassus took his disciple to the Magus Tower to wreak havoc yesterday. His disciple broke the Magus Tower's tower ascension record and beat President Richard's disciple to tears."
"That woman is truly terrifying!"
All of the officials were discussing quietly among themselves, and their gazes toward Amy had changed significantly.
By the time the king put down his chopsticks, he had already eaten more than half of the spicy grilled fish, but the strong sense of satiety still forced him to repress the urge to finish the rest of the grilled fish.
He accepted a handkerchief from a waiter and wiped his hands and mouth before looking up at the sweaty Josh and Sean, who were still munching on the grilled fish without a care in the world, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Josh and Sean seemed to have sensed the king's gaze, and their expressions changed slightly as they put down their chopsticks in unison. At this point, only the head of the grilled fish remained in front of them.
As soon as they stopped, cold sweat began to appear on Josh and Sean's foreheads. The numbness in their lips and the scorching sensation in their throats immediately surged forth, and the scorching sensation made them want to pick up the plate of grilled fish in front of them and take a sip of the spicy soup.
