In the morning, Kimura Muyang shook his head as he realized that he was drunk again last night! He almost couldn’t believe that he has always drunk by himself in his previous life.

Although he could hold his liquor, he would get drunk eventually with almost everyone aside from the Captain asking for a toast, especially Hiyori, who kept challenging to a drinking contest.

However, what surprised Kimura Muyang was Hikifune Kirio’s top-notch skill in cooking. Kimura Muyang never doubted her skill as a Shinigami since she was a Captain, but she also turned out to be a talented cook as she cooked all the food herself, leaving Kimura Muyang drooling.

“You’re finally up, li’l Yangyang!” Hikifune Kirio’s voice welcomed Kimura Muyang as soon as he opened the door, followed by an appetizing aroma that stirred Kimura Muyang’s belly.

“Li’l Yangyang!?”

Although he liked the smell of the food that Hikifune Kirio cooked, he couldn’t say the same about the nickname she came up with.

“Kirio-san, can you please refrain from calling me with that nickname?”

Even though he was touched that his Captain went so far as to even serve him breakfast, he just couldn’t like that nickname she gave him. Then again, the food in front of him was really mouth-watering. Even though he wasn’t a big eater, he couldn’t resist the temptation of such delicious food.

There was a trace of smile on Hikifune Kirio’s face before she said: “Ah, is that so? Alright then.” She then walked away, bringing the food with her.

Seeing Hikifune Kirio listened to him for once, he was so happy yet confused at the same time. As he saw her taking away the food with her, he hurriedly asked: “Why are you taking away all the food, Kirio-san?”

Hikifune Kirio then looked back at Kimura Muyang with a smile, “Well, I cooked these for li’l Yangyang, not for Lieutenant Kimura.” She deliberately said li’l Yangyang and Lieutenant Kimura louder.

The corner of Kimura Muyang’s mouth slightly twitched. He realized that Hikifune Kirio was trying to bribe him with food.

“Kirio-san, you are still…” Kimura Muyang waved his hand to show that he wouldn’t be tempted by food.

“That’s too bad. I plan to cook for li’l Yangyang every day, but if he doesn’t want it, there’s nothing I can do.” Hikifune Kirio pretended to look sad.

“Oh, Lieutenant Kimura, did you say something?” Suddenly Hikifune Kirio said with a curious look on her face, but it was clear what she wanted.

“That’s…” Kimura Muyang was in a dilemma. He knew he shouldn’t be tempted by food, but being able to eat delicious foods like last night is another story.

Seeing Kimura Muyang’s conflicted look, Hikifune Kirio knew he fell to it hook, line, and sinker. However, she kept a poker face, so Kimura Muyang didn’t suspect anything.

“Uhh… I mean, it’s not like you can’t. I mean, you’re the Captain, anyway.” Kimura Muyang said awkwardly. He has never tasted anything more delicious than the food he ate last night, and in order to be able to taste that kind of delicacy every day, he no longer cared if he had to swallow his pride.

“However, only when there’s nobody around.” Kimura Muyang named his condition. The thought of others hearing him being called with that ridiculous nickname made him shudder.

“Relax, relax, only li’l Yangyang and me will ever hear about this. It’s our little secret!” Hikifune Kirio said as he winked at Kimura Muyang, sending a zap of electricity throughout his body.

Hikifune Kirio’s teasing words made Kimura Muyang imagine some indecent things in his mind, which led to his silly grin.

“What are you thinking about, li’l Yangyang?”

Kimura Muyang snapped back from his fantasy and saw Hikifune Kirio’s smile in front of him. Obviously, he’d be in trouble if he told the truth, so he made up an excuse.

“Ah, I was just  thinking how blessed I am to be able to eat your home cooking every day!” Kimura Muyang said as soon as he took the food back from Hikifune Kirio.

If Hikifune Kirio knew what he was thinking just now, she would kill him in the spot for sure.

Seeing how honest Kimura Muyang was, Hikifune Kirio chuckled. She loved to cook, so she was so happy if someone appreciated her cooking.

Kimura Muyang immediately shoved the food into his throat like no tomorrow.

“Kirio-san, I am so happy!”

Kimura Muyang finished his food in no time and burped. This definitely set a new record as he has never eaten that fast before. It was incomparable to the food he ate with Kimura Kazuya.

Hikifune Kirio smiled proudly. Nothing made her happier than people appreciating her cooking.

“Now that you have eaten your fill, hurry to the training ground. I made an exception today since you were drunk last night, but keep in mind there won’t be any more exceptions in the future!”

Having said that, Hikifune Kirio stood up. However, before she left through the door, she stopped for a brief moment, as if she just remembered something, and then said, “ah, I almost forgot. Be a dear and do the dishes, okay?”

Hikifune Kirio then left without even giving Kimura Muyang the time to react. Kimura Muyang was speechless as he still had to do the same chore as he did during his stay with Kimura Kazuya even after he became a Lieutenant now.

However, Kimura Muyang just obediently picked up the dirty plates. As long as he could taste the delicious food that Hikifune Kirio cooked every day, he didn’t mind.

Hikifune Kirio left with a triumphant smile on her face. Hiyori never wanted to do the dishes, but now she had someone to do that in her place. Although she loved cooking and eating, she was not a fan of washing the dishes.

Kimura Muyang didn’t realize that he fell right into the tempting Onee-san’s scheme.
