Lou is about to get rest disturb by a single call from his phone, well the caller is none other than Touka.
It seems that she is currently standing outside of the gate waiting for Lou to let her and the other two following her to enter.
Lou looks at the clock and sees that it's already midnight, and this girl is actually still outside, did she know that it's pretty dangerous walking outside in the middle of the night?
He then walks outside to see her but to his surprise, Touka is not alone, there are two people following her.
It's Hinami and Ryouko, the Fueguchi mother and daughter duo, and it seems they come here in full gear.
After all, Lou can see their luggage beside them, and it seems they also accept Lou's offer for them.
"We come," Toika said.
"I know,I can see, don't worry I'm not sleepy or dazed." Lou reply.
"Sorry for bothering, it seems we disturb your sleeping time," Fueguchi politely bow, while Hinami's shy gaze at Lou then looks into the ground trying to hide something.
"Don't worry, come in," Lou takes them inside because Lou doesn't know how to recess a guest, he just takes them to the Coffee Shop.
Touka and Ryouko look around, they like the design of teh shop, it looks Mediterranean old design but you can feel the elegant atmosphere around.
Louwalk to the counter and made them a coffee, he said," SIt down, you can ask me anything that you don't know about the contract."
"So this is the shop that you were talking about last time," Touka said.
"Yes, my mother is the only one taking care of all of this, of course, I want to get some employees but, well Mom likes to do everything so I let her do what she wants."
"Based on the contract you want us to be the waiter of your shop right?" Touka asked.
"Yes, if possible you can also assist my mom whenever she needed,"
"But this is a Luxury Shop, I don't know if we can work ehre properly," Ryouko said after looking around.
"No, this is not a Luxury Shop, the only customer of this shop is usually a white-collar worker and some rich kids from a nearby school."
Lou then passes a drink for them, Coffee for Touka, Special Tea for Ryouko, and Hot Milk for Hinami.
The three girls have different reactions seeing the drink Lou gives to them, Ryouko attentively asked," Is this a test for us?"
"Nope, this is into a test, this is just a simple experiment," Lou said.
"As you can see there's 3 different drinks in front of you, all of them are made by me using Alchemist to see if I can make you drink different drinks without letting you taste that horrible taste."
"Is this the same as the Candy you gave us last time?" Touka asked,
"That's right, so don't worry, i will not poison you… but i don't guarantee the taste for you… after all, I'm the only person who tastes these drinks."
Touka takes the cup of coffee and takes a sip, she said." A brighter acidity, medium body and notes of brown sugar and subtle fruitiness"
Ryouko takes and sip a little bit, she is surprised that this one is excellent, she always drinks coffee and tastes different flavors and brands of it.
But this is different, this coffee is like a fruity coffee, a subtle taste of fruitiness with a mild taste of brown sugar.
Hinami also tasted it and she felt that this one is more delicious than the Manager's regular coffee that he gave to them.
Touka then takes the Tea and takes a sip, the first thing that comes to his mouth is the taste of nature that she never tastes in her whole life.
"T-This!! What kind of Tea is this? It's so refreshing, it's not taste bitter like what is written on the book that I read," Touka confusedly asked while looking at pale golden brown tea in front of her.
"Combination of herbs and tea leaves that I get in a faraway place," Lou said.
Ryouko took a sip and said," Not only that I can feel that the task is producing a cooling feeling when it comes to your stomach."
"Well, the herb that i use is an Ice Element Property herb while the Tea is a special tea to the Northern Region,"
Both girls like the tea, it's refreshing and the college effect is a good effect, but it's not good enough like the coffee that they taste.. They will take it in the summer days.
Touka then takes the last drink, a Milk with white shining like color that she doesn't usually see to the other milk.
"Did you add soothing to this Milk? Why does it look artificial?"
"What artificial, you will know after you taste it," Lou mysteriously said.
Touka looks at Lou and takes a sip, she suddenly becomes fazed after tasting the milk.
Ryouko looked at Touka and confusedly asked," What's the matter? Is it bad?"
"Taste it, you will know why I suddenly daze," Touka carefully passed the cup of milk to her like passing a treasure.
Ryouko looks at the milk, it's not different like the other milk but the thing is, the milk looks artificial like in commercials.
She then takes a sip and dazes for a second, she now understands why Touka's reaction is like that.
Lou took a plate of cookies and put it in front of them, he said," Now let the experiment begin, can you please take a bite of these cookies?"
Touka takes a piece of cookie and takes a bite without any second thought, she wants to know if her thought is right.
She bites it and slowly chews it, she is waiting to taste that grass and distressful taste that she usually tastes.
But it's different today, she actually tastes the chocolate flavor of the cookie, not only that she can also taste the nuts that add into it.
"It seems you discovered it now," Lou said while smiling at her.
"T-This?." Touka can't believe what she experiences, she thought that she was only dreaming but it's true, she can taste the food like normal humans can.
"That's the first gift from me fro you guys, a normal sense of taste like normal human, you can now eat normal food that you usually don't consume,"
"But take note, the effect is not permanent, you need to drink these three drinks every 3 days or else your tongue will go back to its original function."
Ryouko, Toika, and Hinami who confusedly look at Lou, the other two know how much help this thing can give them for now on.
