Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 161 161



Tenku was surprised when he saw Setsuka taking out a picnic mat and a large food basket. His reaction wasn't because the girl could take out big things from her small pouch. Tenku knew that it was Setsuka's space pocket.

It was indeed worth a lot of money for Tenku but nothing for the daughter of the head of Fuyushima Temple. He was surprised that Setsuka had prepared everything like he had planned a picnic at Lake Motosu.

"Did you prepare all this?" Tenku looked at Setsuka and asked.

Setsuka nodded slightly and didn't dare to look at Tenku directly. She had two reasons for acting like that. First, she was embarrassed to show her face after Tenku had seen her panties. Second, Setsuka made all the food for him by pouring her heart out.

When she thought about that, Setsuka blushed, and her face reddened. Because of that, she didn't dare to look at Tenku.

"Yes! Big sister made it for you!" Kohana added excitedly.

"Kohana!" Setsuka looked at her little sister and glared. Kohana's words made Setsuka blush even more.

Tenku was a bit surprised when he heard that. He didn't know if what Kohana said was true or not. But certainly, Setsuka had prepared everything for today.

"Thank You. In that case, let me help with the preparations." Tenku said softly. He spread the picnic mat under a large tree near the flower garden. After that, he helped Setsuka take the food out of the basket and served it on the mat.

Tenku was surprised again when he saw the amount of food and drink in the basket. In addition to the large number and variety, it is still warm. It showed the food had just been cooked before being put into the space pocket. Then Tenku fell silent because he thought of something.

(I met them at Tokyo station at seven in the morning. Then when did she make all that food and drink? Did she get up at dawn to get everything ready? I could feel that she was excited about this picnic after I saw all the food and drink)

Tenku pondered when he saw the food and drink served on the mat. He didn't expect that Setsuka was also good at cooking besides being great at fighting. The dishes look delicious and artistic because Setsuka decorates them beautifully to make them look tasty and attractive. While Tenku was deep in thought, Setsuka's voice returned him to his senses.

"What are you thinking by standing still like that? Sit down, please." Setsuka said and patted the seat next to her.

"Yes, big brother. Please sit down, and let's eat now. I'm already feeling so hungry." Kohana added. She rubbed her small belly when she saw food served on the mat.

Even though they live in the same house, Setsuka rarely cooks because a chef makes the food at Fuyushima Temple. But whatever food she makes, it's sure to be delicious, and Kohana likes it.

Unfortunately, Setsuka doesn't have time to cook for her as she is busy with school and organizations. But now, Kohana could see many of the food her sister made, which all looked tasty.

Tenku thought a picnic would be better with a lunch box, but Setsuka served the food on a plate. He knew that Setsuka could easily store everything in the space pocket. But it looks more like they are eating at home than having a picnic. Tenku was confused by Setsuka's intention.

"I understand." Tenku nodded and sat down next to her. Afterward, Setsuka spooned the rice and side dishes into the bowl for him.

"Umm... I can take it myself." Tenku felt awkward when he saw Setsuka treating him like that.

"No. Let me do it for you. You should sit and enjoy your meal." Setsuka smiled and handed him a bowl filled with rice and various side dishes.

"Thank You." Tenku nodded and received the bowl when she saw Setsuka's serious face.

Even though Setsuka looked calm, her blushing face showed she was still embarrassed by the previous incident. She forced herself to look at Tenku and tried to act normal in front of Kohana.

If she avoided eye contact with Tenku, their situation would get awkward, and Setsuka didn't want that to happen. Thus, Tenku also tried to act normal and let Setsuka do whatever she wanted at the picnic. After giving the food to Tenku, Setsuka spooned some rice and dishes for Kohana and herself.

"Let's eat! Itadakimasu!" Kohana couldn't wait to try the food because it looked delicious and made her even more hungry.

"Itadakimasu!" The other two followed her. But before Tenku could eat his food, Setsuka suddenly took some vegetables from one of the side dishes with chopsticks and put them in Tenku's bowl.

"You should also taste this." Setsuka said and blushed.

"Yes, thank you." Tenku smiled gently. He felt a warmth in his heart because of how she treated him. On the other hand, Setsuka didn't eat her food and waited for Tenku to taste it. She wanted to hear his impressions of her cooking. Setsuka hoped that the food she made would suit Tenku's taste.

Tenku tasted one of the side dishes in his bowl and opened his eyes wide. After that, he tried other side dishes and vegetables. Not only does it look attractive and appetizing, but the food also tastes so delicious. Tenku has to admit that Setsuka's food is no less than his deceased mother's.

"It's delicious..." Tenku muttered, and his voice was heard by Setsuka, who kept watching him.

Setsuka felt happy when she heard his words and a beautiful smile bloomed on her face. She was relieved that the food she made matched his taste.

"You also have to try this and this." Setsuka added another dish to his bowl.

"Ah, thank you. I'm sorry that I got too excited about this food." Tenku felt embarrassed because he enjoyed the food too much and forgot about the people around him. It was his first time eating such delicious food apart from his mother's cooking.

"The food my big sister makes is delicious, isn't it?" Kohana suddenly spoke while she was enjoying her food.

"Yes, very delicious. I like it because it suits my taste." Tenku nodded in agreement with her words.

"Thank You." Setsuka smiled, and her heart fluttered when she heard Tenku's praise.

"Why don't you eat your food?" Tenku asked when he saw that the rice and side dishes in Setsuka's bowl had not been touched.

"Ah, yes. I will eat it now. You can enjoy your food again." Setsuka forgot the rice and side dishes in her bowl because she was too immersed in watching Tenku's expression when he tasted the food she made.

Tenku nodded and continued to enjoy his food. Setsuka smiled as she watched the boy eat her food with great gusto. She felt satisfaction and happiness in her heart.

Setsuka took a side dish from her bowl with chopsticks and put it in her little mouth. She ate slowly as her eyes kept focused on Tenku next to her.

"He's not going anywhere, big sister. So you don't have to keep an eye on him." Kohana whispered after she noticed that Setsuka kept staring at Tenku.

"If you tease me again, you can't eat my cooking anymore." Setsuka smiled and threatened her little sister.

"Ah, you can't do that to me! If you forbid me to eat your food, I will complain to big brother. How?" Kohana threatens Setsuka back.

"You! Alright! You can still enjoy it! But you should finish your food first before speaking." Setsuka took a grain of rice at the corner of Kohana's lips.

"Thank you, big sister! I will do whatever I can to make the relationship between you two even closer!" Kohana grinned.

"Thank you, Kohana." Setsuka smiled and kept her eyes on Tenku silently. She didn't know why, but she couldn't take her eyes off the boy for too long, and Setsuka felt so happy when she saw him eating.

Their lunch was over shortly, and all the food was gone. Setsuka felt satisfied because the two people enjoyed the food she made.

"Gochisousama deshita!" Tenku and the others said in unison after they finished their lunch.

"Thank you for the food." Tenku looked at Setsuka and expressed his gratitude to her. His face looks softer than usual.

Even though he was full, he had to finish all the food because Setsuka made it with great effort. In addition, the food and drinks she made were delicious. It would be a shame if Tenku didn't eat it all.

Since his mother died, Tenku has felt that his food for the past nine years has been mediocre. But Setsuka's cooking is completely different and tastes so delicious. It reminded him of his mother.

"You don't need to thank me. I should at least do this for you. Otherwise, I would feel guilty for asking you to accompany Kohana. I'm glad that my cooking suits your taste." Setsuka shook her head and smiled. She was a little surprised because this was the first time she had seen such an expression on his face.

"You are wrong. I enjoyed meeting and playing with Kohana, so you don't have to feel guilty. Therefore, I still have to thank you. Your food is so delicious. I feel lucky to be able to taste it." Tenku stroked Kohana's head gently. The little girl grinned and closed her eyes because she enjoyed Tenku's treatment of her.

"If you like the food I made, I can cook it again for you in the future." Setsuka lowered her head and said in a barely audible voice.

"I can't do it because it will trouble you." Tenku quickly refuses her words.

"No. It didn't bother me at all. I can't do it every day, but I can make meals for you a few times weekly. In return, I want you to see Kohana more often. How?" Setsuka makes an offer to Tenku. If she didn't do that, the boy would refuse her again.

"Is that okay?" Tenku asked in disbelief.

"Of course. I wouldn't say that if I found it troublesome." Setsuka tried to convince Tenku.

"Then I will accept your offer. I have no reason to refuse it." Tenku nodded and agreed with her words. He can eat the food Setsuka made and meet Kohana to relieve his longing for his lost sister. The offer only benefits him and does not harm him.

"That's good! I will make food for you starting tomorrow, and I can only do it three times a week." Setsuka explained. She felt happy because now she had a reason to meet Tenku.

"That's fine with me." Tenku smiled at her. After interacting all day with Setsuka, he felt more familiar with the girl.

"Yay! I can meet big brother more often!" Kohana jumped for joy, and both laughed at her cute antics.
