- To thank us for helping out in Tenhoukaku over a week, Miki Nikaidou wanted to prepare us a dinner in person
- She cannot eat anymore. Even a blackhole can be filled up
Looking at Ichihime, I struggled a little bit before cooking her another dinner, only to see her throwing all the food into the "blackhole" again.
Now that should be enough, right? I cleaned up the dishes again and thought about it.
[player]Ichihime, was the dinner enough for you?
[Ichihime]Nyaa? Ichihime has not have any dinner yet.
[player]You just had your third dinner!
[Ichihime]Nyaa?! Impossible! Master must be lying, nyaa!
[player]Look at all these uncleaned dishes. They are all here because of you.
[Ichihime]Nyaa! But Ichihime doesn't remember having any dinner at all!
The look on her face was genuine. I didn't think she was lying, but I had never encountered such a problem. So I sent Wanjirou a message hoping that we could find a solution together.
A couple of minutes later, I saw a plump figure at the door, sweating and gasping.
Wanjirou
[Wanjirou]*Heavy breathing*... W-what happened to Ichihime?
[player]Ichihime always said she didn't have dinner, but I saw her eating multiple meals... She didn't seem to be lying either. Could there be something wrong with her?
[Wanjirou]That's not good... But thinking again, Ichihime was all good until she went to that woman's place. Could it be that she ate something poisonous?
Wanjirou's suggestion was exactly what I guessed. Given Miki Nikaidou's "superb" cooking skills, I wouldn't be surprised if Ichihime became poisoned.
[Ichihime]Yawn——————
While we were discussing, Ichihime took a long yawn and fell asleep on the table. She probably had too much food and all the blood went to her stomach.
[player]No other problems are found at this stage. I say we let her sleep and check again tomorrow.
Wanjirou looked at the already drooling Ichihime, nodded to my suggestion.
The next day
I was woken up by Wanjirou's multiple calls in the early morning. When I entered Ichihime's room, I saw Wanjirou and her sitting face to face. Ichihime was pouring some tea, while Wanjirou looked desperate.
Ichihime... looked fine. Completely normal. Did she recover or not?
[Ichihime]Master, here you are, nyaa! Let Ichihime get you some tea.
She didn't mention the dinner, so hopefully she is fine now.
I took the cup of tea from Ichihime. It was just the right temperature - neither too hot nor cold. When I finished the tea and handed back the cup, she raised her head and glanced at me.
[Ichihime]Master, here you are, nyaa! Let Ichihime get you some tea.
As she spoke, Ichihime handed me another cup of tea.//nI felt very lost and took it blankly, drank it blankly and returned the cup blankly.
[player]What's this...
[Ichihime]Master, here you are, nyaa! Let Ichihime get you some tea.
Before I could speak, Ichihime handed me another cup of tea.
[Wanjirou]Just drink it. I have already had three pots of tea and really can't drink anymore.
[Ichihime]Master, don't you like Ichihime's tea?
Ichihime looked confused as I hadn't taken the cup she offered. I had no choice but to finish it again.
[player]Wanjirou, this must stop. We need to make Ichihime realize what's going on.
[Wanjirou]Do you think I don't want to do that?
[Ichihime]Master, here you are, nyaa! Let Ichihime get you some tea.
While I discussed possible solutions with Wanjirou, Ichihime had been pouring tea for me non-stop. Soon, she finished a pot of water. I immediately stopped her from boiling more water.
[player]Ichihime, do you know that you are suffering from amnesia right now?
[Ichihime]Nyaa? Amnesia? What's that?
[player]Amnesia is memory loss... For example, you have just made me a tea, but when I finish it, you would forget and pour me another cup.
[Ichihime]Really? But Ichihime doesn't recall anything at all, nyaa...
[player]Because you lose your memories every now and then!
[Ichihime]Okay... Ichihime somewhat understands it.
I finally got her to understand the seriousness of her problem and didn't have to drink tea again. I gave Wanjirou a thumbs up, only to get a disdainful look in return and hear Ichihime's voice again.
[Ichihime]Master, here you are, nyaa! Let Ichihime get you some tea.
…………//nAre you a goldfish?!!//nBut one thing I know is, if I don't think of a solution quickly, I soon will be drowned in tea.
