Li Ke was completely numb.
Although he had been honest with Erina and received her acknowledgment, making him feel that his Erina was excessively mature,
another discovery puzzled him greatly.
What exactly had Erina tasted, and how's the taste?
And so…
"Huh? Just how powerful is the God Tongue?"
Alice looked at Li Ke, who was staring at her guiltily, with a puzzled expression.
The God Tongue that had implicated Erina was gone; now only the problem of Erina's mother remained. However, with Erina's experience, her mother's problem shouldn't be too difficult.
Besides, if Li Ke really wanted to know how powerful the God Tongue was, wouldn't it be better to just ask her sister, Erina, who seemed like a completely different person?
Why ask her?
Despite her doubts, considering the amazing meat Li Ke had brought her, which emitted dozens of different flavors, she naturally answered him.
"You could say it's limitless. How should I put it? It sounds terrifying. Let me put it this way: do you know why Erina has so many sets of kitchenware? It's because if she uses chopsticks that have been used before, even if they were used a month ago and sterilized by high-temperature steaming, Erina can still taste the flavor of her own saliva and the food she ate that day. That's why Erina's chopsticks and other tableware are specially made. This isn't an exaggeration, you should know that, right?"
Ah…
Li Ke thought about it, and it was true. Erina always used a new pair of chopsticks and tableware when she ate!
Seeing his surprised expression, Alice suddenly leaned closer to Li Ke, a mischievous look on her face.
"So, if you want to sneak a bite, you'll have to wait at least three months before seeing Erina again."
Li Ke quickly waved his hand.
"How could that be... But I have to say, this really is the power similar to a curse."
He couldn't help but think of something: when Erina kissed, she was essentially kissing another woman, meaning she knew from the very first day.
And only now has she revealed it... It really is...
"What else could it be?"
Seeing him deep in thought, Alice took the plate of strange meat and left.
Then, half an hour after Li Ke left, she frantically searched for him.
But unfortunately, Li Ke had gone to learn swordsmanship.
However, to Li Ke's surprise, although Erina and Ikumi accepted the outcome, but…
"Although I know this is unavoidable, after all, you made such a boast, it's impossible not to let you out, but expecting you not to cheat on me… I don't have that kind of confidence. After all, I can't always be by your side, and you have such an easily fooled personality, so you better watch out."
Ikumi was simply angry. After all, she had previously planned to stay with Li Ke forever. When Li Ke pinned her down on the table and unleashed his furious onslaught, she had even thought about what the children's names would be. Staying in Li Ke's dormitory without moving out was already her biggest concession.
So—
Li Ke spent half a month without love. It was only when he was about to leave this world and return to the world of 7 Days to Die that Erina and Ikumi's attitude towards him improved significantly, and they even kissed him.
But still, nothing more happened.
Although they all clearly wanted to do it.
————————
"Seriously, it's all wet."
Li Ke sighed and returned to the world of 7 Days to Die, where time resumed its normal flow.
Rias noticed this but said nothing, continuing her magic training, while the other two remained completely unaware of what had happened.
Morning quickly arrived in this world, and the incredibly frustrated Li Ke stood up and began his training.
He hadn't been idle during his days in the Food Wars! world; he had cultivated his own lifestyle and acquired a great deal of learning material.
Truly valuable learning material: a laptop filled with learning materials in various languages, explanations of martial arts techniques, and videos.
He also tested the limits of his time travel abilities.
Living objects couldn't be brought over.
Neither eggs nor puppies could be brought over.
Also, only things he could lift and that came into contact with his body could be brought over. Things like car seats were considered as a single unit.
The underlying principle wasn't clear, but that was basically the rule. This meant that besides a large amount of training materials, he only brought a few solar panels and a large box of food.
With the weighted arm rings from Arad fully activated, Li Ke began training every muscle in his body using the most extreme training methods.
With the tenfold recovery ability in this world, his frantic training didn't cause him fatigue; instead, it allowed him to maintain perfect form throughout his workout.
An ordinary person couldn't even do a single proper pull-up, but with the tenfold recovery and strength, Li Ke could do it all day without getting tired.
Because he didn't intend to gain any more power in this world, Li Ke didn't even add the skill points he earned from missions to his own profile.
He also had no intention of approaching the two newcomers; being perceived as having ill intentions would be troublesome.
However, while he avoided them, the two newcomers couldn't help but observe him.
"Won't this kind of training cause any problems?"
Watching Li Ke, who was carrying at least a ton of iron on his back and diligently doing push-ups, Mai Shiranui couldn't help but ask.
While the training of these martial artists was indeed terrifying, it was always moderate. Furthermore, after acquiring ki, they would meditate to hone their ability to control it. Therefore, only certain special schools, such as the Kyokugenryu style, would subject their bodies to such extreme physical strain.
However, they also had their own secret medicines and special methods of circulating ki to heal their bodies. Without these supporting methods, how could the Kyokugenryu style reach its limits?
Even her own Shiranui-style, which was only considered top-tier in Japan, required many secret medicines and a unique environment unknown to other martial artists and the general public.
Rin Tohsaka, standing nearby, couldn't help but look at Li Ke. She and Mai Shiranui had explored the surrounding illusionary realm together and indeed found many scattered zombies, making them more or less convinced of Li Ke's words.
But, she remained skeptical about the claim that Li Ke could take them home after they had sex.
However, she did offer her answer to Mai Shiranui's doubts.
"He also has magical power within him. He's currently using that strange magical power to amplify his body, allowing him to unleash greater power, so he should be fine. But how much magical power does he have? How can he have so much? And isn't he tired?"
She was actually quite puzzled herself.
"Then, it must be what they call the power bestowed by this world to select a successor. But power that can't be brought back to one's own world is ultimately meaningless."
Mai Shiranui had no interest in the power of this world; she just wanted to return to her own world.
Of course, she wanted to return through other means.
But Rin Tohsaka wasn't in the same mood.
"Yes, it's pointless."
Rin Tohsaka, running her fingers through her hair, hesitated. Should she trust Li Ke, or wait until they established trust and she understood the enemies of this world before seeking a way back?
After all, her time was extremely limited. The Holy Grail War was about to begin in less than a month. If she couldn't return within a month, all her preparations for the Holy Grail War would be wasted!
Shaking her head, Rin Tohsaka chose to continue exploring this place.
"Forget it, let's continue to see what's going on here."
Mai Shiranui and she walked away again, while Li Ke, after training late into the night, took a quick shower and went to find the female merchant again.
Although Rias said she could do it for him, using only her mouth was too slow. The female merchant was much better.
And he could be forceful without complaint or grumbling.
However, when Li Ke got up to use the toilet in the middle of the night, he discovered something astonishing.
The outside is teeming with zombies again.
It's obvious.
The blood moon has come early again.
