Gaming Sword Magician

Chapter 56: Cafeteria.

The second method was to cook food, but ever since his birth, Whittaker hasn't shown any interest in cooking, so he didn't know how to cook food. He could learn but that will take time.

The second method has failed to impress or attract Whittaker attention, miserably!

The last method to acquire food was to go to the cafeteria, which was far away, has good food but it's pricey. 'Never the less, I have enough money to purchase 1-star food.' he thought.

The cafeteria closes sharp at 8:45.pm, so Whittaker didn't have much time left. The cafeteria was far away and he had to run at his fastest to reach the cafeteria before it closes.

Hence, some people witnessed a short young boy whisking through the winding path of the Academy grounds to reach the cafeteria.

Twelve minutes later, Whittaker reached the staircase that connected to the cafeteria. Trees and colorful flowers decorated each side of the staircase, and tall grasses enriched the nearby landscape. He was breathing rapidly to catch up with his breath.

As he was walking up to that place, he saw three people in front of him. Two females and one male. The male seemed to be older than 18 and he was talking to the brunette.

His appearance attracted the attention of the three upperclassmen, but two of them continued with their chat in excitement. When teenage blonde Patricia turned to look at him she was given a surprise attack.

'How could such a cute little hamster even exist in this world? Can I keep him as a pet, but then I will be punished for kidnapping a living human!' She declined her insightful and dangerous thoughts.

After walking up to him, she patted his soft head and pinched his cheeks, and asked, "Little cutie, what are you doing here so late at night?"

Whittaker didn't decline her touch as this lady was really pretty and has enchanted his heart.

The pretty sister was a head taller than him. She was wearing a skirt and black stocking that went well with her pale skin, this sister has a charming feel about her. Also, it attracted Whittaker, who has been immune to such feelings.

Starting back into her deep brown eyes, he replied, "I came here to eat!"

Her knee-length, lank, blonde hair fluttered with the wind as she replied, "Oh, so you came here to eat! But little cutie, you came a little late, the cafeteria is already closed for the day, so come by tomorrow, and I will cook a free meal for you." Patricia was a 2nd-year student working in the cafeteria to improve her craft.

She wanted to feed the boy, but today, a competition was going to be held between Magic Chef Jennifer and Senior Christopher Nolan, and she was the judge. They are the two people chatting behind her. Bringing this little hamster might annoy them, and she really didn't want to cause a commotion or disturbance, hence she suppressed her heartfelt feeling while facing Whittaker, who still hasn't utilized his legendary ability "Puppy eyes", otherwise it would have been a done deal.

"Ah, the cafeteria is already closed!" Whittaker sighed in disappointment. His eyes dropped low in sadness and the two girls found it cute. The cafeteria and the food court was already closed, and he didn't know how to cook, 'how will I eat today!' he thought in distress and turned around to leave when a voice called out from behind.

"Hey, underclassman, stop! Meals on us." Christopher Nolan exclaimed to the boy who was going away with shoulder dropped low in disappointment.

Whittaker turned to look at him with the biggest eyes he could ever make, Jennifer and Patricia felt the sweet taste of cuteness overload. He walked up to them, as only these three could cook a meal for him at this time of the day.

Pointing at the closed iron shutter of the cafeteria, Christopher continued. "Let's go inside."

"Senior, you sure?" Jennifer asked, and Patricia had the same question in her heart.

Christopher nods and replies, "Since we are going to hold a competition and decide whose dish is better than this boy can judge with Patricia. Jennifer, you have no issue with my decision, right?"

Whittaker glanced at the sister who will decide his fate today. Jennifer has an angular face with a square jaw, a narrow nose, small ears, rosy cheeks, and thin lips, but she looked like a dangerous person to Whittaker.

It's because of her piercing.

She has many piercings on her face. The most eyes catching ones were in her nasal septum, three in her left eyebrow, and four in her right ear and he saw one more on her tongue as she opened her thin lips to talk. 

Jenny glanced at Whittaker and thought,

'From the looks of his behavior and actions, the boy seemed humble and innocent, so he will judge fairly and without any subtle wicked intentions.' Making up her mind, she replied to Christopher, "I guess it's okay to let him be the judge."

"Yea!" It wasn't Whittaker, but Patricia, who was more excited than the boy in question.

Christopher gently looks at the surprised Whittaker and says, "Is it fine with you, little one?"

Christopher was 6.9", so Whittaker was like a dwarf in comparison. That's why him saying "Little one" didn't feel wrong to Whittaker.

Christopher was wearing a hand strap that identifies him as a 3-star Magic chef. No one is gonna decline free food from a 3-star chef, especially Whittaker, who will eat free food no matter what it's rank.

"Yes... Yes, it's absolutely fine!" Whittaker eagerly replied to the handsome brother. The man wasn't handsome and he could be considered a man of average looks, but Whittaker judges a person based on their attitude, behaviors, nature, and looks. 

Christopher has topped the chart of the first three. 

The group of four went up to the closed gate of the Cafeteria. The automatic shutter of the cafeteria was sealed shut, but it opened in a second as Christopher Nolan swiped his ID card on the slot of the card reader.

They went inside!
