Chapter 80 Last Meal
Shi Tian was dumbfounded when he once again heard another mention of Ancient Technology.
Previously when he was at the Horology Restaurant, there was a guy named Edwin that had also mentioned Ancient Technology and instantly attracted everyone\'s attention.
Just what was so special about Ancient Technology?
While eating, Vanessa saw his dazed look- the same look he had when she first mentioned the potions.
"Seriously, just where did you come from? A rock?" Vanessa asked curiously, making a reference to the fictional monkey king that was born from a rock and knew absolutely nothing about the world.
"Ahem, it\'s more like I\'m just a mere commoner with barely any experience that you high-class people know." Shi Tian faked a cough and gave a half-hearted excuse.
Vanessa sighed softly and decided to be generous after thinking about how he gave her the potion to recover.
Who told her to be this nice in general?
"Ancient Technology is basically a term used to describe the items that were dropped alongside the monsters that came to this world 132 years ago. No one truly knows the origin of these items, but one thing was for certain. Their power and usage were beyond our scope of understanding. Even now, not a single person could replicate the items or produce similar effects." Vanessa said in a solemn tone.
Shi Tian was silent, seemingly in deep thought. \'So Ancient Technology is technically a cheat item in general. And they are from the same source of the monsters that had ravaged our world.\'
If he was to consider this, then it wasn\'t weird for people to be crazed to explore to obtain Ancient Technology for themselves.
Quickly finishing up a few bits of his own food, Shi Tian then stood up, ready to head to bed and sleep.
Meanwhile, Vanessa was dumbstruck to see him going to rest.
\'The heck?\' She exclaimed in shock. Clearly, she had revealed the fact that she was someone with Ancient Technology in her inventory. Yet not only did he not enquire what it was, he also didn\'t even bother to ask for a glance.
"Are you not curious about my Ancient Technology?" She asked, unable to withhold her curiosity.
"There is some curiosity, but not enough for me to pry further. Just finish your food and throw it in the trash can afterward. I\'m exhausted and you should still rest despite being recovered. There is a guest room on the far left side, so you can sleep there instead of the couch." Shi Tian yawned and waved his hand, entering his bedroom.
Seeing him enter the bedroom, Vanessa chuckled softly in disbelief. As hateful as he was and how he constantly fooled her, she was still in awe at how indifferent he was.
Who would be able to stay indifferent when Ancient Technology was practically a heavenly-defying item that could alter the structure of the world?
"Ugh, whatever. This bastard is always unpredictable, changing face faster than changing clothes." Vanessa shook her head and refused to brood over the matter.
Instead, she finished off her food before going to the guest room that Shi Tian directed. It was truly a hectic day for her today, and she wished to get some rest despite being fully recovered from the potion\'s effect already.
Time slowly passed by, and morning soon arrived after a long and tedious night they had experienced.
When Vanessa got out of the guest room, she noticed Shi Tian\'s presence was gone. As an Esper class person, her sense of detection was quite wide, so she could tell that Shi Tian was no longer in the home even if she didn\'t personally see him.
\'Where did he go?\' Vanessa wondered silently.
Though her question was quickly answered within a few minutes later.
Shi Tian had returned, and in his hand was holding a bag of food.
"You went to get breakfast?" Vanessa asked in a surprised tone.
"Yeah, only for my portion." Shi Tian responded swiftly. He then placed the food on the diner table under her resentful gaze.
Clearly, she was mad and irritated that he went out to buy breakfast but didn\'t get it for her as well.
Wasn\'t it a basic courtesy to buy for someone else if they are living with you in the same house temporarily?
Like even if he was displeased or wary of her, he could have at least still bought some food for her? She wasn\'t that broke and could still afford to pay him back.
"You are really a bastard," Vanessa clicked her tongue and complained, getting herself ready to head out and buy her own food.
However, she quickly paused when she saw the type of food Shi Tian had brought. There were a total of five take-out boxes. Each of the take-out boxes was huge as well.
And before she could even speak out, she saw Shi Tian opening one of the take-out boxes. She was instantly dumbfounded to see the content was actually Minasarus meat.
\'He actually remembered?\' She was astonished to see him actually recall her talking about this particular meat when she only casually mentioned it.
Her stomach quickly betrayed her and she was starting to drool upon the sight of the Minasarus meat.
Shi Tian snickered at that sight, prompting Vanessa to wipe the drool off her mouth.
"Hmph, you are truly wicked." She spat, ready to leave the house so that she won\'t be forced to watch him gloat around.
"Oh? You\'re leaving huh. Then I suppose that I\'ll have to eat this Minasarus meat all by myself." Shi Tian said calmly.
"Tsk, just why are you always taunting me?" Vanessa clicked her tongue and asked. She couldn\'t understand him a bit. One moment he was so caring about her, but the next moment, he was so rude and always taunting her.
"Then why are you always so rude and always cursing at me?"
"Wasn\'t it because of your conduct?"
"Conduct?" Shi Tian shook his head and chuckled softly.
"I\'m already being quite lenient for someone who was practically duped into rescuing a stranger and got dragged into some muddy water. Now, go wash your hands and eat. Your last meal that is."
