[The God of Love Amora would love to adopt you, but she's afraid to do so since it would be the same as waging war against Lady Vanitas, which she surely couldn't handle] Evangeline portrayed Lady Amora's thoughts.
Goddammit...That woman doesn't want to act as my mother and doesn't want to let anyone else do it as well...Just what kind of grudge does she have with me?
"What's wrong, Kafka? Why are you looking at the ceiling like that?...Do you want me to on the ceiling fan?" Camila asked when she saw me looking up at the heavens, to which I shook my head. "If it's nothing, then stop staring up in a daze and quickly eat your breakfast before it gets cold."
"And while you eat as much as you can, I'll start packing the extra food so that I can take it to the park and feed the doggies there."
Camila got up from her seat to get some containers from the counter, but I didn't let her do so and pulled her back down to her seat, and said,
"You can go to the park to play with the puppies if you want to, but you won't be bringing any of this food with you since I'm going to be finishing it all myself and you're going to sit here and watch me do it."
"We'll see about that, Kafka." Camila said with the corner of her lips curled up as she looked at the mountain of food on the table. "Whether you're going to finish everything here and prove me wrong, or you're going to help me carry all this food back to the park where we can both play with the cute little doggies there."
"I'm perfectly fine with going on a park date with you, Camila..." I said, which made her realise that she was basically inviting me on our first date, which made her feel shy. "...But unfortunately, the dogs over there won't be getting a crumb of anything on this table, so I think it's better if we stop by a deli and get some fresh meat for them."
"Hmph! We'll see about that!~" Camila harumphed as she watched me take another bite of her rissoto.
And then two more big ones, which were enough to finish off the entire thing in a matter of seconds, to Camila's surprise.
I then moved onto the other dishes on my plate, like the pasta, curry, and enchiladas, and threw them all into my mouth and munched down on all of them, while having a satisfied look on my face and a look in my eyes that made it seem like I was going to orgasm at the taste of her dishes.
"Idiots...Absolute idiots, both your husband and daughter are for ignoring such delicious food and taking it for granted." I scolded her family and picked up a full plate of noodles from the side, while Camila was shocked at the speed at which I was eating, like I was sucking in all the food into my mouth.
"Really?~...You have such a big appetite to the point you can finish a meal for a family of 10 in one sitting?" Camila gasped when I revealed the truth about my hunger, which was insatiable. "Do you normally eat this much for every meal?"
"I try to, as without this basic amount of food, I feel hungry and dizzy wherever I go. And sometimes I even get a bit shaky if I don't take in a certain amount of food every day."
I said to her surprise, which was all true, as even though this body of mine had superior senses and abilities compared to the average human due to me being the son of a God, it also had high energy consumption levels to compensate and balance for it.
And it was especially my brain that seemed to need the most amount of energy supplied to it, as I always seemed to get headaches whenever I didn't eat as much and always feasted during every meal so that I could prevent that aching sensation in my head.
I guess with great power come great consequences as well...But I don't really mind the consequences I face since I just have to eat a lot of food, which is conveniently something that I really enjoy.
"Wow~ Wouldn't that mean that you would be a nightmare to all the all-you-can-eat buffets out there?" Camila asked in amazement at the sheer gluttony I possessed while watching me speed through the last of the plates on the dining table.
"Funny that you would ask that, as back in my hometown, the restaurant committee over there, which was basically the union for all the restaurants in town, sent my picture to every single restaurant that had a buffet service, so that they could guard against me and kick me out if I tried to come in." I said, remembering the dark day when I was a child where I couldn't take advantage of the buffet system anymore to satiate my hunger, since they had gotten wary of me after demolishing several buffets across town after the owners had enough of watching me eat their profits away.
I also only targeted rather well-off restaurants, so I had no guilt while going on my eating rampage.
"Well, I guess I should warn the restaurant owners in this town to close down their buffet service, unless they want their business to go into debt because of your overwhelming gluttony~" Camila laughed when she thought of me wrecking havoc in this town's restaurant scene while passing me the plates on the other side of the table.
She then seemed to have realised something when she saw all the plates stacked up, looked at me, and asked with a gasp,
"Wait!...If you're saying that you always eat this much for every meal, then does that not mean I have to cook so much food for you three times a day in the future?"
"N-No, you really don't have to, as it would be quite the burden for you to make so much food, which would take so much time and effort, so I'll just handle making it myself like usual since I usually just make a large batch of one dish, which is much easier for me and something I'm used to, even though it's quite tiring and bland for my taste to eat so much of the same dish in one sitting."
I said with a wry smile on my face, as I could understand why Camila was so scared at the thought of making such a feast for me every day since the one she made today itself took her all morning, so I could only imagine how hard it would be to do the same every day.
